The 16811. as broken by the Ranaome end Sima's ma-
chine oznedrited of 1181 b. coarse sad 4011 b. fine, this being
the only outshine tested that effected this division. The
ea result in the two minutes' trial wee said to be due to
an irregularity with the dynamometer. There wee a good
allow of competitors with root cutters and pulpera, and it was
required that slices of different sizes should be cut. The fol-
lowing were amongst the competitors, but complete details
of the results were not obtainable :—Banionve and Sims, a
aka-breaker, and also a Biddell's patent root•cutter ; John
Werner and Sone, London,. turnip-cutter ; Bernard Samuel-
son, Banbury, a cutter and also a disc-pulper, invented by
Brewer; W. Goulding and Co., Leicester, a pulper ;B. H.
sad Beats], Heybridge, a pnlper ; Hugh Canon, of War-
ndnenw, a Moody's cutter; James Woods and Son, Stow-
market, a mincer and pulper, invented by Phillips, of
Brendan; Barnard and Bishop, of Norwich, a cutter and
also a peter; and Piekaley, Sims, and Co., Bedford, near
Leigh, a cutter. In one or two roam it was necessary to
have a second trial before the judges could arrive at any
conclusion.

It was stated in • previous communication that 21 double
threshing machines—machines capable of thrashing, clean-
bg, and preparing aced for the market—had been entered for
competition, and that they were all to be worked by the
same steam-engine. To each machine 150 sheaves of
wheat were served out for a first test, and 60 sheaves of
Imlay kw a seooad. Several machines were found to be
disquabled, and some broke down or were withdrawn. Of
those actually tasted the following results were arrived at, so
fit as those which were tried with both wheat and barley are
concerned (but the return is not official)

I shall be ebb to send the fuller and official list (including
the machines that failed) on Wednesday.
The trial of reaping machines Is to take place in a field of
17c. with a rather strong crop, on an incline, which it le said
will be likely to test the capabilities of the implements
thoroughly. Amongst them will be Messrs. Burgess and
Key's machine, which has already carried off • number of
prizes. It Is not proposed to award any prise this year, how-
ever, but the stewards have consented to booms judges, =d-
u prevent a report of the society upon the merits of the im
plements. The final trial of cultivators will take place on
Wednesday, it is expected,

Mr. Mullenssaid he should not have elicited the facts of
the conversation, if Mr. Beard lied not Weed a question as
to the identity of the prisoner and hi. handwriting.
Edward Warr—l am clerk to Masers. &danger and Son,
Newcastle. la the year 1866 they were brokers to the ship
Anna, Captain Hall. I knew Captain Hall, and have MOM
him write. Ido not believe the signature, "T. Hall," on
the bill of lading produled, to be his handwriting.
Fred. Myenn—l am clerk to Mews. Bischoffahrdat and
Co., Awl-court, who are the London oorrespondents et the
Delhi DIMIOUnt Bank—On the 29th June we received •
letter few that bank enclosing the six bills produced, and
mouth/dui get them discounted. There was also eucloeed
which we were togive up upon the accept-
ance of the .We prasgted the bills at the Union Bank,
and they were •ccepMd.
J. Hawkaworth, clerk to the Union Bank of London, pro-
dotted • letter from Wolf's; dated the 28th June, as fol-
lows :—" Wolgut, 26th June, 1858.—T0 Union Bank of
Lendra.—For account of Mews. It. Tiedemann and Co., in
Newest* I took free to rains upon you (six bills for 4001.
esch, enumerated) in firsts and seconds, to my own order at
two months' date; and I beg you will give prompt proteo-
tket to them for account of said friends. With esteem, Ono
F. HOWITIII."

took the prisoner into custody on
Saturday at the Bt. Katherine's Steamboat-wharf, and called
M the essistance of Joseph Kantor, an interpreter, with in-
structions to acquaint the prisoner with the mature of the
charge in his own language. Afterwards I took the prisoner
to the station home, and found In his pocket the card I now
produce.
Mr. Mullens—lt le appaar card, granted in the year 1860 to
the merchant Otte Ihetlerick Hoommr,a traveller is Prussia.
&mph Kantor—l act as interpreter at the St. Katha-
rine's-wharf for the Navigation Company. On Saturday het
I saw Jarvis and the prisoner together there, and in conse-
quence of what Jarvis said to me I told the prisoner that he
was charged with forging and making two false bills of
lading. He said yes, be did make the bills, but he hoped
the officer wouldn't do him any harm. He said he bad a
We mad six children, and that he had paid his debts with
the mosey. He said at first that his name was Nieumann,
and that he had come from Ostend ; but at the station he
gave his right name.
Cross-examined by Mr. Beard—l told the prisoner that
Jarvis wee a police officer before I asked him any questions.
Mr. Mullen—This is all the evidence I intend to produce
now ; but it is necessary that there should be • remand, as
the particular bill of lading upon which I intend to found
the charge of forgery is at present in the possession of Mr.
Tiedemann's clerk, who is in Prima* but will very shortly
return to England. I must therefore mak your lordship to
remand the prisoner fer • week.
Mr. Beard—l submit to your lordship that there is no case
made out upon which the prisoner ought to be detained, since
the forgery, if there be one, was committed in Prussia,
and , actually, upon the Berlin Discount Company.
80. Muliens—l charge the prisoner with being guilty of
forging a bill of lading in Prussia, it is true, but with ut-
tering that forged bill of lading on discounting through the
postman in Newcastle, who acted as his agent.
Mr. Beard—Does your lordship hold that to be sufilalent to
give you jurisdiction f'
Lord Mayor—Most undoubtedly. The uttering, at all
events, is complete as regards this country.
The prisoner was than remanded.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.
Immo Oopky, a stonemason, was charged with a bridal
meatilt on Id'an 130 C an °Mort of 18 years' standing.
M'Bean said thit on the previous day, in Moor-street,
Soho he maw the prisoner driving a oab, and a cabman came
running up saying that the man had got his cab. The pri-
soner then .topped, and on witness attempting to take him
into custody gave him two severe blows, and when on the
ground gave him two violent kicks, one in the stomach and
the other on the chest, from:which he:suffered great pain, the
kick on the chest causing him to spit blood all the morning.
The prisoner, on being Merged by the cabman, said that he
had only taken it for a "lark." The cabman did not stop
to see what might happen, but a. soon as he got his
crab drove MI. The prisoner, he believed, was a stonemason
working for the pariah of St. James. The conduct of the
prisoner was very violent, and it required four constables to
take him into custody.
In answer to Mr. Leadley, the chief clerk, M'Besn said he
bad been to a surgeon, who bad ordered him to remain very
quiet for a few days, as he was suffering from internal in-
juries.
The prisoner said he bad been a teetotaller for two years
and a half, and had had • little to drink. The cabman invited
him to have a ride, and he drove.
Mr. Riedea said he was receiving parochial relief, was
found driving a cab without a license, and when the con-
stable OW= up he struck him, and afterwards kicked him in
a very serious manner. He should remand him for a week,
to see what might be the result of the injuries.
Williams ChristopAer was brought Won Mr. Beadon
charged with stealing a painting, value 51. 5.., the property
of Mr. JohmNorthen, 45, Brompton•equare.
Mr. Northen said he gave the prisoner, who is a porter at
Robins' auction rooms, a written order to bring away four
palatine
i from the auction room, and to leave them at his
Brampton-square. A day or two afterwards the
prisoner called on him, and said that one of the paintings
could not be found ; that he would call at the &notion rooms
again, but that there would be 4.. Bd. to pay for warehoum
room. He gave the prisoner the money, and the prisoner
shortly afterwards brought three of the paintings to his
house, alleging that the people at the auction rooms could
not find the fourth painting. He did not hear from the
prisoner for several days. He then called at Robins' rooms,
and from the information he obtained he gave the prisoner
into custody.
Polka constable Lambert said he went to the prisons?.
' lodgings, in John-street, and found the prisoner in bed. He
told the prisoner he should take him into custody for steal-
ing the picture. The prisoner said he got drunk and lost it.
At the court that morning prisoner voluntarily said he would
speak the truth. He had taken the picture to Canning's
sale rooms, had sold it, and spmt the money.
The prisoner was remanded for • week.
