Yesterday, Francis Edward Douglas Browne, the person charged
with defrauding Mr. Oliphant, at Charing cross, and other trades.
men, by pretending to be an Officer of Artillery, and paying for
goods by pretended checks on a banker, was brought up for final ex-
amination. He seemed extremely depressed, and stood leaning ea
the bar with his handkerchief to his eyes, during the examination.
A shopman to Mr. Gilbert, a silversmith, in Cockspur-street,
stated, that the prisoner came to their shop, and representing him!
WI. to be an Officer of Artillery, said he wanted a sm ll service of
plate fitted for a canteen, and w set being phew!), and chosen by
him, be desired the Dot:glas crest to be engraved upon it, and
begged that it might be seat to him . that night at Os borne's Hotel,
as he was obliged to join his Corps shortly. The applicant `went
with the plate that night to Osborne s, and the prisoner wrnte put
a check fur the amount, but he said he would rather have cash, as.
it was after banking hours. Prisoner sa;d he had not so mi.:hash.
in the house, and applicant suggested that the proprietor of the hotel
would lend hint the amount. He however said, he did nut like to
ask such a thing, and requested bim to call again ou Monday, be-
twepn four and six o'clock. The applicant recollecting what he had
said at the shop, about bring obliged to join his'Corps the next day,
became convinced that wrong was intended, and took the go ods
back to his master. .
Mr. Hau.s—You acted like a prudent servant, and saved your.
master's goods.
The prisoner was then fully • committed for trial on the twai
charges preferred against hint at the first examination.
