The Petition therefore !Hayed that his Lordship would set site the C 1111 l mimioners' order of committal, and, if his Le!rilship thought llsst was asking too much, that lie would direct Ibr Ceeiumiseioise as to calla meeting and rewxa ttttt lc the hank relief, mot also 11/ examine all persons that could throw av light glo file ftultircl, so as to enable them, the Commis ti er., to ...nese to a diffe. rent determination than they had It ass bi► (the So. licitor General's) duty to ale•w to Isis I.ord.lint, that the story of the Petitioner was true. 'rice Petition slates, that it was the custom of the baukeug-Guise of the bankrupts to burn all notes after they Cl/111(1 199 be re-issued. '1 hr fart was, that the property of the batik consiated Ist their torsi nom, and when they issued a quantity of new notes they de. !Hied themselves with the a 1111 l not—and when they destroyed r quantity, they gave themselves credit for them. The Pete honer never brought any capital into the firm ; he had been formerly a clerk in the house, and was Lusty three years a part ner. It was 991111991bil: for him to give any evidence. hut Isis own as to the slrairewtsen of the outer , l 0 11w amount of 17,0001.; for, unfortunately, the firm did not keep a clerk, but there was a circumstance which stroeigly supported his assertion that he dial born the notes, which was, that, al though three years had ,lapsed since the commission issued, not one of the mules which the Petitioner had asserted that be el, •,+r .vrd, Mot been off red to be proved under the com mission. His Lordship would bear Ili his rectellertime, that If he did not i:et-rfere, the Petitioner was doomed to impri. vestment for• file Under these considerations, he trusted that the Court would moot the prayer of the Petition. Mr on the saw side. Mr. liming, Comport fi.r theAsisignees, ►tatel, that his clients had no angry feeling towards the Petitioner, they only wished to perform the trust teposed in them according to the dire. ticris of the Court. It was however singular, that wile': the Petito.iner asserted it was the custom of the banking house to burn their notes when the time had ex pired I or reissuing Ili .m, that he had not brought any proof • f that fact. He could not help thiuking that the most, , of cam.lime notes by commitisug them to the names wa•. !...q, and it was singular that the assignees should find mow: or the same description, to the amount of 9,000/. whir:. .orre not cancelled. It was natural fur the Commis sioner • to) doubt the statement of the Petitioner, and if they doubt. •t, it was their duty to commit him. He would ask would of honourable feelings believe that bankers, uso the ay. of Ilso it bank. owe, would have destroyed their notes to the omouut of 17,000/. The Commissioners did not believe it, and it was fur his Lordship to say whether• he dot or out. From the bankrupts nut having kept darks, it was impossible to get at the truth except by sifting It out of the bankrupts silt their oaths. The Commissioners thought, whether properly or nut was nut for him to say, that the Po. bumper had not answered the questions put to him by tbess satisfactorily. and they took the course pointed out to thaw by the Legi►lature to enforce justice. It was necessary, perhaps, fur him to state, that the Commissioners had not dealt harshly with the Petitioner; they did not commit him on the Ist, gd, or 3d examination, or even the 70th; they did mot do it until they had given him every opportunity of explaining the circumstauce; but on the final ex amination, out being able to du so, they had no course left them hut the one they had taken. However his Lordship might dif•r in °pintos, from the Commissioners, they would have the consolation of knowing that they meted (coin the hest of their honest judgment; but they ■ll knew t►ere were hardly two minds that were susceptible of the same impressions; so if his Lordship differed from thews, they would be still conscientiously right. As to his Clients, the Assignees, they would be perfectly satisfied with soy order the Court might think proper to makeaur as he before slated, they had no vindictive feeling towards the Petitioner. The SOLICITOR.G replied. The LORD CHANCELLOR olii . ierved, if the only object of the Petitioner was to go before the Commissioners to re-ex amine him, the Petition was unnecessary, for on his being brought up by Habeas Corpus, and Counsel having stated that fact, be would have given his recommendation to the Commissioners to have allowed it. He therefore tad no difficulty is recommending it to the Commissioners to fur ther examine the Petitioner for the purpose of trying to re move their doubts. It was certainly a most painful ease to bins as a Judge, much more so than to other Judges who were is the constant habit of trying penal cases, was he to say, on his judicial oath, that the answers of the Petitioner were satisfactory, when the Commissioners on their judicial oaths had said they were not satisfactory. He was therefore bound to recommit the Petitioner. He would, bri‘-cver, take home the examinations which had taken place before the Commissioners, and read them, and if he should see any thing that ought to make hint alter his then opinion, if the Solicitors on both sides would wait on him on Mon Jay morning at the House of Lords, he would communicate it to them.

Mr. Mauui, io stating the law, said it was no legal of fence fur an individnal to !my away a bill drawn by is man of straw, a person known to poseer.s no Nude; but that if two or more persons combined together lo fabricate and estate bills of that description, with the intentions to rhea' and defraud, it then beranie au of eoce punishable lay the haw; the jet of the offence was oat the issuing of worthless bills, but the conspiring to do it with a fraudulent intent Mr. Maude then proceeded to state the circumstances of the case ; but these, as far as they relate to the female Prisoners, have been so fully laid before the public, that we shall merely remind our readers, that these Indus clinic to heeds early iu February last, and paid a bill to Mr.Thos.

Having thus veiy briefly recapitulated the facts, which have been before detailed to the public, we shall shortly state the evidence as it atlixted the tau male Prison( re. Robert Turner slated, that he was a fustian cutter at Manchester, misil lately kept a public-house there, but which lie gave up from the circuinstanoe of his having had to pay the rent twice ; he was formerly in an eaten sive line of business, but lust all his property by the failure of a large liankiug.house in London ; since then he hal not been possessed of any property. On the 17th October last, witness was ism-minced to the men, Evans and Pyle, at a public house at Manchester, by a person of she name of Fugsn, who represented them as must respectable merchants from Liverpool. Witness was invited to dine with them, and It was nut until stone time after diluter when Fogan asked the witness if he could accommodate them with a few bilk, as they had rather overdrawn their banker's account; hut they were respectable porter-merchants, and would lake care that the bills were duly provided fur alien they became due; witness agreed to this proposal, and ilia/li ed his name to a hill whin was drawn by Pyle. They did not like his hand-writing, other stamps were therefore pro. cored, in which the uatne of the witness was termini by Pyre, he [sassing a dry pest over it afterwards -••2 501. and two 201. bills were drawn in this nissimer. Witness afterwarde saw Pyre and Evans again at Manchester, when they • idled to have a written authority fruit' him to drew bills in bas name, and witness signed a paper which they had 'hewn op.—Mims this paper, which was tumid in the possession of tba male Prisoners, was read, it purported to be an au thority to draw bills, at a date not less than two mouths, fur a suns not eaceeditig 11101.1—Witness said when it was lead to him, he understood it to be mily Mr 9W. Some engraved plates of the house of Josses, Lluy4l, and Co. were wormed by the Prisoner', hut it did not appear in evidence that any use had heeu made of them. Witness, who seemed sensible of the infamy of his conduct ise these tiansactions, endea vuured to palliate it by alleging that be was so much iu li quor as hardly to be conscious algal he was doing. ,lames Pyle, who had taken nutes of the (miaow., and had frequently made observations upon it in the cones.. of the trial, addressed the Jury in brhalfof himself and Whew prisoiters.
