Tamcis.—A young man, who gave his name ea. William
Brow, living at tie London sad South-western Coffee-
house. Waterloo-road, but whose real name turned out to
be John Gering, who, a few maths dna, held an expellent
situation in the silver pantry at Windsor Castle, was charged
with fraudulently obtaining two gold watches, a silver
watch, and seen gold guards, value 331., under the follow-
*: eireum.taness.
Mr. Henry Paring, of 62, Farringdowstreet, wahmaker,
mid—About three weeks ago the prisoner was introduced to
ma by a Mend, who said be held a situation in the silver
wiry under her Majesty at Windsor Cutle, and that he
wanted to purchase a watch. The prisoner also represented
that such was the cats, and bought a silver watch for 21. I sold
it to him in the name at Goring, and some days altar he
Belled again, saying that he was much pawed with the
watch, that he was jut arrived from Windsor, and should
UM to look at two geld watches and a silver one.
Sir Peter Laurie inquired how he was Wad.
Mr. Paring replied that he was dressed as he then ar
Peter pseu
Sir Peter Marls thought the prosecutor's suspicions ought
la have been awakened by his appearance, as it was evident
be did not look like a person in want of a gold watch.
Mr. Perrin said that although wearies a dress similar to
Ilia one he had on, still he licked much cleaner, and had a
different appearance. Besides he was introduced by a friend,
who might have been deceived, whom he (Mr. Pining) had
known for upwards of 20 years.
In continuation, Mr. Perris( said the prisoner selected
two sold watches, which I was to get cleaned by the follow-
lag Friday, the 9th of Jimmy, end talc away a silver
watch with him. Before leaving he also said be should like
to take sate 'nerd chains with him likewise on the Friday,
ad as I had act any myself I was to get them at some
wholesale house for him en approbation. I did obtain some,
and had three on hand belonging to myself. Previous to
Friday, the 9th, I received a letter which by other evidence
will be proved to be the prisoner's handwriting, directing
that the watches and guards should be sent to the " Mogul
Tavern," Drury-lane, by four o'clock, as they were to be
transmitted down to Wiadaor Castle by the six o'clock train.
Sir Peter Laurie--Was he in the service of her Majesty at
this time ?
Mr. Perrin* —He was not. He had been, but discharged
himself about throe maths ago. I sent the watches and
guards by my son to the Mogul Tavern, where they were
left. On the Monday following I wrote a letter directed to
I the prisoner at Windsor Castle, but not receiving any reply,
I weal down cn Tuesday, and then discovered that the pri-
soner had given up his situation three mouths sine*. I have
seen one weal and four chains, which I identify, and which
were pawned on Saturday, the 10th of January, the day
following that they were forwarded to the prisoner. On Sa-
turday he was brought to my shop by a friend of mine, and
I then gave him into custody.
Several witnesses were examined, who corroborated the
prosecutor's statements.
Sir P Laurie asked how the prisoner had been living since
he left Windsor Cade ?
Mr. Parting said that he had ascertained that the prisoner
had been on the constant move from one coffee-shop to
saddler ever sines. His father had been with Messrs. Run-
dle and Co. for 25 years, and it was they who got him and
his brother into the Queen's service.
Inspector Howard wished for a remand, as there were
other charges against the prisoner of getting quantities of
plate under similar circumstances.
Sir P. Laurie remanded him until Thursday next.

ig modenie draws by one Atkins, purportiag te be ee-
-1 =bya the defendant and indorsed to the plaintiff. The
t pleaded that he did not make the acceptance.
Mr. Thoeftey and Mr. Hawkins were for the plaintiff, end
Mr. I. lames sad Mr. Pearson for the defendant.
The plaintiff is an attorney, end the defendant • cow-
l/wiper at Hasten. The bill was drawn en the 15th of
Osteber, payable two months after date, by • person named
Atkins, described as claming on business sa • calf salesman
at Chelmsford sad as a publican at Edgware. The bill
purporting to be accepted by the defendant, who is a cow.
keeper in an extensive way of business, was taken by a bill
broker to Lewis Leon,a jeweller in Haton-garden, by whom
it was discounted. When the bill arrived at maturity it was
taken up by Leon, as the defendant denied that the accept-
ant* was his. Lon, in order that he might appear as a
witness on the trial, had indorsed the bill to Mr. Lewis, by
who the present proceedings were cortmened. The facts
of the ease will be learned from the following outline of the
evidence.
Lewis Leon (whose evidence was admitted b?the
learned
baron after objection that, being an interested party, w
within the anteing of Lord Denman's set) deposed that he
discounted the bill im the 15th of Oct. Having heard some.
thing about the acceptance, he called on the defendant,
and stated that ha bad discounted a bill drawn byAtkins and
wee fed
idli by him, adding that he (witness) had been down
to were, as be had heard something about other bills
drawn by Atkins, to which the &Indent replied, I
hear that Atkin has pot into a area. but the bill is 'all
right, and will be paid when doe.' In cramezamiaation
the witness stand that the bill was brought to hiss by • Mr.
Tucker, a bill-hrokee for whom he discounted it at
411. 12e. ed. H. mild on the defendant about tin weeks
alter. The bill was payable st the house of a Mr. Williams,
in Smithfield. He west there and asked if the acceptance
was in the handwriting of the dneadaat, to which Mr. Wil-
liams replied that he thought It was. He then want to
Edgware, and found that Atkins had absconded. He told
the bill-broker that the acceptance wee a forgery. When
he saw the defendant the latter did not say that Atkins
would pay the bill, but he said that Atkins had got into •
men, but it was all right, and the bill would be paid when
due. Witness took up the bill and endorsed it to the
plaintiff, in order that this evidence might be admitted on the
trial. No value was given for it, bat it was placed to an
account between them.
Mr. Tucker, the bill broker, was the only other witness
for the plaintiff. He called on the defendant sad asked how
he bad failed to meet the bill ? The defendant said he had
authorised Atkins to put his name to several bills before,
and he bad always met them ; but he should go down and
en Atkins about them.
Mr. Jones, for the defendant, contended that the defend-
ant had neither accepted the bill, nor had he afterwards
adopted the ant of Atkins as hie, as stated by the evidence of
Leon. The leaned counsel called—
Mr. Williams, who is what is termed " • Smithfield
banker," and at whose house the bill was payable. He
could not say that the acceptance was in the cefendant's
handwriting, neither could he swear that it was not.
Ann Johnson, nine to the defendant, was called to re-
but the testimony of Leon. She was in the habit of keep-
ing bar uncle's amounts, and was present when Leon and
defendant met: Leon, producing the bill, asked if that
was his acceptance ? Defendant said no; was not. Leon
asked whether he thought Atkins would pay the bill, add
defendant said he thought it would be ell right. He said
nothing about paying.
Cross examined—The defendant she believed had no deal-
ings with Atkins for • period of two years prior to that
time.
Yr. Perry, the attorney for defendant, proved that a
written request was made by the plaintiff to the defendant,
to go before &judge at chambers, and make an affidavit that
the acceptance was a forgery. This was acoesded to, and
when the parties went to chambers they boned that the
learned judge had left, whereupon a written declaration was
drawn up, and they proceeded to Bonstrest to lave the
defendant's oath taken before a megieftate. But es the
plaintiff said, an newer to a guides hem the magistrate's
desk, that he should not allow the 111161101111 S se be pat
