Mr. Pearson, another clerk, gave similar evidence.
Mr. C. Lane deposed that the signature to the cheque, of his name,
was a forgery.
Mr. William Whiteside, solicitor, conducted the business of the New
Western Jersey Society. The prisoner was clerk to the office in Febru-
ary, 1837. Witness kept the cheque-book in an iron safe in his room,
to which the prisoner might have had access. Witness had missed
blank cheques from his cheque-book, and had no doubt that the cheque
produced had been cut out from that book. On the '2oth of February
the prisoner absented himself from the office without permission, and
witness did not see him till next day, when he was intoxicated, and wit.
ness discharged him for that reason.
Mr. Hayden was the owner *I a house in Trafalgar-street, \Val-
worth. In March, 1837, the male prisoner came to him for the purpose
of taking the house, which he did, and the female prisoner lived with
him as his wife.

This was the case for the prosecution.
Mr. PHILLIPPS was about to address the Jury for the defence, when

Lord ABINGER said, that whatever moral conviction there might be
of the prisoners' guilt, he did not think there was sufficient legal evi-
dence to justify the Jury in convicting them—the evidence did not quite
go to prove that the cheque was uttered " knowing it to have been
forged."

The prisoners were accordingly acquitted.
The male prisoner was arraigned on another charge, of forging a
cheque of 310/. on the house of Bosanquet, Hankey, and Co.

NEW COURT.
(Before the CONOMN-SERGICANT

BIGAMT.—Gcorge Cadby was indicted for marrying Sarah Cannon,
his wife Elizabeth Fortescue being then alive.
William Taylor deposed that the prisoner was married to his sister
in church on the 6th of September, 1634. She is now alive, and he
saw her so late as yesterday.
Cross-examined by Mr. BLLLANTYNE.—At the time of the marriage
his sister was not more than sixteen or seventeen years of age, and
the prisoner was about twenty.one. She lived with him for about six
weeks.

Margaret Taylor, mother of the last witness and of Elizabeth Fortescue,
was next called, and stated that she heard the prisoner was about to leave
her daughter, and went to him to demand the reason of his deserting her.
He said he would live no longer with her. She replied that in that
case he was bound to provide a home for her; upon which he said "she
might go and be d—d, and go upon the town if she liked."
Cross-examined—Her husband was present at this oonversation. He Is
not in Court to-day, but was here yesterday. Did not say to the priso.
nor that th• marriage was void, as her daughter was under age. De_
sired her daughter to break her ring in two, and throw it in his face.

Sarah Cannon stated that she was married to the prisoner on the 6th
January 1835. Lived with him till within the last four weeks, when he
sold off all the furniture which she had received from her father on her
marriage, and he left her without a home, and completely destitute.
Has a child by him, which is now about two years and a half old.
Cross-examined by Mr. BA LLANTYNE —Had a child by another person
when she married the prisoner. The prisoner told her about his mar-
riage to Fortescue about eighteen months ago, but mentioned, at the
same time, that she was gone to America, and was again raarried. Lived
with him, notwithstanding this, ever since. Tt was at witness's instance
this prosecution was instituted. Would not have taken any steps in the
matter, but for her friends.

Mr. BALLAWTYNE addressed the Jury on behalf of the prisoner, but
called no witnesses.

The Jury, without hesitation, pronounced the prisoner guilty.
