One of the mercantile men of the City who were plun-
dered by Lewis Augustus Bennet, some time ago, of vari-
ous sums of money, waited upon the Loan MAyoe yester-
day, for the purpose of informing his Lordship that in all
probability before this time that individual and his brother,
Peter Bennet, were in the custody of the American autho-
rities, as there was reason to conclude from the following pa-
ragraph in a letter just received from New York, dated the
15th of September :—" The police were ordered to search
all vessels from England for Bennet. The vessel by which
he was supposed to have sailed has not arrived, but is hourly
expected. The Lord Mayor's warrant and other documents
have been placed in the hand of the authorities, who have
given directions for the most vigilant search."
Lewis Augustus Bennet was, it may be recollected by
many of our readers, a general merchant of respectability,
and has been three years well known on the Royal Ex-
change as a medium through which unexceptionable bills to
a great amount were introduced to the market. The punc-
tuality with which all the transactions in which he was con-
cerned were met placed his character beyond all question,
and with that character he succeeded without difficulty in
committing frauds to the amount of at least 60,0001. One
house in Paris was plundered by him of 4,000/. Messrs.
Gifford and Price, spice merchants, in Suffolk-lane, suffered
to the amount of 2,000/., and a great. number of mercantile
persons, of whom several, we understand, had but lately
commenced business, have had cause to regret that the con-
fidence repo'sed in him by some of the most substantial men
was so great as to induce them to follow the example.
A warrant was applied for at the time Lewis Augustus
Bennet was missed from. London, after having committed
those frauds, against his brother, Peter Bennet, who adopted
the name of Peter Blake, for having forged an indorse-
ment to a bill of exchange, dated Marseilles, 21st May,
1836, signed Le Jeune, and directed to Messrs. E. Ed-
wards and Co., 8, Great St. Helen's•place, London, for the
payment of 1921. 10s., to the order of Le Jeune, with in-
tent to defraud the banking house of Stone, Martin and
Stone. It was ascertained by Roe the officer that the two bro-
thers left England together. The officer traced two persons,
the description of whom exactly corresponded with that of
the accused individuals, to Liverpool, on 6th of August,
and found that they had set off a short time before his ar-
rival from the King's Arms Inn, in Castle-street, in a hack-
ney coach, with the professed intention of going upon the
Manchester Railroad. The officer afterwards learned that
the two persons of whom he had learned so much had sailed
for New York, where it appears there are gentlemen who
are now aware of all the circumstances, to whom the Ben-
nets are well known, and by whom they have, it is presumed,
by this time been pointed out.
