On Monday came on before the Court the t r i a l or 'b o o mu, late innkeeper, iu Ballantrae, ac cused of needing from a cart belonging to J. end D. Smith. carrier'', a box, cositaittiog bank notes amounting to 1,682/. on the night of the 7th, or morning of the Bth of February, 1812. It will be remembered that this teufortunate man. shortly after 'receiving his indictment, made a desperate attempt to commit suicide, by cutting his throat, on whiclviccount his trial was postponed till Monday. The Primmer being still nimble to speik from the wound in his throat, wrote down his plea, which was read by his Counsel—Not Ghihy. The following witnesses were called:— John M , Kie, Agent at Steamier for the Paisley Rink in the year 1812, was in the practice-of send ing weekly by the carrier,* sins!l tin box, eucTosed in int iron our, about the site of p stn*ll tea-chest, and put into a hag. Oli the 7th of February, I H 1.1, the box was. as usual, sent a porter, and deli vered to David Smith, the carrier; it contained notes in the mount of 1.682/. chiefly of the British Listen Company, Bonk of Scotland, Ayr Bank, soil untie notes of the Galloway Bank. They were fram IL to 20/. each, and not tome torn than O t iose generally in circulation. The notes were walked with a privet. mask by Robert M•Kie. now io the AVest Indies; the mark was the letters f m, Pt smell letter., written in led ink, on the left band corner on the beck of the note. Minas 'hewn I 5L note of the Galloway Banking Company, mud after looking at it minutely. said be saw n srain on the part of the note where the private mark had been; and again narrowly inspecting it through a magnifying-glass. baid, he thurglit he saw soneethiv like the Mil of the" Charles Moreland, formerly accountant at Straw. raer to the Paisley Bank, know; that parcels of n otes were sent weekly. from Strummer to Ayr. Being hewn a 54 note, recognised the private mink on the note; part of the at. is obliterated, but enough remains to convince Inns it is une of the notes put into the box which wee stolen (the note was handed to the Jury) three days after the box was sent di in February 181.2. Notice was Peat the Bank it had not arrived. I. acquainted with the Prisoner's hand-wnting, and idttittifter it on the letters and papers now *been him, though in one of the letters it appears to be considerably disguised. Bring +hewn a SI. note, says it is one he received from George Furness, hatter in Wigton, on 4th September, 1817, at which time the private mark was more distinct than now. Sheaved the 'Kite int when he got it to Robert M`Kie, the ver sion who marked the notes. A number of other notes ,hewn witness, but cannot recognise the mark on any of them, they are So much wore and soiled. Witness said that they appeared to him to lime undergone some process in order to take the private mark out. John Walker, who was porter to the Paisley Bank at Simmer in 1812, proved the delivery of the box to David Smith. David Smith was employed to carry the box be longing to the Paisley Batik. Got it from Welker on the 7th February 1112, and put it into his cart. Swot at Hugh Ross's, at BoHamra,. Did not see him that night when he arrived. Witness bought some dried fish at Bollaiitroe, which he packed into the front of the cart on one side. He thus put the Batik box in the middle of the cart, and a large box on the other title; mid in tins situation witness sheeted the Cart and fastriad it down. Next fllO,ll ing he went oft to Ayr. the cart being under his own eye all the way, and on his arrival at Ayr he immediately unpacked the cart to take out the box, and discovered it was missing. Ills brother and Thomas Orr were then present. Witness im mediately took a horse aid rude back to Ballantrae in search of the box. Witness being in use to carry the Bank box to Prisoner's house, had frequent conversstions with him about it. Roos silted wit. ness if he thought the notes in the box were sum. bored—said lw supposed they were. Ross said the big notes might be numbered, but did tint suppose the small were so. Witness had **watch dog *lnch went with the cart. Tbe dog went with him that day to Bat!Mime. Roesilesired he would not loosen tlw dog. as lie was su 6eive that he was afraid of him. The dog took ill soon after witness left Bid. lantrae, and thinking he would die, left him at a house by the way. The carts were usually left without doors all night. under charge of the dog. Upon witness's return to Bollantrae in search of the box. he gut nu account of it. He saw Ross, and told hint lie had missed it ; Ross asked him if lie had lost the box, or if lie thought it had been stolen ? Witness replied that it must have been stolen. Ross being told that witness had bought fish from one Coulter, said that it might have been taken by him, but of this witness never suspected Coulter. Witness stopt at several places on his way to Ballantrae, but his cart was never opened, rod is sure the box could ma drop oot. . - John Smith, brother of the last witness, remem bers the Bank box bring missed by hie brother at opening his cart on his arrival at Ayr. The week before the lota was lost, witness was in Ross's house, when he asked witness particularly about the Batik box: what be bad a-year for it ? ‘Vitiless said 71. 7s. Rosa said he wondered he ran such a risk for so little money; witness said he considered it no greater risk than carrying goods; in which Ross seemed to concur, saying that the notes would be all numbered. Witness on one occasion left the Bank box by mistake at a house, where Mr. More land, of the Bank, went and got it. Thomas Orr was present with the Smiths when their cast arrived, and raw David Smith go into the c.irt for the Batik box, when lie exclaimed ► " Good God, tl►r box is not here!" and seemed much cotiluard. Hia brother was in a great piliblUll at Iritn. Jean Alexander was servant to the Primmer in Mt. Knows the two Salida. corners. came to his house. Recollects D. Smith bring tffere the night before the Blink box wis Inst ; her roaster came hone that night at eleven o'clock, while Smith was in the I ttttt or. and lwTore lie had goti e to bed. Ross was very drunk when hr came home; he went nitro a small Elmo off the kitchen, and witness does not recollect seeing him again that night. The closet Ro‘is went into was sivt his sleeping place, dud be must have left it, as•witness slept in the closet that alight. Tlie;..Prisosier usually slept its the liar, oppo.ite the street door. William WC° t •k, (sinner*, Writer and Mrs genff" in now Ayeknows the ,Pri owner's affairs were in cut es arras-ed stale, as he executed several diligesic gainsr him in the years 1811-12. Mathew Stott lived in smote neighbourhood with the Poisoner about a. 34:irvirter the Dusk box was stolen. %Vent with a- letter from Ross to Robert Hill. iii Cairn; it contained a 5/. note.— When Mr. !fill opened the lesser and took it out, he remarked it was very frail; witness looked at the note in his hand ut the lime, and subscribed his name on it two months afterwards. Shewn the note and identified it. Mr. hill threw the cover from him, which witness piel.ol up and gave to the !oil man to write his tickets on. Skean the piece of paper .and identified it. Robert HAL horse-dealer, got a letter from the Prisoner with a .5/. note in it, which he gave to the tollinatrat Cairn-Ryan, about ass hour niter he re ceived it, fur small notes; shears the note, says it bears his name in his own hand-writing; witness threw the cover from him when lie opened it ; Pri soner owed Nut money, and the 51. were put to his account. Thomas Hunter kept Cairnsilyan toll-bar in 1813 ; got a 5/. note from Mr. Hill. horse-dealer, in tise summer of that year ; gave small :Mies for st ; witness paid the mite to Mr. 0011011; got also pirct. of paper from Mathew Scott, to write accounts ou, which he now sees and identifies. This note was traced to have been paid to tleorke Furness, hat-manufacturer. in Wigton, Cumberland, who said he got it about five years ago ; it was much worse, and was dated in October 1811 ; shunt two hours alter he got it, witness paid it to Mr. Modem], at the Batik, and put his name on it at his request. Thomas Carruthers got some notes from the Pri soner at Ballintrea, in January last ; there ware six 51. notes. The stoles HWY thews' him are the same. Cuwau, partner of Messrs. Rower and Co. bankers, Air, set elvell a letter cositaining two 51. notes, signed I'. W. Christian, requesting other notes for them to he scot to that address; the letter was answered two days thereafter, enclosing a Bank of England note for the same ; winless cannot swear this letter is the Prisoner's hand-writing ; witness received another letter, signed G. Jas. Crollicra. enclosing two 5/. and four et. es. notes, rather in a worse state than those in she letter signed Christians ; three days alter receipt, this letter was answered, enclosing other 'lofts; witness knows 'he last-mentsusted letter to be written by the Pri ironer, though the writing is disguised ; witness suspected so at the time it wits received, but dues not recollect having said so, unless. perhaps, to Mr. Johnston. who was Procurator Fiscal for the County, is. 1813. The following is a literal copy of the first letter received by Messrs. Hunter and Co. (and the letters to the other bankers are of similar import) : " Broomielaw, ilith Oct. 1317 —Gentlemen, having been in the north upon the fisiiing station, I got most of my money spoiled with brink; 1 enclose you two of your notes, which I will thank you change and address to me, T.
