TO THE EDITOR OF THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD.

SIR,—I called upon Mr. Alex. Smith, jun., alone ; and
afterwards Mr. James Aikin was so good as to accompany
me, when we delivered to him the letter of which the above

•
is a copy, with the desire of giving Mr. A. Smith, Jun., an
opportunity of withdrawing this accusation publicly ; but he
declined doing so, and therefore nothing remains for me but
to repeat that the accusation is altogether without founds-.
tion.-1 am, sir, &c.,
Liverpool, 28th Jan. 1811. RICH. V. YATES.

" The Liverpool Mail of the 26th January having been
shown to us, containing the following words, purporting to
be part of a speech delivered by Mr. Alexander Smith, jun.,
to the Tradesmen's Conservative Association, on the preced-
ing day, namely,—
There was one person who kept a house at the corner of
Whitfield-street, next door to a Mr. Carter; this person's
name was William Mason, and himself and his father were
voters for the same house, so that there were two voters in
one family, and two voters in one family were of importance
in the election in which he (Mr. Smith) was engaged. A
friend of his (Mr. Smith's) being surprised that they should
have voted contrary to the way in which they had voted be-
fore, asked the younger Mr. Mason why they had voted in
this way, and he gave as his reason, that he had been pro-
mised a license if he and his father voted for Mr. William
Rathbone. (Loud cheers.) He (Mr. Smith) bad taken the
words down, and Mason's statement was to the following
effect :—He said he had been waited on by Mr. Lawson and
another, who said that if he and his father voted as they
wished he should have a license next year. Mr. Mason then
said that he had had similar promises held out to him before,
and that, as they had not been fulfilled, he would require
that the assurance should be given by some one on whom he
could have some dependance. This, in his (Mr. Smith's)
opinion, showed that he understood his business. (Hear,
and a laugh.) The next day Mr. Richard Yates called on
him to solicit his vote, and promised him to use all his in-
fluence to secure his license, and said—" No one on the bench
has more influence than Mr. Rathbone, and if you vote for
him you will secure his influence also."
" We hereby declare that the representations in the above
paragraph are untrue. I, for myself, William Mason, de-
clare that I never uttered to Mr. Smith the words which he
says he had ' taken down.' And in justice to Mr. Richard
Yates we both positively assert that he never called upon or
spoke one word to either of us on the subject of the last con-
test for North Toxteth Ward, that he has not called upon or
spoken to either of us for some years past, and that he never
on any occasion spuke one word to either the one or the
other about a license.

STEALING JOINERS' TOOLS. young man, named
Thomas Quick, was yesterday placed at the bar of the police
court, on a charge of having stolen from time to time a
quantity of joiner's tools and other articles, the property of
several individuals of the same trade. Police-officer Pear-
son, No. 5, stated that from information he had received,
he searched the premises of the prisoner, who is a marine-
store dealer, where he took out of his hand 54 pawutickets,
and through them found a number of joiner's tools, at the.
respective shops of Mr. Howard, in Christian-street, and,
Mr. Jones, pawnbrokers. He afterwards found some tools
in the prisoner's house. The whole were produced. John
Jones, a joiner, in Copperas-hill said, that on the 12th De-
cember, he had worked at the same new buildings in Booth-
road, Kirkdale. At dark he left his tools in the stable, and
on the morning of the 11th, when he returned, he missed a
number of them, a measuring-tape, and other articles. He
identified the tape produced, and some of the tools. His
tools were worth £3. Edward Connor, a joiner, had been
working with the prisoner at the premises in Kirkdale, and
at night put his tools into a closet, whence they were after-
wards stolen. Those produced were the same. His tools
were worth £5. James Johnson, a joiner, also lost tools
from the same building, and recognised some of those pro-
duced as his property. Henry Edwards, another joiner,
also recognised a plane, which he had lent to Johnson. The
prisoner said that he had bought the articles, and had ex-
posed them for sale. He was committed for trial at the
sessions, and his application to be admitted to bail was
refused by the magistrates, who remarked that such charac-
tees as he were the most troublesome subjects the police had
to deal with.—Another prisoner, au elderly man, named
Henry. Fairclough Page, was also committed for trial, on a.
charge of stealing a quantity of joiner's tools, from the shop
of Mr. Cooper, joiner, Jordan-street.
We are happy to hear that our army is to be increased be.
the extent of 10,000 men. They are much wanted. There
is also a rumour—how true we know not—that an addition
is to be made to the marines.—Brighton Gazelle.
