(Signed) JOHN NEILSON.
THE PRINCE OF CASSARO.

SIR JOHN KEY.

Amongst the documents is the following letter, ad-
dressed by Sir John Key to the Chairman of the Com-
mittee

" Sir—Being satisfied that the object of Honourable
Members in instituting and pursuing the inquiry in which
your Committee is engaged is the promotion of the public
good, and not the persecution of an individual, I have
hitherto refrained from supplicating that protection from
your Committee which, under other circumstances, the
duty of self-preservation would have induced me to have
done.

" I have not attempted to conceal from you the rnisre-
presentation of which I was guilty, in reference to the age
of my son—it is an act which I can neither deny nor
defend ; and having suffered the severest punishment,
both from self•condemnation and public reprobation, I
intreat your candid construction of my conduct, influenced
as it was by perhaps the most powerful of human motives,
a desire to provide for my offspring ; and the knowledge
that having creditably filled a similar situation in my own
extensive establishment, he would, with a few weeks'
practice, he a more efficient officer than any one who had
enjoyed the same appointment for at least the last twenty
years.
"As to my supposed participation in the profits of my
brother's contract, the resignation of my seat perhaps fur-
nished grounds as strong for the Committee to draw their
own conclusions as the production of evidence could have
afforded them. I understand that statements have been
made to the Committee which, under the pretext of ar-
raigning the conduct of the principals in the Stationery
Office, aim at the entire destruction of my character as a
man and a merchant. If it is the pleasure of the Com-
mittee to prosecute the inquiry respecting the part myself
or family have ever taken in the supply of the Stationery
Office, I shall have the greatest pleasure in giving every
explanation in my power, and in laying before them our
books ; confident as I am that the more the subject is
investigated the more clearly it will appear that the con-
tracts held by myself or family have ever been obtained
by fair and open competition, witheut favour or partiality
—that they have been fairly and honestly executed by
goods equal to the samples; and that through the instru-
mentality of myself and family, and through the throwing
open to public tender that part of the supply which Lad
been previously enjoyed as a close monopoly, an enormous
public saving has been effected ; while the profits of the
contractor have been limited to a rate so moderate, that
nothing but quick returns and certainty of payment could
justify their continuance upon the same terms.
If the Committee should deem such a course of pro-
ceeding necessary, I trust that they will throw around
the witnesses the protection which a Bill of Indemnity
can alone afford against the penalities imposed by the very
severe and impolitic enactments of a statute which has
been, it is well known, so systematically and generally
evaded, as almost to be considered obsolete.
" Several of the petitioners against me are persons who
have suffered a large diminution of the enormous gains
which they formerly derived from the supply of stationery ;
and I have incurred their bitter hostility, by being in-
strumental in the alteration of a system so injurious to the
public, and favourable to themselves. I have also ascer-
tained that, for some time past, servants who were dis-
carded by me for dishonesty have been employed to fabri-
cate evidence against me, and have endeavoured to seduce
ray present servants to betray their trust.
" Under these circumstances I respectfully, but ear-
nestly, request of your Committee, it in the course of the
pending inquiry statements should be made affecting my
character, that I may be furnished with a statement of the
charges brought against me, the evidence by which it is
attempted to be supported, and that I may be allowed to
have the witnesses cross-examined ; and that time be
given to me to adduce testimony to rebut such charges.
By relinquishing my seat in the House I am deprived of
the only opportunity of defending myself, should the
Committee refuse my request. The publication of ex-
parte evidence given by persons who avow themselves to
be, and have (as far as their pecuniary interests are
concerned) reasons to he, my bitter enemies, may destroy
my character for ever ; and thus, having committed an
offence for which a charitable construction of human
motives might have found some apology, I may stand
before the world as having bee❑ guilty of every species of
fraud and misconduct, which the malice of my enemies
may impute to me, although there is no foundation in truth
for the charge.
" I earnestly entreat of the Committee, if an inquiry into
any part of the system of the stationary-office contract is to
be pursued, that the whole may be inquired into ; and
if my conduct is assailed, that I may be allowed time
and opportunity for its defence. By serving the Go-
vernment upon terms so much lower than my competi-
tors I and my family have provoked the hostility of
nearly the whole of the trade. Commercial confidence is of
the most sensitive character ; and, if by the destruction
of my reputation, by means of false and calumnious evi-
dence, myself and family should sustain an injury in credit,
and be driven from competing for the contracts, the
combination formed against me will cause the commodity
to rise, and the Government will again be driven to
purchase of some of the confederates et prices considera-
bly higher, if not approaching to those which they
formerly exacted from the public service.
"I have the honour to be, Sir,
" JOHN KEY."
" Ahchurch-lane, Aug. 10, 1833."

On Wednesday, a female child, about four
or five months old, was found drowned in the Union
Canal, near the first stone bridge, with a rope about its
neck, to the farther end of which a stone appeared to have
been attached, but which having fallen off, the body had
been raised by one of the boats in passing. The body was
brought to the Police-office, and an inquiry instituted.
which has resulted in the seizure of the reputed father nod
mother of the child, who are still in custody. The case,
we understand, involves circumstances of such a revolting
character, as are not fit for the public eye.—. Scotsman.
PROGRESS OF CHOLERA— ['HE NEW
PREVENTION ACT.-Our information on the subject of
cholera leads to the conclusion, that in most districts of
the metropolis which have been visited by it the disease
is progressively declining. About Clerkenwell, and in
some of the low situations along the course of the river, it
continues to a considerable extent, but even in those parts
appeared on the decline during the last two days. Its
chief ravages throughout have been among the aged and
previously infirm, or the dissipated ; and in many the
development of the malady, in its malignant form, has
been attributable to the neglect of the early symptoms;
it cannot, therefore, be too strongly impressed on the
public mind, that at the present moment the slightest
attack of sickness or bowel complaint ought to be instantly
attended to, as these are, for the most part, easily obviated
by proper remedies ; while, if suffered to continue, they
may piss in a few hours into a state from which the pa-
tients cannot be restored by any means hitherto discovered.
The Cholera Prevention Bill has again passed both Houses
of Parliament, and is therefore again effective. As yet
nothing has been done besides employing medical men to
collect information, and make their reports in the proper
quarter. This was accomplished at first through the
assistance of private practitioners, but some medical
ifficers of the army have now been appointed to the duty
in question. 'Ye trust that the passing of the Act will
prove to be only a measure of precaution, and that it will
not be requisite to put it in full operation..—Medical Ga-
zette.,
