last February a cheque for 1,4001. on Glyn's was paid
into the bank to the credit of the prisoner, but I can-
not swear whether it was a Globe Insurance cheque.
I, however, produce a document that was delivered
in with the cheque. That cheque was cashed at
Glyn's, and the amount carried to the prisoner's ac-
count. The money has been drawn from the account,
but there is still a small balance in the prisoner's
favour.

Mr. Roan, on being recalled, stated that the writ-
ing and figures in the erasures in the psis. book were
in the prisoner's handwriting The paper produced
was also in the prisoner's handwriting. This paper
was a pass ticket for the cheque signed by thie
prisoner. _ _

Mr. Rothney, in his cross-examination, stated that
he was positive he received the cheque and ticket,
as he entered the transaction in a book at the time.
Mr. William Steele was next examined.—l atn
a clerk in Glyn's house, and on the 26th of last
February a cheque was presented for 1,4001.
to me over the counter by one of the clerks of the
London and Westminster Bank. It formed a part of
a large charge presented on that day. I know a
Globe Insurance cheque, and to the best of my belief
this 1,4001. cheque was one of them. After pay-
ing the cheque and cancelling it, I pass it to another
clerk, who enters it into a book, and then it goes to
the ledger, which is kept by Mr. Santhory. After
the cheques are written off our books, they are re-
turned to the customers. That is the practice of the
bank.

Mr. Reynolds recalled—On the 26th of February
last there was an entry in the pass book pro-
duced for this second 1,400/. There has been an
erasure. That entry is in our ledger, and was made
by me. The cheque would be returned on the follow-
ing Wednesday with the pass-book.
Mr. Probin recalled—l remember Mr. Watts
leaving the office on the .sth of March. On
the Wednesday previously I fetched the pass-hook
from the bank and gave it to Mr. Watts. Ido not
recollect that he sent me for it. As far as I can
recollect it was either in the lower office, or close by
in the hall, that I delivered the book to Mr. Watts.
After I gave it to him I cannot say whether he went
up-stairs.

Cross-examined—l cannot swear positively that I
gave the pass-book to Mr. Watts on this last oc-
casion. I have on some occasions given the book to
other parties. I think I gave the book to Mr. Watts
on the last Wednesday that he was there; but I
should not like to swear that I did.

Re•examined—l do not believe that I have given
the book to any other person but Mr. *Watts since
the commencement of the present year.
Mr. Steele being recalled identified the
cheque produced as the form of those used by the
Globe Insurance-office.

Mr. Roan recalled—l have searched through the
cancelled cheques received by Messrs. Glyn and
Co. from the Globe-office. It is the custom of the
office to keep them as vouchers fur the payment. There
is no cheque to be found for the 1,4001. alleged to have
been paid on the 26th February. I have looked at
the pass-book, and I perceive that there is an erasure
in the item dated on the 26th February.
Cross-examined—The cancelled cheques are kept
in a drawer in the office.
Re-examined—l am a clerk in the Globe Insu-
rance-office. So was the prisoner. Ile left on the
sth of March, and has not been there since. The
paid cheques were kept in a drawer in the office, and
it was the, prisoner's duty to check them with the
pass-book. I have searched that drawer, but cannot
find any cheque with reference to the 1,4001. of the
26th February. The book produced contains the
form of Globe Insurance-office cheques, and there
appear to have been two sheets of cheques torn out
of it.

Mr. Clarkson proposed to stop here with reference
to the second case, but he had other evidence to offer
both relating to this and other cases, and he should
therefore ask for another remand. Inquiries were
still going on, and new eases were gradually coming
to light, and it would be a matter of convenience to
the prisoner that a further remand should be had if
the Court did not think fit to commit the prisoner on
the first case.

Mr. Alderman Gins said' he was in a position to
commit the prisoner for stealing a piece of paper,
namely, the first cheque ; but there appeared now to
be evidence of the prisoner having been in wrongful
possession of a second cheque, and he preferred to
remand him on that case.

Mr. Bodkin repeated that his client was quite pre-
pared to meet any case, and he had no objection to
the remand.

The prisoner was accordingly further remanded
till 'Tuesday next, with the understanding that he
would be then further remanded.
MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

Mr. BINGHAM yesterday proceeded to deliver his
judgment in the ease of the parties apprehended by
the police at 14, dermyn -street, alleged to be a com-
mon gaming-house, and fined the defendants ..51. each,
with the exception of the doorkeeper, Jones, who, he
said, under the provisions of the statute, was subject
to a higher penalty--101. In default of payment the
defendants to be imprisoned ten days, and Jones
twenty days. With reference to the three found in
the parlour, the magistrate said he hail not made up
his mind, and therefore gave them the benefit of that
circumstance, by ordering them to be discharged
without a fine.

Mr. Clarkson then said, with all due respect to the
Court, he was bound to say the present judgment
would he forthwith appealed against.
Mr. BINGHAM was very glad such was the deter-
mination of the parties convicted.
Three defendants—Goodman, otherwise Goodman
Levy, his son, and another—were discharged without
any fine. Monckton, Ord, and Lewis, three military
gentlemen, Smart, Doncaster, and Johnson, and the
doorkeeper, Jones, paid the fines under protest, and
were liberated.

WESTMINSTER.
Walter Sallis, a foreman in the employment of
Messrs. Rigby, the extensive builders and contractors,
Holywell-street, Milbank, was finally examined,
charged with stealing a great quantity of mahogany,
the property of his employers.
Mr. Sidney solicited the magistrate to take bail for
the accused, which he refused, observing that he could
apply to one of the judges if he thought fit.
Prisoner was then committed for trial at the Cen-
tral Criminal Court.
