ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE.

HOME CIRCIIIT.—MLumroNr., lirLY 31.
Caolm EQ:DE.

Mr. Edwin Jams, Q.C. b been trying priss today
in the Third Court, and this will mate the
business of the swim. It is expected that the criminal
business will be concluded todav, end Mr. Justice Black-
burn will then take the common jury causes in their order.

(Before Mr. Justice Blackburn.)

John Clark, 41, was charged with forging an order for the
delivery of goods and money with intent to defraud.
Mr. Russell prosecuted ; Mr. Ribton was counsel for the
prisoner.
It sppeared from the evidence that the prisoner had been
for many years in the army, and that be was discharged
with ea exceedingly good character and a pension of two
shallop a day. lie subsequently obtained a situation as
warder of the Chat ham convict prison, and the offence im-
puted to him wa, committed while ho was holding that
office. It are te ed that among the prisoners was • man
named Jackson, who had been sentenced to penal
servitude for felony, and whose wife resided at
Carmarthen, and it was alleged that the prisoner,
being acquainted with this fact, had written • letter
to the wife in the name of her husband, requesting her to
send him two sovereigns and half a pound of Cavendish to-
bacco in a parcel addressed to some person at Chatham, and
the letter also stated that if the money was sent it would
enable him to obtain many comforts in the prison which he
would otherwise be deprived of. The poor woman, it ak
peered, was unable to raise the requireel amount, but she
sent five shillings. The matter, however, came to theknow•
lodge of the governor of the prison, and the prisoner was
at once discharged from his office of warder, and subse-
quently committed for trial upon the present charge.
Mr. Itibton made a very energetic addrees to the jury on
behalf of the prisoner, and he especially urged upon them
his good character and long se vice in the army as grounds
for disbelieving that he would be guilty of much an offence
as the one imputed to him. He also contended that the
probability was that the prisoner might have intended to
serve the convict Jackson, and that although in so doing he
had undoubtedly infringed the gaol regulations, he had been
safficiently punished by the lees of his appointment.
The jury, afterconaiderable deliberation, returned a verd
of Not Guilty
