I'HE EXPRESS, WEDNESDAY EVENING, MAY 14, 1856.

W dehadent store newsy, ekMb was the set-off against

To 81; licinry Maggeridge—Than is nothing due from
me to the defendant. It was the &Ward understanding
between the defendant and me that I would not let the
goo's be left without the money.
&tweed Bateman, elm* and warehouseman to the prose-
cutor, said—When the defeadant called on the Bth instant,
ha said he wee shipping drills and prints. We deal In those
goods, but bad acne In stock cooly petters., as we sell by
contheissios. I told him I would tell my brother to call upon
him, and I west to Lime-street amordingly and wafted out-
side while my brother west Is. I afterwards beard the de-
fendant soy, at our soustieg-home, that Swim muslin. and
Scotch muslin' suited him very well, and he selected it..
goods, the terms for which were to be prompt cash. My
brother said to me, la the defendant's untrue, that the
defentleat would give me a sheque, sad that I wee mot to
lesm the goods without it, sad I also got sistract,oas
to get the cheque immediately cashed in cm* it should be
dialtheoured. The defendant said he would go along With
me, and give me the cheque. It was also said by my
brother, " Let this be tally understood that this has uthiag
to do with any previous transactioo," and the defendant
laid,. It shell not." I then took two boa. containing 67
pieoes of muslin to Lisse.street, and was to brier; beck •
cheque for 161. or 201., or eorsethiog between those sums,
but nothing under 161. The defendant came up ma =-
panted by one of the Mr. Hurst', and at his drone I fol-
lowed him and Mr. Hunt into the private Airs up-stairs,
when they spate together for some time. After waiting
about ten minutes, I requested the defendant to be 'aqui&
as possible, as it was molly 4 o'clock, and I had to present
the sheque. The elder Mr. Hurst came in, and the defen-
dant bald some conversation with him, and a pier
of paper passed from the former to the latter. I
requested that the cheque might be given to me or I
should take the goods beck. Mr. Herat said, " Mr. Tarn.
bull has the cheque, and be will take it with you to Mr.
Bateman." I placid the goods ht the office, and walked
away with the defendant, believing that he had the cheque.
1 In going along, the defendant said he would go and get the
cheque changed ; bat I told him to soma with me to the
awning-how, Gait wanted three minutes to 4 o'clock. He
did too, and I told my brother what had peered, and then
the defendant said he wanted all the other goAle is baton
a obeque was given. My brother said no more geode
should go in, and he would not then take his cheque, and
I was to go and get the goods back. The Wooden% did
sell ear my brother a cheque; but, if my brother met in
the whole of the goods (amounting to about 1801.), he
wail, be said, give the therm for the amount I was
Mb.. birenght beak. I thee west back to Lime-street with
the headset, and I saw the goods there. The two Mr.
Hama and the defendant, and another parson' were in;the
ease at the time. I west up to the goods and took bold of
them, when Mr. Hunt, cosier, threatened to knock is••
dons, ea he bed, be said, height them Goa Mr. Turnbull
and Mld them lola. I suM I knew nothing about that ; I
led mum M dal& and he then took me by the shout-
deee W Ipmtheince not the wall, and said he would kick
sae •et. I them pleated up the boa cover to put it on the
bon, when the two Mr. Hurst. and the defendant at upon
me Ind held me down, and called to • boy to take away the
goods. The boy took one boa, and Mr. Hurst, senior
took the other, sad west up-eiain. I rushed against
them, and said they should not go up-stalls.
and I wee pushed bask by Hurst, senior, with the boa,
and the door was shot against me. He then said, " W ill
you go cot of this olio / Yoa have no business here." I
sold, Mr. Turnbull had told me to comic in, and I was not
going out without the goods. He said if it was hie °floe he
would put am out, sad he called Rant, jun., to put me
out. He said that Mr. Turnbull had no Mice there, and
that I would confer a favour by robbing Turnbull's name
out,. he had nothing to do with the cgeou. The defendant
then tried to run out, and I ran lifter him and caught ti
tail of his coat, and dragged his is. He raid tome that he
had nothing to do with the golds, that they were Mr.
Hints, who had given him ea &drones upon them. I asked
him for that 'drum, and said I would is if lir. Bateoan
would accept it ; but hi refined, and said he bad an account
against Mr. Batsman. The witaths concluded, attar stat-
ing some other particalus shawls, the determinatioa of the
partial to detain the goods.
Mr. Green said he had bon instructed by the defendant
that Mr. Bateman was Is his debt as amount comiderably
beyond that of the goods stated to have bi en 'applied, and
that no iaszcasable nseasuree had been adopted to obtain
restitution.

The Alderman intimated several times during the long
investigation that he masidered the ease to be • very Delimit
sue, end not only required two suretdas In 601. each and Mr.
Tomball himself to be bound over is the sum of 100 r. to
appear main on Thursday next, but directed that • march
vernal should be exemated for the seizure of the goods
stated to have berm detained on the premises of the
defendant.

Bail wsa procured and aroptad.
GUILDHALL.

-----
William Bag* Stith Ashcroft, a respectable•looking man,
was charged on thethed with stealing several prayer books
and bibles (rem*. pews is Finsbury Chapel.
Sir Peter Murk asked the prisoner what he was.
The Prisoner said he bad giver his name, bat be declined
giving his address, on "coolant of hie friends, who were very
rwraelleetsetat ble 169 said he bad made faculties about him,
ema the last situation be held was that of steward to If..
Tumor, on his farm at Cottbus, in Kant, and that he robbed
k employer there of about 1601., but he would not prow-
led* him as asecont of the expense. The prisoner was a
moor, but had seven worked at his Matinees since be was
est of tires. He bad a wife and tic children in the
eseatry, bat he had not lived with them for the last nine
yeses, and they were entirely dependent on her father for
support.
Sir Peter Laurie said be should send the prisoner for
trial; for when a man went into a place of worship with no
other intention bat that of robbery, it was as Wreath he
could sot deal leniently with.
The prisoner begged to be dealt with summarily.
Sir Peter Laurie said—No, you are • very clever man,
and I shell thud you for trial. With your abilities lem
surprised you did not go to Hyde park or Kensiegtoss
gardens on Sundays. There would have been pleaty of
work for you there, for since the nuisance caused by Sir
Beejunia Hall in having the bands to play there every
Sunday, there is quite a fair. People who went to live in
that neighbourhood did a la order that they might erj ry
privacy ; but the place was so thronged that it wee a soap
plate nuisance. I hope Lord Palaterion will soon see the
expediency of couatermandlag Sir Benjamin Hall's order.
Committed for trial.
