SERIOUS CHARGE Or EMiEiiLENIENT
ANli VOMERY AT THE NORTHERN
HOSPITAL.

"Yesterday, at the Police,coPrt, an elderly gentleman,
named Robt. BtAnderson, was brought up by InspeetOrs
Carlisle and Layeock, on charges Of forgery and em-
berslenittlt. the prisoner appeared respectable, and is
over 66 years of age he lived at 23, Falkner-square,
and for the last 25 years he was vice-president and
manager of the Northern liospitl; aid the Charge
against him was fer Miglag receipts and embezzling
sums a tiOney belonging to the trustees of that insti-
tution. Mr. Deane appeared for the prosecution, and
Mr. Parr for the prisoner.

Mr. Deane, in opening the case, said he appeared on
behalf of the trustees of the Northern Hospital, to pro-
.p,=,,re the prisoner on three charges---all he rh•n-
ceed upon at present. The prisonet was One of the
vice-presidents arid getiekaq manager of the hospital,
arid the Chaigei were for altering accounts and receipts
fot money, and in several instances he had managed to
obtain double receipts :for sums paid, and in others he
had forged receipts and then embezzled the money.
During the present year alone upwards of £9OO had
been discovered as embezzled, and he (Mr. Deane)
believed that from docrtmenti and accounts that could
be prodneed, the defalcations had been going on for the
last eight or nine yelis. It might be considered as
strange, that these matters had not -beeri-direcrrered
before this time ; but with regard to that,it might be
stated, that the auditor took the cash-book when the
accounts were audited, once a year, and the prisoner
took the bills in his hand, and called ont.what.Was in
the cash-book as all right, and then the auditor checked
them off, thinking all correct. The prisoner, being the
vice-Dresident of the institution, had to collect and pay
the accounts, and had a salary of £lOO a-year for the
performance of that duty. He (Mr. Dean) would only -
praduce three cases at present against him. The first
was an account of Mr. Thomas Chaffers, for £3 65. 6d.,
and another small item of 18s. 6d., making together
£4 45., which was paid, but the prisoner Made £4O 4s.
of it on the receipts bat forgot to put the nume-
rals on *the receipt stamp. In ariOther ease, *here
ht made three poUnds into nine, and a third, where he
charged over £4B, in .£l2l, arid for the latter sum he
attempted to get a secend. teceipt, but failed, yet he had
charged the 148. These were the short facts of the
as opened by Mr. Deane, who said the prisoner
had forged receipts for larger sums than he paid, altered
the numerals, and got double receipts where he ,could
for sums paid where he had receipts already, and charged
all these to the institution, embezzling tlia money. In
the last case he charged the sum in 1859 which bad been
paid in 1860, aid thus defrauded the trustees. He then
called the following witnesses to prove the opening
statement :

Mr. Thomas Chaffers, of Great Howard•street, said
the trustees owed the house £3 4s ad and 186 id. Sent
in the invoice. A youth Mined Sohn Carten called for
the accounts and the prisoner paid him £4 2s 6d, and
witness gave a receipt for it. (Receipt handed in.) All
the writing in it now is not in his handwriting. The
additions are not in his handwriting, nor were they on
it when he gave it.

Mr. Charles Inman, ono of tie trustees of the hospital,
said the prise/ter Was the manager of the institution, and
proved the addition to the last receipt to be written by
the prisoner.

Mr. H. Molyneux gave a receipt for £3 due from the
Northern Hospital, on the 31st May. The sum "
brought forward" was not in the account when he gave it.
Mi. Inman proved that the institution was debited for
£9 on this account, in the.prisoner's halidfvfitiiig; and
the last witness Said there duds lid finch account duo
to him.

Mr. H. Mattison, of Messrs. Morgan and Mackay's,
proved that he made out two accounts for the Northern
Hospital, one account Was for £45 15s. Id. The whole
sum was over £124, and it appeared that the account
was paid in February last, but the receipt was altered
to 1859, and over £4B added by the prisoner.
Mr. Inman proved that the entry in the book was in
•
the prisoner's handwriting.
Mr. James Markwood, one of the auditors, proved
that: the prisoner produced a voucher for the 548, and
he thought it was correct.

Mr. Deane said he had half-a-dozen other charges,
but he thought the present quite enough.
Mr:Raffles said there was quite enough of evidence
in the present case. •

Mr. Parr said he would bit offer any observations at
present, but would ask his Worship to accept of sub-
stantial bail for the prisoner.
Mr. Deane begged to remind his Worship that the
defalcations were very large.
Mr. Raffles said it was his painful duty to commit
the prisoner to. trial, and at present he must refuse bail,
but he would consider the matter.
• The prisoner was then committed for trial.

not any longer find persons to play with him, he took
to card playing, in which he got equally well skilled,
and won enormous sums of money. It is related of
him by Varnhagen that in order to revise the expres-
sion, " Sich im Golde walsen" '(rolling in money), he
covered his floor with gold pieces, and in the presence
of witnesses, absolutely rolled about upon them in a
state of nudity. Fortune forsook him at length, and he
used to beg persons to s it in his face; for though he
had 'oiled in money, he cost it all.L-Humboldt's Letters

CHARGE OF ►. COMRINATION AND INTI
MIDATION AOAINsT Mir BAAVytlis.

Yesterday, at the police-court, before Messrs. Hough-
ton and Castellain, Daniel Holland summoned Edward
Birkenhead, William Gardiner, William Richard, and
Owen Jones, for intimidation and threatening him, so
as to prevent him from working as a shipwright. Mr.
Woodburn appeared for
,the complainant, and Mr.
thick Was fi7r the defendatifS.
Mi. WoodLtiiii CPPened the case, and said the nature
of the complaint was shortly this. The complainant,
Daniel Holland, is in the employment of Messrs.
Thompson and Co., shipwrights, Sefton-street, as yard-
man, at 4s. a day. On Tuesday evening last, the com-
plainant was outside the gate getting some pieces of
wood, when William Jones came to him and assaulted
hint, saying he wthild teach him to work Eta sawyer
Linder wages ; he got into ihe yard aiid fastened the
gate, but after some time he went out for his cap, when
all the prisoners attacked and assaulted him. He got
into the yard and was followed by the defendants, who
drove him out of the yard along with his dog. They
beat him with pieces of wood, and threatened to do him
great injury for working under wages. He then called
the prosecutor, who proved the above facts.—Mr. Bluck
cross-examined the man, who said he Was satisfied with
4s. a-day i the defendants worked near, bit he could
not tell what wages they got. Ile denied that the yard
dog was ferocious, or that it ran at the defendants to
bite them; Birkenhead and William Jones said if he
worked for 4s. a-day they would be the death of him.
The defendants are sawyers and not yard men ; believe
that sawyers got 4s. 6d. a-day.—To Mr. Woodburn :
He said the defendants chased him and the dog with
pieces of timber.
Thomas risher, a carpenter, was examined, and cor-i
koborated the greater Out evidence, add
oil cross-examination by Mr. Bluck he was not shaken.
—Mr. Bluck then addressed the bench, and contended
that the case was a paltry one, and repudiated the idea
that the defendants would interfere with a yard man,
they being sawyers and above the sphere of the
complainant, who was getting very good wages,
so that the defendants could not complain on that
account. He then called David Williams, who
said the complainant called at, the yard Where the
inell were and asked kok and idites said
• • •• • it, so
if it is boxing you. Want, I will giVe YOti enough of
they, went to itiid boiled 'each other. He did not hear.
the defendants threaten complainant , Sohn Jones, was
called Arid add that4ol-
- challenged William tones out to hot him. This
witness was cross-examined by Mr. Woodburn, and he
said he was not outside the yard. This was tha, whole
case, and the magistrates, after a short consultation,
decided that the defendants were guilty and ordered
William Jones to go to jail for three months, and
Richard Jones acid tirlterihead to jail tot one Month:

THE SCHOOL OF MUSKETRY AT HYTHE.—Every-
body in England knobs now-a-days that a school of
musketry has been for the last fe* years established
at Hythe under the direction of Major-Oeneral nay,
and that extraordinary results have been obtained
from the system there purstieri. For the first tittle in
our history, attention has been paid to the individual
accuracy and skill in the use of the rifle, of every
soldier throughout the army. From every regiment
in the service a detachment of officers, non-commis-
sioned officers, and men is sent to Hythe. They go
through a long course of instruction; these who
qualify themselves for the honour, receive the appoint-
ment of instructors of musketry, according to their
several ranks. Proficiency in the theory and practice of
musketry is rewarded in the soldier by increase of his
daily pay, and promotion to wear a distinctive badge on
his arm. The best shot of a battalion has two pence a day
extra pay, and cross muskets and crown worked in gold
upon his sleeve. The best shots of each company, and a
certain number of men called marksmen—men who, in
the yearly course of shooting have exhibited great
proficiency in judging distance, as well as in the theory
of musketry and tiring—are also selected for rewards of
various amounts, as well as the privilege before alluded
to of wearing the distinguishing badge of a marksman,
the cross muskets. To obtain the distinction of wearing
the cross muskets is of course an object of much
emulation, and the excitement is very great during
the time of the annual course. The firing is in
all instances conducted strictly in general accord-
ance with the rules of the School of Musketry
at Hythe. The school has become the centre of instruc-
tion for the British army, and an uniform system has
been thus established. It was obviously desirable to
assimilate the musketry instruction of the volunteers to
that of the regular army. Each corps has therefore
been allowed to send one or more members down to
Hythe to undergo a careful course of training, which on
his return he is expected to communicate to his corps.—
