ErriustvieDlPßlDLTlollB.—Two smarteseed young men, named daises Penney and William Alen,Al in the err vies of Mr. Henry Nathan an extensive dew in Great Garden-strest, Whitsehapel,wers charge ith haveng stolen a large quantity of cloth and other goods, the property of their emplane, to the supposed amount of between 3001. 1 and 4001. Mr. Nathaniel Nathan, the prosecutor's eon, stated that on the 16th instant he happened to be passiog down the Whiteohapel-road, and observed Pearosy enter the shop of a pawnbroker. Upon questioning him afterwards se to the cam of his absence, he replied that he had merely gone to his laundrese's to get some linen washed. susp:eions, however, being excited, he determined to call upon the rawnbroker, who, in answer to his inquiries, told him that Pearcey had just before pledged there a piece of cloth, which he produced, and witness immediately identified it as forming pert of a roll which had been safe and entire on the remises oa the preceding day. On returning to the shop he accused Norm of having stolen the cloth, when the prisoner commenced crying, and implored forgiveness ; but witness at once sent for a constable, and insisted upon exam ining his trunks; upon searching which a duplicate was discovered relating to other property of the same description, which had been pledged at another pawn broker's some time preeiously. The prisoner was then re moved to the station, and on being remanded on the charge from this court to the House of Detention, forwarded a letter from there to the proneat r, informing him that the other prisoner, Allen, was equally guilty with himself, and had not only taken an actin part in the various robberies they had committed together, but bad on each occasion received half the produce. Allen was accordingly also given into cus tody, and from farther information they then received, the officer went to the house of Prarcey'e uncle, a commercial clerk, in the neighbourhood of lioxton, where a great num ber of articles, consisting of various pieces of Coburg cloth, prints, silk handkerchiefs, Etc., were banded to him by the aunt of Allen, who stated that the latter had placed them under her owe, alleging that he had purchased them advert- tageonsly with his own money, and intended sending them down to his mother at Exeter. The prosecutor added that this system of depredation must have been carried on for a very considerable period, and that although it was altoge ther impossible, from the extensive nature of their stock, to ascertain with any degree of certainty the actual amount of their losses , be felt satisfied that they could not be inuzir less than nearly 5001. The prisoners were fully committed for trial, but ordered to be brought up on a future day, to afford the police an op portunity of tracing other portions of the stolen property. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. BILL DISCOUNTINO. — LomiI Joel, jeweller and bill dis counter, No. 3, Little Argyll-street, was brought up for further examination, charged with having forged the name of Jaw Marcus Clements, Esq. ' formerly of the 13th Light Drupe's to an acceptance for 1 ,0001. A second charge was unexpectedly brought forward against the prisoner fur having fraudulently obtained three bills for 7501. from Licut • Garland. Mr. Bodkin and Mr Humphreys a - peered for the prom cation, and Mr. Ballantine and Mr. Davis, solicitor, for the defence. The case stood over from the former examination for the production of the bill in question, and for evidence of the mode in which it same into the hands of Mr. Campbell, solicitor, of Warwick-street . Mr. Campbell produced the bill, and stated that it had been left by the prisoner Joel at his office in Warwick street some time ago. Henry Chignon, porter to the firm of which Mr. Campbell was partner, said he received a paper from Mr. Joel to give to Mr. Clements who was not then at the office. He could not recollect the date but he made a memorandum and The it to Joel at the time, and that would fix the date. The paper in question purported to be a bill for 1,0001. Witness gave it to Mr. Reeves, the clerk. Mr. John Pullman, barrister, Shors.house, Hackney, examined.—The paper now produced witness had reciivid from the prisoner Joel, about the mouth of August. 1847. The paper purported to be an account of the transactions of Mr. Campbell with the prisoner, and the way witness be came possessed of the pacer was this: Being in Dublin at the latter end of July, 1847, at **request of the guardians of Mr. Clements, the prosecutor, who was a minor up to the 27th icily, in the English Court of Chancery, he called on Joel, sad asked him to give him an account of all the trans actions between Mr. Clements and himself. Witness had understood that Joel had commenced actions against Mr. Clements at that time. Witness had asked for the account to show to Mr. Clementa's guardians, in order that the bills might be paid if found to be correct. It was en the 30th of July when witness called on the prisoner. In consequence of this visit the prisoner sent an account of the bills passed to him by Mr. Clements, with a request by note for an early settlement of the bills over due. In this account there was no mention of a 1,0001. bill. Prisoner—l had not taken that bill then. Mr. Pullman coctlned.—The prisoner in August called on him, and asked if the account rendered was saudactory ; on which witness told him the account was not such an account as he wanted, as it did not furnish him with a statement of the consideration which had been given for the bills. The prisoner on that oseasion verbally stated the alleged consi deration, end witness requested be would put it in writing, that it might be earn to Mr. Clements' guardians. The abase anneneed, end promised to call with the written I Mamma a dap se two afterwards. The prisoner did not beep his appeleasest, but sent a note of apology, and soon alleweeis the pet aver did bring a statement in writing. India statement there was a bill for 361, and on asking for an explanation the prisoner said it was for a returned bill. The prisoner added there was an mecum for goods staled Mr. Clements also, and at witness's request the account was furnished. Witness saw the prisoner a day or two atter this affair, end sated him if he had given a statement of the whole et the transactions with Mr. Clements. The prisoaer replied that the written statements comprised the whole of the transactions which had passed between Mr. Clements end himself. Witness received at any other time any other statement of bill transactions from the prisoner, and though he had seen the prisoner many times afterwards the prisoner n made mention of any 1,0001. bill. Crasoxisained by Mr. Ballantine —Acted as agent, though not paid agent to Mr. Clements in this negotiation. Had been acquainted with Mr. Clements for some time, and this wee the reason why the guardians had applied to him to inquire into the transactions with the prisoni Ir. Mr. Bodkin asked what amount of money had been sc. Wally advanced by the prisoner to Mr. Clements. He found in the account sent in such charges as 601. for a picture, 601. for diamond shads, and 401. for a diamond ring. Witness had not cast up the amount of actual cash, but understood it to be about 201. out of every 1001. On receiv ing the account from the prisoner, witness had sent it to the guardians. Mr. Clements, however, denied having received We amount of money set down. He said the prisoner pro mised to let him have money, but never performed his pro mise. .For this reason the settlement of the account was postponed. John Marcus Clements Lieut. 13th Light Dragoons, exa mined—Had already declared that the acceptance to the bill for 1,0001. was not In his handwriting. Would pively swear that the signature to the bill was not written by him. Knew perfectly well what accepting bills in blank meant. Hai never accepted bills in blank, end had never written his name across a blank piece of paper with a stamp on it. Crea.examined—Witness had pointed out three forgeries of his name to bill', and had defended actions on that mind. There was a bill purporting to have been accepted by a brother officer, which was paid when it came to ma. tardy. After some conversation it was arranged that the prisoner should come up again next Tuesday. An application on behalf of the London and Dublin Bask was made kr the bill. Kr. Bingham *aught he should be hardly justified in parting with the hill at this stage of the proceedings. It had thersesee letter remain fa the bands of the officers. The emend same wee then brought forward, Mr. Clark son appearing foe the prosecution. The Isms* masa stated that Lieut.

Three other bills were drawn, and otter some demur were accepted by Wilson on the &laureate from the prisoner that the three former bills bad been destroyed. The three last bills were paid when due. The three bills sai radio ave beet tr destroyed then toned up, and actions were pe again& the acceptor for toe amount. Two of these bills was now in the hands of a solicitor named Fitch. Mr. liallantine said he was taken by surprise, as this was the Ant intimation he had received of the ehuge. lie thought th at the inn ov atigation had better stand er until Tuesday. Mr. Ularkson would Ant at,. evidence of the pomession of the bills by Mr Fitch, as his object was tohava them now produced in court. A gentleman from the firm of Weston,f3ymes, and Teesdale, solicitors, Feschurch stint, proved that the father of Lieut. erland had Instituted this prosecution. Mr. Pitch had called at their office on the subject of two bills for 2001. un paid. Mr. Fitch bad commented an action against Wilson for the amount. Had seen the apprebensiou of Joel in the newspapers when be was in France, and this brought him over to commence proceedings, although he bad received in structions SOMe time ago, but Gould nut execute them, as the prisoner could not be found. Mr. Fitch being applied to for the punnet of ascertaining whether he would produce the bills, declined to do ar. He said he had called at Henn. Westoia' office, and bad offered to produce Joel within an hour if anything was wrong. Mr. Bingham said, in the event ota refusal to produce the bills, he mantas such steps as the law empowered him to take . . Mr. Fitch said he ituild not do anything that would pre judice his action a.ainst Wilson. Mr. Clarkson said he had no doubt, is case Mr. Fitch re fused to produce the bills, that the magistrate would be jut. tified in issuing his warrant against him. After a short consultation with Mr. Ballengee, Mr. Fitch said he was willing to produce the bills. Lieut. Garland was then called. He proved that Wolfe called at the barracks, and ultimately introduced him to Joel, who consented to discount his bills, provided they were accepted by a brother officer, named Wilsrn. Witness got Wilson's acceptance to bills, two for 2001. and one for 8501., and gave these to the prisoner. Saw the prisoner some days afterwards who told him she bills were of no um, as they were accepted at the back. Three similar bills were drawn and endorsed by wanes., and witness took them for Wilson's acceptance. Wilson came to town and saw the prisoner, not being satisfied with what had been said about the acceptance being at the back. The prisoner explained the matter to Wilson's satisfaction, and the other three I ills were accepted. The prisoner stated that the previous bills were destroyed. The second batch of bil:s were paid when due. Two of the bills now produced by Mr. Fitca were two of the bills said by the prisoner to have been dest ro yed. The terms on which the discounts were arranged was at first 18 per cent. on the amount, but afterwards witness agreed to take jewellery, and 6001. In cash. fur 1501. in bills. Part of the jewellery was to consist of a diamond pin, 601., and • brooch, 901. Had sot received the brooch. Was of age now, but not at the time of the transaction. Had never repre sented himself of age before the fact was so. Had some letters in his possemuon return' d to him under an arrange ment with Joseph Joel. These letters related to the pay ment of debts owing by witness Would swear that he had ant accepted u many ea fifty bills. The total amount of bills for which witness had rendered himselt liable did not exceed 1,4001., and of that sum 3501 had since been paid. The prisoner knew witness was under age. Mr. Biogkesa said the bills might remain in the custody of the court. Mr. Filch said he could no consent to give them cut of his possession. It,. Bingham replied it would not matter, u enough evidence had been got to supply their loss, even in OW they were destroyed. Mr. Filch said the object in getting the bills 'Combust we to dweat his action. Mr. Clarkson—Oh, no; it is to ascertain whether Mr. Filch gave value for them. The further inquiry was then 11.1jounsed till Tuesday. BENEVOLINCIL—From the Earl of C— 51., and from "E. F." 54., have bem received tor the poor box. LAMBETH. CHLROZ OF CONSPIRING TO DIIPRAVD TRZ PUBLIC. — Ur Robert l'ik, of Treston Cottage, South Lambeth, and Frederick Janus Denser Cape, of the same residence, young men of respectable appearance, wore placed at tbm bar on a charge of conspiring together to defraud Mr. William Matchwick and others at present unknown. Me. George Henty Drew, of Parliament-street, solicitor to the " Arts Union," attended for the prosecution. Mr. Dike. one of the executive committee in c urrying out his Royal Highness Prince Albert's design for the great exhibi tion of the works of art and intimary of all nations in 18.51, and Mr. Wyatt, secretary to the committee, were present. Mr. Drew said the charge against the prix men was that of conspiring to defraud the public by means of an advertise ment published, he believed, in most of the provincial news papers in England, Ireland, and Scotland, and which be should read !Tor • Plymouth paper then in his hands. The learned gentleman here read the following advertisement, which was in • conspicuous part of the paper. " The Great Exhibition of Works of Art and Industry of all Nations in IL% (Pavan, 11.13.11. Prince Albert, President of the Society of Arta.) Treetop Übambees, South Lambeth, London, December,lo49. The avowed object of this undertaking is to afford the ingenious and. industri of all nations an opportunity of testing the relative merits of their works, and to offer the community facilities for determining tbe value of the productions of every clime. The committee have to inform bankers, merchants, traders, and mechanics that the report, as submitted to 11.1t.11. Prince Albert, containing the names of pro moters, subscribers , and all those who have already professed an in tention of aiding the execution of the above undertaking, together with a full description of the number of works of art already sent in, with complete instructions for those who are desirous of co-ope rating with the committee in carrying out 11.1LII.'s design, is now prepared, and will be sent to any part of the United Kingdom on re ceipt of 11l postage stamps.—Frederick Owner, Robert Wallings brook, Assistant Hon. Secretaries." Mr. William Marchwiek, of 23, Green-street, Golden square, stated that he was in the employment of the execu tive committee for promoting the exhibition of works t f art. On the day before he saw the copy of a printed adver tisement (that now produced), and, in consequence, enclosed six postage stamps in a !outer, which he directed to Messrs. Darner and Wallingsbrook, Treston Chamber., South Lam beth, and posted the letter himself. Mr. Drew—Did you receive any answer to that letter ? Witness—No, sir, I did not. Mr. Drew—Well, go on with your statement. Witness—W. U, sir, this morning I went with Mr. Wyatt and two officers to Teuton Chambers, the address in the ad vertisement, and it was arranged that the officers should go first, and that Mr. Wyatt and myself should follow at a given signal. On the signal fixed on being given Mr. Wyatt and myself went up to the place, which is • small cottage, and saw the place in confusion. The prisoners were the only male persons there, but they did not, in my presence, say anything about the advertisement. They are perfect stran gers to me. Mr. M. D. Wyatt, secretary to the executive com mittee appointed by the Society of Arts for carrying out the object and design of his Royal Highness Prince Albert in the great exhibition of works of art and industry of all nations in 1851, stated that nu report containing • list of the werka of art already sent in had been made to his Royal Highness Prince Albert, as no works of art had been sent in. He (Mr. Wyatt) did not know the names of Frederick Darner or Robert Wallingsbrook. They are not the assistant secretaries of the committee. The committee had no know ledge whatever of the advertisement that bad been read by Mr. Drew, and alluded to by the last vitiates. The prisoners were perfect strangers to him. Mr. John Land, inspector of the detective police, said that, in consequence of information which he received from Mr. Wyatt, he went, on that morning, to a small cottage in South Lambeth, and, finding the door closed, be knocked, and it was opened by • female. He inquired for Mr. Darner, or Mr. Wallingsbrook, and was told that neither was there. On knocking at the door, he saw the prisoner Cape get up from a seat, and ran out of the room ; and this circumstance exciting his suspicion, he entered the cottage, and spoke to the woman, when the prisoner Pile came out of the back room in his shirt sleeves, and Sergeant Whisker brought the other prisoner Caps into the same room. He (Mr. Land) told toe prisoners who he was, and said that from information he had received he should take both into custody on a charge of defrauding several persons. Pile directly said he only took the letters in for a person named Mr. Eihett—At that time had you said anything about letters ? Mr. Land—No, sir ; I bad not. Pile further said that he had taken in upwards of 90 letters since Monday, and that he had given Miller 12 or 14 on the night before. Witness then observed that there were a number come that morning by post, and the prisoner Pile replied that there were, but they were for himself. The other prisoner Cape was present all this time. He (Land) then seaeobed the place, and found on the mantlepiece • pocket book, which Pile owned, and on exa mining it discovered on the remains of a lest that had been partly torn a portion of the advertisement in manuscript. A great number of provincial papers, all containing the adver tisement, were about the pl•ce. Jonathan Whisker, a sergeant in the detective pollee, said that in searching the room he found uader a sofa • copy of the Wakefield and West Riding Examiner, addressed to Messrs. Darner and Wallingsbrook, Treston-chambers, South Lambeth, and this paper, he found, contained the adver tisement. The prisoner Cape, in his defence, said that a fort night last Saturday, a person named Miller called on him where he lodged, and requested that some letters that would be addressed to him might be taken in for him. He gave his consent to do so, but the letters began to pour in so last, and observing that they were addressed to !dews. Darner and Wallingsbrook, and that those names ap peared in the advertisement, he suspected all was not right, and suggested to Pile the propriety of going to the Society of Arts and mentioning the whole of the circumstance. Pile and himself had made up their minds to go to the society on that very morning, but before starting the officers unfortunately called. Pile made a somewhat similar statement, and both pri soners were remanded until Wednesday next, and Mr. Elliott objected to take bail for their appearance.

The bankrupt, a victualler of Hatfield-street, Christ church, came up to pass his last examination, but the as not having bean filed, it was adjourned sine die. Mr. Sturgeon attended on behalf of a creditor who had recovered damages against the bankrupt and his wife In an action of trespass, the trespass being throwing a pe . wter pot at his head, and wounding it thereby. Since the judgment the wife had been taken in execution, and the husband was prot The ected. solicitor for the assignees urged that the taking the wife is execution was a discharge of the debt. The applica- tion had been made to a judge, and he declined to interfere. Mr. Sturgeon contended that there was no diuharge. The action was joint and several, and therefore his client had the right of keeping this party in custody, the judge having so decided upon the occasion of an application being made to disabuse the wife, on the ground of her coronas*. It was clear that the right of proof against the estate was sus tained, and that the creditor could avail himself of hie re medy against Mrs. Marshall, who might be released by another tribunal. His Honour allowed the case to stand over, and the &litho rides might be looked into prior to the next meeting. THE POLICE COURTS. MANSION ROUSE.
