After callieg their etteatios to the iery dreadful character of the charm. he said be was apsite wire at was perfectly unaeorte eery fee bhn to bespeak thair moot serious atteetausi not may to the erialeore that had Is-eu adduced for the pragmatics, tad to the obserrations that he should make to them es behalf of the wretched MAO at the her, who was steadiest vs it were under the very shadow of the soil. fol.! and upon the brink a eternity. l'poo them desolve I the awful respomilaility of deciding whether the IJat of the prisoner should be taken, laud the question at i4soo wa., therefore, one of the most edema. and serious cha teeter. lie then pmceeded to state that it iippeered to him that the evidence went to show that there were two theories tiat would w.count for the death of tie 11. A -eased. one of whi« . , was that the prisoorr had destroyed his wife, and n attempted to kill binoelf : sod the other, that the .2... heal attempted to kill the prisoner. anal then de. adroit-al herself. The lint was the theory :mon which the cliehe was sought to he estaldished against the prisoner, last Lai mediated that upon the evidence that bad been laid Leto° them the other siugratioo was quite as probable, and just a. likely to be true. It was proved that the alt. ceased we. a violent woman. aptl that on this night she was is a very drunken anal excited state, and he asked tbe jury whether it wits at all improbable that a woman in such a caliphs should have Letel iu the way described It was sot necessary that the jury should he satisfied aflirtmitively that this wee the actual manlier in which the affair occurred r it was quite sufficitiat if any reasonable doubt was melted in their icicle, anal if such a doubt existed the primmer was entitled to the bench' of it. The whole transaction was involved iu obscurity, anal he mid that if the prismoor had died and his wife had survived, it appeaiol to him that r there would have been quite so touch evidence to support, • charge of wilful murder against the wife NI there was against the husband. Ile than referred to the Northumberland-street affair, anal to the murderous affray that there took place, and said that the survivor was enabled to "talJish moat clearly that the person who was killed was the Ent aingreemr. Mr. Hilton next referred to the moinal testimony, and commented at considerable length slam the fact that Mr. Painter would not take upon him self to state upon his oath that the mortal injury upon the throst caudal not have been inflicted by the deceased upon herself ; and be said that this being ao, it appeared to him ' that the Jury ought to pause before they incurred the re sponsiliiiity of arriving at a contrary cooclusioo, particularly when the life of a fellow-creature wan , at stake. Mr. Justice Myles then proceeded to sum up the whole , ' case with great cleerneas sod impartiality. He mid that it appeereal to be admitted oa both sides that the question the jury had to decide was, whether this was a ease of suicide or of Hoarder. and they should look at all the circumstances and say which of the two wee the more probable conclusion to le arrived at. He said that there did not appear any doubt that on that night the prisoner had quarrelled with his wife, and hail made use of various threats towards her, and it was clear that his conduct had been ouches to ioduee taw. or three of the witnesses to advise the deceased not to gr. beer him until his passion was abated. They would coLaider the effect of this evidence, and also whether, if the deceased had destroyed her own life, she would have been foetid iu the position io which she was discovered. The eirennotance of her left baud being cut in the inside, as though by grasping some sharp instrument, maim a moat impaTtlini ra , t for their consideiation, and they would say whether it was not more likely that she had received this injury in the endeavour to protect herself from some deadly attack that was made upon her, than that she should in wine way have wounded herself awl then destroyed her life. Ili. lordship concluded by stating that if the evidence timm, as reasonable men, that the prisoner had committed the crime with which h« was charged, the safety of the public required that they should my so by their Ter n...;, anal if they haul any doubt upon the p o int the prisoner eas eutitic.l to the benefit of it, and they ought to acquit him. The jury, before they retired, expressed a wish to ask Inspector Mackenzie whether he observed any Mumd upon the heiii th-rag the prisoner's room when he first went is' 'The Wieser, it will lie remembered, stated that the ilovviel had mat beg throat while he was asleep on the rm.) Mr. Hacker:is was recalled, sod he .toted that there was an Mogul at all on the hearth.mg. The jury retired at a quarter to five o'clock, and in shout half an hour they returned into court, and gave a verdict of /to • ff ! ,. Mr. Hemp, the deputy clerk of arraigns, then put the rust formal question to the prisoner whether be bail any thing to ry why sentence of death should not he passed upon him a...nether to law. The priumer, who had exhilated a good deal of bolder and effroatery during the trial, clasped his hands together sad said, " f never did it, if I did I hope I may lark my nee: down the stairs." He then turned to the place where Mr. Painter, the surgeon, was sitting, and rut, " You are a wicked man, you are; a man's life might not to depend on acs niaa's evidence.

His lordship then {rased the usual formal sentence of death, bed The primmer was removed from the bar. Jan Speller, 19, who was convicted on Wednesday of mrsienghter, was brought up for judgment. H,. Justice Bylee aid that the priviner was nrigisally sharpd with the offence of wilful murder, but the jury had asquired him upon that charge, sad in his opinio n hail very peapeely der so, sad had convicted him of manslaughter only.

(Before Mr. Commissioner Ken.) • Enrol Tab!, Ward, 31, clerk, was indicted for stealing the mum of 7,00 r., tiro monies of Frtdorick Deonaat kna another, Li. masters. Mr. - 1;5&1;17WIMr. Orridge prosecuted ; and Mr. king, Q.C., who had been specially retained, Mr. Metcalfe. and Mr. Bexley, defended. Mr. Gifford hariog opened the leading eirtuiestanwe of the mse, called Mr. James RUM, who said— I am one of what was the Arm of Coster and Co., of 3 and 4, Alderroanbury, and the pet moms wee the chief cashier to the firm, ■wl his duty was to mediae all the loonies of the firm, which he entered in his ei.sh-heok, and then, with Mr. Denuant, oneof the firm. n•rrod the 1 20atirk. awl r o n d o ,up the Account. On the sth of August, from something which came to my knowledge, I went to the pn...ner sod told him that there was some dis honesty upon his part, and that if there was anything' wrmi,r t•mfers, as I was deterniined to find it out. the ledgil cier!i, was with me at the time, and I said. "Lu you &bow whither Ward has been ri•hhire ru r Ti.. prhomi r then left the emintiug-house, and I. LaCk m ilill.Ut ten and threw down a letter to Mr. Leanest. who was also present, and Mr. Den. mutt read it h. the prisoner's premien. The letter now pro. duped is the one. . _ Mi. Ilawkau.4,l.,retta to the letter being !mule evidence, cocitendiug th.,t it could not he need alter the isitimatiou give. tr) the laiteeve to the primmer that he Lad better After w•me discussion the Commissioner ruled that the letter could not be given in evidence. Witness continued—l east to the prisoner, " You can do so if you like ; hut mind. I hold out no promise or induce. mend." The prisoner then said-- Mr. Hawkins objected to the statement of the prisoner b e i ng g i ven upon the same grounds as those which he urged to lbw publication of the letter. Mr. tiiff.ad held that the remarks which the witness afterwards made to the prisoner removed the objection which had been taken with respect to the letter being re ceived in evidence. After some diseinsion the Commissioner decided that what the prisoner stated might Le given in evidence. The witness, in continuation, said the prisoner then said, " I shall come tomorrow morning and point out these things, whether you prosecute or 00i." He camp the next morning and told Lovell to bring certain ledgers, and one containing entries where Mr. Weeks, of liakerotreet, had a loan of row. posted to him, which was fictitious ; he bad never had it. Thin amount was posted in the prisoner's debit csall•bnuk under the clan of the 22nd July. 1 , 461, and it was dm-cribs' as a cheque for 500/. given to Weeks. Cross-examined by Mr. Hawkins. The ledger WAS kept Ly Lovell. He posted from that debit ash-book. The prisoner had a credit cash-book in which he enteral what he re ceived sod mid. We used to lend to such cus tomers as Weeks money for a few days when they were premed. The money so lent was sent by cheque. There was no one whose duty it was to cheek the cashbook with the ledger. No nue used to check the large sums, nor was there any check kept on the nob-book or the ledger. The business would amount to 400,030/. a year, but no check was kept upon those sums beyond their being submitted to one of the partners. That has been the Me for the Inst eight year., during which time the prisoner has been the chief cashier—nn cheek layoutl the balance supplied by the clerks themselves. We used to have balance-sheets half-yearly, and sometimes once a year. I used to draw for my own private and other ex- Mesmish from the prisoner. I have draws 4001., ~or 030 f. ; it might on one occasion hove bees 1,000 f., but not all from the prisoner. It used generally to be in sums of 201. or 30/. The prisoner used to balance his account about every two days with Mr. Delmont. He made a rnemoraoduni. but kept on regular account. Ido not know much about the balances. I donut know much about the counting-house, for that was not io my department. I speak from recollection of what took place between the prisoner and myself when I made the chugs against him. I did not make any memorandum of it. Me-examined—When I had money from the prisoner be took credit for it in ha balances. The ledger clerk (Mr. Lovell) was called, and merely proved that no cheque for 1001. had been paid to Weeks. Mr. Weeks was then called, and the substaoco of his evi dence was to the effect that on the 22nd July he did not have a loan from Messrs. Coster's, as the pris..uer's book set forth. He had had some loans previously, and he had one in August, the amount of which was 7001. Thin was on the 2od or 3nl of August, when he received a cheque for 687/. 19n. 21. That was debited in the prisoner's cash-book. These loans were apart from his badness account. The witness explained that when he wanted monetary assistance be wrote to the firm for it, gave his bills, received the cheques, and the bills were honoured at maturity. Mr. Frederick Dennaot was next examined, soil said be was the partner referred to an having taken the !sebum°s with the prisoner. but he was in exceedingly bed health, and in fact he left nearly everything to the prisoner's numagetnent. In his croesexamination at some length by Mr. Hawkine, the witness said be had not gone through or checked any of the books for eight or ten years. The sccounts were not loosely kept 'soder the circumstances, the utmost confidence being reposed in the prisoner. It was the prisoner's duty to receive all moneys, and he (witness) merely looked to ascer tain that the whole was correct, and that the balances tallied. The prisoner was not required to pay over the balance,but used to give an I OLT for the amount, and debit himself to the firm in his next account. After some further evidence of a similar character had been siren, Mr. Hawkins, Q.C., submitted to his lordship that there was no came to go to the jay, contending that no evidence hail been given of an actual false appropriation, and still less of a Weeny. On the contrary, the prosecution had only proved a fictitious entry to carry on the balance to his next account, and not even an attempt to appropriate the proceeds of that fictitious entry. The learned Commissioner observed that, considering the large sums which had passed through the prisoner's hands he would not stop the case, but leave it to the jury to de cide on the whole facts aidduced before them. Mr. Hawkiu. then addressed the jury on behalf of the prisoner in • speech of great ability and eloquence, con tending that there was no evidence to bring home a charge of larceny, and reminding the jury of the lax manner in which the partners of the firm maintained • surveil lance over their concerns, and thus threw not only a serious responsibility but • great temptation on the prisoner. He contended that no larceny hail been proved. and confidently appealed to the jury for a verdict of acquittal. The learned Commissioner having summed tip the jury Mired, and after an absence of nearly two hours returned into cold with • verdict of Guilty, at the same time re ourrinvtudiug the prisoner to mercy on account of his pre vious good character, the industry he had displayed in the business of the firm, and condemning the lax manner in which the Looks hail Leen inspected.

Etl,aoad William Pmllex was charged on remand with stealing a post letter, addressed by Messrs. Harvey and Hudson, of Thetford, to Messrs. Hanker and Co., of Fenchurchatreet, containing 10s. in bills and notes, and also a large number of other letters. Mr. Peacock, the solicitor to the Post.office, conducted the prosecution, and a clerk from the ottias of 11r. Haynes defended the prisoner. William Thomas Riches-1 am clerk to Messrs. Harvey and Co., of Thetford, bankers. On the 12th September I made up a remittance on the part of my principals for our town agents, Messrs. Hankey and Co. The amount was 2.1:11. 10a. in one bill amid sundry bank notes.

Mr. Peacock—Will you explain bow • letter addressed to tbeni could fall into the prisoner's bands'.' Witnees—lt is very likely that being directed only " London," without any mention of Fenchurch-street, rt might be sorted to the prisoner, who was delivering on the Lombsribstreet walk, that being the great street for bankers. It would be placed with other letters before the prisoner to be subdivided for the letter-carrion of that walk, himself and two others. Mr. Henry—lt ought to be addressed Fenchurch-street. The form described by the Thetford clerk should be altered. Although Messrs. Hawkey are very well known, the Post. office ought to have the advantage of the full address. Witness continued—lf it bad been fully addressed, it would haws been sorted to Huggins, and the prisoner would have had nothing to do with it. The letter having been ported to the prisoner it would be put aside as mis-aorted, and would be resorted to the Feachurch-street walk. Mr. Henry—lt would be necessary to look to the Dime. ton" to see in what street Messrs. Harkey heed!

" Mr. Henry—Still it shows the inconvenience of that mode of directing a letter If it had been fully directed this would not have occurred. The officer Smee was then called, and repeated his former evidence as to his finding thirty-five letters, and the purse containing the two 5/. Dotes, on the prisoner. In the purse was also a passport, made out to Miss Isabella Grey. lie also found in the prisoner's closet at the General Poet-office, the key of which the prisoner had given up to him, a basket containing about fourteen or fifteen hundred letters, mod two coats, the pockets of which were also filled with letters, not addressed to places on his beat. Mr. Hyland, being recalled, de —f received from the last witness Smee the key of a closet in the kitchen of the General Post-office. The prisoner said it was his closet. I opened it and found a great number of letters there. I assisted in counting them, and so did Sines. They were counted in hundreds. There wens either a little over or • little under fourteen hundred. There were also in the cupboard two coats, one official and the other private, iu the pockets of both of which were a great numb er of letters. Miss Caroline Legrew—l live in Ladbrokemlace ' Notting hill.

I did not see it again until it was produced by the constable in court to-day. Mr. Henry mid it would be better not to send a ticket of this description in a letter, as the stamping ought probably break the ticket in pieces. Evidence was given to show that the ticket bad never been received by Mr. Watkins ; that the prisoner was on duty on the Lombarclatreet walk on the day whet the letter ought to have been delivered ; sod that the ticket was found on the prisoner when searchol at the General Post-office, when he mid it was given to him in Lombard-street by a gentle man whose name and address he did not know.

MY Morse, of No. 9, Alfred-place, Newington-causeway, optician, complained that for some time past advertisements had been inrwted in country papers offering to lend sums of money from 10/. to 1,0001. at six per cent, interest, and directing applicanta to address their communications to Mr. Sevin, No. 9, Alfred.place, Newington-causeway. Hundreds of letters had been brought by the postman, which he (Mr. Morse) refused to receive, but by some singular means they got into the bands of the advather. The magistrates have also received • packet of letters from poor people in Birmingham and its vicinity respecting the tram/actions of Mr. W. Pidding and a Frenchman named Rault, who are both iu the Queen's Prison. The former advertises largely in the provincial newspapers, offering " Home employment to earn 2s. 6d. an hour as long as you please to work," on receipt of 30 postage stamps.

At sea he had tied up a man and beaten him most savagely. Mr. Woolrych—What for? The seaman—Because he liked it. lam afraid of violence if I go on board the Schemed again.

Mr. Woolrych granted a summons for the applesauce of the captain on Saturday. GREENWICH. Mr. Edward William Cannon , an auctioneer. an on business at Croydon, was charged by the authorities of the London and Brighton Railway Company with acting in decently towards Jane Humphrey., and also with annoying Franeis Coster, his fellow passengers. Mr. Inspector Richards appeared for the company, and Mr. Parry for the defendant. Custer, a young man residing at Sutton, in Sunny, said he was a passenger by the 10.15 p.m. tr ain from London bridge on Monday, the 9th instant. He was seated in a third-class carriage there being two women in the same compartment and also the defer dant. The defendant com menced talking to one of the women, who seemed inclined to keep biro away. He did not hear her say anything. but afterwards seeing defendant put his hand in an improper manner to the bottom part of her dress, be (witness) asked her if she would change seats with him, and she replied that she should be glad to do so. They changed seats, and on the train arriving at Forest-hill station the women got into another carriage. Francis Shaw, guard of the train, proved that a complaint had been made to him of the defendant's conduct at the Forest-bill station. Mr. Parry said some joking had been going on between the defendant and the young woman during the journey, and the witness Coster had unnecessarily interfered. Mr. Train said the female complainant hail, by some means with which he was not acquainted, kept away from the in quiry but it had been clearly proved to him that defendant bad, by his conduct, occasioned annoyance to another pas. senger (the witness Caster), and for that he should order him to pay the full penalty of 40s. and costa. Jane Humphreys, the complainant in the first case, who had in the meantime arrived, was then examined. She mid she was housemaid in the service of Mr. Rogers, a gentle man melding at Shaftesbury-cottage, Lansdowne-road, Croydon. Sbe had intended to be present on Thursday morning last, but Miss Cannon, the defendant's sister, tailed upon her mistress, and, stating that defendant's wife was very ill, asked her mistress to allow her to accom pany her to defendant's solicitor tome if there was any ne cessity for her to attend that court. She went with Miss Can non, who took her two miles and a half away from the station, by a by.roul, to a roadside inn. Mew Cannon entered the ion, and on coming out said the solicitor and defendant were busy that day, and there would be no necessity to attend the court. She afterwards got back to the railway station at Croydon, and left by the 2.15 p.m. train, but on arriving at New - cross she found she was too late, as the court had closed. Mr. Trail inquired if no other inducement had been held out to her to keep away than being taken to a solicitor? The complainant replied in the negative. Mr. Traill said that that being the case, she could be sworn. _ Mr. Parry then handed in a written apology made by the slefendent to the complainant, who had signed it. Mr. Trail! read the paper in question, in which the corn plaiannt was made to express herself satisfied with the apology offered, and also to declare her intention of not attending to press any complaint. The complainant said, however, that she had signed it at the request of Miss Cannon, who did not read it to her, nor could she read it herself. It was handed to her to sign as oecesury, but no mention was made of it being an apology. Mr. Traill said he should keep the document, and directed the cue to The comp= was accordingly sworn, and gave similar evidence to that already detailed by the witness Coster. Mr. Trill said the complaint, as affecting railway pea. Dangers was one of public importance, and as it bad been preferred at the instance of the railway authorities, be should not dispose of the case, which subjected the defen dant to severe punishment, until they were afforded the opportunity of expressing their desire or not that the case should he sent to the sessions for trial. He should, there fore, adjourn the case for that purpose. and should likewise require defendant to put in bail to the amount of 501., and himself in the same amount, for his future appearance. The required bail was forthcoming. THE CHARGE OP FORGERY AT BIRMINGHAM. At the Birmingham police-court yesterday, be fore Mr. T. C. 8. Kynnendey (stipendiary), and Mawr. James and Cox, John Bradbury, who had been apprehended on Saturday at Torquay on a warrant, " for uttering the forged acceptance of William Price to • bill of exchange," was placed in the dock. Mr. Hawker, who appeared for the prosecution, said the first case he intended to proceed with was one for stealieg a bill of exchange. Mr. C. Brooks, tailor, of Birmingham, deposed that uu the 13th July, 1837, he draw • bill upon Thomas Knowles, of Bir mingham for 301., at six months. After indorsing the bill it was handed over by him to Mr. Bradshaw, who also en dorsed it, and then handed it to Mr. Knowles, by whom it was paid away. The bill was produced and iden. tilled. In Jemmy, 1858, he was sued for the bill by Mr. Minster, of Coventry, for the amount, and in consequence he and Mr. Bradshaw went to Mr. Minster's office, and paid the amount and costa in the pre sence of Mr. Eaves, at whose suit they were sued. He believed the money was paid in January, 1858. The bill was then handed over to him, and had been iu his ponies don ever since. Mr. Bradshaw gave corroborative et idence. Mr. Knowles said he received the bill from the last witness, end sent it to Mrs. Chattaway, an upholsterer in Birming ham, to whom he was indebted. Mrs. L Billing said she was married to her present husband, Mr. Martin Billing, in March last. In 18.7 she carried on business as an upho'.- sterer. Her name then wee Chattaway. She had carried on the business for twenty years. She had known the pri soner for about seven years. He was a customer and a tenant of hers. She employed him to collect her bad debts. She received the bill now produced in July, 18:17. She showed it to prisoner, and complained of its being • six months' bill. It then had the signatures of Knowles, Brookes, and Bnidsbaw upon the back. The sig nature, John Brielbuq, was not then upon the note. She placed it in a drawer in • secretaire in her shop in presence of the prisoner. About • fortnight after she missed the note. In October the prisoner left the town, and she then suspected him of takiug the note. She had not seen him since. The sig nature John Bradbury on the back of the note now produced was in the prisoner's handwriting. She never gave him authority to sign bills for her. The witness was subjected to a rigid erees-examination by Mr. Ellen, barrister, who appeared for the prisoner, but her testimony was nut shaken. Detective policeman Tandy proved appre hending the prisoner on Saturday on a wamint for uttering the forged acceptance of William Price. The warrant bad been in his possession sinus 18.57, but not executed before . The prisoner was further remanded till Monty in order to procure the attendance of Mr. Eaves.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HOUSE. Wilkie Allan, who was summoned before the Lord Mayer as Moods; bat to answer • complaint made against W by FraneisJames Gregory, charging bun with having ewasaltted ivy, attended yestenlay, in accordance with his , to hear his lordship's decision upon the ass. Mr. Beverly, the assistant solicitor to her Majesty's Cus toms, was io attendance on the part of the defendant; and Mr. William Boodle appeared cm behalf of the complained. The facts of the tam were given fully oa the last examination, from which it Appeared that the complainant and defendant were officers of the Custom., and the dn. tentlant, in an inquiry before the commissioners of her Majesty's Customs, swore that the complainant Greg o ry had been concerned in various peculation's with him, and said that parties were present who took a 1.4 with them. The complainant denied this, and called the various parties in question, who denied being present on the date alleged by the defendant Allan. Hie Lcodship mkt he had very carefully gone through the whole of the depceitioos, and had come to the conclusion that the evidence was out such as would justify his corset. tiog the defendant for trial. If Mr. Boodle would hke to hear his reasons he would give them. Mr. Beverly said that he thought it would be more satis. factory for Mr. Boodle, and for the public in general. The Load Motor then went as to say that the case against the defendant was supported by da witnesses, the first of whom was the prosecuter Gregory, who was the person 'a mused by Allan of having committed the peculations ; . and it we. quite natural for a person who is accused of a crime to deny it, and that was nearly all that his evidence amounted to. He certainly went a little further, and said that he did not see Allan and Hamilton ; but it was proved that they were all three together on that day. As legarded the evil deuce of Hamilton, Le had prevaricated a little. He first said he would swear he was not with Allan on the 18th April, letiO, but on being cross-examined he sail be would not swear Le was nut with Allan, but he would swear he did not see him, whereas it was proved in the evidence that they were all three together. Besides that, bethought there was not much reliance to be placed upon his °videos*, which was flatly contradicted by the witness McCurukey who swore that tiamiltou would swear anything to get Gregory out of the 'IWO'. The witness Bathes was a respectable man and a disinterested witness, and he proved that Hamilton was employed by him in the West lodia Dock in the evening of the 18th April, 1803, and not in the Victoria Dock ; but on being cross.exandued he said, on referring to his book, that duriog the day Hamilton had been employed in the Victoria Dock. and Le sent there for him, and he ought to have left the dock at four o'clock, but he could not My if he Lad done so. His lordship said he had looked at the map, moil found that it was about two miles from the West India Dock to Bermondsey, where be 6.4 to take the barge ; and that with two men using the tun he thought they might come that distance in an hour and a half, with the tide in their Payout. The tide was sot at its full until half-past twelve on that ui;l4, therefore Hamilton might have left the West India Dock at eleven o'clock, lied the witness Bathe had no check upon his actions from eight o'clock, when he gave him his orders, un til that time, and there war time for him to be at the Victoria Dock, defog what Allan charged him with. The boy Gerrard was sot implicated in anyway, hut his evtdence was somewhat different to what he gave before the COMIlli.- ciosers, when he was asked if he had left his charge at all on the night in question, and he said he had not, whereas on being examioed before him be said be went into an empty barge for about five minutes, and on being premed in cross•eraniination he admitted that he had gone ashore while inside the dock to get something to eat, and it was quite clear his evidence was not to be relied upon. As re garded nwanbridge, he was charged by Allan with Laving received :la. ed., which he denied. Taking into considers- tiou all these circumstances it seemed to him that the evident* was not such as woul d justify him in committing the defendant for trial. He should, therefore, dismiss the summons. ...... Mr. Boodle said that under those circumstances be should apply to his lordship to bind the complainant over to pros. cute Allan upon an indictment for perjury, at the neat sere sions of the Central Criminal Court. Mr. Goodman told his lordship that he snui empowered to do so by arr.-cot art. viz, 2f2aniltl Vier.. cap. 27. which was ponied in 18M), the tirst section of which said that--" No bill of indictment for perjury, ice., shall be geeented to or found by say grand jury, unless the proompator, or THAMES. Charles Ederarei Purdry, late chief clerk and cashier to Messrs. Owen and Merton, manufacturing chemist. awl palm candle makers, of Millwall, Poplar, was charged with feloniously embezzling various' sums of money lie had received for and on account of his employers. The prisoner's defalcation had been ascertained to be upwards of 100/. ; but an investigation was in progress, and it is feared that the homes sustained by the pioaecutore would amount to a much larger aunt. Great coati lence had been reposed in him. His duties were to receive moneys from the firm and disburse them daily, for the current ex- penses of the establishment, and also to receive moneys and remittances from cuatomers, enter the amounts, and poet them in a cash-book, and pay over the some to his employer.' bankers. A fortnight ago the prisoner' absconded, and an investigation was commenced, which proved him to be a defaulter, and that he had not paid into the banking-house various sums he had received. On Wednesday evening the prisoner was apprehended by police- constable Sutherland, at No. 31, North-bank. St. John's. wood. Mr. Charles Owen was present at the time, and the prieoler said, "I expected to lee you, Mr. Owen ; thi s i s • very serious matter." The prisoner was about making some admissions, when be was cautioned by Sutherland that what be said would be repeated to the magistnite. At the station house the prisoner admitted that be had received moneys not accounted for, and rreeqquested his employer to select the came of Mr. Cass, of Sarborough, who bad remitted 51. to three sod Marton re the 3rd inst.
