ST. HELEN'S DEFALCATIONS. The examination
of tne defaulters, John arid William Johnson, was held
on Monday, in the Town-Era St. Helen's, before Mr.
R. Neilson, chairman; Mr. W. Pilkington, Mr. W. H.
Brancker, and Rev. I. R. Esans, magistrates. Mr. As-
pinali, barrister, of Liverpool, appeared on behalf of the
prosecution; and Mr. Taylor, solicitor, of St. Helen's,
defended Mr. John Johnson; Mr. Whitby appearing on
behalf of Mr. William Johnson. Three informations
had been laid a_ainst the prisoners; two charging them
with embezzlement, and one with conspiracy. Mr.
Aspinall only proceeded upon one charge, namely,
against Mr. John Johnson for receiving 2001. from a
friendly society, and not accounting fur it; and against
111 r. William Johnson fir being an accessory after
the fact. Sufficient evidence having been offered
the chairman said, that in the case of John John-
son the court had conic to the determination to
refer the question of bail on the charge of embezzle-
ment to a higher tribunal, to the judge of a superior
court; and at the same time, should that judge be dis-
posed to take bail for the embezzlement, the court would
immediately entertain any application for bail for the
conspiracy, it being committed on two counts. With

as
voluntary
the two prisoners—the one in the evt nt of the other not
being sufficient to cover the defalcations; and the bench
therefore felt that the bail mentioned would be sufficient
to mark the course of justice, and allay any feeling in
the public mind with regard to the loss of those who
were depo•itors at the bank. The proceedings were
th n at an end, and the court rose.
SUICIDE IN ST. JAMES'S PARK.—Yesterday after•
noon an inquost was held by Mr. Bedford, in the board-
room of the workhouse of St. Mat tin-in-the-Fields, on
vi:w of the body of Joseph Masters, aged seventy-one,
who hung himself in the ornamental enclosure of St.
James's-park. It appr ared from the evidence that the
der cited ; e,nied at Warwick, and had a small indepen-
dent property, which he obtained while in service as a
butler. Last Thursday he ILft Warwick about twelve
~'eleck for London, and on his arrival called on one of
his oldest acquaint ences. He was very depressed, and
stated that he had come t) London to arrange his affairs.
The following morning he went away. Before leaving
he observod he would be back early the same afternoon.
As a park-keeper named Dean was gassing through the
" half-moon" shrubbery in the ornamental enclosure of
St. James's-, ark, he saw deceased suspended by a rope
ir nal a lalurnum-tree. His knees nearly touched the
ground, the cord by which he was hanging, was cut and
the body was found to be warm. A watch with some
memoranda which led to his identification, was in his
possession. Verdict," Temporary insanity.
