FOIt4ID FiVE POUND NOTES.—.IIIC police officers of
Stockport have for some time pease:tied 'nformation et a
gang who have been employed in uttering forged notes.
purporting to be of the Bank of England, and althcugh
they knew the parties, they have vainly endeavoured tont-,
prehentl them. On Wednesday night, at a late hour, in—
formation was given at the office, that Edward Etcbills,
one of the gang, wh6 bad been inlaying for some time, was
returned home, and that he might be found. in compine
with a man named Burgett, at a house in OM rton. Bs,rt'3,
and Shaw, the police officers, immediately set off in rgarclt
of them, and succeeded in efileting their capture at :ix
early hour yesterday morning. From these prison, ie
they obtained further information, in consequence of which.
they immediately apprehended John Choelton, a mitt spa
parently about sixty years of age, residing in Adliugtor-i
square; and having lodged him in the New Br iley, stir%
proceeded without delay to Hyde, where they selled
Robert Holford, a collier, another of the gang, and after s
night of meet active exertion, lodged him also in the NNW
, Bailey, at ten o'clock yesterday morning. linen the petaxx
I of Chorlton were found twenty forged notes for a each,
wrapped up in a dirty handkerchief, and four skeleton I eye.
The notes are tolerably well executed, but they are such
a practised eye would immediately detect : they are signet!,
"C. Phillips," and "A. Corlett." (instead of "
Consett,") with shining jayan ink, and the number, ate
engraved on the copper plate, instead of being executed ill
stereotype.--Much praise is, duo to the police officers foe
their promptness and activity in the apprehension of this
gang, for there can be no doubt that their nefarious pra
, heel have been carried on successfully for a caualeara*
