Subsequently the Government, upon application, consented to allow the owner to have back the metal, upon condition that the cash be first melted down and we hear the last of the spurious coins were sent to Messrs. Fenwick, Morrison and Co.'s yesterday for such purpose. We undersand that the cash, though not equal in value to those legally current in Annan, pass among the people in that country, though they are not recognized by the Government. The two Chinamen whe were in charge of the cash when seized, were brought up this morning before Mr. Wodehouse, who remanded the case until Tuesday next at 2.30 pm, defendants being allowed out on bail appeared in Court before the case came on and in two suretics each of $300 each. Mr. Mossop asked for a remand till Monday or Tuesday afternoon, as he had been only just instructed, and the case was an important one. He said that any amount of bail for the defendants would be forthcoming. The charge against the first defendant is for having in his possession a greater number of pieces than five of false or counterfeit coin resembling or appar ently intended to resemble a copper coin of the King of Annam, and that against the second is for aiding and abetting.
