Pear Sir. The earusst and friendly letter which I lave just received from the committee of the Chelsea Working .lea's Parliamentary Electoral Association gives me very great pleasure. That the elite of the working classes should think so kindly of me. and should snub pi , much importance to my political services. I feel to tea tubjeet of lust pride, sines it has been given to me sot in spite of. but as I believediartly in consequence of, sa my having made no 'crifice my honest convictions to obtain it. It to because I have never concealed from the working ewes, any more than from any other clam, any difle ewes of opinion with them, and my determination net to be the organ in parliament et any opinions not my own, that they have had confidence in me when I refused to agree with them, and have never failed to give me a patient. a respectful, and even a symputhieing hearing on the points on which we differed. If the electors of the workiug classes con tinue to guide themselves in the choice and treatment et their representatives by the political principles and feel ing, which have governed their conduct towards me. the progress of d e mocracy will soon cease to give uneasiness to any reasonab'e minds. There is much which is gratifying and something which is disappointing in the results of the general election. It has decided thoroughly and irrevocably the question of rel*ous equality in Ireland in the only way . which (mild be tolerated in the present age—the impar tial disendownients of all sects, and has to that extent lightened the burthen of the reparation due to the people of that ill-treated country for centuries of misrule. It has also raised to the plate of highest power the one English 'sinister of past or ppresent times who time best deserved and has of tallied in hlirgest measure the confidence of the labouring classes; on the other hand, those classes, though to their votes the Blend party principally owes its victory, are far from having had their just influence in the selec tion of the members who represent the party in the new Mouse of Commons. No working man has been a success ful candidate; even so distinguished a member of the working chivies as Mr. Odger, the ignorant attacks on whom have only served to bring forth from an si les additional tributes to his worth, has found, even in your metropolitan borough, that the zeal of his supporters amid Lot compete with the greater wealth and superior organisation of other candidates ; and when this was mentained he honourably consented to withdraw. Those new candidates who thought that working men possessed the special confidence of the working classes, or who com• lined high education and culture with advanced opinions, have in general been equally unsuccessful. It was not to be expected that there could be much or modesties and eouce rt among voteis, who when the ele ctieu took place had only just been pat on the electoral ra But it these things happen a seyind time the new eh a tors will have chicly themselves to blame. l'ublic oliuicn will in time demand the only complete remedy— the adoption of pi rsonal representation, by which the electors would be enabled to group themselves as they pleased. and any electozs WllO i hose to combine could be feline.. no el. in exact proportion to their numbers. be fen of the it own peas nal choice. But as this great :row ovetnent in representative postman-at is not yet ripe for adoption, what should t o dine sow is that the wo: king classes should aseert their light to an eyial vol e with the liberals of the higher red widuk clams in the cheer of liberal c &wilds:es. Al Len a place returns two nombers, one of them should be a candidate specially acceptable to the working classes; when there is bat one, Le should be selected iu (once rt by Loth seetions of iberale. Thus mach oohing classes are fairly entitled to. and thus mech. if they na.,r, they will obtain. for liberal candidates can in most places no more Le elected without their co-copes ration tiara elected by them alone without the co-me ration of cthers. There is one thing more which demands the imosedinte and most ',tenuous efforts of the working classes, and of at who wish the yes lest of changes in our representative institutions to be more than pond bah The real cause of the failure of working class candidates and of so many other advanced liberals in the late ci nteets is the inordinate expense of elertious. In a great majority of these cases, if money had had no influence, or it the expenditure of it had been equal ou both sides, the popular candidate would in all probabdity have succeeded. If the working classes even wish to be more genuinely represented than they are. they should make a united and energetic appeal to parliament to clear away this obstacle to their representation. They should de eland that the nece nary expenses of elections be made a public charge. and that t le useless and noxious expenses to made illegal and punishable. Some of their be 4 tricot:o vainly exerted themselves to extort measures for this purpos e from the last parliament: but terries and luke-warm Lbeials were too strong for them. Mr. Gladstone. however, made known both by speech sad vote his approbation of the attempt, and we may feel (cadent that if properly supported by the people, be will be no reluctant hailer in the accomplishment of this, one of the most urgent as well as essential of remaining par hammitary reforms. But when there is so great a mass of interested or timid resistance to be encountexecl a reform i, nut properly sup ported unless it thoroughly urged. Owe more thanking your committee for their gratifying expressions of feeling towards me—l am, dear sir, very deccrely yours, J. S. It. C. if udge, Esq. ATTEMPTED MERDER.—A determined attempt to murder a sweetheart was committed at Sheffield on Saturday night. A young woman, named Mary Ann Ber iberi', about le years of age, was engaged to a file m maene tenter, named }fen - hal l, who until recently was employed at tl.e works of Moms. Caramel] and Co. At AO request she met him on Saturday night in Fox-street, which is on the outskirts of the town, and is not lighted with gas. Amore lonely spot it would be impossible to con sr ire, and it is just such • one as would be likely to be closes for the commission of env foul deed. Henshalre !muse is at one end of the street, and it seems that after leaving his bowie be went with the young woman some distance along the street in the direction of the other end. While talking together he placed owe of his arms round her neck, the girl thinking he was about to give her a kbs, but, instead of that. with the other hazel he drew a razor across her throat. The fellow then ran away and soon disappeared in the darkness. The poor girl was horror-strieken, and, finding a quantity of blood streaming dose her breast, she ran back to Henahall'a house, and told his sitter that her sweetheart had cut her throat. Blood was then streaming r pro likely from the wound , which the poor was endeavouring to prevent by holding her mu to her Beek. She was then, taken to • surgeon, Mr. Smith, Chapel-street, who discovered that the wound wan nearly six inches in length, and that the windpipe had been partially severed. Fortunately none of the large arteries were cut. The wound was sewn up, an dZ young woman was then removed to her fath e r' s h ouse , but there it commenced Lkading alma, and she had to be taken to the infirmary. Besides the wound being a very rerious rate, the young woman lost • large quantity of blood, and for a time her life was considered to be m dapper. She is now said to be progressing favourably. No cease can be assigned for the attempt to murder the young women. Henske'', who up to the present time has sontrived to keep out of the hands of the poliee, is said to he a man of violent temper, and to have twice attempted to destroy himself. SHOCKING OLY.CItitEXCE ON TOOL WELSH COAST. —A shocking accident is reported from Aberdovey, a small watering-pleee on the west coast of Wales. It appear.. that tween 3 - aad 4 o'clock on Thursday afternoon two young gentlemen —a Mr. Knowles, the son of a solicitor at Staf ford, and Mr. Jackson, the eon of a shiphroker earryingon lbs.s:ro •sin London—went out in a stuall boat for the pur pose of en p.ing the ferry to Ynplae to shoot sealarks. The tide war going out at the time, and a hurricane of wind and rain nve.hortly afterthey wont out. When about half way ecrose the river they were met by one of the river pilots, who advised them to turn heck, but they refused, and that was the last that was rein of them. On Friday afternoon the h ea t wee week d ashore at Cricaeth, which is about forty mike from Aberdovey, and the general surmise is that the unfortunate gentlemen were carried out to sea and perished in the gale which visited the coast on Thurs day and Friday. Men have been engaged dragging the river in search of the bodies, but up to Saturday night no tracer had been found. 111'111,1.E ACX.• —Yesterdny a hurdle race for IGO/. 111 side, which excited much intenet among the officers of the Goan's, took place iu the Windsor Home-park Leine' n the lion.

Davies, second mate; Mr. Peter Blair, quartermaster; and Mr. John Reilly, ablebodied seaman—arrived in Glasgow from Londonderry per the steamer Garland. Their general arpriusnee was of the most satisfactory character, and evidently showed that every care had been taken of them once their landing on the shores of Donegal, and every means applied to bring them round from their exhausted state. They walked lame and with, the aid of a stick. Their hands and feet are still somewhat swollen and present the appearance of slight sorest They, however, speak of being in first-rate condition, and having good appetites, and are of opinion that in • few dap they will be in a great degree convalescent. Mr. Peter Blair, the quartermaster, has furnished a statement of the sufferings of the crew, in which he says: --•• We were the third boat launched from the Hibernia. We were very well provisioned at the time we left. There were in all in our boat at, among whom were the second mate, Mr. Davies, John Reilly, and myself. There were Me, as far as I can recollect, Hugh M•Lean. Daniel li'Laren, fireman; Hugh M`Lenvie, A. 8.; William Meek, A.B. • James Malcolm, A.B. • Hugh oberbon, first pintri stemud ; Jame Watsoii, second pantry steward; John M•Rinlay third cook; John Ross, coolie mate; William M'Ketiie, third engineer; Robert M'Arthur, fireman; Walter M•Farlans, trimmer; Eliza Johnstone, Belfast; Catherine Myers, Londonderry John Magee, ('atherine Magee, Samuel Brewster, Fran-M. Rodgers (suprosed to be a schoolmaster), and six or seven women, with three children, one au infant. After we pushed away ham the Hibernia we fell behind in co sequence of our being able to pull only two oars--the boat being so full of people there was no room to pull more. The boat was a lifeboat, and was about 22 feet long, with a beam of about seven feet. She leaked badly, and we had to keep at least two persons baling her to keep her afloat. After being some tune oo the water we raw the mate's boat making sail, and we were going to make sail too, but were immediately afterwards attracted by cries of help from the mates boat. He was standing up in the boat with his hands up, imploring us to oome to his assistance. We rounded as best we could. to see if we could render any help to him and his boat, but found we could not, as it was as much as we could do to keep our own beat afloat. While we were rounding we saw his boat capsize, and all were thrown into the sea. lam of opinion that at that time the third mate's boat, which is reverted as still amiseing, went to the assistanee of the mate's boat, and that some of those unfortunate persons who were struggling in the sea got hold of it, and were lifted in ; and, therefere, my firm belief is that that boat also was swamped by the heavy load she had on board. I cannot, however, speak positively of this, as we were not in a positron to szcertain exactly. We soon parted company with the other boat*, and pat oat an improvised floating anchor, consisting of two oars and a tarpaulin lashed to gether, and lay-to all that night. The next morning we made a sail. and proceeded to steer E.S.E., that being the direction of the Irish coast. We nailed canvas around the bulwarks of our boat 111 order to keep out the sea, and we laid a tarpaulin over the bow to protect the women and chi!di en as much as possible. For this they somd very grateful, but did not want any food during the whole of that day, their anxiety being too great. On Thursday. through the day, a passenger who had become somewhat deranged jumped noisboard. He had one boot on and the oilier off, and he told ns he was going into his to look after the missing toot. That night we hail a strews breeze. and I am owe we went at the rate of nine knots an hour in the direction of the land. This inspired us with her . cud everyone became more buoyant ; _bat Me next morning was a calm. and all that day we bad to work our two oats. and otey went at the rate of about two knots an hour. 'this again depressed several of our male a sengers. That memos (Friday) Francis Rodgers. mil posed to be a schoolmaster. who had frequently pre viously exhibited signs of raving macloem. jumped clean cut of the brat and was drowned. His disposition ha l la in for rem hours of a mot iinarrelsome nature, and be begged of us to mend the hole. in his trousers. saying that he could not go borne with them in that state. No tongue can tell what our pnetion was as day by day rolled on. We shifted for ourselves as we were able. and all did their best to assist each other. I was occasionally called upon hi spin a good yarn ti the ratty. and I did my utmost. One old Irishwoman was in defatigable in her efforts to . keep rip the spirits of all on board. She would ire t the women into a line of conversa tion. and by her drolleries w0..11 cause them to hooch heartily. We told her that she ought to wear the • breeks if ever she got ashore• suet she replied that she was deter mined to do so. We bad on board two bottles of gin, and one of wine• and we gave the women and children the gin to drink, and the bottle of wine was stolen by some one after we left the Hibernia. After the water be came so scarce some of the men took to drinking the cil t water, and notwithstanding all our endeavours to di-aunt e them from such a practice. they continued to do so. Th is soon told on them, and they became raving mad. On Wednesday a passenger named Samuel lire wster, an old roan, died from exhaustion, after having become raving mad. In fact, by this time, de liriousness we." apparent in a great many of the pas sengers and crew. and it was as much as we could pos sibly do to exercise control over them, in some ca-es force having to be resorted to. Walter kfasfarlane. a fireman, waa one of those who was continually drinking the salt water, and he became so very obstreperous that we had to secure him to a portion of the boat, in which pone tion be died. On Friday morning we calculated that we had sailed upwards of 450 miles. It came on to blow again that day. In the earlier part of the. day the poor little infant suc cumbed to the deprivations it had suffered, and our hearts were heavy indeed. As night came upon us that day a woman died. We did not, however, become cognisant of the fact till some time afterwards. A little before 11 o'clock that night a high wind arose, and we had our sail up at the time. The sea was very heavy, and all our passenger that remained were completely exhausted. Several of them lay down to sleeps little, and I was dozing at the time. Several of the others afterwards appeared to he sleeping on their hands, when a wave struck us, and caused a number of persons to fall to the lee side of the boat. Then followed the most unhappy of all our ciesor emcee, for at a moment's notice the boat was capsized and all of us were thrown into the sea. We struggled in the water for a short true, and the cries of some of our num ber were most pitiful. I saw John Reilly get on to the keel of the boat as she lay bottom up, and I immediately endeavoured to do the same. Reilly saw me, and assisted ire to get up, but one of the stewards bad hold of the leg of my trousers. I said to Reilly, •Is that you, John Ile replied in the affirmative, and at the sane time I sib wk myself free of the person who had hold of my trous2ra, arid was assisted by Reilly to Ireton to the keel of the boat. In a moment or two afterwards Davies rose to the surface of the water. and shouted for kelp. Some ono likewise had hold of his leg, and it was with difficulty that he was able to float. Reilly caught him, and also pulled him to the keel of the boat. Then I saw WM. Mack, • seaman, swim ming towards the boat, and for a long time he kept above water. I would have assisted him if it had been in my power, as would also peeler and Reilly but we could not. Maclean, a fireman, had hold of Mack. At that time we beard another fireman swearing most fearfully. Ile appeared to be raving mad. We three had remain x 1 ou the keel of the boat for about 'twenty minutes, when we heard a voice cry from below it, 'Hallo!' We answered, but could not by any possible means render assistance to the peram, as the waver were breaking over us at the time, and it took us all our time to hold on. We had been on the keel for about an hour,when we were again washed off by an immense wave. We were not, however, washed far away, and I managed to get on the keel again. Reilly then more up arm and arm with Davies, and I assisted them both up to the aide of me. No one but ourselves can conjecture lam sure, the awful position in which we were then liaced ; but, notwithstanding that our feelings wore o the most agonising nature, our hopes were imuyani, :or we felt confident that every sea would right the lifeboat As the tea came on we let ourselves down to the nib of the, boat to assist it to right, but it refused to do so. About four kin the morning, after having been in that position for above four hours, the best righted itself. Our feelings while we were on the bottom of the boat were awful, and Davies said that about half an hour would do for him ; but Reilly told him ti cheer up, for where there was life there was hope. However, we all felt that we could not exist long if the boat did not right itself. I had hold of a portion of the rigging, fuel was first to get into the boat again. Davies and Reilly hung on to the sides of the boat. and I netted them in. Our mast and sail were still left to us, but our boat was full of water. We saw floating by the side two pieces of wood, which we succeeded 111 getting, and with these we baled a quantity of the water out Still wo wore taking in water, and our progress was very slow. Notwithstand ing we had bad no food from the time the boat upset we did not feel very hungry, but were dreadfully thirsty. Our anxiety was gnat, when it crime on to rain very l.eisvily during the night. The thought struck me then to tie my handkerchief to the mast, so that it might get soaked with the rain. It did, and Locaudonally meted it, and any throat was relieved • little. Davies and Billy spread their oil-skin coats out to catch Use rain, and caught a quantity of wider, which they drank. The mate also wiped the sides and seats of the boat with his hand kerchief, rout licked it. This was the AM water we had tasted since the eapnstng of the boat on the Friday even ing previously, and during the interval we haksuffered ' such agonies from thirst as reduced us to the extremity of drinking our own urine.

About 3 o'clock on Sunday morning a lament able accident took place at the Three Bridges station on the main line of the London and Brighton Railway. From official information we learn that a down goods train bad then arrived at Three Bridges from Loudon, and bad been shunted into • siding. It contained • boa truck which bad been taken on from the North Western line, and which was destined for Newhaven, most, it not all, its contents being in trimmer for Prance, by the Newhaven route. While the train wee standing in theTbree Bridges siding, the guard of • Tunbridge Wells train, named Frank French, had Lin attention directed to • lialage from the box truck, and, undeterred by the ockur of r aniline, or naphtha, or some other dangerous oil (tte precise nature is not yet known) intend the truck with his lighted lamp iu order to see wlemie the k stage came. There is no demist tba truck rant east d some highly hifismreable oil in cask, and either I y ignitiin Win actual accidental contact, or by an el lm'se sal our, the cask took fire. There was scarcely any lei cat, hut the truck wra instantly wramed in llamas, said *Lich leor French was enveloped. Ile managed to t r act r f the (nick, and a fellow-guard. named John Burris, went to Lis mei tame. Harris also was caught by the blaring fluid and received severe injuries. The toilets and of& isle on duty with the trains, and at the jutiMicis. lent, of course, innue.:iate assistance, and both the tuff. rare were at once sent on to the Brighton Hospital. French was deeply li.rist all over his bi ry, arid, though sensible and abh. to hold con venetian dining the day, died the same night at Lalf•put 10. Barris is very much burnt about the legs and arms, and his condition is mod precarious. Both are young men. French leaves a widow with Osier child,. n. Barris has but recently been married. lie tater s did not spread much. The truck which con tained the cask was completely destroyed, with the whole of its contents, and the two adjacent truck; and what the y lore, were alto damaged a good deal. The railway set vents are said to have exerted themselves to the ut most, es well in rescuing, so far as they could. their comrades, in getting the uninjured part of the train out of harm's way. NVe need hardly add that the sail fatality did not in any wav affect the traffic. 1143 inquest will be opened to -day. The ca‘k is supposed to have con tained refined naphtha. Mona.' NIGHT. The fatality acquiree considerable public importance holm the fact that the closed truck was booked through holm Liverpool to !hippo, from the North Western Rail way, whereon the previous fatalities from petroleum had taken place, including, of course, the Abergele catas trophe. Under the interchange of traffic system it is doubtful whether the Brighton officials really knew what they were carrying, end it may be a (portion for inquiry at the inquest to-morrow whether the truck woe not fully loaded with petroleum. A man who happened to be near at hand is reported to have said that he heard six dirtinet exploconc. The flames are described aa lighting up the locality fur miles around. The intensity of the heat was such that the hand lamps held by the deg axed and Harris were almost completely fumed. The rails have been displaced and twisted, and the keys of the main down line, POMO score yard+ off, have been touched and scorched by the liquid Ore. The truck containing the iu flammable material and ita contents have been burnt to what looks like a cinder heap ; but the number and initials of the railway are yet distinguishable on one of the beams. 'lliere is but scant hope of Harris recovering. It is be who has the family of children. ACHICULTITAL PROSTFATS.— ne week opened with a wet and windy day, blowing a terrific gale st night fn m the S.W., and causing much destruction both at sea and on shore. flu slondity morning the gale bad moderated ; the day held up dry, but the night proved wet. Tuesday morning was fair, and it continued d r y u p to 3 p.m., when rain set in. Wind S.W. ; thermometer 414 degs.. barometer 29.60 inches. Our advice. were as under- from the West Riding of Yorkshire: "Sitioe my last we have Lad a great amount of rain, and our low land is overflowed to some extent ; this will affect in some measure the grain being thrashed out at present, and may tend to keep the markets dull and depred." From the East Ridi ng our &deices were as follow : "Weather is mild an, a good deal of rain has fallen, which was much needed. The growing wheat plant looks remarkably well, and, owing to the failure of the turnip crop, a great portion of land that should have grown this esculent has been sown with wheat, so that a more than orduiary portion of soil is again planted with the ' staple article.' " From North umberland it was remarked: "The weather was fine yesterday, but with that exception it has been damp and foggy during the past week ; while to-day (Tues day) is very wet ; wind south-east." Wednesday was a drier day, and in the very late districts wheat sowing was proceeded with, the moisture recent/ experienced being most acceptable and serriao for field work of moat descriptions. Thursday was a milder day. Wind south-wwf, thermometer 60 a barometer 29.90 'Bybee. Our 'Arleta from Warwi= were as under : " The weather is on the whole very sea sonable for farm cperat r oas• the absence of frost is also favourable, considering the scarcity of fodder and the dearness of feeding corn.

The attinition of agriculturists is now direct eel to the state of the marketafor wheat, and they are making smaller deliveries, in the expectation of its improving in value, ro much being used for bullock feeding. Again the deliveries of barley are falling off, from the fanners being unable to keep up the deliveries, and there will be a scarcity at are earlier period than last year ; maltstera are more en the qui vim, and supe rior samples will soon command the extreme prices previously obtained.

Mr. ' by Seymour, Q.C., and Mr. White we conniel for p andiff ; Mr. Pollock, Q.C., and Yr. Wraps Williams for thedefendant. It appeared that the cargo upon which the insurance bad been effected was on board the vessel Esmaulda, and was an insurance for the voyage from Tahiti to England. Prior to the ship putting into the port of Tahiti she had sailed from maim, and cm her way she had suffered greatly from bad weather. S h e there took in the cargo in questims, and prooseded on her voyage, when she again met with very bad weather, and was eventually lost. The plaintiffs now claimed the amount of the policy on • total has. . . — The lefence was that the vessel was unseaworthy when she left Tahiti, and that there was a concealment of the feet from the underwriter of her having to put into that port in consequence of her pumps being choked, and if the defendant bad known that fact be would not have underwritten the cargo.

VOVITIVR V. WACICTNNON. The plaintiff io this case, Sir Woliam Porter, waa the bead of a firm 'of solicitors carrying on burinere at Nor wich, and be sued one hill of exchange for 3,0001. which bore as endorree the name of the defendant, who war for me' ly M.P. for Rye. The main itofenee war that the name of Mr. Meckintion had been forged. but there war alto a plea that the indorrement had been obtained from him hr fraud. _ Q.C.. Sir George flonprian. awl Mr. T. Salter appeared for the plaintiff; and Mr. Ser joint lial'antine, Mr. J. Brown. QC., and Mr. Archibald fur the defendant. It appeared that in ISGG the Mani Railway Company seal eho the Seabrook Barbour Company were hmtuht forward, and that the defendanen estate in Kent was like'y to be eonsiderably lettered if them *theme' wore caned one Ile wan thee fore meets intercede, in the pm:um of the rimjianies; he signed a guaruideo for 2,Et01. in tropeet of one of them: and the plvietitr+ cam was that the defendant signed the bit in aneation to advance the intelests of the other. The defendant's signature, it was said, wise obtained by Mr. Callow, the "fiercely to the railway company ; but it was rather a singular fact that this person ha ) sinr been convicted of haling forged the eignatures of directors of the company to cheques. The plaiiitifro conavel, in maths/lion, stated that there was net the slightest intention to impute anything dishonourable to the defendrt in re sisting this claim, but be was a gentleman new nearly $0 jeer* of age, and it was believed that his memory was intim, and that lie bud altogether forgotten that h 2 Led signed the bill. Edward Bannister Callow, who was brought up in custody mid wore the convict dress. said—l was furuierly secretary to the Elham Midway Company, which corn piny was farmed for the purpose of making a line from lid the to Canterbury. The act was obtained in thee. The defendant wan a supporter of the scheme, and his son was one of the directors. I applied to the defendant to give pecuniary assistance to carry out the scheme. I applied to hem to give a guarantee to the National Provincial I tank. I shelled conve rearm with him about the Seabrook liarle star Company. Be wan very anxious to get the bill, for the success of the railway would so much depend upon it. In November, leeq. I wan in want of furls for the Se . a• brook scheme ; nod the bill in question is dated the nth November. (The bill was handed to the witness.) I know the signature of Arthur C. Cooper, the drawer of the bill. Ile wan a clerk in the Elhank Valley office, and he is now in China I believe. I accepted the hilt and Cooper endorsed it. On the 11th November I drove to the defendant's house, known as Aerise-park, and I had with me my father-in-law and my little boy. I went in, leaving the others outside. I saw Mr. Maekinnon, junior, first, and afterward+ I raw the defendant. asked him if he would give nie a guarantee for the Harbour Company. the mar as he had done for the rail way company. I remiuded him that the guarantee fur the railway company bad gone on all right ; and then I asked him to sign this paper (the bill). 1 merely asked him to sign his name there (the back of the bill). 1 asked him for it as a guarantee. 1 did not toll him it was a bill. Having got his signature I came away. auil returned to my house at Sand ate. thi the 13th 1 handed the bill to Parker, who said he would get it ithseouutel. I was cm wieted this year of forging some cheques of the filial:tuns the Elliam Railway Company. Crors-examined-1 believe that Mr. Mackinnon signed the hill under the belief that it was a guarantee. I forged the cheques, and I pleaded guilty to the charge. The aggregate amount of the cheques was enitg. Thu Lord Chief Justice called the attention of the counsel to the evidence that Mr. Mackinnon had signed the bill believing it to be a guarantee. Mr. Ferjeant liallaatine raid that even if that were a perfect answer to the action Mr. Mackinnon could not adept it as !Ca sole defence. Mr. Thomas A. Pcoley said that the bill came into his hands in November, ISO. He teak it to Merle. (Myra, the defendant's bankers. He pointed out the defendant's name, and asked Mr. Currie if it was a good bill as re garded that name, and was told that it was. On a subse quent occasion he asked Mann. Olyn to discount the bill, but they declined to do so. For the defence Mr. Mackinnon wan called, and he stated that he never signed the bill; but he added that the signature was exactly like his. In crass-examination it appeared that the witness had forgotten that he was examined in 1666 at length before a committee of the House of Commons in reference to the Elbam Valley Company, and that he had also forgotten that be had signed several documents in reference to the compsny. The further hearing of the case wan aslimiroed.

Mr. James Mire, metal and iron agent, 139, Leadenhalbstrest, appeared before Mr. Alderman Finnic, at the Justice-room of the Mansion-hone, yesterday after noon, on a summons charging him with - having appro priated to his own nee and benefit the proceeds of two cheques for 3001 each, entrusted to him as an agent for a special purpose, by Mr. Miles Bellied shipand insurance broker, No. 2, tit. Michael's-bowie, C,rnhill. Mr. Metcalfe, barrister, appeared for the prosecution, and Mr. Woollett, barris t er, - for the defence. The prosecutor stated that he carried on busineas under the style of Filby and Co. In July last he met Mr. Iliffe and a Mr. Watt, at the Jamaica Caem-house, where he was in the habit of taking luncheon. He got into con vereation with Vim, and they told him they were in the iron trade, and said it would be a fine opportunity for investing a little money. They recommended him to biy 1,01.0 tons of pig iron, and said it could be held over till September, when a very handsome profit might be male. When he asked whom he was to pay, they remarked that a cheque for a small amount as a •• margin " would .le. A •. margin " meant a sum to protect them at a matter of form. Eventually it was agreed that he •hould give them a cheque for 300/. Next morning Mr. Watt came, and wither.. gave him the the lee produi •d, dated 17th July, 1368, for :Ma, payable at the Loudon and County Bank to Mr. Alexander Watt er hearer. It now bore the endorsement •' Pay to Mr. James Hare or order, Alexander Watt." and then "Jant•• Hine" nudereeath. That cheque had been return- Ito him as paid. A few dap' after that he received a e iera .• nide for 1,000 tons of iron, and at,,., a letter from Mr. Walt. concluding with the wool-, •• The warrant , are i• the National Bank of S,';•glarail." Ppon the faith letter he believed the warrant were at the National 11 and lie made no inquiries about them at the rim.. In Septemle r lie bad a further trail-actor'.

Wen 'el there mon consented to buy another 1,1811) tone, aukl r ••rre the comb:let note on the 2nd September. On the 11th of the same month he gave a second else ere for 3601. to Mr. Watt, which was wade payable and cadoreed in the same manner as the tir-t. fteparted with th it the l ie upon th, faith that the warrants were hell fa- hue, he would not have paid it had he not also believed that the previous warrant. were at the National Bank of Scotland. Ile understood Mr. Watt wa. a clerk to 31r. Hide. 11.• hid never received any warrants or any iroa. He had eudeavoured to find the warrant,. and had be •n mixuccossful. In the early part of N.ivember he applied to Mr. Mire mescmally, and said he wished to know where the warrants were, and the prospects of the markets. Mr. I lift° replied that he had been dl, and that be really did not know how his affairs stood, but that he had just come from his accountant, and it would be all right. Witness paid be had nothing to do with his accountant, that he had given him two cheques for 3001. each, and held his contracts. Mr. Iliffe said be could not my anything more about it, and that he (witness) must go to his acceuntant. In conaequence of deferidiene• manner witness determined to go to his solicitor. Since then he had seen Mr. Pile frequently and had asked him for the warrants, but hail been unable to get them, or any information whatever. Ile had also asked him again and again to return his money, but hail been unable to get it. Mr. Alexander Watt Wll4 the next witzie-s. 11,. ‘aid ho was an agent in the metal trade, at No. tt, t iracechurch-street. He wasalwayiele-cribed as Mr. Iliffe'scoadjuter, but really was his managing clerk. In all these matters he acted on behalf of Mr. nifty, to whom he gave the cheques. He got the numbers of the warrants from Mr. Thorburn's letters, and inferred from those letters that the warrants were at the National Bank of Scotland. Personally. he had not had a fraction of the 611)1. He had not seen the warrants specified in the contracts. Ile gave the second contract to Mr. Filby on the day before receiving the second cheque. Ile had endeavoured to have either the money or the warrants placed to Mr. Filby's credit. In cro-s-examination, he said he was not a metal agent on his own account ; he was paid a sum of money equal to a portion of the profits and eomnibeion. He had done the mo-t a Mr. 'line'. corre-spondenot There were traneactiens with Thorburn in July. On the 22nd June there was a contract to buy from him 1,000 tons of iron for Mr. Thomas Early Smith. Subsequently the iron was transferred to Mr. Filly's account about the 22nd July ; and on the following day be sent the particulars of the warrants to Mr. Filby. Ile intended these to represent the iron originally bought for Mr. Smith. It was bought for Mr. Smith when prim were higher, and there was a Ines upon it ; but they got rid I,t the lira by transferring the non to another client, there being a prospect of the market rising again. Ihi the 2nd September they were advised that LOW tons of pigfrron had been bought by Mr. Thorbutu; and as soon as they received instructions that Mr. Filby would tak a second 1 000 tone, they were placed to his account. he 'contracts produced represeuted transactions between Thorburn and the defendant to the amount a about 70,000/. On the 21st July 2,5•41. were re mitted to Thorburn to " lift" the 1,000 tons of iron pur chased by Mr. Frilly, and on the Bth July 21111. was re mitted to " lift " the warrants for the 1,000 tows due on the 9th. Re-examined—The money tent on the Bth Xeptember, at on the tint occasion, was to the credit of Mr. Falby's warrants. Mr. 11 °elicit submitted that, on the evidence of this witness, thefts* war et an cud, he haring shown that 2,000 tons of iron really were purchased. If Mr. Thor burn had appropriated this money it could not affect Mr. Mr. Metcalfe said his client had lost COX., and bail not got anything for it. Mr. Woollett—That is frequently the rw , o, unfor tunabdy. (Laughter.) Alter some discussion, Alderman Muni' said ho thought it better in the interest of both (motivate, grant • remand, and he would swept the defendant's own recognisaucos for his rcappearamw. MARKETS.
