HOLLAND. The First Chamber held a secret sitting, with closed doors, on the 3d, and decided that the debates o❑ the subject of the treaty of commerce with Belgium, held in general committee, shall not be made public.— Amsterdam Courant, March 7. RUSSIA. The works of the railway from St. Petersburgh to Warsaw are being carried on with extraordinary activity. The number of workmen at present exceeds 10,000, and they work during part of the night. All the rails necessary for the immense line are to be de livered by the end of July, and the contracts for the supply of locomotives have just been signed. LITERARY .FORGERIES. (From the Athenteure.) The" Shelley Letters," published by Mr. Menton, and reviewed in our paper a fortnight since, are, it turns out, with but one or two exceptions, forgeries. It is proper to say at once that Mr. Meson has been deceived, and that no gentleman from the moment of the discovery could have acted more straightforwardly and promptly than he has done in this transaction. As soon as he was eonvinced that he had been the means (the innocent means) of giving to the public a false article, he did his best to repair his mistake. He has suppressed the book, and has called in the copies delivered to the trade. The discovery was made in quite an accidental manner. Mr. Moxon had sent a copy of the book to Mr. Tenny son. During a visit which Mr. Palgrave was paying to Mr. Tennyson he dipped into the Shelley volume, and lighted on a letter written from Florence to Godwin —the better half of which he at once recognised as part of an article on Florence written fur the Quar terly Review so far back as 1840 by his father, Sir Francis Palgrave. It is good to find a son so well versed in the writing of his father as young Mr. Pal graye proved himself to be on this occasion. He lost no time, as we may suppoae e . in communicating his curious discovery t to his father, and Sir Francis, after comparing the printed letter with the printed article, wrote at once to Mr. Moxon, informing him that the letter—by whomsoever written—was a "crib" from an l i article which he had written for the Quarterly Review. Startled at such intelligence, Mr. Moxon replied that he had bought the letter at a public sale among other letters also by Shelley, and that the passage of which Sir Francis claimed the authorship was contained in a let ter written by Shelley, carrying upon it the post-mark of the period and other written signs which apparently marked it to be genuine. The Deputy-Keeper of the Public Records was, it may be readily imagined, equally startled with Mr. Moxon at the announcement ot such a fact. He wanted to see the letter. The letter was produced. "It looks genuine; is it not genuine?" "I am the author of that passage, but not the writer of that letter," was the reply o: Sir Francis. "But may not Sir Francis," it was urged to Mr. Moxon, " have seen this letter in the noble collection of autographs be longing to his father-in-law, Mr. Dawson Turner?" a question which only added a fresh difficulty to the solu tion sought. In this emergency Mr. Moxon had recourse to the assistance of a gentleman known to be conversant with autographs. The letters were placed in his hands with a request that he would spare no pains to ascertain the truth about them—and with this information to guide him—that they had been shown to some Post-office clerks at the General Post-office, who " to toe best of their belief," pronounced them to be genuine. The floret step taken after this was to compare the post-marks with Byron's letters to Mr. Murray, posted from the same cities in the same mouth and year, and to the same city—London. Here they failed, and in this way. Where " Ravenna" on a genuine letter was in a small sharp type—in the Shelley letter it was in a large uncertain type; and in the letters from Venice the post mark of the City of Palaces was stamped in an Italic, and not, as in the Shelley specimens, in a Roman letter! These were strong fact .; but then the dates agreed with Shelley'e sojourn as the several places—the seals were cerrect. The handwriting was marvellously Shelley iike—no hesitation abeut it—a free accustomed hand. " Are they not senuine?" Fron whom cid Mn Maxon buy these letters? They were bought at Sotheby leo Wilknescn's, at largo prices. From whom did Messrs. Sotheby and Wilkinson receive them for tale? "We had them from Mr. White, the bookseller in Paii-mell, over against the Reform Club." Off runs the gentleatau-detective. " From whom did you, Mr. White, obtein these letters?" I bought them of two women—l believed them to be genuine, and I paid large prices for them in that belief." Such are the words supposed to have been spoken by Mr. White. The two women would appear to have been like the man in a clergyman's band, but a lawyer's gown, who brought Pope's letter to Curl!. It would be impolitic at this stage of an important in quiry to publish the whole of the particulars placed at our service in elucidating the forgeries of the letters. It is proper, however, to say thin) early that there has been of late years, as we are assured, a most systematic and wholesale forgery ot letters purporting to be written by Byron, Shelley, and Kests—that these forgeries cam upon them such marks of genuineness as have deceived the entire body of London collectors—that they are executed with a skill to which the forgeries of Chat terton and Ireland can lay no claim—that they have sold at public auctions mei by the hands of booksellers, to collectors of experience and rank, and that the imposi tion has extended to a large collection of books bearing not only the signature of Lord Byron, but notes by him in many of their pages, the matter of the letters being selected with a thorough knowledge of Byron's life and feelings, and the whoe of the books chosea with the minutest knowledge of his tastes and peculiarities. But the " marvel" of the forgery is not yet told. At the same sale at which Mr. Moxon bought the Shelley letters were catalogued for sale a series of (unpublished) letters from Shelley to his wife, revealing the innermost secrets of his heart, and containing facts, not wholly dishonourable facts to a father's memory, but such as a son would wish to conceal.. These letters were bought in by the son of Shelley, the present Sir Percy Shelley —and are now proved, we are told, to be forgeries. To impose on the credulity of a collector-is a minor offence, compared with the crime of forging evidence against the dead, and still minor as in one instance against the fidelity of a womee. The forgery ot Chattortun injured no one but an ima ginary priest—the forgery of Ireland made a great poet seem to write worse than Settle could have written — but this forgery blackens the character of a great man, and worse still, traduces female virtue. Mr. Moxon is not the only publisher taken in. Mr. Murray has been a heavy sufferer, though not to the same except. Mr. Moxon has printed his Shelley pur chases; Mr. Murray—wise through Mr. Moxon's ex ample—will not publish his Byron acquieitions.

The only correct test of the proper rate of 'eterest on the discounts of a national bank is the price of the public funds and the common rate of private discount. With the Five per Cents. in Paris at 106, and the common rate of discount at 4 or 3i, we can only regard the sudden lowering of the rate of interest from 4 to 3 by the Bank of France as an arbitrary attempt on the part of the Government to lower the value of money to an artificial standard, and to evade the natural laws of trade. It would obviously be a more advantageous mea sure on the part of the Bank to invest its superabundant capital in the purchase of Three per Cent. Rentes at 70, than to discount paper and to extend its advances to the State at 3 per cent. at par, and we are at a loss to un derstand how the Bank can lend money at 3 per cent. which may now be invested in the public funds at a little below 5. This part of the agreement is not, however, its greatest or its most irremediable innovation. A wider departure from sound principles and from the existing regulations of the Bank of France is the proposal to enable that in stitution to make advances on railroad securities, as it has hitherto done on funded securities and first-class private bills only. We know, by the experience of this country that railroad property—even of the best kind—partakes to an alarming extent of all the variations ,of commercial enterprises and speculations. The same motives that deter a national banking estab lishment, on which, as in France, the public credit and the private transactions of the nation may be said to depend, from embarking in industrial speculations, have hitherto opposed all advances on such securities; and, even in this country, they have only been admitted under strict limitations. The object of the Govern ment in encouraging the Bank of France to assist these speculations is to promote the construction of the principal lines of railway, and to facilitate the transac tions of the railway market. But that object is un doubtedly one of secondary importance in comparison with the interests the Bank has constantly to protect, especially in 'a country like France, where no man can say that three months will not witness some political and financial crisis. At such a moment, if the available re sources of the Bank are sunk in deferred loans to the State, or lent out on railway securities, that may become unsaleable at any price, it is evident that a suspen sion of cash payments might again be the result ; and the effort to give an artificial impulse to trade would recoil on the establishment at the cost of which it is made. The only solid foundation on which the commer cial interests of France can be restored to healthy acti vity is that Confidence which is far more deficient than capital; and confidence can only spring from reliance on the good sense and moderation of the Govern ment. It is destroyed by a series of fantastic and capricious decrees anticipating the duties of the Legislature, some of which have already attacked the rights of property, while others threaten to overturn the first principles of taxation. To facilitate the advance of money at low interest, with no corresponding increase of confidence and security, is merely to encourage men to gamble and to speculate; and measures which might be laudable in a highly flourishing state of society be come questionable when they are employed to disguise the stagnation of trade, or to compensate the losses caused by a recent revolution.—Times. MARKET INTELLIGENCE. (From the London New Price Current, March 9.) SUGAR.—To-day West India Sugar was operated in with reluctance for home consumption, and in some cases the rates taken for refining as well as grocery sorts were rather under those of Friday.

DE BEAUVOIR-CONSTRUCTION or WILL-JUDGMENT. In this case, Mr. Hour having concluded his reply, The LORD CHANCELLOR was understood to say that the House entertained no doubt as to the construction of the will, and that the judgment of the Court below ought to be affirmed; but his Lordship spoke so low that only a few unconnected sentences reached us. Lord BROIIGHAM said he agree d w i t h hi s N o bl e an d Learned Friend that no doubt could be entertained with respect to the reasonable co ns t ruct i on o f th i s w ill . If their Lordships had entertained any serious doubt they should in all probability have taken time to consider the question, and have reverted to the practice which had been followed for the last twenty years of giving judg ment in writing. As there was no reasonable doubt the proper course would be for the H ouse at onee to proceed to affirm the judgment of the Court below. The only doubt he entertained was on the second part of the case, with regard of the conversion. The part in which he differed most from the judgment in the Court below was as to the use of the word " premises" in the will. Now, what was the meaning of the word, where some of the property was leasehold, some copy hold, and some personal? It was impossible that it could be used with respect to anything but the real estate. The words wero "I do hereby give and devise, after my just debts and funeral expenses and legacies are paid (which I order to be paid out of my personal estate) all my estates in the funds of England, and all my said manors or reputed manors, messuages, lands, tenements, tithes, rents, hereditament, and premises, both freehold, leasehold, and copyhold, and what other kind and nature soever." It was quite clear that the testator paused at the end of the description of the personal property, " all my estates in the funds of England," where he used the words " and all my said manors," &c. His Lordship then contrasted this with the subsequent us© of the word," Provided always, and it shall and may be lawful, to and for the several persons, when and as they shall respectively become tenants in possession of the said manors, messuages, lands, tenements, tithes, rents, he reditaments, and premises, to them respectively limited as aforesaid," &c. It was therefore evident what was meant by the word, and on that ground he doubted the correctness of the judgment below. But, quite inde pendent of that question, it was quite clear that, on the main question at issue, no doubt could be enter tained by this House, and that the decision should be affirmed. The order below was therefore affirmed; but, as we understood the Lord Chancellor, in putting the question, without costs. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. HOME ClRCUlT,—Maidstone, March 9. The commission for the county of Kent was opened on Monday. The gaol calendar, in consequence of no intermediate quarter session being held in the county is heavy, there being 128 prisoners for trial. Most of the cases, how ever, are of an ordinary description. On the Civil Side 30 causes are entered, but several of them are cross in dictments, in which Lord Ranelagh and the officers of the South-Eastern Railway Company and some of the officers of the metropolitan police are parties, arising out of a disturbance that took place at the Greenwich Railway terminus some time back. Bills for assault and perjury were subsequently found at the Central Criminal Court, and the cases are now sent down here for trial. CROWN COURT.—(Before Mr. Justice COLERIDGE.) Jambs Austen,' 42, shoemaker, and Robert Lambert, 23, landlord of the Chequers public-house at Biddenden, were indicted for a misdemeanour in having unlawfully uttered counterfeit coin. Mr. Deedes and Mr. Dawson conducted the prosecu tion; Mr. 131111antine and Mr. Rebton defended Lambert; and Mr. Charnock was counsel for the other defendant. The jury found the defendants Guilty, but recom mended Lambert to mercy, upon the ground that they believed he had been partly led into the commission of tho offence by the other prisoner. Mr. Justice COLERIDGE sentenced Austen to be kept to hard labour for to elve, and Lambert for nine months. KORFOLK ClRCUlT—Huntingdon, March 0. Lord Campbell opened the commission for this county yesterday afternoon. We regret to say that Mr. Justice Crompton has been obliged to return to town in consequence of indis- position. His Lordship, on joining the circuit at Aylesbury, appeared to be suffering greatly; and as his illness did not abate, but rather increased in intensity at Bedford, the Learned Judge was advised to abstain for the present from his public duties. It is not expected that his Lordship will be able to rejoin the circuit before Norwich. In the meantime, as far as the business for this county is concerned—where, though there is a heavy calendar, there are but two civil causes—Mr. Prendergast and Mr. O'Malley will, if necessary, lend their valuable assistance to the Chief Justice. CROWN COURT.—(Before Lord CAMPBELL.) Edward Spencer, 36, was charged with burglariously entering the house of Sarah Moyres, of Holme, on the 18th of May last. It appeared that the prosecutrix and her servant on that day went of town, leaving the house in charge of a neighbour, who, however, did not sleep upon the premises. About two o'clock, as a man was going fishing, he saw the prisoner lease Mrs. Moyres' house and dart into a neighbouring spiney. An alarm was given, and the house was found to have been tho roughly ransacked. A cash-box and various articles of furniture wore found to have been stolen; but as Mrs. Moyres had taken the precaution to empty her cash-box before she left, the prisoner in disgust threw his ill gotten booty away, and escaped justice until December last, when he was taken into custody. Guilty—Ten years' transportation. Mr. Worlledge for the prosecution; Mr. Metcalfe for the defence. A RESPECTABLE WITNESS.-- William Laxton, 39, was a sheep, th e property o f Willi am charged with stealing Knighton, of Stilton. Mr. Burcham for the prosecution; Mr. Power for the defence. John Hall proved that ono day, about two years ago, he and the prisoner stole a sheep from a field at Yaxley. They killed it, cut it up, and carried off the legs and shoulders, which they divided. Cross-examined by Mr. POWER_I am a prisoner, on charge of burglary. lam a witness in several other cases against prisoners. lam charged in Mr. Fairley's burglary, also with a fire. I was taken at Nottingham on Mr. Fairley's affair, and when I had been in prison about a month, I confessed to many things, thinking it better to empty my mind to make room for something better. Mr. POWER—How:many crimes have you acknowledged to? Witness-,-Am I obliged to answer? JUDGE—Oh, make a clean breast of it. Witness—l have told you of two or three cases. Mr. PowER—I want to hear of some more. Witness —Well, four more. Mr. POWER—What were they? Witness—Two bur glaries and two highway robberies. Mr. POWER—When were they committed? Witness —ln 1851 and 1852. Mr. POWER—How many more burglaries do you ac knowledge to? Witness—l shan't tell you. JUDGE—Don't press it, Mr. Power. Mr. POWER—Are you married? Witness—No; I live with a married woman, who left her husband and came tome. Mr. POWER—He was dying? Witness—He was very ill. The JUDGE —Gentlemen of the jury, there is no cor roboration in this witness's evidence. Ile is evidently one of the basest of mankind. Verdict—Not Guilty. OXFORD ClRCUl7.—Worceoter, March 8. CROWN COURT.—(Before Mr. Justice WIGLITMAN.) John Shephard, 21, Francis Compton, 20, labourers, and Rueben Brant, 18, and George Groves, 17, boatmen, were indicted for a rape, under circumstances of no common atrocity, on Mary Ann Harris Williams, on the night of the 29th of November last, at the parish of St. Andrew, a little distance outside the town of Pershore. Mr. belie appeared for the prosecution, and Mr. Huddleston for the defence. The jury found Shepherd Guilty as principal, and Compton as accessory in assisting him; and acquitted the other two; an exercise of discrimination with which his Lordship declared himself satisfied. Shepherd and Compton were sentenced to 18 years' transportation. There was another indictment against the four pri soners for the assault on Cooke, but SELFE said that as he thought justice had been satisfied by the v er di c t just pronounced, and t ho would Compton chiefly who b e at and kicked Cooke, offer no evidence, and thereupon Brant and Groves were acquitted and discharged.

CROWN COURT.—(Before Lord Claret Justice , . Jsavxs.) George Bourshill, aged 34, Samuel Simms, 38, George Dunlop, 31, and John Moaks, 21, were indicted for the ‘vilttit murder of William Roberts . George Robinso n and James Alvey had been incl u d e d and M ea r n . t W m . il il le . r A de d f a e m nd s e e d on s tet tne d s in the .charge, but as to them the bill was ignored. Mr. Wilmer°, q.C.? the pros( , ,eurion• Mr. Sorg and Moaks, And Mr. O'Brien the other prisoners. This case arose out of a frightful affray, which took place on the night of the 13th of Octob er last, between the gam ekeepers of Lord Scarborough and a large party of poachers, in the course of which Roberts (one of the keepers) was 90 severely 17th of October, ho died. injured th a t, on t h e Th e Learned JUDGE, in summing up, intima'ed to the jury that in his opinion the evidenc e wou ld h ar dl y warrant them in fi n di ng the prisoners guilty of murder;y but ho left to them and the question of identity, also desired them t o consider wh e th er the prisoners, having originally gone out for the purpose of taking game, had i i aliandoned that intention h before the acts of violence were committed whit. caused the death of Roberts, with a view to theirthquesti. whether the prisoners could ar , alt justify conduct on the ground of self- i defence. ' The jury having retired and remained in deliberation a considerable time, found all the prisoners Guilty of manslaughter. Judgment was respited in order that the opinion of the Judges might be taken upon a point of law raised during the trial. The prisoners were also arraigned upon an indictment Charging them with the misdemeanour of night poach ing; and having Pleaded Guilty, were sentenced to trans portation for fourteen years. (Before Mr. Justice 'WAVLE.) I,;nu Lae nid4;sl.au t il,v. '.Nylcr, the kLeker of a passenger truin on the saran railway. Mr. Partridge appeared for the prosecution; Mr. Sharer defended the prisoner. It appeared that on the 10th Sept. last the prisoner started from the Nottingham station at half-past six in the morning with a goods train for Mansfield, stopping at a short distance from the Lenten points to take up some empty carriages. He was delayed there much longer than usual, partly in consequence of the absence of a fellow-servant, whose duty it was to assist him in taking up the carriages. Before he started with his train, the passenger train became due, and a pointsman on the line warned the prisoner of that fact, and told him to go back on the line and signal it to stop; or to place the fog signals on the rails at a sufficient distance to give the passenger train notice of the obstruction. The prisoner omitted to do this, and a collision took place, which caused the death of John Taylor, who was stoker of the pass, nger train. It was urged in the pri soner's defence that he should not be held accountable for a mere error of judgment, and that unless he was guilty of gross negligence he was entitled to an ac quittal. The jury, after some deliberation, found the prisoner Guilty, and he was sentenced to four months' imprison ment with hard labour. Mr. Macaulay, Q.C., was engaged during the day in trying the town prisoners. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS, March 9. (Before Mr. Sergeant ADAMS, Assistant Judge, and a Bench of Magistrates.) Maria William, , 19, was charged with stealing a purse, four Bank of England notes, for the payment and of the value of 101. each, and the sum of 5/. in gold monies, the property and monies of Frederick Charles Dusantoy. Mr. Sleigh defended the prisoner. The prosecutor is a purser in the royal navy, and had come up from Portsmouth to see London. On the night of the 29th of February he met the prisoner and ano ther woman in the Strand, and accompanied them to a house near Wellington-street, where he stayed for the night. On getting up in the morning the money named in the indictment had been taken from his coat pocket. On the following morning he gave both women into custody, but did not appear against them. On this day the prisoner handed to her landlord a 101. note, request ing him to take 31. for rent due to him, and give her the change. On the evening his wife produced three 101 notes, which she said she had received from the prisoner, and asked him to go to the Bank of England and get change for them. On his arrival there the notes were detained, and from information obtained from him the prisoner was given into custody for stealing the notes. It was proved that the four notes produced, being con secutive numbers, were paid by Messrs. Ornmanney and Co., of Charing-cross, to the prosecutor. After some sharp remarks between Mr. Sleigh and the Learned Judge, The jury found the prisoner Guilty, and she was sen tenced to hard labour for six months. SECOND COURT. (Before Mr. WITHAM, Deputy-Assistant Judge.) Catherine Eleanor Sloman, 18, was indicted for stealing the sum of 1/. 17s. 6d., and a handkerchief, the property and monies of Elizabeth Amelia Bellmore, from her person. The jury found her Guilty, and she was sentenced to imprisonment, with herd labour, fur six calendar months. Jane Holland, 30, was indicted for having stolen twenty-six dishes, the property of Abraham Davis, an earthenware dealer, of Tottenham-court - road. The case was very clearly proved, and the prisoner was found Guilty. Being an old effendi r, The DEPUTY-ASSISTANT JUDGE sentenced the pri soner to be kept to hard labour for twelve calendar months, and added," If you come here again, most likely you will bo transported." The prisoner—Transport me! Oh, I dare say you'l do great things. Transport me, indeed! She was then removed to the cell. POLICE IN TELLIGEN CE. MANSION HOUSE. Two women, named Martha Smith and Mary Jones, were charged with having robbed a man at 12 o'clock at night in Aldgute. The prisoners, who have been long known as hawkers of fruit about the Royal Exchange, pretended to be drunk, and one of them pretended to support herself from falling by catching the prosecutor by the arms and holdinc him fast, while the other slipped her baud into his pockets and took out h is money. They contrived to escape at the moment, but were afterwards apprehended, each of them having half of the property of which the w W ere h t e a n he t n he int p o r c o u se s e to u d to y r , prosecutor had beenust before plutidetrheedy. addressed them, j they restored to him the halfpence they had taken, but although one of them advised her comrade to give him up the whole and escape imprisonment and disgrace, the proposal was refused, and the chance of impunity was risked for a few shillings. The LORD MAYOR sentenced each of the prisoners to be imprisoned and kept to hard labour for three months. The LORD MAYOR requested that the press would ac knowledge the receipt of ss. in postage stamps from E. B. for the foreigner named Ringens, who some time ago attempted, as it was affirmed, to destroy himself with an egg-shell stuffed with gunpowder. Ili E,S TIIHN STE H. George Shirley, a thin sickly-looking lad, 16 years of age, described as a costormonger, was charged with having caused the death of Ann Deddell, a woman with whom his father cohabited, at 1, Vincent-court, Vin cent-street, Westminster. It appeared from the statement of Elizabeth Perry, an intelligent child, twelve years old, that she was at the house of tho aceused's father, when the former came ' in, between four and five o'clock last Sunday afternoon. A violent altercation arose between the young man and the deceased, about a penny, in the coarse of which the ' latter used very improper language, and struck him in the face. She then took up a knife and threatened to throw it at him, and the prisoner then seized the poker, and declared that he would strike her with it if she touched him again. The little girl at that moment lett the room, and immediately afterwards the prisoner ' rushed out of the house, followed by the deceased, who ' was bleeding from a wound in the head, but who threw a poker and old shovel towards him, and vowed ven ' geance if she caught him. He, however, escaped, and she went to the Westminster Hospital, where her head ' was dressed, and she then returned home. Sergeant Buchannan, 8 B, produced the following certificate: — " Westminster Hospital, March 9. " This is to certify that Ann Shirley was admitted into this Hospital on Monday morning, suffering from the effects of a blow on the head, and that she has since ' died of the same. " GEORGE BUTTON HATFORD, House-surgeon." ' Sergeant Buchanan. upon receiving information of the fatal result from the hospital, immediately apprehended ' the accused at his father's abode, when prisoner said he sad had a quarrel with the deceased about a penny, which she accused him of having taken, and admitted that he struck her on the head with the poker. The prisoner was remanded for a week, WORSHIP-STREET. Jean Jerome Breque, a well-dressed Frenchman, was placed at the bar before Mr. Tyrwhitt, charged with having obtained, by means of a forged order, from a banker at Rouen, in Normandy, the sum of 42/. 10s., with intent to defraud his late employer, Mr. Jacob Schweizer, a varnish manufacturer, in Poole-street, Hoxton. The prosecutor stated that the prisoner had for a con siderable period in his service in the ca p acit y of travel ler and collecting clerk, but he found it necessary to dis charge him for misconduct in the month of Jania,ry last. communicate About a m on o t m i th a t t b: r f a b r o o f that business event t to e t wihoaedonfloy:icsaus _lO7- r freo s hi pon h d o r m nt e s , ir l i ie Fr a a t n ta e c e i , m b d ut h h is ay s in i blank risoner, with sheets of paper which he entrusted to theto his intentions, instructions to fill them u and to forward them by ost t , P pursuanttheir alestinations the c alled the autographs the pri ggnahetuerneBot'Od tw o with which Same eveningse-: On yon he was capable of availing eat euspicion at the ttm© thaturpose, witness left them with s9ner I r e m m i a g r h k t e e d a , silY T . himself of them for that purpose, assured by the him, 1, , ,nd was subsequently about a month that t i n a t i l oi ne b e la bad h fi is lled rh t o t u e h bs e h i handing-him: ) directions. prisoner d r u r a p c n : t g o: o l e : n e r :r s a. l ' lu y d vs , i I T g a ha ndet things,dhe efiarps prisoner fisted r ai un :them off according ommunication obtained that th e signatures.e re occurred ceive_d a communication from after his diem when M.
