After Anderson had got the money he came out of the house, and we all three, with the fourth man, met in the same street, awl we walked to the Eastern Counties Railway, where Anderson was to meet another young man to send off with the other check. I and Anderson went into an eating house opposite the station, Seward and the other man waiting close by. Anderson met the young man near the platform of the railway and took him with us to the eating house. He was sent with the other check to Messrs. Barclay. I followed him and saw it paid, partly in 101. notes, and the rest in money. It was part of my duty in these transactions to see the parties back with the money, and I did 89 in this instance. The young man who got the money in this instance was going over London-bridge instead of returning to the railway station. I went to him, touched him on the shoulder, and asked him if he was not going the wrong way. (Laughter.) He replied he was going to his late employers to see if Anderson had sent for his character. At this time Anderson passed by a name which I can't recollect. He changed his name each time he sent a check. I said to the young man a gentleman is waiting for yen at the railway. He has a particular way of trying his servants before he employs them. (Laughter.) I then returned with the young man towards the railway station, and on our way we met Anderson, who went alone with the young man into a public-house. When he came out he and I met Seward, and he gave to him the money he had received from the young man. We all went to the neighbour hood of Hackney road, when Seward said he would take the notes and sell them to a man named Hall. Seward left, and Anderson and I, with two other men, waited at a public-house in a street in the Hackney-road. I should know the house again. Seward subsequently returned and brought back gold, which was divided amongst the five. Seward, on that occasion, said he knew Hall well, but be did not say who he was. I don't' know Peter-street, in Hackney-road, by name. After this Seward said that if ever I heard of anything or knew anything I was to communicate with Saunders, and that if he had anything he would communicate with me through Saunders. I never knew where Saward lived. My address was in Cottage-lane, City-road, and I lived there in the name of Hawes, with a young woman who passed as my wife. I was occasionally visited there by my aunt, Elizabeth Haydon, who lived near King's cross. Whilst I lived there Seward visited me three times. Seward on these occasions said he had some business more to do, as on the former occasion, if I would like to join him. I did so, and apartments were taken and a check was presented on Messrs Smiths, Payne, and Smiths. When Saward visited me he showed mesix or seven cancelled checkson Smith, Payne, MANSION-HOUSE,—JAN. 3. and Co., issued by a person named Ade ; be also showed me something like thi s ( a c h ec k f or 90/.), sa yi ng th at [The following appeared in p a rt o f our i m p ress i on o f Saturda apartments had been taken, s o th a t th e c h ec k s m i g ht b e y :—] THE SAWARD FORGERY GANG.—Thi s a ft ernoon , the City-road, and near th e Sp or t sman , behind the church, further examination tn.

Mr. Joyce said a more unfair proposition never was made, as no such order was made when Mr. Sleigh opened his case. Sir R. W. Carden said if such an application had been made to him on either side he should have felt himself bound to accede to it at the beginning of this inquiry, and it was therefore his duty to do so now. Mr. Joyce said be would not oppose the application, because his own case would stand upon its own merits, , but in Mr. Sleigh's case he knew it was necessary to have the witnesses in court. Mr. Sleigh thought such observations should not be made, because, had Mr. Joyce applied in the first in stance, the witnesses would not have been allowed to be present. The witnesses having been ordered out, Mr. Joyce said he felt this inquiry had been protract ed, and a cloud of witnesses had been called in support of the case against Mr. Barber, but which he would show was one of the most flimsy character ; and feeling, from the manner in which this prosecution had been con ducted, it was a malicious proceeding on the part of this self-styled public prosecutor, who would ultimately be made to pay for the gratuitous, mischievous, and tin merited attack upon his private character. With regard to the history of this case, he might mention that Mr. Potter, without saying a word to any one, went to the police-court, and, unasked—he was going to say almost encouraged—made a statement, and afterwards made use of the criminal law as an engine to crush and defeat Mr. Barber in the vindication of a just right. When he sought to relieve himself f r om th e s ti gma o f suc h a c h arge, th e course pursued by Mr. Potter had been adopted by him for the purpose of closing his mouth in another court and before another tribunal. With reference to the evidence, it did not show that the persons alleged to have been defrauded had complained or had any desire to prosecute, and that fact alone ought to arouse the magistrates' suspicions. It had been said that Mr. Potter was a public benefactor, for taking these pro ceedings, when, in fact, it was not until an action for defamation was brought against him for a slanderous statement made by him in the justice room, and from that moment Mr. Potter had the strongest personal interest in the course he had taken in this matter, but Mr. Potter was labouring under a mistake if he thought a committal by the magistrate would deprive Mr. Barber of all redress by civil action. With regard to the testimony of the prosecutors, he would convict them out of their own mouths, and he was surprised that any one iu a wealthy place like the City of London should have en tertained such a charge, when it was proved that the poor had' been amply provided for by this institution, until Mr. Potter's exposition, to an extent beyond any other institution of the kind. It had been shown that 1,300 persons had been fed on the Christmas-day, and he should prove that 1,800 were fed on that day. In spite of Mr. Potter's vindictive proceedings, be should show that this was a substantial institution, and if any one were liable to a prosecution it would be the com mittee, who were ready to meet any charge which ma lignity might think proper to prefer: This institution was founded under the name of the " City Hospice," under the auspices of Sir F. Kelly, the then Lord Mayor, and other influential gentlemen in the City. Mr. Cochrane was most indefatigable in the management of it until his death, when the instivution changed its name, and underwent certain other alterations. Mr. Barber was re-appointed under the new system as ma nager, and his wife matron, with 1001. a year, rations, and apartments, which were not unreasonably high terms. That was the arrangement, and all donors of a certain sum, by virtue of such gifts, became vice presidents. The servants of the establishment received board, lodging, and wages ; and therefore the beer they received was only in accordance with their engagements. No one could suppose that anything in the shape of donations should be sent for any specific object, when it was obvious that donations, whether in money or goods, were forwarded for the general purposes of the institution. When it was shown, as it would be, that Mr. Barber had the welfare of this institution so much at heart that he had relinquished his claim for salary for the last two years, in order that the destitu• tion and want of his fellow -creatures might in some degree be alleviated—(applause) —it was preposterous for the prosecution to assert that this institution was not 1 a public one, when in fact it was notoriously so, and it was shown to be so upon the very face of the circulars of this society. As for the tale of the suet and flour, it was only reasonable to suppose the servant thought it was bad, and therefore sent it away, and although Mrs. West, the pie-shop proprietor, said it was sweet, it should be remembered that she sold the pies. With regard to the law of the case, the charge being for ob taining goods under false pretences, it should be shown that the false pretence referred to an alleged existing fact, whereas in this case the goods were obtained upon a promise to do something in the future, which was not a false pretence. 1 Sir R. W. Carden recommended Mr. Joyce to confine himself to the facts. Mr. Joyce said he wished to draw the magistrates' attention to the law, and afterwards he would come to the facts, for it was upon both that the magistrates would have to decide. Mr. Sleigh said he had proved that these goods were obtained under certain and divers false pretences. Mr. Joyce said he was not asking the magistrate to come to an immediate decision ; but he felt it his duty to neglect no point that would be favourable to his client. Mr. Martin said the part relied upon in these charges was, that the defendant was making colleztions of money and food for the purpose of giving the poor a good dinner on Christmas-day. Mr. Joyce said then he would prove that that part of the case was equally rotten with the rest, as that inten tion on the part of the committee had not been proved to be untrue. But, as he said before, he did not rely upon any technical objection, as he would prove beyond a doubt that the beer was given to the poor, and that n , part of it was consumed in Mr. Barber's family. He next came to the evidence for the prosecution. Cooke, the first witness, was dismissed for misconduct; and be wrote to his late master (Mr. Barber) threatening him, if be did not take him again into his employ ; and after that, of what value was that man's testi mony ? In that letter, which had not been read before, C, oke complained of the injury done to him by discharg ing him from a situation which be anticipated holding throughout the season. The next witness, the man Bright, left with the coat of the institution upon his back, and having money in his pocket, applied for relief to the union, for which be was sent to prison for seven days. Tubs man had avowed himself to be a chest and a liar, and his only excuse was he was drunk, and knew nothing about it ; but how much was the evidence of each a man worth ? The very fact of his being drunk is corrobrative of the evidence for the defence, as it was for drunkenness that he was discharged. The boy Flude denied having received any money for suet ; but that was the only doubt thrown upon his veracity, for it would be proved he did have some of it. That, however, being twelve months ago, may have slipped his memory ; but his evidence actually assisted the defence, for he swore that Mr-. Bar• er said the suet was bad, and such would b' shown to be the fact. As for the biscuits, it was not I pretended that any were given away ; but they would be accounted for. Neither was it pretended that beer was given away after 4 o'clock, because Mr. Berber found the servants getting intoxicated, and stopped the supply at that hour, so that the women who swore they had no beer, came after that time, and they did nut therefore affect the case at all. He would not question 1 the veracity of the police, because they might have been mistaken when their arduous duties and the lapse of time were taken into consideration ' • but if the p ersons he should call, who actually partook of the beer, denied I that feet ' h e could only say that th e y wou ld have corn ' mittefi gross and deliberate perjury. He next came to the two girls, with whom it had been alleged Mr. Barber had been tampering, and, if such was the fact, then Mr. ! Barber would be subjett to all the penalties of his act; l but as these rls had told Mr. Horseley they partook of ! the bee r , her egretted any offer of reward had been made to those witnesses froda th , bench for the evidence 1 they had given, when a more abominable attempt to ! calumniate and injur e any one was never perpetrated. I Sir R. W. Carden said Mr. Joyce misunderstood him. He had no intention of giving the girls half-a-crown, but merely to tell them that, if their statements were true, ! they would not be the losers of the amount which they said Mr. Barber had off. red to them. Mr. Joyce said he was very glad to hear that he had I been mistaken. With regard to those witnesses, he should prove that on those girls leaving • the court they Raid they bad been better paid by Potter than Mr. Mr. ‘ Berber, and one said that her her chap had told her 1 what to say, and that they expected money for the evi dence they gave, and they further remarked that if they got two shillings each they would takeone room between them, for what purpose must be obvious to al in court. This conversation would be proved by three or four witnesses, and, further, it would be shown that the girl Hayes, instead of being three years in the service of Mrs. Stacey, who had gone to Australia, no such person lived at the address given at the time, but the girl's sister did live in the identical house described as Mrs. Stacey's residence. Mr. Barber's witnesses necessarily must come from among the class from which the two girls had been brought, and Mr. Horseley very wisely IADVERTIBSMENT.I SIGHT AHD HSAMNG SPHOTAMEEO POWERFUL TELESCOPES, °PARA, RACE . , AND PERSPECTIO G LASSES. --Messrs.

The conquest of the Purijaub, which he merely completed, is shown to be the only one from which any benefit is likely to accrue, and that only in a military point of view, there being a deficiency of 59,000/. on account of that province, althou,.i the marquis claims an addition therefrom of 1,500,000/. to the revenue. Pegu is not ceded to us fey treaty, and our future possession must depend upon the ability or otherwise of the Bur man monarchs to recover it. In the meantime the re venue derived from it only amounts to half the expenses exclusive of military and marine charges connected with our occupation, rendering it a positive loss to the Com pany, although Lord Dalhousie's Minute represents a gain of 220,0001.. which is nearly three times the amount actually collected. The other annexation s made under his ru e add nothing to the glory or stability of our In dian empire, because the rulers of the territories thus added to our already overgrown possessions in Asia hal long been mere ciphers, dependent on the company's for bearance. On the other hand, while the revenues ob tained from them are, far the most part, absorbed in the charges incidental to a military occupation, their annexation has spread discontent and distrust through out India, in consequence of the violation of treaties and disregard of the estabiisbed laws of succession involved in them. Of the rationality of these laws, Lord Dal house, it is contended, was not to be the judge ; suffi cient that they existed from time immemorial through out India, and that repeated a-surances had been given the Hindoos that their ordinances and customs should be respected. The writer concludes his anatomy of Dal housie's eight years' rule by referring to the crowd of illustrious natives now in London as petitioners agaitst his injustice and rapacity, and pointing to the fate of the conquest-founded empires of the past as an indication of what may take place in India should the same policy be continued, the English element being to the native but as one to five thousand, and the latter yearly progressing n i n t e lli gence an d social influence.---Liverpsei Albion.

A SONG FROM THE Dour. —Caroline M‘Carthy, a ticket-of leave woman, and George Ha), man, a marine, Were indicted for Atealing a silver watch and guard, the property of Edward Giles. It appeared that on the 20th of Dec. last the prosecutor met the prisoner in Granby street, Pymonth. Site caught him tightly round the waist and took the watch frora his pocket. It was after wards discovered that the prisoner Hayman sold the watch for al. The jury having returned a verdict of guilty the recortler in sentencing the prisoners observed that M'Carthy had been transpi;rted for a similar offence ; for seven years, and hail obtained a ticket-of-leave, but it appeared to produce no efiectupon her, and he should therefore sentence her to 14 years' transportation. In ' reference to Hayman, he should commit him to prison for 1 months, hoping he would have tine to reflect oak bir; position, and on his release be would then make a good member of society. The prisoner M'Carthy, who was a daring looking woman and of robust form, ex tended her arms and said, addressing the recorder, "I am ve ry much obliged to you for th e sentence you have passed upon me . I have now a chance of going abroad, and I shall have an opportunity of doing better than if I had stopped at home. Fortune smiles on the bad, and out if the country. Many I am happy I am going hundred s I h ave r obbed, and r I should return m an y hundreds I -hall rob again." She then left the dock singing very loudly. THE GREAT SOUTHERN AND WESTERN FRAUDS.
