conduct of a witasea.—Mr. Salentine: If the court is of
opinion I bed not the right to put a certain guestioe, I will
not do so.—The Recorder: You did not take the observa-
tions I made in the spirit they were intended.—Mr. Sat
lantine (with much warmth) : Surely cancel know how to
conduct their client's cam the best. —The Recorder: I must
say that I think there is scarcely any othr gel gave ntleman at
the bat who would not have taken the hint and
understood the object for which it was meant. It was done
with a friendly leeling.—Mr. Salentine: I de not take
it in that light. I do not think it was meant to be
kindly ginn.—The Recorder said he was not to be
" schooled " and dictated to. If there was any ob-
jection, it most be raised in a legal and regular manner.
'Proceed with your case, and if it should be necoasari I .tall
atop you if you pursue the same line of cross-exammaden ;
for the court is bound to protect the witness.
The witness was then re-called, and his stars-examinadea
on the material facts of the cam continued at some lase*
but nothing of importance ern tliakd, Omni wltaimie
ware called and tlantined and cross-examined at onsahia,
able length. Theirevidence wentprincipally to show that the
prisoner, who bad been " hard up " immediately berme the
robbery, had all atone. become very " flush." It alsoappeesod
that there was no communication internally between the
room of the prisoner and that in which the money was kept,
but that there was a shrinking or warping of the boarding
which separated them—Mr. Salentine having addremed
the court at great length for the prisoner, called Mr. Foul-
otos, miller, in Derby, step-father of the prisoner, who said,
that about eleven weeks age he had remitted to the prisoner
two DX sotto, and very shortly after three 61. notee. Re
said that the prisoner's mother was receiving an annuity on
account of the prisoner, from his father.—The Recorder
summed up.—The jury, after a short consultation, returned
a verdict el Guilty.—Sentence deferred.

NEW COCRT.—Beta' the Common Want
ENnIZZLiMs7/7.—Edward King, a man of respectable
appearance, was indicted for embezzling three sums of
money which ha had received on account of his employer,
Mr. Burials, of Oxford-street. The evidence clearly proved
the sums of 6s. 6d., 11. 14a, and 31., were paid to the pri
sonar, and that they were not paid to Mr. Burton's mish-.
—This jury found prisoner Guilty.—Sentence, 6 months'
hard labour.
Erracre or Cuatoerrr.—Abraham Israel, a German,
was indicted for stealing sixty-five yards of sheeting,
the property of Mr. A. Glover, a warehouseman in the
City.—The version of the affair given by the prisoner was
that he entered the warehouse of Mr. Glover (to whom he
was slightly known), sin company with a friend, to look into
the Directory for an address, when, from curiosity, he took
=I wog in question to inspect it. He was directly
lq on assistant with attempting to steal it, and this
lot soli vs Whet upon him that he threw it down, and en-
deavoured to stake the best of his way est, but he was given
in charge. He said the police had taken possession of
papers which would prove him to be of unsullied
reputation. Ho said he had been a teacher of
German and Hebrew at Swansea, and was known to a great
many respectable individuals. The °Meer said this was the
cane.—The Common Serjeant said that the prisoner might
have had no intention to commit theft, and it was probable
that his conduct had arisen from excitement.—The jury
found the prisoner Not Guilty.—The court directed the
papers, &c., to be restored to Mr. Israel.
