In laying before the public the following observations, which have been forwarded to us on the misstatements in the Alarming Chronicle and l'imes itewapapers, respecting Sir 11. I)avy s method of protecting the Copper Sheathing of Ships' bottoms, we arc influenced by the great stake which the shipping interest of Great Britain have as con nected with this su , jcct, and net by the slightest necessity of vindication the reputation of Sir Ilumpliry Davv, which the public opinion has long since placed beyond the reach Vaspersion. In my eroiwer to sa attack on the originality of Sir Ilumphry they- > plan fee .lefer.ding the copper sheathing of ships, tAnnais of Philosophy, vol. O. pane I It) I have said that the defended me tal is "AMC liable to In tam foul from the adhesion or weeds, bents cles, &e. than the undefended. Such &statement first appeared in a provincial paper siln .0 Joist or July Lust, and was copied into some of the hoedon laity prints, but I catinot now recollect the names of either the one or the otlisr, a circumstance, however, of no conse quence to my present purpose. 'The fact was stated in positive tennaord I waa Informed, by what I believed to be good authority, that it was correct. I was the lent antioua to inquire more particu. lady into It, became, even if true to the full extent, I felt convinced that Sir Humphry Davy would find no difficulty in obviating the ;nil, by redecute the envy of the defensive action; and my con. victim on that heel remains eashaken. Had my inquiries, how ever, been mote minute, I should have been more guarded in ad • 'flitting the fact as • general result; for I have since leaned thet rite assertion requires much qualification to make it cons ist ent with molt I Po rot know whether or not the passage in question has given rise to several mooted. statements Which stave lately appeared in Anne cf the London patient; but the subject having been revived, and as it appears tome in no very laudable spirit, I am anxious at least to do away any false impressions that I may have uninten tionally occasioned, by putting your readers in possession of such facts r have recently core to any knowledge, and on the 114;•• curacy of which they may rely. But first a word cc two as to the newspaper assertions. In the Aiernint Chrenick of Ontober In, an extract is given from a weekly publication, called . 7'he Chemist, which, after deny. ing to Sir If umphry the merit of originality, concludes, "There is, however, a more seriaue objection to the method. proposed. It has been tried, and it has failed." This is a short way of settlir.g an question at all events, and when we are indifferent whether the decision be just car ttot, is, perhaps, as good at any other. Pretty much to the same purpose, and perfectly in the nine spirit, is rn article in the Times newspaper, October 16, nn the same aubje.t. After string 3lr. il uscheti s experiments, it speaks thus of Sir Humidity's :—The experiment eo far suc ceeded., as to protect the topper team decay ; but it was soon round out, that vessels covered on this plan have returned, after short voyages, perfectly foul; their buttons covered with sea weeds, barnacles, and other worms. The remedy, therefore, is worse than the disease." A little further, we hare another there fire. The learned President's experimeata may therefore. be regarded as a failure, so far at advantage to navigation is concerned, however useful they may be to chemical science, and however pleasant they may have been to himself, in procuring a simmer excursion at the public expense to the North Sea and tie Baltic." Whether these and similar attempts to prejadice the public in:ad against an invention, which, there is every reason to believe, well afford an effectual term* for a serious national evil, are to be ...tribunal to sheer qmorance, or a lee venial origin, I know not ; tut whatever bears the impress of superior intelligence, is sure to provoke the epleen of invidious arinlism. It was so with another important discovery of Sir II umphry Davy's, for even the precious been: of safety . to thousands could not protect his lamp from the wets of certain petty caviller ! Posterity will be more just. But to the facts, and by their evidence let oar readers judge of the seraracy and justice of the newspaper statements, and the bold as article, that the experiments have failed. The two harbour boats which gave rise to the original exagge. rased account. were purposely over defended by a surface of zinc, in the proportion of about 11.2lith of that of copper, the object of them preliminary eapetimems being solely to ascertain the efficacy of the plan as a preservative of the copper,, without reference to any ulterior effects. 'These boats were stationed in Portsmouth Harbour, and the copper remained bright for nearly three menthe, when it became coated with carbonate of lime, to the rough surface shich, the colliery:in always floating in the summer months in Por.sniouth flat boor, adhered, and these soon caught other weeds; bet they were all loose, and there were neither barnacles, nor any a her nor any wood.destroying worms, attiongat them ; and it is more than probable, that the same weeds would have ad. lend even to carbonate of copper. Except in harbour, there is every reason to think that carbo nate of lime could not adhere to the copper, even with excess of protection, and the conferee must have been watitiell oft in a ship st sea. Unprotected copper, until it is worn in holes, cormiles so not that no pemtanent surface remains to which weeds can adhere but when If: re are inequalities in the surface, they adhere readily enough even to the poisamous oxide of copper. Ido not be lieve that any if the pmtectors placed upon ships are in such mess as to occasion any deposit. arid if they are a little posi tive, or nearly-in equilibria. the whole surface remains smooth, and the adhesion of weed and sliell.fiah is prevented. As fares the enperiauents hitherto made by Sir 11. Davy enable one to judge, do requisite proportion of protecting surface to that of the topper, is watewhere between 1.120 and 1.2.10, but even 1.300 will save asses than half the-cower of the navy. In reply to the asairtlon that protected ships have returned after abort voyages pct . /eerie foul, and the delicate insinuation that Sir Ilumphry Davy has been atnaming himaelf by a voyage to the Bal tic at the public expanse, I subjoin the following einem the Swe aty to the Admiralty, and his answer. British 3luaeuns, Oct. 22, 1824. Illy Dear Sir—You have seen, 110 doubt, a paragraph in the Toots newspaper of the With instant, stating " that et:sects cop gold en Sir Llumphry Davy's plan with protectors, have returned after sheet voyages perfectly foul." In the saute paragraph it is aminsinnated, that Sir H. Davy's late voyage to the Baltic win sole at the public expense. Pray allow me to ask you if these statements, or either of them, be correct or otherwise ? I am, my dear Sir, your faithful Servant, J. O. CHILDREN. Jobs Barrow, Esq., he. &c., Admiralty. Admiralty, Oct. 22. peedPM Sir—in answer to your inquiries respecting vessels cop. on Sir Hunaphry Davy's plan with protectors having re turned after short voyages perfectly foul; and whether Sir Hum. ploy Davy made a voyage to the Baltic at the public expense, I here to state, that with regard to the former, no report whatever has been received at this office front nny one vessel supplied with pro tectors, nor am las that any one of them has returned into port. And with regard to the second point, I can safely say. _that Sir liumphry's pasaage to the Naze of Norway (not to the Baltic) was not attended with any expense either to this or any other depart ment ot government. The fact is simply this:—The Comet steam vessel having been ordered to proceed to Heligoland at the express nquestof the King of Denmark, for the purpose of fixing with pre. men, by means oh numerous chronometers, the don :etude of that Wand, in order to connect the Danish with the British survey ; and the Board of Longitude having recommended that the voyage slioalif he extended as far as the Naze of Norway. for the purpose et ascertaining the longitude of that important point, Sir Huniphry Davy volunteered to proceed in her at his own expense, to enable Lim to attend in person to certain experiments which he was desir ous of staking on the action of sea water on the copper of a vessel passing rapidly through that medium. If soy illiberal ennatruction should have been conveyed to the puhlin as your note would seem to imply, you are at liberty to make u se of this reply in any way you may deem fit. I am, my dear Sir, very sincerely yours, 1. 0. Children, Esq. JOHN BARROW. l'erbum non arnplias addam. J. G.

The wind was from the west, and swept over the town with great viuknce for nearly an hour. It was so sudden, that, though of short duration, several lives, it is ascertained, were lost on the river, and we fear that we may yet hear of more ca lamities than we have been able to collect. The Fox, Manchester Old Quay Company's flat, was upset between Ralehead and Ince—it is supposed in consequence of hav ing. grounded on a bank, and being thus exposed to the muted fury of the wind and tide. The crew consisted of ' three individuals, all perished ; and the bull of the vessel wN driven up as far as Runcorn. Another flat, belonging to the Duke's Cummenv, was sunk in the deep of the middle l'aslage, between Dale and Ince, and her crew (of three Perians it is supp ose d) a l so per i s h e d . A b oat b e l ong i ng t o William Gin, foundered outside of the rock ; two men drained, one of them named Cole, and two saved. A schooner, the Zephyr. from Malaga, fruit laden, was driven on s h ore near the Potteries, and filled with water. An American ship, with timber, was also stranded above th e .jeteeti's Dock. A gig, with several hands, is also I „ n iaaing. A schooner was driven on shore on the Score flank, opposite Ilale-head ; and a Welsh sloop called the Rive yeas sunk—crews saved. Several other vessels went en shore 31 and near Ince, amongst which was another of the Duke's flats, the master of which, it is feared, was drowned. A boat belonging to John Clements, a King's Dock boatman, who attended to the watering of vessels, 411 `‘ .1 / a a beg ; himself and three other. perished. Several vessels were injured in the docks, by hying driven against each other. It is remarkable, that this gale, or rather sudden and destructive gust, was escaped, so far as we fan learn. by the vessels immediately opposite the town ; but was felt in its 101 l fut y higher up the river. Hall it iceurreel during the night, we should probably have hail many more dittresiing accidents to recorde—Lierrp&o/ Jferesey. TRIAL OP MR. FAUNTLEROY. OLD BAILEY, Sarustur, Oct. 30. Public attention has been so uninterruptedly occupied with err.; I thing that concern% this unfortunate person sie.ce his cormuittal, ' that a very extraordinary degree of littered was excited by his trial on Saturday. At seven, and so early even as fire e'clack • on the morning of Saturday. the anxious expectant% for accommo dation be,:an to aseemble at the entrance doors of the 014 Malley Sr ssions Muse. Tickets or adinierion were issued by the She riffs, Amts. Browne and Key. The students' box s•as occupied by many who were, and marry who ware not students. IVe are the more disposed to notice this circumstance. as several students, who ere entitled to accommodation in Courts of I.aw were excluded, for the conw.nienee of sonic more favoured persns, who tither purchased or otherwise procured admission. Peckers were sent to the Morning and (we believe) Evening Papers, ' with the exception of our establishment. Whether this arose from inadvertence or partiality it is of little coesequence now to inquire. Many persons of distinction were in attentlaece previous to the commencement of the Sessions businrss, at whoa sir. Anthill me. sided, previous to the arrival of the Judges. Lords Nugent sod Alontford, Mr. Irvine, M.P.. sad the tiovernor and Sub-GoVeritor of the Bank of England, were in Court. A party of ladies men. pied one box oa the left aide of the dock ; on the other aide of the dock those who attended for the Evening Ihipers were provided with temporary necommodatio:t. Sir Janie% l'erring, Mr. Alder man Wood, Mr. Alderman C. Smith, &e., were in attendance from an early hour, and many Members of the Common Council were scattered through the body of the Conn-house. The Court. house, though full, was not unpleasantly or oppressively Crowded during the trial. Sir J. Shaw was on the bench by eight o'clock, and moon after that hone the celebrated Ex-Sheriff appeared at the Counsels' table.— The of icen of the Court removed him thence. but he claimed his right, as Ex.Sherilf., to appeal there, which the city authorities ac knowledged. Parhins then crossed by the witness-box to the open space in front of the duck, and stationed himself Immediately fusing the place where the witness would stand. Mr. Brown then proceeded to the Ex•Sheritf, and asked him whether he heel ever had any conneetlan with Mr. Fau...tlvroy. Parkins replied, only as a banker. Mr. Brown observed, that the 'dation which he had taken was a very prominent one, perhaps painfully so ; and said that his remaining there might unnecessarily moduce pain to the prisoner, who was about to be pieced on his defence, and therefore ought not to be subjected to any interruptions which might be avoided. and suggested the propriety of his withdrawing to some station where he might not so intmestistely face the prisoner. Per kins, though evidently with %dole reluctance, withdrew to the back of the Court. Mr. Baron Gan Row and Mr. Justice Pant took their vests on the Bench at ten o'clock, and in a few minutes afterwards Mr. Fauntleroy appeared at the bar. He was conducted to the dock by the two City Marshals, and the turnkey of Newgate. The most in. tense interest pervaded the Court on his entrance. The strictest silence was observed, and every eye fixed upon him in riveted at tention. He was elegantly dressed in a full suit of black. Ile ad vanced with downcast eyes and faltering step to the bar, on which he leant, seemingly for necessary support. His face was extremely pale, and his whole deportment betokened deep depression at ex posure to the public gaze. Throughout the day this feeling overcame him. There was a consciousness of his situation— s sense of humiliation at the condition to which he was reduced. The sense of shame operated so powerfully on the mind of 31r. Faunteleroy, on first appearing at the bar, that lie was Anon in. sensible to what was passing atound him. Indeed he was an over whelmed and abstracted in titled, that on the first count of the dinment being read, and his being queetioned how he would be tried, he was obliged to be prompted, • By Dad and nay country." (In the question being repeated on the second count, it wan neces sary to prompt him again, as lie had forgotten the answer which be had given but a minute or two before. Subsequently, however, he partially recovered, and conversed with his Solicitor. Mr. May. hew, who stood beside him during the whole trial. In personal ap pearance Mr. Fauntleroy is neither prepossessing. nor remarkably otherwise. His features are well formed, but their combine. tioo does not present any striking ir.dicatien of intellectual qua. lilies. His hair is quite grey, and this causes him to look older than lie really is. Ile is compxet and muscular in form ; his deportment and manners (it we may speak from the disadvantageous circumstances under which we saw him) are those of a gentleman. At intervals, he heaved a deep sigh. He vat at the corner of tke dock, and fur the greater part of the trial, tested his had upon his ann, and covered his face with his handkerchief. Ile did not look once at the spectators who filled the Court, but stole a rapid glance ores/Woolly at the Judges Ind the Attorney (lateral. When the Attorney-General read the forged paper found in his private hoz, his whole triune shook; he darted his eye quickly at the Learned Gentleman, and then dropped his had, and sup • ported it with both hands. Mr. Fauntleroy read his detence with a I char and determined tone and manner. lie was rather emphatic in that part of it in which he was anxious to impress tau the minds of the Coart and Jury, that he did not appropriate ; the produce of the sale of the stock to private purposes, but with a view of sosmining the credit and respectability of the house. There was not, we thought, an equal confidence of assertion in his I voice and manner when -he alluded to his satisfactory treatment of his wife. Ile spoke of being left to provide kir the difficulties of , the Bank, and not being held responsible for theroode in which he made provision, with feelings of deep emotion. His denial of the statement of his private extravagance, by dissipated habits, was the , point or his address, however, to which he seemed particularly troll : edema to attract attention. The Deputy Clerk of Arraign.; opened the business by addren ; ing the prisoner at the bar in the usual form, and arraigning him • upon seven different indictments for forgery, in the following man • net : _ . The lint—" Henry Fauntleroy, yini stand indicted for that you, on the Ist of June, in the 35th of the lilt King, in the parish of St. Mary-10-Donne. did feloniously and falsely make and forge,. and counterfeit • certain deed, purporting to hear the name ut Frances Young, for the transfer of 5,43111. Lung Annuities of her monies in the Stocks established by the Act of the fah of the late King George the 11., with intent to defraud the said France• Young of the sold stock." A second count laid the crime as with intent to defraud the Go vernor and Cornrow , of the Bank of England. A third count laid the indictment as tor causing the said instru ' meat to be forged. A fourth count, for feloniously uttering and disposing of the said instrument, knowing it to be forged; and there were three other counts, varying the mode of specifying the charge, according to the technical subtleties of pleading. M'hen this abstract of the first indictment was read, The Deputy Clerk of the Arraigns asked the prisoner, "Henry Fautulerny, bow say you, are you guilty or not guilty of the said felony ?" The priooner, in a faint voice, replied, "Not Guilty." The ikputy Clerk—" How will you be tried ?" The prisoner, still in the same low tone of voice, and prompted by the Governor of Newgate, answered- - By Gad and my eouit uy." Tbe prisoner was then successively arraigned on the following six indictments:— The second, for that he. on the 3d of June, in the 33th year of the late King, in the pariah of St. Mary-la-bonne, did falsely forge and counterteit, and cause to be falsely forged and countoleited, • ce:tain transfer, purporting to be that of Frances Young, for 3.00 M. of her Annuities, with intent to defraud her. The forgery and fraud were also laid as in the lino indictment, as with in. tent to defraud the Governor and Company of the Bank of Eng land. There were counts also for the wilful tittering and dispos ing of the same, with a variation of the names alleged to be de frauded. The third Indictment, which was laid in the same technical form as the preceding, was far forging the transfer of the stock held in the name of T. Lister, Esq. of Wexford, in Ireland, and uttering the same. The thurth hulictment was for forging a transfer of 3,000!. stock, also uttered in the same name as the foregoing, on the 16th of De cember. in the tiOth year of the late King's reign. The fifth ineictment was for forging the transfer of 435/. stock, to defraud the Bank anti John Griffiths, on cite 30th. of June, in the 4th year of the present King's reign. 'I he sixth indictment was foe, on the some date, forging and putting away . • transter of 3010. stuck held in the sante name; and the seventh indictment was for freeing and uttering. on the 21 of November last, a rower of attorney to transfer 6,300 f. Annuities, entered in the name of Jacob Tubbs. To each of these seven indictments the prisoner, in the same sub dued tone a voice, and without raising his eyes front the bar, pleaded Not Guilty, and put himself for trial " upon God and his country." The reading of these indictments occupied the Court 23 minutes. Towards the close of the reading. Mr. (ii;stwirr rose, and applied to the Court for permission to have the prisoner accommodated with a chair at the bar. Mr. Justice PARK—The application is of amiss made on the 'round of the priscrner's indisposition. Mr. Guaxev—Certainly, my Lord. Mr. Justice Patte-0, then, let hint a chair. A chair was immediately handed to the prisoner, who sat upon it at the right hand corner of the dock, leaning his head upon his hand, and covering the greater part of his face with a white hand kerchief, his whole demeanour being at this titne that of a person labouring under deep despondency. The prisoner having pleaded, 31r. Justice Pate in:brrned the Middlesex Jun, who sat in the box, that they must remove to make way f o r the London Jnry. His Lordship said, that having , understood from the officer of the Court, that the indictments were laid fur offences committed within the Jurisdiction of the city of London, the prisoner must necessarily be tried by a London Jury. ' As. however, there were other indictments against the prisoner, it ' might he necessary to have • second Jury renisir.ing in Court. The Foreman of the Middlesex Jury—What is the probable • time, my Lord, that it may be necessary fur us to rem tin ? , Mr. Justice PA m x-1 cannot pretend to say ; I know sorbing of the indictments, except what I have heard miring their reading in Court. Of course I have perused the usual depositions transmitted to the Judges, but I know nothing further. I merely throw out 1 the hint of the prnaihilit vof a seetioii Jury being necessary, with out being able to say at ail whether it is probable, or not, that their attendance will be required. , The 31iddlesez Jury then retired from the box, to make way for the London Jury. The Deputy Clerk of .lersigns again nil:tressed the prisoner— ' " Henry Fat.ntleroy, these good men, whose names you will hear cniled utter, and who du appear, are to pass betwem our Sovereign you. life and judgment. You can challenge Lord the K , , , g and any of them ; audit yeti do challenge, yuu will tic se, thtr:!ore, THE BRITISH PRESS. when they come to the hook to be sworn, anti haute they are sworn, as you are empowered." The for.‘iising Jurors were then empanelled widow challenge, and the pti•oner committed to their charge, upon the first indict ment, for for;;Mg and tattering the transfer of fi.450!. Long Annui ties, held at the Bank in the name of Franca-Young : 'John Keels. Foreman; John :Bowan. 'Phomas Reeve, Edward Joke, Job Elliot, Job Horton, John Proctor, Thomas Driver, Abraham Agar, Thomas Clarke, Thoma, Joncs,ar.d Wan. Whit church. Mr. Law read the abstract of the Inciictment. . . The ATTORNEY-Oft/IEIIAL then rose, and stated the ease for the prosecution as follows r—e May It please you, my Lord and Gendernen of the Jury—Yon have heard, during the reading of this indictment, that the prisoner at the bar studs charged with fraudulently forging and ousting a certain Power of Amenity for the transfer of certain stock, entered in the Bank of England ia the name of Mini Francis Young. It is my duty on the part of the prosecution, to state to you the circumstances art cf which. according , n my inatructions, the present prosecution has spring, and afterwanla to lay h.:fore you the evidence which I have to offer in support of this indictineut. In discharging the painful dirty which has thus devolved upon me, I sin butane to confine my self implicitly and strittlyro a statement of recta. This is a cri minal charge, and in such a one, I am mere especially milled upon, when the life of a prisoner is involved in the result, and where his Counsel are precluded by the rule of law from replying to any gene ral statement of Counsel for the prosecution, I am, I say in such a case, more peculiarly called ueon to abstain from any effort calcu lated to excite your feelings, or front giving any undue colouring to the Gets. If, therefore. I were in the siighteat degree to aggravate the facts, which, according to my instractions, you will have in the regular rimer of the trial before you, I should not only not do my duty in the manner in which it ought to be done, but travel beyond that line which is decorous and proper on so painful an occasion. !Living made these preliminary observations upon the manner in which, according to my judgment, I am hound to perform my duty. it will scarcely be necessary fur me to put you, Cientlemen of the Jury, on your guard against any inferences disadvantageous to the prisoner, w!iich you may have formed from circumstances which !reached your knowledge before you assembled in that hox. The prisoner at the bar is run:aid to your judgment and decision, not on any information, mispicien, or surmise, or impression, which may ' have afflicted your !Linda, by any thing represented to h ave occurred out of delors before this day ; for theme, if you have funned any, you must ride:irony, as mutes an possible, to dismiss from your recollec tion ; the prisoner at the liar being strictly entitled to your judgment and decision ; not, I reprst, upon this previously acquired informs. Lion respecting his ease, but upon the evidence offered before you thin day, in the progress of the trial, and on that alone. I must also beg leave to remind you, that you are moistly called upon to dismiss from your minds the recent recollection* which you must have front the forma of tlita day's proceedings, that there are other indictments found against the prisoner, utron which he stands corn. milted for trial, mid that you are to look upon the present indict ment as if it were an insulated one, and exactly u if it were the only one which the prisoner was called upon to answer. I know that these observations may he unnecclary, butt still I feel it my ditty to give you this precautionary admonition. The prisoner at the bar, ntlemen, was well known as a partner in the banking-house of Marsh. Sibbald, and Co. of Bemers-ameet, which was established about 30 years ago. Ilia father was a Ourtner in the original firm ; he had previously been an active clerk in a banking house in the City, and the partners who established the firm, not being equally men of business themselves, gave him a share to avail themeelvesof his Mpractical information in the management of their affair. The elder fr. Fauntlemy died in the year 1807, and his situation was imme diately occupied by his son, the prisoner at the bar, upon whom also, frir his practical knowledge of business, and the comparative superiniity which he had in this mpect over his co-partners, nearly the whole of the actual business devolved. In the year 1813, Miss Frances Young, of Chichester, berme a customer to the firm, and had then entered in her name at the bank a sum of 6.4501. in what were called the 3 per Cent. Cienols. She gave the firm of Marsh and a power of attorney to receive the dividends in her name. but gave them no power whktever to sell or otherwise dispose of the principal. In may, 1815. however, an application was made at the Bank, arid represented as having been an made in behalf of this lady. to sell by her power of attorney, 6,1100/. of this stock. You are probably aware of the forms prescribed by the Bank of Eng land in transacting the business of these transfers. The applicant goes to the Bank, and obtains a slip of paper, which he fills up with the name of the party in whine behalf he applies ; he describes the stock in the Bank, the amount aced particulars required to be trans ferred, and the name and address of the person to whom the trans fer is to be made. Upon receiving these instructions in the form inserted upon the slip of paper, the Bank clerk, to whom It is de. livered, hands over a power of attorney, which is to Ge transmitted to the person who is to make the transfer, for the purpoe of re. cei- ing the requisite signature.. It is customary at the Bank to preserve these slips of paper, bet in this instance the particular slip has been lost, and it nanny' therefore he said to Idiom it was de. livered, it being usual to indorse the nan:e of the party on the slip. But the power of attorney, which wax prepared according to the slip so made, is preserved, with die necessary attestations of the witnesses. There must bn to these powers of attorney two attesting witneases, wish the description of their respective names and ad dresses. This power cif attorney, purported to be signed by Fian cee Young, and that signature would be proved to be a riegery. The attesting witnesses were John son and Janus Tyson, clerks in the bank of Marsh and Co.. and their signatures were also forgeries—for they never transacted any business with Mies Frances Young. and never executed any trar.sfer of stock for her. In all these documents it Is required by the Bank. that the date shall be set forth in words at length. This is au clone its this forged transfer, and it sill be proved to be In the hand-writing of the prisoner at the bar, in all its parts. It must be 'quite clear, therefore, that the forgery has been committed either by the prisoner, or with his knowledge. The attesting witnesses are his clerk., wen whose hand-writing must have been known to hint, and a forgery of which he must at once have detected, if bronglit to him by a third party. The practice at the Bank of England was, that, wirer: deist trans. fen, after being duly filed, were executed, they must be deposited for twenty.four hoots with the clerk, fur the purpose of being cons. pared with the books, and for such other inspection and precaution as were deemed necessary on these occasions the the security of rnYi pro . so far as time and circumstances allowed. After all these pre minary steps, the applicant was further called upon before the instrument was completed, to write st the bottom these words : " I demand this power to be executed in my name," signed by the party. On the 31st of !Bay, or the Ist of June, the prisoner at the bar aeunded in person at the Bank, and demanded in due form the execution of the said power of attorney ; an that here you will have before you a power of attorney prepared in the prisoner's hund-writing, purporting to be executes! by Frances Young, pur porting to be attested by two of his clerks, with whose hand-writ ing, 1 repeat, he must have been necessarily acquainted ; and he himself presenting the instrument, and demanding that it be exe cuted in the usual manner. But suf f icient as this would be to prove the case, it is not all, for l am about to state to you, that we have beside% a document, of a character so extraordinary, so sin. gularly complete in all its parts, as to leave no parible doubt that the prisoner at the bar was the party who had committed the of fence. When the prisoner was taken into custody in his own count. ing-house, he, in the presence of the officer, locked his private desk, with a key which was then attached to his watch; that key was afterwards taken from him by the officer; and when the re spectable Solicitor for the Bank, who conducts this prosecution, went to search the house in Beeners-street for the prisoner's papers. ro ascertain whatever particulars he could therein find respecting these transactions, he found in one of the rooms of Messrs. Marsh's bank, in which tin cases containing title-deeds of their customers were deposited. and on which the names of the owners were in scribed, one tin box without a name. This led him to examine it. The key WSJ found in the prisoner's private desk, which he had himself locked in the presence of the officer, and on opening this box Wallfourd a number of private papers belonging to the pri soner, and among them the extraordinary document of which I have apprised you, and winch ran thus, all in the hand-writing of the prisoner:— "Consols, 11,1511., standing in the name of my trusteeship. 6.0001. E. W. Young. 6.00111. Consols General Young. 6.0001. hong Annuities, Frances Young. Another 6.000/. Lady Nelson, 11.3931. Mrs. Ferrer, 20,0000- Four per Cents. Earl of Chnory, 7,00 W. T. Owen, 9,4001. J. W. Parkins. 4,000!. Lord Aboyne, 6,000 L P. Moore and John Minh, 21.0001." This paper contained a total of sums considerably exceeding 170,0004, was all written in the prisoner's hand-writing, and these words. in the same hand, followed, and concluded the fact of the prisoner's guilt:— I In order to keep up the credit of Mr house. 1 bare forged powers of attorney, and have thereupon sold out all these stints, without the knowledge of any of my partners. I have given credit in the accounts tor the interest when it became due. "May 7th, IHI6. (Signed) " H utay FACNTLIROT." These words followed:— _ . " The Bank began first to refuse our seeeptances, and thereby to destroy the credit of our house; they shall therefore mart for it." This is the extraordinary document to which I allude, and was there ever a record of fraud more intelligible, and yet more negli. gently kept? There is no doubt, I think, that when the prisoner at the bar drew up this singular and conclusive document, that he contemplated some intention for which it was applicable. perhaps to abscond, and protect his partners from any suspicion of partici pation in his acts. Ile the intention, however, what it may, it to abscond, it was clear the prisoner had subsequently altered his in. tension; and, at all events, nothing but unaecnuntnble negligence could have prevented him from afterwards destroying a document of such a nature, and so fatal to his character. The Bank of Eng land, in consequence of this information, proceeded to examine the private accounts kept by the prisoner with his tinn, and they there found that the accounts of the panics whose monies were featidulently transferred were regularly kept up, and the interest ",.on the dividends as regularly canted to them, every half year, as it' the original stock remained in being. In the particular ease before you, the broker (Mr. Spurting) employed by the prisoner at the bar sold out the stock in question to the amount of 2,4601.25. rah. that is, exclusive of the commission for the sale, which, according to practice, the broker divided with the firm. Thrill amount was paid over by the broker to the banking.house of Alessr+. 31arten and Co., who transacted business for 3lessta. 31arsli and Co. in the l'itv, and is regularly noted in the day-book of the litter, by a clerk by whom the entry was made at the dictation of the prisoner. But, in further management of the accounts. 10 passing from the dsy.bvuk to the private ledger, tilts sum appeared to have been carried to Mr. Fanntleroy's pleats account. The general produce was. however, afierwerds posted, so as to keep up the accounts ac centing to the origitial amount entrusted to the hank by the respec tive eustmners. You will, Gentlemen of the Jury, naturally ask younehree, as this occurred AO far back es the year 1815, how it happened, cent during the successive ran whirls have intervened. the dividends c0r.1.1 have been so mareiged by the prisoner in his accounts as to escape the detection of his partners? The fret, how ever, was, that the prisoner had the entire manegene re for the Linn of their etnek.matket burbles". When the dividends became pay. able, it was the peace ice to make out a list, for one of the partners to g's to tire Rank of England and receive payment. These lists were always pri.pured by the prisoner himself, and he always enn_ irked en to manage the entry hi the books as to correspond with the nominal artiouu; of stock Intrusted to the firm by their cis. tourers. The lest was of course so itreee nut as to make every thing serene enteral in the manner the eirtriee ..sould hare stood had the stock stilt existed, wed sums were always carried on to the accounts, so as to keep up the delusion. It ue:d to be the cestoin for Mr. Marsh to err to the Bank and receive the dividends for the fine ; be lived in the country, and only came to town to perform this part of the benne,* ; he was, therefore, as to all the other ports of the arrangement entirely ignorant, and incapable of detecting the titled. There la another fact which I think it my duty to explain to you ; the note of the broker tor the sale of this particular stock, which Mr. Feentleroy ought, were the transaction a bone/dr one, to have transmitted to the owner, was rimed amongst his other papers in the private tin hex, whirh cow 'lined the extraordinary do cument I have already read to you. These, Gentlemen, are the whole of the facts, which I undertake to establish by evidence be. fore you, again-' the prisoner at the her. I shall tint prove the forgery, by producing the in ierunrent, and proving, by the parties whelk names are said to be af fi xed to it, that the signatures are not thews. I shall pert ;eon , that the handwriting in the body of the instrument is that of the prisoner himself. I shall then, by the prietection of the exile:ordinary document to which I bare alluded, prove that he recorded th e act a. his, ard from the accounts it will be clear that they were FA contitaied by him, with great activity and caution, as to ends the detection of the forgeries, which he alone could have committed. Having stated these facts, I have dis charged my duty in behalf of the prosecution, and it would ill be come Erie to pronounce any opinion upon the effect of such facts. That is your province. Gentlemen of the Jury, after you have heard the r hole details of the evidence. Having said that I have now eller:mrged my duty, I am persuaded, Gentlemen, you will also discharge yours, painful as it mar be. between the prisoner and his country, with an equal ard impartial band. 1 yson sworn, and examined by Mr. Sergeant ROSAXQUET-. I have been a clerk 17 year,' in the banking-house of Marsh, Sib. bald, and Co. The prisoner, whose father was a partner at that time, entered the house in the frame year. 1807. The firm then consisted of Mr. Marsh, who resided at Watford, 31r. S. J. Sib. bald, Mr. Graham, who was a Colonel in the Army, Mr. Strscey, and Mr. Fauntleroy, the father of the prisoner. In 1807, Slr. Fauntleroy, the father of the prisoner. died (the prisoner here sigh. ed deeply). 1 always considered that Sir. Fauntleroy was the most active partner in the establishment. He transacted most of the business himself. I remember the execution of a warrant of attor ney by the primmer in 1815, for the transfer of stock, which stood in the name of Franco Young. of Chichester, in the Three per Cent. Console. Miss Young was a customer, and banked at Marsh, Steamy. and Co.'s (a document was put into the hands of the witness). This is a warrant of attorney, dated 21st of May, 1818, for the transfer of stork front the name of Alin Young to that of Mr. Flower, a eteck-broker. It purports to be duetted by me, and another rink in Marsh and Co.'s bank. It is signed "J. Tyson ;" and alter the signature " J. Tyson," arc the words " Clerk to ,Messrs. Marsh, Sibbold, and Co., bankers, 'keret*. street." The handwriting is not mine, it is that of Mr. Female roy ; I hare no douln of it, as I have been accustomed to see him write daily and hourly, for years. There is also the signature " 11. Fauntleroy" to the power of attorney. It is in the hand writing of the prisoner; it is signed " H. Fauntleroy, Banker. Ikrnernstreet," as attorney for Miss Young; the prisoner then lived in Beniernstreet ; the power of *Homey is for the transfer of 6.45 W. stuck. There was no other James 'l yson, a clerk, in the Bank. John Watson sworn, and examined by the ATTORWTY.O2- wetted. -I have been for 25 sears a clerk in the banking-house of Marsh and Co., and up to the failure of the house; there is no other John IVatson, a clerk, in the house. I see the signature " John Watson," and the words " Clerk to Marsh, Sibbald, and Co., Bankers, Bernernstreet." upon the power of attorney, which is now out into my hands ; it ie the handwriting of Mr. l'auntle. roy. Ido not know Miss Young; my signature is put to this do. eument as an attesting witness to the execution of the power of attorney. I slid nut see Men Young sign the document, as my ettestation purports. I see it is signed tr Frances Young, 1815." The signature and date are in tire prisoner's harnwritine. I see the demand tie the trensfer of the stock ; it is in Sir. Fauntletoy's handwriting. The signature to the dernmel, " 11. Fauntleroy; "is the handwriting of the prisoner. The words, " I demand the trans fer of stock from Frances Young to Fhneer, Gent, stock broker," de. are the handwriting of 3lr. launtlerov. Robert Browning. the younger, sworn-I am a clerk in the Bank of England, in the Three per Cent. Coneola office, and have been for 20 veers. I are this power of attorney now put into my hands, dated Ist June, 181 e. My name is upon the document as the sub. scribing winner. I remember the prisoner bringing the power of attorney to the Bark, and ffiniandirg to act as attorney for Miss Young. I see mite words C. I demand to act," they are written by' the prisoner. and his signature is affixed. I saw the irrisoner write the words " 11.

Witnen--The office businrn is iliaideil into different depart. mer.ts. I have the Bark book in *filch the transfer of Consols is entered. By referring to the day in question, the Ist of June, 1815, I found an entry of Coned' in the name of Miss Frances Young, of Chichester. On that day Min Young had the sum of 5,4501. 3 per Cent. Consolidated Annuities standing in her name. I have seen the book in which transfers of stuck are entered. I hold it in my hind.

It is always signed by the person making the transfer. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL-Now, Sir, see it there LI an entry in that book of the transfer of 6,45 W. stock from Miss Yonng to Flower, stock-broker, on the Ist of June, 1816, and if it is signed, and by whom ? Witness-I find an entry of 5,4501. stock, transferred from the name of Frances Young to Flower, Gent. stock-broker. I find the name of Henry 2 auntleroy, as attorney of Frances Young, spinster, of Chichester. The date "the Ist of June," and the sig. nature, " H. Fauntleroy," arc the proper hand.writing of the pre. sorer, and were written by hint in my presence. My name, as the attesting witness, is written in the margin. The name of the broker appears also to the transfer, thus-" Wm. Flower, Stock Exchange." Sir. A Lett-You swear you saw the prisoner write the demand and sign it ? Witness-Yes, I do. The Counsel for the prosecution proposed to call evidence to show that the Bank had replaced the steel( of which Min Yoking had been defrauded by the prieoner's forging the warrant of attorney ; it being absolutely necessary to drew that she had no interest in the prisoner's conviction before she could be allowed to prove that her signature to the warrant of attorney was a forgtry. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL then called the following witness: Robert Beet sworn, and examined by Ale. Sergeant BOSAW. Qt:ET.-I am Secretary to the Bank of England. and now produce a book containing the orders of the Directors relenve to the sale and transfer of stock. On the 21st of October an order was made by the Directors to purchase 5,6591. 3 per ('girt. Consols, and place it in the name of Miss F. Young, of Chichester. The order of the Di. rectors was confirmed on the 28th of October, and the entry of that order is inserted in the book I produce. iThe -item commenced reading the preamble of the order, stating, tr that whereas certain stock, to the amount of 5,5501. 3 per Cent. Controls, whirls stood in the name of Frances Young. of Chi chester. spinster, had been transferred by means of a forged power of attorney, de. that the Directors had resolved to replace the same," del Mr. 0 uaKET took an objection to the reading of the preamble of the order. Mr. BRODEXICZ also contended, that it was rot admissible evidence, though the minute of the order of the Court of Dinettes might be evidence. Mr. Justice PARE said, that the minute of the order of tare Di. rectors might be read, but he was of opinion that the preamble was Res legal evidence. Witness continued-The entry of the minute is in the head. writing of Mr. Watson, clerk in the Bank. The original order Is in the hand-waiting of the Chairman of the Court of Directoes, and the any is a copy. 'fire order was confirmed or. the 26th of October. I read over the minute to the Court of Directors, and they confirmed the order in my presence. An order was given to the stock.broker of the Bank to buy 5,5501. throe per Cent. Consols ; in pursuance of this older of the Directors, the stuck has been bought, and placed to the account of Mies Young. Benjamin Cale sworn, ited examined by Mr. Lew.-On the 22d of October I was applied to, to make a purchase of 5,1501. in the 3 per Cent.Cionsids, in the name of Sties 2'. ]bung, of ('inches. ter, on the part of the Bank of England. I made the purchase. The cash I paid for the stock was 4,812!. 10s., and it was trans ferred to the name of Miss Frances Young. of Chichester. I after. wards received an order from the Governor of the Bank, to pay me the amount which I had paid for the stock : it was signed try the Governer. I produce the stock receipt, and the Consols are transferred front the name of the Accountant-General to that of Franck Young. Mr. Browning, the Clerk to the Bank of England, was again called, and stated-I produce the ledger in which stock is en. tern!. Mies Young has credit for 4.5501. Consolidated Annuities., in the stock book. The entry is made on the 22.1 ef October, 1824. Mr. Janice Peas.-This evidence does not affect the merits of the case; but it was essential to render Miss Young a competent witness. Had not the stork which it • alleged she has been de frauded of been replaced, she would have had an interest in proving that her sienature to the power of attorney was forged ; but the stock being replaced in her name, she has no interest whatever in the convictiose Mr. GUM NET here rose, and said that he will had an objection to snake to the evidence of that lady. Ile did not deny that pr. of had been given of the Bank having replaced the stink, but no evidence had yet been given that Miss Young had re ceived the dividends from 1816 to the presmt time; ern till that fact was proved, he contended that she wu potent *Ones, t became it was her interest to prove I that she might be enabled to recover her dividends of th The AtTnitwEr-I;ENERAII. said, that he should the dividends bed been paid. • Mr. Frisihtiehl, the Bank Solicitor, proved ths power of &corm,. transferring the sum of 4350 f. 3 , eels to !Atha F.
