THE DUKE OF EDINBURGH.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

Sir,----Immediately before the commencement of
Mendelssohn's " Hymn of, Praise" and Walpurgis
Night on Wednesday next (to-morrow) at Exeter
Hall, by the N;&tional Choral Society, the National
Anthem will be performed by the band and chorus
of 700 performers ; and I beg to ask those of
the public who intend to be present on this
occasion to show their loyalty, and to exhibit
their sympathy with the Queen on the occasion of
the diabolical attempt on the life of our Sailor
Pritne, by joining heart and hand in the last verse
of the National Anthem, copies of which, words and
music, will be presented to every person enterinv,
the hall. The National Anthem will be sung pre-
cisely at 8, and the doors of Exeter Hall will be
open at 7.30.

I am, sir, your obedient servant,
GEO. W3l. MARTIN.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.-TIHS DAL

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

CAPTURE OF A DEALER IN COUNTERFEIT COIN.
—William Thompson, described as a costermonger,
was charged, before Mr. Tyrwhitt, with having in
his possession a counterfeit sovereign, six counter-
feit crowns, and a counterfeit Ibrin, knowing the
eatne to be counterfeit, with intent to circulate the
same.

Mr. James Brannan, agent to the Mint, and em-
ployed to trace out offenders against the currency,
said—Yesterday afternoon, while in a shop in Dud-
ley-street, wish Sergeants Ackrill and Matthews
of the F division, and Police-constable Bran-
nan, G- division, Sergeant Ackriil called
my attention to the prisoner, who was
going along Dudley-street. We followed the
prisoner, and he was seized by two of the officers,
and, after considerable resistance, Ackrill took from
his hand a counterfeit crown piece wrapped in
paper. I told the prisoner my name was Brannan,
and that he was suspected of being in rossession of
counterfeit coin, and that I believed the crown piece
taken from him to be counterfeit. The prisoner then
said, "I know it is, but you will have to prove I in-
tended to circulate it." I told the prisoner that from
his remark he seemed to have a practical knowledge
of his calling, and he was then taken to B )w-street
police-station, and on his being searched there
Sergeant Ackrill found five other crown pieces,
which, as well as the one taken from the prisoner's
hand, were all counterfeit, and also a' counterfeit
sovereign and a counterfeit florin. The prisoner
refused his name and address, but knowing where
he resided I went with Sergeant Ackrill to 160,
Albany-street, Regent-park, and in a room, at
the top of
the house in which the prisoner
lived, amongst some boas, a counterfeit shilling .
was found by Sergeant Ackrill, and also some
articles of theatrical costume, which belong to the
prisoner's master, Mr. Nathan, costumier, of
Tichbourne-street, and which will hereafter form
the subject of another charge, they having been
taken from Mr. Nathan's premises. The coins, I
wish to state, found on the prisoner, had undergone
an operation called " slumming," that is, they have
been rubbed over with a composition made of lamp
black and grease, and which has the effect of mak-
ing the coins appear as if they had been Some time
in circulation.

articles of theatrical costume found at the prisoner's
lodging, and Sergeant Ackrill, 15 F, after giving

I hope the Mint authorities will go on with the
case.
