kr. l'any arid aides' there was a legal right proved on the
part of Mr. Kean, he should object to the letters being
read. He slimild ask the magistrate Ilrat to look at the

, plaiu his motives further thau to say that it was to prevent
pain to do• holy, and to avoid feeding a prurient
curior;ty, that could out lietietit the prisoner, or have the
sli4litcst bearing on thecae.
Mr. Keane was prepared to am. e his right. The cone.
spindlier, was important, awl be had a right to put it
lief. re a jury to chow that the lady's story could Dot be
believed, aml that she could nut be trusted—that. in fact,
she ass under en error throuhout, which fact the materials
out of the letters would sulticiently establish.
Yr. harry sell it was extraordinary that a prisoner
charged with ulitairdeit niooey hy false pretences should
have instructed Lis counsel to assist him in carrying out his
views by means of there letters. The publication of the
letters he contemns] belonged to the lady exclusively. The
well known care of Curl in reference to Pope's letters was
in paiut. There wee no doubt about the tenor of these
letters, sad there could be no doubt of the object the per.
surer BA when be gave iustruction• to his counsel to get
the publication mad* By this course.
Mr. Keane said the property in the letters was not exclu-
sively in the lady. The letters were joint property. If the
letters were relevant, the court had jurisdiction ' • if not
the court bad no jurisdiction. If no jurisdiction, In con-
tended the letters were his client's ; if jurisdiction, then it
ens bemuse they were relevant ; and be was therefore iu
a Fonilition to make use of them.

The CHAJRNAN having moved the adoption of the report,
A WWII:HOLDER thought the meeting should be made
acquainted with the difficulty that stood in the way of an
arrangement with the Extension Company.
Mr. REED, the solicitor, said be and Mr. Whitehead had
been appointed to effect an arrangement with the Extension
Company, but the proceedings fell through consequent on
this company being usable to realise oertain expectations,
unoecesaary further to be alluded to. He, however, hoped
that clauses would be introduced in any future bill which
the Extension Company brought before parliament, giving
them the necessary powers of absorption or dissolution.
Until then they must go on as usual.
Some further discussion ensued as to the propriety of
various measures to be taken for procuring the absorption or
dissolution of the company, but the question was allowed to
stand over for the present.
The report was thou unanimously agreed to, and the
meeting concluded with a vote of thanks to the chairman.

Albert Cowan Atl4;ses- a-you nun employed a letter-
carrier in the northern district of the General Pest-office,
was brought before Mr. Henry charged with stealiug siz
letters.

~Mr. Arnold de fired h r.
Payne to stand forward, and on
his doing so said— Hus the particular place been pointed
out to you where the police found the clasp-knife pro-
duced.

Mr. Peacock, who attended from the solicitors depatt-
meet for the prosecution, stated that it had been often
urged in extenuation of this increasing clue of offenders,
that the letter-carriers were ill-paid, and were tempted by
their poverty to commit acts of felony. In the present
case, however, it would transpire that the prisoner had been
in the service for four years at a salary of Ms. per week ;
and that as much as 26f., on gold, was found at his lodgings.
Hairy Bingham. an officer attached to the service, de-
posed that. owing to suspicious entertained, be concealed
himself in a position to watch the motementa of the pri-
soner, while engaged in sorting the letters between six mid
seven that morning. He saw the prisoner go into a closet,
and, after bottles it inside, take four letters from his
pocket and open them. He then took out two more and
opened them also. He took something out of several of the
letters, then tore them up and threw away the fragment..
Witness went round aad met him as he was leaving the
closet, and requested him to go into the office of Mr. Clarke,
in whose presence witness stated what be bad seen. The
prisoner denied it. Four sixpences were found in his pocket,
sad he gave up the key of hie lodgings, in Weston-street,
Pentooville, and also a key of a little box, which be said
would be found there, and contained money. Witness pro.
ceded to the lodgings, and opened the small box, which he
found to contain 28 sovereigns, and is. 6d. in postage
damps.
This evidence was corroborated by another Post-offloe con-
stable, and by Mr. Clare.
The plumber attached to the Post-office proved that he re-
covered the fragment, of the letters, which were addressed
to Mr. G. Cunningham, 16, Metcalf-place, and bore the
Margate stamp : Mrs. Graham, 13, Church-street, Upper-
street ; Mrs. E. Price, of Ivy-terrace ; Mr. Preston, of
Northampton-street ; Mr. J. Hislop, of River-street, York-
road ; sad Mrs. Wallis. of Royal Oak-walk. Several of the
letters were out of the peisouer's walk, and ought not to
have been in him possession.
It did met appear that either of them contained a larger
amount of money than 6d.
The prisoner, on the application of Mr. Peacock, was re-
manded for further examination.

to throw the knife where it was found. I should feel
obliged by your accompanying the polite to the room, in
order that you may have no opportunity of judging.
Dr. Payne—l will accompany the police, sir, as you
desire.

Mr. Peily said the question of property in the letters
was a must important point, and he should wish to have the
opisiun of the judges es it.
Mr. Keane said he could not consent to this delay. u the
sus might go to trial in Miss Juhustone's abetnice.
Mr. I'am mid he would pledge himself nut to go to trial
in the lady's:A.l,nm.
Mr. Mandield -aid there wee a peculiar state of property
in letters, otid • it'a respect to these, the first step to pub
licatiun required the consent of the owner.
Mr. Parry would not conceal that Mine Johnstone wished
to prevent these letters from being made public.
Mr. Keane would have copies made, if the letters were
glum up.
Mr. Parry said it was distasteful to the lady to have
the letters made public. They were written, as the lady
maid, in gram and hriectionste terms, and it would be painful
to have them made the subject of public comment. He
would allow the lettere to be semi before going to trial.
Mr. Keane claimed equal right of having copies of the
letters, es they were necessary for the prisoner's defence.
Mr. Parry said if the learned judge who was to decide the
question was of opinion that copies ought to be given, then
throe would be au end of the doubt ; but pending that
decision, the offer he sow made was, that before going to
trial. his learned friend should have access to the letters.

An ill-looking fellow giving the name of Bryant, was
charged with being in the house of Mr. James Doveday, in

Mr. Doveday stated that on the previous night, about ten

who had just retired to her room and law going to her bed.

She told him that • man was un ler her bed. He then

broken. No property had been removed, but tho prisoner's
boots and cap were found on the stairs.
Robert Pike said he was passing along the Southgate-
road about • quarter after 10 o'clock, when he saw the
prisoner running with great speed along the pavement He
(witness) imagined all was sot right, from seeing that the
prisoner wu without his nap and boots, and he attempted
to st him, when he said, Far God's sake don't stop me,

stopped and taken into custody.

Mr. Mansfield sail he had no objection.
Crosemsationation resumed Was sometimes called "A
Dove" is the corresismdence with the prisoner, and some-
times signed herself " Your Drive." Could not say pen-
tively when she had written last to the prisoner. Had
spokes the truth to the best of bee recollection. She bad
neither plots, nor plans, nor snares to catch any one, and
she, therefore, could sot charge her memory with an exact
statement of circumstances. Could say that she had not
been alone in the ptisoner's studio (meaning not with the
prisoner) between 12th July and :ird August last. Had no
recollection of ever having been in the prisoner's study at
thu, dates. As far as her recollection went,
she would say no; that she had Dever bees in
the studio alone between July and August. Court not give
any other answer. Would cot say positively " No" where
there was • possibility of her memory deceiving her. Had
been to the studio. Could not say how many times. Had
bees nutty times in the prisoner's study, principally is re-
ference to the portrait. She believed lie was a man of
honour. She had ao fear in visiting hint. She must pro-
test against being entrapped by than questions.
Mr. Mansfield said Miss Johnston 'oust not allow her-
self to be isetrapped. She rout answer deliberately, in •
straightforward manner, and to the point.
Core-examiudiliom nonnied--Hail no recollection how
long she stayed in the studio when she called on the prisoner.
Sometimes she stayed an hour. Hail no recollection of
seeing the room where the Kimono's wilting-table was.
Told her guardian first of what had occurred. It was on
the Sunday after she had gives the moue to the pri-
soner. and received the dummy panel instead of her letters.
Miss Jobastooe was here crusemeandool at length on the
mole of receiving the parcel sod the pa leg up the money.

made up, sad the affair iu the Paothton, as already pub-
. lishol. She did net part with the money because she
wished the prisoner to have it. She hail been forced out
of the mosey. Site looked at the trio ection in the same
light as if a highway robber hail compelled her to part
with the money. All she wnoted was the letters. The
premier was sometimes with her, but he did not speeds
deal of time in darning after her. Never mole an ap-
pointment with the prisoner. The prisoner made appeint-
'tient' first. it was owing to the proposition of the prisoner
that she maileapp3intmeots. The prisoner had viaited her

wrote to the primmer only conteniplatel getting lack

guardian. Lent mosey to the prisoner fur him to make
progress in his art, but smog knew that was sot the case.
She had heard, but would not say, that Dotes in the pri-
soner's possession hml been discovered with the name of a
young woman .uliscribeil to them. Had (never heart of this
young woman before. Believed the prisoner was truthful
whea she first made his acquaintance.
Ite•examined—The prisoner was introduced to her at •
moat respectable house. Believed the prisoner to be a gen.
th.i.ein. Her slater and herself and other ladies went to the
prisoner'e studio. The portrait was talked of about the
beguiling of the acquaintance. The portrait was a very
long time being finished, it was intended for the Exhibition.
Tlia picture also cootaiued the portrait of her sister and her
deg. At the time sl.e parted with the 1,900 i, she believed
the letters were in the parcel.
Patrick Campbell Johnstone, Esq., gentleman, was bro-
ther and also guardian and trustee to the prosecutrix. He
recollected his sister enesulting him et the beginning of
August about this wetter. His sister made • communica-
tion to him, and also showed him a parcel containiug some
old pipers. Wrote to the prisoser a letter detect the 16th

Henry Bananas, bootmaker, was charged with endeavour-
iag to obtain money under false pretences from the secre-
tary of the West-end Boot and Shoe Makers' Society.
Mr. Edward Lewis, of Great Marlborough-street, appeared
on behalf of the society, which he stated ablated journey-
men when out of employ. The prisoner was charged with en-
deavouring to obtain money by false pretences. The society
consisted of four breaches—the West-end Men's Boot-
makers, the West-end Ladies' Society, the Beatelosers'
Society, and the Heavy Boot Society, and had
both proviocial and metropolitan lodges, where as-
sistance was rendered to workmen on application
at the different towns in search of employ, and the funds
of the society were dispensed by moans of cards given
to the applicants to receive assistance in the different
towns through which they passed. No workman, however,
was entitled to possess more than one card. O Saturday
afterucoo last prisoner applied to the Female Bootmakers'
Society and obtained the necessary assistance on the pro-
duction of his card, and on the rune night applied to the
Metes 'toolmakers' Society and produced it similar cani, but
in another name. In this case he was not successful in
obtaining any money, the forgery being detected, and he
was subsequently given into custody, a third card being
found on I when searched. He (Mr. Lewis) wished to
state that the society having discovered numerous forgeries
of late hail hem) pooling' on them, and that their charity
bail been abused, had determined to prosecute iu all eases
where they discovered offenders.

foe a remand to complete the evidence.
The tattooer was remanded.

DESPERATE LEAP AND REM AAAAA LE &carts-0u
the afternoon of Thursday last a VAN named Laker. a shoe-
maker, mimed Ashford, performed reverdi most desperate
nod deagerma leepa, while in a frantic sts,e of 'Mod. Loa to
the surprise of all who are acquainted with the circumetamme,
he escaped without any serious injury. It appear. that Laker
had bees working for and lodging with .14. Barret, shoe-
maker, of 2, fit. Cleineut'e-place, who on the preowho4 arm-
ing noticed something peculiar in his manner, and in the
course of coovereatiou found that he was dwelling upon the
delusion of an attempt being made to seed kim to an asylum.
He afterwards became morn composed, war got to bed, sod
medical advice was obtained. About 2 o'clock on the fol-
lowing aftenwou he crept quietly out of bed, climbed up to
a window placed above the half-landing of the stairs, and
jumped from the sash on to the roof of a scullery, about 90
feet below. The roof giving way bemath hie weight be fell
through, and mining scrams the yard sprang to the top at
wall seven or eight feet high. From theses he jumped on
to the roof of another building, 20 or 30 feet below, and
' then made another descent to a still lower building, break-
hag is the slated roof, and Whog backwards, as is *unposed.
into the yard of No. 14, Undeveliff. He then proceeded
into the kitchen of that house, where he was found leasing
on the table in • trembling coodition, sad with no other
clothing than a shirt. The crashing noise mused by bisfalls
attracted the atteutien of Mr. W. P. Beechen). Jun., Br.
Bellman, and others, who immediately roe to the spot, and
' to their great surprise, found that althoulin cut sad bruised,
the poor man did not appear to have breams say boom, or
sustained any serious injury. The medical assistance of Mr.
Wilson was called in, and it was thought ?rudest to convey
the unfortunate man to the Infirmary, where he received
. • nenssaary attention. The entire distance which be
jumped was ascerteassen to be id feet.

Harriet Sainte, • mkldle•sged woman. was twought

12 o'clock the previous night he was coining out of a refresh-
