in money. After Anderson had got the money he came
out of the house, and we all three, with the fourth
man, met in the same street, awl we walked to the
Eastern Counties Railway, where Anderson was to meet
another young man to send off with the other
check. I and Anderson went into an eating-
house opposite the station, Seward and the
other man waiting close by. Anderson met
the young man near the platform of the railway and
took him with us to the eating house. He was sent
with the other check to Messrs. Barclay. I followed
him and saw it paid, partly in 101. notes, and the rest in
money. It was part of my duty in these transactions to
see the parties back with the money, and I did 89 in
this instance. The young man who got the money in
this instance was going over London-bridge instead of
returning to the railway station. I went to him,
touched him on the shoulder, and asked him if he was
not going the wrong way. (Laughter.) He replied he
was going to his late employers to see if Anderson had
sent for his character. At this time Anderson passed by
a name which I can't recollect. He changed his name
each time he sent a check. I said to the young man a
gentleman is waiting for yen at the railway. He has a
particular way of trying his servants before he employs
them. (Laughter.) I then returned with the young
man towards the railway station, and on our way we
met Anderson, who went alone with the young man
into a public-house. When he came out he and I met
Seward, and he gave to him the money he had received
from the young man. We all went to the neighbour-
hood of Hackney road, when Seward said he would
take the notes and sell them to a man named Hall.
Seward left, and Anderson and I, with two other men,
waited at a public-house in a street in the Hackney-road.
I should know the house again. Seward subsequently
returned and brought back gold, which was divided
amongst the five. Seward, on that occasion, said he
knew Hall well, but be did not say who he was. I
don't' know Peter-street, in Hackney-road, by name.
After this Seward said that if ever I heard of anything or
knew anything I was to communicate with Saunders,
and that if he had anything he would communicate with
me through Saunders. I never knew where Saward lived.
My address was in Cottage-lane, City-road, and I lived
there in the name of Hawes, with a young woman who
passed as my wife. I was occasionally visited there by
my aunt, Elizabeth Haydon, who lived near King's-
cross. Whilst I lived there Seward visited me three
times. Seward on these occasions said he had some
business more to do, as on the former occasion, if I
would like to join him. I did so, and apartments were
taken and a check was presented on Messrs Smiths,
Payne, and Smiths. When Saward visited me he

Mr. Joyce said a more unfair proposition never was
made, as no such order was made when Mr. Sleigh
opened his case.
Sir R. W. Carden said if such an application had been
made to him on either side he should have felt himself
bound to accede to it at the beginning of this inquiry,
and it was therefore his duty to do so now.
Mr. Joyce said be would not oppose the application,
because his own case would stand upon its own merits, ,
but in Mr. Sleigh's case he knew it was necessary to
have the witnesses in court.
Mr. Sleigh thought such observations should not be
made, because, had Mr. Joyce applied in the first in-
stance, the witnesses would not have been allowed to be
present.
The witnesses having been ordered out,
Mr. Joyce said he felt this inquiry had been protract-
ed, and a cloud of witnesses had been called in support
of the case against Mr. Barber, but which he would show
was one of the most flimsy character ; and feeling, from
the manner in which this prosecution had been con-
ducted, it was a malicious proceeding on the part of this
self-styled public prosecutor, who would ultimately be
made to pay for the gratuitous, mischievous, and tin
merited attack upon his private character. With regard
to the history of this case, he might mention that Mr.
Potter, without saying a word to any one, went to the
police-court, and, unasked—he was going to say almost
encouraged—made a statement, and afterwards made
use of the criminal law as an engine to crush and defeat
Mr. Barber in the vindication of a just right. When he
sought to relieve himself from the stigma of such a charge,
th
e course pursued by Mr. Potter had been adopted by
him for the purpose of closing his mouth in another
court and before another tribunal. With reference to the
evidence, it did not show that the persons alleged to have
been defrauded had complained or had any desire to
prosecute, and that fact alone ought to arouse the
magistrates' suspicions. It had been said that Mr.
Potter was a public benefactor, for taking these pro-
ceedings, when, in fact, it was not until an action for
defamation was brought against him for a slanderous
statement made by him in the justice room, and from
that moment Mr. Potter had the strongest personal
interest in the course he had taken in this matter, but
Mr. Potter was labouring under a mistake if he thought
a committal by the magistrate would deprive Mr.
Barber of all redress by civil action. With regard to the
testimony of the prosecutors, he would convict them out
of their own mouths, and he was surprised that any one iu
a wealthy place like the City of London should have en-
tertained such a charge, when it was proved that the
poor had' been amply provided for by this institution,
until Mr. Potter's exposition, to an extent beyond any
other institution of the kind. It had been shown that
1,300 persons had been fed on the Christmas-day, and
he should prove that 1,800 were fed on that day. In
spite of Mr. Potter's vindictive proceedings, be should
show that this was a substantial institution, and if any
one were liable to a prosecution it would be the com-
mittee, who were ready to meet any charge which ma-
lignity might think proper to prefer: This institution
was founded under the name of the " City Hospice,"
under the auspices of Sir F. Kelly, the then Lord
Mayor, and other influential gentlemen in the City.
Mr. Cochrane was most indefatigable in the management
of it until his death, when the instivution changed its
name, and underwent certain other alterations. Mr.
Barber was re-appointed under the new system as ma-
nager, and his wife matron, with 1001. a year, rations,
and apartments, which were not unreasonably high
terms. That was the arrangement, and all donors of
a certain sum, by virtue of such gifts, became vice-
presidents. The servants of the establishment received
board, lodging, and wages ; and therefore the beer they
received was only in accordance with their engagements.
No one could suppose that anything in the shape of
donations should be sent for any specific object, when
it was obvious that donations, whether in money or
goods, were forwarded for the general purposes of the
institution. When it was shown, as it would be, that
Mr. Barber had the welfare of this institution so much
at heart that he had relinquished his claim for salary
for the last two years, in order that the destitu•
tion and want of his fellow-creatures might in some
degree be alleviated—(applause)—it was preposterous
for the prosecution to assert that this institution was not
1 a public one, when in fact it was notoriously so, and it
was shown to be so upon the very face of the circulars of
this society. As for the tale of the suet and flour, it
was only reasonable to suppose the servant thought it
was bad, and therefore sent it away, and although Mrs.
West, the pie-shop proprietor, said it was sweet, it
should be remembered that she sold the pies. With
regard to the law of the case, the charge being for ob-
taining goods under false pretences, it should be shown
that the false pretence referred to an alleged existing
fact, whereas in this case the goods were obtained upon
a promise to do something in the future, which was not
a false pretence.
1 Sir R. W. Carden recommended Mr. Joyce to confine
himself to the facts.
Mr. Joyce said he wished to draw the magistrates'
attention to the law, and afterwards he would come to
the facts, for it was upon both that the magistrates
would have to decide.
Mr. Sleigh said he had proved that these goods were
obtained under certain and divers false pretences.
Mr. Joyce said he was not asking the magistrate to
come to an immediate decision ; but he felt it his duty
to neglect no point that would be favourable to his client.
Mr. Martin said the part relied upon in these charges
was, that the defendant was making colleztions of money
and food for the purpose of giving the poor a good dinner
on Christmas-day.
Mr. Joyce said then he would prove that that part of
the case was equally rotten with the rest, as that inten-
tion on the part of the committee had not been proved to
be untrue. But, as he said before, he did not rely upon
any technical objection, as he would prove beyond a
doubt that the beer was given to the poor, and that n ,
part of it was consumed in Mr. Barber's family. He
next came to the evidence for the prosecution. Cooke,
the first witness, was dismissed for misconduct; and be
wrote to his late master (Mr. Barber) threatening
him, if be did not take him again into his employ ;
and after that, of what value was that man's testi-
mony ? In that letter, which had not been read before,
C, oke complained of the injury done to him by discharg-
ing him from a situation which be anticipated holding
throughout the season. The next witness, the man
Bright, left with the coat of the institution upon his back,
and having money in his pocket, applied for relief to the
union, for which be was sent to prison for seven days.
Tubs man had avowed himself to be a chest and a liar,
and his only excuse was he was drunk, and knew nothing
about it ; but how much was the evidence of each a man
worth ? The very fact of his being drunk is corrobrative
of the evidence for the defence, as it was for drunkenness
that he was discharged. The boy Flude denied having
received any money for suet ; but that was the only
doubt thrown upon his veracity, for it would be proved
he did have some of it. That, however, being twelve
months ago, may have slipped his memory ; but his
evidence actually assisted the defence, for he swore that
Mr-. Bar• er said the suet was bad, and such would b'
shown to be the fact. As for the biscuits, it was not
I pretended that any were given away ; but they would
be accounted for. Neither was it pretended that beer
was given away after 4 o'clock, because Mr. Berber
found the servants getting intoxicated, and stopped the
supply at that hour, so that the women who swore they
had no beer, came after that time, and they did nut
therefore affect the case at all. He would not question
1 the veracity of the police, because they might have been
mistaken when their arduous duties and the lapse of
time were taken into consideration ' • but if the persons
he should call, who actually partook of the beer, denied
Ithat feet' he could only say that they would have corn-
' mittefi gross and deliberate perjury. He next came to
the two girls, with whom it had been alleged Mr. Barber
had been tampering, and, if such was the fact, then Mr.
! Barber would be subjett to all the penalties of his act;
l but as these rls had told Mr. Horseley they partook of
! the beer, her egretted any offer of reward had been
made to those witnesses froda th , bench for the evidence
1 they had given, when a more abominable attempt to
! calumniate and injure any one was never perpetrated.
I Sir R. W. Carden said Mr. Joyce misunderstood him.
He had no intention of giving the girls half-a-crown, but
merely to tell them that, if their statements were true,
! they would not be the losers of the amount which they
said Mr. Barber had off. red to them.
Mr. Joyce said he was very glad to hear that he had
I been mistaken. With regard to those witnesses, he
should prove that on those girls leaving
• the court they
Raid they bad been better paid by
Potter than Mr.
Mr.
‘ Berber, and one said that her her chap had told her
1 what to say, and that they expected money for the evi-
dence they gave, and they further remarked that if they
got two shillings each they would takeone room between
them, for what purpose must be obvious to al in court.
This conversation would be proved by three or four
witnesses, and, further, it would be shown that the girl
Hayes, instead of being three years in the service of
Mrs. Stacey, who had gone to Australia, no such person
lived at the address given at the time, but the girl's
sister did live in the identical house described as Mrs.
Stacey's residence. Mr. Barber's witnesses necessarily
must come from among the class from which the two
girls had been brought, and Mr. Horseley very wisely

In the examination of Dalhousie's policy with regard
to native rulers and territorial acquisitions, the arguments
of the reviewer leaf irresistibly to the conclusion that,
no more in external relations than in financial measures,
have the interests of India been advanced under his lord-
ship. The conquest of the Purijaub, which he merely
completed, is shown to be the only one from which any
benefit is likely to accrue, and that only in a military
point of view, there being a deficiency of 59,000/. on
account of that province, althou,.i the marquis claims an
addition therefrom of 1,500,000/. to the revenue. Pegu
is not ceded to us fey treaty, and our future possession
must depend upon the ability or otherwise of the Bur-
man monarchs to recover it. In the meantime the re-
venue derived from it only amounts to half the expenses
exclusive of military and marine charges connected with
our occupation, rendering it a positive loss to the Com-
pany, although Lord Dalhousie's Minute represents a
gain of 220,0001.. which is nearly three times the amount
actually collected. The other annexations made under
his ru e add nothing to the glory or stability of our In-
dian empire, because the rulers of the territories thus
added to our already overgrown possessions in Asia hal
long been mere ciphers, dependent on the company's for-
bearance. On the other hand, while the revenues ob-
tained from them are, far the most part, absorbed in
the charges incidental to a military occupation, their
annexation has spread discontent and distrust through-
out India, in consequence of the violation of treaties and
disregard of the estabiisbed laws of succession involved
in them. Of the rationality of these laws, Lord Dal-
house, it is contended, was not to be the judge ; suffi-
cient that they existed from time immemorial through-
out India, and that repeated a-surances had been given
the Hindoos that their ordinances and customs should be
respected. The writer concludes his anatomy of Dal-
housie's eight years' rule by referring to the crowd of
illustrious natives now in London as petitioners agaitst
his injustice and rapacity, and pointing to the fate of the
conquest-founded empires of the past as an indication of
what may take place in India should the same policy be
continued, the English element being to the native but
as one to five thousand, and the latter yearly progressing
n intelligence and social influence.---Liverpsei Albion.

A SONG FROM THE Dour. —Caroline M‘Carthy, a
ticket-of leave woman, and George Ha), man, a marine,
Were indicted for Atealing a silver watch and guard, the
property of Edward Giles. It appeared that on the 20th
of Dec. last the prosecutor met the prisoner in Granby-
street, Pymonth. Site caught him tightly round the
waist and took the watch frora his pocket. It was after-
wards discovered that the prisoner Hayman sold the
watch for al. The jury having returned a verdict of
guilty the recortler in sentencing the prisoners observed
that M'Carthy had been transpi;rted for a similar offence ;
for seven years, and hail obtained a ticket-of-leave, but
it appeared to produce no efiectupon her, and he should
therefore sentence her to 14 years' transportation. In '
reference to Hayman, he should commit him to prison
for 1 months, hoping he would have tine to reflect oak
bir; position, and on his release be would then make a
good member of society. The prisoner M'Carthy, who
was a daring looking woman and of robust form, ex-
tended her arms and said, addressing the recorder, "I
am very much obliged to you for the sentence you have
passed
upon me. I have now a chance of going abroad,
and I shall have an opportunity of doing better than if
I had stopped at home. Fortune smiles on the bad, and
out

the country. Many
I am happy I am going
hundreds I have robbed, and r I should return many
hundreds I -hall rob again." She then left the dock
singing very loudly.
