GLOBE.—Four seats in Parliament are about to be vacated in consequence of the change in rank, and the appointments to offices under the Crown, which the death of the Chief Baron, Lord Abinger, has oc casioned. These new electiOns impose responsi bilities on the Liberals which they are bound to meet with decision of purpose, guided by sound discretion. The duty of exertion, for the sup port and advancement of the principles they pro fess, is obvious. Encouragement to employ every legitimate means for securing the objects they desire to accomplish, is found in the increas iing probabilities of success. To convert these proba bilities into certainties, promptitude must be shown in taking the field, and zealous co-operation exhibited, from the commencement to the close of the several con tests. If these essentials to a successful result be dis played, two, at least, of the vacant seats will be wrested from the Tories, and filled by good and true Liberals. Divisions of opinion upon minor, and fre quently mere abstract questions, in the Liberal party, have in many places given their opponents an obvious advantage, which they have diligently improved. These causes of dissension must be lost sight of in the hour of action—they must be merged in the absorbing determination to com bine against the part to which, in its main prin ciples of national government, they are, in common, opposed. The first step to be taken is to come to an understanding as to the candidate whom it will be expedient to bring forward in the Liberal interest. Though the gentleman in whose favour the majority of Liberals may concur, may not be absolutely approved by every individual of the party, the minority—if they be not blinded to the obli gations which devolve upon them, and deter mined to betray the common cause into the hands of the enemy—will forego mere personal pre ferences in the higher considerations of public duty. A Liberal candidate, as such, must be more acceptable to a Liberal elector than a Tory can be — for this obvious reason, that if there be any value in principle, those principles which distinguish a Liberal from a Tory are avowed by him. A pledge is thus given, that in performing the duties of a legis lator, he will regulate his course iu consistency with Liberal policy. No differences among Re formers upon political questions can be so great as those which separate them from the Tories, as a party. The former relate to mere circumstantials— the latter to essential, fundamental principles of go vernment.. If, then, the minor points be elevated into an importance which produces division, the result is inevitable defeat. The return of the Tory, in such a case, is accomplished—not by a positive majority of electors in favour of Tory principles ; but • be cause the Liberals were debating when they ought to have been acting in concert—squabbling, when 'each, in his appointed sphere, ought to have em ployed every legitimate influence in promoting the return of the Liberal candidate. Whatever defeats may be sustained in the approaching con tests, let not disgrace be associated with defeat. If the opposing elements prove themselves too powerful to be counteracted, they will be weakened by fair and honourable conflict. But if the Liberals betray the cause they profess, the party to which they are professedly opposed, and against the ascendancy of which they ought to strive, might and main, will derive encouragement from their disunion, and triumph from their renegade abandonment of obvious duty. The Anti-corn-law League is especially called upon, by the great body of the Liberal paety, to ab stain from interference in elections, where that inter ference is likely to divide, and thus cause the defeat of, the Reform candidates. This would have been the *consequence at Hastings, had the gentleman who was applied to by the Liberal electors of that borough con sented to come forward, and Mr. R. R. Moore had net retired. By indiscreetly pressing into boroughs a candidate of their own, the local co-operation essen tial to success will be diminished in energy, if not utterly broken up. The interference of a foreign body will be always regarded with jealousy, and in many cases will be resented with indignation. Thus ,the Liberals will be divided ; a Tory candidate, 'who otherwise had small chances of success, will be returned ; and the very commercial policy which it is the object of the Anti- Corn-law League to advance, will be retarded by the additional strength thus given to the monopolists in the House of Commons. Where there is a probe , bait) , of success—a probability ascertained by pre vious consultation with the Liberal leaders, and a careful investigation of the views entertained by the Liberal electors, upon the questions on which they make their exclusive appeal to the constituencies—l et the Anti-Corn-law League, by all means, make the trial. But where there is no reasonable chance of success, the obvious duty of the Corn law aboli tionist is to support the candidate whose views most approximate to his own, even though no expectation of his adopting the entire abolition of the Corn-laws be held out. To stand aloof from such a candidate, and thus secure the election of a Tory monopolist, is indefensible on any known principles of action, per sonal or prolitical—an exhibitton of folly which would be ridiculous, were it not fraught with mischief to the public interests. With reference to such places as Devises and Huntingdon, et id Benue omne, it would be better to leave them uncontested,' than to waste ex ertions, and hazard reputation and influence in public opinion, by engaging in the contests against such odds as involve the certainty of defeat. The Tory papers which take care to keep out of view the peculiar position of the localities, seize on such defeats as opportunities for parading a triumph, when, in point of fact, there never was anything worthy of the name' of a con test : and where the only object of the Anti-Corn law League in going to the poll was to disseminate principles, and provoke discussion by means of the speeches delivered by their candidate and his friends to the electors. While we admit the ultimate advantages which may result from this policy, we are not con• winced that it is the best. Lectures, public meetings, and the copious distribution of the publications of the League, would accomplish more good in such places, at less expense, and without the disadvantages which, under any circumstances, attend upon defeat. STANDARD.—The remarks which the arrival of the Three per Cent. Consols at par seemed to us to cart for, have provoked an answer, suggesting some useful considerations, though undesignedly, but an answer, as such, wholly unworthy of notice. The rise of the price of the British Securities is the re sult of two causes co-operating, both of them, in our opinion, affording ground for congratulation ; the first of them—the universal conviction of, the sol vency and good faith of the country—affording such ground, we suppose, by the admission of all ; the other, the increase of the general wealth of the coun try. It is upon this last point that it is attempted to raise an objection, and to this point, therefore, we shall address our few observations. First let us, however, explain the ground upon which we ascribe the rise in the price of the public securities to the increased wealth of the country. The rise is obviously the effect of the declining rate of in terest. Men will give 1001. for 31. per annum only be cause they cannot get inoie for it upon equally good security : this, we imagine, needs no proof. Now, the low rate of interest, like the low price of any other commodity, is the effect of the abundance of money (by which it is to be understood all at once durable and transferrable representatives of pro• perty) in the market, and the lowering of the rate of interest is of course the effect of the constant in crease of money. It is true that money mel , be thrown into the market, not on account of an absolute increase in its amount, but because of the inability of employing it more profitably eleewhere ; and, therefore, when we reason upoe an apparent increase, we are b oun d fi rs t t o i n • quire whether there has been a narrowing of the channels of enterprise and industry. The result of such an investigation in the present case will be quite satisfactory ; it will be found that all the channels of enterprise and industry are at this moment more amply and more actively, and, generally, more profitably filled (though profit is not the immediate question) than at any period of our history. We Lave more ships, more colonies, more manufactories, and better culti vated lend than this or other country ever before possessed ; and besides these we have in railroads, docks, foreign loans, &c., opened new and wide chan nels of trade unknown to our fathers. The in crease in money, therefore, of which the lower ing of interest, and the riee in the price of the public securities, afford an index, is a bona fide increase, not made at the expense of coin nierce, but made in company with great com mercial impioveinent and as a consequence of it. The rapid increase in the amount of money in a country is, however, according to Mr. Locke, the best proof of the prosperity of that country. It is of no con sequence,peo p a l e c o w u h n a t t ry m a a y s be he s absolute el a v i e n s o unt but sa y s t l .at great man, to the happiness of a ard r o e n l e a y . tive amount as regards their tero t f he 7 •, neighbours is im portant, for they who have least money must buy at the dearest a n d se ll at the cheapest among strangers, and the increas e or cl. • . diminution of money i n a country is a certain sign of prospe rit y or the reverse, as the case may be. Wtheref ore , 'we have arrived at such proof of ana traordinary increase, both absolute and Tele e (the relative is proved by the differing rates of foreign interest) in the amount of money in the country, as the state of the market exhibits, we have a fair occasion to congratulate our fellow-subjects, and we hoped that we might congratulate them without offence. There is, indeed, a question wholly distinct from the increase of the national wealth, which dishonest or short-sighteed controversialists, on both sides of the question that divides public opinion, are apt to confound with that increase— namely, the distribution and e plo ment of the wealth possessed.

"To be weak is miserable." A weak nation must be a wretched nation ; but a powerful nation is not neces sarily a happy one. The happiest country is that which is rich, and in which wealth is distribtited with the nearest approach to equality that the pre servation of order and the security of all men's rights will permit. The sacredness of the rights of property must for ever prohibit the inter ference of the State to produce this equality by active or direct means ; but nevertheless, though no Legis lature can properly interfere to correct the inequality in the distribution of wealth, the means of preventing that ir.equality growing to be an intolerable . evil are not beyond the reach of bold and wise statesmen. There is no doubt much to undo, for nearly all the legislation of the last half century, down to the New Poor-law, has gone in the wrong direction—has gone to make the rich richer and the pool poorer, until at last morality and common sense have been outraged by an arrogant claim, boldly asserted, for " the rights of capital," a phrase which, if it means anything, can only mean the right of the rich to profit at their own discretion by the privation, the extended labour, and the sufferings of those who are not rich. PROMISSORY NOTES. (From This Night's Gazette.) An account of.the Average Aggregate Amount of Promis sory Notes payable to bearer on demand, which have been in circulation in the United Kingdom, distinguishing those circulated by the Bank of England, by Private Banks, and by Joint-Stock Banks, in England and Wales, by the Banks in Scotland, by the Bank of Ireland, and by all other Banks in Ireland, and of the Average Amount of Bullion in the Bank of England, during the four weeks ending the 30th day of March, 1844, pursuant to the Act of 4th and sth Vic toria, cap. 50 : Mr. CLARKSON—Did you know these people as long as you swore you did ? Witness—l did not. lilr. GRAVES I —.DO you swear that the whole of the affidavit was not read over to yni by Mr. Pott's clerk ? Witness—l do not, think I would ha'e OCH to it, ul,- less it had been. Mr. GRAVES—ad you not know you were sworn to the truth of the affidavit, and do you mean to say that you took your oath to the truth of the contents of that affidavit without knowing what they were? Witness— I believe I did. Mr. GRAvEs—Do you not know you did? Witness— I did, but I thought it was only a matter of form to com plete what had been done before. Mr. GRAVES—Do you believe in a future state of rewards and punishments?—No answer. To Mr. PnINN (for Mrs. Dorey)—Had been intimate with the Richardses from the time they lived in Oxford street in the same house. Had often heard them say that property belonging to them had been lost. Miss Richards was very obedient to her mother. [The wit ness was frequently reproved by the Bench for the indis• tinct manner in which he gave his evidence.] Mr. Genii was re-called to prove the marriage certifi cate of Thomas Richards and Susannah Crene, at Fal mouth, in 1785. and also the certificate Gf baptism of Georgiana Richards on the 23d April, 1802. Mr. Frederick William Putt examined by the ATTOR NEY-GENERAL—Is a proctor in Doctors'-commons. The business in respect to the will in question was tran sacted with his clerk, Mr. Keene. To Mr. GRAVES—Did not read over the affi,lavit, or the draft of it, to the last witness, Griffin, but heard it read over to him. Witness, with his clerk, examined the affidavit with the draft. To Mr. WlLKlNs—Before Barber came to the office, all the preliminary part of the business had been com pleted, and an affidavit, which witness thought would have been sufficient, had been prepared. Witness saw Mr. Barber but once in the transaction, and considered his conduct strictly professional. He recollected that some certificates of marriage and baptism were-filed with the affidavits. To the ATTORNEY-GF—NERAL—The affidavits were read several times, for the purpose of comparing the affi davit with the draught, and also to make it clear to the partieS what they were going to swear. He could not say at this remote period how many times it was read. He would not be precise at this remote period. It was an ordinary transaction, so long back as 1840 ; hut it was an invariable practice to read the affidavits to the parties, and in this case more than usual care would be taken, as one affidavit had been sent back by the re gistrar two or three times. To the COURT—Mr. Barlier came to witness in conse quence of the difficulty of getting the affidavit passed. Edward Parker Wolfe had been acting as solicitor for Mrs. Dorey. At her desire he transmit'ed the state ment now placed in his hand to Mr: Freshfield, the so.. iicitor for the prosecution. ENGLAND.

THE WILLS FORGERIES The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said that there were pins of the statement which related to cases not now before the Court, and he thought it was desirable to m•ad only those parts which related to the present case. The COURT thought that it would be best for the pro secution to read those parts which they thought appli cable, and if the prisoners thought fit they could have any other parts read. The jury, however, would bear in mind that they should not reclive as evidence against the other prisoners anything that was said by one of theta in the absence clf the others. CRIMINAL COURT.—(THIS DAY. OLD COURT. (Continued from our Afternoon Edition.) On the re-assembling of the Court, the first witness called was John Hadling, examined by Sir J. BAYLEY—I am 71 years of age. I live in the parish of Crichton, in the county of Edinburgh. I knew John Stewart. I knew him all my life. He was a gardener, and worked with Mr. Paterson. lie worked with him. many years. Pat erson had three sons, John, William, and James. I knew John Paterson, the son, first, when he was about fourteen years of age. He went into the west country to some Nobleman's house. He was a gardener. John Stewart went from Crichton to Phantasie , and lived with Mr. Rennie. I never heard John Stewart mention any family that he had. Cross-examined by Mr. GRAVES—Stewart is a common name in Scotland. I never knew but one John Stewart. I never saw him at Phantasie. I never saw J. Paterson, the son, after he left Crichton. Re-examined by Sir JOHN BAYLEY—It wes about 50 years ago that John Stewart left Crichton. John Withersperne, examined by Mr. BoDRIN—I re sided at Kigdore in Scotland. I know the last witness. I lived once at Phantasie, in Preston Kirk. That was 52 years ago. I knew a John Stewart living there with Mr. Rennie, in the same service that I was in. He lived there a twelvemonth. Phantasie is 18 miles from Crich ton. Stewart was at Phantasie when I left. He had very few relations that I understood. He said he had one brother named James. Ile never spoke about any sister. I was very intimate with him. lie went over with me to Haddington, en the road to Crichton, when we went home fur our certificates, and we returned to Phantasie the same day. Ido not remember his showing me his certificate. He came to pay me visit before he left Phantasie. He left soon after that. I did not see him start. He was eight years older than I am. My age is seventy-four. He was about thirty when he left - Scotland. I have never seen him since. Joseph Lockhart examined by Mr. CLARKSON— I was formerly a gardener. I reside at Wimbledon. I was acquainted with John Stewart, a gardener t'n- re, between 40 and 50 years ago. He always was considered as a native of Scotland. He lived with John Shelley, Esq., at Wimbledon: John Paterson was working under him. I was intimate with him. I saw him occasionally until nearly his death. I knew him also with two Mr. Strafes uncle and nephew—one at Tyam, and the other at Port Garden. He used occasionally to call on me at Wim bledon. I once saw John Paterson's father. He came to see his son at Wimbledon, when he worked for this John Stewart, Old Paterson and John Stewart appeared to be acquaintances. I never heard John Ste Nan mention his family but once. He said he had no relations living that he knew of ; he never had but one brother ; he had gone to the Indies, and had not been heard of for twenty years, and therefore he supposed that he must be dead. He never, said that he had ever had a sister. Cross-examined by Mr. GRAVES—I never was at Mr. Strode's. - James Gudge examined by Sir J. BaveEv—l a 'am the clerk of the Journals of the House of Commons. This is the Journal of the House of Commons of May, 1839. It contains an entry of the appointment of Speaker. Charles Shaw Lefevre, Esq., was appointed Speaker. He continued as Speaker in 1840. (The Act of Parliament appointing the Commissioners for the Reduction of the National Debt was put in.) Mrs. Jane Burn—l reside at Falmouth. I know Mrs. Susanne Richards, who was married at Falmouth more than 30 years ago. I saw her once after she became a widow. She had just returned from Lisbon. I do not know Mrs. Dorey. The children were young when they left Falmouth. She had three daughters, Lydia, Su sanne, and Georgiana. Mrs. Richard's name, bets re she was married, was Crone. Her father was a soldier. Cross-examined by Mr. JAMES—I never spoke to her father. • J. 11. Genn produced the copy of the marriage certifi cate of Mrs. Richards, at Falmouth, which, however, was not received, as it had not been properly compared with the original. . Thomas Utiffin, a tailor, resided in Oxford-street same years ago. The prisoner, Mrs. Dorey, lived in . the same balsa with her mother, Mrs. Richards. The Saunderses also lived in the same apartments. A child of Mrs. Richards's died there, and the wife of witness assisted to lay out the child. That was the fit st of his acquaintance with them. He went afterwards to live in Gilbert -street, and subsequently to No. 34, Duke -street, Grosvenor square. In 1840, Georgiana Richards, now Mrs. l)orey, called upon him there. She esked him to go with her to the Stamp-office, to make inquiries respecting some property belonging to a brother of .her mother's, who had been dead thirteen or fourteen years, although her mother had been unable to do anything • about the property for want of money. Witness agreed to go with her, but said that he should expect to be paid for his time. She told him it would be necessary for him to Sign some papers, and she would call again when they were ready. At that. time she said nothing about-Cam berwell. He aftere ards received a message, in consequence of which he went to St. Paul's Church-yard, and there met the old lady. She then told him that the property she was going about.was left by his mother's brother, who had been a gardener with a gentle man in Berkeshire. The old lady was the person whom he had known . as Mrs. Richards, the mother of the prisoner Dorey. There' was a gentleman with her. She told him that a gentle man named Fletcher was the friend who advanced her the money to recover the property. They then went to the proctor's office. Mr. GRAVES objected to the admission of statements made by one prisoner in the absence of the other, who would be affected, by the statement. Mr. Baron GURNEY said it would be sufficient to con- BOARD OF GREEN CLOTH, ST. JAMES'S PA fine the evidence to facts, without those statements. Examination resumed—On going to the proctor's of- LACE APRIL 12, 1844.

Wi tnes a —l do not know that the whole of it was read over to me i ; MeatonenDuse.—Her Majesty has been graciously (Portions of the documents - selected by the Attorney- General were then read by the Clerk. These extracts were to the effect, that about fourteen Jr fifteen years ago Mrs. Dorey and her mother became acquainted with Flet cher and his family, when an intimacy of a friendly na ture was established. Fletcher after some time in duced her to go to the bank and sign a pa per, of which she did not know the meaning;; and ultimately by the promise of large sums, he in duced her mother to go to Camberwell and open a Chop in the name of Stewart,.for the pu:pose of carrying on the scheme which gave rise to this prosecution. At his request they induced .Griffin to take the part which he did take in the transaction.) Examination of Mr. Wolfe resumed—Believed that it was the wish of Mrs. Dorey to be admitted a whiles.. She was repeatedly cautioned by himself and the v;siting magistrate that any statement would be used against her. Mr. Wrrairts—Do you mean to tell me that I am not to believe my own ears? that an attempt was not made by a magistrate of the City to twist a statement from ber? or at least that you did not sav so? Mr. Wole— Mrs. Dorey told m e t h at t h e Lord - Mayor had wished her to make a statement; but the Lord Mayor publicly denied it. Mr. WILKINS believed that the Lord Mayor told the truth. Mr. William Christmas, a clerk in the Bank of Eng land, bad facilities of knowing the particulars relating to unclaimed dividends. Had conversations on the subject with Fletcher. Unfortuately did communicate to the prisoner the particulars of the case of Stewart's stock. Received 50L or loot. from Fletcher, after the stock was drawn out. Cross-examined—Knew it was against his duty t•) give the information to the prisoner. Did not communi cate to the solicitor of the Bank that he had done so, until after Fletchcr was in custody. The Lord Mayor (examined by Mr. CLA.RES3N) said that there was not the slightest truth in the statement, that he had attempted to extract any acknowledgment from the prisoner Dorey. This closed the case for the pros ,, cution. Mr. GRAVES said that it was now his duty to show that there was no forgery. It was not a forgery in the meaning of the statute, nor in the meaning of the indictment. It was not set forth in what way the bond was forged, but alleged generally that it was so, and they were therefore bound to prove that the whole was forged. According to the statute, in order that the document should be considered a forgery, it must be invalid ; but, in fact, this was a valid instru ment as against two of the parties, Fletcher and Griffin. Mr. Baron GURNEY—Is thatall you have to say on the point? Mr. GRAVES—There: were! other objections, to which he would advert at another time. The CottaT—You had better go on now. that the intention of M fra r id G w itA as li t E oo s rwemouoltde,thasenf:tit'ithe Treasury and the Bank were concerned, to bear out the Indictment of an intention to defraud either of these bodief. There was no such proximate intention as was necessary to be proved in order to sustain the present prosecution. There were no cases reported which were completely analogolis to this, but he submitted that there would be no doubt upon the law of the matter, that the intention to defraud the parties named in the indictment must be immediate. Mr. BALLANTINE briefly followed on the same side. The COURT, without calling on the Attorney- General, decided against the objections. Mr. GRAVES said that he wished now to mention, before his friend Mr. Wilkins left the Court, that he intended to claim his right to address the jury for the defendant Fletcher, in the order in which he stood in the indictment. _ _ _ Mr. WILKINS apprehended that as the senior counsel he was entitled to be heard first. After a desultory conversation, the Court were of °pia nion that the cases for the prisoners should be tak.n in the order in which they stood in the indictment, without regard to the seniority of the counsel. The Court then adjourned till ten o'clock to-morrow. NEWMARKET RACES. (THIS DAY-BY EXPRESS.) The Port Stakes. Lothario (Rogers) I Phlegon 2 Murat, Gaper, and Fakeaway also ran. Won by a head.

Tke Average Price of Brown or Muscovado Sugar, for the week ending April 9, 1844, is 345. 10d. per cwt., exclusive of the Duties of Customs paid or payable thereon on the im portation thereof into Great Britain. MARKET INTELLIGENCE. (From the London New Price Current of April 12.) SUGAR.—The market has still an improving appear ance for all descriptions of Sugar admissible for home consumption. Importers have refrained from pressing any kind for sale, and an increas- d desire has been mani fested on the part of the trade to do business. To-day there was-not a public sale of raw Sugar ; a strong de sire was shown by grocers and refiners to purchase West India, and rather higher rates paid, but the scanty supply at market operated materially-against business : same of the merchants have withdrawn their stunples from the market. The advance in prices for the week Is 6d for brown, and Is per cwt for yellow sorts. REFINED —A lively demand has prevailed for Refined Sugar for home consumption this week, and further ad vaneed rates paid. To-day large parcels of Refin.-d goods were taken by the home trade and higher rates paid ; brown lumps fetched 765. and stanlard lumps 77s 6d to 78s per cwt. For all other artices the market is firm. MAURITIUS.—To day a good business was transacted 'privately in all descriptions, and the rates paid are 6d per cwt above those of the last public sales. EAST INDlA.—Holders of Foreign East India gene rally stiel show firmness. Manilla has declined Gd to Is per cwt. To-day some parcels of Bengal Sugar were sold privately, and the rates paid were 6d to Is per cwt above those of the last public sales. FOREIGN.—YeIIow Havannah is held with firmness, but the private transactions this week have been upon a small scale only, fine at 22s to '23s, good middling and rood 20s 6d to 21s 6d, and middling 19s to 20s per cwt.

To day Antigua sold at .27s 6d, Demerara 25s to 25s 6d, and low Tobago at 22s 6d per cwt. CGFFRE.—Of West India none has .been brought to public sale, and the triflingparcels disposed of privately have been upon easier terms; there is a desire on the part of the dealers, by whom the stock is nearly all held, to realise, as the accounts fr.-en Jamaica are highly favour able for the coffee crop. This afternoon the demand was limited for Ceyl.4l, and 58s to 59s per cwt is the nearest value of good ord.. In other sorts of Coffee little was d ne privately ; at public sale 16 puns of Berbice were taken in at 84s fur middling, and 73s to 75s for fine 'fine cord ; 50 bags St. Domingo went at 36s 6d for fine fine ard brown, and 35s for sea-damaged first class, 31s for secon , f, and 29s 6d per cwt for third ditto.

(Before Mr. Baron GURNEY, Mr. -Justice WILLiAms, and Mr. Justice 11.14tmE.) (The examination of Edward Keine, continued from. our Third Edition of last night.) Examination resumad—Mr. Fletcher asked me if I could procure another surety, and, as I thought there was no risk, I consented to procure a surety to join with Miss Stewart and Griffin. The duty paid Has 451. I prepared the bond. I afterwards prepared another affi davit, the first one being insufficient. I prepared the second one from instructions received from Mr. Fletcher, and afterwards from Mr. Barber. I accompanied Mr. You, with the administrairix and Fletcher, to the Sur rogate. I afterwards accompanied Fletcher and the lady to the Prerogative office. My brother-in. law was to be the joint surety. The lady signed the bond. Griffin was not there. On the 3d o: August I paid the duty, and therefore should say the bond must have been com pletely exe•lite.l before tha da'e. I brought my bi other , in-law to the office, and saw him execute it. I lod.:ed the cl ,, curnents slip the clerk of the seal. . He. then sent to me, and objected to the sufficiency- of the affidavit. The registrar declined to receive the first affidavit. A letter was written to the administintrix on the subject, and requiri ng f urt h er i nstructions. I again saw Fii and received instructions to prepare the second affidavit. Fletcher a yid he understood there was a box in the pos sesion of the clergyman of Great Marlow, and the clerk of the seal directi.d that application should be made, to ascertain if the box contained any will. Fletcher said h e un d erstood there was no will. The affi davit was drawn and again objected to, and Mr. Fletcher sent Mr. Barber. He was informed what was required, and from him we received instructions. This is a draft of the affidavit objected to by the registrar, and after-; wards perfected in red ink. These are the written ill structiona Lreceived.from Mr. Barber. The draft of the ariHavit is signed by E ieaeeth eittevavt awl 'llion-las Grittin. 1 required the , 7./ i.t• to t ho draft, because it was a peeeeer ca c, and iri order thei, the parties might be co g niz an t o f th e f acts , and becau se the registrars will not in general look at draft affidaeri_ts• Fletcher brought back th e a ffi : lavit signe.l appl . 'ov ew I submitted it to tho clerk of the seal and the registrar, I received it back with the objections from time to times and at length it was perfected. Application.was ma de to the adininistratrix to apply to the clergyman of' Grell Marlew in order to ascertain if there was any will. (The letter of Mr. Pott to Mrs. Stewart on this subject, vtlu e ; was found at Barber's, was p u t i n an d rea d.) Fletch e r called again, and was informed of the circumstances, sos" promised that - application ehould be made.. On a pre' vious occasion he had said he would send his solicitor? Mr. Barber, a very shrewd clever man. After that Mr' Barber called. The circumstances were explained to him, and he said he would furnish us with the necessary instructions. Mr. Pott said he was haPPi.., t e e see a professional man, and as k e d w ho DI Fletcher was. Mr. Barber said h e was a man ° high respectability and large prospects. Mr. Barbe l called a second time and brought the written instruction and the letter, with the burial certificate. The affida. lll was then prepared, laid before the registrar, and svor 11 : This is the affidavit. There were also some certificaw' of baptism brought by Mr. Barber, and annexed to affidavit. (The certificat es o f b apt i sm were put in an t read. One was the bapti sm o f J ames , t h e son o f Hobert and Jane Stewart, 1761, and the other of Elizabeth, daughter of Robert and Jane Stewart,: born 1765. B ed ; were from the parish of Marylebone.

The elderly woman .and Griffin cae s ,,, e ~ together to swear the aff i d av it. I d o not remember that Barber came upon the occasion of the swearing the affidavit. The administration was rent to Mr. Barber. Cross-examined by Mr. GREAVES—Fletcher acC i f panied the old lady the first time she came to the I have been speaking rather from what is my ordirl practice in cases of admini s t rat i on t h an f rom an y re°°, lection of what passed. Th e affidavit was read over ~' Griffin. He appeared to understand it. He asked °_ 6l questions. There were ma n y p ersons present w h e n O e affidavit was sworn. The clerk of the seal is the attesting' witness. Cross-examined by Mr. WuxiNs—l did not see sl i f thing of Barber until after the second affidavit wesr; quired. I should not have su ppli e d Fletcher rails', security if I had not b e li eve d hi m to b e a respeCts" 0 man. The transaction appeared to be conducted ill IL proper manner. I did n o t go t o M r . Barber's office o9 ' • Cross-examined. by Mr. Janus-Giving a bond mere matter of form. At the conclusion of this witness's examination, 81141 Court was adjourned till this morning.
