(A pair of composing cases was here produced

in which the matter was composed.)
The witness proceeded—While the prisoner
was in our employ; three pages of types of

type produced in Court of him. It the
same state at present as at that time.

Mr. Nl4Dowall identiaed the type pioduced al

The prisoner, on being called on for his de.
fence, complained that he had been treated ‘$ ith
undue severity by the prosecutors. He declared

that he MIS Pot the person who stole the [pro"

NEW COURT.—(Tuts DIY.)
Daniel Dean (who was tried yesterday and
convicted), was indicted for stealing 1301bs. of
type, value 101. the property of John Fowler
Dove, his employer.
Mr. J. Taylor is a printer in the Old ;
about 10 days ago there was a mats called 0"
him, and enquired the price of old metal, anti
went away; he came again with the type, who
witness discovered that. some of it was neW'
which led him to suspect that it was improperly
come by ; he enquired whose it was, and thu
;
man said it belonged to Mr. Dean witness,
,
chewed the type to his men, two of whom ho
worked for Mr. Dove, who itomediately recog"
sized it as his type, in consequence of which hj
caused the prisoner to be detained until Mr'
Dove and a constable was sent for; on this occa;
pion the prisoner begged for mercy on accoUtit
his wife and children.

The witnesses, particularly the prosecul°l.%
were rigidly cross-examined by the prisoner. a
By a JURYMAN--Part of the type was worked
up in Zulu's Italian Grammar, and no pool'
had printed that work for the last ten YOrl
except himself.
The prisoner made a long defence, in wbitti
he attempted to insinuate that he came by I"'.
type by other means then by theft. He wouldA
fearlessly say that the prosecutor was actuated
by malignant motives to set on foot this prose'
cution.
The COMMON-SERGEANT in repay .to sour
strong observations by Mr. Andrews on the lin' •
Igoners calumnious insinuations, said he con-idw
ed the prisoners remarks so far relavent ut Pre
Isent, as he said he intended to produce evid‘P`lc:
to prove malignant motives on the part of is"
prosecutor.
Mr. Dove being recalled by the court iAitl'
that he was not in the least degree influenced 'f.
vindictive motives, and strongly denied the n!,
sinuationl/4 againht the prisoner. Several uit ties'e"r.
were called on the part of the' prisoner,
