BANK OF ENGLAND, SEPT.
THE GOVERNORS and DIRECTORS of the
BANK of ENGLAND have thought it expedient to pub-
Bab the following statement of the Trial of JOSEPH NASH for
Forgery, with .a Cew to prevent the.comtnission of such offences
In ftrorei under the impression that the Offenders Will not be
punished with the same degree of rigour as for any other species
of Forgery.
Tit t LINO ACAIN3T jasrPn NASH, FOR. 'FORGERY.
The prisoner was. ind:cted for forging a Bill of Exchange tiir
.0489. 3s. purpo:ti..g to be drawn front Banbury upon Mr. Tho-
mas Cobb, of Neweate•stn-et, and to be subscribed with the
name of `g James B,litionds" as the drawer, payable to his own
order, and indorsed with the name of " flow.; Edmonds." The
sill was also 106r:ea by the prisoner in the ffrm of " Thomas
nod Joseph Nash," and discounted by them at the Bank.
It was clearly proved in evidence, that there was no such per-
nonitt existence at Banbury as James Edmonds; and that the
prisoner, knowing that to be the fact, had uttered and dispo4ed
of this Bill to the Bank, and received the amount thereof less
than the legal d.scount.

Mr. Barwon GRAHAM, In bis Address to the Jury, stated the
law upon the subject, and its application to this particular case,
ab follows:

" The prisoner is charged with having forged, and with hav-
ing uttered end disposed of and put aivay the Bill of Exchange
in question, knowing It to be forged. We are not to look to
what the prisoner thought, but what was utually-done by LIM,
and what constitutes forgery. Forgery is the false making of
any'written instrument; of an esseratial part of it, with intent to
defraud. The yrisoner, either by himself or others, has made or
disposed of this instrument, at the instrument of lames Edmonds,
of Banbury : there being no such person there, that is a false •
making. The prisoner begins the Instrument in the cha-
racter lit' a man who does not eSist, for we mutt believe from
the eildence, that there never was such a ;man as lames Edmonds
tendon at Banbury. James Edmonds, as the instrument pur-
ports, draws the bill payable to his own order, and endorses it.
l'he Batik would say upon discouni Mg the bill, there are the
names of two solvent persons in Llitidon upon the bill, Nash and
Cobb, and they have a Correspondent at Banbury, whose name
is also on the bill. The pri,.otier held out to the Bank the secu-
rity of a third person, who does not exist. Cm it to said, that
this is no: an imposition on the person who takes the 8.111 Then, !
as to the intention of the party who disposes of it, it is not
enough that the prisoner intended to pay the bill when due the
intent to acquire a credit which did not belong to the bill is obvious,-
and arises out of the transaction itself. His intention to take up
the bill dip.nded on his owe, or Cobb's solvency. The fraud con-
sisted in his holding out a further and false security."
The Jury retired for a few minute!, and found the prisoner
Guilty, but recommended bin to mercy, and in this reeonimen-
dation the Bank. concurred; and his Royal Highness the Prince
i''''Serlf has been graciourly pleased to grant the prisoner a free
Nat don.
The law, in Ais case, as laid down by Mr. Baton Graham, hat j
received the sasictigti 41 the rtnelve Judges, in various instances.
