We are Eeati to see the independent part of
the Press cowing gradually round to the view
which we have always taken of the late change
in the corrency. Almost every provincial paper

which we have seen for weeks past has detailed
the calamities arising from it ; and if any proof
were wanting to support their assertions, it would
be found in the deplorable state of the country,
whose trade, commerce, and manufactures are
allowed to be in a state of the greatest depres-
sion. But we were scarcely prepared for such a
sweeping declaration of the value of the small
notes, and the superiority of the country bankers
to the district, or branch, banks of the Bank of
England, as is contained in the following extract ;
from an Evening Paper:—
" The circulation of small rotes produced," says
it, "we are inclined to think, tome effects which

were not commonly adverted to Wore it was doomed
to destruction.—As the country bankers (com-
monly men of some capital—many of them large
capital) derived a double profit from the lending of
money and the circulation of their notes, it became
worth their while, for the sake of their indirect
gains, to bear the risk and trouble which attended
loan transactions with persons who had no security
to offer except their character and activity. It be-
came a part of their business to obtain accurate
knowledge of the cha►actrrs of men ; and thus by
peat activity, they were enabled to lend—without
greater risk than the profits of their circulation suf-
ficed to cover—on the security not only of title
deeds, but of the probity and industry of their cus-
tomers. This is a business which a great corpora•
tion cannot well perform ; or, if it is enabled ulti-
mately to perform it by means of agencies, it can-
not at any rate accomplish it on the sudden. More-
over, it has no small note circulation to repay it for
the charges."
This is one of the grounds on which we have
repeatedly advocated the cause of the country
bankers, and the small note currency ; but our
cotemporary adds another of no less weight,
on which we have only occasionally touched.
" In some of the mot active districts of the king-
dom," says he, " people have gone on well for a
long series of years without small notes ; but the
effect of the change of system is no less real if its
tendency has been, as we. suspect, to withdraw
money from the extremities of the country to the
capital, and to increase the facilities of borrowing to
the landlord, to the temporary inconvenience of the
manufacturer, trader, and farmer." _

This is a correct explanation of the repeated
notices of money being so plentiful in the city,
and so much in demand else4bere. The effect
in the change Of the ogrrepey has been un-
doubtedly greatlyLioenlarge-the facilities of bor-

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

LAMBETCLSTREET.

PatrickM°Nantara and his wife, Elizabeth
APNainara, were yesterday brought up for final
examination, on a charge of robbing a Mrs. Silva,
residing in Rutland-street, Mile-end-road, of pro-
pe•rty value 1001., and a lodger in the same house,
named Peter Warburton, of 351. in notes.
Mrs. Silva recapitulated the evidence as to her
being robbed on the 23d of November, of property
value 100/., and amongst it was a fourpenny-piece.
The prisoners lodged in her house under the name
of Green.

Peter Warburton was a lodger of Mrs. Silva's.—
Remembered the 23d of November; came home in
the afternoon, about four o'clock, and was informed
by Mrs. Silva that the house had been robbed. lie
went up stairs, and found that a pocket-book, con•
taining one 201. and three .5/. notes had been taken
away. He also lost a pair of razors and a silk hand-
kerchief. Tire 20/. and one of the .5/. notes he had
received from his brother, and the other two notes
from Sir James Esdaile's bank.

James Reynolds was shopman to. Mr. Hall, a
linen-draper in Bishopsgate-street. He remembered
that on the 23d of November the prisoner and his
wife came to his shop, and bought a cloak. They
first offered him a 201. note in payment, upon his
telling them he had not change enough, they gave
him a 51. note. (The note produced vas identified
as one of those lost by Warburton.) The prisoners
appeared in a very great hurry on the day in ques-
tion.

A woman, named Edwards, residing in Ely-court,
Holborn, knew the prisoners very well. On the day
of the robbery, about half-past twelve at night, the
female prisoner came to her house with a bundle,
and requested her to let her stop there. She told
her she could not, and the prisoner then requested
leave to let her bundle remain there, as she was
afraid the new policemen would stop her. She also
told witness that if any officer was to inquire after
her, she was to deny any knowledge of her.
The prisoners were remanded till Friday.
A woman, named Jacob:, the keeper of a noto-
rious bad house, in Catherine-street, Commercial-
road, was brought before Mr. HARDWICK, to answer
a complaint preferred against her by Ann Trimby.
Ann Trimby, a girl about 16 years of age, was
entrapped some time since by a female into the de-
fendant's house. The defendant had given her
clothes, and forced her to go out of an evening to
pick up men, and when she did not, she beat her.—
On Thursday evening last Mrs. Jacobs beat her,
and turned her almost naked into the street.

Mr. HARDWICK said the house kept by th• de-
fendant was a dreadful nuisance, and he was deter-
mined to do all that lay in his power to abate it. He
should therefore order the defendant to find two
sureties in 50/. each for her good behaviour, and to
give 48 hours' notice of bail.
