This was the certificate meeting in the ease of W. Strange, amt., bookseller, Patenioster-row. Ili, debts were 1,5741.. about. two thirds of which sum consisted of law costs and unpaid railway calls; the aunts were inconsiderable. Mr. ShlArtl, fur the assignees, offered no opposition. Mr. Link later suit ho appeared in support of the bank rupt's application; and his hunout would probably bear in mind what named at the last examination ; the bankrupt might be suntewhat prejudiced were he not to endeavour to t tplaio those cireunotnnees. The meeting for the last examination of the bankrupt was tired for the 21st of February last, and be was then opposed by two ur three creditors. Ile had been required to explain how he had disposed of between 701.11. and 8001. which he had me, iced from his son for the sale of his business in Paternoster-row; and in consequence of the proceedings against hint et the instance of Prince Albert he had been udliged to go to France. Ile an unable at the moment to answer t h e questions put to him, the opposition having come spun him by surprise ; and it was singular that none of the opposing creditors now made their appearance. Ilia last examination hail beta adjourned with leave to come up again at the end of six month., protection being granted bun in the meantime. It slid not appiar why ars long an adjournment hail lam ordered ; lot?, at the esnirati.n of that tins... having given a aetismetory statement to the ass.gn..e. a. to the way in which hr had disposed of the 710.11., he was allowed to [KVA on the 10th of September lat. The gib Sr put to him at the former meeting had chit fly ball reference to the mode in whirl it.. had carried on business in the early part of his life , . and bad extended over a vital of twenty or thirty yeas. Ile bad bran bankrupt in 11429; and in 183.1 and USW took toe benefit of the Insolvemt Act. This was only illtr portant as showing that he ientlit to have exercised greater raution in his subsequent trading; and this was riptide of proof from the balance-sheet. It commented on the lot of January, 1817, with a capital of 1,393 t , and from that time to August, 18In, his trade as too. seller had been suc osafid. Ile then had the misfortune to become acquainted with Mr. Judge, who employed lion to publish a catalogue of certain royal etchings, which Judge had iu his pusses lion. That was in October, 1818 and the publication was not to take place till the consent of her M nesty had been obtained. One of the catalogues was sent for this purpose to her Majesty at Windsor ; this INVMeiI to have given—he knew not Irby it shall—very great Wien., • and, daring the Imuktrapt's absence in Yorkshire, his an ;hen attending to his haloes..., Mr. White, the private /solicitor of Prince Albert, call d at the shop to see if lie c o uld purchase one of the catalogue.; but no sale of them had been permitted to be amok until her Majesty's consent should be ob tained. It was on the 17th of October that Mr. White called ; eta the 18th no communication was mole from him, but tin the 20th an information was filed, mid a bill, and it was supported by affidavits, one being that of Prince Albert himself. The bankrupt came up to London immediately; buten injunction bad been obtained before he nrove.l. Ile was obliged to seek to dissolve that injunction. and made application to the court for the purpose. The question wa. one of great nicety, and occupied a good deal of the attention of the court. 'lke question was, whether Mr. Strange cook! be prevented front making use of the busowledge lie had obtained by iapecting the etekings, and forming a catalogue therefrom; but the Vice-Chaueelior Was of opinion that a the etchings hail been improperly obtained by Judge, who had some literary connexion with some of the local paper. at Windsor, and bad obtained ropies of some of the etchings from a printer there, the in jenetion oeght to be confirmed. Mr. Strange was the ob ject of four suits and four (Thlllll3l informations. The power of the individual as against the crown was nothing ; but sr confident was Mr. Straisge's solicitor in the suckers of his ease that he did nut ask fur any costa in the progrea of the .ease. Thaw coats now amuuntrd to nearly 8001., and there were HO/. costs in curred to an action brought against the bankrupt by a railway company to enforce payment:of calls. The question WAS whether the bankrupt had been justified in incurring these costs. It was admitted on the hearing by the f4slicitor.6..ucral that Strange might Mire been deceived by Judge ; and the Vies Chancellor, alter commenting with great severity on the conduct of Judge, by implication ac quitted Strange of anything sroug. There was an appeal to the Lord Chance Iler,whith was supported by three eminent counsel, and the bankrupt could not be blamed fur defend ing himself from what he considered as au aggression, for he had no intention of publishing thew catalogues but with the consent of the tastes and Prince Albert. Theo, while ha WAS 2 st) glib:. from home, he was suddenly made a party to the suit.

The costa were enormone, and he had been anxious to escape them. Her Majesty's advisers said they did not wish;to visit him with all these coats, but were quite Content to believe that he bad fallen into an error, and hail been deceived by Judge. The iujunetieu we., therefore, made perpetual; but in the ease of Mr. Strange, cuts were not asked for. Thu proved that Mr. Strange was not regarded as at all culpable in the matter, or they would have pressed fur oats against him also. Application was made for all the catalogues to be given up, and Mr. Strange had cum plied with this as far as was in his power. This was in January of the prcei at year. Ilad the advisers of Prince Albert thought that the bankrupt was equally to blame with Judge he would have been incarcerated as well as the other defendant. None of the costs had been proved against this estate. Except fur the law cues appearing in the balance-sheet the debts would have been so much less, as they Win still owing. But for these proceedings he might have devoted much more attehtion to his business, which might have been as successful u theretofore. He had been obliged to leave the country ; and the consequence was • falling off in his 'maims', and the expenditure had exceeded the profits. He had then sold his business, and the expenditure of the proceeds had been the subject of in quiry at the examination meetings. Lie had satisfied the emigaires as that point, and had readered theta all the as sistance is his power, having been always at their call during the last six months. la the suit referred to the bankrupt had been struggling for hie own property and liberty, and eight wet now to be visited on that account.

His Honour, in giving judgment, said this was the case of a bankrupt who bad tailed previously, and who ought, therefore, to have been very cautions in his mode of carry ing on business. He had, however, carried on rather a hazardous description of business, one that involved him in large law costs, and was likely so to involve him. Not merely in one casually had he incurred such costs, hut in several instances he had had action, brought against him. For an alleged piracy from the London News, he had in curred 1504. in costs; in an action for libel brought against him by Sewell and Cross, he had incurred a loss of 161 i. for costs; and the solicitor of Sewell and Cross had also a claim against him fur libel, the amount of which did not appear. It was not, therefore, by nitre accident that he had been involved in the particular litigation which had been made the main subject of argument ; for it appeared that he very generally dealt in that manner. He was known as a publisher of thine works which served to feed the morbid appetite of persons to investigate that which they bad no business to pry into. It was consistent with his established character, esta blished by the publication of other works, for which he had been convicted of li-el—that he should be selected as the party to publish the catalogue of stolen goods in this case. 'the court entered nut in the slightest degree into the position of those who had a right to complain. The judgment would have been precisely the same had he pub• fished a catalogue, surreptitiously obtained, of the gallery or library of any party, nobleman, or trader in these realms. Ile must have seen on the face of it that he was about to [ do that the propriety of which WAS very douhtful ; and this he had admitted by declaring that he would not pug• lisle the catalogue till he had received the sanction of the parties concerned. He bad not received that sanction. Lid he immediately retract ? Certainly not. There was no esidenc'• of anything like retractation till a long sub sequent period. He alleged that he had been deceived by the opinion of learned advisers. Those opinions as to mat ters of law might have been perfectly correct ; but no trader had any right to peril a very large sum of his credi tors' money in maintaining an abstract proposi tion of right. He had only to consider whether he was engaged in a legitimate business, whether it was likely to produce a return in the ordinary way, and to jus tify the risk he ran. This was not the course that had been pursued ; he hied continued to defend, instead of at once declining to publish, and giving up the collies. Ile might very readily have supposed that such a proposition would have been liberally met, that the ezpense of the copies would have been paid hiss, and there would have been nothing more about it. The consequence of his pursuing an oppo site course had been to incur a very large amount of law costs, not the whole of the 880/., for a portion of that had been for railway litigation. Here, again, the bankrupt had gone out of his regular business as a bookseller, and had speculated in the purchase of railway shares to a very large amount—so large that the deficiency on that account was about I.ooo'. *then, instead of meeting his difficulties as he ought to have done, he had transferred the stock to his son, and gone away to France: and his mode of answering the questions as to that fact had been anything but satisfac tory. 'the greater portion of his accounts were unvouched, or stated from memory; his books hail been loosely kept; the balances not ascertained, and the cash book not sum med up. Upon the whole, considering that he had incurred very heavy responsibilities, which might become charges on the estate—tnat he had incurred debts fur law costs must unjustifiably, and had kept very insufficient accounts, his certificate would be of the third class, to be granted at the end of twelve menthe from the time originally appointed fur thee last rumination. Mr. Linklater naked if his Honour would be pleased to grant protection for the short interval which had to elapse ? His honour granted protection. THE EXPRESS, THURSDAY EVENING, DECEMBER 18, 1851. inchouve of Andrew Carpenter, and stealing a cash boa, pair of bouts, mot 111. in gold and silver. Serjeaut Corp. titer, of the It division, stated that on the 28th of November the house of prosecute:, a grocer, in London-street, Greenwich, was broken into, and the things named in the indictmt nt stolen, and from information he had abut thu eld.r prisoner, who was au es caped transport, end whom he had traced from Bethnal-green to Vicarage-place, Greenwich, he for several days and nights kept a watch upon the latter named place, and on the 4th of this month be saw Clifford come out of the house in Vicarage-place and look cautiously about him. He then went in again, and shortly afterwards came out with his father, Reid, and they went sonte dis tance along the road, followed by witness, who, as soon as ho could, got the assistance of some other officers and took both prisoners into custody. They then went to the house in Vicarage-place, which is rented by Hamilton, who is married to a daughter of lieu, and they there found the cash boa belonging to the prosecutor, and also the boots. Upon further search a dark-lantern and crow-bar, a bag of bullets and a mould, some powder and caps, and a pair of percussion pocket-pistols loaded with ball and capped read) for instant use, lying on the sideboard in the sitting room. In Reid's pocket was a percussioo cap and some money, and upon Clifford a marked coin, sworn to by the prosecutor. The wife of Hamilton gave the police every facility to search the place, and said her father had done the robbery, and that her husband knew nothing of it. The loaded pistols, it appeared, had horn prepared by the elder prisoner to take away the life of the first officer that matte an attempt to capture him. The prisoner Hamilton received a most excellent cha 'weer. The jury found the prisoners Reid and Clifford Guilty of the burglary; and Hamilton of receiving the property; re commending him to mercy, as they thought he and Clifford bad been drawn into it by the elder prisoner. It was stated that Reid, in 1837, was convicted of a burglary in the Old Jewry, and sentence of death was recorded, and he was transported fur life; be escaped, was re-captured, and again, in 1842, was tried at this court, and transported for life. He again escaped, and came to this country in October last. Reid said that death was pre ferable to the horrors he bad undergone as a transport. Ile had been knocked about and scourged until his body was one mass of lacerations. lie would prefer death to being again sent out of the country. lie then began to cry most piteously, and called on God to spare his boys, whom he vehemently declared were innocent. The court sentenced him to fourteen years' transporta tion, Clifford to twelve months', and Hamilton to four months' imprisonment. The Common Seijeant said that the sergeant's conduct had been most meritorious in effecting the capture of so dssoorste a character, and ordered kis•• sward of dl. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS.—YESTERDAY. Bank. Ma. SkIJI OM ADAM% AMITANT Jesus. CV alUta CHAIM& Either Wyatt, a person of lady-like appearance, was in dicted for having stolen two pieces of soap. She surrendered in court. The prosecutor was an oil and colour man, carrying on business at lloxton, and from the evidence of a boy who was in his service it appeared that a little after twelve o'clock on the 22nd of November the prisoner entered the shop and asked for a small quantity of blue. She went and stood against a tray on which a number of pieces of soap were lying for the inspection of customer., and took lap two of the pieces and placed them in her pocket. The boy having observed this told the prosecutor, who sent for a police officer and gave her into custody. She begged fur mercy, uud said she had a baby at home, but the charge was persisted in, and on being taken before a magistrate was committed for trial, but allowed to go out on bail. Mr. Parry, in addressing the jury, did not deny the facts as deposed to by the boy, but urged that the prisoner had no really felonious iutention when she took the soap. She was the wife of a gentleman of great respectability and good circumstances, and it was not therefore because she was in any want of soap, that she committed this act. In Octuber, a month before this transaction, she was confined, and that event the jury would hear from her medical man had greatly enfeebled her mind, and that gentleman would prove that she was a person of highly nervous temperamen very excitable, and had since the event alluded to, been subject to hallucinations. It was an extraordinary fact that during the time she was ill after her confinement, she com plained to her nurse that too much soap was used in the house. and that when told afterwards that not more than the usual quantity had been used, she denied all knowledge of having made any complaint of the kind. Coder these circumstances he should ask the jury not to arrive at the conclusion that the prisoner was nut guilty on the ground of insanity, but to say by their verdict that she was in so feeble, yet excitable a state of mind arising from extreme nervousness, as not to be quite cognisant of what she was about, and not fully capable of controlling her actions. She was a gentlewonsao in every sense of that term, her hus band held • public and a responsible position, but for various reasons which the jury would readily comprehend, he (Mr. Parry) did not feel himself at liberty to be more precise upon that subject. A medical gentleman was then examined. Ile gave evi dence to the effect stated by the learned counsel, and stated that in his opinion, the prisoner was excessively nervous and excitable, and had hem particularly so, both before and after her confinement. Other Oflitlitt was given. Thu learned Judge then cornered up, and remarked that it was a well-known fact that women, not only during pregnancy, but even after their confinement, were subject to impulses of a very singular yet almost uncontrollable nature. The jury returned a verdict of Not Guilty. AssAULT. John Argent, a powerful-looking man, apparently about 4, years of age, was indicted fur an assault with intent upon a little Fir], 12 years of age, named Ransom. The jury convicted him of a common assault, and Mr. Witham sentenced him to three months' imprisonment. KEEPINU UNLA.WFUL HOUSE& Henry Pepper was indicted for keeping a common brothel in the parish of St. Luke's. On the part of the prosecution, evidence was given to show that the house, or rather thu houses in question, Nos. 21 and 2'2, Baltic-street, St. Luke's, were frequented at nights by prostitutes and men, and Inspector lirennan, of the 6 division, and two police of f icers, gave evidence of their having seen prostitutes enter the houses at all hours of the night, and of their having repeatedly been to the houses in search of prostitutes who had committed rob beries, and other parties who were charged with felony. One prostitute, who lived in the house, was tried in this court in the name of Ward, and convicted of robbing a man, about twelve months ago. The defence was that the houses were not brothels, and a number of witnesses were examined to contradict the case for the prosecution. They asserted that the houses were let out to lodgers, mostly respectable married persons, and that they were never known to be the resort of prostitutes. One of the witnesses, who looked a mere boy, and who said his name was Hubbard, stated that he was married, and lived with his wife in one of the houses is question. lie had been married twelve months, and was by trade a pocket-book maker. The house was nut a brothel. Mr. Parry—Are you • pocket-book maker or a pocket book taker. (A laugh.) Witness—A pocket-book maker. Mr. Parry—You say you are married—now, be careful— where were you married? Witness—Yes, I am married, and have been 12 months. Mr. Parry—Upon your oath, sir, where were you married ? Witness (hesitatingly)—Where, did you ask, sir? What ' does that matter ? The Judge—Answer the question, or I will commit yoa. Witness—lt was at Cripplegate Church. Mr. Parry—Now, I caution y,u. Will you swear that you are married at all. Come, we happen to know some thing of you, Mr. Hubbard. itness—Well, then, I ain't married at all; I live with a young woman. Mr. Parry—Then you told a lie, when you said you were married ? Witness—That's it, sir. Mr. Parry—Have you ever been in trouble, Mr. Hub bard ? Witness—l don't understand you. Mr. Parry—Have you ever been in prison? Witness—What's that to do with this— Mr. Parry—Have you ever been in prison ? If I asked you if you now steal pocket-books, you might decline to answer, but you arc not protected from answering my question. Were you not sentenced to six months' hard labour tor picking a man's pocket of a watch? The witness refused to answer. He was threatened with committal if he did not, and he then said, "Yes, that's right, tar.' . The Judge—Wan you tried in this court ? W itness —Yes. The Judge—Before me ? Witness—l don't know. Mr. Barry replied, and contended that the evidence for the prosecution was not at all shaken by that for the defence. The Jury found the defendant Guilty. The court sentenced him to six months' hard labour, and to find sureties, himself in 1001. and two sureties of 241. each, to keep the peace and to be of good behaviour for six months further.

After our report was despatched yesterday, the case for the prosecution having closed, Mr. Clarkson then addressed the jury for the defendant. He said that although he was aware, from the prejudice that must naturally be excited in the mind of the jury by a cue of this description, that he should have a very difficult task to perform; yet he trusted he should be able to satisfy them that the defendant ought not, in law, to be convicted of this offence. In a moral point of view, he should not in sult them by attempting for a moment to deny that the de. kndant hail conducted himself, in his trading transactions, in a most reckless and improper manner; and for that conduct he would be justly amenable to punishment in the Court of Bankruptcy : but the question the jury now had to &vide Was whether he had been guilty of a misdemeanour under th is statute, and whether the evidence would justify them iu saying that he was guilty of that offence. The learned counsel then called the attention of the jury to the terms of the statute, and contended that there was no evidence of the defendant having obtained the pro perty from Messrs. lordati by the false pretence required t i o ., s t u e liso o rt such au f being there on c y ut ;ir a oo n [ l that t'at c on wa e fa c Zl t rad colourably carrying on his trade, the evidence showed that he really was so engaged, and that the article was actually required for a particular purpose. Mr. Clarkson then ob served upon the facility that appeared to caist in this metro polis fur the disposal of property and turning it into money at a ruinous sacrifice, remarking at the name time that he found in times of commercial pressure such pro ceedings were but too frequently smarted to, and that it would be a great hardship to puuish criminally those per sons who might be compelled to pawr. goods shortly after they had obtained pomusion of them, fur the purpose of supplying their temporary necessities. The learned counsel concluded by entreating the jury not to strain the law to meet a particular case, and said that if they were not satis fied that the specific charge had been legally established, it was their duty to declare that opinion by their verdict, whatever they might think of the proceedings of the de fendant in a mural point of view. Baron Alderson summed up. He said that the court were clearly of opinion that the count in the indictment re ferring to the case of Messrs. Allepson could not be sup ported, and the jury would, therefore, only have to con sider the other on which the defendant was charged with obtaining the property of Messrs. Fordati. His lordship called the atteution of the jury to the terms of the statute, and said that if they steaM be of opinion that at the time the goods were obtained die defendant had no intention of using them fur the pummel d his trade, but that he in. tended to pawn them, is that era they would be justified in finding him guilty this indictment. lie must say, however, that theettfeaiw to support such a view of the case appeared to NI be rather derider, but the jury were the judges Ann the question of tat, lad is WAS bilt them to form their ovaosaclusione mei the The jury retired, and wen ablest shed as fsatr, mem they returned isle wait aid pie a verdict of ONO* agaiast the defending, Baron Aldirmen a 1 4 =e y eettiemee, told the defendant that he had been the jury, after full delibera tion, of the Whoa Of Obtaining the goods of Messrs.

Elam. _ _ Mr. liuTldiestonc appeared for the prosecution, and said that he should only be able now to give such evidence as would justify a remand, as he could not produce the officials from Doctors' Commons to-day. Mr. Lewis, for the prisoner, said that unless evidence of perjury was given at once, he bad a right to claim her die ter,g:but, as she wished fora full inquiry into the mat should only ask that she be enlarged on her own re- V atnees. . iladdleatone said he should require very substantial bail. Mr. Lewis rid if this severe course was pursued he should insist ow hie client's &mbar^ unless evidence of perjury was g 0 to at once.

In 1828 Kis Georgina Elam was born, and in 1829 Lieutenant Elam stied. Mrs. Elam died in 1833, and Miss Elam was taken charge of by Mrs. Dawson, the prisoner, who had been under the protectioa of the Earl of Portarlington, and who represented herself as a friend of her mother, and that she would take care of her. Miss Elam went to school with Mn. DAWI , OII'S daughters, at Mrs. Robinson's, at Ealing. Miss Elam continued under Mrs. Dawson 's care till she went to Rouen, in France, about two years ago, to Knish her educa- ' tion. In January, 1851, an advertisement appeared in the Times for the " next of kin of the late Mn. Elam," bat Miss Elam did not hear of it until October last, and on ap plication at the place indicated in the advertisement, she wu referred to Doctors'-commons, where she ascertained that Phew Lawson had taken out letters of ailmini,tra tion to the estate of Mrs. Elam, under the title of her daughter and next of kin, and had gained possession of her property, which was sworn at under 5,000.. The amount was afterwards sworn to be under 4,000/., and the stuck had es been sold out by Mrs. Dawson. Miss Georgina Elam stated that she was 23 years of age, and lived at 3, Torrington•street, Torrington-square. She did not remember her mother's features, but recollected liv ing with her in C arzon-street and afterwards in Clargewstrect, She remembered the time of her mother's death, and did not recollect seeing Mrs. Dawson before that. She was then at Brighton, and Mrs. Dawson came and took her away, and placed her at Mrs. Robinson's with her daughters, where she remained until June, 1831. She was brought up as one of Mrs. Dawson's children, who was very kind to her, called her mother, and was called Georgina Dawson. She had ceased living with her for two years, and had since resided at ltouen with some friends. She had been at Mrs. Robinson's as late as 1843. Mrs. Dawson took her away. Mrs. Dawson always called her mother Mrs. Elam, and had asked her if she recollected her. The witness became pos sessed of her baptismal certificate about two months ago, which she had obtained previous to her going to France. She remembered being called Mies Elam, but she was not baptised till she was three years old , er friends applied to Mrs. Dawson to know under what name she should be married in France, and she said in her own name " Elam," and offered to get the certificate. At this time witness had the certificate, on dis covering which Mrs. Dawson was much annoyed. The reason for obtaining the certificate was, that witness might know who and what she was ; and, also, because in France young ladies could not be married without producing their certificates of baptism. (Laughter.) Mrs. Dawson had never told her her mother had any property. She had made enquiries at Doctors' Commons and found— Mr. Lewis here objected to the witness giving evidence of written documents. After some discussion a verified copy of the warrant of ad m' tration, in which Mrs. Dawson represented herself as the daughter of Mrs. Elam, was tendered. This was also objected to, and it was proposed to call Mr. Cotterill, solicitor to the prosecution, to prove what he saw at Doctors' Commons, and then to ask for a remand, when , all the official documents wou dbe produced. It was, how ever, arranged that the case should be at once adjourned— the' prisoner being required to produce two hail in 2501. each, and be bound herself in 500 f. for her next ap pearance. The necessary bai, being provided, the prisoner was libe rated till the neat hearing. BOW-STREET. Mario Baring was charged with the following barbarous cruelties to animals. Two boys, street-sweepers, and a police constable, de posed that the prisoner was iu the habit of stealing eats in the neighbourhood of Drury-lane, where a great number of those animals hail been lately missed by their owners, and taking the skins off while the cats were quite hot, after sha had cut their throws, its it appeared that the skins were most valuable when taken oil just as the cats were killed. The witnesses stated that they had seen the prisoner throw eats into the gutters, and that it was enough to make them sick to see the dead bodies of the wretched animals exposed reeking hot to public view. One of the witnesses, named S. Smith, a street sweeper, was so disgusted that he remained up one or two nights to watch for the cat destroyer, and saw the prisoner throw them in the gutter in l'arker-street, Drury-lune, on Sunday morning, and also on this moming. Ile told the prisoner that she ought to be ashamed of her self; but she replied that they were not eats, but " wild Ilampshire rabbits." (A laugh.) There were about a dozen cats thrown in the street at one time by the prisoner. The constable stated that he had made inquiries respecting the prisoner, and found that she hail been turned away from one ludginir-house for cooking the cats on the fire. (Sensa tion.) Ile hail frequently seen the urisoner about at night; and his attention having been called to the facts this morns hap he took her into custody. he prisoner said that what had been called cats by the witnesses were rabbits, but if even they were cats, and people chose to cat them, she saw no harm in it. She hail a son a priest, and was known to the clergyman of thu Sar dinian chapel, who assisted her, along with some needle work which she did, to get a living. Mr. Henry said that the evidence clearly rendered the prisoner liable to severe punishment under a recent act of parliament fur the protection of animals. 11cr practices were barbarous in the extreme, and he would punish her to the full extent by sending her to the House of Correction fur three calendar mouths, with hard labour. The prisoner, who seemed quite hardened, was then locked up by the gaoler. W ESTMINSTER. A few days ago, a lad named Thomas White, errand bo in the cmployntent of Mr. Peers, a very respectable printer at Kensington, was brought to this court charged with having uttered a forged cheque fur 461. 10s. upon Messrs. Coutta and Co. It was then stated that on the previous evening the accused bad presented a forged letter purport ing to be nritteu by the Rev. Mr. Rowdier, of 2, Onslow square, enclosing the cheque above named, bearing his sig nature, at the shop of Mr. Kirby, chvescmouger, Queen's buildings, Brompton. Yesterday a very respectable looking man, addressing Mr. Arnold ' , said that he had sten the account of these proceedings in the newspapers. Thinking it very shocking that any person should suffer innocently, he had considered it his duty to come forward and state that the accused was nut guilty of the charge, but that his (the speaker's) son was the person who had obtained the money as described at the request of a person who had accosted him as he was walking along, and had given him the letter and bad received the cash. Upon the lad originally accused having been placed in the felon's dock, Mr. Arnold said to Mrs. Faulkener, who in the first exa mination identified the prisoner—You stated on the former occasion that you were positive he was the person who brought the letter to your shop and obtained the money although he was differently dressed. 1 put the question twice to you, and you stated that you were the more posi tive upon hearing him speak. Have you any reason to alter that opinion? Do you still positively identify him, or have you any doubt ? Mrs. Faulkener-1 don't seem to have the least doubt. Mr. Arnold now requested the stranger who had just made the disclosure above referred to to stand forward with his son. . . . . .... ___. The latter, a boy younger than tbc accused, less than the accused, and as minim him in complexion and appearance as any two persons could possibly be, was then sworn, and said—My name is Henry Hanker. I live with my father, a shoemaker, at 93, Lein-street, Subo I was coming across the park when a man came and tapped me on the shoulder. !le looked to me like a gentleman's servant, and said, " Con you spare ten minutes ; I want you to go on a little errand Mr me 1" 1 said " Yen." I then accompanied him, and he appeared to go into the house, 19, New-street, and fetched me a letter, which he gave mo. He said the family had gut a dinner party, and he therefore could not spare time tug. himself; and I was to take care of what they gave me at Mrs. kaulkener's, to whom I was to deli ver the letter. 1 went with it to Mrs. Faulkener's, the butcher's, as he told me. I had never aecu her before. She gave me 15 sovereigns and a half and a al. note. She put the note in a bag with the gold. I was taking it back to where 1 bad received the letter, when I met the person who had sent me, running down New street without his hat. I gave him the bag, and he gave me a shilling for my trouble. Hu also gave me a letter to put in the post. I don't remember the name of the person to whom it was directed, but the address was Corn hill. Mr. Arnold—ln what park did he meet you ? Witness—ln St. James's—close to New-street, Spring gardens —on Monday three weeks, at about five minutes past five. 1 know nothing whatever of the prisoner. I never saw him till now. Mr. Arnold—You have heard the statement of this wit ness, Mrs. Faulkener. What do you now say with respect to the prisoner's identity ? Mrs. Faulkener —1 went so far as to say I thought it was the boy. Mr. Arnold—Do you say so now ? Mrs. Faulkener-1 don't know any difference of the one boy from the ether. I'm sure 1 didn't mean anything wrong. I'm sure it ha disturbed me very much thinking about it. Mr. Arnold—l was induced to place every reliance upon the weight of your testimony that this was the boy. Mrs. Faulkener—l see now the difference. Mr. Arnold—Can you say now who brought the cheque ? Mn. Faulkener —I certainly say the other must be the boy. Mr. Arnold—You believe not the prisoner? Mrs. Faulkener—Certainly. It was only one sight I got of him, as I said. Mr. Arnold—Pardon me, you went a great deal further. I thought you might be labouring under a mistake, because I have known such things occur as that when persons are sent for to se* a prisoner charged with a similar offence as that committed against them, they have erroneously come to the conclusion that, a aa the caramstanees of the case are similar, be must be the person. 1, therefore, in order that no mistake should affect the prisoner, put question upon question, and you declared that you had no doubt whatever of his identity, and you were even more positive when you heard him speak. Mrs. Faulkener—lt was a sort of faltering voice. Mr. Arnold—You have acted most improperly and un courteously. Owing to the facilities given by the public press, the father of the boy who has given evidence became acquainted with what had taken place here, and has very properly come forward and exonerated the prisoner whom you identified. Had it not been for the report published of the previous examination, the father of the boy would have known nothing about what had occurred hem Your teed mony would have been unitopeaebed, I should have felt it ' my duty to have committed him, awl ha would in all pro behility have been convicted and transported. ' Some witnesses having been calles4 7 wbo gad the seemed an excellent character, and th e Wing stated that they bad no other charge ain't Mr. Arnold immediately d s ahaepd the asseseg, snaring him that he left that court widest the WOWS impaddna upon his character.

They say :—" had you the ballot at vestry meetings your majorities would be three-fold. As it is, many,an honest man gives his vote with trembling, knowing full well that, whether at Brighton, Rome, or Naples, nothing is more vindictive than an enraged priesthood, ' stopped in its course of oppression and persecution. You have achieved a glorious triumph—glorious because your opponents were many and strong. Who were they against whom you have contended ? The vicar and clergy of the parish—the parish officers—a vestry-clerk, acting in the double capacity of vestry-clerk and adviser to the vicar and churchwardens—the chairman of the meet ing—the public puree to pay their expenses if they won—the parish books to refer to for information— s new poor-rate only just out, and nonpayment of which was a voting disqualification—and that at a time (just be fore Christmas) when money is always scarce with the tradesman, and the working man has a dreary time to look forward to ; for with many of them not only money but work—their means for obtaining it—is alm scarce ; but this is the time considered most fit, and chosen by the vicar and his churchwardens, to endeavour to make a church-rate upon them ; so, because they are poor and unable to pay one rate, they must be taxed again. The management of the meeting and its proceedings were entirely in the hands of your opponents, and of course, as might be expected from them, no means were taken to ensure the easy polling of a large number of voters. From ten o'clock till four, on two days, was all the time allowed to poll, although, had they any honesty at all, and wished to obtain the full expression of the rate payers of Brighton on this subject, they would have , re membered that, at this time of the year, many of your fellow-townsmen could ill spare any of the short hours of daylight, and they would have kept the pull open on those two days, at least, till six o'clock in the evening. But what does your chairman care for this ? Bear in mind that it is votes not voters that make a rate. For it will be found, on an analysis of the poll sheets, that on the average 40 voters make 100 votes fur the rate—while it takes, on the average, 62 voters to give 100 votes against the rate, so that the more delay, the more confusion, the fewer persons polled, the better chance of making a rate, or, at all events, of being defeated by a small majority. You, who were present on either of the days of the meeting, will remember the conduct of your chairman, his unblushing par tizanship—his eager canvassing for votes ; by you he will not speedily be forgotten—no language can ade quately describe him—he must be seen to be appre ciated—" Nuns but himself can be his parallel." Notwith , standing all these difficulties, you have nevertheless fought and conquered—and the result of the poll stands as follows: —Against the rate, 1,244 votes, 715 voters ; for the rate, 1,120 votes, 443 voters ; majority against the rate, 124 votes, 8/2 voters. You will do well to keep these facts in remem , brance, against another polling day, should they again wish to measure strength with you. The only way to get abuses ; reformed isto expose them, and that fully. It must be ob. vious to all that the object you have in view is the free sup port of Christianity, unshackled by that compulsory system of forced exactions, which had its origin in the days Of popish superstition, and against which you have, in the recent memorable contest, so boldly an d success fully pro , tested."
