(' '' 'Ne:Trill, \Q* is VIIIIIS litt's LONDON, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 23, 1846, Every additional fragment of information received from the Peninsula is a fresh evidence of the advisa bility of candour in the proceedings of a Govern ment. The . .jutense secresy maintained throughout the correspondence anterior to the announcement of the Spanish marriages —the midnight interview be tween the youthful SOVEREIGN and her Ministers— the weeping acquiescence which is said to have been ultimately extorted from ISABELLA—the precipitate manner in which the ceremonies are being hastened towards their consummation ;—these and a thousand subordinate circumstances demonstrate that the pro jected alliances were schemed in mystery and are being hurried forward without due premeditation. This ungenerous policy has already shown itselfreplete with embarrassments. It has jeopardised the Admi nistration, the power of which it was intended to consolidate ; it has placed in a most questionable and delicate predicament the foreign Princ© whose dignity and happiness it was intended to aggrandise. tTea- AiDoeliiiiii haVe l Zen excited i n hi t h erto friendly Cabinets cr,. wthese_zber4t-sighted machinations. A noble and , ,;'-. `beneficent confidence has been betrayed. The pas g..-fltti ns a th e Spnish multitude, awed into sobriety by 'be eertairi,ncv of independent vigour which had \ l 4i . ' -- '• t _ latt e rly charsetayrised their Government, and lulled into , , ~_.. security- by tie apparent absence of foreign donaina the wanton exercise . :tiokhavetteen again armed by THE SUN, LONDON, WEDNE§n.A.Y EVENING, SEPTEMBER 25, 1846. of a hateful authority. Nevertheless, the deceitful ness so remarkable ill recent diplomacy threatens to be principally prod.active of calamities to those whose interests it was -alone intended to advance. Dis simulatio errores peril, qui dissimulatorem ipsum illagueant. Nla more brilliant testimony could be de sired of the misfortunes which are certain to accrue to a s°,4te or an individual from a selfish disregard of the advantages of other states or of other individuals. That the intended espousal of the Infanta LUISA FERNANDA and the Duc DE MONTPENSIER has con duced to the embarrassment, instead of the perma nent organisation, of Spanish affairs, and has tended to the diminution, instead of the extension, of French influence, almost every particular circumstance that has transpired since its announcement has demon strated. Plostile sentiments have been germi nated throughout every section of Spanish so ciety. Petitions have thronged in from the pro vinces praying for the rejection of the Orleans suitor. With only three exceptions—the Imparcial, the Herald°, an'd the Popular --the Madrid journals have inveighed against the alliance in terms so virulent and decisive us to incite the trembling officials to cause their suppression. Even the French postilions and navigators on the rail ways are assailed by the enraged population, de rided as gabachos, and treated with every indignity short of corporeal punishment. The Ministerial enunciation by Senor Isrunrrz is greeted in the Congress with groans and hisses, which are only suppressed by the ringing of the President's bell. Beyond all these significant evidences of the foolish celerity with whi c h th e o b nox i ous scheme- has been concocted, and of the indignation which its un generous secresy has aroused, we possess others of greater consequence. Not merely does the English Ambassador, Mr. HENRY LYTTON 13uLwEa, protest against the projected alliance on his own responsi bility and this because he recognised the pro bability of its ultimately disarranging the ba lance of the European powers—but his behaviour receives the erapl:iatic approbation of his own Govern ment. Beyoild this, again, a formal protest against the marrlage (published by us in this day's impres sion) is forwarded to the Cortes by no less interested a perso-aage than one of the Spanish Princes, Don ENIVAQUE. " What belongs to me by right," says t'n'is young Bourbon, "and that which I shall at tempt to do, influenced less by family views and in terests than by the desire to avoid the possibility of difficult questions, and perhaps even wars of succes sion, which have been so fatal to Spain, is to protest against all eventual right to the Crown which may be granted to the children of the Duke of MONTPEN HER, if he should ever be united to the INFANTA." Upon constitutional principles, therefore, a member of the reigning Royal Family of Spain protests against that union. On constitutional principles the vast bulk of the people of Spain protest against it like wise ; and upon the fundamental principles of inter national legislation, as well as upon the express stipula tions of the renowned treaty between " the most serene and most mighty Princess ArNE, Queen of Great Britain, and the most serene and most mighty Prince PHILir V., Catholic King of Spain," the representa tive of the former empire at Madrid protests against that same marriage. Precisely at this critical juncture the Carlist leader and the Carlist general escape from sur veillance, and threaten to appeal to the popu lation of the Peninsula a population already prepared for any amount of turbulence, and fitted for any number of insurrections. At a moment when the hatred for the gabachos is so violent and universal, any banner would be acceptable so long as it was inimical to the abhorred foreigners. 'While we behold the continental Powers thus trembling on the verge of commotion, and see not merely Cabinets but communities ready to be embroiled with each other, it is a satisfac tion to think that England has throughout kept aloof from the subject of contention, that her dignity has been maintained, her rights of interference have not been questioned, her honourable candour has not been impeached even by a momentary suspicion, and that thus the unselfishness of her recent protest has been strikingly manifested. What, however, may not be the futurity reserved for the Peninsula! fler population is placed be tween an embarrassing and momentous alterna tive. Is Spain to become really degraded into the mere province of some unkindred empire ? Is she to be again desolated by the stormy throes and agonies of civil war ? Are the children of FERDI NAND to be continued on the throne to perpetuity, or what novel phase is her history to develop ? The solution of this problem is within the grasp of the Spanish people--they may prove themselves suited to the occasion, and not unworthy of their progenitors. One of the highest compliments that can be offered to a public man has recently been paid to Mr. Ser geant MURPHY, on the occasion of his annual visit to his native city. It must, indeed, have been extremely gratifying to that honourable and learned gentle man to find that at the first moment of his return, after having relinquished his proud position as their representative, the citizens of Cork, of all classes and varieties of political feeling, should have assembled toge ther to do honour to their late member, to afford the strongest testimony that could emanate from any constituency of their entire approbation of the course pursued by their distinguished guest, not only while he continued a member of the Legislature, brit since he had retired into private life, and applied himself to the important and arduous duties of his profes sion. What a contrast did the meeting afford to those which have recently taken place in this country, where the dirge . of protection has been chanted, and gloomy prophecies for the future have been uttered, mingled only 'with the most virulent and personal abuse of the wise and sagacious statesman through whose disinterested ex ertions the glorious doctrines of free trade received the legislative sanction, and became part and parcel of the law of the land. "On the present o(!casion all ranks, all classes, all creeds, all parties, wc:re re presented; and mingled together in unity and ha rmony, were to be seen the ultra-Tory, the uncompromising Repealer, the honest Whig, and the unflinchiz ig Radi cal. No petty difference existed, no narrow distinc tion was suffered to interpose." So says our re spected Contemporary, from whose columns we ex tracted an account of the banquet. How gratifying it is to record the proceedings of such an ass( !mblage, An oasis in the desert, a green spot where i io party , feeling, no political animosity was suffered to intrude, or to mar the festivity of the evening, wbei .e Irish man united with his brother Irishman in fi •iendship and kindliness of feeling; and the only con test was, which could exhibit the greatest respect, s .nd most cordial friendship for the man of whose corn luct they were anxious to express their admiration. The entertainment was presided over by • the pre decessor of Sergeant MURPIIY in the reprQsentation of Cork—a gentleman whose high character, sound political principles, and unblemished comr nerc;ial inte grity, combined with an untiring and devoted zetsl for the interests of his country, the welfare anet prosperity of her people, have gained the esteem and regard of all who are so fortunate as to possess his acquaintance. Associated with him as vice-presidents -were four gentlemen, two of whom were members o f the old corporation, where strong Conservatives c ould only hope for admission, and each of the others were members of the different sections of the; Liberal party. In a party so constituted it was delightful to witness the cordial unanimity with which the desire and hope of the President, " that they might again see Sergeant MURPHY filling the; proud position he had once occupied," was received and acknowledged. It must have been a moment of un alloyed delight, of unmingled happiness, to the Learned Sergeant, when he heard ringing around him the enthusiastic cheering with which the aspira tion was responded to, and sincerely do we hope that ere long it may be fully realised, his honest ambition gratified, and that he may reap the reward of his struggles and labours. The position of Sergeant MURPHY was, indeed, as he truly said, a peculiar one, and no less honourable to him than it was peculiar. From his earliest boyhood he gave the most evident proof of the talent and ability apparent throughout his entire career, of his powers of con ciliating the friendship, of winning the admiration of men of all shades of political feeling. From the time of his entrance into the Irish university he never missed an examination, and never failed in obtaining the highetit elsolical honours on every occasiou, uutil he terminated his collegiate career by securing the classical gold medal—the greatest distinction to which his religious opinions permitted him to aspire. During all that period, and throughout his entire unrler graduate career, FRANK MURPHY, as he was, inva riably called, was probably the most populp,e student of the time; his joyous disposition, his kindness of heart, his extraordinary talent, made him the life and soul of every convivial meet ing, and insured the hilarity, the enjoyment of every assemblage of which he formed a part. It was the wonder of many - ,oho did not thoroughly know him hew he wr,s always so well versed in his collegiate business,_so perfectly master of all its details ; but thrJse who knew him intimately :were aware that thxl), as all through his subsequent career, although'onegayest of the gay, he never suffered businer.s to remain neglected, but always faithfully ter:jai-stied all that was required at his hands. Ile had at first intended that Ireland should be the scene of his professional labours, and was accordingly called to the Irish bar shortly after he attained his majority ; he, however, abandoned that intention, and left the country, where he had influential friends and relatives, who must have ensured his success even were he possessed of less powers than those with which he was gifted ; and, with a just reliance on his own abilities and industry, he came to this country, convinced that he would ultimately attain the posi tion and the distinction which in England is ever awarded to genuine merit, talent, perseverance, and assiduity. In that opinion he was not mistaken ; his rapid progress in his profession, the eminence he attained therein, attested the accuracy of his judg ment. We have reason to know that one of the chief reasons by which he was actuated in coming to this resolution was, that he might not interfere in any the slightest degree with the prospects of a near relative, who has recently deservedly obtained one of the highest legal situations in Ireland, and so divide the interest of a family which had ever been most closely united, and which, by that union and the rare qualities they exhibited, had gained large fortunes for themselves, and attained the foremost ' position amongst the mercantile men of their own commercial city. Well might Sergeant Muarur say that "he was vouched for his sincerity and rectitude, guaranteed by the integrity of those who had lived long amongst them, whose merits were known and appreciated ;" for no family have ever gained, or more invariably preserved, the good opinion and respect of their fellow citizens than that of which he is a distinguished member. In 1841 he was invited to come forward as a candidate for the suffrages of the people of Cork, and by a large majority placed at the head of the poll. His Parliamentary career is well known : a consistent and honest politician, he ever gave his support to liberal measures, and he not only discharged with ability and upright zeal the duties intrusted to his care, but at tended to the interests of all classes without reference to political feelings. The advice, the assistance of Sergeant MURPHY was never withheld even from his strongest opponent, and we have known instances in which it has been afforded even since his retiring from the Senate, in a manner the most creditable to his head and heart. It would be impossible to attempt even a sketch of the eloquent speech in which he returned thanks for the compliment paid to him. It must be read to be duly appreciated. The occasion was not a political one, at least all topics that might have excited discus sion were to be avoided ; but there was ground on which he could safely, and did most happily, expa tiate—that of their common country, for the benefit of which all would gladly join, and which is looked to and regarded as the knitting bond of unity amongst Irishmen. His allusions to the progress and success of the measures of free trade also showed that he was aware there was no differerce of feeling on that im portant subject. Sincerely do we congratulate Ser geant MURPHY on the tribute he has received, and the citizens of Cork on an exhibition which, collec tively and individually, redounds to their mutual honour. The German Diet at Frankfort came on the 17th to a resolution on the subject of the Holstein and Schleswig question, by which, while it reserves the future competency and right of Germany, it refuses in any manner to prejudge the question of the succes sion to Holstein. The King of DENMARK left Schleswig on the 12th, for Rendsburg, where he delivered a stern address to the officers quartered there, desiring them to maintain the strictest discipline at this period of political agita tion. His MAJESTY particularly exhorted the older officers to do all in their power to rectify any erro • neous political notions that might be entertained by their juniors. He also recommended the new Regency to administer the Duchy in the true spirit of his MAJESTY'S ideas. After visiting several of the public establishments, he gave private audiences. Count REVENTLOW has been appointed Chief President of the City of Altona. The Queen of DENMARK arrived at Kiel on the 15th. Her MAJESTY was received at the gates by the burgomaster, the municipal council, and a depu tation of the university. The burgomaster, in his address to the QUEEN, entreated her to use her me diation between the KING and the people, in order to put an end to all existing differences. Her MAJESTY replied in the most gracious manner, expressing a conviction that in a short time all the differences would be at an end. The QUEEN then proceeded to the village of Garden ; whilst there the coachman of Count BLUCHER ALTONA, havi:T for an instant quitted the carriage, was severely reproached by his master, on which the crowd interfered and asked the Count what he meant by his brutal con duct towards an honest man. A great number of students and others surrounded the carriage, brandishing their sticks, and would have pro ceeded to excesses, but for the intervention of Count DE PREETZ, who remonstrated with them on the im propriety of such proceedings in presence of the QUEEN. The crowd then shouted " Long live the QUEEN !" and then dispersed. The public meeting on the 14th, at which nearly 3,000 persons were pre sent, went off pretty quiety, but some stones having been thrown, the commandant of the garrison has made this a pretext for issuing a proclamation in which he threatens the use of force in the event of any attempt to disturb public tranquillity. The meeting, at the persuasion of the authorities, dis persed without coming to any resolutions. In the German Universal Gazette, of the 17th, we find a long article on the MONTPENSIER marriage considered in relation to the treaty of Utrecht. It concludes by observing that, if there is nothing in this treaty to prevent the marriage, it excludes from the throne the children of the parties. Madrid papers to the 16th have arrived. Their contents have been, in a great measure, anticipated by the telegraphic dispatch, which we published yesterday. The text of the address of the Deputies is given in the Herald°. It is couched in nearly the same terms as the address of the Senate. Some opposition is ex pected to Senor MoN's Taxes Bill. The British squadron, under the command of Sir W. PARKER, arrived at Cadiz on the 1 1 th. The news of its arrival caused some sensation in Madrid. Don ENRIQUE'S protest against the INFANTA'S mar riage was addressed to Senor SALAMANCA, who wished to have it read to the Cortes. The resi dent CASTRO Y OROZCO, however, pre vented this being done, stating that as it had not been addressed to him as President, it would be contrary to rule to communicate it to the Senate. It is said that Mr. BULWER'S instructions from his Government are, to continue to pursue the same course he has hitherto pursued; to take every ad vantage of his position, but to avoid any step likely to compromise his Government. MADRID BOLSA, SEPT. 16.—The Three per Cents. were done at 36 for cash ; the Four per Cents. at 22 ; the Five per Cents. at, 22i ; the Debt without In terest, at 6i; and the Coupons at 204. We have received the French papers of Monday. The Journal des Debats expresses the great regret with which it observes the conduct of the English press in relation to the MONTPENSIEU marriage, and deprecates with an earnestness that betrays it fears anything like a national movement in Spain—any n ttempt by any party to deliver her from " the yoke which the Duke DE MONTPDNSIER is about to impose pon her." The Presse speaks of the marriage as of fait accompli, while the Constitutionnel suggests that there will be a compromise between England and France on the subject. It says : " The first sacrifice which it is said has been decided upon, in order to calm the resentment of some powers, is the renunciations of the treaty of Utrecht before the celebration of the double marriage. It appears to us, however, impossible to renew them without explanation. In fact, the Duke de Montpeusier cannot, on the part of his children, renounce the throne of Spain, for that would be, on the part of the Infanta, his wife, a real abdication for herself and her descendants of rights the perfect legitimacy of which nothing can destroy. It would, moreover, be to declare the Spanish suc cession open at the death of Isabella, who probably will have no children; and, far from putting an end to the difficulties of a e present state of things, which is the object or the pretext for this double marriage, it would be to prepare for a not very distant future similar complications, and a series of internal troubles. It is then true that the Duke de Montpensier will renounce on the part of his children all right to the crown of France, and thus render impossible the eventual reunion of the crowns of France and Spain on the same head. It is not, therefore, just to say that the Infanta Luisa becomes a French Princess; it is the Duke de Aluntpen sier who becomes a Spanish Prince." The National declares expressly that the French and Spanish Governments have offered to regulate beforehand, in a treaty to be concluded with the Powers interested in the question, the order of suc cession to the throne, in the event of theQuEEN dying without issue; they have offered every possible guarantee to prove to England that they intend to derive no advantage from the marriage that she might not enjoy likewise ; England has been given to understand that France will do her utmost to procure England ample commercial compensa tion ; they have, moreover, promised to obtain of Spain positive engagements in behalf of the numerous creditors of the Spanish Treasury ; they have further propitiated England by deciding that the French Go vernment shall use its whole influence in order that the Spanish navy, which can at present give no um brage, may be limited by conventions made in common." Now, although the National is not very high as a Court authority, yet we think that some compromise on the part of the French Government is about to be pro posed. On Monday a council of the personal friends of the KING was held to deliberate upon the present state of the marriage question, and it is thought extremely probable that the Due DE BROGLIE will be dispatched to London, to endea vour to enter into some arrangement on the subject with the English Government. The Due DE BROGUE, and all the French Ministers have, it is said, been from the beginning, opposed to the marriage, which has been arranged exclusively by King Louis Pniuiruu and Queen C.RISTINA. If this be so, it is another proof of the danger which must inevitably arise whenever a constitutional Sovereign ventures to set at nought the maxim which is the foundation of all constitutional Monarchical Government—" Le Roi refine mais ne gouverne pas." The departure of the Due DE MONTPENSIER is postponed, and it is said that he will not now enter Spain by the Pyrenees, but will embark at Port Vmdres under the protection of Prince DE JOIN.. vinnz's fleet, and land at Valencia. This change of route has taken place in consequence of its having become known that CABRERA had expressed his in tention of securing the Prince on his way to Madrid. Another account states that the Duke will embark at Nantes for Lisbon, and proceed through Portugal to Madrid. The Commerce states that the Prince DE JOIN VILLE has been ordered to cruise with his squadron off the" eastern coast of Spain, in order to prevent the landing of any Carlist chiefs, or of any warlike stores for the use of the Carlist party. A French squadron will cruise off the northern and western coasts of Spain with a similar object. The Gazette de France states that the Prefect of Bourges has arrived in Paris, having been summoned by a telegraphic dispatch, and that he has been very ill received. "On Wednesday last," says the Presse, " the Spanish Generals ALGARA and DE MONTENEGRO, and the Secretary of Commandment of the Count DE MONTEMOLIN, M. MON, left Bourges, doubtless with the consent of the Government. There now only remain at the Palace the GARCIMARTIN family, Madame DE MONTENEGRO, Colonel CALTAVAL, and the domestics." The Prefect of the Loir et Cher, as soon as he was informed of the evasion of the Count DE MONTEMOLIN, addressed to the mayors of the department a circular, containing a minute description of the person of the Spanish Pretender as well as that of CABRERA. The Count is described as follows :•7,. " Age 28 years; height 1 mitre 65 centimetres (5 feet 44 inches English); black hair and eyebrows; narrow and round forehead; brown eyes; large and long nose, a little bent on one side; middle sized mouth; black beard worn en collier; round chin, oral face, and dark com plexion. The upper lip and the teeth slightly project, and which is more visible when talking ; speaks French with facility, but with It strong foreign accent ; the knees turned in, which is more particularly apparent when walking ; holds himself very erect ; a turn in the left eyeball, showing at times the whole of the white; wears his hat inclinded to the right side, and over the eyes." RAMON CABRERA iS thus described... " Born at Tortosa (Catalonia), aged 38 years; height 1 metre 63 centimetres ; black hair and eyebrows; ordi nary forehead, greyish brown eyes, middle-sized nose, mouth rather large, beard black and rather thin, round chin, oval face, dark complexion. His eyebrows are bushy, and come close to each other; has a small scar on the forehead over the left eye, legs slightly bent; never looks a person in the face when addressing him." Intelligence from Oran, of the 10th instant, states that some Arabs of hostile tribes had appeared at Djemma Ghazaouat, and had exchanged shots with the soldiers on guard over the herds. General PE LISSIER, commandant of the sub-division of Mosta ganem, had returned to his post, and was about to march out at the head of a strong column. Accord ing to a letter from Algiers of the 15th, reinforce ments have been sent to Orleansville. General LE VASSEUR is to have the command of the sub-division of Milianah.

Summonses were issued yesterday by Lord John Russell to the Cabinet Ministers, to attend a Cabinet Council at the Foreign-office, Downing-street, on Friday next. A new work by the celebrated author of the " Improvisatore," &c., is announced for publication during the pvesent week by Mr. Bentley. This emi nent author is now by universal consent considered one of the most original writers of the day, and entitled to take his place in the first rank of men of genius. His new book is called " A Poet's Bazaar." _ ROYAL POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTION.—In the great hall of this establishment there is now exhibiting a moat admirable contrivance for the purpose of night signals, and thereby prevent the frequent and lamentable colli sions at sea. These signals are shown and explained at this institution by Mr. Crisp, in nearly the following words:—The Distress Signal not only shows a vessel to be in distress, but also whether she be sailing or steam by the position and colour of the light. Steamers are designated by a red light at the cross-trees; sailing vessels by a green light at the cross-trees, and a bright light at the topmast. The lamps are fitted into a box which contains oil, matches, and every requisite, so that if were necessary to abandon the ship, the lamps might be handed into the boat and serve the purpose not only of signals of distr ess , b ut a l so a ff or d warm th an d com f ort to th crew during the night, and we are informed by , Mr. Kittler, th e inventor, one of these lamps can be k e pt alight the wh c lo night for the trifling expense of six pence. We trust that this plan may be adopted, as scarcely a week passes without some vessel being run down, and entfirely for want of some means, by light, so as to show - The position of each vessel. DREADFUL ACCIDENT, - -On Saturday last a young man, named John Kenny, while employed in putting on the roof of Mr. Kershaw's new mill, near Ashton-under- Lyne, fell from the top, a distance of six stories, and lighting with his face downwards on an iron bar, was so mutilated th at ho expired shortly afterwards. An in quest was held on the body on Monday, when it ap peared that his death was purely accidental. Deceased was 22 years of age. Mrs. Glover, the celebrated actress, has returned to London, frorni a tour through the provinces, in which - she was accompanied by two lady pupils, of whom the various journ als speak in terms of high laudation. FOOT RA CE FOR TEN POUNDS.—Yesterday, the half-mile race between Campin and Toulmin came off in the Waterloo-road, and after a well contested race the latter won by five yards. Ho ran the half mile in two minutes and Vivelye seconds. MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS. CITY, QUARTER TO THREE. In the Cotton Market at Liverpool yesterday the sales were about 6,000 bales, including 2,500 American un speculation. Prices were fully supported.—Shares were very dull. The sale of railway shares yesterday, at Messrs. Lamond and Co.'s, went off very well, and prices generally were steady. The following are a few of the principal sales .

The private letters by the mail from India and China have been delivered this morning, but they contain little information, except upon business matters, that ha, already been made public. The sate of the money market is represented to be improving rather than other wise. We learn from Assam that the cultivation of the tea plant there was on the increase. _ _ As there seems likely to be an attempt to found a minor Share-Exchange in London, it wouldseem a fitting time for the "old house at home" to offer a few extra facilities to the public at large in the conduct of their business, which would add to the security at pre sent afforded a good deal of satisfaction at the know ledge of the terms upon which sales or purchases were made. In short, as at Paris, the public, or at least those dealing and giving orders, should be al lowed, it is thought, to see their business done from a gallery or screened apartment, where the prices called out could be distinguished. No doubt, the brokers generally do their best for their clients, but still there are jobbers to be favoured, who would not be so exclusively dealt with, perhaps, were there a more open market. Perhaps the following account of the mode of doing business in the Boston market may afford a hint : • Forty members, more or less, assemble daily between the hours of eleven and twelve, when every stock on the list is called over consecutively by the presiding officer. Each broker has a printed sheet before him, and records the sales, the price offered, the prices asked, and the number of shares in each case. Ref resenting, as they do, the great mass of buyers and sellers, are thus made acquainted with the state of the market, and are then prepared to execute the orders of their clients understandingly, for buying or selling either at the board or in the street. The board is a useful association, and numbers in its ranks gentle men of business talents, integrity and wealth." The English Stock market has been heavy again, and there has been very little doing.

FORGERY OP RAILWAY SCRIP. John Bannister Faulkner, who stands indicted, together with a person named Bentham Fabian, with issuing forged scrip of the Buckinghamshire or Bletchley and Oxford Junction Railway, surrendered to take his trial this morning. Bentham Fabian, who is charged with forging the scrip, has absconded from his bail. Faulkner pleaded not guilty to the indictment charg ing him with issuing the forged scrip with the Intent W defraud Leon Solomons, he well knowing it to be K'rg ed ' and having incited Fabian to forge it. Mr. CLARKSON having stated the case for the pm' . secution, Mr. BALLANTYNE submitted, on behalf of the prid soner, that there was no case against him to go to the jury, inasmuch as the instrument was not intended as e receipt or acquittance for money, and therefore it did not come wit'oin the meaning of the Act of Parliament' Mr. Justice M..‘ULE said he would take a note of the objection, but he thought the case should proceed. e The following witnesses were then called on behalf el the prosecution.
