MARYLEBONE.-(THIS DAY.)
A very respectable-looking middle-aged man, dressed
deep mourning, whose name was marked in the
police sheet
as James Harper, was brought before Mr. RAWLINSON Under
the following truly painful circumstances:—
Charles Danesbury said he was a bricklayer. On Saturell
evening, in Camden-town, he met the uofortunate individual
now in the dock, walking very hurricdly towards him, wititoto
his hat. He asked witness which was the way to tb_
canal. He informed him, but at the same time determine':
to watch him - closely. After proceeding a sher"
distance he pitched himself on his face into the water, when
witness instantly seized him, and, after a struggle, succeeded
in holding him until a policeman arrived. During this tilne
the unfortunate man frequently exclaimed, •‘ Let me go, let
me go ; I did not murder my wife." Policeman, 99 S,
co
roborated the latter part of the witness's statement. and said
he had much difficulty in endeavouring to take him to tits
station-house.
Mr. RAWLINSON addressed the accused, and asked his me:
tive for thus acting ? In reply, he commenced a detail 01
private suff ling!, which, from his sobbing and emotion, wag
:almost inaudible—it couldbe understood from him, howeve':,
that his wife held died some three months hack. and this ,wa-
tation. coupled with reitnikry embarrassm.:,:its, had tends
o unsettle his intellects; he expre,:a d sorrow ier his lac in%
nerve to struggle against the world's woes, and L"onneevi`
friends having promised to take care of him, he was !itil

his liberty.

CORN-LAW FALLACIES, WITH THE

ANSWERS.

(Continued from The Sun of Wednesday.)

165.--. rye lately called the attention of our agricultural
readers to the wanton and vexatious attack upon their interests
co: twined in the stupid, uncalled-for alteration of the duties
on foreign fruit. —Maidstone Journal, Oct. 23, 1838.
ANSWER.—Some good must have been doing, if " our
agricultural readers" are called on. It seems there are
pear-laws as well as corn-laws ; and the little may be taken
as sample of the great.

166.--One instance has just occurred. A few days since,
about 200 bushels of foreign pears passed the Customhouse,
paying only the reduced scale of duty on their declared value,
which amounted to about fourpence the bushel. The protect-
ing duty which her Majesty's Ministers, the officially-constituted
protectors of agriculture, in the fullness of their anxiety to carry
out the one-sided reciprocity system, have taken off, would
have subjected the fruit in question to a duty of 7s. 6d.—ld.
A.—That is, the Government has refused to take 7s. 2d.
from the munchers of pears, and 7s. 2d. more from the
tradesmen with whom they would have expended it if they
had munched their pears free (making 14s. 4d.), in order
to put 7s. 2d. into the pockets of the owners of pear
orchards.

167.—The effect that must result is obvious. English
pears, which have usually produced at this season from 12s.
to 14s. a bushel, are now selling at about half that price. —ld.
A.—How shocking! Could not the Society for Pre-
vention of Cruelty to Animals be induced to take up the
subject of cheap pears?

168. ----and, of course, the grower, with the same bur-
dens, the same expenditure for labour, taxes, rent, arid other
outgoings, must be content, if he can, to receive just half
what his labour, capital, and skill have formerly produced !
—ld.

A.—lf he cannot grow the pears but at a double price,
whence comes his right to take the difference twice over
out of other people's pockets? The distinction between
selling and stealing is, that one takes what other people
are willing to give, and the other what they are not. A
pickpocket might pay taxes, and expend for labour, taxes,
rent, and other outgoings ; but this would not make a
right t 5 take the matter of his trade out of the pockets of
the public. A man who can only carry on such a trade as
chat, ha:; no right to carry it on at all.
, But it is a misrepresentation to say he receives half of
what his labour, capital, and skill have formerly produced.
His labour, capital, and skill did not produce it ; his taking
out of other people's pockets produced it.

169.—0ne would naturally suppose, if unacquainted with
the circumstances, that the British fruit• grower had been
enjoying a valuable monopoly, under which he was getting so
rich and waxing so great, that it was becoming necessary, as
a matter of State policy, to take a slice off his profits, and
keep him within the bounds of moderate prosperity, and that
therefore the Government of the country had thus, as it were,
sum ptitiously interfered, by a stroke of secret policy I—ld.
A.—lt is always matter of State policy, or ought to be,
to stop those who are living on what they take from other
people. Still more, when it is to be taken twice over, for
the half that goes to the plunderer.

1 70. —Any man having the most moderate stock of common
sense, would be apt to laugh in one's face if he were told that
the period selected for this extraordinary interference with the
gains of the fruit-grower, was one in which he often fouled
that it would have been profitable to have thrown his fruit to
the pigs rather than incur the risk and loss of sending it to
market. —ld.

A. If he cannot grow the fruit with a profit, what reason
is that why the difference is to be supplied out of other
people's pockets? A pretty conclusion things would be
brought to, if every man who could not make both ends
meet, claimed the right to levy the difference on his
neighbours.
171.—But there is another circumstance connected with
this subject, which, if the measure remain unrcpealed, will be
a source of greater injustice than any we have named, amount-
ing, in fact, to positive robbery. We allude to its effects upon
agreements under the Act for the Commutation of Tithes.
These agreements, it is known, are calculated on the average
produce for seven years, enJing with 1835. Now, in the fruit
parishes of this county, fruit has in many instances been valued
nearly as high as hops—we may state the average at about
255. an acre ; whereas now, in the opinion of able and expe-
rienced men, five shillings will be much nearer the value of
the tithe on fruit. —ld.

A.—See how one deep calls upon another. " First, set
a dishonest price on fruit ; then include it in a dishonet
commutation of tithe ; and so you will have the persons
involved in the dishonest commutation, to back those inte-
rested in the dishonest price." This is what the Ministry
chose to do, and they would hear of nothing else. There
is no doubt a claim for the revision of the tithe.

172.—A few days ago 200 bushels of foreign pears passed
the Custom-house, paying only fourpence per bushel of duty,
instead of seven shillings and sixpence, as heretofore. The
consequence of this change of system must be utter ruin to
the English fruit grower ; and the case in question furnishes
an additional illustration of the character of our prevailing
commercial policy. The end and object of that policy is to
sacrifice every class, in succession, of native producers, to the
insatiable lust of cheapness, by which our idle consumers are
possessed —Morning Herald, Oct. 24, 1838.
A.—Why not as well support the stealers of pocket-
handkerchiefs, in opposition to " the insatiable lust of
cheapness" which possesses the idle consumer, who goes
about grumbling that he is only to have the service of five
out of his last half-dozen ?

173.—Great Britain has risen, (as all powerful countries of
which history furnishes any recorij have risen,) to eminence and
influence, by regarding the interests of the producing classes as
paramount over those of mere consumers; and if Great Bri-
tain is destined to descend from her pride of place among the
nations, the causes of her descent—manifold though they may
appear—will be found to resolve themselves (as the causes of
decline in all the nations that have hitherto passed away have
resolved
s)into an inversion, by legislative influence,
of that order which nature has established between the con-
stintit,g and pro.iucing classes—an order which never can be
violated long, but at the risk of social dissolution. —ld.
A.—Where is the proof? Who believes it, except the
same classes respectively who believe the greatness of Bri-
tain comes by the trade in stolen handkerchiefs in Field-
lane? Doubtless, any alteration there would be considered
as "an inversion of the order which nature has esta-
hlkhed bet we,ai the consuming and producing classes."

74. __The unfair reduction of the duty on foreign fruits
involves, in the first place, a direct diminution of the national
income from that source. —ld.
A.—lt involves a diminution of what is taken nut of
people's pockets to be paid into the Custom-house ; but it
is presumable, that what it does not take, it leaves.

175.—The change robs, moreover, a valuable class of men
(who have, on the faith of legislative protection, embarked
their capitals in the trade affected) of that compensating, or
nearly compensating price, to which they were entitled to look
forward in a season of scarcity.--/d.

A.—A elms of men who live upon other people, are
anything but valuable.

IN.—But not merely is the class of cultivators in question
robbed of a partial and temporary protection from loss :
their properties are permanently deprived of at least one-half
the value, that previously belonged to them.—li.
A.—That is, they are deprived of half the value, which
had previously been given to them by laws made by the
owners and their fellows, to enable them to double the
value at the expense of other people.
177.—That depreciation of property is caused by the neces-
sary abandonment of their trade to foreigners ; and that aban-
donment of a blanch of native industry not merely inflicts in-
jury on the capitalists who had carried it on, but on a consi-
derable bcdy of labourers, whom that branch of industry
supplied with the means of occupation.—ld.
A.—For every man thrown out of employment by taking
the 7s. 2d. from the dishonest pear-grower, a man is brought
into employment by the expenditure of the 7s. 2d. on the
honest trader who gets it ; and the muncher of pears, who
may also be a working man, gets something for his 7s. 2d.
instead of nothing.

178.—This process of narrowing the market for native la-
bour, and the field for the employment of native capital, in-
jures to a certain, although scarcely definable, degree, all other
classes of labourers and capitalists—in the first place, by
increasing to a greater or a lesser extent the general pressure
of competition in the employment both of capital and of la-
bour; and, in the second place, by lessening to precisely the
same extent, the consumption in the home market, of the other
products of native industry.—/d.
A.—There is no narrowing the market for native labour;
for where what may be called a dishonest labourer is taken
away, an honest one is called up in his room. There is no
narrowing the field for the employment of native capital,
for the dishonest capital is replaced in the same way by
honest. And in addition to all this, the consumers, who
are everybody, get something for their money instead of
nothing, at every turn.

179.—Then follows increased pressure on the poor-rates,
accompanied with diminished means of supporting the burden
which they impose. Then come the customary denunciations
of the poor—because they are without that employment, of
which the Legislature has, by its specific acts, deprived them :
then come, on the other hand, the feeling of hatred towards
property, the sense of injustice inflicted by law, and those deep
desires of vengeance against the privileged classes by whom
the law is " ruled"—desires which, when they have thoroughly
leavened the mass of the labouring poor, deprive the posses-
sions of the rich of their best—their only ultimate safeguard.
—ld.
A.—The premises having fallen," then comes"—nothing.
But look out for what may come, when the people under-
stand the nature of food monopolies.

1 r3O. And for vcll;A mighty obj._tct are these results, "
littlo," risked in the easo heforo ? in order that the
lovers of dcs.seri.s Ina-yr enjoy a luxury on unnaturally cheup
terms.—ld.

A.—Wily stop the stealing of pocket-handkerchiefs ?

S:lnply that the lovers of poeket,haodkerehiefs may blow
their noses on unnaturally ch6p ieffils. Set up the
stealers in the judgment-seat, and this will soon be what
they will " rule."

MONEY AND CITY NEWS.

(FROM Tilt MORNING PAPERS OF TFIIS DAY.)
TIAIR S.—The return recently made of the circulation of
the country banks leads to a comparison with its state at this
period of last year, from which some important conclusions
may be often drawn. The account stands thus:—.

Average from the Ist of July to the 30th of September,
1837:
Private Banks £6,701,996
Joint-stock Banks 3,440,053

Total X 10,142,044
Average from the Ist of July to the 30th of September,
1838 :
Private Banks £7,083,811
Joint-stock Banks 4,281,153

Total

£11,364,964

Increase
Of this increase, it appears that 381,815/. is in the circula-
tion of the private banks, and the remaining 841.100/. in the
circulation of the joint-stock banks. The increase of the cir-
culatiou of the private banks is, therefore, nearly 51 per cent.
on the circulation of the corresponding period of last year;
and the increase in the circulation of the joint-stock banks is
nearly 24i- per cent. on the circulation of the corresponding
period of last year.
From the circumstance that this great increase in the circa
lation of the joint-stock banks takes place at a period when
manufactured articles and the raw material are at low prices,
it is to be feared that this increase is founded on advances on
railway shares and other securities, which, however good in
themselves, are highly objectionable as the foundation of is-
suos of paper. Some re-action is, therefore, necessarily to be
looked for.

The unfavourable reports respecting the news from India
caused soma stir in the funds, with a decline of prices. Con-
sols receded to 931 to for Money and the Account ; Bank
Stock was 2031 to 4; India Stock was depressed to 259 to
60 ; Exchequer Bills 645. to 665. premium.
There was little movement in the foreign market. Dutch
Stocks were firm, the Two-and-a- Half per Cents. at 54 to ;
the Five per Cents., 1001 to 1; Spanish Actives, with the
May Coupons, were 171- to 4 ; Portuguese Five per Cents.,
311 to 24 ; the Three per Cents., 203- to 1 ; Brazilian were
78 to ; Mexican, 211 to 24; Colombian, 231 to
Railway Shares improved slightly. Great Western were
13 to 14; London and Birmingham, 84 to 86; Manchester
and Birmingham, 1 to 14 premium ; Eastern Counties, LI-, to
i; Brighton, 21 to i ; Blackwall, 18 to / discount.
The adsices from Buenos Ayres reach to the 11th of
August. The French brig of war Badine had arrived with
the ultimatum of the French Government to M. A. Roger,
late Consul at Buenos Ayres. The blockade was still pressed ;
but it was stated from Monte Video, in letters of the 14th
of August, that the French Admiral had passed up the river
the day before, supposed to make fresh propositions. It ap-
pears, according to some of the letters from Buenos Ayres,
that Santa Cruz had been actively engaged in endeavouring
to bring over the troops opposed to him, and had made pro-
pos;tions to that end through Colonel Sevilla to I 1 midst, the
Ge,,eral commanding on the frontiers for Buenos Ayres.
Accounts have been received from Rio Janeiro to the 2d of
September. The exchange was 27/ to 1. It was stated
that the Finance Minister was about to demand a credit of
the Legislature for 5,000 contos of reis after the discussion
on the budget, appointed to take place about a week after.
wards.

Letters have reached the city from Guayaquil, by way of
Panama, to so late a date as the Bth of August. They refer
to advices received from Payta, on the coast of Peru, dated a
few days previously, which mention that a revolution had
broken out in Piura and the northern provinces of Peru against
Santa Cruz, and that a similar movement was expected to have
been simultaneously made at Lima on the 28th of July, with
Orbigoso, the President, at the head of it.
The greatest anxiety has prevailed in the city respecting the
intelligence from India, as nothing had arrived except the de-
spatches of the East India Company, which came on by their
own special messenger, leaving the mails to follow. The
letters which are to come on by Mr. Waghorn's agency, as they
would pass through Marseilles, are expected to be in town on
Monday; the Post-office, last in the race, as usual, employs
the Mediterranean packet line, and that delivery is not due till
the 4th of November; when it may arrive is another matter.
CHRONICLE.—The Consol market opened buoyant,
with a tendency to improve, but it shortly afterwards sustained
suddenly a considerable depression, the price, which was firm
at 94 both for Money and the Account, having receded to
931 to and at which it closed. Nothing positive transpired
as to the cause of this unexpected change in the appearance of
things, although rumours of every description were current.
The report most credited at the Stock Exchange was that the
despatches from India were cf a very warlike character ; but
rot the slightest change has taken place in the value of
East India Stock or India Bonds, which would naturally be
more particularly depressed had the state of things in the East
undergone any alteration for the worse, so that the state-
ments in that respect seem to require confirmation. An-
other report, and which was also very general, was that a
vessel had arrived at Liverpool with further advices from
Canada, and that their complexion was not satisfactory. As
a short time, however, must throw light upon the matter, it is
useless to dwell upon the merits of the rumours. Advices
have certainly been received from India at the East India
House to Sept. 13th, from Bombay, but nothing official, as we
have said before, has yet been made known, and no private
letters have come to hand. India Stock remains at 2614- to
2624, and India Bonds at 64 to 66 prem.
The uncertain state of affairs in the English Stock Market
created some gloom in the foreign, but business was not ex-
tensive, and there is not, therefore, any particular variation to
notice in the prices. _ _ _

Accounts have come to hand from Rio de Janeiro to the
Ist ult., which arc not on the whole considered very favour-
able. Commercial matters were very inanimate, and fears
were entertained as to the state of Rio Grande, where it ap-
pears the insurgents were still exerting themselves to get the
upper hand. The meeting of Congress had been prorogued
to the 30th of September, when it was expected the Minister
of Finance would apply for an additional credit of about 5,000
contos of reis. The rate of exchange on London was 971 to
and the price of the local stock 81 to 1. The blocka6 of
Buenos Ayres still continued on the 10th of August.
The rumours continue very general that the Directors of
the Bank of England are daily in grave deliberation as to
the policy of lowering the rate of discount, and conse-
quently of extending the currency, a measure which has
been strongly recommended to their adoption at the
present time. It is generally understood in the City that
the Directors would be extremely willing to extend the
currency, so far as their own position as hankers may
be concerned, for the profits of the establishment are
declining so much that an increase of their business, and con-
sequently of profits, would be very desirable as a means of
keeping up the dividends, the payment of which has latterly
deducted so alarmingly from the " rest," or surplus capital ;
but, on the other hand, the Bank has been formerly charged
with so many errors arising out of the extension of the cur-
rency, that the Directors are exceedingly timid on the sub.
ject, and though money has been recently proved to be decid-
edly deficient in the country, they are believed to be quite
bewildered as to the course which it may be prudent to take.
The true policy, in the opinion of many well-informed per-
sons, would be to steer a middle course, and to extend the cir-
culation in a reasonable degree, but without that wholesale
deluge of paper which formerly led to the early and corres-
ponding great contractions which have brought so many trou-
bles on the commerce of the world.

HERALD.—The commercial and monetary interests were
thrown into more than usual excitement during, the early part
of the day by the announcement that the East India Company
bad received overland despatches and papers from our East
Indian possessions by the Malta mail, containing not only very
important, but alarming intelligence from the trontiers of Per-
sia and the northern provinces of India.
These despatches, which have been brought to the East In-
dia Company exclusively by their agent, Mr. Calvert, from
Malta, reach down to the 13th September from Bombay, with
corresponding dates from other portions of India, and pretty
strongly confirm the previous statements of this Journal that
Russia has long been making the most of her insidious and
self-aggrandising policy, both in Persia and the North of
British India. It appears from these despatches to the
Company and the Government, the contents of which have
been kept as secretly as possible, that the Indian Government,
at length aroused to the important fact that the Russians have
not only been intriguing with the Persians but the Rajahs in
our north Indian territories, have, at the eleventh hour, re-
solved to check these intrigues on the part of the Russians by
a vigorous movement of troops and reinforcement of the Indian
army to the extent of full 50,000 men. It is also stated that
about 25,000 regular British and Company's troops were
marching to Affghanistan, in the Caboul, with a view to pro-
tect Ale Rajahs in the north from the attacks of the Persians,
who it is fully evident have been backed by Russian intrigues;
in fact, from every one of the Presidencies all the troops that
could be spared have been advanced toward the north of India.
Sir Henry Fane had retracted his resignation, and was to
command the forces in Caboul. These accounts also confirm
our previous statement that a force had been sent to take
possession of Aden.
Amongst parties well acquainted with East India affairs it
is anticipated, if the demonstration on the part of the British
power in India has not come too late, that it will lead to some
considerable changes in the petty sovereignties of
India,
though there is some satisfaction arising out of the circumstance
that Runjeet Singh had resolved to co-operate with the British,
and aid them with 50,000 troops. It also appears that Rus-
sian intrigue had not penetrated into the Burmese empire, and
that the new resident, Major Benson, had been cordially re-
ceived at Ava. By the mercantile accounts from India, it is
stated that the prices of corn and cottons were on the advance.
At Bombay the exchange had fallen to 2s. Id., and at Cal-
cutta it was reported that the company had closed their trea-
slauirLyd! advances

communication with India by priv.;te enterprise will make Il'
for the apathy of thz• Ow:eminent aarl East Indinn authoriL:,
on a question of so much importance.
The private letters which have been received from Con-

stantinople to-day confirm the previous statements of this Jour-
nal as to the fact of Rcschid Pacha's visit to this country, with
a view to strengthen the commercial relations between the
British Government and the Porte ; but it is anticipated
that it will require no inconsiderable degree of tact on the
part of our Adonis at the
intrigues of Russia with the Porte,
and regain that due amount of British supremacy in the Le-
vant, and throughout the east, which has been sacrificed by
wordy protocols, unbacked by a strong line of old-fashioned
British policy.

POST.—The important, announcement of the distracted
state of affairs on the Persian frontiers and in the northern
provinces of our Indian Empire, created by Russian intrigue,
as published in the second edition of the Morning Post to-
day, created the greatest excitement amongst all the leading
interests of the City ; and as it was fully confirmed by the
circumstance that the East India Company and the Govern-
ment had received advices of an urgent nature from that im-
portant but neglected portion of the British Empire, it may
readily be imagined that it bad considerable influence upon
all our public securities. There seems not to be the
slightest doubt but that the Indian Government had been
aroused to make every effort to check Russian intrigue
with the northern Rajahs, and in all the petty sovereign-
ties of Caboul, but, in effect, the intelligence which
has transpired to-day goes but little beyond that which
has already appeared in the Morning Post. It is satis-
factorv, however, to mention that Runjeet Singh had resolved
to support the British forces with an army of 50,000 men,
whilst it is supposed that the Burmese empire has not been
actually tainted by Russian intrigue, as Major Benson had been
received at the Court of Ava as the new British Resident.

The private letters from Constantinople do not add to the
information given by the private correspondence of this Journal
in the morning; but our monetary quotations will show that
the present gloomy aspects of our political horizon have had a
good deal of influence upon the Public Funds.
The circumstances to which we have already referred have
caused a considerable depression in the Public Securities as
compared with the closing quotations of the last evening,
and some large sales caused Consols to fall from 94;i- to 931
for Money and Time. There have, however, been compara-
tively few Money sales, and the last quotations are 934 to
for Money and the Account.
