We have not the space to give the full details of this very mmarkable case, but in view of the great in- terest attached to it have collected the following particulars, many of them being now printed for the first time: George A. Gardiner was a dental surgeon by profession, and the time of his notable scheme to defrand the government was just after the close of the Mexican war, he being then about had been living many years in ‘South America and Mexico, but had never renounced his alle- giance to this government.

MISSING DOCUMENTS. On the %h of January great excitement was created in the covrt-room by the discovery that the mining title and the indictment were miss- ing, and could nowhere be found after the most careful search. They had been abstracted from Mr. Cariisle’s papers on the table in court. Mr. Wright, the jailor, declared he had seen the package under Gardiner’s arm as he was leaving the court room, but Gardiner denied in HOW MUCH OF THE MONEY WAS RECOVERED. In May, 1854, Messrs.

GARDINER FOUND GUILTY. On March 3, 18¢4, shortly after the opening of the court, the jury, who had been locked up all night, returned to the jury box,and their names ol been called, over the Toreman gave in the verdict 0 sent to Mexico,with instructions to findout when, where, and how Dr. Gardiner had carried on his enormous mining operations involving the loss of so large an amount. One of these commissions was under the direction of Henry May, a distinguished lawyer, a native of this city, but at that time a citizen of Baltimore; and the other was conducted by Captain Barry, of this city, whose testimony during the trial’ proved him to be a man of great sygacity and energy, and admirably fitted for the really dangerous errand of exploration committed to his cuarge, and which he conducted under the guise of a , | stocks of a life insurance company, and cash de- posited with a New York trust company; this was also by decree of the court. This was the total amount recovered of the £428,000 received by Gardiner on his claim. The whole exponse of the trial was ordered to be paid out of the money recovered, and it is probable nearly the whole amount was absorbed in this direction. ssees The Baltimore Poisoner.

' The charge, or insinua- tion, that Mrs. Wharton ‘inherited from her mother African blood” is atrocions, as both her father and mother were of Irish extraction.

Gardi- ner was seated inside the bar behind Mr. Brad- ley, Mr. Carlisle not being present, but a mes- senger was dispatched requesting his presence immediately. When the panel was being called over Gardiner appeared distressed, and as the verdict was delivered, made several efforts to suppress his agitation in which he succeeded by the aid of a will of extraordinary power. There was a small attendance in court on that day,the general impression being that no verdict would be agreed upon. Judge ©: fe pedier. The whole region in which, according to the pretended proofs brought by Gardiner, the alleged mine was situated, was carefull searched, but no mines of the precious metals abandoned, or then being worked could be found, though a large reward was offered by Mr. May and his colleagues, by proc- lumation, to any one who could point out any such mine there, or produce satisiactory evi- dence showing that D..

GARDINER’S DEATH BY POISON. On bis arrival at the guard room he sat down to a table to write, asking for paper. After a few moments he took some papers from his pocket, tore them to pieces and threw them in the fire. He finished his note, folded it delibe- rately, and put it in his pocket. He then said he would be ready to go to his room soon. He eiet well: behaved young lady, and she soon became a general favorite with the old and young in that neighborhood. The stories elaborated by the “lady friend” to the effect that Ellen Nugent's father was exces- sively indulgent to her; that he “supplied her munificiently with the ‘meansof keeping up a grand appearance in the aristocratic and excla- sive circies which she so gracefully adorned;” that “so lavish was she in attire and expendi- ture, that the report soon spread abroad that she would be heiress to immense wealth; that her father was a _— — &e.," jae coal report drew about her a crowd of eager admirers, and she was soon surrounded by a poor or suitors all ready to go the death for a smile of ercouragement from her lips;” and that, n withstanding all this, “Ellen Nagent was in the habit of perpetrating frauds and indalging in ices which would, had she been a poor girl, ve consigned her to a prison cell,” with other enabling the government to get a clue to the where abouts of the mine through the extraordi- nary means taken to ferret it out, created at once the general belief that the whole case was a naked fraud. The government, as soon as in possession of the requisite evidence, proceeded to arraign Gardiner for fraud. GARDINER GOES TO ENGLAND AND RETURNS TO BE TRIED. The amount of the claim awardedto Gardiner, #8 sbove statcd, was $128,750 including interest, and to be paid on the 15th of May, 1851. Gardi- ner did net withdraw it from the Treasury at ence, but allowed it to remain there until it suited his convenience.
