The first charge was the firsr, brought under the act. The caie was con ducted, on behalf of the Crown, by Mr. Tyndall, and Mr. Gluck detetded.

THE INDIAN MUTINIES. TO TTIE EDITOR OF TILE NORTHERN TIMES Sir,—The Times, on Monday last, in a long article, attempts to controvert the arguments of the Univers, touching the dissolution of the Br tish Empire, and declares that the Sepoy, in his fury, would murder a Catholic as soon as a Protestant, not knowing one sect from the other. So much for the opinions of that , lespotio paper (the Times), which is now, on the Indian question, making a laughing-stock of itself all over Europe ; from the first outbreak to the last arrival from India, the supposed head of the English press has not, on one point of prediction, been correct ; in fact, it seems to be in total ignorance on the question at large. The idea of the Mahommedans not knowing Protestants from Catholics is the worst assertion it has made. The Catholic soldiers of England and the Sepoys were the best friends, and the priests of the army have met the greatest kindness from them, now and before the revolt,—both have suffered injustice at the hands of the East India Company —both their petitions for fair play were presented to the Governor-general together—both were re jected, and, consequently, a sympathy existed between them. The Sepoys revolted, the Catholics patiently submitted to the injustice, nor have the former touched one of the priests although they spared not the Protestant ministers in the hour of triumph. The Mahommodan notions of Christianity are &f,-rent from those supposed to be by the Times. They believe t! - ,at the Catholic faith, as professed by France, the oldest form of worship, and consider that, as being so, deserving the preference; and, moreover, the Mahomaaadan rulers have frequently denounced the English form of religion, in mani festoes to their people, as a mutilated fragment cf Christianity, composed by a king and parliament to suit their views. The respect which the French mi3sioneries have met with in India caused a jealousy against them. If the London Times can not confute its antagonist on other grounds, it had better be silent —Yours, &e., SARSBIELD.

Tracy sat again on Thursday, in the record court of the county court-house, to receive apprcations from persons to have and carry arms. In ueordatice with his annouocerneat on opening the court, his worship has not given licenses to carry arms to the residents in Belfast, he has not granted a single licerst to the residents in the streets and places in uhich riots hare taken place ; and fur the three days that the court. has been held, the number of persons licensed to have erns in their dwellings amounts to only one hundred and fifty. Belfast Mercury HANGING AT' SEETABULDEC—A letter from this place, in Irviia, says :—Flanging is the order of the day here, I am happy to say. A short lime ha' k, I sent you an ac count of the stringing up of three of the Irregulars, and now I have the felicity of informing you that two more miscreants were similarly elevated yesterday an 4 the rhy before—a proceeding that not only reflects great credit on the energy and promptitude of Mr. Plawden and his sus - hut has manifestly had the salutary effeet of awing the niggers, and k ee pi ng t h e peace in these anarchical mrs. Here, I rejoice, and am mast thankful to say, all is profoundly tracquil, and is Fkely to continue so I hink. ROMAN week, in di7ging for the drainage works in Copennegen-street, the workmen turned up a small copper coin, or Qaiolrans, of the Roman Emperor D.lrni..ian. On the eLverss is the laureated head of the Emperor, a portion cf the inscription—' Imp CAEs Dom," being discernible. o.t the reverse it a fivire of the go3dess who superintended the public coinage, holding in one hand a horn of plenty. The pair of scales with which she was usually represented in the other, and the heap of coin nr metal usually depicted at her feet are partly worn out. The legend is " Moneta AuguA.i," with the familiar " S.C." (senates consulto) in the field. A stral silver coin of Charles I. was en Wednesday found at a depth of some feet below the old sewer on the North Parade.— Worcester Chronicle. THE SCRNE OF THE CAWSPORE MASSACRE —A elrres pondent writes :—" I have been to see the place where the poor women and children were imprisoned and after wards butchered. It is a small bungalow close to the natl. There were all setts of articles of women and childre's cl tthing : lathes' hair, evidently cut off with a sword, back combs, &e. There Isere also parts of religious books. Where the massacre took place it is covered with blood like a butcher's slaughterhouse. One would fancy nothing could be worse than this, but in the well at the back of the hove are the Indies and :iinbs of the p - eer things. I looked down and saw such a sight as I hope never to see again. The whole of the bodies were naked, and the linfcs had been separa'ed. I thought of the two Mrs. and the three p ior girls, and felt very sea. By all accounts the women were so ill-treated that death, even such a death must have been welcome to them. I will not enter into more details. I have looked upon death in every Um, but I could not look down that well again." A CASE FOR Tem VICTORIA Cst , e.s.—Perhaps one of the finest acts of cool, determined bravery ever recorded was performed by a private soldier belouzing to the English force besieging Delhi. He was in the sot of bearing a wounded ensign, a mere boy, from the field, or rather the suburb before Delhi, when a mutineer fired upon them from the upper windows of an mire tnt house. Deliberately placing his senseless officer under shel►er, he walked to the house, tramped up stairs, and shot the man who had fired. With this wretch were two other mutineers, and before they could come to their wits two rapid thrusts of ' the s'ildier s bayonet finished their career. He then coolly returned to where he had placed his wi,unded officer, took him no in his arms and carried him to the camp. In the *same communication f-om which this fact is derived, it is stated, as a proof of the infinite superiority of our troops over the mutineers, that 150 of the latter having got into a serai (a walked enclosure for traYAlers) on the flank of the British camp, kept up a galling fire upon stragglers. Twenty Europeans went after them. The Sepoys shut the door, but it was immediately blown open, and our men rushing in, shut and fastened it again, determined to fight to the death, till Every wan on one side or the other was down. They then set to work, rushing from one to another, and driving their bayonets through them as if they had been sheep. Of the' whole 150 not one traitor escaped. CAPTURE OF AN ESCAPED C• ,Nvar—The c Joseph Stillman, has arrived in Bristol from Liverpool, and been safely lodged in Bristol jail. The convict w,s smtenecd to fifteen years' penal servitude for murderously assaulting and robbing a mane in the employ of Messrs. Hewitt of Bristol, but some months ago escaped from jail, in company with another man named Parr, who was undergoing a year's imprisonment. for = uttering counterfeit coin. Stillman states that they both got - away 'Without the connivance orknowledge, but through the neglect of some 4 the turnkeys. The doors of'their cells and of the in firmary were accidentally left open, and-the night officer, on coming on duty, neglected to ascertain whether they were locked, as ha should have done. The prisoners waited until the dead of the night, and having watched the ' offices out of sight, crept stealthily into the corri ior, and' thence into the jail yard. There they made a rope of some woollen comforters, and filling one end of it with earth, threw it over the wall. Stillman climbed up firs', and jumped from the summit of the wall into the field. Parr tollowed, but on reaching the top,. turned the ballasted end of the xtemperised ladder inside the wall towards the prison, and then deliberately descended into the field. The convicts shook hands and parted, each going his own way, and Stillman, it is said, heard nothing of Parr afterwards. Stillman's friends, it would seem, secreted him in Bristol for three weeks, and when the hue and cry had abated he got on board the medcan ship Siloam, bound to Quebec, and stowed himself away, and only made his appearance On deck when the vessel was oat of sight of land. , He was, however, recaptured soon after the Siloam arrived in the river of St. Lawrence by the local authorities, who had re ceived itformation of his escape, and the expected' arrival 'of 'the ship fromßristol.

Mr. Moore appeared for the prosecution, and Mr. Howe for the prisoner. The se, )man's maiden name was Mary Simpson Cowen. She formei ly live 1 with her parents at Rickergate, and afterwards reale ved with her reputed second hu s ba n d, Mr W. A.

Miss Jade Beattie was the fair priestess, Rn d produced the entry of the marriage —the sntLeg bride having received fe.7 m her hands ass certificate. She a2€o desc - ibed the ceremony : •'The parties stood in the presfeice of the witnesses, declare 1 themselves single persons, and eisreed to take each other for man and wife, and she declared them married." The experience 1 postboy, however, added his opinion of the preliminaey agreement "it was like buying an old cow, for the parties made as cheap a bargain to get married as they could." Mrs. Lydia Routledge, half sister of Richard Carruthers, proved that the parties afterwards lived ftr a short time together. Carruthers died in November, 1853. This was the first marriage of the prissner. On the let November, 1838, six months deer that alleged marriage, the prisoner and her present husband were married at Gretna hall, by the la‘e Jobo Linton. The marriage lines were pr educed ; bat Mr. Howe declined to give up the certificate which was found in the prisoner's possession. Mr. Moore appealed to the bench, to order it to be given up or impounded by the officer of the court ; bat the Mayor said it was not a charge of felony; but of misdemeanour, and they could not make an order. Mrs. Linton said the parties had declared them. Ives single persons, and were duly married. Mr W. A. Wlson, the husband also spoke to the marriage. In viewer to Mr. Howe he admitted that before he married the prisoner he had heard that she had been previously married. He had lived with her from that time ; bet about eighteen months ago he had instructed a solicitor to inquire into the truth of the first marriage, and the entry was discovered. He added that they had not Fved together as man and wife, but that she lived under his roof ; and he hat lately been summoned before the Liverpool magistrates for refusing to maintain her. Both marriages were proved by Mr. Downie, town clerk, Annan, to have been valid according to the law of Scotland. The bench resolved to send the case to the assizes ; but on the application of Mr. Howe, and sanctioned by Mr Moore, bail was accepted for the prisoner's appearance in answer to the charge --Carlisle Examiner.

(From the National Magazine.) A passing wayfarer down the Strand may have noticed certain dark archways on the south side; he may have noticed, too, if topographically observant, that the Adelphi buildings stand on level ground, whereas the streets on either hand slope abruptly down towards the river. Those yawning mouths lead to long avenues, ramifications of damp vaulted passages, which constitute altogether the Adelphi Arches, Neely the subject cf much comment. The next time he is in the neighbourhood, let him enter, and explore the labyrinth to its furthest recesses; let him, indeed, do this twice—once in the day time, and again by nigh' ; for night alone can reveal the scenes of existence which that labyrinth discloses Reader,—you and I, who are fortunate enough to have a home, and who, perhaps, on some occasion when jaded with long wan lerieg, and huegry, have solaced ourselves each step we took by thinking how soon we should be there, how the creature comforts of supper would soon be before us, and how soon we should commit ourselves to the solace of care.killieg sleep —think what our condition would be without a home, without a supper, and without a bed. Soma thirty thousand such there are every night all the year through in this ,rent hive of bricks and mortar, to whom an archway,—some place whither they may escape from the elements, and from the noisy turmoil of life without, stands in place of home. The railway arches come in for their share, and the dry arches of bridges, hut all sink into insignificance by comparison ' with the labyrinth of vaulted passages which we are aboet ieeally to explore. The entrance is steep and elippery, always damp when the weather is dry. Vainly the neighbouring sewers yawn and gaps up through their grating prison-oars to catch whatever of slush and impurity may chance to pass their way. The Adelphi Arches have an insatiate maw for filth Down the flowing pollutions come, and in they roll. As you cautiously tread your way, each passing foottal reverberates like the clankirg of fetters. If you speak, your words come beck again like voices of whisper ing ghosts, with which, indeed, it takes no great stretch of imagination to pictn:e the labyrinth as pe,pled. This is our preparatory expleretion—it is by day, the human creatures who penile its recesses by night are wandering. Though midday, the arches would be quite dark were it not for the gas lights sparcely distributed here and there along the walls, or hangieg from the roof. Yon shiver with cold though you ge there in the dog days. Wanderieg onward, the sound of wheels meet the ear, and presently through the gloom you perceive a cart approaching; it is filled with ice ; for, besides the long vistas of open a ehways, there are others branching off trom the main road, let as warehouses. A bottled-deer purveyor uses one, several confectioners make ice cellars of others. From one of the latter the cart rumeles away, and is returning to the shop with ice slabs from Norway or Wenham Lake. The Adelphi Arches are naturally cold, but these ice cellars make them colder still; the blood in your veins almost threatens to freeze as you pass near them Raving made our primary explorati .n by da', let us vary the scene, and learn what the Adelp!ci arches have to show us in the dead of niget. The click strikes twelve a; we ewer. Groups cf tired wenderers are fl ieking in, aed taking up their stations as fast as the police will allow them But now and then ore of Sir Richard Maynes' preioriau guards paces his subteeranean rounds, and dis - tures the refugees. Listen ! • What is that ? " Bads, beds, beds, a penny a night, a penny a night ! Vater, seep, seed flee for ! Atl for a penny a night. Now's ye: time, ladies and gentlemen ; now's yer tin.e." Wherever a few pieces of money are gathered together, even though they he copper coins, there, in this great market ef speculation, will business be dens or at tempted " Beds, beds, beds, a penny a night, a penny a night! Soap, eater, and fire for vitt'ls! The individual from whose noisy throat these cheering promises come is a totter sent out by a Jew frem the back-slums of Covent Garden That Jew keeps a tonging. house for travellers, not quite fitted up in accordance with the act of parliament anent 1 odg 7 ng-houses ; but th> Jew keeps clear of inform re. He and the informers best know why. "A. penny a rtglit, a penny a night ! Any mere ladies and gsu'lemen as rants a bed for a penny ?" merry of the wandering outcasts who are beginning their career, to whom the Adelphi Arches are now, and the Jew's touter is a stranger, the promise of a bed for a penny comes like a peace bearing herald from the world—their enemy. To others the same words are gill and worru wo td. Many are without a penny; or, if they have one, desire to save it for the morrow's loaf. About half a dozen find a penny each, and accept the conditions. Some pay at once ; others, more suspicious, reserve the precious coin until they see with their own eyes what they are to get for it. "A penny a night ! a penny a night ! Any more ladies and gen'lemen vot vantsa vith soap and vatar, and flea fa: vitels in the morning, all for one penny ?" Btlt the number of penny lcdgers seems fully made up ; no morn candidates apr,ear to be forthcoming, when occurs the strangest scene of all. " \Tot lady or gent," inquiries the touter, " vould like to have a night's lodging for a fardiu ?" " I, and I, and I," exclaim the former penny candi dates. "Stop a bit," says the touter, beckoning them away. " Is it reasonable to suppose that any genlemsn or lady can get a fust-rate feather-bed, vith pil:er to match, vith soap and vater, and fire for vi‘els, all for a fardin ? Vy, the soan's vorth all the money." (3a, indeed, it would b', if used according to the necessities of his ragged clientele ) Then don't get chaffir g us, governor ; wo'rg tired, so corn- along." But the touter's work is not yet complete He knows how to extract more coins from those seemingly empty pockets. " Now, if fiur ladies or gsn'lemen vill subsariba four fardins and toss—vy there's a bed for the von vot vine." Ha who thinks that every notion of sport and speculation must depart and vanish from regions of misery like those we a-e exploring, is mistaken. Perhaps there are no conditions of humanity so low, no fortuitous groupings of humanity so hungry, depres3ed and jaded, but that hopes and fears rem sin ; degrees of bitterness and worw-ness marked on the dial-plate of existence, revealing a moment of happiness sparkling from amongst the dusky hours of misery, or a moment btill blacker than the rest. Aye, there'is ambition, hope, solace, trust in some lucky revolu tion of tannin's wheel, even miler the Adelphi Arches. Many a marquis scheming to be a duke, many a merchant planning increase to his wealth, hoe 10-ked up to the longe3•for crowning point of his aspirations and down to the shipw,eek of his hopes, with no stronger emotions for the time being than those experience will contribute their farthings to win the golden chance of a bnd for that night. A ragged group resemble under one of the gas lights. The bed-touter has a sort of rough wit ; a talent which got him his place, and which helps him to keep it. He sets firth in glowing language the Elysian delights of his employer's lodgings, until smiles are evoked upon c tena.nces so wan and worn that you would have supposed they could not smile. The tower's eloquence is not fruitless ; pockets are fumbled, and rags are shaken, secret wiiys leading out of pockets into the tangled recesses of shreds and patches are probe ! with claw like fingers, until farthings come forth. Tho destiny which rules over the Tow's beds is thus made apparent. The touter tosses a faithing. " Heads," cries one of the first roup of fin.. " Heads it is." " Tails" criea a second. " Very sorry, it is heads," says the touter ; "stand aside)." In this way each group of four is weeded, until one remains ; to that one ate night's loding belorgs. On her or hint the de , phi fates have for that night been propitious. Thus group after group are disposed of, until the first handicap is played out. Gambling is contagious even here Many of those who have lost their first chance discover oche; farthing 4, and make another handicap. Again the distribution. of beds is repeated. At iengtl the touter depar s with his recruits; and the Adelphi Arches, weeeed of their p-o4perity, are tenanted by the very dregs of the dreect of L - tudon misery Wna,t vo ce is that whic'h c times from the far depths of the ertn. ,?

BOYS' CLO rum° MADE WITH GREAT TASTE, at LEWIS and COMPANY'S, Itanelagh-street, THE ROBBERIES ON THE NORTHERN RAILWAY OF FR &NCB. The Court of Assiiee on Tuesday commenced the trial of Carpentier, Grellet, Guerin, and Parod, for the extensive robberies of , the Northern of France Railway, amounting to about 6,000,000 f. The court was not by any means over-crowded, but among the persons present were the Baion James de. Rothschild, the Marquis Delon, M. Hottinguer, and Delebecque, directors of the Northern Railway. When the prisoners were placed at the bar the greatest curiosity was manifested to see them. Carpentier is tall, and of gentlemanly appearance; Grellet is short and thiek-set, his features a e highly coloured ; Guerin, who is an elderly man, had the appearance and bearing of a peasant in holiday clothes ; Paned, who is of good height, has blaca hair and whiskers. In answer to the usual preliminary questions, Carpentier said that he was 26 .years of age, and was formerly pine:psi cashier of the Northern Railway Company ; Grellet Said he was 31, and was formerly - sub-cashier of the said company ; Guerin, .that he, was 56, and formerly night watchman in the cash office of the same company ; Parod, that he was 31, formerly a medical student, but latterly a horse dealer. The list of witnesses was then called over, 35 being for the prosecution and 18 for- the Prisoner , Parod The indictment, which was of great length, set forth these facts :—Carpentier and Grellet entered the service of the Northern Railway Company when it was first formed. They were then ' very young, but by attention and intelligence they attracted the notice of their chief', and the former was, after a while, appointed sub-cashier, and in 1856 cashier. The latter, after being chief clerk of the office of the deposit of shares, was made sub-cashier, sill remaining at the head of that office. On the 26th of August, only some months after his pro- Metion to 'the cashier-hip, Carpentier obtained from one of the directors leave cf absence . fer a few, days, on the pretext that he was about to marry. The day , after Grellet said to an employe that Carpentier, instead of going to the young ' lady to whom he was engaged, had gone off to Trouville with a young woman named Georget, whom ho had for some time kept ; and that as the know ledge of this feet would damage him in the opinion' of the yonng lady's parents, he (Grellet) would go to Trott title to brirg him back; he therefore stated that he. should not be at the office the rext day r and he begged the employe to say, in the event of any of the directors asking after him, that he had gone to the Bank of France on btreiness. No attention was excited by the absence of the two men till the Ist of September, when. Carpentier's father, to w ,om the employe had spoken of his eon's departure for Trouville, and who had gone down to that place after him, but had not found either him or Grellet, or the young woman Gaorget, waited on one cf the directors to say that bodi his son and Grellet had - disappeared On this the direct( r, who was the Marquis-Delon, made a hasty ex amination of their accounts, and found them apparently perfectly regale:. ; he also found tbat 30,000, shares belong ing to Baron de Rothschild, and which had been placed in a safe in Grellet's room, wet; apparently intact. Two days after, when neither Carpentier nor Grellet had made his appearance, a more searching investigation was made, and robberies and frauds to an enormous amount were die ; covered. It was then ascertained that the two men ha I been very intimate with Pared, who was au old school fellow and tewnstnan of Grellet ; and that in, conjunction with hint they had speculated le-gely on the Rowse ever since 1852, their operations at first being successful, and afterwards the reverse. It was subsequently discovered that on the 27th Carpentier had sailed from Metre for New York. and had wet ten to Grelletr tell hiaeso ;. that Grellet had go on to Liverp 001, and hal proceeded thence. for the seine dostinatien ; and that Parod, with a woman named' Miele ) .ibut, with whom ha had lived fur some time, and by whom he had had two children, had also fled fion Paris to Liverpool-, and had sailed in the same vessel with Gullet - for New York. Lastly, it appeared that about the same time Guerin, who had been, in the service of the railway gem petty, first as watchnal of the baggage, and next as - watchman of the cash office, at a salary of only 1,200 a, but 'who had left the company in October, giving out that he hal inherited a fortune, and who had purchased land, built houses, aad made leans of money—it appeared that this man had g ne to . Brussels and thence to London, where he was staying in a false name. As the frauds and robberies had been committed in the office which he had to watch, it was supposed that he must hare been concerned in them, and in September he was arrested at London. The other three were not captured in America until some time after wards. The indictment then went on to specify_ the robberies and frauds committed. It said th.4ahough the 30,000 shares of Baron' de Rothlchild had appeurad to be untouched, yet n a close examination it turned out that 5,065 of them had been taken away, and had been replaced by 5,065 others removed from 'he daps-its of other share h aders. The safe in which they had been deposited, had' been forced open, and as Grellet and Carpentier could open it with keys, it was almost certain that the extraction must have been made by Guerin, unknown to them. In the cellars of the company were other safes, in which were deposited shares belonging to the different holders, and these safes were fastened with three locks, two of the keys of which, were held by Carpentier and Grellet, the third by a director. Yet these safes had been .opened, and 240 shares belonging to the Marquis de Lentilhae had been taken from the envelopes, in which they had been placed ; 34 other envelopes, containing 'shares belonging to twelve different persons, had also been opened, and 5,512 shares had been abstracted from them. Of these 5,512, 5,065 had been placed in the eollee . tion of Baron Rothschild. There consequently remained 447, which, added to the 210 of the Marquis de Lentilhac made 687 ; and, conseqaently, this total added to the baron's 5,065, made 5,752: This vast robbery was not the only one committed ; 1.000 bonds of 5001., numbered from 384,001 to 385,000; had been abstracted from the counter foil registers which contains: d them. Some time. aft-r it WAI ascertained that the accounts, though apparently per fectly regular, presented a 'deficit of 1,166,543 f. 52c., eon sisting first of a sum of 900;000f., which had been falsely inscribed as having been paid into the Bank of France ; and next one of 266,543 f , falsely inscribed as having been paid to the accountants of the company. The indictment then proceeded to relate the circumstances of the arrest'of the four prisoners, and said that Carpentier was found in p es session of a sum of 10&,720f..; Grellet of 22,901 f; and Parod of 55,800 f.—in all, 187,511 f. ; in addition to which there is reason to believe they have, jointly or separately, secreted part of their booty. As to Guerin, when wrested, he possessed various houses at Paris, or in the environs, estimated at 310,000 f. esecnrities for 1 ens made by him to the amount of 142,000 f. ; 1,415 coupons of shares of the Northern Railway ; an ackno wledgement of 160e000f. for goods sent to Velparaiso ; - and, lastly, when he fled, from Paris to Belgium, he carried with hint 60,000 f in notes of the Bank of France. The indictment next went on to say that Carpentier and Grellet had confessed to the tub honks and fcauls, and had stated .tha3 they had made them in order to raise funds to meet losses incurred at the Bourse with Pared, with, however, the intention Of making restitution in the event of the spe culations being successful. As to Guerin, it appeared that he had ',speculated on his own account, and that in 1854; 1855, and 1856 his operations atnonnted to the, enormous sum of 43.000,0001. The indictment then wont, On to specify tie precise share v h:ch each of the.accused had in the robberies : —lt charged Carpentier and Grellet with having stolen 3,0:0 or 4,000 of the shares of Baron de Rothschild, by opening the safe with keys confided to them, and Guerin with having broken open the said safe and stolen the remainder ; the robbery of the 240 shares belonging to the Marquis de Lentilhac, it said, had been committed by Grellet, he having taken them unobserved one day when M Hottinguer, one of the directors, was removing shares of which the restitution hal been demanded by holders • the rest of the stolen shares had, it alleged, been abstracted from the safes by Grellet, ho having on some pretext got M. Hottinguer to lend him his key for awhile ; but :he said shares had been_given_ to Carpentier, and he had put them in Baron de Rothschild's collection ; the robbery of the bonds was stated to have been committed by Carpentier and Grellet jointly ; the embezzlement of the 1,166 613 f 52c had, it was asserted, been made by them jointly, and they had made false entries in the books to dieguise it, such false entries constituting forgeries ; and, lac ly, Parod, it was alleged, had knowingly participated in all the robberies, and had received 300 000? of the sum embezzle& The indictment concluded by charg'ng Pared with having also been guilty of fraudulent bankruptcy as he sae dealer, his liabilities being 48,810 f. The indictment having been read, the President 'pro ceeded to interrogate Carpentier, and The prisoner replied as fellows :—" I was ten years iu the service of the railw y company, and my salary as cashier was 7 0001. - a year. I admit that I knew that shares were abstrac'ed from the safe of Baron Rothschild, but I deny that I teak them I could not, in fact, have taken liven myself without being detected, but Grellet could and did. I had the key of the safe, but there were occasious on which it was confided to Grellet. I did not personally interfere with the operations which were made on the Bourse; it was Grellet and Parod who effected them. I confided my savings to Grellet, and shared his good cr ill success, but there was no regular deed of partnership between us. I deny that the shares taken from Baron ' de Rothschild's safe with my knowledwe were .5,065 in number, but I admit that I put into his safe shares taken by Grdlet froni other safes. I think, however, the number did not exceed 70. I was riot privy to the stealing of the bonds.' I admit the deficit . -in my accounts, and it was I whip made it known. I admit that I made false entries in the books to disguise my frauds. The greater part of the money taken on me was my own. I realised it by operations on the Bourse, made with a capital of 50,000 f.
