Uttering Counterfeit Coin.

Three lads, named Hayward, Hunt, and Mills, were charged with tendering a bad half-crown and two base shillings to Mrs. Collard, of the "Monarch Tavern," Stour-street, on the evening of Saturday week, in payment of beer, for which they had received the respective change, and the prosecutrix, on finding that the coin was bad, and knowing that she had received it of Mills, accused him of having passed it, when he said he had taken it of his employer, and would take it back to him. The other two prisoners afterwards called on Mrs. Collard, and admitted having passed the two bad shillings, and gave her the amount, but she refused to return the bad shillings, which she put into the hands of Spratt, the police inspector, who ascertained that Howard was in the employ of Mr. Alfred Neame, soap and candle manufacturer, and that he had been occasionally employed in cleaning out the counting-house, where there was a drawer containing base coin, from which doubtless he obtained those tendered to Mrs. Collard. The evidence not being considered sufficiently conclusive, the prisoners were discharged with a caution.
