The old-fashioned iuuaical entertainment of NV Sung Supptr, which was first produced at Drury-lane Theatre in 1790, was revived at this house last night with the original music by Stoma. This piece was written by Mr. Prince Hoare, a painter, who wrote chiefly for his own amusement, end it has kept a tolerably firm hold of the stage ever since its first appearance. It is not so meat a literary and dramatic curiosity as the Cater nII. ialutia, but it has the advantage of being 'hotter, and law tire some to a general audience. No Sony no Su pix ris essentially an English comic opera ; the music is full of melody and rustic character, and is admirably ermined for the orchestra. The concerted pieces are particularly spirited, and the applsuse bestowed upon them last night was well merited. Miss Lollies Keeley's fine voice and musical,training were of great service in giving good effect to the revival, and Mrs. Villiers, Mr. W. Farren, and Miss Nally Moore, sang as well as fir more pretentious vocalist*. Mr. Arthur, from her Majesty's Theatre, appeared in the tenor part id Crop, by the permission of Mr. W. Harrison, and Endless, originally played by Suet; was represented by Mr. Compton with all the old traditions and practical fun. Miss Keeley introduced a new ballad, written for her by Mr. Langton ST. JAMES'S-BALL, PICCADILLY. Commodore Nutt and Miss Minnie Warren— two American dwarfs, who are described in the bills as the bridegrootnaman and brideemaid to General Tom Thumb, the lady being a sister of the General's little wife and the gentleman looking like a handsome brother of the general— appeared, for the first time in England, yesterday, at the lower St. James's•hall, in Piccadilly. Commodore Nutt is said to be twenty years of age and only twenty-nine inches high, his weight heing only twenty-four pounds. Ile is compact but somewhat stout in figure, and haa a pleasant humorous expression. Alias Minnie Warren is said to be eighteen years of age, twenty-four inches high, and to weigh only nineteen pounds. She looks like a sister of the conimudore'so and the family likeness between them and General Toni Thumb and his wife is vary remark. able. They have rather sallow skin., prominent foreheads, receding noses, and alutill voices. Miss Warren is amusingly stately in her deportment, and the commodore is a well drilled little actor, with a great deal of natural siolity. His comic song, are delivered with all the practised same and knowledge of t.ir-plity of an old professional singer. All that he dues is done in what is called " character," that is to say, he changes his dresses half a dozen times in the course of a performance. When lie appears as an Irishman, a s ailor, or so hive a representation of the "Grecian sta. toes," he looks like a child, and it is only in his evening dress that the little gentleman is strikingly apparent. He is intelligent is conversation, and wonderfully self-poseessed. Miss Warren assists him in comic duets and dances, but the chief work of the entertainment rests on his shoulders. The smallness of the two performs,' is well tested by seeding young children on to the stage. A full-grown boy or girl six years of age is a bead taller than the commodore, and a head and shouldon taller than Miss Warren. The enter. taionient is to be gives twice a day—afternoon and evening --and it lasts about en hour. ROYAL NAvsi.

There is too much reason to fear that American honour has suffered a great stain. I must, however, state to you my strong impres sion that this is not the deliberate act of the go vernment or of the nation. I have talked to many Americans, including some public men, en this subject since the capture of the Florida, and my conviction is that, in spite of some loose language and some lawless thoughts, there has been a general disposition to do what public law required. The naval commander at Fortress Monroe, where the Florida was lying and where she was sunk, is Admiral Porter, a gallant and distinguished officer, but one who bears, in his temperament and habits of mind, a very closexesemblance to the ill-starred Commodore Wilkes. His father was a prisoner in our hands, having been captured in the Essex when she was cut out by us from a neutral port ; and if I am not misinformed, this unlucky remi niscence is constantly present to his mind. We will not jump to conclusions ; more espe cially as the Florida was pronounced immediately after her capture to be scarcely seaworthy, and as her position off Fortress Monroe, where I saw her the other day, was one iu which au accidental collision might easily occur. But it is as well to observe that a personal escapade is not, unless ratified by the nation, a national offence. • This is scarcely an auspicious moment to plead for American rights. But 1 trust it is not true that another vessel has been allowed to sail from an English port to prey upon the commerce of our allies. The Americans are very good-natured ; they are so much accustomed to vicissitudes of fortune in trade that they easily forget pecuniary losses ; and the tone of their feeling towards us has been manifestly softening during the last three months, even in those circles where the ravages of the Alabama and her consorts have been most severely felt. But they are made of flesh and blood, and they will not endure the continuance of so outrageous a wrong. They will take advantage of the first war we are involved in to mete to us the measure which we, as professed neutrals, have meted to them. It is the interest of our shipowners to destroy American shipping that they maggot the whole of the carry ing trade into their own hands. Butthe interest of the shipowners does not coincide with the interest of England, much less with the dictates of English honour. The nation has been pronounced unhappy which has women and children for its rulers. But more unhappy is the nation whose rulers have no God in their breast, and who will not face the anger of a few hungry and unscrupulous merchants to guard the public safety, and keep untarnished the character of the country. I saw yesterday at Baltimore some Union soldiers who had recently returned from the Southern prisons. Those I saw were convalescents, the worse cases having remained at Annapolis. Yet even these men were greatly emaciated. My fingers wet , with ease round the upper part of the arm of one lof them. Such a tale of horror as I heard from their lips, and had heard from the lips of one of their fellow-prisoners before, seldom, I should hope, fell ou human ears. It was a colossal "Tower of Famine"—a year long Black Hole of Calcutta. Two days before I bad visited a Union hospital for rebel prisoners ; and though my un professional eye might be deceived as to details, I think I could not be deceived as to the general de_ sire to treat sick and wounded enemies with chival rous kindness, and to accord to them every indul gence which their condition required. Boiling w ith just indignation as the North at this moment is, I feel confident that the people would not tolerate any act of inhumanity towards the Confederate prisoners in their hands. This is a struggle (as every day convinces me) not only between Aristo cracy and Democracy, between Slavery and social Justice, but between ferocious Barbarism and high Civilaatiou.—l am, dc., GOLDWIN SMITH.

There were a great many carriages and thousands of people on foot, both in the Cromwell and Exhibition roads, whilst the windows of all the aristocratic residences in the neighbourhood were filled with spectators evidently firmly relying on the skill of the Sappers and Miners to carry the critical work of explosion to a perfectly sale conclusion. It is now a little over two years since the closing ceremony of the Exhibition took place, and when the last audience might be seen streaming out of the various entrances which are now only so many heaps of ruins. The treasures of art, of science, and of industry have since then been scattered to the four winds of heaven ; in the interval there have been almost as much skill, labour, and per severance concentrated on the work of demolition as had previously been devoted to that of erection ; and now, on the spot where a vast palace et indus try so lately reared its head in triumph—where hundreds of thousands of people had been a whole season daily congregated to be instructed and amused—where great organs had pealed and per fumed fouutains had sparkled—where representa tives of all the peoples of the world might have been seem hustling each other in friendly eagerness to participate iu the spectacle—there is nothing now left but a heap of the most melancholy of ruins, namely, those of a new building. The plough has passed over Jerusalem ; or, to use a more trite but still more apposite simile, "the cloud-capped towers, the gorgeous palaces," have all vanished, and almost literally left "not a rack behind." The process of demolition has been throughout entrusted to the skilled and steady hands of the Royal Engineers, and the agent used has been that terrible gunpowder which is so difficult to work with safety. The Sappers, however, have found out the secret, for the explosion which took place yesterday morning was about the thirtieth which bad been found necessary for the destruction of so vast an edifice, awl like all its predecessors it was perfectly successful, and so skilfully managed that the frail hoarding which surrounds the ruins was not shaken in the slightest degree, nor did a single brick or fragment of a brick fly over into the adjoining street. say, so admirably calculated had been the strength and direction of the ex plosion that it would have been quite possible for • man to have stood at the southern entrance whilst the charge was being tired, and to have come away completely unharmed when the whole building had become a mass of ruins. The mining party consisted of a sergeant and thirteen men, under the command of Lieute nant Knocker, lt.E., and a corporal who had charge of the electrical apparatus. The machine which has been used in all these explosions is a recent invention of some German electrician, and is calculated to play an important part in future warlike operations. Bad we had it iu the Crimean war, hundreds of valuable lives might have been saved, aud General Todlebeu'e famous earthworks might have turned out not quite so impregnable. It is a small case, not larger than an American clock, and although able, as was seen yesterday, to blow up one of the largest edifices in Loudon, might be couveuiently carried about in a man's hand. The name by which it is known in the fier vice—aaniely, "The Frictional Machine"—suggesta the novel mode in which the electric shock is generated. When the top is taken MY two discs are seen rotating on an axle, which communicates with a handle outside the box, and these are composed of ebonite, a composite material, which is believed to be the best non-conductor which has yet been invented. When these discs are made to rotate by the turning of the handle outside, friction is set up with a pad placed beneath them in the box, which pad is composed of an amalgam of zinc and mereury, and the result of the friction is the generation of the electric spark. Between the discs a steel point stands up, and as the disc turns, the point acts as a conductor, and carries the fluid along to the wire outside, not however until a signal has been given, aud by the pulling of a trigger all interruption to the current is removed. This beautiful machine was most skilfully handled by the corporal in charge, awl did its work with all the precision of clockwork and all the harmlessness of the most simple mecha nical operation. The building which was destroyed yesterday morning will be well remembered by the public as the southern entrance facing the Crom well-road. The facade was large and massive, and the great object was to prevent its falling out wards into the road. By a very skilful piece of engineering, Lieutenant Knocker fulfilled this in tention with entire success, and caused the four walls to "mire in" with the perfect safety to all surrounding space and objects to which we have before alluded. The process was something in this fashion. The front wall, or facade, was "counter sunk" at a couple of feet from the ground, that is to say, a row of holes were bored at an angle of 45 deg., and a very low charge of powder placed in These were first ignited, and the result was so to weaken the wall, as that the latter, although .till standing, could be easily brought down by a very slight additional force. The plan was in fact exactly similar to that by which the American axe man brings down the monarchs of the forest, viz., euttirg two-thirds through the trunk, and then dragging down the tree iu the direction re quired. In this case the facade having been thus weakeued, full charges were applied all round the remaining three sides of the building, and these when tumbling down dragged the façade in wards and along with them, thus preventing the casting of a single brick or fragment of a brick into the Cromwell-road. The whole operation of destructiou which, if carried out Blackfriars-bridge fashion, by human labour with pickaxe and crow bar, would have occupied at least three mouths, was iu this case brought to a successful termination in about as many minutes. The first explosion, ii !Rudy, that which " conutersauk " the facade, was scarcely noticeable, 1.1,d the second, which brought down the whole budding in crumbling masses of ruins, wag little louder than a pistol-shot. A cloud of dust rose into the air, a rumbling noise was heard, and the next minute there ivas nothing standing over the whole site of the great Exhibition building except Mr. Morrish's once famous refreshment rooms, and which we uuderstand have been handed over to the authorities of the horticultural Gardens. The ruins took the shape of large masses of brick-work, the tenacity of which testified creditably to the good faith in which the building contract had been ful fille I ; heaps of single bricks from portious of the wall which having been closest to the powder had received the strongest shock ; and still smoking masses of mortar and other rubbish, where but a few moments before had stood a stately edifice, under whose porch hundreds of thousands of persons hail passed in and out during the Exhibition season. There is nothing now left to be done with the great triumph of Captain Fowke's architectural genius hut to cart it away. The removal of the great domes was a tedious and difficult task, but we utelerstand was effected with much less sacrifice of litunau life than had attended their erection. The various arches and other portions of the exterior brickwork were then demolished by a series of small explosions, and finally the three great entrances had successively to succumb to the engineers' " petard." The last was the southern entrance, the victim of yesterday nioruing's electricity, and it now lies a mere heap of rubbish, to attest the skill of the Royal Engineers, the potency of little over a hundred I SUPPOSED LOSS OP A LARGE SHIP WITH ALL HANDS IN THE CHANNEL. A fearful loss, there is every reason to believe, has occurred in the St. George's Channel, by the foundering of the ship Floating Light, bound from Bombay to Liver. pool, with a cargo valued at upwards of 200,000/. The Floating Light was a Large Quebec built ship of 1,400 tons, and belonged to Berri. Kennedy, of Liverpool. She riled from Bombay on the 20th of Augustorith a crew of between 30 and 40 men. Her cargo comprised 5,300 bake of cotton, (averaging in value about 30/. a bale), 073 bales of jute, 28 tor of cocoa nut fibre (rope), and 90 tons of linseed. She was due, but no apprehensions for her safety were enter. tained until Thursday last, when a seaman's chest was washed ashore on the Pembroke comet, together with several bales of cotton and other wreckage. The box was found to contain papers evidently showing that it belonged to • seaman named Davies, as a seaman's discharge ticket bearing that name, and other papers, were disco. vexed among the content'. The fact of cotton being cast up also, created some anxiety that a cotton laden ship had been lost on the coast. On searching the list of homeward herd meals bra Bombay to Liverpool, and referring to the nature of their cargoes and the time of sail ing, the owners of the Floating Light were communicated with, and it was ascertained that there was a sailor named Davies on board that ship, and that the marks or brands on the bales of cotton washed ashore corresponded with those mentioned in the ship's manifest, which had been sent to England, as having been shipped an the Floating Light at Bombay. The remelt of this was that the premium immediately went up on the ship, but afterwards she was refused altogether, from the fact that • circular carved piece of wood, which had been bolted to • ship's quarter or under her stern, about 8 feet long and 7 inches broad, with sunken carved gilded letters on it " Floating Ligh," the "t" only missing, had been picked up off the same district of coast. This at once led to the belief that the ill-fated ship bad either foundered or been wrecked in the Channel during the recent heavy weather, the supposition being further confirmed by the finding of more cotton. Nothing has been heard of the crew, and the worst fears are entertained as to their fate. As may be imagined, the loots, owing to its heavy character, bas created considerable excitement among the varier mer cantile establishments interested. Captain Truacott has left Liverpool in a steamer to search along the whole carat, in the hope of finding something more of the ship and cargo. She was insured in London, Liverpool, and Glasgow. POUNDERS DAY AT THE CHARTER HOUSE Last evening the old Carthusians, according to immemorial custom, celebrated their "Founder's Dar" with the annual service in the college chapel, the annual oration in praise of their pious and worthy founder, Thomas Sutton, and the annual dinner in the old hall, to which About ninety of the former scholars, either on the founda tion or boarders, eat down. _ _ Divine service commenced at 4 p.m., and the prayers having been read by the re a der, the Hiv. Mr. Macomb, the sermon was preached by his Grace the Archbishop of Canterbury, who took his test from Proverbs xis. 2. " That the soul be without learning, it in nut good." on which be based an admirable sermon on the great value of early religious training, in the course of which he alluded in most touching and graceful terms to Leech and Thackeray, as men who illustrated most forcibly the vanity of all human interests, and acted therein as pioneers at least of real religion. . . . . . _ The company having repaired to the library and the governor.' room, the oration was delivered by the senior ' gown-boy " or colleger on the foundation, Mr. Gerald Stanly Davies, who is about to proceed, we believe, to Christ s College, Cambridge, with an open scholarship, in addition to the usual exhibitioa. He delivered his speech in graceful and flow* CiellrOni&O Latin, with a very good delivery and in the best of taste. The oration, like another "Carmen So•culare," glanced in rapid succession over the chief events of interest in the school, such as the ac cession of a new head-master, the election of Dr. Elwyn to the school at York, and the various successes obtained during the past year by Carthusian' at Oxford and Cambridg , , and dwelt in most touching terms on the death if three eminent Carthusian' during the last twelve month., all of whom were ',resent at the last " Founders' Day," Dr. Stone. a physician of eminence at the West-end, and himself the son of a former physician to the college ; and— need we add the other two names!—William Makepesce Thackeray and John Leech. It concluded by an allusion to the contrast presented by England, at peace and contented, with America, intestine Cello enemata et direpta. At 6 o'clock dinner was served in the great ball, and mos having been said by the orator, the company sat down to a sumptuous repast. Among those present we observed his Grace the Archbishop of Canterbury, the Right Hoe. the Esrl of Dalhousie, G.C.8., the Vim. Archdeacon Hale (in the chair), Mr. J. R. Kenyon, Q.C., Mr. Hunter Rodwell, Q.C., Mr. Harry Chester, Colonel Wilkinsioc, the Rev. J. Evans, tha Rev. Dr. Currey, Thomas Collins, Esq., M.P., the Rev. I. Dawson Darner, &c. The usual loyal toasts having been disposed of, Lord Dalhousie pro- posed the ancient and customary toast of " Florist Ater. num ,Carthuasoa Domus," which was drunk with three times three. The other toasts, which followed in rapid succession, were "The Prince and Princess of Wales" (whose nominee was the "Orator" of the evening), " The Army, Navy, and Volunteers," "The Governors," "The Masters of the Hospital," " The Masters of the School," &c., and the company separated at a late .hour. The collection for the " Orator, " towards his university expense", amounted, we understand, to nearly 120'. REPREsENTATION OT WINDSOR.—Last night, at half-past seven o'clock, a meeting was held at the Public Rooms. High-street. Windsor, for the purpose of introducing Meson. Hower and Labouchere (who as. about to contest the borough at the neat election with the Kasai conserva tive members, Colonel IL H. Wyse and Mr. Vanaittart), to that portion of the constituency sympathising with their views. The large room was crowded with the principal liberals of the town, who were admitted by tickets. Mr. Henry Driver, alderman. and chairman of the literal committee presided. Mr. Flower. of Stratfonl-oo.Avoe one of the liberal candidates, was present, but Mr. Labo uchere is now, it is understood, in Italy. Mr. J. Cleave read a letter which be had received from Sir William Hayter, of South Hill Park, near Bracknell, the father of Captain Hayter, who contested the borough with Colonel 5' se at the fait election, stating that Captain Hayter had no intention of agaio coming forward for Windsor: Mr. Flower addressed the electors, after which Mr. Darwin spoke on behalf of Mr. Labonebere, the absent candidate. Mr. Bedbororigh then made a proposition to the effect that Messrs Flower and Labouchere were worthy of the confidence of the electors of the borough of !Cew Windsor, which was seconded by Mr. Chamberlain. It is stated that the reason for introducing the two liberal candidates to the elartom at this early season is because the conservative members have already made a move in the borough. CIOSE Or GROL::sE SliuOTlNU.—.The season for grouse shooting closed on Saturday. Daring a whole month after the 12th August, the weather was all that could be desired by sportsmen, and the quantity of grouse killed far exceeded any previous season for many years. Is the Breudelbene and Athole districts, sportsmen generally shot on an average from 30 to 40 trace of grouse per day. tin the various moors in the neighbourhood of Crieff. upwards of 5.000 head of grouse were bagged, besides blackeock, woodcock, plover, snipe, —ell the descriptions of game' being in fine condition.

A prisoner uamed Roseiter, who was also known by tee mine of seaman, was charged before Bann Bi Allmon with breaking into Wes Loan chapels, in a remote district, and atealim communion della and bibles. He pleaded guilty. He was only 21 years of age, and his appearance was not that of ordinary omelets. He asked permission to read a statement before sentence was passed. Leave was given, and be read as follows : My Lord and Gentlemen of the Jury,—Were there not circumstances connected with the case to dispose you to Imlay, and a desire on my own part to become • free and useful member of society (for I and every other convict have failed to become a recognised one), I should desire perpetual incarceration, or resignation of this life. About eight years ago I received from this court the very severe sentence of atom years' transportation. 1 was a youth then, and the impression made was deep and terrible. From that moment a coutinuous resolution set in to raise myself to such a position that tecuptatton to theft would be an intini!c descent therefrom and impossible. I laboured through my term of imprisonment, received remission and license for exemplary conduct, and opened a scholastic in. stitution in the town of Fremantle, near the mouth of the Swan river. By perseverance and merit I obtained Pre cedence over the other academies there (as my circular ' will show); I realised sudicient to support me in • re spectable position. My pupils were of both sexes, and the children of all the respectable inhabitants and government officials of the place. Your lordship would imagine that I had recovered even more than the position I had lest. Not so ; I recovered nothing at all. To state the matter clearly, it is • Medial% Lw with West Australian society not to admit nor recognise any person who has met been • convict. I stood uninvited at their doors to trans act any business; cards of compliment assumed the form of turgid epistles, barely initialled. 1 paned ante cognised in the streets, even by my lady-pupils and the older boys. A od, to mention a trivial but aggravating inci dent, the lady of a resident shipowner explained to • Ms aionary (rote Adelaide that they were obliged to allow their daughters to be taught dancing by a convict, adding, " know that his arm most be a viper's grasp around them." Ah ! the shrine of society requires more atonements then law! I could not stand it, !and therefore petitioned his excellency for my pardon, and obtained it. My position was not a jot better. The brand remained. I attempted by marriage to force a footing; but—worst endeavour in my life—l drew forth the slumbering venom of colonial magistrates, commissary, and the whole free community at large, as " Satan among the children of Job." There are alien worse off than myself. Poor Rib. son, Redceth, and Beresford are treated with every indig. city and repulse. The former and latter were among my assistant teachers. The uneducated convicts and poor ticket-of-leave labourers who have not the means of push. ing themselves into circumstances, are reduced to the go vernment working depots ; they are crammed full of them. The straggle for life is over with them ; the free class have triumphed and set up their throne of tyranny there. A chance ship for New Zealand or India is stopped with the ragged outcasts seeking shelter elsewhere. I have not time to tell of all the barbarities practised there. This drove me to break up my establishment and go to Singe. pore ; but here, tliou.:b I had arranged with the captain how to get on shore, I was ruthlessly refused landing. I hung my shirt on the yardoron but the navy boats refused to accept of me, and I was obliged to retain to Fre mantle, tit. the wone for my journey. I next travelled to King George's Sound, procured a box, bill of lading, and booked it for Sydney. The Peninsular sad Orieatal Com pany's mail failing to arrive within three days of the usual time, I grew uncomfortable in the cramped position in which I had been placed, and the box was brought ou deck and opened. I was taken out of it and seat before the magis trates, mulct in It. and costs, and forfeited my box and freight. No persuasion either could induce the compauy's agent alter the affair to grant me • passage in their hosts to Point de Galls, and he distinctly told me that if I was caught on any of their boats he would get me thrown overboard. Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, Singapore. and Cape Colony, the only accessible ports, are closed mated us, and I'. and 0. Company will not convey con. ditional pardon men. I have laid this case before the judge advocate, Sir Alexander Campbell, of the Lownds district, who furnished me with • certificate of free dom, and I procured • passage in the Yankee coal ship to the Chincha lalamds, on condition of working my passage. I worked unloading the coals for upwards of a month. At sea I was beaten and kicked about unmer cifully for not knowing bow to do things. The mate stole my old ticket-o[44*v*, and nailed it to the main mast for all the men to look at, and gave me the 'lag" on board. The Spanish bad just takeu the island, and I could not get on shore before the captain had seen the consul, who, instead of attending to my complaint, wanted to hand use over to the commander of her Majesty's ear ship the Sheerwater, alleging that I was knowu to be so escaped convict with false documents. Here I should have had to remain at least six months before ' , tiniest. I threw his clerk down, and escaped into the streets. I was taken to a Shanghais house, but I got a flotera to take me to Pieco in the night. I then travelled to Lima, and waited for the Callao mail steamer to Panama. Thence I crossed the Isthmus, and went on to New York ; and, to secure myself from all further trouble, I took the oath of allegiance, and went to settle down with my parents in Seneca. Unfortu nately, 1 found that they had left fur England previous to my arrival, and I was ...gale left to my own resources. obtained employment at the mills, and stayed there nearly two months. The order foe draft was issued at this time, and I beheld my name, among others, posted in the district court. Now I neither bad 3W dolt. to procure exemption, nor a substitute, and I was not ready or willing to meet the inevitable fate that commonly awaits the Federal drafts. men. I had seen tro many instances of squandered litia and I therefore arranged an exit to meet the Cunard steamers at Boston. It was immaterial at that moment where 1 bout my steps, but I admit that I preferred the chance of obtaining employment in England rather than the Southern States or Canada. !landed io England with a good wardrobe but little money. My first endeavour was to ob. tain suitable employment, and what motley 1 had 1 spent in advertisements, agencies, and cireulare, my worst mis fortune being the lack of reference. 1 pawned and other wise geld my wardrobe to rapport • respectable appearance, and my applications for employment in Liverpool, London, Bath, and Bristol were without number. Of course I WAS soon reduced to the v.orkhouse, and entered the union at Bath. I stayed there upwards of a week, till I was goes ticoed about my parish, at which I voluntarily took my discharge, and thee set out ma tramp on the road. I travelled from town to town to Cardiff, receiving vagrant tickets at the police stations for a night's lodging. Filthy, ditty, and hungry I came to a standstill here, and offered myself to a recreate.; sergeant of the Glat Foot, who, on measuring me and testing my sight, rejected and discharged me. It was then that I determined upon this—to appeal to some benevolent person, to write a false testimonial, or obtain a pound or 3Ja., and emigrate. I first appealed to Miss Carpenter, of the Kingwood Reformatory, for any menial. employment. I told her my circumstauces, and waited several dais. but re ceived no reply. I then forged • testimonial of character, and called upon Mr. Saunders, relieving officer. of Bristol, who undertook to assist me to get employment ; but be kept my testimonial,' to prove them. This ncele me ilee his pretence, and change my name to Seams a. I then struggled to Rise BMs. ; fur if I could get to Sydney, Melbourne, or Adelaide by emigration, I thought I could earn a few pounds ou the passage out to start myself there. Also, I coming front England, no doubts would be °uteri shied about my freedom, and I should soon be able to realise money sod move in good society. I indulged these hopes so much that I yielded to the teuiptatiou to commit the crime. I was at the time, in order to save motley, living ou one meal a day, sod sleeping at threepenny !edging lumen. Hunger and destitution preyed sore upon me, and 1 foolishly yielded. The young man's voice weakened as be proceeded, and he ended in a burst of teats. All in court looked on with sympathetic interest. _ _ B.iron Bramwell looked at him, and told him that was the read time be had leen his face is that court. On the Ent common, eight years before, he was alnsoet a child, and way brought up on a chargo of hi.;huay rubbery.
