THE EXCHEQUER BILL FRAUD.
Bylt reference to the Acts 3 and 4 William IV., c.. 65,
and 48 Geo. lIL, c. 1, it will be perceived that the mode
of preparing and-issuing Exchequer bills is to be itt all
respects regulated by the Treasury ; from which it ap-
pears-Ist, That if there has been any " lapsus" in the
system, which has given facility for fraud, Lord Mont-
eagle is nowise responsible for it, as his duty is confined
in this matter to obeying the directions of the 'Treasury ;
and secondly, that Lord Monteagle is-equally free from
the blame given him by the Times of this morning for delay,
.ceeing that, by the Acts referred to, he was not autho-
rised to make any alteration in the mode of issuing, or
to affix any stamp, or such like, until directed to do so
by the Lords of the Treasury ; which the Whole tenour
of the scanty official notices hitherto published shows he
was not directed to do any earlier than he has done.—

FROM THE EVENING PAPERS OF SATURDAY.
GLOBE.—The speech of Mr. Spencer, the leading
counsel for M'Leod, together with the vigilance and:
zeal he and the learned gentlemen associate with him
in conducting the defence. of the prisoner, employed
throughout the whole of the protracted trial, show how
perfectly gratnitous and ungenerous was the insinuation
of the Times, that the ease of the accused wouleriustain
damage because placed in the hands of members of the
American Bar. The designation given by that journal
to the trial itself was equally unjust and insulting. The
trial was no ":farce"—no mere pantomimic display, fur-
nished for the amusement. of the weakness, or for the
gratification of the vanity; of the Feople of Americe.
We have looked with great care through the whole pro-
ceedings ; and are—from a sense of justice to the tri-
bunal by which the cause so pregnant with matter to
kfluence the Judge, the Counsel, and the Jury—
compelled to admit that the proceedings were con-
ducted with as march :dinity and Mina: tiality as could-
have been exhibited in any cause submltted to the:ad-.
indication of the highest court of justice in this country,.
The defence of 4114Leod was:Placid on three grounds.
• each of which .was most ably sustained by his Counsel.
First, that whatever• consequences resulted from the
attack on, and destruction of, the Caroline by the Bri-
tish, those consequences were justified by the character
of that vet.sel, and the service in which she was avow-
edly embarked. Secondly, that the American Govern-
ment having treated the destruction of the Caroline
Within. its territory as a breach of the law of nations,
and having demanded reparation and satisfaction of the,
British Government on account of it, the British Go-
vernment having adopted the act, and held itself re-
sponsible to that of America for it—the responsi-
bility of the individual passed to his Government.

THE OLD AND THE NEW SYSTEM OF THE EMCEE-
QUER.—Under the old system, the " Office for the Issu-
ing of the ExcheqUer Bills," was a branch of the Audi-
tor's Office, under the superintendence of the Chief Clerk
(the Auditorship being a sinecure). Orders for the ma-
nufacture of the peculidr paper on which Exchequer Bills
are printed were given by the Senior Clerk of the Office
for the Issue of Exchequer Bills with " the cognisance"
of the Chief Clerk of the Auditor: the paper Itself was
Made " under the very strict inspection of a supervisor
deputed by the Auditor to attend the paper-mill during
the process; who, among other precautions which he is
charged to exercise, is to take care that no single sheet of
the paper shall exist beyond the qudntity transmitted to
the auditor";" and a similar process was undergone
for preparing the copper-plates, and printing the im-
pressions, except that the printing took place. at the
Exchequer, under " a similar superintendence."
Under 'such a system, it seems impossible that frau-
dulent issues could have taken place without speedy
detection, unless by collusion between the Auditor's re-
presentative and the head. clerk of the office fur issuing

"Merit ; lie being, id point of fact, far distant from the
scene. This was shown to be the case by numerous
unexceptional:le witnesses, who were examined for the
defence. The reply on the part of the prosecution and
the Judge's charge to the Jury, are net given in the
American papers. The Jury, after deliberating half an
hour, returned a verdict. of Not Guilty. The result
seems to have given general satisfaction. Even those
who predicted, and possibly desired, a different termini:-
fon, neither question the impartiality of' the trial, ncr
impugn the justice of the verdict.
STANDARD.— We think that the event of
M•Leod's trial mutt have an effect in both countries
valuable even beyond the termination of a long-pro-
tracted, an angry, and dangerous dispute. In England
we wililearn to distinguish more accurately than perhaps
we have been in the habit of distinguishing, between the
several classes of American citizens—between the in-
telligent and moral class, who, though unhappily ren-
dered, by unalloyed democratical institutions, and by
the abandonment of religion as a national object,
proportionably less numerous than they are in England,
constitute, n-xerthelets, a large division of the Ameri-
can community—we must learn by the event of Mr.
ti'Leod's trial, we say, to distinguish between this class
and the godless rabble of mere political savages—the
spawn of national indifference to religion, and of an ex-
tremely democratic system of government. On the
other side of the Atlantic, the same distinction cannot
pass unmarked, or without a profitable result. The
good men of the commonwealth cannot look without
shame to the utter groundlessness of the lie upon
ivhich agitation has been kept alive in the northern
States for more than two or three years—of the lie to
which American honour has been committed during
that period, and which, had it
,prevailed in their
courts of justice, must have embroiled the whole
of the North American continent in a war, the
only certain effect of which Would be the break-
ling up of the commonwealth, and the commence-
, ment of anarchy anvils the States, of which a
faint typo has presented itself in the almost desola-
tion of the late Spanish American States. And all
from what unworthy cause? The villainy of a set of
wretches of whom the New York Commercial Adver-
tiser speaks in but just terms of indignation :—" In
the manner in which some of them swore, was evinced
a most awful picture of the depravity to which the hu-
man mind can be brought." We have such villains in
our own United Kingdom, as too many trials have
proved—but hero is the difference. Our institutions
prevent that they can ever exercise the influence exer-
cised by the hunters of Mr. M'Leod's blood.

airci tire liest Of paper-makers, engravers,
'lwo -thob:,..,important, questions, therefore, arise.- Were
these precautionary checks of the old Exchequer trans-
ferred to the new ? If they were not, the facility
offered to. fraudulent issues is as obvious as the scanda-
lous neglect towards the public. If the same processes
against fraud were unthrs!ood to be adopted, then it
becomes important to trace the chronology of the framidu-
lent issues. If they have occurred since the remodelling
of the office, there is a fair presumption that.greater
negligence (if not collusion) must rest somewhere than
was found in the old Exchequer. At all events, the
public have a right to be informed, at' the close of the
investigation, whether the old or any other checks exist
in the office ; and if so, by what agency they could have
been defeated.
DISCOVERY OF THE EXCHEQUER BILL FRAUD.—It llaS
been known for many month's; that parties have been in
the habit of borrowing large sums of money on the secu-
rity of Exchequer bills, which, it now. appears, are all
forged or spurious, at very high rates of interest, fre-
quently paying from 6 to 10 • per cent. interest -upon the
loan, while it will be seen above that the securities them-
selves do not yield more than 34-per cent. A great anXiety
was always manifested by the parties borrowing to secure
the return of the identical bills deposited as security ; and
as they have always hitherto been enabled to pay off' one
loan by raising another, it is believed that none of the
bills fiave ever been sold. in the market. The multipli-
city of the loans at length raised suspicion ; and some of
the capitalists becoming alarmed, refused to continue their
advances. It was therefore necessary that-fresh lenders
should be found, to prevent • the necessity of the sale of
the bills, and probable discovery of the fraud. Among
the persons so applied to, was a wealthy member of the
Stock Exchange ; who, upon being asked whether he was
desirous of advancing money upon 20,0001. Exchequer
bills at 6 per cent. for three months, expressed his wil-
lingness to do so, provided he was sure of the respect-
ability of the party requiring the loan. It • was
then, prepoaed .to extend the amount ,to 60,0001.; at
which he hesitated ; and finally declined, when, upon
the name of the intended borrower being disclosed, he
found that he also is a member of the Stock Exchange,
between whom and himself an acquaintance existed, and
who, supposing the transaction to have been regular,
needed not. the intervention of a third party, to conclude
the arrangement. Suspicion being thus aroused, inquiry
ensued; and it appeared that many bankers and capi-
talists had advanced money upon Exchequer Bills, in
sums varying from 2,000/. or 3,000/. to 20,000/. or even
40,0001.
The gentleman in question lost no time in communi-
cating with the Chancellor of the Exchequer ; stating
that, from the nature of the transactions connected with
these Exchequer bills, there was a reasonable ground for
supposing that some forgery or fraud had been committed
in the issue. His communication was promptly attended
to : Mr. Goulburn 'immediately granted him an inter-
view; and the result was the commencement of an in-
vestigation, in which, after tracking the operations of
several inferior agents, the bills were all traced to an in-
dividual filling a subordinate situation in one of the
Mining Companies in the City; and he without hesita-
tion named, as his employer, a gentleman who has been
long known in the neighbourhood of the Stock Exchange
tte-atl.aktaio-Slifelltat= in. Spanish
,sjga and
_lvrto
gained notoriety by his connexion with the mitcria--
tempt of Prince Louis Napoleon in the August of last year.
THE EXCHEQUER BILL FRAUD.—Every moment
brings to light, some circumstance more extraordinary
than another connected with the Exchequer bill fraud.
It now appears that the spurious bills have been in
circulation for three or four years ; and during that
period, at least three exchanges have occurred at the
Exchequer Bill-office, and, consequently, one set of bills
must have been as many times withdrawn from circula-
tion and fresh ones issued. There is also little doubt
that a great portion of the money employed in the expe-
dition of Louts. Napoleon was raised by way of loan upon
the bills in question. The exposure of the mode of con-
ducting business in the Exchequer Bill-office, conse-
quent upon the discovery of this fraud, proves that the
system is most absurd and preposterous. The forms for
Exchequer bills are, it appears, bound up in books
in a manner similar to bankers' checks ; and when
numbered, signed, and filled up, are cut out with a
knife of a peculiar form, which gives the margin a
wavy outline. It appears that the only test of the
accuracy of the bill is the correspondence of its number
with that filled in on the margin of the book,
and the fitting of the bill itself into the place from which
it is cut—which is called, in Exchequer language,
" agreeing with the contrefOil." From what follows,
and for the truth of which we pledge ourselves, it is clear
that there exists scarcely any test of the accuracy of the
bills. Yesterday morning a gentleman from a West-end
banking-house attended at the Exchequer Bill-office, in
accordance with the first notice issued, and presented a
number of bills for examination which, on being com-
pared with the contrefoils, were found correct. He re-
quested to have the bills stamped ; but was informed by
the clerks that it could not be done. He then saw Lord
Monteagle, and reiterated his request : it was refused by
his Lordship, on the ground that he had no instructions
from the Chancellor of the Exchequer ; but, his Lord-
ship remarked, there was no cause for uneasiness, as the
bills corresponded with the contrefoils. The banker
said, all he wanted was his Lordship's assurance that the
bills were genuine.. Lord Al onteagle replied, " Ido not
say that they are genuine: I only say that they agree with
he contrefoil."

The Rates of this Office, founded on the most accurate ob-

consistent with perfect security.
One-fifth of the ascertained profits of 'the five preceding
years.is divided between the policy-holders and shareholders ;
three-fourths to the former, and one-fourth to the latter. The
remaining four-fifths are set apart 'to cuter into the average of
the succeeding years, and thus to providelagainst unforeseen
Contingencies.
The first division of pr€fits took place on the 13th of 11lay,
1840, When a reduction tri. G 1 per Cent. was declared en _the

• THE CORPORATION.
DUBLIN, OCT. 28.--A rumour had been for scree time in
circulation that it was the intention of the old Corporation to
cap the climax of their iniquity by retaining possession of the
Mansion-house, in defiance of law and the will of the citizens
of Dublin, and that the " No Surrender " principle would be
re-enacted at the Mayoralty House, by its present possessor.
In consequence the_
this report, a deputation of the new Town
Councillors waited yesterday upon Sir Kingston Eames, to as-
certain his intentions. His reply eras perfectly satisfactory hav-
ing declared that he considered himselffunetus officio, andwould
take charge of the corporate property only till his successor
was appointed. The result of the elections gives a majority of
47 to the Liberal. The Liberal party have gained a still more
signal triumph in Cork, the Conservatives having got but six
out of sixty-four—the number of Town Councillors for that
important town. I wish the results of the registries were
equally favourable. In Belfast the Conservatives have a majo-
rity of sixteen, and in Sligo, Kells, and Trim, they have also
considerable majorities.
The state of the weather here has been far some time of the
most inauspicious kind, and it is supposed to have materially
injured the potato crop. The poor people will be subjected
this winter to a pressure of want of food that has not been felt
for many years, and this while abundance of wheat is in the
country, but which those who are said to be protected by the
Corn-laws will not be able to purchase.

is ordered to- be fitted out for China immediately, and it

AUTION.—The extraordinary demand for
PARR'S LIFE PILLS has induced several shopkeep-
ers, of mean and dishonest principles, to try to impose on the
incautious various counterfeits composed of the most per-
nicious ingredients, merely for the sake of reaping an extra
profit, totally regardless of the dreadful consequences which
must ensue.
Observe, that each Box of the genuine medicine has pasted
round it the Government Stamp, in which is engraved these
words, PARR'S LIFE PILLS, in white letters on a red
ground. None other can be genuine.
In no instance has this invaluable medicine failed to effect a
perfect cure where due patience and perseverance has been ex-
ercised. Read the following
EXTRAORDINARY CASE.—Mrs. Joseph Simpson has
been severely afflicted, for the last 30 years, with a violent
cough and difficulty of breathing. The affliction has been so
severe that she could not fulfil her domestic obligations. She
took cold when only 15 years old, and the cough never left her
.till she took Parr's Life Pills. She had tried almost every kind
of medicine, and had taken laudanum in large quantities, but
nothinc, afforded relief.
She heard of Parr's Pills about last Christmas, and as soon
as she had taken about half a box she found herself completely
cured, and was never afflicted in the slightest manner during
the severe weather that followed, and is now better in health
than she has ever been in her life.
This cure does indeed appear miraculous, but for the satis-
faction of the most incredulous, she has kindly consented to
answer any inquiries, either by personal application, or by letter
addressed "Mrs. Joseph Simpson, Church-hill Close, Old
Lenton, near Nottingham.

FALMOUTH, SATURDAY.—Her Majesty's
steamer, Styx, put into this harbour, last night, with Sir
Charles Bagot on board. It appears that off Cape Clear,
she experienced dreadful weather, which damaged the ma-
chinery, and she was consequently obliged to put back.
She was assisted into port by the Rapid steamer.

4,000 to 100 agst Dirce colt, 1,000 to 15 agst Joanna
colt, 1,000 to 10 agst Moss Trooper, and 7,000 to 70 agst
Gone-away.
There is some talk of the Criterion Course being
altered, to start at the Ancaster mile-post, and finish at
the Duke's stand; this would give the jockeys more room
to pull up, without doing away with the character of the
race ; the difficulty of stopping two yrs-olds is well
known, and would make this a very desirable change.
Would: it not improve the Cambridgeshire Course if the
start took place in a direct line with the top? It mightbe
effected by placing the post opposite the Round Course
stables, about fifty yards on the town side of the ditch.
Lord George Bentinck's horses will in future be trained
by Kent (the Duke of Richmond's trainer) and will be
removed to Goodwood forthwith.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.
SHERIFFS' COURT, Oct 30.

CLARKE V. HOLMES AND OTHERS.
This was an action brought to recover damages for
false imprisonment. The defendant was the Iligh Bailiff
ere
for the borough of Southwark, and the damages
laid at 3001.
Mr. CHAMBERS, in stating the plaintiff's case, said it
was one which called strongly for the interference of the
Court. The plaintiff was a person in humble life, but
respectable in his position, and the defendant was High
Bailiff for the borough of Southwark, in w capac
itwas his duty, through his agents, to execute the de-
crees of the Borough Court of Bequests. A decree hav-
ing issued from the Court against a person of the same
name as the plaintiff, it was placed in the hands of the
defendant's officer, named liolmes, who arrested the
