(Trials Cox, William Risby, and Ephraim Close, were charged with stealing one of the church bells out of the tower of the church of Cherrington, value 20/, William Smart, surveyor of the roads, was in Minchinhampton on the 29th of October last. He left it about 12 o'clock. He was returning home about 2 o'clock in the morning. He met a truck which was drawn by three persons; the thing on it was about the size of a beehive, and as it went over some rough ground it sounded like metal. The next day he heard that the Cherrington bell was gone. He followed the tracks of the truck, and traced them to Avening church. On going near the truck, lie saw that it had a bell on it. He saw the three prisoners take it off the truck and carry it into Avening church. Cross-examined—He had been two years a con stable. He had not told what he then told, until after the bell was found in July. He did not know that he had been burned in effigy. There were three effigies burnt about that time. He did not know whether he was one of them. He did not say with an oath to George Rowland, that they had burned him in effigy, arid he would do for them. He believed that he said it without an oath. He knew of the reward for a long time. He never said to a person of the name of Fletcher, " D—n the bell. He wished he knew who stole it, and he would soon have the reward ; and if he had not been out at tending to what did not concern him, he should have known who did." Several other witnesses were examind for the prosecution, but their evidence was only corrobora tive. The prisoners all protested their innocence. The Jury, after same consideration, found them Guilty. Sentence Of death recorded. This occurrence arose out of a " lark," as it is called, to celebrate the triumph of Reform, the parish of Avening being all reformers. WESTERN CIRCUIT.—WELLS, Aua. 16. _ _ _ The Learned Judges arrived in this city from Mr. Dickinson's (where they dined) about 8 o'clock on Monday evening, and proceeded to the Courts to open the commission. Their Lordships are staying at the Bishop's Palace. On Tuesday morniqg they attended divine service at the Cathedral, and about 1 o'clock took their seats,—Mr. Justice TAUNTON in the Crown, and Mr. Justice PATTESON in the Pries Court. Tile attendance of Magistrates was very large. In addressing the Grand Jury, Mr. Justice TAUNTON adverted to the same topics as he did at Bodmin and Salisbury, but there was not any thing ne•.v to call for observation. Tile business on Tuesday was of the most trifling description. WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 15. Wm. Hemsley, George Taylor, Maria Hemsley, and Caroline Oyer, were indicted for assaulting and robbing John Page of a watch and other articles. John Page was a shoemaker living at Bath. Was returning to his lodgings about 11 o'clock on the 18th of May. Passed the two female prisoners at the door of the Bath Arms, in Kingsmead-street. Maria llemsley followed him to the bottom of Cross-lane, where be lived. She overtook him, and asked him if he would go for a walk ; witness said he would not ; he had no money ; he wanted to go home to bed. Cryer came up and asked him the same question, and he made her the same an swer. They had some conversation, and then asked him to go home with them, as they had no com pany, and lived near the Albion-brewery, in the Upper Bristol -road. After some time, witness con sented to accompany them home. Witness went as far as the Albion-brewery; they all stopped a few minutes talking, when Hemsley said she lived in the Upper Bristol-road, and asked Cryer and me to accompany her; witness went with them to the Oleßridge; when we got there one of the females proposed going for a walk ; went on till they came to South Hayes ; Maria Hemsley then complained of being tired, and wished to sit down, and she did sit down; saw three men coming; one said " - your eyes, what do you do here ?" and knocke►l witness down ; Wm. Hemsley was one of the three men; thinks Taylor was one, but can not swear to him ; after he was knocked down he was robbed of his watch, and Os. 6d. in money. The Jury returned a verdict of Guilty against William Hemsley, and acquitted the other prisoners. Judgment of death recorded. The other business was of no public interest whatever. an a prosecution for cattle-stealing, in which there were eight witnesses, no counsel were em ployed, upon which circumstance the Learned Judge animadverted in very strong terms, observing, that so far from that practice being likely to save the county expense, it was calculated to have a contrary effect, as the time the assizes would occupy must necessarily be protracted, for the judge could know nothing more of the case than he could glean from the depositions, which frequently, as in this case, were written in so bad a baud that it was almost impossible to read them. The reason of this we understand to arise from the following circumstance. The Magistrates, at their quarter sessions, had drawn out a table of fees to be allowed to different persons attending at the assizes on criminal prosecutions. The sum they have directed to be paid to an attorney, for his trouble ' in taking instructions in the case, perusing all the depositions, preparing his brief and fair copy thereof for counsel, and for his attendance at the assizes (where in this county he may be detained ten or sometimes fourteen days), is one guinea. No at torney therefore will come to the assizes, if he is concerned in only one case, unless his client, the prosecutor, w ill submit t o a still more unjustifiable robbery than that of which he was then complaining, and pay him for his timeand expenses when so engaged at the assizes. In consequence of this, the case is not properly placed before the judge and thejury,and the offender escapes punishment, and is turned out at large upon the kingdom, having undergone an education in one of the Somerset gaol!, under the able tuition of some of the greatest scoundrels this country can produce. The labour of the Judge is also increased to a most painful degree, being com pelled to look at the depositions in o r der to learn as to what facts he is to question the witnesses, then to examine them, and in addition t o wvite down LONDON, SATURDAY E/ENING, AUGUST 18, 1832. their statements. Whether it is the intention of' the magistrates to benefit their clerks by this regu lation is perhaps worthy of consideration ; it is cer• wilily a question, whether it would not be prudent to prevent their being concerned for prosecutions in ar►y case.. ► with the prisoner about six weeks ago, in conse• que►►ce of his calling upon him, and representing himself as a dealer in antiquities, at the same time offering a pair of ancient pottery vases for sale,which witness ultimately purchased. He saw nothing further of him till about a fortnight ago, when he met the prisoner accidentally in the street, who stopped him. to say he had to dispose of a number of bronze antiques, found on an estate near Naples, pulling out one of the pieces of bronze, now produced, as a specimen. Witness, who was ignorant of the value which connoisseurs set upon these fragments of anti quity, purchased, at various times, the whole 16 pieces, for somewhere about 91., which was only a trifling reduction of the price which the prisoner himself asked for them. Having accidentally learned that a similar description of antiques were to be seen at the Egyptian Hall, witness went to look at them, for the purpose of ascertaining what was the real value of his purchases. He inquired the price of a vase, upon which the persons to whom he put the question asked him if he had purchased any vases similar to that lately? He told him he had,and also other descriptions of antiquities, giving his card, and inviting the inquirer to come and inspect them. Monsieur Castellani did call that same day, and im mediately identified the 16 bronze antiques now pro duced. Mr. Till said he gave them up instantly, and he very much regretted that the nature of the case required him to come forward, because it might possibly appear that he had not acted with due caution in making such purchases from the prisoner. He begged, however, to state, that he had been completely deceived by the plausibility of the pri soner's representations, and from his being a foreigner. The Magistrates observed they had known and dealt with Mr. Till long enough to know that not the slightest imputation could attach to him in the transaction. The prisoner declined saying any thing in defence. Mr. DYER should fully commit him upon the charge of stealing the bronze antiques. TOWN-HALL, SOUTHWARK. Charles James, who has been several times con victed for selling unstamped papers, was brought be fore Mr. Alderman THORP. The officer yesterday observed the prisoner sell ing caricatures, and also a variety of publications. Re purchased the Poor Man's Guardian, and other works. The defendant was very communicative, and said that since he had been released from prison, he had journeyed through Kent and the adjoining counties, and had been very successful. The officer then brought him to this office. Among the many papers seized was one which represented a scene from King Richard 111. " as performed at the Theatre Royal, St. Stephen's, completely damned by an overflowing audience. Characters—Duke of Gloster, Captain Nosey; Deighton and Forrest, the smotherers of innocence (creatures of Gloster), Messrs. Lumberland and Latherall (who are in the act of smothering some one, who exclaims " Oh my Bill.") Glos. " Come to me after supper, When thou shalt'st tell the process of its death ; Meantime, but think how I can do thee good, And be inheritor of thy desires : Farewell till then." Another was termed, The Devil's Menagerie of State Paupers, which represents a variety of beasts and birds, the heads forming likenesses of those who are receiving benefits from the pension-list. Mr. Alderman THORP committed the prisoner for three months. IRELAND. LIMERICK PETTY SESSIONS, SATURDAY. A LIMERICK LASS. The first charge investigated was one of assault, in which Mr. de Courcey, the butter inspector, was plaintiff, and a young lady, named Kiely, a niece of Mrs. Sheehy, of Roche's-street, innkeeper, was de fendant. Mr. de Courcey stated the nature of his complaint in a few words. He had been, he said, on a country excursion at Penfield, near Ballysimon, the summer residence of Mrs. Sheehy, on Thursday last, and had there met Miss Kiely, who had resided with her aunt, and in whose company he was to have dined. It so occurred, however, that a dispute arose between the young lady and himself before dinner, and her conduct on the occasion obliged him to now bring her before the bench to answer for it. She had, in fact, taken a wine-glass from off the table, and had struck him with it over the nose, cutting it severely, and swelling all the neighbouring parts, particularly his cheeks and upper lip, in a dreadful manner by the blow. Every eye was hew riveted on the young lady, whose appearance, contrary to the impression pro duced on our minds by Mr. De Courcey's charge, indicated the gentlest feminine deportment and mo dest and retiring manners. She is of a delicate and slender form, and very prepossessing, if not very handsome—in a lover's eye she would certainly appear both. Her defence, as was given in evi dence, was as follows: Some time before dinner hour, Mr. De Courcey and his friends arrived at her aunt's house, in which there is but one room not used as a bedchamber, apart from that in which meals are usually served up. In this room Miss Kiely and a young female acquaintance of her's were preparing to receive their visitors. The former was undressed, and the latter was assisting her equipment by lacing her stays. This vas theourinteresting woo not situation n k o n f o ‘ t v h n e ladieshave when Mr. De. rived, like another Gilbert Glossin, burst into the room. Instead of retiring on the instant, he boldly I.loi as maintained his footing, and seemed as fixed to the he stood immoveable, despite of all remonstrance, like the pestilent visiter from whose bad influence the affrighted world now seeks to be disengaged. There are few men, we think, of ordinary feelings, who would have been proof against the expostula tions of two young girls in such a distressing situa tion, and undaunted by the rebuke even of their eyes. As it was, the complainant used very coarse expressions, because the ladies did not leave the apartment immediately upon his entering it, forgetting that the flight of ladies is not always practicable when they are in their dishabille, and wholly regardless of what decorum must have suggested to himself. But Miss Kiely heroically asserted the dignity of her sex, as we are about to show. When dinner was announced, the young lady was, of course, invited to sit down ; but she declined. She was again in vited, but declined again. On being entreated a third time to sit down, she said, " I cannot sit in the company of so iniquitous a fellow (meaning Mr. De Courcey ;) I cannot stoop to such society :" sentiments which drew from the complainant a retort in the following words—" you ! Is it the likes of you who would say so : two sods of a keerawn." We confess we are not yet so previn cialized as to understand what the latter branch of this sentence means. We never heard it before, and are ashamed to write it down. But we who per form the humble office of reporters, are sometimes reduced to the condition of the maitre des basses wurres, who has commonly dirty work to do, with out always finding gold. Miss Kiely was highly incensed by the expression just noted, and though simply the niece of an inn keeper, she was anim a t e d with the true spirit of a virtuous woman notwithstanding. She run to the dinner table, seized a wine-glass, and flung it in the face of Mr. De Cooney, from whose wounded nose (PRICE 7D.) the blood flowed copiously. But we must describe 4r. De Courcey's nose. Mr. De Courcey's nose is Roman, or, speaking in more modern phrase, of the Wellington charac ter. It is very large, and forms a high angular point at its junction with the forehead, causing a rather abrupt declivity towards the cavernous orifices below. There is nothing about it of a graceful de clination, such as is described between the plane and the prime vertical circle—nothing of the easy and natural slope to either end from the centre part as in the structure of the Athlunkard bridge. It is quite a perpendicular nose ; and any one falling from the top of it would be sure to be killed. The blood having ceased to issue forth, dark purulent matter had formed around it, and it looked for all the world like the crater of Vesuvius, with lava resting on its bosom, after the flames subside. The Magistrates, after a consultation of a few minutes, fined the young lady 2s. ed., and awarded the costs of the suit against her. Mr. Barry—You can take the full value of your nose out of that, Mr. De Courcey.—(Laughter.) Miss Kiely was then banded out of Court.— Limerick Herald. FRANKFORT ON THE MAINE, AUG. 7. (From the Morning Chronicle.) There is certainly to be found both consola tion and hope in the indignation of Europe against the brute power which tramples down German liberty. It supports us in our degrada tion, and promises relief. We do not doubt its progressive force, in proportion as our rulers in crease their tyranny. The mouth-pieces of Mi nisters, whether in France or England, may sound their notes of moderation. It is very decorous, no doubt, that Cabinets should keep on civil terms with their " old and faithful allies ;" and every one appreciates the courtesy with which a Minis ter may disavow the diatribes in which he, all the while, exults. It is, therefore, well to find, even in the liberal Press of London, recommen dations of calmness and disapproval of violence, in the discussion of acts, which outrage not only the institutions of German, but the spirit of the age, and the feelings of the civilized world. But this will not silence one patriot voice, nor check one patriot pen. All will unite in efforts to keep the sword unsheathed for a while; yet each will urge on the spirit of Europe to the now ine vitable contest, and work up the people to the pitch in which desperation flings away the scab bard. it is in vain to represent the points in volved in the Protocols of the Diet as merely German questions ; or to preach cold theories of egotism and isolation. The science of Poli tics is widely expanded of late. Other systems than those which have too long held back the world are unfolded. Truth is broader and clearer than it was. If Statesmen have not a higher mission than of old, they at least see with an enlarged vision. Almost any man can now read and understand a few plain axioms, which un ravel a web that is no longer complex or intri cate. The free countries of Europe have now one common interest, and that is the mainten ance of general freedom. Each is virtually bound to aid the other. It is a debt of national ho nour, apart from all doctrines of selfishness. But if Poland, Italy, and all Germany are en slaved, can France and Belgium (should England stand aloof) hope to escape ? And what then becomes of England, if, one by one, every other Constitutional State succumbs ? Will she be able to resist the giant combination, that even now aims its shafts against her, over the bowed heads and prostrate bodies of the crushed nations ? We are told that Germany is populous and strong enough to work out her own relief against the despots. I deny the assertion. Populous enough she is, it is true. But France and England, in sanctioning the distribution of her territory into some dozens of small States, handed her over, gagged and manacled, with teeth drawn and claws clipped, into the clutches of the three despotic Powers. Germany is a coun try of shreds and patches. It is impossible for the various Sovereigns, much less the various peo ple, unarmed and unorganised as they are, to consolidate any bond of union by which they could resist the compact and embodied power of either Austria or Prussia alone, to say nothing of Russia. What then could our mockeries of States and Sovereigns do against the million of bayonets which the triumvirate can command ? It is cruel as well as unjust to taunt the small States of Germany with their submission. And it is both ungenerous and unwise if France and England wash their hands of the affair, and leave millions of the ardent friends of liberty to perish in their thraldom. It is said that Germany should not blame France or England for her present state. I main. tain that she has every right to do so. If they sanctioned the broad surface of Germany being cut into a Harlequin's coat, they should have fostered and protected the living body of intern ast Eenro which it may be figuratively said to cover. ji h aen F ieTto t tne - 1 1 raiktortprotocols, is an undoubted fact. Their best advocates admit, that " they gave a negative answer to the inquiry as to whether they would interfere, and thereby encouraged the Diet." And what a fatal affir mative have their two negatives composed ! I can well imagine the policy (so to call it) which led to this. It was, no doubt, the condition de manded by the despots for their promised con sent to the settlement of the Dutch question. — The French and English Governments balanced what seemed a prospective evil against a present good, trusting to the sincerity which guaranteed the unholy compact, and they abandoned Ger many to secure Belgium. Admitting the neces sity to which they thought it wise to yield, Ger many has, individually, no less a right to com plain. But the case much stronger if we look back a little to what might have been done, and by which even the apparent ne cessity might have been avoided. Within this year, even miracles might have been ac complished in the cause of constitutional free dom in Germany. Its subtle spirit had pene trated into the hearts and minds of the people ; the very rulers, were unable to r es i s t i t . M an) of the small States and sev era l o f th e s l en d er Monarchs vied with each other in proofs of en lightened feeling. The universal sympathy with, and the enthusiastic generosity towards, the Polish refugees, and the debates of the various Chambers, showed what the people and their Deputies felt. The ample liberty of the press and the publicity of trial gran , ed by the Grand Duke of Baden—the emancipation of the Jews and the formation of a National Guard by the co-Regent of Hesse, and many other minor acts of liberalism, told what these petty Sovereigns were disposed to do in the spirit of generous emulation, had they been properly upheld and encouraged by England and France ; and if, so far from that, they were abandoned to the rage of Austria and Prussia, and left to choose be tween spoliation and submission, is it to be won dered at ? And who is to blame ? These puny parodies on sovereign power ? or the two great Monarchs at the head of nations note all-powerful ? And in looking at the King of England, can we shut our eyes on the King of Hanover, or cease to lament that the character of the one should be so thoroughly implicated in the con duct of the other ? If, as it is said, and no doubt with great truth, King William has re signed all interference in that latter wretchedly governed country, and made it over to his Pre sumptive Heir, one question naturally presents itself. What right had he, divine or human, in fiction or fact, to abandon the people whom it is his sacred duty to govern well, into the gripe of a man svho is morally certain to rule them badly, and who, be it remembered, may by very. probable circumstances never have any legal right to reign over them at all ? The fate of three millions of people should not be thus sported with. But if King William chooses to disem barrass himself of his duty, let him do so openly tor the sake of his own honour. Let him abdi cate at once; and then the unfortunate Hanove rians will at least know what they have to expect, and be able to decide on what they have to do. In one word—a little month has changed the whole face of German politics, and the whole tone of German feeling. War, which was so lately locked forward to with horror by the true lovers of their country and of rational liberty, would be now hailed with delight. It is, in fact, the only possible chance for Germany. The despots are compromised and commi ted to a line of absolute tyranny. The impunity of their first attempt has destroyed all the salutary fear which they had begun to entertain of popular opinion, and of French and English union in its support. They are now deaf to reasoning and blind to results. It would be as useless to ap peal to the hard hoofs that trample on an over thrown group of children. What, then, can the grieved and indignant patriots do ? Emigrate to America, as it is said the learned and elo quent Rotteck already contemplates; or take the bolder course of stirring up the public mind, and hastening in every possible way the grand crisis of a general European war. How far France and England may sympathise in this view of the case it is not for me to judge. It is enough for me to repeat that it is our only chance. The Reform Bill promises to be fertile in matters of art. An eminent sculptor, we hear, has been chosen to perpetuate in marble the labours of the chief men of the ministry. The hint is to be taken from the sinning of Magna Charts, and the portraits of Lord AL THORP, Lord BROUGHAM, Lord J. RUSSELL, Sir F. BURDETT, Earl GREY, Mr. COKE of Norfolk, and other Reformers, are to put on the sentiment of patrinti.m in Parian stone. Nor is this all, a column of granite 189 feet high is proposed to be erected, with the KING on the summit, and the base ornamented with b is-reliefs, descri bing in bronze the different stages of the Reform Bill, with its final triumph. Other columns of the same cha racter are talked of. We will venture to pr,dict that none of them will be carried into execution. When the nation was clapping its hands and shouting for the victo ries of NELSON, an eminent sculptor, FLaxmAN, proposed to carve a Britannia, some two hundred feet high, on Greenwich Hill, in honour of our naval triumphs. The nation applauded the notion, as they do the Refi•rm Co.. lumn, and then turned to something else, and thought no more about it.—Athenceum.

Thomas, of Liverpool, in the Medical Guzet:e.) POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION HOUSE. Two Irishmen, named Callanan and Fitzgerald, were brought before Alderman KELLY, charged with having assaulted Josh. Hudson, the veteran pugilist, in his house, the Half-moon, Leadenhall-market. Josh. Hudson was sitting in his bar smoking his pipe yesterday, when the defendant and another Irishman walked into the house half drunk, and called for a pot of beer. As the three men appeared to have taken quite enough, the landlord ordered the ( waiter not to supply them, upon which one of them called him " blubberhead," and cast some reflections upon his situation of life as a publican. Hudson repeated his order to the waiter, and told the men to leave the house; but Callanan, without waiting until the landlord laid do, , n his " steamer," pitched into him, and bloodshot his eye, at the same tine calling to his companions to join him in pummeling " blubberhead." They little knew, however, lbw severe a return they were likely to get. The laid lord, who was quite taken by surprise, stood, he moment he received the first salute, upon the le fensive, and catching Callanan's fist in his left hard, gave him such a wipe across the face, as placed the features completely on a level with each other, and ;he body on a level with the floor. The other Iwo were at work at the landlord behind, while he vas occupied in disposing of Callanan, and as they were strong and active young men, they contrived to overturn him, but it was only to come in for seie ral " bloody notices" of the pugilist's vigorous :e -collections. While they were all on the floor Hud son received a tremendous bite in the arm, which he exhibited to the Alderman, together with his torn shirt, which his assailants had dragged from his back. At length the police entered the house and the row terminated. Alderman KELLY—Then, Mr. Hudson, you have not forgotten your old knack, "of pitching it in," as you call it, when you are attacked ? Complainant.—No, my Lord, I shan't forget how to defend myself, but three to one was rather too much of a good thing. They hang about a man if he has'nt room to work his limbs. I saw they were going too fast, so I put out a stop. Alderman KELLY—And was it all because you refused to serve them when they were drunk ? Complainant.—Exactly so. I thought it too hard that I should be insulted and kicked about my own house for refusing to make them greater beasts than they were. Alderman KELLY—But where is the other pri soner ? The Officer—Escaped, your 'Worship. Aid. KELLY—Escaped! How happened that ? Oflicer—Why, Sir, he pledged me his honour, that he would walk quietly along with me, but the moment he had an opportunity, he broke his word. I'll never trust to the honour of such a person again, upon no account whatsomever.—(Laughter.) Callanan said that the landlord, in refusing to draw the pot of beer, reflected upon the Irish, and on being told that they were finer fellows than the people of this country, began to knock his great fists about as if they were made for nothing but bursting the wind out of people. He (Callanan), upon be ing floored, endeavoured to make his way under the table on his hands and knees, but the landlord was too quick for him, and when he tried to get away, gave him another pelt that completely " flummoxed" him.—(Laughter.) Fitzgerald declared that he did nothing but call the police, and endeavoured to palaver the Alderman. Alderman KELLY told Hudson, that his conduct in refusing to draw beer for men who already had had too much, was most praiseworthy, arid it ap peared, too, that he had riot gone a bit too far in his exertions to defend himself, and to clear his house of the defendants. The defendants were then ordered to find bail. BO MS TREE T. John Simpson, the driver of the cabriolet No. 15, appeared upon summons to answer the complaint of Admiral Lord Aurelius Beauclerck, for furiously driving against his gig, and endangering his life, and that of his servant. Lord Beauclerck was driving in his gig with his servant steadily along the street, when the de fendant, who was driving the cab No. 15, ap proached him at amost furious rate in an opposite di rection, his object evidently being to obtain the " go by " between his (Lord B's) vehicle and other car riages passing at the moment, in order to save t i me —" a great object with cab-drivers, I understand," said his Lordship, " in order to enable them to pay the exorbitant demands of their masters, and get a living for themselves." The result was, that the defendant, although repeatedly called to, drove with great violence against witness's gig, which was cap sized, and he and his man thrown upon the stones, but fortunately without receiving any material injury The defendant, in answer to the charge, did not see the complainant's gig coming, nor did he hear the call which the Admiral had described. He de nied, also, that he was driving furiously. Lord 13eauclerck said the defence was utterly false, for the defendant must have heard the call, in asmuch as he was within a very few yards, and he was also driving at the rate of at least ten miles an hour. The defendant, upon this, hoped his Lordship would not press the charge. Lord Beauclerck—My good fellow, I have no desire on my own account to press the charge against ~,, cv , y fin -r witnessing the gross conduct of your fraternity, and I know it is high time you were brought to your senses. Mr. HALLS fined the defendant 405., and ss. 6d. costs. He said he was unable to pay it, and in de fault was ordered to stand committed to the House of Correction for two months, the full term awarded by the Act of Parliament in such cases. MARLBORO U GH- S TREE T. Angelo Phillip!, a young Italian, fashionably at tired, was brought before Mr. DYER and Mr. Hos• KINS yesterday, charged with having purloined, at various times, a large quantity of bronze antiques from the Museum at the Egyptian Hall, Piccadilly. M. Andre Castellani said, he was custodies of the antiques, which were the property of a lady named. Gordon, and were deposited in the Museum for public inspection. A great number of valuable vases having been missed, suspicion fell upon the prisoner, who professed to be a great admirer of an tiques, and who was a frequent visitor at the Mu seum. On Monday last, in consequence of informa tion which he had obtained, he caused the prisoner to be apprehended, when it was discovered that the prisoner had sold, at different times, a quantity of antiques to a dealer in curiosities, living in Great Russell-street. Mr. DYER inquired of Monsieur Castallani if he considered that the value of the antiques stolen amounted to 501. " Fifty pounds," said Monsieur Castallani, taking np a fragment of bronze, about six inches in length, upon which something like a huma n fi gure (en crusted with crugo, so precious in the eyes of an antiquarian) appeared to be moulded, " w hy t his piece of ancient candlestick alone cost 12/. and the vases from 4/. to 10/. each."
