POLICE INTELLIGENCE-(THIS DAY.)

MANSION-HOUSE.—FORGING A BILL OF Ex-
CHANGE FOR £46o.—This morning a gentlemanly-
dressed man, a foreigner, who gave the name of Joseph
Ruscovitch, was placed before the Lord Mayor, charged
with forging, and then uttering, a bill of exchange for
£460, with intent to defraud Mr. T. Gillespie.
Mr. Gillespie, of 2, Brabant-court, Philpot-lane, said
that in the early part of August, last year, the prisener
entered our office, and presented a bill of exchange drawn
by one of our correspondents at Constantinople, and psyable
at sight for £3OO. A cheque for the amount was given him,
and be quitted the place. In a few days afterwards, the
15th of August, he again called and presented another bill
of exchange, for the sum of £460, and believing the same to
be a genuine instrument, I drew a:cheque on Messrs. Bar-
clay and Co. for the amount. From information received
afterwards it turned out that the last bill was a forgery.
The bill, like the first one he presented, amongst other sig-
natures, bore that of Mr. C. t 3. Anson, of Constantinople, by
whom it was indorsed to the prisoner.
A gentleman from the firm of Anson, Brothers, of Great
Winchester-street, on looking:at the bills, said—The indorse-
ment on the bill for X,300 is a genuine signature, but that
for the £460 is a forgery.
Mr. Dutson, cashier to Messrs. Barclay and Co., bankers,
of Lombard-street, said—On the 15th of August, 1857, I
cashed a cheque of Messrs. Gillespie's for £460. I gave
four £5O Bank of England notes and £260 in gold.
Prisoner—l was not the party who presented the cheque.
The Lord Mayor—He does not say you were.
Witness—The party signed the cheque in the name of
" J. Ruscovitch."

Mr. Bailey, of the Bank of England, produced four £5O
notes which were exchanged for gold on the 15th of August,
1857. On the back of each note is the name of Ruscovitch,
Upper Charlotte-street, Fitzroy-square. They are the
same notes as described by the last witness.
Mr. Bakewell, merchant, of Great. Tower-street—l knew
the prisoner when he resided in Upper Charlotte-street,
Fitzroy-square. I have seen him write. I believe the en-
dorsement of the bill for £460 to be in his handwriting.
There are other names on the document that greatly re-
semble his writing.
Prisoner—Yes. I say it resembles my writing, but I
neither signed nor presented the bill for payment. Mr.
Gillespie is mistaken when he says I am the party. •
Another witness feints Edinburgh, acquainted with the
handwriting of the prisoner, said he was of opinion
the endorsement was written by him.
The Lord Mayor—l shall commit you for trial, but before
dcing .o I have to ask you what you have to say in answ--...
to the charge? whatever you do say will be taken down in
writing and may be used againit you.
Prisoner—l have nothing to say. I deny the charge and
re.erve my defence.
The prisoner, who was taken into custody at Constanti-
nople, was then fully committed.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.— EMBEZZLEMENT.--
John Franklin was charged with embezzling several sums
of money, received for and on account of his employers,
Messrs. Longman, seal engravers and jewellers, Waterloo-
place, Pall-Mall.

William Augustus Jones, manager to the prosecutors,
said the prisoner was in the employ of Messrs. John and
Richard Longman as errand lad, and it was his duty to
hand over all monies received to either Mr. Longman, bis
son, or himself (witness). On the sth of August, having
received from Mrs. Atkinson 15s, Lady Burgoyne £l, and
the Rev. William Kelk 10s. 6d., the prisoner came
home, and taking out another parcel never returned. On
being taken into custedy he admitted he had received the
amounts in question.
A constable said the prisoner admitted to him that be had
received the money. He further said he had nowhere to go,
and would rather go to prison than elsewhere.
Mr. Jones said he believed Messrs. Longman wished not
to press the case very strongly against the prisoner, as they
chiefly wished others in their employ to be warned, and he
thought there would be some difficulty in getting the parties
to attend. _ _ _

Mr. Beadon said he should remand the prisoner for a
week.

THE ORGAN NIIISANCE.—DISTURBING AN AUTHOR.
—Bar tholonzezo Pesasagola, an organ grinder, was
charged.with playing his organ at 10 o'clock on the previous
night, to the great annoyance of Mr. Charles Win. Day, a
gentleman residing at 82, New Bond-street.
Mr. Day said the defendant came outside his house on
the previous night, and began playing his organ. He went
out, and told him in Italian to go away, and the defendant
did move a few yards, and then began again. He then told
him that would not do, upon which he moved back to the
former place, and, putting down his organ, began. He
was obliged to follow the organ players, and give them into
custody, for they seemed to have au idea' that, as long as
they moved away, they had a right to begin again. They
were an intolerable nuisance to him, and he was unable to
follow his pursuits in consequence.
Mr. Beadon, having been informed that the man was not
well known in the district, cautioned him that, if he came
there again, and did not go away when told, he would fine
him heavily, and discharged him.

THAMES.—THE PILOTAGE LAWS.—EXTRAORDI-
NARY APPLICATION.—Oa Mr. Selfe taking his seat on
the bench, a constable from Woodbridge, Suffolk, ap-
peared before him with two warrants, signed by a magis-
trate of that county, for the apprehension of two Danis]]
captains for a violation of the pilotage laws.
EiMr.:Selfe looked over the warrants, and said as far as he
understood them the ships of the Danish captains were ex-
empted from pilotage, and did employ unqualified persons
to act as pilots. If the ships were exempted from pilotage,
bow could the Danish captains be prosecuted for not taking
licensed pilots on board ? He asked the applicant where
the Danish captains now were?
The Woodbridge constable replied that both were in the
port of London. He believed that one was in the East India
Dock and the other in the London Dock.

Mr. Selfe—And you have been sent up to London from
Suffolk to arrest the Danish captains and take them down
to Woodbridge?
Applicant—Yes, sir; those are my directions.
Mr. Selfed--Where are the pilots who exhibit the infor-
mation on which the warrant is granted ?
The constable—ln London, sir; the offence was com-
mitted at Orfordness.

Mr. Selfe said be found no fault with the constable, who
was acting according to his instructions, but he did think
this was a most harsh proceeding, and should decline to
" back" the warrants signed by a Suffolk magistrate with his
signature. He had some doubts about the legality of the
warrants; but setting that aside, he would not be a party
to so harsh a proceeding as this, and countenance the Danish
captains being taken out of their ships and transferred to
Suffolk for an alleged violation of the law, of which perhaps
they were quite ignorant.
Mr. Widdle, second usher of the court, said that Mr.
Yardley had refused to sign similar warrants for a violation
o fthe pilotage laws on the coast of Suffolk.
Mr. Selfe—l am very glad to bear that. If the Danish
captains are to be proceeded against, let them be proceeded
against here and by summons. All the parties are here,
and I will not sign the warrants and allow the captains to
be 'snapped up with the two warrants and taken into
Suffolk.

The warrants were then returned to the constable.
