He was in amy dwegereas pmeition. In answer to me
be maid that In we wellies for another boy. Tits gas
bracket was beat; ae doubt by a recent effort to dreg it
Irma the wall.

The Lcedilayor said that very dangerous mischief might
have been the ooneequeuce of the attempt of the boy at the
bar, as the gas would, if the detection bad not taken place,
and a lighted candle had been by an accident brought into
the chamber, have at once ignited. The bey's own life also
wee endangered by tba attempt, which was in every re-
spect a very desperate one.
The mother of the prisoner *Mended to ere a high cha-
racter of her son, bat the Lord Major put a few questions
to her, from the answers to which it was evident that she
was wholly anacqtunnied with the proceedings of the boy, or
by what mimes he managed to keep body and soul together.
Him Lordship said the falsehood told by the mother showed
that the prisoner had a very had example before him, and
was calculated to encourage him in the preence in which he
had been det. ited.

---The prisoner wee thew sentswood to undergo imprimonment,
with hard labour, kw eta weeks.
