the discovery was.triade, it was burning in various
parts, and its progress, which:appeared to be wid,
threatened destrudion to the whole extent, amount-
ing to Upwards of zho acres.—Mr.. Miller, who
was than in a field at some distance, _ was. the first
person who observed The fire. He instantly dis_
patched men in all.direetions to alarm the inhabi-
tants, and in a very .shorc,time vast numbers, near
to 300; were CollOed; who exerted themselves
with astonishing iihirgy.' Many of them were at
times in-very 'laza Mons
_si tuations, being surrognded
by fife ,on all sides, -.but fortunately they exaped
from those-perils. They generally took their posi-
tions to windward of the fire, and followed it,
and by incessant beating with green branches, cut,
ting with axes, and treading it down, they happily
succeeded in. stopping its progress, aboitt hail'past
six o'clock in the evening. We are happy to hem.
that no lives were lost, and only one or two. .per.

GLASGOW, APR IL Ij.

The Circuit Court proeceded.to the trial of Fravc;J
Adams, accused of forging the subscription of James'
Dunlop, of Linwood Mill, to a Promissory Note
for 8251. sterling, payable to himself forty-eight
weeks after date.

Colonel M'Kerrel, of the Paisley Volunteers, was.
called, who &roiled, that sometime ago,' the Pri-
soher came to him to ask his advice about matters
of importance, Which was about money Mr. Daolop
owed Min. The 'witness remarked, that Mr. Dun-
lop would surely not ote him wages ; he said no,
there wits a transaaion' about Irish Bills he had given,
to Mr. Thinlop.-L-The Witness 'asked the Prisoner,
if Mr. Dunlop had given him'any'aCknowledgment
for them ; he-said he had, and that he had got a
Promissory Note for 8251. sterling, &dueling so
per Cent. 'Which wa to be allowed for negoeiatiog_
the Bills: The form'of the Bill was, " WOW,

weeks after date; to F. Adams, at: the pay,,
Ho-
tel; GlaigoW; 8251. sterling, for value received, in
two Irish Bank Bills of Five Hundred Pounds each.
Signed James' Dunlap.'"che Witness asked- the
Prisoner how he. canine by such a sums of money ; he
said, that it was found on a Rebel in Ireland ; that
he had bought a-black stock from a soldier who was
at theliattle of Balanamuck, which was about: the
neck of a Rebel in disguise, for which, he gave is'. ;
that he did not use the stock • for some time, but,
when his neckcloths were washing, -he-took.out the
stock tb use ; that it was stiff, and hit opened it
our, and found the 'Notes: -within it in .apiece -of
parchment. He then asked him if,he had kept a note
of the' Bills : he said, that if he would look at an
affidavit he then shelved, it would explain tht mat-
ter (this affidavit inter alia bore, that his wife had
inadVertently destroyed the note he kept. The
Prisoner said, 'that he had been at Glasgow to meet
Mr. Dunlop to receive the money; thane had af-
terwards written him a letter, expressing his surprize
that he 'not-attend to pay the money. He was
asked if he got an answer ; he said, he pal, and
strewed the answer, which bore, that he, Mr.' Dun..
lop, knew nothing of him, but that he might. call
Itupon him if he wanted any thing with him. He was
asked, what steps 'he meant to take; he said, he had
been consulting with a Writer about the matter,
and was to call on Mr. Dunlop. He was,desited to
call on the deponent in -his return,
,but did not.'
There was a meeting of the. parties with . Mr. Orr,
Writer in Pinsky,' who" said, if the signature was
riot
.Mr. Dunlop's, il*as the likest he had erer seen.
Mr. Dunlop denied it was his. While the Prisoner
was under examination, 'the Bill, which Was in, the
poisession of Mr. Orr, was exhibited to ihe'Prisoner,
who seized it, and put it into his pocket. Ylr. Orr
went up 'to 'force re.delivery, when 'the Priioner
took it out of his pocket, twisted it with his teeth,
and swalloWedit. Every attempt was made to•pre-
vent it going over, but without effete'}. He said to
Mr. Orr, that he was employed by Mr. bunlop to
rob him, but that he wasdetermined to destroy. the
Bill rather than that he should get possession of it.
Surgeon was sent for,• who declared. that emetics
would do him no injury. Thew were administered,
,ind. the Bill vomited up.
Colonel M'Kerrel proceeded to detail several
other circumstances when he came to.-establi?lt the
.BUI, He informed the'Court, that he had, before
;the Prisoner. swallowed it, read an indoisation:or
;certificate.. to-this circa: " That if the Irish Bills
;within mentioned were not paid before the Bill fell
'due, that it _should he of no avail ; otherwise, it
!was to stand g00d,," which was signed by Adams.'
Upon this fad coming out; the Coutt. paused for
some time. Their Lordships severally delivered
their opinions, which. were, 'That it, was impossible
that, with such an indorsation, the Note could have
-been negoeiated ; hence- it would. be "inipossible to
:utter the same( Arid, the'crime of Forgery did
not consist in the mere at of adhihiting a name to
or Note of Hand,' but in .uttering Or attempt_inv.° pass such, a Bill or Note as a good. Bill or
Note,. while the person was in the knowledge. of its
:being,fdse. and forged.; consequently this case, an-
der such circumstances, could not fall within the libel.
Several of the Jurymen spoke; and tWared, . That,

was goOd fur lirtle.or nothing w:lth,such it marking
