DUDLEY.

ALLEGED ROBBERY rnam TU PERSON.—At the
Worcestershire Quarter Sessions, before Mr. O. W.
Hastings, Arthur Price (on bail), respectfully dressed,
was indicted for stealing from the person of John Bates,
refreshment house keeper, a gold watch and chain, his
property, at Dudley, on August 21. Mr. Streeten prose-
czted ; Mr. Jelf defended.—The parties were sitting to-
gether in the Cals.% Grounds in the evening, and the
robbery was a,leged to have taken place whirs the prose-
cutor's attention was directed to the appeorance of some
. . _

blast furnaces in the rising fog. The Watch was found
in a peculiar position in the Castle Grounds near where
the prisoner had passed when he ran away after being
accused of the robbery.—Mr. Jelf urged on his behalf
that it was utterly improbable that he would have stolen
the watch and chain in the manner described by the
prosecutor. He was holding a good position as chief
clerk in the goods department of the Midland Railway
Company, having thousands of pounds pass through his
hands, and it was quite unlikely that he would have com-
mitted the ingenious theft—one such as might have been
done by a member of the long firm—with which he was
charged.—Mr. Jelf acknowledged that it was eery diffi-
cult to account for the loss of the watch and its being
discovered in the place where it was, but urged that he
was not bound to account for this ; it was for the prose-
cution to prove that the prisoner stole it—A a excellent
character was given the prisoner by three witnesses.—
The jury found the prisoner guilty, but strongly recom-
mended him to mercy. He was sentenced to four months'
hard labour.
THEFT OF MONET.—At the Worcestershire Quarter
Sessions, on Wednesday, before Mr. R. Harrington,
William Hopeley, boot closer; John Kingham, gunsmith;
Louisa Robertson, French polisher; and Mary Ann
M'Guire. machinist, were found guilty on a charge of
stealing 4s 6d, the:money ot William Bourne, on the 14th
September. Robertson and M'Guire have been previ-
ously convicted.-1 sentence of six months' hard labour
was imposed on Kingham, and nine months on Robertson
and lll'Guire.
STEALING A WATCH FROM THE PERSON—At the Worces-
tershire Quarter Sessions, on Wednesday, before Mr. R.
Harrington, John M'Guire and William Hopeley were
convicted of stealing a silver watch from the person of
John Richards, in Dudley Market Place, on the 9th
September. Mr. Kenyon prosecuted; prisoners were
undefended —The prosecutor felt a jerk. at his pocket,
and turning round, saw M'Guire with the watch in his
hand, who passed it to Hopeley, and he dropped it on
the ground, when it was recovexed.—Hopeley was sent
to goal for nine months on the two charges of which he
had been found guilty, and M'Guire to fourteen months'
hard labour.
ANOTHER THEFT FROM THE PERSON.—At the Worces-
tershire Quarter Sessions, on Wednesday, before Mr. R.
Harrington, William Lyons pleaded not guilty to
stealing 5s 61 from the person of Walter John Under-
wood, at Dudley, on the 2nd October. Mr. Streeten
prosecuted, and Mr. Jelf defended.—Prosecutor was in
a liquor shop, when he felt a pull at his trousers pocket,
and on looking round saw prisoner in the act of withdraw-
ing his hand.—Evidence was given for the defence to
show that prisoner was not near when prosecutor lost his
money.—The prisoner, by order of the Court, was dis-
charged. the evidence for the defence being such that
the counsel for the prosecution withdrew from the case.
STEALING BOOTS.— it the Worcestershire Quarter
Sesssions, on Wednesday, before Mr. R. Harrington,
Richard Deely and William Taylor were charged with
stealing a pair of boots at Dudley, on the 25th August,
the property of Joseph Cooper.—They pleaded not guilty
and were defended by Mr. Jell; Mr. Streeten being for
the prosecution.—Oia. the night of the 25th August the
prosecutor was driving his wife up the Tipton Road
towards Dudley, when a collision took place with an-
other trap, and a parcel containing a pair of boots was
thrown out of the vehicle he was in, which Taylor'
picked up in the confusion and put under his jacket
Deely afterwards having a conversation with him, and
they went in the direction of the railway station. The
boots were found in the possesion of Taylor when he
was searched bp a policeman. The jury found Taylor
guilty and Deely not guilty.—A. sentence of one month's
hard labour was passed on Taylor,

THROAT IRRITATION.—The throat and windpipe are
especially liable to inflammation, causing soreness and
dryness, tickling and irritation, inducing cough and af-
fecting the voice. For these symptoms use glycerine in
the form of jujubes. Glycerine, in these agreeable
confections, being in proximity to the glands at
the moment they are excited by the act of sucking,
becomes actively healing. 64. and is. boxes (by post

The PRIVATION OF THE ÜBE OF ONEs's LIMBS while the
other functions of Nature are intact is a serious mortifica-
tion to the actively disposed. Such, however, is the con-
dition of the victims of rheumatism or goat. To walk
without enduring agony is impossible. to use the arms,
free from excruciating pain, is equally impracticable. A
feeling of gratitude therefore pervadtes the frame when
the means are afforded of using all he members without

give it a Walt and carefully follow out the directions
printed on every package, and if this is done, they will
say, like the Queen's Laundress, it is the finest Starch

see that you get it, as inferior kinds are often substituted
or the sake of extra profit. Beware therefore of spur-
