ACCIDENTAL DISCOVERIES OF FRAUD.

There are some very curious circumstances connected
with the diecovety of the frauds practised upon the
London and Westcninater Bank by a late ledger clerk.
It must be understood, fora clear comprehension of the
matter, that this person, by means of having his own
cheques pooeing tierough his hands, was enabled to daily
balance, by fudging" his books to any sum that was
notate easy, in order to make figures appear corset.
Upon hie leaving town for his holiday he doubtless felt
secure in the successful secrecy of his plots, as the clerk
who would take his place would have but his own day's
work at the ledger to transact. In ninety-nine times at
l: act out of a hundred this reasoning would have held
goOd, and would have done so in this instance, except
that instead of a clerk accustomed to the work being em-
ployed to perforoi the duty of the absentee, one wholly
unaccustomed to was selected ; and strange is it may
seem, the discovery of an extensive series of frauds Was
entirely owing to the ignorance of the deputy. So un-
accuAumed wee he to the duty that lie bad several titpes
to iequire of some one else how things were to be done ;
and en one critical occasion, iu reply to a question, he
was told ho must" cast" his lodger to find out his mis-
take. Now, so ignorant of the real business on hind
was he, that he did not irnow even what this term meent,
and instead .of " casting" the one dav'ts entries, he com-
.menced at the beginning of the ledger, and quiclely
found.that the " casting" die knot agree with.the totals.
This immediately led to au investigation of the books,
and the frauds perpetrated •were at once revealed.
N•iw it is not a little singular that bad a regular
"ledger clerk" been employed, be would probably have
said to himself, " Oh ! bother the thing; let Mr.
fi.,d out the error himself." The suspicion of there
‘yveetterts end. baokhoanka
being an,}tLing wrong wouldtroleh:Y never have
entered Lis head, and the absentee would have re•
turned to town to make things "Yluiuth• A sorneWhat
similar instance to this
the application of a gfn t occurredlem ato
for a situation. Now, before the Partner to whom he
applied was a row of old ledgers, one of which he eel the
some
a
spur cf the moment took. with the observation, "Here,
‘
cast this." No sooner said than done, with the observa-
tion, a minute or two, "This casting is, wrong--'-and
ties—and this. Oh, nonsense," was the reply, with
an incredulous smile. On investigation, however; the
truth became apparent that a systematic course of plun-
der had some 20 years before been practised, which might
never probably have been discovered but for this dance-
.l ke kind of ir.CidentemiCkvnide.

RUSSIA.

A letter from St. Petersburg says :—" A project
is now before the Government for reducing the
monetary unity at present employed to the same
amount as that in use in Feance, and for making
other natmetarY reforms. The Councilof the Empire
has authorised the Minister of Finance to coin and
issue 3,000,000 roubles of copper money. M.
Brock, ex-Minister of Finance, has gone abroad,
and is to stop for a year. The Customs and Sani-
tary Police having been organised at St. Nicholas,
in the Caucasus ' • that port is opened for com-
merce, as are those of Anapa, Soukhourai Re-
dout, and POti ; foreign vessels are to be admitted
on the 27th July. The first iron transport built at
Astrakan has just been launched ; it is called the
Calmouk. Gold has just been discovered in seve-
ral places in the neighbourhood of Lake Baikal, in
Siberia, and it is not doubted that abundance of
coal exists in the country."

C • Bond-street, Jeweller and Silversmith to the Principal
Sovereigns and Courts of Europe, begs leave to remove an erroneous
impression which exists amongst some of his customers, that he has
retired, or is about to retire, from business. This impression (which
is entirely unfounded) has probably arisen in cnsequence of the re-
tirement and selling off of a jeweller of the same name, also of New
Bond-street, but with whom C. F. Hancock is not, and never has
been, in any way connected, either in business or by relationship.

LEE V. BRETT..-.ROBERTS V. BRETT.--LAYINGCit DOWN
A SUBMARINE TELEGRAPH.
These two actions arose out of the same transac-
tion,
Q.C., Mr. Lush, Q.-0., and Mr.
Beasley appeared for the
wiiili
jr.aatimßdeost:hielQyi,.ow.e,reischth.eruefnarvrekis,
and Mr. Lloyd
plaintiffs ; and Mr. Ed-
eouftlettnhean connected with the
for the defendant.
Iu opening the case, the plaintiff's counsel stated
St. Leonard's Iron
that Captain
was
Royal 'Marine Artillery,. and it was to his exertions
Poplar,ain
that the country was mainly indebted for the equip-
ment of the gun and mortar boats that were sent
during the Russian war into the Baltic and the Black
Sea. He had for some years held an important
position as surveying officer to the Admiralty,
and his name was well known in his profession.
In the year 1855 he became aware that the Medi-
terranean Electric Telegraph Company were desi-
rous of laying down a cable between Sardinia and
the Coast of Africa, and be, in consequence, was
brought into communication with Mr. Dellamore,
the secretary to the company, and to Mr. Brett,
the gerant of the company. Capt. Roberts was con-
vinced that be could lay down this cable. This was
in April, 1855, and at that time there was an old
frigate called the Cornwall lying at Portsmouth,
which , the Government was willing to - sell, and
which it was thought would be fit for carrying out
the cable. Some communication took place with
the Admiralty, but it was found that the Govern-
ment wanted too much money for her, and the ne-
gotiation went off. Capt. Roberta then ascertained
that there was a tcall-built East Indiaman, also
caned the Cornwall, which was at Portsmouth, and
was for sale. She was of the strongest possible con-
struction, and was short built, and so suited for

FORESEORE OF TII,B B.Kr-4-Nlr TIDAL
RIVERS.

Since the , r:,:ported by us List year, sue-
tined by the Crown at the hands of the lords of
manors and other lai.ded proprietors, commencing
with that inflicted by his Royal Highness the Prince
of Wales as Duke of Cornwall, and their retreat
befor,) his Grace of Northurxiberiand, we have now
the gratification to inform our readers that in two
cases which haVo siocc come before his Honour S;r
W. P. Wood, the Crown has .again hee'n d. fe it, d. In
one case, in re ilstow, as to the manors of Leigh and
Prittle wall, in Essex, on the banks of the Thames,
his Honour refusing an iss'ae at law to try the light
of the lord of the manor, ; and in another more
recent ease, that of the St andishes and the Carl'sle
and Sillo;11 Railway and Dock Company, last Sa-
turday, having granted art issue, the Crown retired
from the contest, and allowed the purchase-money
which had been invested to go to the
account of the lord of the mancr. It is be-
lieved that they were in a great measure com-
pelled to adopt this course in consequence of
another defeat which they had (a few weeks
since) sustained at the hands of Sir John Hamner,
Bart., before his Honour Vice-Chancellor Stuart
and Baron Martin, Sir John distinc'ly proving his
title to the land covered by water to the middle of
the River Dee.

It is to be hoped that as her Majesty's Govern-
ment have laid beforti both houses an account of
the proceedings of Cue Woods and Forests ou in-
formatioas, they will at once also present to Parlia-
ment the:papers both in the Prince of Wales's,
Lord Vivian's, and :Sir John Hanmer's cases, in
order that, at all hazauls, justice may be
done ; and those whore estates ate imperilled by
the encroachments of the sea may be also declared
entitled to all its profits, as laid down iu the com-
mon law of England.

Mr. Pycroft, the antiquary, may justly be con-
gratulated on the triumph of those principles which
he has so long advocated. The attention of the
landed proprietors in our marititne counties should
be directed to this subject, which affects the title
to not less than 1,000,000 acres of land in Cheat
Britain and Ireland.

NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.

The Lords of the Admiralty have forwarded
directions to the Superintendent of ChatbaM Dock-
yard Er an additional number of apprent4oei to be
entered at that establishment.

The Fairy Roy-al yacht, Capt. the Hon. Joseph
Denman, embarked the younger members of the
Royal family at the Clarence-yard, Gofport,.lajit
evening, about 6 o'clock, on their arrival from Ltin-
don, wi;h their attendants, and left With thorn for
Osbprne, where they will be joined by their illus-
trious parents to-morrow (Wednesday). Capt. the
Hon. G. F. Hastings, C. 8., Mr. Nodflall, R.N.,
Master Attendant, Mr. Jamieson, R.N., Store-
keeper, and other officers were in attendance.
The 2d battalion of the 12th Foot, under the
command of Col. Hamilton, will move from Park-
hurst, Isle of Wight, to Portsmouth this day, on
the way to Chester.
The Royal yacht has hauled alongside the shears
jetty at the Portsmouth Dockyard to get out her
damaged piston, and to repair defects to other nor-

Lions of her machinery. -
MThe Curac-a, 31, screw, Capt. T. H. Mason, will
be ready for sea on Thursday next, the Bth inst. It
is with the utmost pleasure we are enabled to state
that on leave having been given to 230 of ber crew
on Saturday last, the whole of the men returned to
their duty yesterday morning before 12 o'clock,
without a single case of inebriety.
The Penelope, 16, paddle, Captain Sir W. Si
Wiseman, has returned all running gear to the
dockyard at Portsmouth and to-day will hqul under
the shears to get out her lower masts. She pays
off on Thursday next alongside the jetty. Her en-
gines are perfect—the hull is rotten.
The Excellent, gunnery ship, Captain Hewlett,
C.B.—Mr. Terry's br •.111 loading riflejwas again
officially put to theproof, yesterday, by the marines
and blue jackets, and, at 300 yards' range, put seve-
ral shots into an upright post, the carbine not hav-
ing been cleaned after 1,000 rounds had been dis-
charged.
The Oberon, Lieut. Commander Paget, and
Archer, Captain Sanderson, at Woolwich, are now
under the hands of the painters, &c., who are or-
dered to work overtime. The crews are nearly
complete, and orders from the Admiraltylare daily
expected.
By letters received from her Majesty's ship Cum-
berland, 70, Vice-Admiral Wallis, we find that
unforeseen circumstances havo detained her at,
Rio, and that she did not sail in May as was in-
tended, but she was expected to lave about the
10th of June. By the death of Mr. Niblett, the
paymaster of the Cumberland, Admiral Wallis has
promoted Assistant-Paymaster F. E. Eversfield
(brother of the late paymaster of the Madagascar),
of the Spey, and appointed him to the 16-gun sloop
Siren, vice Miall, removed to the Cumberland.
The British Minister Plenipotentiary at the Brazils,
the Hon. Mr. Scaxlett, brother of the Lieutenant-
Governor of Portsmouth, takes passage home with
A imizal Wallis in the Cumberland.

THE ARMY.

. _
A ng'inetital order was yesteray evening issued
in the Artillery Garrison, Woolwich, by direction
of Gent'. 1 Sir W. F. Williams, commandant, for
the assembling of the troops of the RLyal Horse
Artillery and the field batteries on Woolwich,
cornmon, to be reviewed to-day, and to form a line
at 230 p.m. The troops will Le supplied with
blank ammunition. General Williams has signi-
fied his intention to Le present.
The entire lattalion of ltlyal Alarines at Wool-
widh were yesterday drawn out on Woolwich-c,m-
wan, in command of Lietr.-Colonel Fleming, and
were put through a variety of infantry movements.
The battalion is considerably reduced in numbers
through sickness, leave of absence, and other
causes, and at the present moment scarcely exceeds
GOO men.

The freight-ship Balaklava yesterday shipped
a cargo of military clothing for her Majesty's
troops in Cape Town.
The galvanic battery usually employed at the
proof butt in Woolwich Arsenal having been read-
justed and repaired, is again rendered available for
the purpose of proving guns. A large number of
8 and 10 inch and 68 pounders received from the
Lowniolr and other contractors are ordered to be
fired at the rate of 15 per day. The first batch of
15 were fired yesterday, and stood the test well.
Mr. Eastman's American breech-loading
six in number, and which were purchased by Go-
vet nment upwards of 12 months ago, are still lying
on the Arsenal-whaif tint cy&ched. Mr. Mallet's
mammoth mortar, although purchased at an enor-
mous cost, are, it appears, also considered to be
equally valueless, as the second and smaller one
remains in the spot on the Arsenal wharf where it
was first landed, and the first, repeatedly damaged
and repaired, will not, it is said, be subjected to
any further evidence of the inefficiency of the
invention.

FRANCE.
PARIS, MONDAY.
A fete took place on Sunday evening at the Cha-
teau of Meudon. The Empress bad accepted the
invitation of Prince Jerome to dine at the palace,
and numerous invitations were issued for the even-
ing. A brilliant display of fireworks took place on
the terrace, which were visible at a great distance;
A Paris letter dated Saturday, in the Nord,
says :

" I believe that I can affirm that, in the seventh confer-
ence held this day, Lord Cowley was to have presented a
counter-project to that of France, relative to the reorgani-
sation of the Principalities. That document has teen
drawn up with a view of conciliation, and in order to
prevent any painful rupture, France having resolved on
withdrawing in the event of the policy of Austria coutinu-
inr to dominate in the deliberations. The counter-project
of England entirely sets aside the political union of the
two provinces ; but it accords serious guarantees of .libeie,y,
and establishes on more independent and national bases the
central committee which is to unite the two Mold.o-Walla-
chian Divans, which committee is to be composed of mem-
bers elected by the two Danubian Assemblies. Ido not
enter into longer details, but it will be seen that the pro-
ject of Lord Cowley approaches the ideas of the French
Government. Surprise therefore need not be felt if the
irritation which, for some days, prevailed amongst the
plenipotentiaries has begun to calm down. Baron de Hub-
ner and Fund Pacha had on Friday a private conference of
more then three hours' duration. The counter-project
had been communicated to them, and they examined it in
every respect. Austria has reflected on the consequences
of the policy a outrancc which she has followed for some
time, and before the meeting of the plenipotentiaries, the
rumour was generally credited that, in the conference,
Baron de Hubner would be much less difficult to treat
with."

NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.

The Lords of the Admiralty have forwarded
directions to the Superintendent of Chatham Dock-
yard for an additional numbsr of apprentices to be
entered at that establishment.

The Fairy Royal yacht, Capt. the Hon. Joseph
Denman, embarked the younger members of the
Royal family at the Clarence-yard, Gosport, last
evening, about 6 o'clock, on their arrival from Lon-
don, with their attendants, and left with them for
Osborne, where they will be joined by their illus-
trious parents to-morrow (Wednesday). Capt. the
Hon. G. F. Hastings, C. 8., Mr. Noddall,
Master Attendant, Mr. Jamieson, RN., Store-
keeper, and other officers, were in attendance.
The 2d battalion of the 12th Foot, under the
command of Col. Hamilton, will move from Park-
burst, Isle of Wight, to Portsmouth this day, on
the way to Chester.
The Royal yacht has hauled alongside the shears
jetty at the Portsmouth Dockyard to get out her
damaged piston, and to repair defects to other por-
t ons of her machinery.
The Curagoa, 31, screw, Capt. T. H. Mason, will
be ret, 1y for sea on Thursday next, the Bth inst. It
is he utmost pleasure we are enabled to state
that on leave having been given to 230 of her crew
on Saturday last, the whole of the men returned to
their duty yesterday morning before 12 o'clock,
without a single case of inebriety.
The Penelope, 16, paddle, Captain Sir W. S.
Wiseman, has returned all running gear to the
dockyard at Portsmouth and to-day will haul under
the shears to get out her lower masts. She pays
off on Thursday next alongside the jetty. Her en-
gines are perfect—the hull is rotten.
The Excellent, gunnery ship, Captain Hewlett,
C.B.—Mr. Terry's brae th loading rifle.awas
officially put to theproof, yesterday, by the marines
and blue jackets, and, at 300 yards' range, put seve-
ral shots into an upright post, the carbine not hav-
ing been cleaned afTr 1,000 rounds had been dis-
charged._

TiTo Oberon, Lieut. Commander Paget, and
Archer, Captain Sanderson, at Woolwich, are now
under the hands of the painters, &c., who are or-
dated to work overtime. The crews are nearly
complete, and orders from the Aclmiraltylare drily
expected.

By letters received from her Majesty's ship Cum-
berland, 70, Vice-Admiral Wallis, we find that
unforeseen circumstances have detained her at
Rio, and that she did not sail in May as was in-
tended, but she was expected to leave about the
10th of June. By the death of Mr. Niblett, the
paymaster of the Cumberland, Admiral Wallis has
promoted Assistant-Paymaster F. E. Eversfizld
(brother of the late paymaster of the Madagascar),
of the Spey, and appointed him to the 16-gun sloop
Siren, vice Miall, removed to the Cumberland.
The British Minister Plenipotentiary at the Brazils,
the Hon. Mr. Searlett, Lrother of the Lieutenant=
Governor of Portsmou►h, takes passage home with
Admiral Wallis in the Cumberland.

turned out a foolish failure. No single Thal- "
lusson will stalk over the land, overshadowing onr
dukes and trudging our barons by the magnitude
of his territorial possessions. No thirty-two mil-
lions of money are expanded into broad acres,
where men may travel and say—" Behold the con-
quests of the great Peter Thellusson." Whether
Lord Rendlesham and Charles Sabine Augustus
Thellusson divide the estate as the eldest in lineage,
in
or whether Thomas and Arthur take as eldest
years, we should equ4lly desire to be able to call up
old Peter Thellusson to see the division of his anti-
cipated accumulations. The Court of Chancery
has so clipped and pollarded his oak, that it is net
much larger than when he left it. It would be fit
punishment for that purse-proud, vain, cruel old
man, to see that he disinherited his own children
only to fatten a generation of lawyers ; that he was
the dupe of his own subtlety, and that his name,
instead of being associated with the foundation of
a house of fabulous wealth, is only known in con-
nexion with an abortive scheme of vulgar vanity.
