CRIMINAL COURT—Oct. 26. OLD COURT. (Before Mr. Justice Willis, Mr. Baron Alderson, and Mr. Baron Martin.) THE TRIAL OF SIR JOHN DEAN PAUL, STRAHAN, AND BATES. (Continued from our first edition of yesterday.) Mr. Alfred Tindale examined by Mr. Poland—l am clerk to Mr. Joseph Symonds, and received on the 4th September, 1854, the interest on two Danish Five per Cent. Bonds, Nos. 458 and 793. The Coupons were re ceived from a person at Copenhagen. Interest was re ceived for the same bonds on 3d March, 1855. Mr. M‘Kenzie, clerk to Messrs. Overend, Gurney, and Co.—On Ist September, 1854, received the divi dend on Coupon No. 87 ; he also received dividends in April, 1855, on Coupons Nos. 426 and 457. Messrs. Overend and Gurney received the Coupons from their correspondents at Copenhagen. Mr. Thomas Clarke examined by Mr. Poland—l am clerk to Messrs. Westernholts, 26, Mark-lane. He re ceived the dividends on Coupons Nos. 378, 459, 460, and 573, for a correspondent in Hamburgh, in March, 1855. Mr. Hamburgh examined by Mr. Bodkin—l am one of the firm alluded to. The Danish 5 per cent. loan was negotiated by me. The bonds produced were issued by me. The Coupons bear the same letter and number as the bond. Of the same loan bonds of one number only were issued. By Mr. Baron Alderson—l think it would be impos sible for a bond of 1001., and one of 2001., of the same loan, to bear the same number. By Sir F. Thesiger—The time when the dividend becomes due is marked on each coupon. . . Mr. W. Bell, official assignee to the bankrupts, ex amined by the Attorney-General—l recollect an appli cation from Dr. Griffiths' solicitor on 16th June, after the bankruptcy of the prisoners. In consequence of that I saw Mr. Strahan, and also Mr. Bates. I asked Strahan what had become of Dr. Griffiths' securities. He said they were sold or pawned, and would not be forth coming. I had asked in the course of that week, in the presence of Mr. Strahan and Mr. Bates, if there was no security book kept. They looked at each other, but said nothing. No such book had been found. Cress-examined by Sir F. Thesiger—l am not speak ing with great certainty with regard to the conversation with Mr. Strahan. My note to the solicitor for the prosecution, written at the time, will show what it was. By the Attorney-General—No Danish 5 per Cent. Bonds came into my possession. By Mr. Hawkins—l identify the proceedings of the Court of Bankruptcy in the case of Strahan, Paul, and Co., now produced. The Attorney-General objected to any cross-examina tion of the witness on that point, and the learned counsel (.%Ir. Hawkins) did not press it, but reserved to himself the right of again calling Mr, Bell for the defence. Mr. Lowden, clerk to Messrs. Fearen and Co., had searched for their securities. He called at the Banking house on 24th June, and there saw Bates, to the best of toy recollection. There were two gentlemen sitting with him at a table in an inner room of the Banking-house. I produced a list of Dr. Griffiths' securities in his hand writing, and told him Dr. Griffiths was anxious about him. I read the list containing 5,010 Danish Bonds. He said he could not say anything about them in particular, hut that if there were any they were in the hands of the fficial assignee. By Mr. James—l believe the person I saw at the bank was Mr. Bates. lam not positive, because I did not take special notice of the person. It might ha►e been Mr. Bates's son. Mr. Hill recalled and examined by Mr. Serjeant Byles—On Ist June, 1854, I purchased 5,000 Danish 5 per Cent. Bonds for the prisoners. There were seven 1001. bonds, Nos. 2,006, 5,289, 5,290, 2,556, 1,166, 1,607, 735 ; 1 bond for 5001., No. 355 ; 1 bond for 3001., No. 935 ; another for 5001., No. 378 ; there were 30 1001. bonds besides No. 5,373, 5,370 ; 66 run from 985 to 1,000, both inclusive ; then ten bonds running from 1,084• to 1,093 ; one bond 1,164, and another 1,165 ; they were paid for by them and delivered. This was the case for the prosecution. Sir F. Thesiger asked their lordships whether there was sufficient evidence against Strahan for him to ad dress the jury on his behalf' The indictment against him was in respect of certain bonds which were sum. bered and sold by Messrs. Foster and Braithwaite in March, 1844, but there was not the slightest proof that Strahan had anything whatever to do with that transac tion, nor was there any evidence against Strahan in respect of that charge, except the conversation stated by Dr. Griffiths, which referred, not to this transaction, but to a transaction which he said had occurred six weeks be fore the time of that conversation. That statement did not apply to the bonds in question, which were bonds sold in March, 1854. With the exception of the state ment made by Mr. Bell, the official assignee, that on the 16th June Strahan said the securities of Dr. Griffiths were either pawned or sold, there was nothing whatever to affect Strahan with the slightest knowledge of that transaction which took place through Sir John Paul and the money paid over to him. Mr. Baron Alderson said he thought there was evi dence against Strahan for the second counsel to address the jury, but he should not pronounce an opinion of its value. After the bonds had been disposed of Strahan said they had got them still. ' Sir F. Thesiger—There were Danish bonds re-pur chased by the prisoners in June, 1854, and no conversa tions took place until this year. The prisoners had no other Danish bonds than those belonging to Dr. Grif fiths, and he received the dividends on these bonds till 1854, when they were sold by Messrs. Foster and Braithwaite, who re-purchased Danish bonds to the ex tent of 5,0001., on which Dr. Griffiths had received the dividends since their purchase. Mr. Baron Alderson said he considered that was a question for the jury. These re-purchased bonds did not appear in Dr. Griffith? pass-book. Mr. James asked if that opinion would apply also to Bates. Mr. Baron Alderson Yes, but rather stronger against him. The AttorneyGeneral—Why were coupons purchased if Dr. Griffiths' securities had not been sold ? Sir F. Thesiger then addressed the jury for the pri soner Strahan, under, he said, feelings of pain and anxiety deeper than he had ever experienced, and it was not the less in consequence of observations which had been made by their lordships in reply to the application he had felt it a duty to make to them on behalf of Strahan. The Attorney-General, with that feeling of forbearance in pr3secutions that invariably characterised him, had in formed them that the gentlemen at the bar had for many years maintained a high position in society, and a cha• racter for the highest honour and integrity. He (Sir F. Thesiger) could not forget the position in which his client, Mr. Strahan, was placed. Possessed of wealth and station, and respected by numerous friends, and surrounded by an affectionate family. When he (Sir F. Thesiger) contrasted that former position of his with his appearance before them that day, he confessed he felt himself almost disabled for the task he was called on to perform. That alone did not create embarrassment in his mind, because in addressing himself to the defence of that gentleman he could not be insensible to the fact that for weeks and weeks there had appeared in the newspapers articles in which the conduct of these gen tlemen had been strongly argued, and every prejudice excited against s thern in the public mind. It was the boast of England that any person accused of an offence was to be recorded as innocent until the fatal verdict of guilty had been pronounced against him ; and yet these gentlemen had now for many months been brought to the bar of public opinion, and they appeared before them con demned by that voice, and they were to be supposed capa ble of forming an impartial j udgment on the case which has been brought before them. Juries were generally warned to dismiss entirely from their minds all they had heard before they entered the jury -box ; but it was utterly impossible, when once an idea had gained possession of the human mind, to do go, and every effort made to dis miss it only tended to fix it more firmly there. After observing that he expected that justice from them on behalf of his client they would expect if similarly . situated, and that they would determine the innocence or guilt of Mr. Strahan by the evidence that had b een that day produced,whatever hasty he felt certain th at hasty impressions might have been form e d by them they against the prisoner, would be removed b the circumstances. Hy an impartial review of Iva? not there for ono mo ment to deny that, in the mo n th of April, 1855, Mr. Strahan did unhappily, in a mo ment of pressure on the bank, ag ree to the applying of certain securities, deposited by theustomers of the batik, for the purpose of relieving the necessities of the hank at that pre s s ing momen t, nor to justify the act so done, but to w arn you from letting that have an improper in fluence on your mind in considerin g this case. The •- charge against hi m now was th a t o m i s appropriating the property of hi s customers i n t h e mont h of March, 1854, and he prayed their particular attention to the evidence to see if there w as any ev id ence whatever t h a t convicted Mr. Strahan with that particular act. The first ques tion they would have to decide was whether there was that proof which the law required that Strahan was privy to the act of the selling of the securities in question by Messrs. Foster and Braithwaite in March, 1854. They would recollect that the sale was managed by Sir John Paul, who received the money for them, and he entered the receipt of the money in the bank books after he received it, but that would be no evidence against Strahan that he was privy to the sale of them. The learned gentleman then entered at some length into the conversation between Strahan and Dr. Griffiths, and Mr. Bell, contending that the evidence showed that the only knowledge Strahan had was of the disposal in April of the repurchased Danish stock to Jrerend!'and Co., and not to the sale of the stock by Sir John D. Paul in 1854. He relied with great confidence on the section of the act in the 7 and 8 George IV., rela tive to the disolosures of bankrupts before commissidners in bankruptcy, rendering his client not criminally complained of, and whichprovided liable for the act person aggrieved, inasmuch as it allowed remedy for the him to come in and prove with the other credit ors . T he disclosure made by Strahan at the Bankruptcy C ourt Was most full and ample, so far as he was concerned, and the act in question made no difference with re gard to whether it wag a voluntary or compulsory die closure. H e as k e d them to closely consider what the t cha rge rea l ly o narrowly was against the prisoners , a nd watch the evidence by which it was sought to connect Strahan with i t, an d t h en h e s h oa ld h a ve no fear for the esilt Mr. Sergeant Byles, in a speech of short duration, after adverti ng t o the part the press b a d t a k en in (f )_ pre judging th e public mind against his client on account his chariti es and religious principles, addressed himself almost enti re l y to the learned Judges upon the law of the case under , the act enabling him to make disclosures as to the state of his affairs before the Commissioners in Bankruptcy, and the question was, was that diBclo sure.such a complete one as to absolve the prisoner from j the consequences of his previous act. The learned coup eel then adverted to the character of those disclosures, which he said were of the fullest character. Mr. Edwin James, upon the behalf of Bates, denied that he had any knowledge of the act of his other partner. What he wished to show was, that even if he bad ever gone to Dr. Griffiths' box he would have seen those bonds, and that would account for the conversation which took place with reference to this transaction. Dr. Griffiths was regularly paid his dividends up to the moment of the disclosures made by Sir John Dean Paul and Mr. Strahan. There was no evidence to show that he had any knowledge that the securities were not safe in the custody of the firm. At the conclusion of the speech of the learned gentleman, Mr. Baron Alderson said, let the case now stand un til ten o'clock to-morrow morning. The case was then adjourned. Bates was admitted to bail, but the other two were not bailed, and will remain in Newgate all night. POLICE INTELLIGENCE—Oct. 26. SOUTHWARK. EXTENSIVE ROBBERY o➢' WOOD.— William Basset, a labourer, was finally examined before Mr. Combe, charged with stealing three thousand nine hundred and seventy-nine bundles of wood, the property of Thomas Humpheries, of Bridge-wharf, Deptford, and Dockhead. The prosecutor said that the prisoner was in the habit of coming to his premises at Dockhead for wood for a customer named Lonsdale. On Wednesday evening, the 17th inst., about eight o'clock, the prisoner came as usual with his van, and after it was loaded witness asked him how many bundles he had on his van. He replied that he had 3,200 or 3,300. He had his suspicions about his conduct at the time, and he gave his directions to his foreman about him. The next morning the prisoner took his van away, when witness followed him to Thornton street, Dockhead, and gave him into custody for stealing the wood, which amounted to 3,979 bundles, and were worth about 71. William !fops, the prosecutor's foreman, said he re ceived information from his master on Wednesday even ing, the 17th, and on the following morning he saw the prisoner in the yard with a van laden with wood. He asked him how many bundles he had, when he said about 3,200. Witness told him not to leave the yard until he had gone to the wharf and received directions about the van leaving, and that he should want him to sign for them. He accordingly went to the wharf, and on his return to the yard he missed the prisoner and the van of wood. The prisoner had received instructions not to take any wood away without signing for it. William Fuller, 244 M, said he received charge of the prisoner, when he said that his orders were to load 3,500, and if there were more he knew nothing about it. He took him to the station-house, and afterwards counted them in the prosecutor's yard, when there were 3,979 bundles. The prisoner pleaded guilty, and was committed to Wandsworth House of Correction for three months, with hard labour. Sporting Intelligence. BETTING AT MANCHESTER.—FEIDAT.

LAMBETH.—The nest of inisanees, from Lambet' Church, by the river side, up to Vauxhall bridge, a nd os to Nine-elms, would be a di , grace to a city of barbarians , and I question very much if such people would allow such places to exist near their dwellings ; yet we, forsooth, who boast of being the most civilised nation under the sun, seem to revel in the filth and nastiness of such fac. tories as any person for the sake of gain may choose t° plant in our great highways, and thereby poison a w hole neighbourhood. Why should any tradesmen be permitted to carry on any business in the metropolis which produce stenches and smoke which are disagreeable to his neigh' hours. The site of these stench factories at L am beth might be converted into one of the prettiest suburbs et the town, if the whole was cleared from the river back to the railway, and the river front have a grand terrace of houses, and a wide road, planted with . trees, next the river. It would also be a great improvement if the footpath next the river, in tii9 front of the Penitentiary/ were paved, and a row of trees planted there the whole lengt h.—Correspondent of ,the Builder.
