general interest.

QUEEN-SQUARE.-(THIS DAY.)
Two little boys, named Charles Guild and Francis White,
were charged with creating a disturbance in St. Margaret's
workhouse. The master of the workhouse stated that the
two boys were incorrigible, as they were continually fighting
and annoying the other inmates.
Guild was committed for ten days; IVhite was discharged.
Mary Ann Tomlinson, a girl of the town, was charged,
by a young man named John Carter, who accompanied her to
a brothel, with administering a narcotic drug to him, which
stupified him, and that whilst in that state she took from his
person 41.105. It appeared that other women were in the
room at the time, and the prisoner was remanded for a week,
to give the police time to trace them out.
William Ford, a lad about eighteen years of age, who is
well known to the police as an incorrigible smasher, was
charged with uttering a countefeit half-crown, at a pork-
butcher's in Chelsea-road, and a shilling at a public-house in
Queen-street, Pimlico.
Both cases were fully proved.—Remanded until Monday.

THE WILL FORGERIES.

MANSION-HOUSE.-THIS DAY.

This morning William Henry Barber, Joshua Fletcher,
Thomas Gmffin, and Georgiana Dorey, were brought up be-
fore the Lord Mayor, for re-examination on the various
charges of uttering forged wills, which have from time to
time been preferred against them.
Mr. Clarkson appeared for the prosecution ; Mr. Parry for
the prisoner Barber; and Mr. Flower, the Solicitor, of Hat-
ton-garden, for Mrs. Dorey. Mr. Humfrey's clerk attended
for Iletcher. The examination of witnesses was immediately
commenced.

• Dr. J. E. P. Robertson, one of the surrogates of the Prero-
gative Court of Canterbury, described the method usually
pursued in swearing parties to affidavits in that Court. On
the 16th of August he acted-as surrogate, when two persons,
representing themselves to be Elizabeth Stuart and Thomas
Griffin, attended with a proctor, and were sworn to an affi-
davit, with the contents of which they ,stated- that each of
them was acquainted; that the signatures were in their
handwriting, on which they were sworn to the truth of the
contents.

Mr. Richard Basset, a clerk in the public drawing-office
in the Bank, deposed that on the 22d of June, 1841, he re-
ceived an order of payment for 446/. 55., on account of un-
claimed dividends in stock, in the name of Eliza Burchard.
He paid 1001. in notes to the bearer of that order.—(The
witness then gave the number of the dates of the notes
which he had so paid.)
Mr. F. C. Hillary, also a clerk in the drawing-office, re-
ceived on the 22d of June, 1841, an order for payment of
446/. 55., on account of unclaimed dividends, belonging to
Eliza 'Burchard, in the Three-and-a-Half per Cents. Reduced
Annuities. He paid 3461. 55., to thebearer of the order, who
wrote " E Burchard, executrix, 9, Great Russell-street,
Bloomsbury," on the back of the order.
Mr. A. Irwood, a clerk in the London Joint-Stock Bank,
deposed that a person named W. H. Barber kept an account
in the London Joint-Stock Bank in 1841. He does not know
the person of the prisoner. On the 22d of June, 1841, a per-
son paid in 1351. to Barber's account ; of that sum,llo/. were
in notes.—(The witness described the numbers and dates of
the notes, which corresponded with those paid to the account
of Eliza Burchard, by the clerk in the Bank.)
Mr. W. Smee, chief accountant at the Bank—On the 20th
of July, 1841, Barber, accompanied by a female calling herself
Eliza Burchard, attended at my office : she came to receive
the arrears of dividend directed to be transferred to her name
as executrix of Eliza Burchard, deceased. The dividends
had been unclaimed since 1824. Barber identified the female
as Eliza Burchard, and I gave an order for payment of the
dividends.

Mr. W. Blakesley, a clerk in Roberts's banking-house, paid
on the 20th of July, 1841, a cheque for 269/. 55., drawn by
W. West, 265/. being paid in notes, the dates and numbers
of which witness described.

Mr. R. C. Fish, a pay-clerk at the Bank, paid, on the 21st
of July, 1841, a Bank note of 2001., which was undersigned
with the name of Burchard, with 200 sovereigns ; and on the
22d of July he paid other notes, also in the name of Bur-
chard, and in gold. These were the notes described by the
pieceding witness.
Mr. 11. llill was, in 1841, clerk to his brother, a stock-
broker. On the 20th of July, 1841, Barber directed him to
sell 300/. Consols, on account of Eliza Burchard. He sold it,
and accompanied Barber and a female to the Bank, and the
female signed the transfer. The •stock was sold to Henry
Smith. Witness handed Barber a crossed cheque for 2681.
17s. 6d. Barber objected to a crossed cheque. Witness
then received a cheque from Smith for 2691. 55., on Roberts
and Co., which was not crossed, and which was handed to
Barber.

Mr. E. Grattan, a clerk in the Southwark Branch of the
London and Westminster Bank, proved that the signature of
Eliza Burchard, on some of the notes, was in Fletcher's
handwriting.
Mr. Clarkson announced that the evidence in all the cases,
except thatof Hunt, was now complete, and that he should
be prepitred to go to trial at .the next sessions, He would,
therefore, ask to have the prisoners remanded.
Mr. Parry, on behalf of Barber, accused the prosecution
of attempting to suppress facts, which, if known, would raise
the strongest possible presumption of Mr. Barber's innocence.
The prosecution knew that a highly respectable solicitor had
been imposed on by the same parties, and in the same man-
ner as Mr. Barber. The parties to whom Cookson had al-
luded had not yet been apprehended.
Mr. Clarkson, in reply, stated that his Learned Friend
would have a proper opportunity of proving all those facts,
but it could not be supposed that the prosecution would call
witnesses that were unncessary.
Mr. Parry asked for a remand for a fortnight, in order to
enable Mr. Barber's solicitor to make such inquiries as might
be necessary for his defence. The Learned Gentleman then
called,
Mr. Brumhall, the solicitor to Mr. Barber, who stated that
ou Tuesday evening last facts of the greatest importance had
come to his knowledge, which, when brought to light, would
establish Mr. Barber's innocence.

Mr. Clarkson begged tosav that he himself had asked for
a remand to a day as near the commencement of the session
as possible.
Mr. Freshfield said there was another case in which, he
believed, a forgery had been committed, but he had no proof
of it. If Mr. Parry would furnish him with the proofs, if he
were in possession of them, he would cause•those parties to be
apprehended. He understood that Mr. Dorey was sustaining
some prejudice
,on account of his wife's apprehension on this
charge. He felt it right to state that he did not believe that
Mr. Dorey had had any knowledge whatever of these trans-
actions until his wife had been apprehended. He thought
it right to make this statement, as he understood that Mr.
Dorey had been injured in his business in consequence of the
prejudice which these transactions had created against him;
a prejudice which he believed was utterly unfounded.
Mr. Flower thanked Mr. Freshfield for the statement he
had just made, and stated that Mr. Dorey had suffered
seriously in his business. These transactions hacLtaken place
before his acquaintance with Mrs. Dorey, and therefore he
could have known nothing about them.

It was ultimately arranged that the prisoners should be
remanded till this day fortnight.
The depositions of the various witnesses were then read
over to them and signed.
