NORTHERN CIRCUIT.—York, July 11.

RAILWAY FRAUD.—A trial upon three several in-
dictments for fraud in respect to railway shares by a
railway sharebroker, which has occasioned great interest
in a certain circle, and which had been postponed at the
desire of the itemised from the last assizes, was, by ap-
pointment, brsught on to-day. The court was full
beyond precedent, the prissner and his prosecutor
having been Jong on very intimate terms, and both men
of respectability.
Herman Julius Marcus, bite a sharebroker in the town
of Leeds, out on hail since last assizes, appeared at the
bar charged with fergieg a transfer of shares in the
London and Croydon Railway, intending thereby to de.
fraud Mr. Lupton, the late mayor of Leeds.
Mr, HALL, Recorder' of Leeds, statsd the case, which
will be best detailed in the language of the following
witnesses, examined after the forged documents were put
in and formally proved :
The clerk of the London and Croydon Railway Corn-
pany moved the transfer of the shares in July, August.
and October last. -
The reth:risndf.; of writing
of the prisoner, as attesting witness
to th
the shares, was proved by the clerk to
the firm of Marcus (the prisoner), Naylor, and Co.; the
name of Danton Lupton, in the transfer, was also, he
said, in Marcus's handwriting.
Cross-examined—Mr. Lipton had, in August la t.
looked at toe company's book. Saw the entry of it,
transaction. He ea‘t up the account, and said there was
a balance of profit on the shares, hut remarks4l,
are not mine.' Mr. Lupton and the prisoner were on
terms of close acqusintanee. Prisoner came in soon
after, and was told what Mr, Lupton had said. Prisoner
renliecl. " Well, if he won't have a profit I cannot help
its° The entries were for 100 shares. sold to Danton
Lupton, conditionally upon the preamble of ' the Ports-
neaith Attoosphi•rio Railway Bill being proved, at
231. 2:i. 6.1. per share ; for 10 shares. at 221. 103, ; for 50
shares, at 241. 7s. 61; and for 40. at 251.129. 6d. The
accounts were alt stated in the ledger, where Mr. Lupton
saw them, and also that the profit was •170/. on them.
Besides these the firm had several other transactions
with the prosecutor, and eight of them were for some
1,500 i, and subsequent to the transactions entrnarated
by the witness. They sometimes sold or transferred
2,000 shares a day in the (Bee of Marcus, Naylor.
and Co.
D. Lupton said—l am a merchant, residing, in Leeds,
and employed Marcus, Naylor, cad Co. as stiarebrokers.
I always dealt with them for ca-h. I never have
authorised the prisoner to buy or sell for me
any London. and Croydon shares. The signature

theme li:
did represent to me that he could make good bar-
slties for me in the market.- I then told him he
might purchase for me scrip to the amount of 1,0001.
Before that I had had but one share transaction with
him, when he bought Lancaster and Carlisle shares for
1,0001. for me. I never authorised any buying of London
and Croydon shares. When he bought or sold for me,
he informed me that day or ths following, and I gave
him the money. I told his clerk to look over my account,
and when I saw that entry of the L :radon and Croydon
shares, I said they were not mine, though put down is
me; and I crossed the entry out in pencil. I met the
pris,-,ner on the stairs war out, and mentioned this
entry. HA sal. it was a mistake.
C:oss-examined—l have ben on • terms of frieruPy
inVreourse with the prisoner. The firm is since bank-
rupt. The prisoner stood very high in L eels as a patrol;
of literary and scientific institutions and literary p.-rsons.
I believe that on one riccasion I told him to purchase
scrip for me. The order was nut to exceed 1,0001. in
that case.

Re-examined—l em quite certain that authority was
only to purchase 'scrip. The signature, "D. Lupton," is
an imitaioa or copy of my own name, as I write it.
Iti reply to Justice CRESSWELL—He never sold scrip
fur me without my limiting the price.
Mr. Naylor, late partrn r in the business with the pri-
soner, said the transfer deeds had passed in the usual
course through hi: hands ; but the purchase and :ale of
the London and Croydon Railway shares bad been
transacted by the prisoner alone.
Cross.extimined—On this occasion when the ielline
broker sent to witness for the principal's names the pri-
soner was absent, and the witness sent the name of Mr.
Lupton as the principal. This he attempted to acceunt
for by saying that there was then a great press of busi-
ness in their office, and it was not unlikely that such
mistake might have occurred unwittingly. He admitted
that the signature to the transfer, "D. Lupton," was in
the prisoner's handwriting.
The cater of the Court read the de*.ds of transfer of
shares. They were to appearance signed, sealed, &e..
by Dsnton Lupton, in the presence of H. J. Marcus, by
whom the execution of the deed was witnessed and also
signed.

This was the case for the prowentinn.
Mr. Sergeant WILKINS said he bad been relieved

much of his anxiety as the ease proceeded, from the de-
velopment of its singular history, upon which he believed
he might safely rely for a verdict of acquittal for his
client. Their extensive transactions together, and the
intimacy subsisting between the prisoner and the prose-
' cutor, might well have induced Mr. Marcus to believe
that he was justified in making an advantageous purchase
for a friend so largely engaged as Mr. Lipton was in
railway speculations. By it the prisoner got nothing f,,r
himself, and Mr. Lupton aright have taken the profit of
it, had it not been considered preferable, strangely
enough, to institute these criminal proceedings. What
could have there been criminal or fraudulent in contem-
plation of the prisoner by the course he had pursued ?
His own name in the transfer would have done just as well
as that of Lupton. In fact, no one had beeu defrauded,
nor was it, as it turned out, even possible the prosecutor
could have been defrauded in these transactions. There
had been no effort made when the signatures to the deeds
were seen to conceal the resemblance of the hand-
writing in both instances, which clearly aopeared to be
written by the same person in style and character. Mr.
Lupton, at the period when, in August last, he in-
spected the prisoner's books, thought there was nothing
blameable in the entry of these shares to him; for he
subsequently employed Marcus to transact other
business of the same kind for him to the amount of

1,5004 worth of shares. No attempt had been made to
smooth difficulties, remove suspicion, or conceal any-
thing, though the prisoner Inuit know that in the way of
business the dividend- warrants must be cent to Mr. Lup-.
ton, as owner of the shares, by the London and Croydon
Railway-office clerks, which would at once have disclosf,d
the whole transaction, had any attempt been made at
concealment. _ _

Most respectable witnesses, including Mr. Baines. Lai-
M.P. ; Mr. Lucceck, Mayor of Leeds ; and R. Fl oat,
Esq., were called into the box, and stated they had
_known the prisoner long, and he had always borne an
unimpeachable et,aracter as a man of strict honour and
, integrity.
Mr. Justice CnEsSwELL "said; if the Learned Counsel
for the prosecution wished it, he would now leave the
case to the jury, aed reserve the point for the consid,..
ration of the judges hereafter whether any evidence of
the fraud imputed had been adduced? He confessed he
could not see how Mr. Lupton nor yet 'the railway com-
pany could be defrauded in tin se transactions, which
would entitle Mr. Lupton to the dividends on the shares,
for which shares he incurred no liability, the regikitrY.,if
• the shares in his 'name eonstituting a title in Kim. The
company could not have been defrauded had the trans-
fer been to a mere pauper. It had no claim en the
shareholders for further advances, the railway having
been, it was well known, in activity and open for some
years, and all the calls necessary most likely were
paid up.
Mr. HALL said he should not, after this opinion of the
case from his Lordship's lips, press the care.
His LORDSHIP told the jury it was his impression that
no such consequence could, according to the evidence
submitted in the cause, hue arisen. There was no
evidence of the fraud with s, hid) the prisoner was
charged by the indictment. He should, therefore, advice
the jury to acquit the prisoner; who, being acquitted,
was again arranged on the other tw., indictments, on
which no evidence, however, was offered by Mr. Hall,
who was assisted by Mr. Boothby in these prucetdings,
and the prisoner was acquitted.
On his discharge he was surrounded by numerous
friends in the hall, who cordially greeted him upon the
occasion of his acquittal.

' The latter case had been specially appointed for this
as will be seen,
The Learned JUDGE, in t:is charge to the grand jury,
said, he had the opportunity of congratulating them
that, up-m the present ocetreion, they really would have
As many as seven or eight cases to try. They would,
'in fact, have something to do, which was somewhat
miraculous. There were seventy-two of the jury, all of
whom had been brought to that court hitherto to do
nothing. Upon the last occasion the wid, seventy-two
had been in attendance, and on their arrival it had been
found that there was but one prisoner for trial, and
upon the bill of indictment being taken before the
grand jury, that body bad thrown it out. There had,
therefore, not been any c" for trial; so that the
county had been put to the expense, and the
jury and officers of the court had been put t,
the trouble of coming there unnece;sarily; whiht
bad the patty been sent for trial to Clerkenwell,
there would have been comparatively neither expense
nor inconvenience. However, here they now were with
these seven persons tolry, and their trials would cost the
county abeut 151. each, whereas if they had been taker
to Cterkenwell, the expense to the county would n-t
have been more than about as many shillings each. For

the sittings in that !Awe would he allowed to die away.
The maintenance of that Court was a heavy expvnse to
the county, and the salaries alone trached to the house
were not i-ss than 500/. per annum. A. 4 he hr :d told
them already, there were but seven prisoners for trial,
and he-need scarcely advise that they should dispose of
them as quickly as the nature of the cases would permit,
and then they would the more speedily be able to return
to their business.

afterwards the police sent informAion that the prisoner
was in custody, with the stolen proerty on his person.
The 501 bank-note and tonne of the j,sellcry now pre-.
(laced witness could identify as the General's property..
The prisoner's solicitor put some questions to Mrs.
General Groivenor, and elicited that it was th,o duty of
thue prisoner to have, occasionally, the keys of the two
desks cut of N 5 hi(11 the property hid been ptiucipally
stol n. Toe i had an .oppertuuity of seeing the
property in in eonsequenco of having been in-
trusted with the keys of the desks.

Police-sergeant Gray, C 10, said, in consequence o
information he received, he went to Grosvenor.strce
on Saturday last, and found the prisoner in a cab quit,
drunk. He took the prisoner to the station-house, um

on searching him 65/. in notas were found in differen
pocket 4, and a (pi ;ntity of jewellery. among which were
a ring and a sva. ; there was a 501: bank-note amongs
the money.

(;eni:ral GrosverFir identified the note, the ring,
and the send.

Pclice-sergeant Gray said, on making further inquiry,
he found a bunch of ,eais at the City of Hereford public-
house, and a miniature and other things at the Hercules
hllars public-house, Greek-street.
On cross-examination by the solicitor, Gray said the
prh,ner was insensibly drunk when first taken into
custody. When sober, and told of the nature of tho
charge, the prisoner said he could not tell what had in
duce(' him to take the propert% from the house, except
r. 0 make mse! f "to .k big and flub."

that he and big companions had carried on a system e
infamous extortion in the Park for a length of time.

Mr. MALTBY directed the pris, 'tier to be remanded t'

WORSHIP-STREET.
A young man, named John Kemp. war placed at the:
bar before Mr. Broughton, charged with having burgh!.
riously entered the premises of Mr. Thomas Layla,d,
leather-dresser, in High-street, Shoceditch, and stol.,n
gold watch, value of twenty guineas, a quantity of silver
spoons, and other articles.
It appeared from the evidence that on the night of
Thursday last some thieves effected an entrance into
the prosecutor's horse through the staircase window.
and after ransacking all the lower apartments, aid
selecting a d.,v,ri sliver spoons, and other property.
proceeded to a bedroom on the secoLd floor, in which
female servant was sleeping. with two of her master's

children, and actually displacing a gold watch which
WAS hanging over their heads, made good their retreat
without disturbing any member of the family. In-
formation of the robbery was. given to the police. and a
reward of 5/. having been offered for the capture of the
burglar), a man named Oswald Lawrenze, who had liitn•l
self a short time since been in custody for a shinier
offence, in the same neighbourhood, but dischirged.
made the following communication to the police, which
result., d in the prisoner's apprehension.
Lawrence now stated, that while passing through
Petticoat-lane, on the morning after tLe robbery, he saw
the prisoner unit a notorious thief namel Cherry, in tlit
act of examining a handsome gold watch, in the front
a Jew storeilealer's shop. Witness was not aware ir
that time of the burglary having been committ d. Inv
on afterwards rea•ling the handbill di-scribing the watel,
and spoons carri.sl off by the thieves, he suspected the)
were the same. and proceeded to a house in ‘Vheel-r-
-stri et, Spitalfields, which is the resort of such nototi.,u,
chsracters, and there m.t the pris.nr•r's accomplo
Cherry, whom he had before seen in possession of thi
watch, On entering into conversation at d asking him
if he had sold the watch aclvintageously, the man re
plied that he had only got 31. for it. ; and on his alsi
men jotting the spooL,s, he answered that they Were
an antigusted fas• i in, only fit to melt ; that they wer.
deposed of for a tew and expressed hi, surprise
at Eas knowing. any ttii,g :wont the property, but said he
supp,sed that Kemp (the prisoner) had told him. He
assented to this observation, and immediately informed
the police of all the facts he had elici:ed; as he was
anxious to clear iris character from the stain that had
been cast upon it by his being unjustly charged with the
other burglary.

Sergeant Barker mentioned a conclusive fact against
the prisoner, which was, that on taking him into custod)
and telling im the nature of the offence he was charged
with, he asked him why he had not also captured the
man Cherry, as had likewi,e been concerned in the
robbery. The sergeant added, that a second burglar)
had been committed on the same night in the prewisei,,
of a neighbouring traiesman named Bennett, where (hi,
thieves had been disturbed, end retreated so pricipi
totoiy, th t 1111P__ or them fist] left his shies behind him.
These shins were afterwards adjusted to the feet of the
prisoner Kemp, who had on an entirely new pair when
taken, and found to fit him exactly.
The prisoner earnestly denied ull participation in Mr.
Layland'A bur Oar), which he said had been perpetrated
by the tnan Cherry; but
Mr. BaorouTos expressed hims,^lf satisfied with the
testimony as against the prisoner himself; and ordered
hiin to be brought up again next week for the completion
of the evidence.

A RT-UNION.—COM PETITION IS: SCULPTURE.—The
committee of the Art-Union of London, extending the sphere
re its useful influence as its means increased, announced some
time back " a premium of 5001. fors group or single figure in
marble, to be competed for by finished models in plas;er, the
Lze of the intended work—the height of the kure wh,er
elect, to be not less than 4 ft. 6 in." The competing models.
twenty in number, were on Monday exhibited to the public,
in the concert-room of the Princess's Theatre. After an
inspection of them, we are not able to say that they tend
much to enhance our exLting reputation in this walk of
art, or warrant any immediate hope of the advent of a
brighter state of things for the future. The figures and groups
are up,,n the ordinary subjects, and executed according to the
conventional rules. For instance, "Iris Descending,"
"A Bard," "Tire Contek between the Minstrel and the
Nightingale," " Laternal Affection," "Sleep—a Sister and
Brother," "Innocence," "Narcissus," " Hero and Leander,"
" L'Allegro."&c. The task of awarding the prize does not
rest with vs, but we may state that the four works which
pleased us best are, No. 6, " Sleep—a Sister and Brother;"
8, " A Dancing Girl Rep' Bing ;" 9, " A Deer-stalker in
Pursuit;" and 10. " Innocence." Indeed the committee
judging from the places allotted to them, seem to have in-
clined to a similar opinion. Truth tc say, however, they
are chiefly pleasing by compari,on with some rough and
disagreeable presentiments on either side. They all are
wanting in poetry and thought—many of their in execution
also.

THE MURDER OF THE POLICE-CONSTABLE IN

the police-constable of the K division, near this place, I've re-

murderers had brn apprehended. With regard to the per-
petrators of the outrage, it may be said ia justice to the ms.,
