POLICE INTELLIGENCE.  MANSION-110USE. Mr. Bush, the, Solicitor to the ()manatee of Bankers for protection against Fraud and Forgery, applied for a warrant against a pc'son named Bernard Angle, now a prisoner in the Fleet. The charge against Mr. Angle was forgery. The Solicitor tp the Bankers called the following evidence :  Mr. William Pledger, of No. 3, Bloomfield-street, Moorfields, deposed that about three weeks ago he rec:ived a bill for 1801. ss. from Bernard Angle, who was the drawer of it. The bill, which was as (2ollows, was then handed iu : " July 27, 1833. " Three nionths after date pay to my order one hundred and eighty 'pounds, five 'shillings. Value received of - " Bernard Angle. " To 11r. Joseph Longbottom, Southwood-lane, Highgate. " Accepted, Joseph Longbottom. • Payable at Sir W. Curtis and Co 's. " Indorsed, Bernard Angle, John Angle,- Wm. Pledger." Witness was told by. Bernard Angle that the bill belonged to young Mr. Longbottom, the son of the Gentleman whose name was written across it, and upon' making some observation as to his ( Bernard Angie) being the drawer, wits told by him that he had drawn it, as it would look odd to have the son draw upon the father. _ _  Mr. Bush—Did you ask whether the bill was a regular one ? Mr. Pledger—lie told me it was Mr. Longbottom senior's, acceptance, and that Mr. Longbott.om was a respectable man, and kept an account IA Curtis's. I had not a shadow of a doubt on the subject, and gave him checks for the amount, deducting the discount. He told me about ten days before that he. had got a bill of young Mr. Longbotto_m upon his father, and accounted for his being the drawer in the manner before stated. Mr. Bush asked whether the witness bad discounted hills before for Mr. Angle ? Mr. Pledger replied that he had had several bills of Mr. Bernard Angle's ; that he always had the name of John Angle on the back. I-Ic had not seen Bernard Angle -since the hill was due.  Mr. Joseph fongbottom, of No: 3, Southwood-lane, Highgate, deposed that his name and address were upon the bill produced, but the writing was not his, nor like his, '1" neither had he eve'r authorised anybody to write his name upon.a bill. He kept cash at Curtis's bank, but he had retired from business 20 years ago.  Mr. Bush said that this was the case against Bernard Angle, and as that person was in the Fleet, his Lordship would upon the evidence issue a warrant for his detention. The warrant was immediately issued. Two respectahle men applied to the Lord Mayor to direct that the police should give assistance in searchinc, after a man, abourthirty years of age, who kept a leg of beef shop in the Old Bailey, and who had Id? his wife and three children on Saturday between two and three o'clock. The worst fears are entertained by hislatnily and friends, as he had not at all been in the habit of leaving his wife.  The Loan MAYOR asked whether the man's affairs were in an embarrassed state ?—The applicants replied that such they believed was the case. On Saturday morning the man spoke of the difficulties in which he was plunged, and said," That the only remedy in his opinion was death." Upon being expostulated with, he admitted the heinous nature of the crime. of suicide, but continued very much dejected.
