he had the letter of credit. A cheque was accordingly made
out for that sum, which I signed and gene to the prisoner.
The forged letter of it was pat in. It was dated
" Valerian, August 6," and bore the postmark of that date.

tors, said : On the 17th August, by direction of my principals,
I filled up • cheque fee I,IOW sad the prisoner Costosu
dried • receipt for it I. the name of Manuel de Campo.
Signor Calbsaa said: I reside at Valencia, and am •
partner in the Ina of Callum Brothers. Our firm are the
eonespondeats of Messrs. Marietta, but the letter of credit
now produced is a forgery. The signature is an imitation
of asy brother's writing. I know the prlneer Costosar by
another name, but I know nothiag of the other prisoner.
By Mr. Parry—There are three partners to our firm, bat

my brother's luting, but I know it is not genuine.
Beesansined: Oar firm had no transactions at any time
with a penes named Mammal de Campo.
Mr. Lemon, a clerk in the banking-house of Mears. Stone,
Martin, and Co , proved that on the 17th August the pri.
Boner Colour brought the cheque for 1,1001. to the
banking-house. He was aceompanied by another man
whom he believed to be the other prisoner, but be would not
andertake to swear positively to the fact. He paid the
cheque is Bask of England notes for 6/. and 101, and five
pounds in gold. (The whams gave the numben and dates
of the notes he so paid.)

proved that on the 17th August the prisoner Costosar
changed one hundred 61. Bank of England notes for French
and Belgian beak notes. He wrote the name of Campo,
iland the address Lendoe Coffee-house, ca one of the notes.
M. Jose Wines, • Spanish merchant in Walbrook, de-
posed that en the 19th of August he received a letter, appa-
rently signed by their eorrespoodent at Valencia, authorising
him to pay to Manual de Campo • sum of 7001. on their
aimoust. The letter was also, as in the former ease, dated
the 6th of August, and bon the mark of the Valencia post-
ale, of that date. On the 16th the prisoner Caton,
called at their counting-boa.., aid represented himself to
be the person refined to in the letter of their correspon-
dent, and on the following day he paid him 7001. by a
siteaple. which was cashed by eine of his clerks at the
banker's, sad bank now to the amount banded over to the
prisoner.
Evidence was then adduced to show that this eseend in-
strument was also a forgery ; and it was also shown by pro-
perty forted in the possession of the prisoners that they
wen at Valencia at the time the pretended letters of credit
were posted at that city, and they appeared to have tra-
velled to England together, and took op their abode at the
Loudon Coffee-how, where Consul. was taken into custody.
Upon his being asked what be had done with the bank*
notes he bad received, he said he had given them to a friend I
Ito take ears of ; and in consequence of information that
was nbesquently received • communication was made to
the Paris police, and two letters addressed to the prisoner
Masip " Poste Beetante, i Paris," the address being in his
handwriting, were opened, and were found to contain the
whole amount of the produce of the two forged instruments
in bank notes, with the exception of about 2001.
Mr. Parry, in his address to the jury, said it would be
unless to attempt to struggle against • conviction in the ease
of Costosar, but he urged that the evidence was much less
conclusive against the other prisoner, and that there was
nothing positive to show that he was a party to the fraud
that hod been committed.
Mr. Baron Aldenon having summed up, the jury returned
a verdict of Guilty against both prisoners.
Soutanes was postptned.

Carpenter tot:au:nit some money for him through the post
by mesas of an order. This he did not do, but kept the
