stone to rie.ide near London. In January last the
...faddy came to a resolution of selling out this stock,
for the purpose of lodging it in the Kent Bank, at
• Maidstone. In consequence of this resolution their
•
Secretary wrote to desire Miller to sell out the stockg
and Miller answered his let ter by saying, that as lie un-
derstood there was some difference of opinion P.71011g
the members as to the safety of selling it out, heshould
let it remain where it was, until the Society should
i fix on some place of safety wherein to lodge it. The
Society then demanded of him to execute a deed of
trust, m hick he expressed his willingness to do, pro.
tided the Society would agree to let it remain in the
Bank cf England. They then went to the Bank of
England to enquire if such stock had
_ever been
bought, when they found that' on the 2.3trof
1805, 2001. 3 per Cent. Reduced, had been bought
in the names of G. Miller, of :Maidstone, coach.
maker, and R. Bissenden, of Maidstone, grocer,
but that it had 1):•en transferred in the same names
on the 17th April, 1807. The signature of B. Bic.
sender to this transfer being shown to R. Bissenden,
grocer, .of Maidstone, he declared it not to be his;
and the Prisoner was in consequence sent for by 'NIL
Kaye, Solicitor to the Bank, who questioned bin
on the subject. The Prisoner told Mr. Kaye that he
had been authorized by the Club to purchase the
stoc): in any name beside his own he pleased ; and ha
had accordingly purchased it in the name of Bis,en.
den, who then resided at Norwich, but he did iet
know what had become of him. Mr.. Kaye shewal
him that was impossible, as jt was in the name of R.
Bissonden, of Maidstone, grocer. The Prisoner
next day, before the Lord Mayor, said he had pun.
chased in the name of 11. Bissenden, who was, at the
time of the purchase, with Russell and Pintan. of
Maidstone, grocers, who had afterwards resided at
Dartford, in Kent, `and last at Norwich : since
which, the Prisoner • did hot know what had becoine
of him.

Mt. Piman proved that they had not any one of
the name of It. Bissenden with them since the year 1790.
Several very respectable witnesses gue ttn.
setter an excellent character before this transaction.

The Jury retired for some time, and returned a
verdict of—Not Guilty.
Mary Best was capitally convicted of uttering two
forged one-pound notes, purporting to be of the Bank
of 'England.

VENERABLE AP:TWIT Y.—A traveller observed,
that in a particular district in Italy► the peasants iii•
variably loaded their panniers with vegetables on one
side, and balanced the opposite pannier by filling it
with stones ; he pointed out the advantage to be gain-
ed by loading both panniers with vegetables; he was
answered, that their forefathers, from time immemo-
rial, had so prepared their produce for market; that
they were very wise and good men ; and that a
stranger sheaved very litte understanding or decency,
who interfered in the established customs of •
country.
