W.Taylnr, exassised-1 am • farmer earl midtster, at Cudtwohn, in Kest. 1 saw the Primrose am the lath February lam, about nine is'eleck ; he intrudiseed himself to me, me in& " I stadersteed you have some malt to sell ;" he said he came from Meson. Killett nod Davy. I asked him to take breakfast with me, mad afterwards 1 proceeded to slew him the malt ; he said, " You don't know me, hat lens doing hat- Dimes for Messes. flatehell sod Rowell, brewers, ie Winslow. street, Oxford street," and also said, " I want 60 quarters, sod if my employers approve of them wires they come in I'd make it 600 ;" adding, I have been a asalister, sod know • little about it, sod yours are just such malts as we want SO snake our stock beer." I asked 645. • quarter for the melt he objected that It was too much, as he wanted it for ready money, and his employers asked so credit of any mast. I took of • shilling a quarter, and it was finally agreed that 635. should he the price of 60 quarters, to be delivered in scores; and, as the Prisoner was anxious to haws the /rat delivery as early as he could, as the time was advanced Ise making their stork beer, I agreed to seed them ori the Thew day following to Messrs. Satchell and Rowell. The Prisoner. said, you need not trouble yourself to come up to Imarfan. Wpm rend a bill sad receipt by the waggoner it M the mane thisg as if you come yourself; I said I should come myself as I was going no far Greenwich that morning. The Pri soner then went Into the cuuutiog.house with me, sad gas* me the address of Satchell and Rowell, Winslow-street, as the parties to whom I was to seed the malt. Ou the 'Thurs. day manting I seat 20 quarters of malt by my owe waggon, anJ desired the waggoner not to he there before nine o'clock in the morning, as I should he there myself at that time; accordingly I went to Satchel! and Rowell's, but found sari. ther malt nor waggon, and Mr. Rowell diielairnerl all know ledge of the transaction, and did not pay me fur the malt ; I then commenced a h after the Prisoner but without seeress, till the officer took the Prisoner. Cross examined by Mr. BRODERICK.—I foetid the malt at Mr. Hubert's at Pa ddimetios, he Yorkshire Situp,, bre w house. I have been Offered payment for the malt piece the Prisoner has been in custody. It was offered by a man who came to my house from the Prisoner. Nu meutioa was made of price before Satchel! and Rowell** name, were mentioned. Jolts Oliver, waggoner to Mr. Taylor, stated that be re membered ou the 20th February his toaster gave him twenty quarters of malt to take to Messrs Satcbell's ; as he was coming by Charing-cross he met the Prisoner, who said they had just taken another brewhouse, and 1 must go along with him. I bad seen the Prisoner at my master's house before; be took the written direction from me, and we went to the Yorkshire Sting°. I stopped about twenty rods off; there were so many brewers' dress there we avoid not get into the yard. The Prisoner helped to unload, and Ille malt was mixed with some other malt that was there. After it was unloaded he gave me some beer and bread and cheese, and hales-crown. He said he would send my master to me, but he sent ao man, and in consequence of what he told me I went and waited at Westminster-bridge till my master's sister came to me there, and then I went back to Padding. ton, but I did not see the Prisoner there. F. W. Taylor called again.-1 have demanded paymeet for the malt of Mr. Holmes, but 1 have brought no action. Mr. Holmes examined—l keep the Yorkshire Stingo brew. house; I was pretreat when part of the malt was delivered by Oliver. The Prisoner also was ;wettest. 1 had bought the malt that morning of oar George Hoods, who was also preempt. I gave 54.. • quarter fur it. I have no connexion whatever with Satchell and Rowell's house, sod never em. ployed the Prisoner to buy for me. Coss-examined by Mr. BRODHRICE..—Undef all the cir cumstance", I consider that I gave a fair price for the malt.

I went to West minster-bridge snd waited a long time, but &ever saw the Prisoner, ur received the other shilling. Richard Satchel! and T. Rowell, brewers, of Winslow. street, stated, that they knew nothing of the Prisoner, and had given him so orders to bey malt for them. Mr. Sternums, on the part of the Prisoner, objected that the indictment could out be sustained, as this was at the most, from the evideuce given, a fraud (for which, indeed, the Prisoner had been committed). It was the common care of obtaisieg goods under like pretences. A second ob jection was, that these goods had never been in the posses. lion of the Prisoner; be therefore could not be indicted fur a larceny, and on this last objection he particularly rested. Mr. ADOLPHUS, in reply. conk-sided, that the possession of the malt was taken the moment the horses' beads were turned to Mariam-cruse by the Prisoner's intervention. The RWCORDEI, who tried the case, overruled both the objections. The Prisoner in his defence said, that he bought the malt on his own account, with the honest intention of paying fur it. The Jnry expressing *brawlers satisfied, the evidence was not summed up.

EXTRAORDINARY CIRCUMSTANCE. About six weeks ago, a clerk the house of Doctrine and Co. of America-square, quitted the country, basin eme milled a forgery upo• the banking-house of Sir J. Eadaiie to the amount of 5801. Mr. Dorville applied to the City Ma gialtates upon the subject, sod Samuel Fogg, the marshal man, was selected as a proper peeves to follow the delis. quent and bring him to the Maeda of justice. Fogg having procured • warrant, proceeded to Rolland sad loaded at • small tows sear Rotterdam, where he fo►tunately met the ob. ject of his pursuit, who was e• the point of sadists foe Ame rica. The clerk instantly surrendered himself, saying to Fogg, " 1 know what you come about; do not expos me; I shad gladly go with yen; indeed I hays been miserable since 1 committed the offence, and 1 ens rejeieed al the oettneity of going ■nd theowleg myself at the feet et Mr. Neville ; 1 should have done an before, but I was ashamed, I had spent so much money." But although the clerk had ex pressed in the 'pommel terms kis wish to return, the Captain, who is an American, atrougly opposed his de termination to leave the ship, and accused Fogg of barium arrested him ha deist/we of the authority of the country. They were both takes is consequence by dm police to Dordrecht, where, notwitbstaadiug the profess 'mimes of the clerk, who denied that any arrest had taken place, Fogg was thrown into a subterraneees desires. For the first week he was allowed nothing but bread and water; but upon writing to the Chief Magistrate, and re questing to be permitted to purchase something to keep the life in him, lie obtained leave to eat meat at his own ex. pep". Before he had hers long in confinement, t►e gaoler, accompanied by others, entered his cell, and, bay rug stripped off his coat and waistcoat, took away all the money with which lie was charged, and of which he had be come possessed upon meeting with the clerk. This money amounted to no less a sum than 380/. The clerk had voles. tartly given it to Fogg, having previously complained of the great weight and trouble of it, and said that it was what remained of the sum he hod so dishonestly become master of. Fur upwards of three weeks the reambalman remained in roollnerneet, notwithstanding the fact that he had written to the Ambassador at Brussels, and other'', whose interference he supposed might have been efficacious in procuring his en largement. The dungeon in which he was impriso•ed was of the most loathsome kind,aed white he was is it he never saw the face of a human being, except that of his gaoler. One of the Magistrates, however, treated him with humanity, and frequently rent for him sender pretence of examisiag him fur the purpose of giving him an upportueity of breathing the fresh air. The clerk was all this time at li berty, but he never made an attempt to leave Dordrecht null be was advised by Fogg to go to London, throw him self epos the mercy of his master, stale what had occurred, and cause some interference to be made to prevent the con tinuance of the harsh measures al Dordrecht. The clerk was punctual to those engagements, but soon after his de parture Fogg was liberated, having been declared honour. ably acquitted of the charges against bite in open Court. There was some demur about returning to him the money which had been taken from him, but be insisted opus getting every farthing, and having obtained it, set sail with all pus. sible expedition. One of the irm (Sir Benjamin Hemet) yesterday applied in the Magistrate at Guildhall to order that the money gives by the clerk to Fogg should be deliver ed to the firm. This was eventually dune.
