Hol born, some meet, amounting to lour altilliugs, for which he paid the note in question to Mr. Bean's daughter, who knew the Preroorr's father, living its Cromer -street, and indorsed the note with the Pri soner's name, and the address whirl, he gave iu Phoa six-alley, Long-acre, and then gave him the change. About eleven o'clock the same even ing, a 111411, who said his name arta Kemp, purchas ed at the some shop a shonlikr °fount 0000 0 for whirl' he pa pi she young men of the skip • note, whole the nenremt lie was gone, Mr. Beim detected to l e t a forgers,ald scut the young in 111 after Min, who, however, could not overtake him, and who then obvervaall, that the. Prisoner who, durnee the tune Kemp wa. in the shovelled been stimuli .g at the corner of the stieet, only deer doors &remit, ob serving what war done, had also gone sway. Mr. Bean then eaarniued the note which l os d a u g ht er had received front the Prisoner. end discovered that also to be a forgery. A short tune 'firm:ads, the :June night, the Prisoner was observed to pest the shop, by the young in in her ire mentioned, who followed sod asked him to co lie into the shop, for that the note which he kid given fur the meat was n bad one. The Priamer readily ace-outpoured hint, 11111 was token into custody. Throe far the rare - stances were proved by the evidence of Mr. Bean, his daughter, awl the young man who served in the shop. But to place the criminality of intention and the guilty knoaledge of the Prisoner in a stronger hght, the following circumstances were given ist evidence:—lii A t oil Loa a woman, mimed Rosanna Pennington, was tried and convicted of altering forged notes. At the time of he r upper !tension, which took place in the lonise which she had given as heenddress, although. she had assumed mother name at the time of passing a forged note at a shop in the Strand, the ICI-oiler being pre-env, she declared that whatever notes she had uttered she had received from her husband,. puiriting to the Prisoner, who had taken them in the course of his business as a tailor. The Prisoiter confirmed her statement, and was then told by Mayhew, the Bow-street patrol, that he must take him into cus wherenpou he replied, Will von, Sir ? will you, Sir ?" sort prcsented a pocket pistol, which Mayhew wrested trout him and then secured him. The pistol wus ready primed and cocked, and loaded with ball. (Jul the way to the office in Bae-street, the Prisoner promised Mat hew if lie said nothing about the affair of the 0401, to tell him where he could find plenty of Lad notes. The officer however refused the offer, and on searching the Primmer's apartments, fouud close to the spot where lie had seized him a large horse-pistol, ready primed, cocked, and loaded with three balls. For the ssomilt on the officer 'he was committed till the &salon% fur trial; bust, us we uodersloOd, no bill was preferred @garble. him. This part of the case was peeved by Mayhew the patrol, and by. the shopintis where the Prisoner's wife had passed - the note which led to her apprehen sion, and who *as present on that occasion. The Bank Inspectors now proved the three linter mentioned in this eerie, viz. thee paid by the Pri soner to Miss Been, on which. the prevent indee. tnent was founded; that peril by the man centre,: himself Kenai) to Mr. Berer's showman; and that paid by the Prisoner's wife at thee shop of Mr. Ilyains, in the Strand, to be . all forgeries, and im pressions taken from the same plate. The case for the prosecution having thus closed, the Prisoner in his defence put in • wall writteu statement, which woe read by the Clerk of the Arraigns. Its it he represented, that on the dry on which lie paid the rime to Miss Bean, being Satur day, lie had received the note in question Pom his father, in part payment of seine tailor's work which he hart done for him. And he put it to the Jury, for their consideration, whether it was 'probable that he should mare paid • note which he" knew to be forged to a aliopkerper art near Isis Owls lodgings, and that he should also have given his real name and address. Ile elm farther uppealeil to their judgment, us to the likelihood -of his risking life for the value of a one pound note, when he was in the way of earning a comfortable living by his trade; of his venturing to pass by a *hop a here lie hail a few hours before uttered • had not, if con scious of its "ring a forgery ; rod of his willingly accompanying the young mail hack to the shop, on being charged with having given a forged note, when lie could easily have overpowered hnu and escaped. He conjused the Jury to weigh well these circumstances, sod to . pause before they daunted, by their verdict, a young man, a stranger to the °Wetter with which lie we. charged, to be cut off its the prime of life by the sentence of the law. The may witness called by the Pia-oiler was the woman at askew house he lodgethar orio deposed to hi. lodging there nn the day men-- tinned in the indictment, and that his fattier called these on that day to inquire for hat, sod went up stairs to kin, but she was wholly ignorant of what passed between them. Mr. Justice BEST charged the Jury. strongly enforcing on duir attention the cooduct of the Pri soner in the time of passing the note. utid of his ap prehension the same night, us favouring greatly the pie-uraptiott of his innocence ; but he put it to them to say, whether the conduct (Sr the Prisoner in watching while another man the second note at the same shop, and his behaviour on the or-elitism of his wife's apprehen-ion, coupled with the tiacumstuace of all those notes being irnpres pintas from the tante plate, and with his promise to the 'officer of reveirliog where a quantity of fotged notes might be found, were not proofs of his guilty itoimectino with fosgril notes sufficiently strong to hear down any favourable inference which might be drawn from his demeanour at the time of uttering tile note charged in the indictment. The Jury retired, and while they were out. the Pritiotter nodded familiarly and unrestrainedly to several persons whom lie recognised in the hotly of the Court, some of whom, after a little time, drew near to the duck, rod joined in conversation with tile Prisoner, who chatted and laughed with s t dr.
