Under the itu pressioo of getting something .to satisfy nature, Barry accompanied Pelham and lower to a public house, where they drank gin preparatory to the divulgement of the secret by which they were all to become independent.

B (rry said he woold have nothing to do with that kind of profit. Pelham was not discomfited by aria refusal, but asked Barry whether he could not get eumebody to tlask3.shilling pieces. " 1 can get the mao," said ratan), " who can colour a quart . rot in the first style," After some prevailing ar guments used by Power and Pelham, Burry he: game an accomplice in the plot against society...-. They immediately set to work, and found at the corner of a street two'persons who seemed just fit for their operations. Quin oriel Reardon were looking aboot•for a job, and they were determined to give then one that would make them reatem• her their visit to London. Power and Barry were selected to bite them for the job. The poor Irish men instantly bounced at the invitation to work, and followed their employers to a public-house, by their command, where porter was given to them to keep up their spirits. Pewee, who knew some. (Vora by the country from which they came, then administered an oath, which he told Barry would be binding upon them. lie toade theui kiss a primed paper, awl cross themselves, and then declare that t •cy (void(' never say a word of what t h e y were g fii n g to do.

Power was gland to heer=it, an d administered the oath to fondly, who, will Irong!it iiito his company soon afterwards.— itarry's son was in the mean time in deco convey sestina with Brock, who, at the end nt it,Selit hint to phte colouring materials, of which a c0i1:64.1.0)1e :64.1 . 0)1e quantity was necessary, and aquatortis. Tice . man who cut the brass into a round torni was Irarer, who appeared very clever at his business in all its branches. When Barry's son shewed the brass to l'o\yer, that experienced man said, "This won't (I(); its not good enough to convict a man, we missed before by such stuff as this." The three Irishmen were, however, set to work Power and Pelham at the brass plate, which Power h e, them how to use., They were promised b.leore tired 'cabbage for dinner, and in the mean t ime were furnished with coffee and bread. %try s'aw Brock soOn after the work was set going, und iv:is told by him that he had been after Mr. Tay, Inn, the ofncer, who said he would attend its a n i ol a cot. Brock also told BarrY that Taylor did not know a syllable of the business. w"m now ready, the several panics bad ta! , ;(o) tutus' stations', and Pelham !Vass to give the ; the signiii and the Irishmen were . apprehended. When Barry seemed anxioria lir On the occasion soon after; Pelham:told hint it tiroald be the Making of his fortune, and Brook swore by Barry should meke.his fortune in that line of •bitsinetts, awl be would do it for hint.

Brock, not withstooding . . this asserante, desired the' boy to hey sonic boar for making clasps, and described the • stuff to be Sheet brass, lie fmt ehased it and brOnt:lit .it to Brock at his loose, tool was immediately dispatched to An. geb alley-V:4lv the. brass Anil the materials fin co louiiarg.:„When,lie arrived there he began to Ws. pea that all was not ► ; g ill, and he said, upon going into Brock's house after the Irishman kvere taken, that if he had known w hat tarot k and Pelham had been about, he wou'hi haye suffered any thing before be had joitied them. , l'elham was at Brook's art the time, and upon hearing. wit at ;tat ty's son said he rose and swore by the :Cross of Christ, if be'said any thing about the in t ttter to a living creature, be and his fatheN. should be banged as high as Hammon. Pelham denied the Conclusion of this statement, and said, that nothing but the truth should be fold . , which Was, God knew, had enough. Barry swore to the i►lentity of the two files, but contti not to the hauluer, as Power was the man that Could use that instrnu►ent. Power was the finisher. _ Taylor, the officer, who was Folicired by Brock to engage in ibis business for the service of the- public, stated nothing in athlition,to his evidence at‘ the . {Orates. , comicial ions. The evidence of Mr. Bradfield, the publican, at whose house it has been said, upon a lrmerday, Brock, Pelham, and others, were drinking, and seemed to be planning something that was not tight, teas next read. - That of Coilins,'at whose hoase Block lodged fur two years, and, that of Langan, from whom Pelham hired the roPM at Cow-cross, followed, but nothing important MIS ittaitiled in their depositions. In the depositions of 111 rs. Fiala it appeared, that the prisoner, Pelham, boi rowed a pair of scissars from her, and she swore at the examina-• Lion that they were the scissars produced at the °Kee' , which -.ere found amongst theother imple ments used by the Irishmen. • Brock and Pelham appeared verranxionS . about the evidence of the next witness, Mrs. Ptirkiss, who swore that the hammer 'and files produced at the Office were sold by her to t men,. whom she believed to be Brock and Pelham. She wottld not positively swear that they were the purchasers.• Brock strenuously denied that he had ever seen her, of ever purchased SBA articles. MWOnnell's depositions were the last read.— It will be remembered that he was present when . Quin and Reardon were hired; and that while he was awaiting the event of _the trial at the Old Bailey he saw Power and Barry in the Court. yardi that he followed and secured Barry, note withstanding the opposition given to him by Power, who knocked him down ; and that this transaction led to the developement of the plot. The LORD MAYOR said, that the patilic Were principally indebted to M'Donnell for his conduct on the occasion. A. Gentleman who was in the Office immedi ately told his Lordship that he would place M'Donnell in a comfortable situation under and took him from the Office for that pniPot;e. The Lotto M ATOE having asked the cause of his ecape from prison, that prisoner said, although he could stand against a true witness, be had no power against a false one ; aced the woman who said be was the man that purchased the hammer and tiles had perjured d herself. The LORD MAYOR told him that he had not ob;_ served the caution with which bee evidence had been given, She had refused to swear posivively that he was the !pall. Brock hoped that his former excellent character would be a mutter of consideration. Lie had done his utmost, he said, to come to the bottom of the had hosiness, before his Lordship, as Mr. Burgess well knew, This reference brought forward the person whose name was mentioned. He used a great many words to prove. that he was not employed by Brock, and , muttered something against the publication of what occurred upon the fait day of examination. The Loan MAYOR 'Said, that Brock was the only persoh who stated that lie (Burgess) was his so licitor. Brock said, he had been, from several circum stances, lett to snppose that. he would have had the assistance of Mr. Burgess. Brock and. Pelham were then committed for aid ing and abetting in coining. —They were ordered to he taken to Giltspnr strect.Compter, hiSLordship having thought that their .persons could not be.secure in 'Newgate. They were not sent from the Mansion-house till night, the crowd being very great in the neighbourhood, and their indignation being ex prebsed as .violently 39 it could be-in hooting and groaning. , POLICE INTELLIGENCE.
