tion it appeared that the prisoaer, a short time ego, had
stripped the grave clothes off the body of her aunt, then lying
,a corpie, and had pawned them. It also appeared that the
young: girl had beet some tine ago admitted into the Rev.
Alr. Knox's school, but had there stolen several of tha
articles belonging to the children. From a statement,
however, made by Mr. sl'Nerney, inspector of the poor, it
appeared that the stepmother of the girl Kay was very
negligent of her. After deqberating on the case the bench
ums-A.(l her. nrenaratory La sending her to a Protestant
Reformatory.
AN EDUCATED YODTll.—John Wood, a lad of about
fifteen years of age, and son of a chimney sweeper, was
charged with throwing stones in Argyle-street, on Sunday
afternoon last. In the course of the eviaecce it turned out
that the boy, ho had been forseveral years attending
the Rev. Mr. Knox's scliool, was perfectly unable either
to road or write. The charge was proved, and he was
fined I s 6 !.

A FOREIGNER IN TROUBLZ—CarI Franz, a German, and
a coppersmith 11 trade, was charged with stealing a pair of
pincers from a journeyman painter, named Ileum, which
articles hal been placed in a loft above the cooperage of the
Seacombe sugar house. B:sides the pincers, there were
various other articles missing. Tie evidence in the case,
however, not being quite conclusive, the prisoner was
dismissed.

JUVENILE SPORT.—Four boys were summoned to the
court for having broken five of the Cog-bar railings in the
Birkenhead Park, near to Mr. Wall's school. Mr. Wain,
clerk to the Commissioners, stated that it was a wanton
outrage, and one which ought to be put a stop to. The
damage done to the railings would amount to 20s, but as
an example and warning to others, he (Mr. Wain) con-
tended that a heavy penalty should be exacted. The
father of two of the boys appeared in court,
and stated that while he admitted :he charge, he was pre.
pored to make good the damage by paying the sum of
2s 6d. In the further hearing of the case it came out that
during the last twelvemonths damage to the amount of
about £lOO had been done to. the railings. The decision
was that the defendants should pay'the 20s and costs, with
a penalty of 2e 6d for each boy.
LIGHTING RATE FOR OXFON. —This case arose from the
circumstance that a ratepayer, named. John de Lamere, had
refused to pay the lighting rate of lOs 61 to Alfred Jacobson,
the collector. It was elicited that Mr. Jacobson had not
made a memorandum of the precise time when he had made
application for payment, and in consequence the case was
dismissed.

WARNING. TO NYMPHS OF THE Paya.—ln the case of
Emma D,vyer, a notable in the township, against a young
man far the maintenance of a child said to be his, and
which had stood adjourned since last Thursday, itappeared
that the com9lainant had gone off to Chester races on
Tuesday last, and further, that the story of her having had
a child was all a fabrication, Mr, Bretlieiton, who appeared
for the defendant, intimated that, as Dwyer had perjured
herself, s'eps would he immediately taken t. have her
apprehended and purished.

ESCAPE OF CONVICTS FROM BRISTOL GAOL.—During the
night of Sunday, two desperate convicts, named Stilman
and Farr, succeeded in effecting their escape from this
gaol. Stilman was found guilty at the last Gloucester
assizes of a highway robbery and attempted murder,
attended by circumstances of such extreme violence that
his victim was for some weeks in a state of danger, and he
was sentenced by the learned judge to fifteen years'
transportation. Farr was a systematic coiner, and was
condemned to a long term of imprisonment. Stilman, on
his return from his trial at Gloucester, made a desperate
attempt on his own life by hanging himself in his cell, and
was only detected just in time to preyent the completion
of the crime. He has been suffering in his health since
in consequence, and was placed in the infirmary of the
prison, where also Farr, who is subject to occasional
fits, was secured. They were both seen safe at nine
o'clock on Sunday night, and at four o'clock next morning
the night patrol discovered that they had escaped. The
authorities are of opinion that they could only have
accomplished their purpose by having bribed some of the
subordinate officers, as the locks and fastenings are intact,
showing no traces of having been in any way tampered
with. This impression is strengthened by the fact of the
gaol authorities having but a shurt time ago detected and
thwarted a conspiracy for the escape of a notorious
burglar, to accomplish which as much as £lOO had been
subscribed by the swell mob. Stilman and Farr escaped
thus :—lt is a rule of the prison that every prisoner shall,
on retiring to rest at night. place his day clothes on the
outside of his cell door. flaying by treachery got out
into the corridor, they gathered up the different men's
cravats. flaying tied them together so as to form a rope,
they left the infirmary, pressed the Yard by the chapel,
-
scaled one or two ernall watts, and having reached the
outer wall, they contrived to throw the end of their
worsted rope over the wall, so as to catch a garden Fake,
which they had tied on to it under the outside coping.
They then climbed this rope, and descended into a field on
the outside. In their descent one of them must have
wounded himself, as considerable marks of blood were
found about the wall
