THE EXPRESS, THURSDAY EVENING, JULY 12, 1849. THE LATE PRESIDENT POLE• The follewing has to on Maud from the United States legation : Official intelligence his been received at this legation that James Knox Polk, BO lately President of the United States, expired on the 15th day of Jane lest. Unlike his prede armee, he has sailed life before the Bening of old age, but not before completing an be eole career. The judgment of his countrymen ever marked , him out for high services. Raised sweeseively to the first plums in the stats—shainnim ache most important congressional coin minas, head of the Howes of Representatives of the wtole Animism people, supreme magistrate in his own common wealth, President of the Federal Republic—he ever ap. proved his linen for the highest trusts, excelling not more in station than in laboriousness, prudence, temperance, and forti tude. He defined, established, and extended the boundaries of his country. He planted the laws of the American Union on the shores of the Pacific. His influence and his counsels tended to organism the national treasury on the principles of the constitution, i and to apply the rule of freedom to naviga tion, trade, and i n dustry Mat beloved where best knows, he lived happily, sad died in the midst of his country's un @sampled prosperity which his own m easures had contri buted to establish. I invite the consuls and vim-consuls of the United States, and all others of my fellow-citizens now in the United Kingdom, to shore the sorrow cf his family and his country. His memory as a public man lives in honour, and will endure • the youth of our country will be formed to virtue by emul ating the purity of his private life. °Joann Bsiecaorr.

The last meeting of the shareholders in this line of railway, to restive the firm report of the committee of inverti gation, wu adjourned until today ; and it was expected opt° Saturday lest that the committee would be able to present a further report on that day. That, however, was found im possible, and the meeting was therefore advertised to be held, merely pro forms, and to be nein adjourned far a week. On the present occasion Bosnia Darns, Esq., deputy chairman of the company, presided, and the other directors, the committee of investiiation, and several of the sompany's officials were present. There were not smear thartheiden there—perhaps a score. The SECRETARY (Ms. Close) having reed the adver tisement convening the meetther. The LORD MAYOR of YORK, as chairman of the committee of investigation, explained why the present meet ing must be adjourned. 're. committee very deeply regretted that circumstances had arisen which compelled them to ask at the hands of the shartholden a further ad immanent, to enable them to submit their second report. They had fully intended, end would have been happy dam souk' have submitted this report to them that day; bat there had been a lees of time, in consequence of circum stances which the committee could not control. The com mittee were anxious that the shareholders should have some time between the issuing of the report and the holding of the meeting, in order that they might make them selves conversant with it; and, having found that if they availed themselves of all the means at their W, they could not have got the report out r i e al Monday, and that therefore the shareholders would have very little time to read it over coolly sad deliberately, they thought it would be desirable , and the least evil of the two to propose a further adjournment to Thunday . the 19th but. The committee would endeavour te issue copses of the report not later than Friday evening, and they hoped that the shareholders would then have time to look over the evidence which would be placed in their hands, and that by the 19th instant, they would be able to form their own ?pinions upon that evidence. His lordship moved accord ingly that the mating be adjourned to Thursday next, the 19th inst. Mr. LOVE seconded the motion, which was carried. A SHAREHOLDER 'Weld if the voting sale had been assimilated to the Clauses Consolidation Act ? The CHAIRMAN.—There is no alteration in the mode of votiug. SHAREHOLDER.—It is so reported in the proceedings of the House of Commons, and I beg to direct the attention of the I;vitaMb; the matter. — No other question being mooted, The LORD MAYOR proposed a vote of thanks to the chairman, and the meeting stood adjourned until Thar eday IRELAND. DUBLIN, JULY e. A good deal of apprehension is felt about the con duct that will be observed in Ulster to-morrow. It is feared that there will be some collisions, and that the old party watchwords will be raised. Lord Messareene has addressed a strange letter to the Bishop of Down, commenting on the Bishop's late ad dress, dress, inculcating Christian feeling and avoidance of insulting boast. Lord Massareene tells the Bishop of Down it would have been better to have addressed the clergy exclusively, as they seem to be the great promoters of Orangeiem. lord Masesreene has thrown open his park for the gathering of the Antrim omogemen, at the express request of a beneficed clergyman. The noble lord's letter is a very curious ' production. Since the announcement of the Queen's visit, nearly all the lodgings have been taken at the Cove of Cork, and demands fur increased accommodation hare been made by persons of high rank and re spectability. At Multingar Assizes there has been a capital con viction of two prisoners for the murder of James Curly. The convicted prisoners were sentenced to death by Chief Justice Doherty, and before they were removed from the court, they uttered the most fearful imprecations on both judge and jury. Shortly after one of the jury observed that he was dogged by a desperate ruffian, and in pointing him out to the police, they immediately recognised him as one of the gang concerned in the murder. He was immediately committed to prison by order of Chief Justice Do herty. Mr. Whiteside, Q.C., is about to give lectures in Belfast, the pro ceeds to be applied to extending the library of the Working Clams Association. It is very rarely now that an Irish barrister seeks to exert himself in any sphere beyond the limits of his pro fession. There re perhaps more learning, but also le s public spirit, than was formerly common at the bar. " All an Irish barrister minds now-a-days is his brief-beg, " drily observed one of the " fathers" of the bar not long since. Thom was a third gentleman entered, but he did not eons to the put.

A lovely day, promising to be a hot one, but tem. pored by a light breeze from the coat, was certainly a auspicious an harbinger of a splendid regatta an the greatest lover of aquatic sports could desire. The sailing course hid out for the boats was in the form of a pyramid, with the top cut off, the base lying along the shore, and it comprised and two-thirds miles. The first mat ch was a time race for the grand prize of 60 sovereigns, by yachts belonging to clubs. Half a minute per ton was allowed for difference of tonnage. The following yachts entered and took their stations : Name. Tone. Club. Owner. Cynthia Secret Rein Juvenile Mosquito Hilda Precisely at 12 the gun fired, and they were off in gallant style, the Cynthia leading, followed by Mosquito , Secret , and Hilda. The trifling advantage in the start did not lessen the previous good opinion formed of the Mosquito, which, as well as the Secret, has already borne away prizes from Yarmouth, and was therefore the favourite. The wind, having now freshened, blew gradually from the south, end assisted the Cynthia with her large topsail in keeping the lead, and she slightly increased the distance between her and the Mosquito ; the latter, having been compelled to tack, in order to fetch the S.E. flag-boat, lost all chance of heading her antagonist, who came in first, followed by the Mosquito, Hilda, Foam, Secret, and Juvenile. In the second round, no alteration took place in the position of the boats except in that of the Secret, which took the place of the'Hilda as the third boat. The wind having veered to the SA E., the boats experienced the greatest possible difficulty in heading the strong tide which they had to encounter in making their south course in the lag round ; and some time previous to breasting the jetty, 'the Juvenile gave up the match, an example which was followed within 6 minutes by all the other boats, with the exception of the Cynthia, which, after making two essays to round the B.E. flag boat, succeeded by the most scientific manoeuvring, and the most slillul and seaman-like management, in fetching it, coming in at 3h. 43m. 605., and se bore away the prize , from all her competitors, fully es tablishing her claim to rank as a first-rate yacht. The follow ing is the order in which the boats came in the first and second rounds : - tya.

CAPTIIIII or Fiala's —Dr. Adds= applied to the court to grant bounty to lier Majesty's ship Ringdove, for the taking of some pirate vessels, called " Prahus," off the island of Borneo ; one was captured, three were burnt, and two escaped. The Queen's Advocate opposed the application, and quo ted, in support of that view, the 6.. h Geo. 4, chap. 49, which /met forth that " they should be captured or destroyed," but, as two of the vessels had escaped, they could not come within the meaning of that act of parliament, Dr. Phillintore, on the same side, did not dispute the merit of the parties before the court ; but it was bound to give its judgment as the law was laid down. The Court said this was a question upon the construction of the statute. It appeared that the sum paid for every man killed or taken would be 201., and for every man who escaped 01. ; but the act further says, that the vessel must be "taken, burnt, sunk, or destroyed." Whatever may be the feeling of liberality on the part of the court in placing its construction on the act of parliament, it cannot go fur ther than the law will allow it, as in this case ; it can, therefore, only give bounty for those vessels which were taken. It must, therefore, reject the claim for bounty in this cam. CONSISTORY COURT.—YESTERDAY. BUOIII Da. LIMISINGTON. HALL O. HALL.—DivOOOs.

In such a con dition the men becomes susceptible to morel and religious insprsmi ; even real penitence may be felt. It Is quite possible east the repentance may be abort, and weak against itature temptations ; but still it is of unspeakable import ance. lbw shall we hope to realise the end, it we despise the beginning ? Is the flame to be kindled, if we, by oar perverse legislation, systematically quench the sacking fiat? Instead of turning back to count the cost of the first step, shall we so: rather go on with ohs good work ? The more mode objections to the system, as poetised in the model prison at Penteaville, are the comforts enjoyed, under it, by the primates, comparedwith the pr.vatione of the ,honest labourer while, somewhat is oe ntradictian to this all( gation, its restraints are at the same time denounced, for being so caw* as to break down Ike body and mind, sad lead to disease and Insanity. it is the bel• necessary to go at any length bete these objectams at present, since this part of the ass boo been effectually disposed of in a recant Number (163) of the " Quarterly Review." But we mast say a word or two der cumin m We are shown the picture of the Docutshire peassat, ground down by tameless labour, with insufficient food, suety clothing, little fuel, a miserable cottage, and a half starred family : con•rated with this is the Pentonville pri soner—in • comfortable all, with plenty of toed, abundasco of clothieg, artificial warmth and raitilatioa, stediaal at tendance. may work, and a seheolmaster to teach him. The unanswerable reply to all such objections is the statement of the fact—and that it is a fact is proved by astual experiment —that all these aids are absolutely required to enable the prisoner to bear his punishment. The point to be ascer tained was this man being under cottinement in air of a certain temperature, and having to perform a certain amount of work, what is the smallest quantity of food which will support him in health ? To decide this question a series of experiments was undertaken, and five different dietaries were in succession adopted. Under the first diitary, which was the lowest, no la's than 80 per cent. of the prisoners offered a serious Is. of weight and strength. The second dietary wee thin tried, by which the prisoners received an increased quentity of Woad: seder its operation the debility sad !mikado c 'Mimed; bat the loss of weight was not se great as before, and the per tentage of the prisms?' elided by it was reduced to 43. Under the third dietary, tbe meat was increased, and the bread diminished back to the quantity allowed I. the first dietary: the result of this was to increase the strength ; but the men again fell of in weight, and continued to do so, until the Ines amounted ki 121lles. per man on 86 per cent. of the whole number. The fourth dietary, giving an increased &Rowse*, of potatoes, was thee adopted, and it reduced the per tentage from 86 to 22. And the fifth dietary—the ono now in use—by the addition of • small quantity of bread, brought the average loss of weight per man to 1 ;lb. on 16 per cent. Further ex periments led to the confirmation of this scale as the smallest average quantity of food on which the prisoners could be maintained in health; although they points I out some curi ous modifications which might be introduced with Wreath to the age and stature of individuals It is important, also, to remark , th at, on an ate of 423 prisoners, 37 required extra diet, even under the fullest allowance of food to which we have alluded. Now, if it be admitted that a prisoner is sentenced to im prisonment, and not to the hosa of health, and that these are the results of actual experiments made under the direction of such eminent men as Broils and Fergana, we do not see what room is left for argument, or for mewling that the pri soner is teo well fed. The amount of his physical comforts has been carefully adjusted to his capacity of endurance : if diminished, he is found to droop, and the powers of life to fade away. So far from the food and accommodation of a prisoner being justly an object of save to the free peasant, the punishment of impr:sonment Is shown in this respect to be carried to its maximum ; and only to stop short of de stroying health. The diepsrity which prevails between the dietaries of different prisons, and which may be estimated by . the difference in their cost, proms nothing except local intsmanarment. "In ono county gaol " (says Mr. Field) " It amounts to within a fraction of 81. ; in another it doss not exceed it." The principal ailment. which require watching in Penton vale, as well as in all other prisons, are tubercular scrofula and romans' tioa, and mental derangement. It is difficult to draw any comparison which can be relied on between the condition of Pentoaville prisoners with regard to mental and bodily health, and that of other prisenen, or of criminals at liberty. So far as the statistical MUM go, the results are much in favour of Nutmeats; tank should be remembered that the persons confined there, though orksineb, were se lected criminals. end a large proportioe of them came from the country. It is remarkable, also, what apparently tri vial precautions reduced the ratio Glibness. The fine dust reasisism in the cells at night was supposed to have in. erearal the cases of consumption. After proper precautions had been taken to remove it, the ratio per 1,000 of deaths frees coassmotion fell from 1117 to 4 MI The deaths in Pen tenville in 1847 were only 14 la 1,000. la the metropolitan district, la the some year, the deaths Oaks between the ages of 20 sad 10 years were 1318 fa 1,000.

This inquiry can oily be answered approximately. The value of the pro,nerty takes by 500 Benteeville prisoners, as estimated at their trials, was above 10,0001., or an average of 201. per man : gad this sum only represents the &snuff( n to property by one felony—the [eat, but not therefore the worst, of • series of crimes. Tee number of convictions for felonies in the metropolitan district in 1848 was 3,137, and the value of the lost was 44,8661. ; in addition to all those robberies, P w rG ar do sot come under the notice of the pollee. Bow many thesel ar be, it is quite impossible to say but in forgery, a ly dangerous career of crime, end which is systems Ballyca prosecuted by the bank, the proportion of convictions to offences was only lin 103.

Reformation is cheep at any price. The last argument we shall notice, is the one which as sumes that the reformation of criminals is not to be expected, and that therefore all expenditure for that purpose is only se much money thrown away. Without dwelling on any ninon" for persevering in this attempt drawn from considerations of duty, we would treat the question rather as • matter of fact to be ascertained. Se beg as gaols in England afford only the means of obi tying primers, and that indifferently, we admit at Sass that reformation is, generally speaking. hopeless. For the momr of some well known individuals has been due to the singular combinatiss in them of two or three meat rare and heavealy qualities; whereas in legislative schemes we must adept our arriagencenti to the ordinary machinery at our command. The statistics of our gaols show that not above 6 per cont. of the prisoners have bean led to crime by the mason of poverty alone. Its origin is to be found in the habit of 'pending rather than in the difficulty of acquiring. The presence of temptation Le more powerful to attract to crime, than the recollection or anticipation of interim; to dater. Notwithstanding which, our practice has tootle OW tepee offenders to be confined for short periods in gaol, from whence they issue more co rrupted than on their entrances, without a shilling to buy food, without a chases of employ ment, with their characters gone, with no one to turn to but their former companions in guilt, with no other alternative than that of death by starvation or a life of robbery. And then, bemuse they choose life, we call their penitence hype crisy and their reformation an impossibility ! The evidence of Mr. T. Wright before the committee of the Rouse of Lords on criminal law is very striking. lie had been in the habit for nine years of visiting prisoners in Salford Home of Correction at Manchester and obtain employment for them on discharge' and he states, fruit his own experience, that in his "hum ble opinion 14 out of 20 would never return to prison" if some one took them by the hand, and spoke kindly to them, and found them situations and supply of food for some ihne. In the last two years, provided a man comes out of prison to-morrow moraing, if I should happen to be at home, I take cars that that men wants n oth ing.

Their conduct on board ship may be ascertained from the reports of the surgeon superintendents of the ships in whisk they have been sent out. It will be recollected that hereto fore the auccistion-of convicts on board ships had been lava riably demoralising in the highest degree, and their conduit outrageous. Now what her been the case with Pentonville prisoners during the voyage? Up to the end of 184 . 7, eight ships hail been sent out with prisoners from Pentonville, and in every one of these eight instances the conduct of the con victs is stated to have been excellent, uniformly well-behaved and orderly. Their conduct when landed at Australia is, however, the great tominbine. At first they were net to Van Diemon's Loa, which at that time was as bad a pima I Is swat boss bees found. The failure of the probation =r es at he dinar ; and from the falling off in the for lakeer, there was no opening for fresh arrival' Onsequently, some of them, almost unavoidably, relapsed into vicious habits ::the remainder ware sent on to Port Phillip. From the concluding observations in the report upon those left in Van Diemen's Land, it appears that, " of ' the inferior clines of Pentonville prisoners only 7i gm cent. misconducted themselves in such a manner as to expose them to any penalty whatever : from which it may be temonably inferred that the offences of the exiles have been less." (Report of the Commissioners of Pentonville, 1848, p. 31.) On the 20tn April, 1848, the exact number of men and boys landed at Port Phillip was as follows: From Pentonville „ Millbank Parkhurst 367 1,368 Of course in so large • number there will have been many temporarily, and some permanently, ill-conducted : but the statement concerning them in the dhaplain's Report, taken from the Report of the Pentonville Commissioners just quoted, is very eueoorsgin;. Mr. Charles Cooper, who went slut in the Joseph flornes with 248 men, to Port Phillip, towards the close et 1847, wrote to the consuissioaers of Pentonville to the same effect two months after his arrival. We regret that we have not space for the details. The Deputy.Aasietant-Ccreeraimary-Oeneral„ writing to Earl Grey from Port Phillip on the 10th May, 1848, urges the propriety of piecing, for a time, the new ar rivals under more menden in a country where temptations of every kind surround them; but adds: " After watching narrowly the conduct cf the sass already landed, now amounting to up wards of 1,600, 1 am confident that exiles may be rendered a very safe and very useful people " The authorities* Western Australia have received from time to time, prison. ere from Pentenville and boys from Parkhurst; and have very recently asked for en increased number. We have treated this gustiest of separate confinement at some length, because, in our judgment, it is the basis of the whole system. Mr. Hill, the Re co rder of Birmingham ; Mr. Clay, the Chaplain at Preston ; and almost all pansies who have any practical knowledge on the subject, are as confident as Kr. Field, that it is an indispensable condition to all improvement. The following points respecting it to us tabs established. We have the power Of ill = upon felons the severest known sort of imprisonment, for a period of twelve months, without detriment to mind or body. Along with this, we can subject them to such morel inflamices, that, at the end of the twelve months, we are able to put a great majority of them in intercourse with each other without mutual iojury ; and that, even in the trying situation of a convict ship (a much severer test than being thrown together in regular hard labour on shore) they will conduct th emselves with decency, order, and propriety. Finally, under these improved conditions, a very large pro portion of them are willingly . received in our admits; and, when there, lead an honest, industrious, and useful life. sup porting themselves, and contributing to the prosperity of their adopted country. iTo be continued.l court. Moreover, in looking over the whole of the proceed ings in this ease, there were many circumstances which re quired deliberate consideration. independent of those to which it had already referred. The parties would not suffer by the postponement of the judgment of the court. On the part of Mr. Chesnut, he not paying alimony, in consequence of being a pauper, could not suffer, neither from the tempo rary separation of his wife. With regard to Mrs. Chesnut, she was now under the protection of the court, and it would extend that protection over her. For these reasons it would postpone its judgment. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. HOME CIRCUIT.-HERTFORD, JULY 11. The proceedings of this circuit commenced en Tuesday by the opening of the commission for the county of Hurts, at this pbsa, by the Lord Chief Baron ; and business was this morning proeeeded with in both courts, the Chief Baron presiding in the civil side, and Mr. Baron Alderson in the Crown Court. Twenty-two Gauen are entered at nisi prius, but the greater portion of these are undefended cases, and there is only one special jury trial. The business on the crown side is also very light, nearly the whole of the charges toting of the ordinary description. No cue of interest was disposed of during the day. OXFORD CIRCUIT.—ABINGDON, JULY 11. $770111C MR. BARON ROL7I. CRIMINAL ASSAULT. James Ware was charged with a criminal assaalt on Han nah Prior, at Wokingham, on the 16th of March last. On the 15th of March last, the prosecutriz, a prepossess ing girl 18 years of age, was walking on the turnpike road with a companion, a girl about 13 years old, when the pri soner met them and insisted on kissing the prosecutric. On the following day Prior and the same young girl were en gaged pulling heath in a plantation near the turnpike-road, when the prisoner came up to them and again kissed Prior. The other girl went away a short distance, when the prisoner threw Prior on the ground, and perpetrated the offence with which he was charged. The younger girl witnessed the transaction, and on their return home both mentioned the circumstance to their friends, in conse quence of which the prisoner was taken into custody. The evidence of a surgeon went to show that the capital offence had not been committed. The prisoner declined to say any this, in his defence, and the jury acquitted him of the capital offenoe, and found him guilty of an assault. His lordship sentenced the prisoner to be imprisoned and kept to hard labour for two years. MIDLAND CIRCUIT.—OAKLIAII, JULY 11. A MAIDEN AESIZE.—GRAND JURIES. This morning Mr. Justice Coleridge arrived here, and proceeded to the Castle, where the commission was opened m due form. There was neither a prisoner ner a cause at nisi prime ; nor was there a member of the bar to be men in the town. Justice Coleridge addressed the grand jury at some length. There happi fled to be only 13 jurymen present, and he therefore took occasion of the circumstance to give sspression to his opinion with reference to the question of abolishing grand juries. He said it was probable that a knowledge that there would be no business to be transacted had kept many away, and therefore he was ready to excuse it; be hoped it was not occasioned by the grawing feeling abroad that the institution of grand juries was un necessary. "I am sorry to say," observed his lord ship, " that in some parts of the country an opinion is gaining ground, that grand juries are unnecessary. That is a very erroneous opinion, for I take the institution of grand juries to be one of great value, and which ought to be kept up. I dare say you have heard that a bill is now before par liament, or is likely to be introduced by a high Pgal autho rity, for the purpose of abolishing grand juries as regards the central criminal court of the metropolis. I own that I very much regret that there should be such an intention. I may speak with greater freedom on the. subject now, as it has not yet become the law of the land, end I cannot help Bayles that I look upon it as • very unconstitutional measure ; for, if the bill should par into law, it will depend on the decision of one individual—an individual appointed by the crown, psid by the crown, and removable by the crown—as to whether any person shall be prosecuted or no'. There will be an end to all inquiry by the ancient institution of the grand jury, and it will depend on a police magistrate whether any prisoners shall or shall not be put on trial. Of course, I am far from supposing that, under the present go vernment, in the present state of public feeling, and with the present men as police magistrates, the power proposed to be entrusted to them will be abused; yet it might be abused by placing in the hands of the petty jury the sole decision as to grave offences. and making them the only arbiters of life and death, or the guilt or innocence of the accused." A person in the body of the court here rose and said, " My lord, it will be a revocation of Magna Charts." Justice Colerigge threatened that if he again interrupted him he should be put out of court. His lordship having concluded his remarks, The grand jury retired, and shortly after returned, stating that there was no presentment. Hie lordship, accordingly, discharged them, upon which the high sheriff presented him with a pair of white gloves. The business of the assize thus avainated. NORTHERN CIRCUIT.—YORK, Juts 11. Mr. Justice Pattreon and Mr. Justice Wightmen, the judges of Assize for this circuit, opened the commission this day. The calendar is above the average as to numbers, but on many previous assizes the cases Dave been of a more agars vsted description. The business before the Civil Court pro mises to be above an average, 98 venires being already re turned; of these it is expected that 16 will be special jury cues. POLICB.—YESTERDAY. MANSION-HOUSE. ALLEGED FRAUD BY A STOCK-BROKER.—G. Berington, the stock-broker, who was some days ago brought up in the custody of Daniel Forrester, upon the charge of having de frauded a purchaser of stock, to the amount of between 2001. and 3001., by means of a forged receipt, purporting to be the receipt of an official of the Bank of England for the amount of stock in the Three-and•a-Quarter per Cent. An nuities, &c., was put to the her for a second examination. Mr. Robinson, the gentleman who had brought the charge in the first instance, did not appear upon being called. The Lord Mayor asked whether there were any other ite misations against the prisoner ? A professional gentleman said he attended upon the part of a poor widow who had employed the prisoner to purchase stock upon the dividends on which and the fruit of her future industry she had calculated to live in comfort during the rest of her days. By the fraudulent conduct of the prisoner however her hopes of independence had been entirely broken down. Elizabeth Dimas, the female alluded to, was examined, and it appeared that she had paid the prisoner a sum of 2631. 12s. 6d. to purchase stock, but as she had given no written instructions to the prisoner the case did not come within the jurisdiction et the court. A gentleman rose in another part of the justice-room, and said he had a charge against the prisoner exactly similar, he apprehended, to that of the poor widow. The Lord Mayor ►avieg aszertained the particulars of the second transaction, and observed a fatal similarity to the former, intimated that his jurisdiction was again rendered null and void by the neglect upon the part of the purchaser of the necessary forms in accordance with the act. A third complainant thought there was a point is his case likely to affect the responsibility of the prisoner. He bad employed the prisoner to purchase 1001. stock for him, and he had subsequently written to the prisoner a note, ex pressing his wish te purchase more stock, and requesting to be informed at what time he should transmit a cheque for the amount. The prisoner, instead of writing, called at his house for the cheque, received it, and misappropriated the proceeds. The Lord Mayor again referred to the act. He could not look upon the written document which the complainaat re ferred to as the sort of written instruction meant by the statute, and he therefore could not commit upon the strength of it. It was intimated by Mr. Wontner he was glad to see that the friends of the prisoner were making arrangements for the liquidation of the sums of money of which the pri soner had so grossly defrauded his customers. It was satis factory to know that such was the case, but in dismissing the prisoner it was necessary to state that the legal escape from punishment in not the slightest degree diminished the moral responsibility of the accused. Mr. Robinson, the complainant, on the lint transaction, was again called, and not making his appearance, either per sonally or by his attorney, the pnsoner was discharged.
