BOW-STREET—(THIS DAY.)
Richard Wilsden Morris, late secretary to the Medical,
Legal, and General Mutual Life Assurance Company,
was brought up on a warrant charging him with know-
ingly uttering a forged receipt for 31 2s. 6d. He was
further charged with five similar forgeries.
Mr. Humphreys prosecuted on behalf of the company.
Mr. T. \Webb Green, barrister-at-law, and one of the
directors of the Medical and Legal Mutual Life Assu-
rance Company, said, that in February last the prisoner
was secretary to that company. At that time some
arrears of the interest on the capital of the
company were due, and it was the custom
for the shareholders to call at the office, and obtain from
the prisoner a printed form of receipt, filled up by the
prisoner, signed by the shareholder himself, and at-
tested by the prisoner. This receipt when thus completely
filled up would become a "pass" to the bankers (Messrs.
Praed and Co., of the Strand) to pay the money. He now
produced a receipt purporting to be signed by Mr.
Chalmers, one of the shareholders, for 34 2s. 6d. interest
on capital due to him in February last. That was
written on one of the printed forms, and was filled up,
signed, and attested, to the best of his belief, in the pri-
soner's handwriting. He now produced a ledger (kept
by the prisoner), in page 37 of which he found
an account of 138/. 16s. 6d. arrears of inte-
rest, due in February, and paid when applied
for in that and the succeeding mouths. fie had
examined that account with the prisoner in April last,
and he then told the prisoner that he had not vouchers
for the whole of that sum, and gave him a written list
of those persons in whose names entries were made, but
whose vouchers he had not received. In the course of *
few days the prisoner produced vouchers referring to the
accounts of those shareholders, and gave them to him.
Among the number were the five which he now produced.
They were written on the printed forma spoken of
above, and, like that of Mr. Chalmers, were, to the best
of his belief, filled up, signed, and attested in the hand-
writing of the prisoner.

A clerk, from the office of Messrs. Praed and Co.,
proved that the amount of the receipt, purporting to be
signed by Mr. Chalmers, was paid at their bank in Feb.
last.

It having been intimated that a remand would be
necessary, in order to complete the evidence on the six
charges,
Mr. JARDINE observed that the evidence in the case
of Mr. Chalmers was quite sufficient to justify a remand,
and accordingly the prisoner, who, being undefended,
declined to cross-examine the witnesses, or make ani,
statement, was remanded to this day week. He applied
to be admitted to bail, and, this being refused, burst into
tears, and was removed from the court, crying bitterly.

CLERKENWELL.—(THIS DAY.)
PILLAGING A CRICKET GROUND.— William Thomas
and John Wood, lads about sixteen years of age, were
charged before Mr. Hammond with stealing a coat, the
property of George 'lades, from the cricket-ground c"
the Brunswick Arms tavern. It appeared that the pro-
secutor was one in a match played yesterday in these
grounds, and that the play had not been left off at half'
past seven o'clock, when one of the gentlemen saw sow
lads, running from the direction of the marquee, i°
which the costs of the cricketers had been deposited.
Observing that more than one of the runaways had
coat on his arm, he gave the alarm to his friends, and. si
he himself stated, " instinctively" led the pursuit. The
boys wero first; the pursuers, tired from their day's,
sport, and as the light was fading, the thieves (except
Thomas) all escaped, and with them three new coats'
The prisoners would have got clear off had not tae
gentlemen accidentally crossing the fields from the Cale•
donian schools intercepted them, and turned the chase'
Thomas turned in amongst the brick kilns, and after
some search was caught upon the top of one of the stack°
with Mr. llailes's coat in his possession. Wood Weg
afterwards
_found hiding in the ditch of an adjoinia
field.
The prisoners in their defence said that they had
gone in the evening together across the fields for a Will"
and as they came near the Brecknock Arms, they 01
some boys running away with " a lot of coats on.
things" in their arms, several of which they were
dropping as they ran. One of them let fall Mr. Haile." ,
coat, and Thomas took it up. Whereupon some Wel
who were looking on told him to " be off with it," 5°
he took their advice.
ot
The MAGISTRATE did not think there was sufficie,,
evidence against Wood as an accessory, and according'',
discharged him, observing that the case was suspicic°
as regarded him, and cautioning him against bad COur
pany.
Thomas was fully committed.

THE SHERIFFS ELECT.—Mr. Ilousefield and Tit'
Mills, who were on 31idsummer-day elected sheriPo'
have declined to serve in the office. Mr. Bousefield ba
paid the fine, upwards of 6001. Mr. Mills, it is sa
disputed the validity of the fine, and will be 131.°A
ceeded against by the City Solicitor for the amount.
Common Hall will be held in a few days for the eleCto.o
of two other persons to serve in the office. The fineshl
such cases are appropriated to the improvement of t""e

AMERICAN Hors.—The American line of pnc",ii;
ship Independence, from New York, has brought ,;',O
bales of hops as a portion of her general cargo, ""0
growth of the United States of America. There 11!":4

States during the past spring, of the last year's grovi.to,
