FRANCE AND MOROCCO.

News from Marshal Bugeaud of the 14th has been
received. The Marshal, wishing to prevent the re-
union and augmentation of the Morocco army, which
every day received additional reinforcements, marched
forwards from his camp.
The Moroquins stood upon the defensive, with a
mass of cavalry of about 20,000 men. It appears that
the Marshal has gained a complete victory, but parti-
culars are not yet known.

CRIMINAL COURT.—(THIS DAY.)
OLD COURT.
(Before Mr. Baron GURNEY and Mr. Justice WIGHTMAN.)
FORGERY.—Sackville Sachille, alias Charles Davis,
pleaded guilty to an indictment charging him with
feloniously uttering and putting off a forged bill of ex-
change for 2501., with intent to defraud Simon Rendill,
and was sentenced to twenty years' transportation.
FORGERY OF DUTCH BlLLS.—Pietro Valler,
Henry jeweller;
Francisco Enrico, a fencing-master ; and H Har-
rison, a draper, were indicted with feloniously making
certain orders for the payment of money, purporting to
be orders of the Directors of the Administration-office of
Funds in the kingdom of the Netherlands.

Mr. Bodkin addressed the jury for the prosecution,
and Mr. Ballantyne, Mr. Charnock, and Mr. Clarkson,
appeared for the prisoners.
It will be in the recollection of our readers that the
prisoners, through the prisoner Harrison, applied to an
artist of the name of Louis Gluck Rosenthall, residing
on Wellington-terrace, to engrave a copy of the coupons
of the Netherlands' Bank. Mr. Rosenthal! thought there
was something suspicious in the transaction, and he at
once gave notice to the police, and also went to the
Consul-General of the Netherlands, under whose direc-
tion Mr. Rosenthal! completed the plate for the foreerY-
It ryao raoa.wly prorca Llie tt was an attempt to defraud
the Dutch Government, and the prisoners were then
taken into custody. Several witnesses were examined,
who clearly proved the case against the prisoners.
Mr. Clarkson addressed the jury for Enrico, Mr. Char-
nock for Valler, and Mr. Ballantyne for Harrison.
Mr. Baron GURNEY summed up.
The jury found all the prisoners Guilty, and Mr.
Baron GURNEY sentenced them all to ten years' trans.

NEW COURT.
(Before the COMMON SERGEANT.)
EMEEZZLEMENT.—Frederick Gardner was placed at
the bar charged with embezzling a sum of 14s. on the 9th
of August, and a further sun of 41. 11s., received on the
10th, the property of Edin 6 Alexander.
It appeared from the evidence that the prisoner re-
ceived the money, but it was the habit of the prosecutor
to allow the prisoner a book in which the money re-
ceived was to be put down. It appeared that the pri-
soner had given credit in the book for having received
the money, but stated that be had lost it out of his
pocket.—The prisoner was acquitted.
William Bagshaw was charged

West-
minster.
It appeared from the evidence that the prisoner was
found with the two geese dead, concealed under a cloak,
by the policeman on duty. He represented that he was
going to make a present of them, and did not wish to let
his wife know of it. The prisoner had been convicted
before of robbing 501., and was but a short time since
liberated from an imprisonment of nine months.
The police-constable stated that the prisoner kept very
bad company, and that he intended to give the geese to a
woman of bad character.
The prisoner was sentenced to seven years' transpor-
tation.

GUILDHALL.—(THIS DAY.)
A respectable married female, named Elizabeth Gads-
ley, was placed before Alderman Challis, charged with
an attempt upon her own life.
The constable took her into custody in Finsbury-pave-
ment, and on searching her at the station-house, a quan-
tity of oxalic acid was discovered on her person. She
was locked up in a cell, and endeavoured to effect stran-
gulation with her garters. The attempt was discovered
in time to prevent a fatal consummation.

The husband of the prisoner said that they had been
married twenty-five years, and had lived happily to-
gether, but unfortunately they had had a few words on
the preceding evening, and the quarrel had so affected
her, that she had meditated the act of self-destruction.
If the Magistrate would let her go, he would promise
that she never should so commit herself again.
The prisoner gave a like promise, and said that she
now greatly repeated of her purpose, and begged the
Magistrate's and her husband's forgiveness.
She was discharged.

BOW-STREET.-(THIS DAY.)
The Hon. Mr. 7ouchet was brought up this morning,
for final examination, charged with firing a pistol at
Mr. Smith, the gun-maker, in Holborn.
Mr. Clarkson appeared for the prisoner.
Mr. Smith was able to attend this morning ; and
having been accommodated with a seat at the table, his
evidence was taken. The facts of the case have already
appeared on several occasions.
Mr. Smith was bound over in the sum of 100/.
to prosecute.
The surgeon at the hospital was examined, and he
stated, that the ball came away from the wound in Mr.
Smith's back, on the 6th of the present month, having
remained in the wound exactly a month. Mr. Smith
was now out of danger.
The several witnesses were then bound over to pro-
secute, and the prisoner was committed.
