A CLEROTHAN CONVICTED OP THEFT AT ()LAE-
how. —Oa Saturday afternoon last a reverend gentleman
whose name has become extensively known in coanquenee
of protracted proceedings both in the ecclesiastical and citil
courts, was brought to the poliee-mfg., charged by Mr.
Ritchie, grocer, in Ruedly.place, with stealing a package
of coffee cid some other small articles. In consequence of
the want entreaty of the accused party, who &mud meet
dui the charge brought against him, the investigation
into the circumsronees was postponed last noway, in
cyder to allow him to preach on the Sunday, which he geld
be bad promised to co. The d-fcndant, whose nuns is
Archibald Lin: gatone, accordingly made his appearance
on that day at the Felice -court, attended by his
spat, Mr. Lorimer, who eoadneted his ease. The
appearance of the accused gentleman was most respect
ebb ; end, from his !Overtired years, and his whole de.
portment while at the bar, it was difficult to believe that be
could Lave committed the paltry theft with which he was
charged. The first witness examined was Mrs. Fixable, the
wits of he shopkeeper, who stated that the amused acne
into the shop on Saturday afternoon, and asked for a gill of
spirits at U., which he obtained. He then asked if the had
any bitters, which the answered in the affirmative, but de.
dined supplying him with them Ile th. n looked at rime
tinier, and caked fir a quarter of a potted at 2d , which he
go., sad tendered in pavement of it a It. note. The wittier
had no change in the shop, but met out a memenger to
procure it. While the messenger was absent on this er-
rand, she observed the accused put into his pocket a
small twc-ounce package of offie a biscuit, and an egg,
which were afterwards taken from gis person when searched.
This testimony was corroborated by a youne girl who
Aerated to be in the shop et the time, and by Mr. Ritihie,
who teak the articles out atlas vans of the accused, end
seat for the police. The only defence set up for the primmer
was, that he had pat the articles into hie pocket by anis-
'eke. Sheriff Ackley, who presided, held there could be no
doubt of the theft havieg been clearly proven. From the
position of the prironer, it was un pewees! to say anything
es to the guilt of much an offence. lidding, ns be did, the
theft distinctly established, he had no alternative than to
administer the law, by sendiee Mr. Livingstone 40 days
to prison. The unfortunate man manifested no particular
emotion on the intimation of the sentence, bat afterwards
request. d that he might be favoured with a separate convey-
ance to rises, a ri foist which, we believe, was seceded to.

ap-
peeed before the bench for advice, scoompanied by James
B nes, the ma who was before the coon a fortnight age,
and one of Beast' claldrea, the eldest, a small stunted boy,
said to be 12 yeses old, bat wbe did not appear to be more
than seven. It will be remembered that Bonn, finding
himself utterly unable to maintain a wife and six children
upon 7e. a week, had taken three of them to the Leaden
and Winstree anion woekboase, where he left them. The
guardians afterwards unsmened him for their maintenance,
bet the bench dismissed the um, owing to the man's hav-
ing but 7a. a week, and was therefore utterly usable to do
what was nonind of him. Another reason wan that one
of the officers'of the union had told Bones that if! he would
carry the women, who was then in the union workhouse,
with her fear children, there was no doubt that the guar-
dians would make some oat-door allowing. for their
menu name ; BJDOI complied, but no allowance
was afterwards made by the guardians. On Friday
last, the guardians sent the two children home.
Mr. Basilisks said they wen usjeetifisble in to sending the
root children home, and it was a!so a mast abominable act
to try and make a pine man du what was impracticable, for
it was an impossibiliiy for him to maintain eight people on
7s. a wok, buying them out of that sum food and clothing,
In fact, the man ought to have br night the guardians before
the wiagistrstee, and they should be mad. to pay leis day's
wages, for be had not refused 'o take the children in, botag
from home at the time. The guardian.. he added, ought to
he ashamed of theme lees, sad had acted very imp liticly.
The chairman advised Bones not to plus himself in a state of
integer bag with the guardians, but to do all he could for his
children. Bones promised to do this, and an eider was then
made upon the overseer to meiatain the childrea until this
day (Wednesday), which is the board-day of the guardians,
wham Mr. Smithies and Mr. Bemuse intimated their inten-
tion of attending the board.—Boer Ewald.
