FRANCE. The Civil Tribunal of Boulogne-sur-;!tier lately gave a decision of great importance to travellers. A gentleman named Shewell brought an action before it against the E!stern and Continental Steam Packet Company, to recover damages for a carpet-bag and its contents, som e of which were bank-notes, which had been placed on 2il September last on board the company's steamer the Princess Clementine, and which was subsequently lost. The plaintiff proved the delivery of the bag to one of the company's men, and its subsequent disappearance ; and he gave reason able proof that it contained bank-notes. Under these circumstances, the Tribunal condemned the corn piny's agent at Boulogne, Mr. Bernard, to restore the bag and its contents, or to pay 2,0641. damages; and it did so, notwithstanding the company declares in its printed tariffs that it will not be responsible for losses of more than 250 f., unless articles of greater value be previously declared. It has been stated that the masters and second masters of the steamers the Ville de Marseille and Ville de Grasse, which ran into each other in No vember last near the Isles d'Hyeres, off Toulon, and caused the death of several passengers, had been brought to trial before the Tribunal of Correctional Police of that city. An account of the commence ment of the trial has already appeared. The affair was brought to a close on Thursday, by the acquittal of the two captains, MU. Combes and Gazan, and the condemnation of the second of the Ville de Mar seille, M. Bousquet, to a month's imprisonment and 501. fine, and of the second of the Ville de Grasse, M. Allies, to 15 days' imprisonment and 25f. fine. GERMAN V. The Germanie Diet held its last sitting before the vacation, at on the 12th. It passed by a large majority a resolution, that the Constitution of Frankfort can only be revised in conformity with the dispositions of the supplementary Act of 1819, and under the express reservation of all the rights of the Diet. A letter from Stuttgart of the 10th says : —.41 The French Embassy has invited the clergy of the Ca thelic Church of our city to celebrate divine service on the 15th, but as that is a Sunday, and Assumption day, the clergy have replied that it is impossible to do so this year on the 15th, but they have offered to perform a service on another day." A letter from Vienna, 9th, states that M. de Hul semanns, the Austrian ambassador to the United States, will not leave for his post se soon as was at first expected. The French Government follows with great interest the proceedings of the Customs' Conferences, and has charged its agents to send cir cumstantial accounts. The French ambassador at Vienna has received orders to declare that the French Government was di s p ose d to enter into negotiations for the conclusion of the treaty of commerce and customs. The Emperor of Austria has given orders for the re-organization of the army. The infantry of the line is to be composed of 62 regiments, each divided into four battalions, and also a battalion of grenadiers, and a depot battalion. The total number of men and officers in each regiment will be 5,964. By a recent decree, the alloy of silver money w ith copper, in the Aus t ri an Empire, w fi i x t e h d th a e t loper cent. of the weight , and the excep tion old coins, of the Marie Theresa crowns, which are used in the trade with the east, are to be recoined. -VENTILATION AND LIGHTING THE LIOUSE OF COODIONS. Such of our reade.ra as attempt —stern in the pursuit " Second Report f rom t h e o f k n , ,)wlEdge - -to master the Select Committee on Ventilation and Lighting of the H ous e [:if Commons]; together eit.h the ePeceeedins o f the tnittee, Minut es o f Evidence Appendix, and' °dee,"!Com will find it a t oug h j o b .

On one point near l y a ll t h e w i tnesses, w i t h the excepaon of those that might be depended on, are agreed, and that is th e want o f t h e fi rst nec essary and condition for life i n th e new H ouse o f C o mmons. The inquiry farther proves, what is useful to be known, that we are still floundering in ignorance of this subject, and that opinions diametrically opposite, and in some cases dangerous to deadliness, are entertained by men who have the confidence of large numbers of persons. The Committee were evidently posed. They worked hard: seine of them put pertinent questions, and tried to get at principles; but with small results, and the conse quence is a report which leaves the real question very nearly where it was, excepting by negation. They are able to say that the " Committee desire to give it as their opinion that the failure of ventilation of the House of Commons, at the commencement of the session, can not fairly be imputed to any radical defect in Dr. Reid's system, because the House was hastily occupied, with an infinity of arrangements incomplete; and the light ing, from which the greatest amatit of mischief arose, was neither contrived by Dr. Reid ne: under his control." They are of opinion that much improvement would be effected by an enlargement of the openings, both for the supply and discharge of air; but the only recommenda tion that they make, " in the present conflicting state of opinion," is, as regards future management, that " the entire responsibility of ventilating and lighting the house, and its appendages, should be confided to one competent person, under the direction and supervision of the Board of Works; and with a view to secure proper attention to any complaints that may hereafter arise, a committee should be named, at the commence meet of each session, to confer with the Board of Works upon any measures that may appear necessary to remove such complaints." Of our own opinion of the costly and complicated machinery introduced at the new Houses to fight in some cases against nature, and with no chance of success, our readers are aware. In closing our notice, we must say we have no sympathy with those who talk about partially pure air, and improving the vitiated air by the admission of fresh. Oace breathed, it must be got rid of, and, in order to get rid of it, it must be allowed to go off at once while it is in a condition to ascend: cool it and it will remain by you until it has again been warmed.—Builder.

Richard Sill upon an unlawfully charging him with misdemeanor in having obtained money by false pretences from Henry Broome. Mr. Parry and Mr. Metcalf conducted the prose cution ; M r . B a ll for the defendant antine and Mr. Doyle were counsel . The Learned COUNSEL for the prosecution, on open ing the case , said i charact er , an d he t was one of a very remarkable of th e j ury tothereforeth bespoke the serious atten tionfacts he should lay before them in supp or t o f the charge. The defendant was charged money by false pretences, an offence which under all ci rious ch arac t er, b rcumstances was one of a very se rious still ut which in the present instance was was a moreperson serious l by the fact that the de fendantt;non who had occupied a very re speceahle position‘ ' society, who had for some time been an attor ney under a n y cirent , Isia"d who, therefore, ought not, ,ances, to have been a party to any violation of the law, He then proceeded to state that the def en d an t Mr. Henry Broome, charged with having obtained from ooue th e prosecutor of the present indict:n ea t, sever a l bills of exchange of a large ernouet, and also a considerable amount in cash, under false peet en ees' iu connexion yeah a charge of card cheating a t B had obtai ne d a r i ghton, the particulars of which °I deal of notoriety, and the facts of which it would good Learned b e necessary for him briefly to allude. Counsel then called the attention of the jury to the circumstance of the charge against John Broome, the brother of the prosecutor of the present indictment, and t James, the lwo other persons named Staden and latter whom, it will be remembered, were convicted atr of the recent assizes at Lewes, and sentenced to tw o defendant, who hadyears' hard labour, and said that the acted as the solicitor for the pro secution, in the first instance, was now charged with obtaining bill s o f exchange and money from the pro secutor, under the Walpole, pretence that he had had an inter viewthe Secretary of State for the Home Department, and prevent a his that he brother sufficient influence with him to trans ported, and that h e could, in fact, relievefr ombeing him from any inconvenience in ref; had been preferred against re him.nce to the indictment that He should be able to prove most clearly that by means of this false re presentation the defendant had obtained property to a considerable amount from the prosecutor ; and he said he must confess he was at a loss to imagine what line of defence would be taken. An attempt would probably be made, he said, to attack the character of the prosecutor, and ho was bound to admit that Henry Broome had been a prizefighter, and that he had also been connected with the turf; and it might be urged that he was a man n ot very likely to be imposed upon; but the jury must recollect that he had to deal with an attorney, a by his man of experienoe, and who,position as solici tor for the prosecution against his brother, would ne cessarily have a great deal of influence over him, and by whom, tneretore, he might more easily have been deceived. The L ear n ed Counsel next proceeded to circumstances refer to some o f the oth er w of the case, and the followi n g evid ence as Mr. Verrall, clerk to the benchthen adduced of magistrates at Brighton, deposed that he acted in that capacity upon the occasions of the different . examinations of g ofg ° --- Staden, James, and Joh n B roome, upon the char'-' Nein• ing money a nd bills of ex change mea ns of cheating at cards. The from Mr. Ramp by defendant, Mr. Sill, had attended several exam inations in the capacity of and solicitor for th e p rosecuto r , he did so on the Bth of March. Upon that occasion he asked for the mot i o n of the magistrates to be allowed to with draw from , the prosecution ;a°4also that the ree ognizenees o f Mr. Chase, th Brighton, who had been hound over to prosecute, e chief constable of shou ld be discharged. Tog ground ha alleged for desiring to withdraw from aS that Mr. Hamp had made an the prosecution W subject of his b ill of costs in which affidavit upon the he made a state ment directly in contradictionto the evidence he had given before the magistrates, and that his evidence therefore could not be relied upon. The magistrates aPPd re ti r ed to cansider the 1 cation thl ,and upon their re turn they told th e defendan t t as he desired to did w i t hd raw from the case they not consider him any longer as the soli citor for the capacity. The prosecution, and he did not again appear i n the case inthat magistrates a fterwards instructed witness to carry on the prosecution , and he did so, and Staden and James were tried at the last assizes at L ewis and convicted. Jehh. Beoolne did not surrender to take his trial with them. Henry Broom? , the prosecuh d or,deposed that h formerly kept the Opera Tavern in the a _ ii, Haymarket, but wee at present raaiding at No. 10 9 ..4.. - ic had been a pugilist, and Was knots7nlj s-grove, as the chem. the prize ring, or w h a t , • pion of laugh.) He remembered a young g gentleman named Hem b p going to lodg e at the p ublic-house kept -y ki brother, w John Broome, in Air-street, Piccadilly an , s t that he ent with h race - s "is brother to Brighton an - last year, mid that shortly afterwards r • charge tmt made, against his brother and two persons Stadeu and James, of cheating Mr. H"Z ed and defrauding, him of money by f ou l - rt i rh at cards. Witness did not go to 13ay Brighton with them. He knew nothing of what ocearred there. He first heard of the char g e on the c) August. He kn ew nothing of the defendant,- M ll of r. Sill, until this charg e Was made against his brother, and the first time he saw him was on the evening of the 6th of March, w hen he was sent fur to an shop in the Strand, and found him there. Wh en defendat; saw him he mune up to him and ela h the hands with him, an d sa id he had been wanting t s oak l o se© him for some time, and they then had several of grog, the greater part of which witness paid After some time the defendant proposed that the for. should go together to witness's house, as he said ac- could not speak before s o many people, and they i cordingly went togethe r to the Opera Tavern rt this thus it was nearly 12 o clock, and they went into into the bar, and the de fendant then said that it t: was he who had carried on th e p rosecution against Wit ness's br o th e r, and that he had seen the Secretarvni State upon the subject, a nd he bad told him th"at"ii his brother Was convicted h e would be transPorteo. He at the same time said that it would be impossible for m,Pcssible for him to eseape, as ha ha d drawn the indictment and had put 13 counts into it, and it was impossible for his brother to get through it. They had a good deal of conversation together; in fact, the converse. tion lasted until 5 o'clock the next morning.—(A laugh.) In addition to what he had before stated, the defendant told him that there was just time enough to save his brother, and that he could do it, but he must have at le as t 300/. It cvas 5 o'clock on Sunday morning when the defendant left his house, and be said he would give him until 2 o'clock that'day to get up the money. He was aw are that the defendant e had be ' e engaged as , the attorney for the prosecution, and he was therefore induced to believe his statement' with regard to his been in communication with having 4. with the Secretary' of State. The deendant c ame , again t o his .tet house about 2 o'clock, and he then re again ' pealed what ha hadstated• bout before a the power he possessed with the Secretary of State, and lie also said I that he had Mr.the chief r o neer of Brighton, got Chase,. substituted as the prosecutor instead of 'qr. EVENING, AUGUST 18, 1852. Hamp, and he pointed to a paragraph that was in a newspaper upon the table in confirmation of his state ment, and he said it had been done through the Se cretary of State. In consequence of what the defen dant said upon this occasion witness was induced to give him two bills of 1201. each. These bills were noon French stamps, and they were drawn by John Hainp, the brother of Mr. Hamp, who was the prose cutor of the indictment, and indorsed by witness and his brother. The defendant said he must have some money as well as the bills, and witness gave him a 101. note, two 51. notes, and a cheek for 201. He then said as there might b 3 some difficulty in getting these bills discounted, he must have an English bill of exchange for 2401. with witness's and his brother's name upon it. Witness told him that it was Sunday, and he could not get a stamp, but the de fendant said he must go and find one, and he went out and obtained a stamp from a neighbour, and when he came back it was filled up for 2401. at four months' date. The defendant kept possession of all the bills, and he remained at witness's house drinking until eleven o'clock at night. The drink was all at wit ness's expense of course.—(A. laugh.) During the day the defendant wanted him to put his name to the French bills • and on his telling him that he was a bankrupt, and that he could not pay, and his name would be of no use, the defendant said that he was a good bankruptcy lawyer, and witness might take his word that he would come to no harm through signing the bills On the following day (Monday) witnesd and the defendant went down to Brighton, for the purpose, according to the defendant's statement, of getting Mr. Chase's recognizances taken off, and having the prosecution put a stop to, and he at the same time said that if he (the defendant) took no further steps in the prosecution, he was sure the Se cretary of State would not. They went to the Town-hall, but when Mr. Sill was about to make the application to the magistrates the court was cleared, and witness therefore did not know what oc curred. They returned to town together, and since that time he bad repeatedly seen the defendant at his house; and on several occasions, up to the 13th of April, he gave money to the defendant. Upon one occasion he gave him 201. for the purpose of going down to Herefordshire to see -the prosecutor and some other persons, ani obtain affidavits with a view to get the venue for the trial removed from Sussex to some other county. Witness was at Lewes at the spring assizes of the present year, and his brother John- also went down one day but returned at night. On the 13% of April the defendant came to wit ness's house. His brother was there at the time with some friends, but the defendant said he came upon business, and all the other persons except witness, his brother, and the defendant were requested to leave the room. The defendant said that two of the bills that were given to him were of such a long date that he could do nothing with them, and he must have an order upon a banker for 2001. at seven days, and 15/. or 20/. in money. At this time witness had from the defendant 1201. or 1301. in notes besides the bills. He had consulted his solicitor upon the affair, and what subsequently took place upon this occasion was done under legal advice. When the defendant said he must have the bill for 2001. witness asked him how he could think of demanding such serious amounts from them when he knew very well that his brother was innocent, and that he himself had no thing whatever to do with the matter, and he replied that it did not matter how innocent they were, but it was what the world thought of them. A bill stamp was then sent for and a bill for 2001. was drawn, and the defendant produced the other bills and laid them on the table. Witness's brother then asked to look at the stamp on the 2001. hill, and as he was reaching it he picked up all the other bills and put them in his pocket, and witness now produced them. The de fendant was very excited and demanded the bills back, and said that if they were not returned to him he would never leave them until he had transported either witness or his brother. The witness concluded by stating that at the time he gave the hills and the money to the defendant he did so entirely upon his representation with regard to his influence with the Secretary of State. Cross-examined by Mr. BALTANTINE—None of these securities have been paid except 251. This was paid on the 6th of March. Mr. Hamp is not here to give evidence. I am the prosecutor of this indict ment. I have prepared three indictments against the defendant altogether, but before any charges were made I went to the police-office and obtained advice. The magistrate did not refute to grant me a summons, but he told me I might give Mr. Sill into custody when I met him. I don't know what Mr. Sill was charged with, but I believe that one of the counts of the indictment charged him with rob bing me and my brother. He was charged with stealing these very bills and money. He was acquitted upon two of these indictments in the Court of Queen's Bench, because no evidence was offered against him. I had known Mr. Hemp for 12 months before he came to London, but I did not recommend him to go to my brother's house. I had seen Staden and James there. I know what my brother was charged with, and I had heard that it was a transport able offence. I did not give the money to Mr. Sill to compromise the charge, but on account of my be lieving he had influence enough with the Secretary of State to get my brother transported. I believed my brother was innocent, but still I thought it was possible he might be transported. I swear that I believed Mr. Sill had the power to get my brother transported, through his influence with the Secre tary of State, and I wanted my brother to be saved. I did not know how Mr. Sill was going to act, nor how he was going to save my brother. I have seen Mr. Hemp repeatedly during these proceedings, and I know that he wanted to withdraw from the prose cution, so far as my brother was concerned. I went down to Hereford with Mr. Hamp. I went there to get myself into condition. I did not get myself into condition among the " independent voters" at the last election.—(A laugh.) I was at Ledbury at the time of the election. I was not in training there. The RECORDER—Are you going to try this case as an election committee ? Mr. BALLA.NTINE—No, my Lord ; my only object was to show how the gentleman employed himself. Cross-examination continued—ln the course of the proceedings Mr. Sill told me he could not get his bill of costs from Mr. Hamp. Re-examined—All the legal proceedings that were taken were with the sanction and advice of his legal adviser. Witness knew nothing whatever about " dummy" indictments.—(A laugh.) The indict ments were removed to the Queen's Bench by Mr. Sill, and he was acquitted in consequence of none of the witnesses being in attendance. A witness named Thomas Bray was then called upon his subpoena, but he did not appear. Mr. Samuel Genesse deposed that he knew the de fendant and the prosecutor, and remembered seeing them on a Sunday, about the month of March, at Broome's house; and he recollected drawing a bill at the request of Henry Broome. The bill was dated the 6th of March, and he had no doubt it was drawn near that time. It was the same bill now produced. The defendant did not upon any occasion call upon him and request him to discount any bills. Mr. Edwin Parry deposed that he was managing clerk to Mr. John Smith, an attorney at Birming• ham. In March last Mr. Sill called at their office, and witness saw him and inquired if his business re lated to the affair of Mr. Hemp. He replied that his business in Birmingham was to get some bills discounted, and he produced the two French bills for 1201. each, and the English one. Witness looked at them, and said he did not like the names, and that Mr. Hamp was good for nothing, and that he did not think Mr. Smith would have anything to do with them on account of Mr. Broome's position. The de fendant replied, that if he referred to the Brighton affair that was arranged. Witness then said ho sup posed these bills had been given to settle it, and Mr. Sill smiled, and said they were. William Thackeray, waiter at the Opera Tavern, proved that the defendant came there on Saturday night, the 6th of March, accompanied by his master, Mr. Henry Broome. He was in and out of the room where they were occasionally, and he heard Mr. Sill say that he had been to the Secretary of State, and be had told him that if his brother was con victed he would be sure to be transported. Mr. Sill, after this, called at the house almost every day up to the 13th of April, and he several times asked wit ness if his master had left any money for him, and when he told him he had not he appeared very angry, and said it would be worse for him if he did not leave him some. A memorandum in the handwriting of the de fendant, to the, effect that he would give up the twc bills for 1201. each if the one for 240/. was paid when it arrived at maturity, was then put in and read. . Mr. John Sheerman deposed that he was a witness in support of the card cheating that was originally preferred at Brighton. Before he was examined at Brighton he saw Mr. Sill at 'the -Cheshire Cheese public -house, and he was represented to be the attor ney for the prosectition. Mr. Harnp said that John Broome knew nothing of the transaction, but Mr. Sill said they must put him in because he WAS a moneyed man, and he would . Pay the expenses. Upon another neeasit:n h e saw Mr. Sill at the residence of Mr. Ramp, in Herefordshire, and he said be had got a good deal of money out of the prosecution, and witness was a fool if he did not get some too. Witness told him he should .do no such thing.. He (Mr. Sill) knew very well that Broome was xnnocent,•and that Mr. Ramp had told him so, and he replied that it did not matter—innocent or not, it was what the world thought of it. On the 16th ('f March h e at _ tended th e ass iz e s at Ltwe ,, , and Mr. Sill, who m he met there, told him he had got it good amount in cash and bills. from Henry Broom e , ee m and he (witness) wou ld be of great assistance to h . if he c ou ld persuade him that he ha d great infinen with the Secretary of State, to prevent hi s b rother from being transport ed ; and if he di d 80 , and h from h im he..(witness) e sh e o o a u l l d d get a bill for 300/. more "stand in" and have a third. He refused to have anything to do with the, matter, and told him he knew very well that John Broome was innocent. Mr. Sill then said that he had completely frightened Henry. Broome by telling him of his influence with the Se creary of Sate. Cross•exarnined—He read something in a Brighton newspaper about Mr. Sill having stated that he and some of the other witnesses for the prosecution were unworthy of belief. He was an attorney's clerk, but he had not been in any employment for more than a twelvemonth. He had got his living since then by stopping with Mr. Homo at his house in the country as " companion." He had no other means of ob taming a livelihood at present. When Mr. Ramp was in London witness stayed with him at Johnny Broome s, and he accompanied the parties to Brighton upon the occa s i on w h en Mr. Hanapwas plundered by James and Staden. Re-examined:-:11 e knew Mr. Hamp from living near him in Herefordshire. They were both Here fordshire men. Mr. Hemp was the son of a banker, and bad some property. Mr. Secretary W a lp o l e was th en exam i ne d . H e said—l am her Majesty's principal Secretary of State for the Home Department, and have held that office since the 27th of February. Ido not remember ever having seen the defendant before to-day, and I know nothing whatever relating to the card cheating case at Brighton, except from seeing the reports in the news papers. The defendant never called upon me in re ference to any indictment upon the subject, and I certainly never expressed any opinion to him as to whether John Broome would be transported or not. Mr. PARRY—It appears almost too absurd to ask such a question ; but had the defendant any influence whatever over you ? Mr. BALLANTINE—Oh, of course it would be ab surd to ask such a question. We admit the defendant had no influence whatever. By Mr. BALLANTINE—There are two Under-Se cretaries, Mr. Waddington and Sir W. Jolliffe. There are two other principal Secretaries of State, one for Foreign Affairs and the other for the Colonies. Mr. PARRY—But I suppose it is not very likely either of these high officers would be likely to take cognizance of a card cheating case at Brighton ? Mr. Secretary Walpole—l should say certainly not. I think, however, Mr. Waddington did say something to me with regard to his having been sub permed to attend a trial upon such a charge. Mr. H. B. Dunn deposed that he was engaged as the attorney for Mr. Hemp. While he was engaged in that capacity Mr. Sill sent in his bill of costs for conducting the prosecution, which amounted to over 3001. This sum was afterwards reduced by taxation to 1551., and thatreduced amount was paid to the de fendant. This was the case for the prosecution. Mr. BALLA.NTINE submitted that the falsehood of the allegation upon which the indictment rested had not been sufficiently proved. It appeared there were two Under-Secretaries of State, and as neither of them were called on behalf of the prosecution there was nothing to show that they were not the parties referred to by the defendant when he spoke of the Secretary of State. The RECORDER overruled the objection, observing that it was a question for the jury whether the whole was not a fabrication, and whether the defendant had been in communication with any Secretary of State at all. Mr. BALLANTINE then addressed the jury for the defendant. He said he would not for a moment en deavour to put Mr. Sill before the jury as a person who had acted properly in this transaction, or who deserved to be at all represented as an honourable member of what was undoubtedly an honourable pro fession when properly exercised ; but on the contrary, he was bound to admit, in the outset, that he had acted most improperly, and that he had endeavoured to use the criminal law for the purpose of furthering his own interest, instead of making it the means of punishing those who had committed a most serious offence. lie would not attempt to justify his conduct, but he mast remark that he had already suffered most severely. In fact he was a ruined man. His pros pects were utterly destroyed, and there was not the slightest chance of his ever being able to do any more mischief, at all events in the profession to which he belonged. While, however, he made this admission, he said he felt bound to contend that this was the extent of his fault, and that he ought not to be convicted upon the charge of obtaining money by false pretences. He urged that there could be no doubt what were the real facts of the case. It was evident that Hemp was an unwilling prosecutor, and that the defendant saw pretty plainly 'he was in the hands of persons who were not very likely to carry on the prosecution to a satisfactory termination, and having incurred very considerable expense, and being in want of money, he endeavoured to reimburse himself by compromising the offence with the brother of one of the accused parties. If, therefore, he had been ac cused of endeavouring to compromise a misdemeanour he should not have had a word to say for him ; but here he was charged with obtaining money by false pretences, which offence he contended he had not committed, and, in point of fact, never thought of committing. As to the statement about the Secre tary of State, he submitted that it had nothing what ever to do with the case. The real truth was that Henry Broome wanted to get his brother out of the scrape, and the intention with which everything was done was that the prosecution should be abandoned. The defendant, Mr. Sill, most improperly lent him self to the proceeding, and so far as he was concerned he endeavoured to carry it out, for he withdrew from acting as the solicitor for the prosecution. The ma gistrates, however, very properly, no doubt, and in the strict and honourable performance of their duty, would not allow the matter to be settled in that man ner, but instructed their clerk to carry on the prose cution. But this was not the fault of Mr. Sill ; he had done all be could to stop the prosecution and had not broken any faith with Broome, and it certainly did appear to him to be rather a hardship that where two persons were parties to an illegal transaction that, because it did not turn out to the satisfaction of one of them, be should be allowed to turn round upon his companion. He submitted that this was the real history of the present proceeding, and that there could be no doubt that this indictment was only preferred out of a feeling of revenge at the compromise having been frustrated, and that two of the parties should have been convicted, and the brother of the pro secutor compelled to leave the country to avoid pos sibly sharing the same fate. The RECORDER then summed up the whole case with great clearness. Having explained the law upon the subject of the charge, he observed, there could be no doubt that they were wading through very dirty water, and that a great many of the per sons concerned in the whole of this transaction were very far from respectable. He trusted that the dis closures that had been made, however, would ha l ve the effect of warning young men of fortune of the pitfalls that were prepared for them in this metro polis, and that it would prevent them from associating with persons of disreputable character. With regard to the defendant, enough had been shown to make it quite clear, at all events, that he had taken a part in the matter quite unworthy the position he held ; but the jury ought not to allow that to influence their minds, and he ought not to be con victedhe upon the specific charge was accused unless the evidence made out the truth of that charge. f e e ee whiche du clearlyetof the defendant towards Mr. amp ahndrTheihsep to endeavour to compromise the he c ha r cl oc n ee o ( t i h in ia g ig s might ag possibly be to do with the present forcaste these acts, but here the punished in . another way e a f a lse pretence to the e . 111l b ° , o f n , e i false, and dd did w t with et,h in inten tion question was, had t p i r o o n s prosecutor, defraud knowing him e l f t i o s of fact, defraud ? h The jury, after d e liberating time in th e og me a an s s h wish to retire.
