The pernicious effect of a certain class of

on the prinent charge. The evidence left no
doubt that the young gentleman's remarkable
escapade was the result of the study of the
sensational literature with which his mind had

Went to Lond.ca, disguised himself in some of
the worst clothes he could tied, returned to
Romsey, and committed the robbery, being
apprehended while in the act f conveying the

Booth's ambitions schemes have, however,
received a salutary check, and the path of glory

and ordered the indiction up n hint of eighteen

A decision relative to the sale of drink to
children has just been given by the High Court
of Justiciary, Scotland. A Glasgow publican
was lately convicted at the police-court of that
city of having committed a breach of his ceAiti-
cate by selling half a glass of brandy to a girl
"apparently tinder fourteen years of age." The
• conviction has been quashed by the High Court
of Justiciary, and very properly. The child was
sent by her He Alter, who was at home ill.
Nevertheless the I llasgoiv magistrates convicted.
Evidently these worthies are afflicted with the
typical bee in their bonnet.

There are serious suspicious that Austria is
playing Russia false at Constantinople, and
repeatierk the Metternich trick of underhand
diplomacy. It is difficult to account in any
other way for this Turkish resistance which has
been so obstinate, aunt has only given way at
last, if it has given way, int condition of Russia
also receding equally from the ponition taken up
by her. Old Christmas Day, or on our Twelfth
Night, will have been a decisive day in Constan-
t' plc Perhaps it will be like Shakespeare's
play of Twelfth Night in %Wel Viola and Olivia
change teats, and in which there is a general
masquerading all round. We still cling to the
hope that Russialand Turkey, lioth alike finding
themselves unsuppirted, will think better of a
duel a In unlearnt, mid that, with many threats
id no surrender, there will be a surrender on
'both sides.

THE DORSET InTNT BALL.

The weather of Thursday evening was anything but
favourable for this grand event, but in spite of the
drenching rain, which ha, now become so common as
to be looked upon an a "matter of (-mute,- there was
a very large assembly, nearly 350 ladies and gentlemen
being present, and the affair was a great success.
The Corn Exchange and the various apartments set
alma for the convenienco f the ossembly bail been
very beautifully adorned for the netowinit the work
having been carried out under the direction cd. Mr. J.
V. Hannah, of Cornhill, who has for many years
fulfilled the some duties, at nil times to the utmost
satisfaction of thane interested. Of course. the Corn
Exchange claims the first aVentiou, and had evidently
received it, the ntmerous flags, drapery, artificial •
flowers &c.. giving it a most artistie appearance.
Pink and white drapery, with ivy bordering, was
twunl as a covering for the lower part of the building,
whilst the reees,es were tilled up in a very elaborate
manlier, the various pillars being wreathed with
lanreAtina. The orchestra had received its his meet
of attention and bore a *WY nil," arm:trance, the
ceiling being cover.' ruith vol us alma In .retts,
whilst the railing, were hidden from clew by band-
some drapery. Why the clack was covered we hardly
know, except that the happy company should be un-
aware of the flight of the time whilst they were
"gaily tripping it- But anyway the clock was
concealed fr.nn view and was surmounted be a grand
specimen of the "four legged- tribe, for " Ileynare
looked "like life: The usual minor decoratinns haul
been carefully attendel to, and the whale of the
building looked very gay. The Couneil-ehamber was
especially grand, the rincipal object being "the
hunting trophy," whilst the Town Hall was well
bs,ked after by Mrs; Howe, of Cornhill, who in her
usual excellent style, provided all that was required in
the way of refreshment,. Mr. Hannah is to lie con-
gratulated on the success of the decorations and 111.,n
the adinirable manlier in which all his arrangements
were carried out.
