of append for the dividends, and reflT:ng to a person the name of Jones. The jury must judge whether there was any other person bearing that name in this transac tion, except Fletcher. Miss Stewart stated that sh© Was informed of her brother's death through the kindness of Mr. Jones, who had afterwards informed her that he was going to America, since which time she had never seen him. The Learned Counsel then re ferred to an affidavit made by eiriffin, stating Cunt tie had known Elizabeth Stewart and her brother, and stating various circumstances respecting the two. Now he proposed- .to call. Griffin as a wit ness ;. but he , not wish them to attach more weight to his statements than fairly belonged to testimony given under ouch circumstances. He then referred to a correspondence which passed be tween the prisoner Barber and Mr. Strode, of Great Marlow, with whom John Stewart had lived, the avowed object of which, on the part of Barber, was to obtain possession of the original stock receipts of John Stewart, in order that his sister might be able to obtain the property of the deceased. Mr. Strode stated in reply- that the receipts in question were in the hands of his solicitors, Messrs. Pickering and Co., of Stone-buildings e to whom he referred the prisoner. He was not wittiness, treat Miss Stewart as the sister of his late gardener, being perfectly acquainted with his his tory. On the Ist of October, before any of the stock was transferred, Mr. Barber saw Mr. Pickering's clerk, and put down a number of questions for Miss Stewart to answer. Nothing was heard from him until the month of Novem ber following, when all the stock had been transferred. The transfer took place on the 20th of October. The Learned Counsel then proceeded to state at length the circumstances connected with the transfer of the stock. He then said that the prisoner Georgians Dorey had made a statement ac knowledging her share in this transaction, which be proposed to put in as evidence. If the parties were innocent, they would be able to give some account of the sister of John Stewart. The jury would have to consider who Mr. Jones was, and whether there was any other Mr. Jones except Fletcher. The case was one which called for a grave, serious, and full defence on the part of Barber. He had no interest on the part of the Crown except the just, temperate, and impartial administration of justice, and he felt convinced that whatever might be their verdict, the jury would dis charge in a temperate and satisfactory manner the impor tant duty which they had undertaken. John Wm. Seaton, a clerk in Doctors' Commons, pro duced a will and bond connected with the transfer. Dr. Robertson deposed to the swearing before him of the affidavits of Elizabeth Stewart and Thomas Griffin. George Bennett, a clerk in the Stamp-office, Somer set-house, put in the original copy of Elizabeth Stew art's affidavit. John Powell deposed to having attested a bond signed by a female and two sureties. Beadon, a clerk in the Long Annuities-office, at the Bank of England, produced the transfer-book, show ing the transfer of the stock of John Stewart deceased, to the Commissioners for the Reduction of the National Debt, on the 11th of October, 1836, and its subsequent transfer into the name of Elizabeth Stewart. Charles Dawes Lewis, another clerk in the Bank of England, produced the unclaimed dividend book, con taining the dividend warrants of the stock from 1826 to 1836. John Knight, Secretary to the Bank of England, proved the execution of the transfer by himself. Henry Hyatt, examined by the ATTORNEY-GENERAL —Witness said he kept the Greyhound Inn at Great Marlow. He went there on the 22d of July, 1836. In May, 1840, a person came to his house to ask him if he knew John Stewart. He remained there between six and seven hours. He said that his business as to find out the relatives of John Stewart, who died at Great Marlow. Witness did not know John Stewart himself, but, after some conversation, he recom mended him to inquire of some old men who knew him. The person who called upon him said he came from the Lord Chancellor, and he gave his name, before he left, "Mr. G. Jones, No. 34, Little Guildford-street, Russell-square." Witness took him to an old man of the name of Winsor, thinking, perhaps, that he might have known Stewart. He took him, also, to a man of the name of Holmes, to another of the name of M'Lean, and .te:Helmes's wife, at Portgarden, e here he was told that Stewart used to live. They could not hear of any relations belonging to Stewart. The people told Fletcher that there never were any relations of Stewart's except a brother, who went to sea many years before, and was supposed to have gone to America. '!etcher made memorandums as he went along. Ile %% out to a grave-stone in the churchyard and took notes there. By the J DOE—They found the grave-stone of Stewart. Po:swam:lined by the ATTORNEY-GENERAL—When Fletcher went away he requested witness to get all the information he could respecting the relations of Stewart, and to send it to him, saying that he would well reward Lim. He proposed to write to him, but witness told him he had better correspond with an old man named Winsor, as ho knew more of Stewart than himself. In about , a fortnight after the gentleman who stands in the corner (pointing to Barber) also came down, and stayed about the same time. When he arrived he asked me if I did not know a person of the name of Jones. He said he ceme to inquire about a relative of Stewart, who died worth - a, good deal of property, for which they wanted to find the right owner. Ile gave his name Clarence Peckham, Esq. He said Stewart had a great deal of pioperty in Chelsea. Ile said same-thing about property in the Sinking Fund, but that was gone, about GOOL Jones said the same before. He Said it died with him. I think I learned that from Jones' conversation before, and also from him. I took him round to the old people who;told him about Stewart, and that he had a brother, who it was supposed had died at sea. The, last man we saw was M'Lean. He came to my house. Mr. Barber was in the front room, and came into the bar to talk to him. I asked Mr. Bar ber where the property was at Chelsea ? He said it was roar the College. I asked him if he knew Mr. Eg gleton, a surveyor of taxes ? He said, " No." He said he would not trouble me further, but would go out and see the old man again. Before he left Marlow, I told him I was coming to Lon don. He desired me to collect all the information I could, and call on him. I did so. I went to i 2, Nelson square, and asked fur Clarence Peckham, Esq., and saw Mr. Barber. I told him I could not hear of any rela tions, except the brother that was gone to America. Cross-examined by Mr. GRAY—This was four years ago. Jones gave his name to several old people. 1 went with him to any old people I thought might know any thing about Stewart. Crosse-xamined by Mr. WILKINS—I cannot say if there was a brass plate on the door in Nelson-square. Mr. Barber never came to my house, except on that one day. I believe the writing produced is mine. I do not know if there was a bill made out for what he had at my house. Ido not recollect if it was wine negus. M'Lean had some grog. The second entry in the bill handed to me is three sixpetinyworths of gin and water. I should think he went away about five. He was in a hurry, and had my horse and chaise to go to the railway. My uharge 'for that would be five shillings. .Mr. WILKINS—Look at that document, and re fresh your memory. Witness—lt appears to be my writing. I adhere to my statement, that it was within a fortnight or three weeks after that Mr. Barber came down. It was not .in October that Mr. B ar b er ears down to Marlow. It was not more than a fort bight or three weeks after Fletcher was there that Barber came down. My attention was first directed to these matters cm the 14th January last. When Barber cern., he asked me if a gentleman named Jones had not been there. Mr. WILKINS—Did he not ask you if some one had sot been den to inquire about Stewart, and did not you say, Yes, Mr. Jones, a tall, dark man? Witness—l did not. He asked about Mr. Jones, and told me he and Mr. Jones were one firm. I thought they were Chancery lawyers. There is no mistake in the conversation. I had no difficulty in finding out 52, Nelson-square, and I had not been there long before I saw Mr. Barber. He suet Clarence Peckham, Esq., and I asked for Clarence • Peckham, Esq., not for Mr. Peckham. lte-examined by the ATTORNEY-GENERAL — I made a memorandum of the name in my book the day he was at Marlow. This is the book, which I hand into the Court. Mr. Baron GURNEY—It must be used merely to re fresh his memory. The entry is, " The address of the gentleman Clarence Peckham, Esq., 32, Nelson square:' 't he ATTORNEY-GENERAL—DoOS that bill, put into your hands by Mr. Wilkins, relate to Mr. Barber? Wit ness —The date of that bill is a day that I never saw Mr. Barber. lam quite sure of that. The Court then adjourned for a few minutes for re freshment. On the re-assembling of the Court, William Winsor was called and examined by the ATTORNEY-GENERAL—I live at Great Marlow. lam a labourer. I received a letter from person of the name Jones. This maybe it. It is addressed a to W. Winsor, baker, West-street, Great Marlow gave the letter to Mr. Hyatt. This letter may b e the me Cross-examined by Mr.lVrea t io s e_f Tuts; r ecollect e ither of the prisoners. i recollect a gentlemanoe not - after e c -o -tg-, to me. Some time after I had the letter ; some time, the second gentleman came. Mr. Baron GURNEY—Was it before or after you had the letter that the second gentleman came ? Witness— • I cannon tell. M r . WlLltnis—Try to recollect, old gentleman, it is of the greatest consequence. Was it before or after you hard the letter that the second gentleman came. Witness —1 think it was before. I cannot tell what makes -me think so. I. took the letter to Hyatt a few days after I received it. Mr. Grattan examined by the ATTORNEY-GENERAL - I am acquainted with Fletcher's handwriting, from his having kept his accounts at the London and Westminster Bank, at which lam accountant. I should isay most decidedly that the . letter produced was his hand writing. Cross-examined by Mr. WILKINS--We always consi dered Fletcher a respectable man. (The letter addressed to Winsor was then put in and reads It was signed by Jones, and requested Winsor to ascertain where the person Stewart had lived before he etune• to Mr. Strode, and also what part of Scotland he c ame f rom; an d state d that the writer had discovered that Stewart had a sister; and desiring that the answer might be addressed to G. Jones, care of Miss Ilawkes, Little Guildf or d- street.) Mr. WILKINS (handing paper to witness)—Whose writing is that ? Witness —It but I have a doubt about it. is like Joshua Fletcher's, William Holmes—l live at Great Marlow, and am a labouring man. 1 have lived there six years. I know IL Hyatt, that keeps the Greyhound. man to me about four years ago, to He brought a make inquiri e s ab ou t Stuart He brought another person make the same inquiries. I think the further r ind time to one - ber) was the person he brought theeeco n d time. - (Bar not know the one he brought the first tim e .

I told him-I thought Stewart bad no rslations. Cross-examined by Mr. WILKINS—I cannot tell how long it was after the first one cline before the second came. It might have bean one month—it might have been five. I cannot tell. James M`Lean—l live at Great Marlow, and have , done so for seven years. In 1840 I saw a person who came with Hyatt to inquire about Stuart. About a fort night or three weeks another came to me to inquire. He was brought by H. Hyatt. I should net know either of them. I knew John Stewart in his life- , time while he was in the service of Mr. Strode. I have never heard Stuart say where he came from. I told the first person that came down that I never heard of any relations of Stewart whatever. Nothing passed about what countryman he was. I said nothing more, for I knew nothing more. Stewart was a close man. On the second occasion I said no more. Cross examined by Mr. WILKINS—I cannot under take to say how long it was before I saw the second person after the first came. Ido not think it was so long as a month. Robert Loosly—l have lived at Great Marlow some years. I knew John Stewart. In 1840, Hyatt brought a gentleman to make inquiries about Stewart. I should not know the gentleman again. He asked me about Stewart. I told the gentleman that Stewart had told me he came from Scotland. I told him I had beard Stewart say he had a brother, and I said the same and nothing further. About a fortnight after, Hyatt brought another gentle man to me, who made the same inquiries, and I gave him the same answers. I should not know either of the gentlemen. Cross-examined by Mr. BALLANTINE—Stewart was a close person. It is four years ago since I had the con versation, and I cannot say distinctly what took place. I will not swear to it, it is so long ago. Mr. Baron GURNEY—What will you not swear? Will you not swear you told them that Stewart came from Scotland? Witness— Oh, yes; I recollect telling them that. Cross-examined by Mr. Wiemets—l am 70 years of age. I have been questioned about this by Mr. Weir, Mr. Freshfield's clerk. I think it was three weeks after the one gentleman left that Hill came, but it is so long ago I cannot recollect. I will not swear that one did not come in spring and the other in autumn. Sarah Hawkes—l am in the service of Mr. Lock, 5, Tavistock-street, Bedford-square. In 1837 I was lodging at 35, Berwick-street, Soho. I lodged with a person named Richards. The prisoner, Mrs. Dorey, was living with her. She was at that time Miss Richards. I lived in the same apart ments with Mrs. Richards and her daughter for a year and a half. I have seen Saunders and his wife once. Mrs. Saunders was the sister to Mrs. Dorey. After that I went to reside at 16, Little Guildford-street, Russell square. I Staid there a twelvemonth. I then went to 24, in the same street. I was then an embroideress. While living there the prisoner Dorey called on me. She - told me she was livin at Mr. Wybrow's, a music seller, in Rathbone-place. The house was called the Temple of Apollo. She said, " I have called to ask a favour; it is to know if you will allow some letters to be left to your address under the name of Mr. Jones ?" I said, " Yes." She said, " Don't you remember me and my mother speaking of some property that was coming to us ? She said Jones was the lawyer. One letter came, which I took to Mr. Wybrow's, at the Temple of Apollo, and left at the shop. I told Mr. Wybrow to give it to Miss Richards. I received a note some time afterwards, roughly folded up, with the same address. I took, that to Wybrow's. I did not see her for two years after that. Cross-examined by Mr. JAMES—Did not know Miss Richards until I went to live with her in January, 1837. She had a counter at the Pantheon. I under stood that she supported her mother. Her mother was living with her at Wybrow's. I never opened any letter, or saw any opened. The mother had told me that she had lost a deal of property abroad, for her husband had died at Lisbon. She said he had been a merchant. She seemed to be a respectable woman. By the COURT—When I saw her at the end of two years, she was in deep mourning. She said she was in mourning for her mother. Emma Hartwell.—l am the wife of John Hartwell, 2, Mead's-row, Westminster-road. In the year 1840 I was a servant with Mr. Bradley, a grocer, 1, Southampton terrace, Camberwell. I went there in 1840. I re member the prisoner Fle•chcr coming to look at some apartments in the year 1840. They were on the first and second floor, and he said they would do for the lea) , he had taken them fr. It was in the beginning of spring. Soon after Mr. Fletcher came with Mrs. Fletcher, and brought an old lady with them. They stayed an hour or so, and then Mr. and Mrs. Fletcher went away, and the lady remained. She was there some months. She was old and feeble ; she was rather tall and thin, pale, and had very weak eyes. She bad the gout in her arm and hand occasionally. She did not go out a great deal. She generally walked with an I umbrella to support her. She generally wore a half mourning ;own. Occasionally she wore a black ' silk gown. She wore a dark shawl with a mix ture in it of all colours. I saw Mr. Fletcher sometimes twice and three times a day while she was there. He used to come sometimes between four and five in the after noon, and sometimes between ten and eleven in the morning. I knew he lived near, but did not know exactly where. Mrs. Fletcher used to come, but not often, and Miss Fletcher came once. Letters used to come to the old lady, addressed to Miss Stewart. The Fletchers never mentioned her name. They used to call her the old lady. I have taken the letters. She took them, and kept them. I know the prisoner Georgians Dorey, and have seen her come to visit the old lady occasionally. They sometimes went out together. The gown produced (by Forrester) is the pattern of the one worn by the old lady, but the pattern is washed out very much. I saw the gown at the Mansion-house, aryl recognised it. It was brought to me first. Mr. Fletcher came occasionally to tea with the old lady. Mrs. Fletcher came once. Georgiana Dorey was gene rally accompanied by Mr. Fletcher. I did not know when she came that there was any con nexion between her and the old lady. I do not know that she visited any one but the Fletchers. She made no acquaintances in the neighbourhood, and no one came near her except the Fletchers and Mrs. Dorey. She was sometimes absent some hours. She generally paid her lodgings herself. I cannot fix the time that she went away. William Wybrow-1. live in Rathbone-place. Where I formerly lived, in the same place, was called the Temple of Apollo. I know the prisoner Mrs. Dorey. She called to see some lodgings at my house in 1838. One of my daughters had given her lessons on the guitar. She took the lodging at the time she had the stand in the Pantheon. Her mother and two nieces came with her, and they continued to lodge at my house until the summer of 1840. Mrs. Richards appeared to be about 75 years of age. She was rather tall and thin ; very infirm and pale ; she had weak eves. She walked feebly, and used an umbrella to assist her as a walking stick. She wore's, "dark cloak. In 1840 Mrs. Richards left the apartments. It was in the summer. Miss Richards, the neice, continued with in She said her mother was going to Camberwell for the benefit of her health. I heard her say once or twice that she was go ing to Camberwell to see her mother. I am not sure whether Mri. Richards ever came back. I think she did. Miss Richards and the nie,,es, then Misses Saunders, leftine in Nov. 1840. I did not know of Miss Richards where she was going to. Ido not re member any letter being brought. Cross-examined by Mr. Wimutis—There was a pri vate door. The person who occupied the lodgings gene rally answered it. Sometimes one of my daughters an swered it. I cannot say that I have seen Mr. Barber there. I saw a man named Griffin at the Mansion- house. My son said he thought he had seen one of the parties come to the house. My son did not point out Griffin. I said that I thought I had seen Griffin there. Cross-examined by Mr. GUEAVES—I can distinctly swear that Mrs. Richards was in my house in the early part of the year 1840. Sydney Hampden Wybrow.—l am the son of the last witness, and at present I am a clerk in the Post-office. I resided with my father in 1838 and 1839. I knew the prisoner Dorey as Georgiana Richards. I recollect her taking lodgings at my father's in 1838. Her mother and two nieces lodged with her. They came, I think, in 1838, and remained about two years, until 1840. I have often seen the old lady. She was old and infirm, and used when she went out to carry an um brella. She always wore a dark gown. The old lady left three or four months before the others. I have no recollection as to the date. I understood that the old lady was gone to Camberwell for the benefit of her health. I heard that from the niece, and not from Mrs. Dorey. lam not positive that the old lady ever returned. I appear to have a recollection of the prisoner Barber as having called there on several occasions. I think I have let him in once or twice. Whenever I let any persons in, they asked for Miss Richards. Cross-examined by Mr. WILKINS—I have been in the Post-office four years. lam22or 23 years of ar;e. I remember at the -Mansion-house standing l at th bottom of the stairs to see the prisoners 0.0 by. did not point out Griffin to my father. I ° did not point out any one to him. He asked me if I knew any of them, and I said I believed 1 - knew the tall one. I think my father believed I meant Griffin. I saw the prisoners at the bar, and pointed out Barber, without knowing any of their names. When my father came out, he said, I thought you meant Griffin. I might have said I meant the tallest. I will not undertake to swear that Barber was ever in Rath bone-place. I speak of my belief. Mrs. Dixon—l am the wife of Seth Dixon, and live in Crown -court, Dean-street. I was engaged on the 10th April, 1841, with a Mrs. Elliott, as charwomen, at 24, Dean-street. I have been E in the habit of acting there in that eapacity ever s i nce . When I first went there the prisoner Dorey and her mother t were lodging there. A niece was living with a Miss Saunders. Mrs. Dorey said they had onlyeni— come mr . th before I came. I assisted as charwoman t o them a m The old lady died in that house in the latt er end a of 8 :1 - 84 un 2. e the same year. Mrs. Dorey left at Christ mas , assisted an hour or so now and then before the old ladyalt- mli r death. I assisted the prisoner more frequently She used to go out of town after her mother's death, she said to Bristol. She went away three times, and stayed a month or six weeks. She used to visit at Camberwell. She told me she visited a physician of the name of Fletcher there. I saw the prisoner Fletcher at 24, Dean-street. I answered the door to him. I knew William Saunders and his wife. They occasionally came there. Mrs. Saunders once came on a visit for a month. Saunders came while the old lady lay dead in the house. Fletcher asked for Miss Richards when he came. She was not at home, and he left a message for her and her niece to come and dine with him next day. The old lady appeared about seventy-three or seventy-four years old, and rather infirm. She was subject to the gout in her hand. She used always to wear black. I saw her once in a cotton dress. After her death Mrs, Dorey gave me a gown of her Trio! her's. This (the gown produced by Forre,,ter) is hat remains t.t . it. 1 gave it to 2u:rester. Cross-examined by Mr. GREAVES—I was not ex anain,d before the Lord Mayor. I was applied to to give evidence in March. Cross-exatnined by Mr. J.ixEs.—The Saunders live in Bristol. M-. D. M'Pherson—l am a schoolimast:T at Cul lendar, in Scolland, and was session clerk there in the year 1840. I remember receiving a letter purporting to come from a person named Stewart. I think I received three letters, but only retained one. I think I must have destroyed the others. The letter produced is the one I have kept. Mr. Grattan was re-called, and state] that he be lieved the letter to be in Fletcher's hands riting, but he could not be certain. Had he received such a fitter he sheuld have acted upon it. It appeared there was some disguise about it, but it was the character of Joshua , Fletcher's writing. The letter was then put in and read. It we.; signed " E. Stewart," and was dated Nov. 10, 1840, 1, South ampton row, Camberwell, and alluded to a previous letter dated Nov. 3, requiring the marriage certificate ofJohn and Elizabeth Stewart, 1756, inclosing a Post-oftic.: order for 2/. Mr. M•Pherson recalled—That was the third letter I had received. Mr. G REAVES —What did you do with the others ? Witness—l believe I must have burned them. Mr. G REAVES—Do you recollect what you did then at all ? Witness—No. I received the first about a fortnight before this letter came. My attention was directed to the subject last January. 1 searched all the placts where I usually keep papers. By the ATTORNEY-GENERAL—I searched all placed thoroughly where the session papers are kept. The paper produced is my answer to one of those prior let ters. It is the answer to the second letter. It is di , vete& Mrs. Stewart, 1, Southampton-ten ace, Southamp ton-row, Camberwell, and the post mark is 9th Octo ber, 1840. Mr. Barnes—l am solicitor to the Registrar-Gener*l for Births, Marriages, and Deaths. In consequence of these cases I went to Mr. Barber's offices with Mr. Bircham on the first day of the examination at the Mansion-house. I went to the office of Barber and Bircham, and was present when this letter was found. It was in a tin box up stairs with the parchment letters of administration in the case of Stewart. The statement of Mrs. Stewart was one of the papers ; also a letter of Aug. 15, 1840, from Mr. Pott, Doctors'-commons, and the proctor's bill of costs in the administration of J. Stewart. They were all delivered to Mr. Freshfield. (The letter of M'Pherson was then put in and read. It was dated the 2d of October. It acknowledged the receipt of the letter, and inclosed a certificate of the marriage ofJohn and Janet Stewart. The letter stated that the writer could not comply with the request which had been made to him to alter the documents, as by the laws of Scot land he should be liable to punishment, and to be de nuded of his office.) Mr. Barnes, cross-examined by Mr. WILKINS —I found these documents tied up in the usual manner in which they would be tied up in an attorney's office. e4Mr. M'Pherson recalled—The desire of the writer of the second letter was that, in the certificate of the mar riage of John and Janet Stewart, I should change the name Janet into Jane, and the reason given was, that Jane was the word used in England for Janet. On receiving the first - letter, I had written to state that I had found the entry of the marriage of John and Janet Stewart, and then came the letter asking for the certificate, and suggesting that I should make the alteration. The name - of Stewart is common in the parish of Callendar, and several parishes around. It is the name of the family of the Earl of Moray. Cross-examined by Mr. GREAVES—The date (4' the certificate was January, 1756. Ido nut recollect the words of the letter. By Mr. Baron GURNEY—Applications are ffequently made to me for certificates. 1 never on any former oc casion recieved 21. for one. Edmund Keine—l am clerk to Mr. Potts the proctor. I remember Fletcher coming to our office in July or August, 1840. He was accompanied by an old lady. He gave instructions for letters of administra tion for the effects of John Stewart deceased. I asked him who he was recommended by. He said he knew Mr. Potts. He did not mention his own name. He said the female was the sister of deceased. There is a printed affidavit entered at the Stamp-titee, in which there are blanks for the name of the person deceased. I made inquiries of him to fill up the blanks. This was done in the presence of the elderly female. She took no part in it. I prepared the usual document showing the relationship of the propoied adminiAratrix to the deceased. The document produced is the one which I fillei up from the instructions of Fletcher. Cross-examined by Mr. GREAVES—I never saw Flet cher before, but I saw him three times afterwards. I have been at the Mansion-house, but I etas not ex amined. Mr. Potts, my employer, was. (The Stamp-office affidavit was then put in and read. It purported to bs the affidavit of Elizabeth Stewart, sister of John Stewart, deceased. The property was sworn as under 1,5001.) Examination resumed—l told Mr. Fletcher that a bond must be entered into, and that sureties would be required. He gave me the name of Thomas Griffin as one of the sureties. Fletcher was told an affidavit would be required to account for the delay. I accordingly pre pared this affidavit from Fletcher's instructions. (The affidavit which purported to be the affidavit of Elizabeth Stewart was read. It stated that deponent had been residing in New York, and had not heard of her brother's death until the month of May preceding.) Examination resumed—Mr. Fletcher asked me if I could proctre another surety, and, al I thought there was no risk, I consented to procure a surety to join with Miss Stewart and Griffin. The duty paid was 451. I prepared the bond. I afterwards prepared another affi davit, the first one being insufficient. I prepired the second one from instructions received from Mr. Fletcher, and afterwards from Mr. Barber. I accompanied Mr. Pott, with the administratrix and iFletcher, 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 of August I paid the duty, and therefore should say the bond must hare been com pletely executed before that date. I brought my brother in-law to the office, and saw him execute it. I lodged the documents with 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 administratrix on the subject, and requiring further instructions. I again saw Fletcher, and received instructions to prepare the second affidavit. Fletcher said he understood there was a box in the pos session of the clergyman of Great Marlow, and the clerk of the seal directed that application should be made, to ascertain if the box contained any will. Fletcher said he understood 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 ara the written in structions I received from Mr. Barber. The draft of the affidavit is signed by Elizabeth Stewart and Thomas Griffin. I required the signatures to Le placed to the draft because it was a peculiar case, and in order tht.t the parties might be cognizant of the faAs, and beeau-e the rogistrara will no', in general look at drat', atlda, its. Fletcher brought back the affidavit signed as approved. I submitted it to the clerk of the seal and the registrar. I received it back with the objections from time to time, and at length it was perfected. App ica.ion was ma le to the adwinistratrix to apply to the clergyman of Great Marlow in order to ascertain if there was any will. (The letter of Mr. Pott to Mrs. Stewart on this subject, which was found at Barber's, was put in and read.) Fletch-r called again, and was informed of the circumstances, and promised that application should be made. On a pre vious occasion he had said be would send his solicitor, Mr. Barber, a very shrewd clever nun. After that Mr. Barber called. The circumstances were explained to him, and he said he would furnish us with the necessary instructions. Mr. Putt said he was happy to see a professional man, and asked who Mr. Fletcher was. Mr. Barber said be was a man of high respectability and large prospects. Mr. Barber called a second time and brought the written instritc!ions and the letter, with the burial certificate. The affidavit was then prepared, laid before the registrar, and sworn. This is the affidavit. There Were also some certificates of baptism brought by Mr. Barber, and annexed to the affidavit. (The certificates of baptism were put in and read. One was the baptism of James, the son of Robert and Jane Stewart, 1761, and the other of Elizabeth, daughter of Robert and Jane Stewart, born 1765. Both were from the parish of Maryieboni , . The affidavit of Elizabeth, Stewart was then put in and read. It stated that Elizabeth Stewart had not heard of her brother's death until she heard of it from a Mr. Jones, who had come home with him from America.) I never heard Fletcher mentioned by any other name than that of Fletcher. The eldeily woman and Griffin came together to swear the affidavit. I do not remember that Barber came upon the occasion of the swearing the affidavit. The administration was sent to Mr. Barber. Cross-examined by Mr. GaE4vEs—Fletcher accom panied the old lady the first time she came to the office. I have been speaking rather from what is my ordinary practice in cases of administration than from any recol lection of what passed. The affidavit was read over to Griffin. He appeared to understand it. He asked no questions. There were many persons present when the affidavit was sworn. The clerk of the sealis the attesting witness. Cross-examined by Mr. Wil.xiss —I did not see any thing of Barber until after the second affidavit was re quired. I should not have supplied Fletcher with a security if I had not believed him to be a respectable man. 'The transaction appeared to be conducted in a proper manner. I did not go to Mr. Barber's office at all. Cross-examined by Mr. JAMES—Giving a bond is a mere matter of form.

Swinburne, the Shun 7 man who was committed for trial on the I6th ult., upon a charge of fo.lony preferred against him by an u.:for tunate glr', i!tune•l Keelty, „horn and afterward ,, aban loned, was twodght before Mr. Bingham, h‘ Sergea,it Allen, of the 12th Lan , eN, who charg,d him with being a de.efter from '.hat regiment. The s?rgeant stnt,d that he :i.ttn led on the p-e -vious dly at the Central CrimMal Court, when the p r i soner ',Nos tried and acquittd on the above charge, and, pursuant to the instructions he had received from his superi.u - s, he arrested him ‘43 a deserter. The prisoner abscon , lel from the regiment, was then sationed ;,it Dublin, in the month of March, 1843, buz he had it st.rted on three former and as a c onfirmatoly proof of his idi•ntity, the letter "D" would be found braided under each - of his arm pitS. In addition to the offence of desertion, the pri soner had committed several petty acts of theft in the regiment, which would, in the first instance, form the subject of inv,•stigation before a inlitary tribunal. The prisoner, who altnitted all the facts alleged against him, ~ , ‘ T,s committed to the House of Cortee tion, preparatory to his removal to the head-qualrers of his reAitnent. ei,ERKEN WEL , . INFANTICIDE.-- Elizabeth Willed, a y( ling c;irna , -;, wbo seemed to be labouring under exeesive and resi ling at No. 1, Orchard -court, Orchard-street, Kingsland, was charged with endeavouring to conoeal the birth of a female child Such was the charge on the police sheet ; but there seems to exist the same reason for charging her with the concealment of the birth of two children as of one. It appeared from the evidence that the prisoner was in the service of a tradesman at Shacklewell up to about seven months ago, at which period she returned home to her father in Orchud-court, and continued to reside with him up to the time of her apprehension. She supported herself and her parent by needle-work. Her size increased in the manner of women enceinte up to the 7th of March last. On the m:_xiiing of that day Mrs. Gibbons, the landlady, saw blood on the step-ladder leading from the prisoner's room to the story beneath • and she traced the marks of blood to an aperture over the door of the privy. which had been nailed up for a long time. In the privy, through this space, she saw the body of a child, which a man named Robinson pulled out with a drag, and which on examination was found to be fully grown, and newly-born. Suspicion Imme diately fell on the prisoner, who at first denied all knowledge of the matter, and said that if she knew the author of so wicked a report, she would have him punished. Mrs. Gibbons then observed on her di minished size and delicate appearance, to which the prisoner made no answer, but walked away. Wood, the beadle, was then sent for, and the prisoner wps given into custody. An inquest was h?ld on the body ; before Mr. Baker, Coroner, for Middksex, and the jury returned a verdict of " Found dead in a pricy, but no evidence to show whether or not the child was born alive."' The prisoner was apprehendel, but in consequence of her delicate state of health was sent to Hackney workhouse. On her way thither she said "I have .committed the act ; oh, may God forgive me !" Three days after the first child was found, the privy wqb opened, and the body of a seeonl female child having nearly the same appearances as the fortner, was found buried in the filth. A second in quest was held on this body, which was adjow•ned„ and finally a similar verdict was returned as in the former case. Mr. Wm. Bernard Robinson, a surgeon, residing in Shaeklewell-lane, ShaeklewAl, deposA that he made a post mortem examination of the body of the child first found, and was of opinion that it had breathed, but he could not positively ~Nve,ir that it had breathed after birth. The surw•on added, that the unfortunate woman was in a - deep consutnption. Pace sergeant thlt the prisoner ac knowledgA the offence in his' presence. She :tatecl that she kid been seduced by a young man, who slighted her, and afterwards got, married to another. The prisoner, when called upon fur her defence, did not say a word, and was reminded. Two women, named Green and Shawe, were charged with being concealed in the robbery of a large number of pieces of woollen cloth, silk, satin, and velvet, the property of Mr.. Lamb, a woollen • draper, residing at 100, Holborn-101. Mr. Humphries appeared for the prosecution, and Mr. Robin son for the prisoners. It appeared from the evidenc,, that in November last Green, who was cook to Mr. Lamb, was dis charged from his service. Since her discharge infor mation reached him that Green had been disposing of his property, and on searching the house in which the prisoner lived, in Crown-court, Goswell-street, a number of keys were found, one of which opened Mr. Lamb's wareroom, in which the mo-t valuable of his goods were deposited. There were also small pieces of satin, silk, cloth, and velvet found there which the prosecutor ideni:ied. It was further proved that the prisoner hail got several pieces of the stolen cloth manufactured into fashionable cloaks, and the velvet into bonnets, by a milliner named Chelford, in Little Sutton-stri et. Most of these things were pawned at the office of Mr. Tingly, in Greek-street, Soho ; and his assistant produced them. They had been pawned for less than half their value. The prisoners were remanded. A gentleman named Smith, was charged with riding a horse through Woburn-court, it being a thoroughfare for foot passengers only; also with assaulting Mr. Wil liam Chaplin, No. 6, in the court. It appeared from the evidence that on the previous evening Mr. Smith rode his horse through the court. Mr. Chaplin followed him as far at Great Russell-street, and there seized the horse. Mr. Smith struck him with his whip to disengage the animal from his grasp. The MAGISTRATE said that Mr. Chaplin had no right to follow Mr. Smith such a distance, and then seize his horse in the manner he had seized him. At the same time Mr. Smith had acted contrary to law in riling his horse through a foot thoroughfare, and thereby :objected himself to a penalty of 40,4 Mr. Smith said, at the time he entered the Court be was not aware that it was only a foot thor oug hfare. The MawsTRATE said ignorance of the taw was no palliation of the offence; he would fine Mr. Smith ss. The fine was paid at once. UNION-HALL.

NORTHERN CIRCUIT. —Liverpool, April 9. CIVIL. SlDE.—(Before Mr. Baron RoLFE and a Special Jury.) OLIVERSON AND ANOTHER V. BRIGHTMAN AND OTHERS. The hearing of this cause was resumed at the sitting of the Court this morning. Mr. Byrn, the resident partner of the house of M•Viccar and Co., at Macau, was examined at considerable length, respecting the state of relations between this country and China at the time the Penang reached the country. He stated, in effect, that it was impossible to laud the cargo at Hong kong, as there were no warehouses there, and that it would have been imprudent, as it was not a place of trade. The only p or t w here the goods could have b€en ch,posed of was Canton ; but a large portion of the damaged cargo was sold at Hong-Kong. At the time the goods were transhipped to the James Laing, there was no intention of again putting them on board the Captain Joseph Lyas, Penang. the master of the Herald, a Queen's ship, which went out to China in 1840, was next called. He stated that there never was any lt.claration of war, on the part of England, againit the Chinese— that Hong-Kong w ai a m ore preferable Waco for lying up than Macao, and that in May, 1840, the vessels i)f war were withdrawn from the Canton river ; but that, in the latter end of August or September following, th e witness returned with the Herald. This closed the plaintiffs' ease. Mr. KELLY said that the few observations he hail to make were in substance addressed to his Lordship. Having attentively co n s idered the whole of the midence beforehand, IP' was quite satisfied that no real qu-stion of fact would arise or he in disput , between the part:es which c ,- )uld properly be left to a jury, and now that the plaintiffs' case . had come to an end, he begged to say that there was not one single point which, with any benefit to either party, or with any view to the administration of This prisoner, who is but 21 years of ,age, was rext clene-d with the wilful murder of her aunt, Beiay Sealey, who livi,cl also at the seine place, by strangling her, on the Bth of December last. Mr. Carey and Mr. Merewether appeared for the prosecution, and Nfr. Kinglake for the prisoner. • The deceased 4 Betty Seeley, aged 79, lived in the rieht- hand wing of a dilapidated farm-house, at Pinek •ney, under which roof the prisoner lived. This farm- house stands in a line with the village road. The prisoner lived in the front part of this wing, and the deceased aunt in that of the back, to which there were two ways' of entrance, the one from the village road, and the. other from a foot-path leading to Bishop's Lydiard; and at this back entrance th. re was a • a nail barkin, occupied by cattle, and a barn in the rear, which formed three sides of a square. Betty Seeley had from time to time money and things stolen from her, and in such a manner as to convince her that it must be the act of some teTson, who well knew the locality, entering by means of false keys, or in some other clandestine manner. Deceased received parish support from the Kingston parish; which money was payable every Friday. On Friday, the Bth of December, she d. puteel some per son to receive her money for her, beine determined, if possible, to detect the thief. Accordingly, she left her home, as usual, on pretence of goine. to Kingston, when she pursued the road leading to Kingston, till out of sight of the prisoner. who was at home when she left.. She then returned by a footpath thromeh the barn and barkin to her own door. She . most have taken her arm-chair and placed it in a dark closet opposite her entrance door, and then remained there in it till the robber arrived—for in this chair she was found dead the next Saturday, the 9th of December, at eight o'cleck - in the evening; by her son, John Seeley, his wife and son, who had been fetched by the woman who went for ,the parish pay on this Friday, and in consequeßee, toe.- of her having repeatedly failed in gaining admission th t a 4: These witnesses found that the old woman's throat - was pinched, for finger-marks appeared thereon. Her hands and arms were scratched. . Her tongue protruded fie , n 2 her mouth, and other ap pearances, which led the medical gentietnan, Mr. WeL•h, surgeon, of Taunton, to say that she died by strangula tion. Her bonnet and clothes clearly indicated same foul play. It also appeared than her daughter.in-law had sent her, some few days before, an octagon phial bottle, the marks of which were visible on her c;othes, but that the bottle was gone. Evidence was given, that shortly after the time when it is supposed that the old woman had left, the prisoner insisted on some young man leaving her house, as though she wished to avail herself of the supposed absence of the old woman. In the earlier part of the day Gabriel Porter was in the prisoner's house with her when Mr. Far thing, the landlord of the premises, passed in his car.: riage. That on this occasion the old woman hailed him,. and he stopped, and as she was speaking to him prisoner said she was talking about her, and that she had taken some sticks front her own garden hedge that day, and had the old woman seen her she would have told Mr. Farthing of that too. It was then alleged that she said to - a Young girl, with whom she had been picking apples at Mr. Farthing's, that all old women, such as Betty Sealey, the deceased, ought to die, and that she for one would help. Evidence was next given to prove, that as soon as it was supposed that she had committed the offence, she went to a place called Etheridge, to Jane Bond's, the mother of her young man, where she re mained some hours, and went again next day. That when the policeman searched her box on the following Sunday, a bottle, like the said octagon phial-bottle, was therein found. It was attempted to be proved that a trap-door was discovered in one of the prisoner's up stair-rooms opening into the deceased old woman's apart ments, and that the opening was free from dust. Several prisoners from Wilton gaol were then brought forward, who deposed to some strange statements mark by the prisoner, confessing her guilt. The Jury, however, hiving retired for half an hour, returned a verdict of "Net Guilty." COLONEL STODDART AND CAPT. UONOLLY. Captain'Grover Irs received Dr. Wolff 's journal up to Feb. 6. Ile left Taiireez on Jan. 20, and, afters peril- Ms and painful journey, reached Tehran, in perf•ct health, on Feb. 4. Fifty-six miles from Tehran he was obliged to write to Colonel Shiel, petitioning that five hores might :be sent ti his as,istance. Colonel Shiet instantly sent the required horses, and wrote in the kindest terms, inviting the Doctor to take up his quarters at the British emba;sy, and promising every asAstsnee. The Doctor says, " Could anything be more kind than this ? He (Colonel Shiel) has also detained in his house Meshede Rajah, who was three years ser vant to Colonel Stoddart, and by whom he (Meshede Rajah) was sent to Caubul. He had been imprisoned at Bokhara. I have tak,-n him into my service, and he-will accompany me to 11.khara in about ten days time. I have met with the greatest kindness and hospitality from Colonel Side), awl the gc.ntlem.-n attached to the embassy, and I wish this to be understood in the strictest sense of the word." Dr. Wolff fur'her says, " Colonel Shiel told me that he had seen the Ambassador from Bukhara, who told him that he did not believe that Colonel Stoddart or Captain Conolly !"had been killed, but that they were kept in prison Dr. Wolff had seen Count da Medetn, the Russian Envoy , and received from him , an account of hie interview with the Ambassador, which differed but little from that published some time ago in the papers. Tke Doctor has not vet been to visit the Bukhara Ambas sador, as he wishes previously to be presented to the King of Persia. Dr. Wolff says Colonel Stoddart's servant told him that " people had been frequently confined for five years at Bokhara, and believed by all the inhabitants to have been killed and then suddenly had made their appear ance again." The Doctor then says : "So much is certain that no one at Bokhara has wit nessed the execution of Stoddart or Conolly, and my de termination therefore of going straight to Bukhara is unshaken and unabated. I shall now begin to draw money on Drummonds in good earnest, for I must appear respectably at Bukhara, as the Great Mullah from England, described by the Sultan, and the Seik at Islam ; but as the Mullahs among the Mahommedans live with great simplicity, I shall do the same. " I shall not neglect to make search for the other British officers at and near Bokhara, and every Sepoy I might pick up." The King of Persia evinces the greatest zeal; be has already written to the Umeer Bokhara, claiming these unfortunate men as British officers of distinction, and urging him to send them immediately to Tehran with all tc;e honours due to their exalted rank. His Majesty has also ordered a Mehmandah to accompany Doctor Wolff to the Bokhara territory. Such is the result of the powerful aid so kindly af forded by the Earl of Aberdeen; without that aid Dr. Wolff never could have reached Tehran, and we may now confidently expect that the fate of these officers will not lung remain a mystery. CURIOUS ANTIPATHY OF A HORSE.—An accident arising from a novel and singular cause, but, fortunately, not very disastrous in its consequences, occurred on Sa turday, in the liamtnersmith-road. A fine spirited horse attached to a gig, which was waiting at a gentleman's door, suddenly started off in the wildest fright, without any apparoit reason, the road being perfectly clear at the time, and continued to run for some distance, until stopped by the gig-wheel coming in contact with the kerb-stone, when he %vas secured without having received or occasioned much injury. The cause of his alarm appeared afterwards to have been a van that was ap proaching behind an ang ie of . the road, containing the giraGs from the Surrey Zoological Gardens, which were being removed to a llew place of exhibition in the nekh bourh,od of th, , aceidAtt, rite horse havi!m• discoi , ered them probably by some peculiar odour, bef ore P they be came visible to the eye, had with instinctive antipathy endeavoured ,to get away as fast as possible from the obnoxious vicinity. justice, could be submitted to a jury.

Upon inquiring at Guy's and St. Thomas's hospitals at the above hour, we !mind that no other sufferera had been received up to that time than the number we re ported at ten o'clock, nor have any other dead bodies been dug out of the ruins., The names of the parties who have been received - at . the above establishments, variously contused. and the majority of ihem seriously injured, are as follow: GUY'S HOSPITAL—WiIIiaM Spcsr, John Matthews, William Mullins, WiLiain Lush, M'Ewen, Robert Prendergast, George Honey. • ST.

Upon inquiry at Guy's Hospital, we found that the men whose names are given - abeve, were not so much in jured as was anticipated. Upon examination it was dis covered that the collar bone of one of the men was broken • and that two of the ribs of anoiv.r man were fractured. The others had suffered but slightly, their injuries consisting of slight scalp weunds. One of the men was so far recovered at the time these inquiries were made, that he was enabled to walk home. It is expected that the whole of the men conveyed to Guy's Hospital, will the exception of the two mentioned above, will be able to return to their employment in the course of a day or two. The man who was conveyed to St. Thomas's Hospital has been examined, and found to be but slightly injure d. having received only a bruise on the forehead. When brought in be was insensible, and it was reported in the neighbourhood that he was — dead. This, happily, ha' turned out to be an unfounded rumour ; and there is every reason to expect that he will be able to restnne his work in a•few days. It ~.as slated at the h •spitals when our reporter left, at three o'clock, that only oue man had died, and that he was killed on the spot where the acci dent happened. At the Bricklayers' Arms statian, how ever, they state that two were killed, namely, Edward Mae and John Ryan. The buil dug in which the acci dent occurred was this morning examined, and it see:ns that the unfortunate occarretice was caused by the ken rafters of the roof being of too slight construction for the breadth of the roc`; which is very great, so that when the larg, heavy slates were placed upon it the weight bare down the roof in the centre.. It was not the pillars upon which the roof is supported that gave way, but the roof itself. The whole of the rubbish was cleared away in about few hours, but the workmen have not yet resumed their labours. EASTER FETE AT CirvzsEA.—An attempt has ben made this season to convert the grounds of Cremorne House, Chelsea, into a scene of rivalry to Greenwich Park, under the management of Mr. Nicholson, of Garrick's Coffee• house celebrity. The amusement's provided for the company, com prised pony races, a sham - election, wizardism, mesmerism, music, dancing, poetising, vaulting, and laughing gas, so as to combine, as the bills announced, " science and amuse ment." When the shades of night prevailed, gas and oil in various brilliant devices threw their light on certain favoured spots, Chinese lanterns glimmered on others, whilst many " lovers' walks" were left in gloom, whence issued the sound of laughing voices, and proved that the darkness was not a void. An open air concert formed part of the evening's en tatainments, in which several vocalists (male and female) sang a variety of songs adapted to all varieties of taste. We will not attempt to individualise' the performers, for they were but dimly seen through the cloud of tobacco smoke which vainly struggled with gas leaking from the pipes for posses • sion of the olfactfay nerves. The result of the " thousand guinea fete," as it was called, has not, however, been suc cessful. 'Science and fun at Chelsea, with one shilling for admission,- cannot compete with fun by itself at Greenwich, and nothing to pay ; as Mr. Nicholson was compelled to ac knowledge on Wednesday evening, when returning thanks 'company for their attendance. • MELANCHOLY DEATH OF THE SON OF THE LATE MR. PETHER, THE ARTIST.—On Wedneslay an inquest was held before Mr. Higgs, at the Red Lion, Princes-street, West minster, as to the death of Arthur Pettier, aged seventeen, whose death was caused under the following melancholy eir • cumstances :—Miss Hannah Pether, the sister of deceased, stated that the family resided at York Cottage, Battersea fields. On last Tuesday her brother was chopping some wood withavery heavy hammer, when the top came ofl, and in attempting to replace it, the heavy iron end fell on his finger, and caused a severe lacerated wound. He at once went to a surgeon, who dressed the finger, but as he got worse on Sun day, by the advice of Mr. Boulton, he was taken to the hos pital. Mr. Morgan, the house surgeon, said that the de ceased, when admitted, had a slight wound on the-little finger of the left hand. He was then suffering under lock jaw, and although every attention was paid to him, he got worse, and died of tetanus on'Tuesday morning. He was quite sensible to within half an hour of his death, and said the injury was caused 'by himself accidentally. Verdict, " Accidental death." SCAFFOLD ACCIDENT IN HAYMARKET.— FOUR PERSONS INJURED.—Wednesday morning a painful de gree of alarm and excitement was created in the neighbour • hood of the Italian Opera, under the following appalling and distressing circumstances :—Several workmen have for the last few days been engaged in repairing and beautifying the colonnade on the north side of the Italian Opera, and imme diately opposite Messrs. Feuillarde's Hotel. On Wednesday, however, the scaffolding upon which the men were at work suddenly gave way, and they were precipitated with it on to the pavement beneath. The porters and others from the hotel immediately rushed to their assistance, and in a short time the poor fellows, who were four in number, were extricated, and each of them was found to be more or less in jured. No time was lost in conveying them to Charing-cross Hospital, where they were duly and promptly attended. The General steam Navigation Company's mail packet Giraffe arrived off Bladtwall, from Rotterdam, at nine A.M. yesterday, with the Datil mails. CURIOUS BEQUEST.—Thottias Fletcher, who was Latinist to Queen Elizabeth, gave directions by his will, that his coffin should be opened every seven years and exp ised to public view. His request was complied with several times, and the last amount of the ceremony is in an old newspaper, dated the 3d of November, 1734, in which it is said that, " Yesterday his body was ex posed to such persons as had tickets to enter the church. The body is enclosed in a paste, not unlike the composi tion which surrounds the ,Egyptian mummies ; and his bones would be quite invisible, had not a portion of the. upper crust been broken ha." 14 THE RULING PASSION STRONG," &C.—The pro verbial good taste of George IV. has even descended to his equestrian statue in Trafalgar-square, for it " turns its back" upon the National Gallery. —Punch.
