▪ The Lard Mayer—lt is very fortunate for you that the
Bead of Trade, who are rightly prosecuting this matter for
the prolestion of 11111610, do rot compel me to send you to
the Central Criminal Court for trial. If they did so you
would be seldom to tour years' penal servitude, for it is one
of the amour dhows known to the law, that of persona
forgieg, or assisting in forging, documents for the purpose of
obtaining money or property. There is no doubt that you

and called Wootton a filthy name, and threatened to throw

to a medal on his breeat) by my bravery and good conduct.

The hergenteMajor said that other soldier. than those
charged were out after their mope time on the night in

engaged in a conflict. Two of the priaoners had been con-
fined in barracks for the last eix weeks on account of the
present charge, and the other had been in the hospital.
The Lord Mayor said that, taking into consideration the
imprisonment that two of the soldiers bad already undergone,
and that the third had been for some weeks in the hospital,
his brother mightn'te and himself were of opinion that the
ends of justice would be satisfied by the infliction of a fine
upon the prisonersof 6s. each, or seven days' imprisonment.

the whoms were discharged.
The Lord Mayor requested that the press would acknow-

Thomas Birel,ttrors, late redeviegoversaer of the with of
fit. PADOVA, surrendered to his recognisance*, charged with
misruling various sums of money belonging to the directors
of the poor of the parish of St. Pancras.
Mr. Humphreys attended ea before for the prosecution,
and Mr. Lewis for the defence.
Mr. Humphreys, in opening the mss, said be teas prepared
to offer evidettoe in the other caw against the prisoner, and
thee to ask for the committal of the prisoner for trial. One
of the cases was that of • Mr. George Gardner Neale*, who
had, on the 17th or 20th of April last, paid the prisoner the
sum of 41.10,.; and the other was that of • Mrs. Pearce,
who, on the 3rd of October last, paid the prisoner
the sum of 31. ss. ; wither of which smonnts
had been accounted for. He had thought to have
been enabled to get other cases complete against the
prisoner so as to have included three cues of embezzlement
in each of the indiureenta, but he (If r.:Hrunphreys)would not
ask for • further remand, but any new evident* that might
turn up he would at once give notice of to the solicitor for
the prisoner. He should produce a bond which the prisoner
signed on the 7th of April, 1851, in which the prisoner
stipulated to receive and account for all monies. He should
not be able to cell the attesting witness, as he had aliecondal,
and a reward was offered for his apprehension. , Mr. Hum-
phrey them celled.
Mrs. Jane Pearce—l am the wife of Francis Pura, and
reside at No. 15, Portland-street, Oxford-street. My mother,
Push Streets, is an inmate of Bt.Pancrse workhouse, end has
been so for some time. On the lid October lest I paid the
prisoner on behalf of the pat ish the sum of 31. be. for the
maintenance of my mother. I paid the prisoner the money
at the workhouse.

Georki37rdate Nagler—l reside at No. 8, Bridgewater-
street, Niteroi. lam an engineering officer in the mrvioe
of diet pariah. Once about the 7th April 1 paid the pri-
mate the sum of 41.10 a. for the maintenance of George slid
Catherine Keeley, who were inmates of the workhouse. The
minute then gave me the receipt produced.
William Jaques said—l am the accountant of the pat lob of
St. Pancras. I has already examined the prisoner's receipt
hook, and I do not find any entries of 31. 6e., or 41. 10e.,
the rams mentioned by the but wigwam.
Mr. Walter Duncan Harrison—l am clerk to Messrs.
White and Co. solicitors, of 12, Great Marlborough-strtet.
I protium a bond, dated the 7th April, 1861, for 1601.
lir. Lewis submitted that the bond could not be admitted.
as the attesting witness could not be called, and the law stated
that he most be called.
Mr. Tlrerbitt—The law also Is that if a man dim, removes,
or cannot be frond, they may prove by witnesses the head-
whim.
The witness Jaques recalled—l know that a person of the
name of 0. W. F. Cook was vestry clerk and solicitor of the
parish of St. Pancras. He was so on the 7th Aptil, 1&51.
He is not now clerk, end I know that he hes absconded from
the parish. I have heard that a warrant Is out for hie cep-
Chton, and that a reward is advertiffid about the sited&
ili? Apprehension. Cook was discharged from hie idles
several weeks ago. I have sot the slightest knowledge of
where he h u gone to, or wham to Bad him.
Sergeant Robinson, said—l am a sergeant of the De-
tective Police force. I know the.. • warrant was placed
in my hands from this court on the Bth Nov. 1868, for the
apprehension of Cook on a charge of Lacey. I have been in
pursuit of him ever dace.
The wittier Jaques, recalled—The signature to the deed
are to the handwriting of the ptieoner and Cook.
This closed the ow for the prorecution.
Mr. Lewis rammed the defence, simply saying, "Not
guilty."
Mr. Tyrwhitt (ally committed the prisoner to the Central
Criminal Court for trial, but contented to take bail.
The necessary hail haring been put in, the prisoner left the
court with hie Made.
