Brooke should go on in Iris business, and should not be insolvent or knocked up in his business, while owing him so large a debt. Mr. Brooke attita- that which, under the circumstances, ap pears to mo to be important, and that was that Mr. Noldwritt was rather displeased with him at the idea that he might become insolvent, and therefore, think that Mr. Noldwritt had a decided interest in giving his name On the 11th at Upton-lodge, Wat of Captain Mountgonierie Caulfoild" th, Dublin Light Infantry, and late CapUii lO a son.

The prisoners, in a violent manner, denied being connected with the counterfeit coin, or the room wnicb tney were found. Mr. a'Beckett told them that the inspector had sworn otherwise, therefore they must all be remanded for a week for the attendance of the Mint solicitor.

The defendants were XTys annoying him and threatening to serve lnm out at the line thue charging hini with base conduct, which he denied. On Saturday evening, after performing his day work and ashe was going home, the defendants seized hold of him, threw him into a truck, bound him down with cords, "Mazeppa" fashion, and after nearly smothering him with flour, dragged him through all the streets of Dockhead and Bermondsey. He was followed by crowds of women and children, who threatened him and the mob became so outrageous and violent that, had he not been released from the truck, he believed he should have been seriously injured. To put a stop to any further annoyance he took the present proceedings. The defendants said that tho complainant deserved all the punishment and the exposure he got.

He was a regular ram in Dockhead, and no man's wife was safe from XT4. Ki, ni.TmVai.nf TAliVwiinAahn.iHaTrPTl nn 1.111 t. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. GUILDHALL -Saturday. Frederick Hoffman, a foreign importer, carrying on business in Basinghall-atreot, was aced at the bar beforo deman Sidney, charged, according to the police-shee with stealins a bill of exchange for 18b in January last, and also with assaulting the prosecutor on Saturday last.

Mr Scarth attended for the prosecution, and stated that aa the question of the bill of exchange formed the ground for an action now pending in a civil court, and the prisoner had been required by a capias to put in bail, it was his intention to proceed with the charge of assault and to abandon that for stealing the bill. Alderman Sidney said tho charges beforo him were that of stealing a bill of exchange for 180, and with assaulting the prosecutor, and it was desirable -to have it distinctly understood -which, case was to be taken, so that the time or the court might not be occupied unnecessarily. Mr. PhelpB, for the prisoner, urged that as the assault was the result of an illegal act on the part of the prosecutor, tho prisoner was entitled to his discharge. Iho fact was there were other proceedings pending in this the motive for giving the prisoner into tody was at might bo handed over to tho vil authonUes a the officers were waiting outside the court to take him an soon as he should be discharged.

-e On the 14th at 17, Princcs-ton-i. the wife of J. W. Burmester, of a man had been locke 1 up all day in a cell of the adjoining station-house, and id not been allowed to drink anything but water. Mr.

D'Eyncourt said he would change the name on the warrant from Paynter to Painter. Mr. Moss, a solicitor, residing in Gracechurch-street, said he appeared for Mrs. Painter, a highly respectable woman, who had been most terribly beaten by her husband, and was compelled to seok the protection of the law. Mrs.

Painterhad been subjected to a course of tyranny and brutality from her husband for a long time, and her life was in danger. The prisoner was foreman at Grove's outfitting establishment in Lambeth, at 5 per week, and could have maintained his wife and children in comfort and respectability; but, unfortunately, he preferred his own sensual gratifications to their welfare, and had become an habitual drunkard. Mr. Moss then detailed many brutal assaults committed by the prisoner on his wife, who is far advanced in pregnancy, and he greatly feared tho consequences would be serious both to mother and child. The prisoner had dragged his wife out of bed by the ears and kicked her.

He had recently entrusted her with money received from his late employers, and on Sunday he Bent his children out, fastened all the doors and windows, and swore, with a bitter oath, if she did not restore four 5 notes to him, he would smash her face. She then gave up the notes. On the same night the prisoner turned his wife and children into the street, and they were compelled to seek shelter in a neighbouring house. On Monday night the prisoner again ill-used his wife, and kicked her. She was now suffering from those injuries.

Mrs. Painter, a lady-like woman, far advanced in pregnancy and in a state of great suffering, sobbed loudly when the oath was administered to her, and commenced the detail of her wrongs, when Bhe was interrupted by her brutal husband, who hung down his head, and hi a whining tone said his wife had been away from him since last Monday. Mr D'Eyncourt said the prisoner was evidently not a fit state of mind to attend to the serious charge against him, or understand the nature of the evidence. Wittleton was afraid the prisoner was not in his right mind. When he served the summons on the prisoner on Friday morning he was drinking, and had a bottle of gin before lum.

He arrested the prisoner that morning at his dwelling, No. 11, Ham-place, Stepney, and he was then drunk, with another bottle of gin before him. Inspector Sullivan said the prisoner had been looked up for six hours, and was nllowed nothing but water all that time. He had no doubt the prisoner was labouring under delirium tremens. Mrs.

Painter, who was in a state of said her unfortunate husband had brought himself to the dreadful state he was in by excessive drinking. Tho prisoner here uttered some incoherent exclamations, and began abusing and using threatening language towards his wife. His mind was evidently affected. Mr. D'Eyncourt remarked that this was a very melancholy case.

The prisoner had drank enough to seriously affect him, and his nerves wore unstrung. The prisoner was not in a prosper state at present to be heard, nor could he understand the nature of the proceedings. He directed that the prisoner should bo taken back tp the station-house, and detained until Monday (this day), when he hoped the prisoner would be sufficiently recovered from his attack of delirium tremens to attend to the grave charge made against him. for Plymouth, is on shore west of Blakeney, in a dangerous position, cargo and materials are likely to be saved.

to this 500 bill, as it enabled Air. Brooke to settle Jus matters the next Hay, and a fortnight after that time also to pay him, Mr. Noldwritt, 200. The risk he ran in putting his name to the bill in question was reduced to 250, and even' in this he exhibited a great anxiety about the respectability and solvency of Mr. Bagshaw, the drawer.

I think he had such an interest in the maintenance of the credit of Brooke at that time as to induce him to add his indorsement to the bill for 500. I do not think the conduct of Mr. Noldwritt at the meeting of Brooke's creditors, and his going to the bank about the bill, reooncileable with that of a man who believed that his name had been forged, and placed to a 500 bill. He knew as well without going to the bank whether he had signed such a bill, and a man in such a position must have taken one of two courses. He must have felt most indignant and hostile agaiust the man who had-forged his name, and given vent to his feelings, or he must have sacrificed himself, and acted altogether in a friendly way.

The defendant's efforts to wind-up the business of Mr. Brooke, and his other conduct in the matter, were not reooncileable with what he asserted on the trial, that the signature was a forgery, and I cannot in my mind reconcile that conduct. I have endeavoured to get out the whole facts as well as I could, and I think from the whole character of the transactions it is impossible to come to any other conclusion than that it is his, Mr. Noldwritt's genuine signature. The evidence of those officers in the Customs, who, having been in the habit of seeing the defendant almost daily sign his name, I consider of some value, and they, from a general knowledge of his signature, say they believe the signature to the bill to be his genuine signature while others, with equal apparent sincerity, declare it is not.

I do not think that there is any one of us who can say that lie always writes his name the same way, still less can any one of us write his name between two others, his being a free hand, and not having tho usual space and liberty to write, that his style would not be different. The signature in dispute is written in between two others that had been previously and looking at it myself I confess that I consider it a genuine signature. The scientific evidence respecting the signature I think cannot be relied on. I myself say that a man writes his name on one day different from another that it depends on a pen, and even on the humour of the writer. It depends upon his will, and whether he does the thing slowly or quickly, or whether he is writing his signature with his freewill or reluctantly, or under straint and taking all tliis into account, I do not think the scientific evidence is of much value in leading to the truth in this matter.

I am extremely sorry it is a matter of deep anxiety to me that I should have to put lir. Noldwritt on his trial a man who has hitherto borne a respectable character but I do not think it would be right to Mr. Brooke, who had only an incidental opportunity given him on the trial of establishing the genuineness of the signature, that he should be condemned without having an opportunity fairly given him to satisfy a jury of it. I am deeply sorry, but I cannot feel that I am doing my duty without taking this course. The question has been raised as to the probability of a conviction.

I cannot say whether there will be a conviction, or not but I do not think I should be doing justice to Mr. Brooke if I did not give him this opportunity. I have paid the deepest attention to the case, but this is the only conclusion to which I can come. I only wish that I could feel that in acquitting Mr. Noldwritt, I could siso acquit Mr.

Brooke. The defendant was then committed in the usual form to appear at the Kingston Assizes at present holden, but as all the witnesses were not present, he was admitted to bail, himself in 1,000, and two sureties in 500 each, to appear at this court this day (Monday) to have the remaining. witnesses bound over. Aldennan Sidney said he would hear the evidence with regard to the assault. Louis Rochfort said he was an importer of foreign gooUs, carryin" on business at 80a, Fore-street, Imsbury.

On Saturday, March he met tho prisoner, who on seeing him ran into a house in Cornhill. He followed lnm to nearly tho top of the house, when the prisoner turned round and demanded what he wanted. Ho asked hiia to give him back the bill for l'18(i, upon which the prisoner knoeked him down and ran away. He had not seen the prisoner since, until he met him on Friday night, when he gave him into custody for the assault. Cross-examined He did not catcli hold of tho prisoner by tho shoulder before ho was struck.

It was a very- narrow staircase, and the prisoner pushed him on one side mid knocked him down in order to get away. Ho know that the prisoner carried on business in Basinghall-strcet, but no one had been able to catcli him there. He had no process of any kind to serve upon tho prisoner but he wisneu to know from him why he did not give up the bill. Aldennan Sidney said it appeared to him that the prosecutor was not justified in pursuing the prisoner into the house in question, and as the latter was following his lawful occupation he was justified in pushing the comp am ant-aside when ho endeavoured to stop him. Under tho circumstances, he considered that no assault had been committed, and tho prisoner was therefore discharged.

The prisoner was accordingly liberated, but lie was ai-rostod immediately on leaving the court.

Embezzlement. Jeremiah Bees was charged with embezzling various sums of money belonging to his employer, James Kenneth, fishmonger, 121, New Bond-street. The prisoner was clerk to the prosecutor, and it was his duty to take the money to the banker's twice a week, and pay it in. On the 14th of February the prisoner was entrusted with lMs. to pay into the bank.

He paid only 35 showing a deficit of 4 4s. 2d. On the 20th he-bruary the prisoner received 29 18s. 2d. to pay in, which sum he never paid in at all.

Mr. a'Beckett told the defendants that their conduct was very bad in illusing the complainant in the manner they had done.

If they suspected he had stolen the boots, they shoidd have taken the proper course pointed out by the law, and not take it into their own hands. As a caution to them for the future not to carry out their spree with such violence, he should fine each of them 20s. and COStB. The defendants immediately paid the fines, and left the court with their friends, rather surprised at the adjudication. CLERKENWELLSaturday.

Important to the Public The New Omnibus Company. An important question, as veil for the public as the new French Omnibus Company, was decided by Mr. Tyrwhitt, four of the company's conductors and drivers being summoned for unlawfully delaying the omnibuses on theirrespective journeys. Mr. Lewis attended for.

the defence. It appeared from the evidence of one of the new cab attendants that he had been instructed by the police to take notice of those omnibuses which stopped a longer time than usual at the bottom of Highbury -place. In tho case of the four defendants he said that a delay of three minutes had taken place, but in one the delay was as much as six minutes. Although he was aware tbatthe cab proprietors did not like the new system, still he had not taken out these summonses at their suggestion but at the instance of the police authorities. Mr.

Lewis (who attended for the company) contended that a delay of three or four minutes at the point in question, Highbury-place, was not a delay within the meaning of the act, as the passengers got into the omnibus with a printed notice that they would stop there to change to the omnibus in correspondence, and that, therefore, there was a contract on entering that such reasonable delay should take place. He was, therefore, of opinion that no legal charge of delay could be sustained, and he called the attention of the magistrate to the fact that the summons had not been taken out by any of the passengers. Mr. Wilson (late proprietor of the Favourite ommbuseB) was called, and stated that he was one of the managers for the new company. He thought that a delay of six minutes was too much, the delay generally being from ivo to three minutes.

The omnibus at Highbury-placo must have some time for the taking up of the passengers who came by the company's conveyances from Westminster, the Post-office, and Blackwall, and who were thus enabled to go on to Highbury-barn by paying the small additional charge of Id. Mr. Tyrwhitt, in dismissing the summons, Haid that it was proved by the experienced manager, Mr. Wilson, that a delay of six minutes was by far too long. He should most certainly feel annoyed if he was riding in an omnibus and expected to meet the corresponding omnibus to find that whon he arrived at the point it was gone.

If some time was not given the public would be very much inconvenienced, but in holding that the delay complained of was not unlawful, ho at the same time suggested that it was for public convenience that the omnibus should stop for about three minutes to receive passengers in or jxorciine-uau, to Margaret, on ihn loi WilKoTn 11 1-' rowB, On the 12th Mr. A.

William Henry Da wson, of the Belle Saiivage Tap, Lud-gate-hill, was summoned for keeping his house open for tho sale of malt and spirituous liquors after the hours of twelve o'clock on Saturday night. Police-constable 85 said, at twenty minutes past one o'clock on Sunday morning, the 0th of March, lie found the defendant's door open aud he went in, when he saw ten men and four women of improper character in the bar drinking gin and beer.

He told the defendant he should summons him. Fined 20s. and costs. Samuel Hall, of tho Emnmer Old Fish-street hill, pleaded guilty to a similar charge, and was fined the costs. OBSTRUCTION IN THE CITY, When the magistrates were about to leave the bench, a man with a badge hanging on his coat (No.

2,819) said he had been induced to appear before them in consequence of the letter which lately appeared in the Morning Advertiser, from Mi'. D. W. Harvey, the chief commissioner of police, relative to the obstruction of the thoroughfares in the City. Ho did not think the real causes of the complaint had been stated by the commissioner.

He traced the stoppages in the City to three causes. First, the vast monopoly which the railways possessed of appointing certain favoured cabs to the various stations, to the exclusion of the general body of cabmen. Those cabs, when they took a fair through the City, returned empty and, as they made 1,000 journeys a day, there were daily 1,000 extra empty cabs prowling through tho City. Another cause was the system of masters coutracting with thoir servants at so much per day, which drove them, when trade was dull, to violate the law in order to make up the amount the master required and the third was the system of fining the men instead of the masters. Alderman Lawrence said he supposed he would propose a new act of Parliament.

The applicant said he would. He would propose to abolish all useless and absurd regulations, and to introduce only those that would be for the benefit of society. For instance, the cabman's badge was no protection to the public. He had been a cab proprietor and driver, aud for fifteen years he had evaded the regulation but about sixteen months ago he took to wearing the badge, and he sometimes wore Ids own number, and sometimes a foul" one, and there was no possibility of his being detected. He had ten badges with foul" numbers, and therefore there could be no protection afforded to the public by them.

He was about to lay his plans more fully before tiie court, when Alderman Lawrence told him to write down all he had to say, and he would put them in a proper channel for consideration. The applicant then withdrew. NEWGATE AND LEADENHALL.

In the early part of last week, a respectable tradesman named Richard Scorcy, was charged with an unprovoked and unmanly assault upon Elizabeth Lawrence.

Complainant, whose appearance was extremely respectable, described herself as a milliner and dressmaker, carrying on business in Moore-street, Chelsea. She stated that she was returning home, after being out shopping, when the defendant and a friend obstructed her path and offered her some insult. She requested them to go about their business, when he maided her about, dragged her shawl off her back, scattered the articles she had purchased upon the ground, and struck her twice with a stick he had in his hand. In support of this statement she called a boy, who appeared to be a perfect stranger to both parties, who confirmed her account of the transaction. The answer to this by defendant was, that he and his brother were walking at Chelsea, at eleven at night, when they encountered the oomplainant and a man, arm in arm.

The latter as they passed made use of some very offensive remark to defendant, to which he rejoined, when the man made a desperate attack upon him, agaiust which he defended himself with his stick. He denied having assaulted the complainant, although free to admit she might in the melee havo received a blow. Tiie complainant, in the plenitude of virtuous indignation, declared that she knew nothing of the man, and that she was walking alone, as she had described, but that some labouring person, seeing her ill-treated, exercised his manhood in her behalf. Some witnesses on the part of the defendant were examined to show that the complainant in the latter part of the disturbance was clinging to some man, wnom she called her husband. The complainant, upon being recalled, snnled at the notion of having a husband, and repeated her former account.

Mr. Paynter, with an earnest desire to do justice to all parties, remanded the case till Saturday. Mr. Smith, of Denbigh-street, solicitor, appeared for the defendatt, and in the course, of his cross examination of complainant elicited from her that she oidy passed by the name of Lawrence, her real name being Easdon, besides other matters affecting her credit. John Wise, 75 said he had known the complainant for five years he had seen her out at all hours of the night with different men, and she had told him that she was married to a coachman.

The constable in the case, who had been told by the magistrate to make inquiries into the complainant's character, said that she had.been living at her present abode with a man for the last four or five months, and represented liini as her husband. Mr. Paynter immediately dismissed the complaint. THAMES Saturday. Forging Seamen's Certificates.

William Moran, an elderly man, better known in the district as Paddy Moran, who keeps a lcdging-liouse for sailors, in Shad well and Miduiel Wliite, a tall man, his runner and touter, were broughtbefore Mr. D'Eyncourt, charged underthel70tliseo. of the Merchant Slsipping Act, the 17 and 18 Victoria, cap. 104, with making a false certificate, or report of the service, qualifications, conduct, and character of a seaman named James Stokes, which offence is declared by the act to be a misdemeanour, punishable by fine or imprisonment, or both. Mr.

E. H. E. Coleman, clerk to the registrar of seamen, said he was directed by the Board of Trade to bring this case before tho magistrate and explained that on the discharge of a seaman, the captain of a ship'in which he had served was bound to give him a certificate of sendee and discharge, in a form sanctioned by the Board of Trade, specifying the period of his service, and the time and place of his discharge. It was, however, optional with the captai'i of a ship to give- a certificate of conduct and character.

In this case a certificate of service and discharge, and a certificate of conduct and character had been forged for the purpose of obtaining a ship for a seaman, and imposing upon some captain. The system had been carried on to a considerable extent, to tho detriment of the commercial marine of this country, and the Board of Trade were determined to prosecute in every case that came to their knowledge. James Stokes, a seaman, stated that ho was living at No. 6, Artichoke-hill, Shadwell. He was discharged from the ship Theodosia last Sunday eight weeks.

About three weeks ago he had a conversation with the prisoner Moran, aud told him he had lost his certificate of service and discharge from the Theodosia, and had also lost a ship in consequence. White, at the instigation of Moran, agreed to write him out another certificate, in the name of another man named David M'Donald, and he was enabled by means of that false certificate to ship on board the Guada-loupe in the name of David M'Donald. He was taken out of that ship on a charge of stealing a shirt, the property of one of his shipmates, brought to that court, and discharged. The Guadaloupe sailed without him, and on Friday he was with his boarding master, and met the prisoners. They adjourned to a public-house, where Moran treated him and his boarding master with some gin.

Moran gave AVhite a penny, and desired him to procure a printed form of service and discharge at the nearest stationer's, and on his return with it White filled up the form, and then Moran wrote out a character for him. Mr. Coleman put in the forged documents, made out in the most clumsy manner imaginable. The certificate of service and discharge stated that Thomas Alford, of Montrose, had served in the Arendina, of Bristol, 200 tons register, on a coasting voyage, and in the capacity of able seaman, from the 14th March, 1855, to the 7th March, 1856, aud that ho was discharged in London. The false certificate was signed, John Brown, master, David Jones, mate, and Arthur Ready." The false certificate of character written by Moran was as follows I hearby certify that the bearer, Thomas Alford, sailed with me for these last four monnths, during which time he conducted himself to my satisfaction, and I can recommend him a steddy good seaman.

John Brown." Mr. D'Eyncourt remarked that the documents put in were clumsy forgeries indeed, and put some questions to Stokes, who said he paid 20s. to Moran for the false certificate with which he shipped on board the Guadaloupe. He only obtained a false certificate of service and discharge when he entered on board the Guadaloupe. Charles Bond, a seaman's lodginghouse-keeper, of No.

6, Artichoke-hill, who was privy to the whole transaction, and then gave information to Mr. Coleman, was examined at great length, and made a rambling which it appeared that Stokes was lodging with him, and that he cashed his advance note obtained from the captain of the Guadaloupe, which would not be honoured because tho seaman had not sailed with the ship. He accused Moran and White of instigating men. to run away from their ships after their advance notes were cashed, by which he (Bond) and others were sufferers. On Friday night he went out with his lodger, Stokes, for the purpose of waiting on Moran to obtain the seaman's old discharge from the Theodosia, which he had reason to believe was in Moran's hands.

On the way to Moran's house he met him and said, You are at your old tricks again, getting men to run away." Moran said, "Bring the man down to nie, and I will get the old discharge." He accompanied the prisoners and stokes to a public house to see what they do, and witnessed the making out of the false certificate and false character. Mr. D'Eyncourt said the fictitious character was signed in the first instance John Bond, and the pen had been drawn across the name of Bond and Brown written underneath. Bond said he did not want his name to appear on the certificate, and after Bond was written Moran erased it and substituted the name of Brown. Mr.

D'Eyncourt How came yon to give information when you assisted and connived at the transaction Bond I did it for the purpose of discovering these cases of fraud. Mr. Coleman said there were a set of fellows who managed to obtain false certificates, and shipped people who were no seamen as well as those who were, and charged an enormous discount for cashing advance notes. Captains of ships were completely at the mercy of such fellows, who shipped persons as able seamen, and when they got to. sea were no seamen at all.

Police Constable Bray, No. 43 said that when ho took White into custody he found two forged certificates of service and one forged certificate of character and conduct. On the back of one was the name of Orflow. The prisoners, in their defence, admitted everything alleged against them, and that the forged documents put in were written by them. Moran added, "I thought it no harm to write these lines." Wliite also said, Your worship that man gave me a discharge and I filled it up." Mr.

D'Eyncourt, at the request of Mr. Coleman, who said he could not complete his case that day, remanded the prisoners until Thursday next, and said their explicit admissions removed all difficulties. Fearful Case of Wife Beating. Thomas James Painter, a well dressed man, about 30 years of age, was -brought up on a warrant, before Mr. D'Eyncourt, charged with assaulting his wife.

The prisoner, who had all the appearance of a drunken man, conducted liimself very strangely, aud in a maudlin style made an apology for not attending on Friday to a summons. The fact was (hiccup). Yes, he said, it his name was Painter not Paynter all right. Mr. D'Eyncourt Is this man intoxicated Wittleton, No.

152 an officer of the court, said the WORSHIP-STREET Saturday. Extraordinary Case. A stylishly-dressed man, who gave tho name of Thomas Strmoa, and described himself as a printer, was brought up on remand, beforo Mr. Ham-mill, upon an adjourned charge of having picked the pocket of a lady in an omnibus. At tho former examination, which occurred before Mr.

D'Eyncourt, the prosecutrix, Miss Emma Sophia Amy, a young lady residing in Clareniont-terraco, Hornsey-road, stated, that while proceeding along Finsbury pavement in a Favourite" omnibus, on tho afternoon of Wednesday last, a communication wa3 addressed to her by another passenger, which induced her to examine her pocket, when she discovered that her pocket-book, containing some silver money, and other property, had been abstracted. The prisoner was sitting next to her at the time she discovered her loss, and the gentleman who had called her attention to his proceedings, at once charged him with having robbed her, which ho stoutly denied, but feeling satisfied that her pocket-book was quite safo a short time previous, she stopped the omnibus, and the prisoner was given into custody. Mr. John Francis Birch, ft law stationer, residing the Kingsland-road, who had occupied a seat opposite the lady at the time in question, stated that the prisoner entered tho omnibus at the Angel, and was shortly followed by two well-dressed boys, who desired to bo set down at Walbrook. While they were passing down tho City-road his attention was attracted to the conduct of the prisoner, who was sitting close to the prosecutrix, and on watching him attentively he distinctly noticed a suspicious movement of his hand under the folds of his capacious circular cloak, which lie had thrown completely over the front of his dress.

Witness at length spoke to the prosecutrix, and having ascertained that her pocket-book had disappeared, he desired the conductor to allow no one to leave the omnibus, but the latter, in spite of the injunctions, immediately afterwards opened the door for the egress of the two lads, whom he believed to havo acted in collusion with the prisoner, and they both alighted some distance from the place they had indicated as their destination. The prisoner, who earnestly protested his innocence, was then remanded for a week but in consequence of an earnest communication which waB subsequently forwarded to tho Court by the prosecutrix, he was brought up this day from the House of Detention, when all tho witnesses wore in attendance by order of the magistrate. On the case being called on, tho prosecutrix stepped forward in an agitated maimer, and expressed her deep regret at having acted with such precipitation, as she discovered on reaching home that the pocket book which she imagined she had lost wa3 still in her possession, and she trusted, therefore, that the prisoner would be at once discharged from custody. In answer to questions from the magistrate, the prosecutrix further explained that, on returning home on the evening of the supposed robbery, she accidentally found the missing property hi the pocket of a morning dress, which she had taken off before she left home. Mr.

M'Bride, the chief usher, here intimated that he felt it his duty to apprise the magistrate that the prosecutrix in her evidence bofore Mr. D'Eyncourlsdistinctly stated that she had occasion to take out the poeket-book, which she carefully replaced in her pocket just beforo she entered the omnibus. The prosecutrix replied that she was decidedly error if she had used such an observation, but she had no recollection of having given such evidence, and she wished it to bo clearly understood that the prisoner had been given into custody at the instance of Mr. Birch and not by herself. The witness Birch said that ho felt fully justified in the course he had pursued, and it was rather a remarkable circumstance that when the chargo was preferred against him tho prisoner repeatedly asseverated his conviction that the lady would find her pocket-book at home, where she had no doubt left it.

Mr. Hammill said that it was certainly a very extraordinary case, but as it appeared evident that no robbery had been committed he could not proceed any further in the matter, and should order the prisoner to be discharged. SOTJTirW ARK Saturday. Apprehension of a Gang op Wholesale Coiners, and Desperate Attack on the Police. William Brovm, John Kitchen, George Jackson, George Green, and Zouisa Milton, were brought before Mr.

a'Beckett by Inspector Eremian and several constables of the and divisions, charged with manufacturing a large quantity of counterfeit half-crowns, shillings, and sixpences also with having in their possession plaster of Paris moulds, metal, and implements of oveyy description necessary to carry on an extensive business. Inspector Brennan stated that from directions ho received he proceeded at twelve o'clock at noon, with Ser-eeants Bryant, Brennan, Ncvillo, and Evans, to Ho. 1, Unicorn-court, Kent-street. As soon as they entered the latter a female put her head out of the second-floor window, and raised an alarm. Neville and Evans at once rushed into the house, followed by witness as quick as he could, and met Jackson and Kitchen running out of a room on the second floor.

Witness seized hold of tho latter, when Jackson kicked him with great violence in the lower part of the body. Neville and Evans were then in tho room securing the other prisoners, when Brown jumped over him and Jackson and Kitchen, and came in contactwithSergeant Brennan, when they both rolled down stairs like two balls. Witness, however, 'kept hold of the two men, although they resisted him greatly, and inflicted such blows and kicks on his body that he believed some of his ribs were broken. "At that time another man rushed out of the second floor room, jumped out of the window, and made iiis escape. Witness succeeded in dragging Kitchen and Jackson into the room, when they were secured and Neville and Evans captured Green and Louisa Wilton, Their conduct then became so outrageous that he was com-Delled to send to the police-station for assistance, as he believed they would have been rescued, as they were completely surrounded by coiners and smashers.

Alter they were safely secured, witness searched the man and found more than a hundred and fifty counterfeit pieces, consisting of half-crowns, shillings, and sixpences, a 1 manufactured with a peculiar white metal having a sound resembling silver when rung on a table. They had evidently just been cast, as they were in an unfinished state. In the same room they found two plaster of Palis moulds partially broken up, which had recently been used for making half-crowns and shillings. There was also a ladle on the fire, containing fused metal, several files, sand, acids, and every article necessary for making counterfeit coin. Witness asked his worship for a remand, to enable him to communi year or her age.

Brooke, a poultry and provision salesman in Leadenhall-market, against Mr. J. Noldwritt, a Custom-house agent, was, after an additional six hours' investigation before the Hon. G. C.

Norton, brought to a conclusion. The proceedings, it will be recollected, arose out of an action brought by the London and County Bank against Mr. Noldwritt, to recover 500, the amount of a bill of ex-chance bearing his endorsement, but which endorsement on the trial he swore to be a forgery, and the jury inconsequence gave a verdict in his favour. The effect of this was to fix on Mr. Brooke the stigma not only of forgery, but of perjury, as he in his evidence for the plaintiffs iu the action swore positively that the endorsement to the bill was in the handwriting of the defendant, and that it was written in his presence by Mr.

Noldwritt. At the conclusion of tho proceedings Mr. Norton said Perhaps its only fail- to the parties that I should say a few words as to the reasons that led me to the conclusion that this is a case that it is my duty to send for trial. Anyone who has heard tho evidence wiH, I am sure, agree with me that it is a very peculiar case, and one attended with a great many difficulties. There is a conflict of evidence, and particularly scientific evidence, but I confess that tho only solution I can give tho whole transaction is that which struck me on the first day of the examination, and which has been since confirmed, and that is, that it is my bounden duty to send this case for trial.

The case is peculiar in this respect, that not only is the defendant upon his trial, but the prosecutors also and therefore it is very necessary, indeed, that the whole particulars of this case should bB submitted to the investigation of a jury. It seems to me that the only way of reconciling the facta whioh have actually taken place, is Jersey, South Western from ditto, and tho Express from Havre.
