Judge Roosevelt thought that the point whieh re- quired argument in this case was—let, whether this wasa cane OE ERY; and 2, wholes tals + is authorised to go into It, Ir. Basteed would then eonfine his remarks to these points. The question should be tested vy the laws of this 8 ate, whether or not it was the crime forgery of waleh Hoilbonm stemce aeeused. The loeai law oft! and the fae whether or not the crime va beem committed, learmed eounsel then quoted Raseell om Crimes, p. 818, and other works, to prove that in Es TE Wye Bela that whave theze was no false on- ere was mo forgery; that if a person has authority to sign for ‘anotier br eonsiders in good fai h that he bas the authority, it in nota forgery to ase such name. Neither is it a forgery if it is made out taat the prisoner bad fair J bbc for using such authority, Nor is it forgery to endorse « bill of exchan; “(per pro- evra’ ”? without authority. (1 Carr, va. Paine.) Ase suming the facts in the depositions to be true, there has ben no such crime comumitie! as that mentioned in the ‘eaty. Turning to the laws of New York onthe subjsct, Judge Nelson srys, (Howard XIV. p. 143,) toat these are the laws whion must reglate the Judge in ceeiding u, ‘the criminali:y of the prisoo*r, and tmia would be the independant of the spscitc provisions of the treaty iterlf.

Allthe teatin cay goes to chow thet Heilbronn re- ceived this momsy a the egent of Molntonb & Uo ; and upon that evicenee the Court will have to decide wastner iv ia forgery or not. There is not the slightest ev.dence as te bow far the au'hcrity of Heilbronn exieaded to re- ceive movey for Mclutosh & 00.; aed yet it is upon tis that the question of his guilt or innoseuoe ohiefly de- pends, The question of intent is settled by the de;onents themne) One swears, ‘A‘ter Hoiivrona ab:conded, I o;ened the derk he bad used acd found tuerein s memo- rardum in his hand-writing, headed ‘accounts noi a¢- counted for,’ amd amouzg them one for this very bill, whica is sali to be a forgery.” That this youn; man has used the fuads of ‘his employers éannol ‘be coubted; bat-by no distertion of the lay can tt be wade cud that he bas committed a forgery. It is to be noted that there is no affirmative evidsnos that the nature of Charles Molntosy & Cov pany is in the han writing of Heilbroun Some believe it to be. Brockle‘on swears that Heilbronn was not aatboriss to entorse that Dill) Why does he mot swear whither or not he was allowed te encore any bill? Tbe only remaining affl- davii is that cf a telisr of the bank, who projucen the nd states particulars. It was preseat the 8th of August last, long after it was due at tue Bank of England. He says, ‘I paid the amount of i; to = ose son who wrote upon the back of it, xander Heil bropn.’’? Tris is the wole of his evidence.
