' OLD BAILEY. -.....- Dce..B, W. Bagnall the elder, W. Bagnall the younger, and T. Bagnall, a father and two sons, were tried under the Act of the V2d of the King, for coining and counterfeiting certain silver pieces, resembling the dollars issued by the Governor and Corn pany of the Bank of England.—Mr. Searjcant Bosanquet stated the case to the Court. By the Act of Parliament upon which the present indictment was framed, the offence with which the prison ers were charged was punishable with 14 years transportation, to be mitigated, if judged proper. The prisoners were a father :mil two NM, who were by trade die-makers and medallists, living in Seward-street, Goswell-street ; and they were detected, as by the following evidence, in the very act of coining. But thesingula. rity of the case was, that they were actually. using silver dollars.— The price of silver having lately fallen, so that the Spanish dollar might be purchased for four shillings and sixpence, they were counterfeiting the Bank stamp, which gives them currency for ;,.s. 6d. The two Foys, the Police Officers, stated, that they went to the workshop of the prisoners in Seward-street ; and one entered at the back-door, while the other and another officer entered at the front. Before they entered, they heard the stamping-press at work : when they got into the work-shop, the father had si. stumped dollars in his hands, and lying near the press was a tray with Spa.: • *fish dollars ready to be struck oft. the press were the two p arts * of the die for stamping the Bank impression, and the upper poet' of the die was hit. The father, upon being apprehended, desired the officer to notice that they were not making counterfeit dollars, but were stamping real Spanish dollars. These facts being proved, the elder prisoner put in a written defence, in which he Stated,' that, being a die-sinker, he was employed to make a ine4al like the' Bank Ziollar, and the person for whom he made it told him it was to be sent to Holland. He was not aware that he was doing en il legal act; and, lastly, he implored mercy for his sons.—The Jury, after a few minutes consideration, found all the prisoners Gui/t/; but recommended the two sons, one of whom is 211, and the other 18 years of age, to pardon, as acting under paternal influence. The only trial of interest during this week was that of five. pee sone named Ridgway, Hastings, Brown, Ramage, and Gates, ar raigned on Monday, the two first for stealing, and the others for receiving, a large quantity of shawls and muslins, on the rivet.. Thames, when about to be conveyed in a lighter on board a ves se l bonnd to Surinam. The principal evidence was one Flygar, tine _ fellow entrusted to take the goods down the river ; but who, hav:. ing turned King's evidence, deposed, that the prisoners assi s t e d him in committing the robbery, and in taking the stolen goods tq the house of Ramage, the Indian Arms public-house, at Blackwell. Flygar's evidence was not corroberated, and the Jury acquitted all the prisoners.
