man with him in consequence of what was said to him

at the banking house. The prisoner did not keep his
appointment, and witness did not see niin again until he
identified him amongst a number of others in Newgate
Mr. Grierson's evidence was to the effect that the
check in question was a forgery.

Mr. Mu►lins said that he oid not propose today to go
further with that case, but to open two others, and then
ask for a further remand. He called
Thomas Mitchinton, who deposed that on Saturday,
the 16th of August last, he wai boots at the White Hart
Hotel, in Bishopsgate street. In the coffee room he saw
the prisoner, who gave him a cheque to get changed for
501. It was dated 16th August, 1856, and was drawn
on Messrs. Hankey and Co., and signed "per pro Smith
and Knight, Daniel Baldwin." Witness was to bring
three 101. notes, and 201. in gold. He went to the bank,
obtained the money, and took it into the coffee room,
but the prisoner was not there. He returned in about
five minutes, when witness gave him the money, and he
gave witness 3s. for his trouble.

George English, boots at the Four Swans, Bishops-
gate-street, deposed that on Saturday, August the 16th,
he saw the prisoner in the coffee-room of:that hotel, and
he asked him to get a check changed for 1001. at Messrs.

Hankey's. He gave witness a check for 1001. drawn

on Messrs. Hankey and Co., and signed in the name of
Baldwin. He was to bring six 101. notes and the re-

mainder in gold. Witness went to the bank and ob-
tained the money, and returned with it to the coffee-ronm

of the hotel, when he found the prisoner had left. About'
five minutes after the prisoner returned, when witness
gave him the money, and he gave witness 2s. for hi■

Mr. Grierson, cashier to Messrs. Hankey and Co.,
deposed that Messrs. Smith and Knight kept an ac.
count at their bank, and that Mr. Baldwin had authority

to draw checks for them ; he paid the check produced,

and from what he had since beard he be!ieved them to

be forgeries. He stated the number of the notes given

in exchange. On Monday, the 18th August, another

check was presented for 1001., which, however, was

not paid.
Mr. Mullins said that was all the evidence he should
offer to-day, and asked for a further remand till next

Saturday.
. The Lord Mayor—Shall you then have any other
charges to prefer against the prisoner ?

Mr. Mullins—Ob, yes I There will be endless charges
brought against him.
The prisoner, who was undefended and declined say-
.

ing anything, was remanded till Saturday next.

MARLBOROUGH•STREE r.

AN EXPENSIVE LETTER.-Mr. John Fortescue, a
merchant in the city, was brought before Mr. Bingham,
on the following charge.
Charles Wyatt, a waiter at Quinn's oyster rooms, No.
40, Haymarket, stated that about ten o'clock on the
previous night the defendant and another gentleman
entered the rooms and ordered two mutton chops. While
they were being cooked he saw the defendant go up to
the looking-glass, which was over the fire-place, and
with a ring, which he held in his hand, scratch in the
middle of the glass a large letter " H." Witness re
naonstrated with the defendant, and told him he bad
spoilt the glass, and must pay for the damage, which
would be 51. This the defendant refused to do, and in
consequence was given into custody.

The defendant, in answer to the charge, said the glass
was scrawled all over with names, and he, in the fun
of the moment, thought there would be no harm in
his writing a large "II " after the name of " Bill
Sykes."

In reply to Mr. Bingham, the waiter said there
might be nine other names scratched on the glass be-
sides the defendant's " H."

Mr. Bingham said that altered the case, for if the
etter scrawled on the glass had been the first and
only one, be should have ordered the defendant to pay
the full of it ; but as there were nine other names
and letters on the glass, he (Mr. Bingham) could not,
for the sake of justice, order him to pay more than
his share, viz., 10s.

PLUNDERING A SHIP'S CARGO.—Daniel Thomas, a
man of colour, the steward of the American ship Hornet,
lying in the West India Dock, was brought before Mr.
Yardley, charged with stealing a case bottle of gin.
The prisoner was stopped by Moran, a dock constable,
as he was leaving the dock with a bottle of gin in his
possession. The ornamental label of the exporter was
on the bottle. Two other bottles of gin, labelled in a
similar manner, were found concealed under the fore
castle. A few days since two of the crew were drunk
on board, and it was ascertained that two cases of gin,
part of the cargo, had been opened, and four bottles
taken from each.

Mr. George Bartlett, the chief mate of the ship, found
three bottles of gin, which had been stolen out of a case,
in the hold, and locked them up in his cabin until the
next day, when he gave them to the captain, who
directed that they should be repacked in the case from
which they had been abstracted, but those directions
had not been complied /with.

Mr. Yardley said it was possible the steward did not
broach the cargo. If he (the magistrate) thought the
prisoner had done so, he would have punished him with
the greatest possible severity. Taking the most favour.
able view of the case the prisoner had been guilty of an
act of great dishones'y. He sentenced the prisoner to
eight days' imprisonment, and hard labour.
William Beckett, a man of colour, and cook of the
same vessel, was charged with having a pint of gin in
his possession. He was stopped as he was leaving the
West India Dock by the constable, who found a black
bottle containing a pint of gin in his possession.
Mr. Yardley said there was no doubt the prisoner had
been receiving part of the plundered cargo, and fined
him 205., which was paid.

Marcellus Wainwright, a man of colour, and cook
of the American ship Lion; also in the West
India Dock, was charged with stealing a bottle of
gin from the ship. It was found in his possession by
Moran, and he admitted having brought it from the
Lion.

Mr. Yardley fined the prisoner 203. for the unlaw-
"ul possession of the bottle of gin, which was paid.

THE BORDER COUNTRY.—An intimation, which bag
just appeared in the journals, of an application by the
Duke of Buccleuch to the court to disentail his Gran-
town and Caroline Park baronies, has given very great
satisfaction throughout his wide border domains. It
is hoped be will now extend this judicious movement
to his estates in the south, where the entail laws are
no favourites, and thus the towns, at present suffering
from an odious embargo, will obtain relief. As a
counterpoise to this, however, it is rumoured that a
very extensive emigration is contemplated next spring
from th 3 duke's Eskdale's estates. This is greatly to
be regretted, and would be quite unnecessary were
a different system of management adopted by the
landlord. That wide range of country comprehends 40,000
acres, and as there are only 134 heads of resident fami-
lies, consequently every one of these might have a com-
fortable holding of 300 acres or so at home, instead of
being driven out of a country in which they receive
little encouragement to remain. But this cannot be
accomplished, owing to a system of favouritism which
prevails in the disposal of farms, to which every consi-
deration must give way. Thue Scotland is losing the
services of a remarkably fine race of men, who would
d• honour to any country, and wide tracts in Eskdale,
Liddelsdale, and Teviotdale, at present ni.t half cilia.
'raced, are doomed, for the present, to remain unim

POLICE INTELLIGENCE. —(This Day.)

WHOLESALE FORGERY.—THE SAWARD GANG.—Jas.
Anderson, a middle-aged man, was placed at the bar
on remand, before ►he Lord Mayor and Mr. Alderman
Wire, charged with forging and uttering a bill of ex-
change for 1,0001., with intent to defraud Messrs.
Heywood and Co., bankers, 4, Lombard7street, on the
14th June last.
The prisoner is believed to have been a friend and
associate of two men, named Hood wick and Atwell,
who were tried at the October sessions of the Central
Criminal Court for forgery, found guilty, and sentenced
to transportation for life. The prisoner was privately
examined on the 20th, and is the person referred to in
the examination of Saward, which took place yesterday.
Mr. Mulling, solicitor to the committee of bankers,
appeared to prosecute.
The evidence taken at the private examination was
then read over. It stated that on the 11th Denembir
the prisoner went to the house of William Roberts, of
Oak-road, St. John's-wood, a bath-chair proprietor, and
asked him to go with a message into the city. He con-
sented, and the prisoner appointed to meet him at the
tavern near Lord's cricket-ground in a quarter of an
hour, where he was going to have a glass of ale. He
accordingly went there at the appointed time, and found
the prisoner in the parlour, who gave him a cheque for
771. 13s. 2d., dated 11th December, 1856, drawn upon
Messrs. Hawkey and Co., by Messsrs. Thomas Down
end and Co. He was to present it at the bank,
and have four ten-pound notes and the rest in gold,
and met him again at the same tavern about two hours
from that time : that being the time the witness calcu-
lated it would take him to go to the city and return with
the money. Witness presented the check, and shortly
afterwards returned to St. John's-wood, taking a police-
