Turner, late Postmaster of Macon; he remained there during the night; the accused laid $1,300 on her bed the next morning and told her if she were asked where she got so large a sum, to say she found it. The witness afterwards went to Macon, Ga., and there passed some of the money. She was arrested for passing counterfeit money and indicted for the game, and came to testify in this case by advice of her counsel, Five other witnesses were examined, whose testi- mony was to the effect that Shureman passed a fifty dollar note on a grocer in this city, who carried itto bank where the teller declared the signature a for- gery.
