ESCAPES FROM PRISON.

A ash!
____ young —.a was brought up ....
charge entered in the books of Covert-gartien watch-houseWS
night.
The watchman stated, that at twelve o'clock last night the pri-
soner was standing in King-street, Covent-garden, talking toe
Frenchwoman. There was a crowd et' women about him, and be
desired him to move on. The young man refusing to obey, he took
him to the watch-house.
The constable of the night said, when the charge was brought in
he was disposed to treat it as one of a trivial nature. The pd.
toner, however, declared that the watchman had exceeded his duty,
and he would have him discharged this morning, as he had lately
caused to be done in a similar case. It was in compliance with his
own wish that he had locked him up, .and now brought him to the
office.

Mr. 1111:t8stuLL—What have you Pay to this, Sir?
Prisoner—l merely told the watchman that I thought I had a
right to stand still, and spotlit to an one. I persisted In stating my
right to that al:et, and he immediately sprung his rattle, and had
me dragged to the watch house.
Sir IL-IltßNlE—Pray, Sir, are you an inspector of watchmen,
that you talk of their tights. What are you ? Bow do you get
your living ?
Some reluctance was shown to answer this question.
Sir It. BIRNIE—It is your business to answer my questions:
Pray., Sir, are you a thief or an honest man ?—An honest man, I
hope
fhcn how do you manage to live; what are your means of in-
, come ?

I live with my father, and lam a stock-broker.
Sir R. Brawls—Very well, Sir, you must not conduct yourself
impertinently here.
1 do not with to conduct myself otherwise than with perfect de-
corum. I conceived that it was the right of every one to stand in
the streets it he had business of any kind ; and that n man ought
not to be di egged through the streets to the watch-house fur merely
speaking to an acquaintance.
Mr. 31 ziestut; Li. and Sir R. Biltxtz here informed the prisoner
that the watchman had full power to order him to go on if he thought
proper, and to take him into custody if he did not obey. It was
for that purpose they were stationed in the streets. Riotous as-
semblies might be made in the streets at night if this were not the
case. The young gentleman was further informed, that the watch-
man had denit very leniently with him.
The young man appeared to dissent from this doctrine, and was
again admonished to be careful of his behaviour. He wu required
to put in bail to gnawer the offence at the Sessions.
Mr. AIINSMILL seemed to be of opinion that his own recogni.
lances would be sc.ficient
Sir It. Binste—l know what I should do in such a case. Are
you sure that he is a stockbroker' I have strong reasons to;
doubt it.
The Prisoner—l am not aware wind moon Sir Richard has to
doubt my word. I don't see why I should be insult. 4 by him, or
by any one.
Mr. Aliwurni.L—You should not speak in that way, Sir. ;
Prisoner—Why should Sit Richard Hittite be allowed to call ins
a liars lie here threw his card upow the table. It was inscribed
" Mr. Fredetick Gamble, stockbroker, 7, Birchimlaue."
The card was handed abont for inspection. Upon looking into
the Directory, it appeared that this gentleman is the son of Mr.
Gamble, patentee of the new method or preserving meats and vege- '
tables in all climates.

Mr. 31ixsurm.—You have conducted yourself cc indecorously
here, that I shall send you to be locked up till you procure bail.
Mr. Gamble was locked up accotdlogly.
EFFECTS OF JEALOUSY.
A gun-maker appeared before the Illagistrates this morning. to
answer a *arrant for an assault, taken out against him by his wife.
The complainant, a very decent woman, bearing an infant in her
arms, with two line children holding by her gown, stated her case.
She ;aid that her Ituaband's =duct had of late become so had. that
she was unable to bear with it any longer. The other morning be
came home at one o'clock, wheu the was in bed, and renewed his
ill treatment, till she was obliged to take refuge from his blows by
bursting open the door of the bedroom, and rushing down stairs,
where she was protected from further violence by her Landlady and
the lodgers.
The landlady corroborated tills testimony, and said, that when
ehe paw the complainant coming out of her room, she was covered
with blood.

Tite husband, in answer to this charge, admitted the assault, but
said, as he had no wish to expose his wife, conduct, he would not
enter into any justification.
AIL Mlles HV T. L—You have nothing to say against your wife, I
due say, and you should not therefore make insinuations. Yo seem
to take good care of your children, both PS to their food and rui.
ment ; why can you not behave better to their mother ?
The man said he was able, thank God, to pry well for the keep
of his children and his wife; but he repeived he had had provoca.
tion enough for what he had done. lis only went out on Monday
night, after the labour of the day, and his wife charged him with
meeting two women at the corner of the street.
Mr. Mutant: Lt.—Mt, I suppose titers is jealousy in tl.e case.
The wife, here bursting into tears, declared that the accusations
which her husband brought against her were quite insupportable
to an innocent woman. Mather than submit to it, she would go
into the streets with her children sad beg her bread. She had wit.,
nestles to prove that, wbere they last lived. she slept with him for,
weeks with an open knife under his pillow. Every night her life
was threatened, owing to the unfounded jealousy of her husband,
and at this time she was on the eve of her confinement.
blinsuuhk called upon the husband to give bail, himself
in 20/. and two sureties in 10/. This, he observed, was not a com.
MO case, and he did not know that be ought not to require larger
be:l. lie must not be allowed to ill use hi.: wife because of his Idle'
fancies. He was satisfied there was no foundation for them, and he
hoped they wruld yet live together happily.
The man shook his head ; lie admitted he was fond of his wife,
but he could not agree to hi .s suspicions bairg no more than fancies.
He was taken away to put in bail. Considerable interest was ex..

lIARLIIOIIOVGII-STLINET, AUG. 17.—MT. Parkinson, en ex-
tensive soap-boiler and tallow-chandler, residing at Brentfurd, ap-
pesred at this odic°. before Mr. Dyte and Mr. ROE, llagistrates,
to answer au information laid against bins at the instance of the
Commissioners of Excise, for nviecting to pay a certain amount
of they ou a certain day tiaLajosete, on which it became pay.
able according to /he Act of Parliament, and thereby incurring a
penalty amounting to 2GW.
It appeared from hlr. Parkinson's atmoment, which was ad.
mitted to be true, that on the day on which this duty became pay.
able ht sent a check upon his banker in London, for the amount, to
the collector at Brentiord ; but that person thought proper to refuse
accepting the check, and said the amount must be paid in money
before two o'clock that day, on an information would be laid against
him. Mr. Parkinson represented the impossibility of sentitng to
his banker's for the money and baring the messenger back by two
o'clock, but that as soon in the day as the messenger did return the
amount should be paid. The roesseoger was despatched to town
with the check, and re,urned about three o'clock to lirentford, hay-
ing made all possi bid haste, and At that :tour the wtoney wan ten-
dered to the ccllector, hut he roused to accept it. It was also ten-
dered on the rest day, but it was also then refused, and the come-
quence was, that the infamuujott was hdd against him. life.
Parkinson said he was aware that a check on a banker was not a
legal tender, but for theism twenty years his establishment, whit%
has paid large sums duty to thssLecise in the year, never paid In
any other way but by a check oat their banker, which was never re.
fused Intore this time.
The Magistrates said, that this might he very true, and might
certainly have boen sufficient to lead lilt. Parkinson into the erect
he had fallen; but the Excise Officer was, notwithstanding, it)
point of strictness, justified in layiag the ioformarion i but then it
warfor the Magistrate to decideou the case according to IN merits g
and, from what row app,aret'., they could not think of indicting
any penalty on Mr. Parkinson, but merely ordered him to pay the
tens. •

The costs were stated by the Excise Officcre to. amount to 30s.
I,e exorbitant,

On Saturday week, a horse-dealer of the name of Joshua Cade,
living in Spring-row, on the Beverley road, was taken into custody,
by Mr. Lee, one of the constables of Hull, and keepet of the
House of Correction. We understand two separate offences were
imputed to hint—one, the stealing of a horse from the neighbour-
hood of Pocklingtoo, which he had left on sale with a blacksmith,
near Stockton ; and the other, the stealing of a horse from Coatham,
near the latter place, with which he returned to that neighbourhood,
and which he sold to his own brother!—Cade was apprehended
late in the evening, and was placed by Mr. Lee, in what had always
been considered one of the most secure cells, near the top of the
prison. It now appears, that there was a want of caution in the
erection of this building. The roof is flagged, but the upper part
of the cell is merely laths aad plaster. Through this the prisoner
easily made his way among the rafters, and then, by removing a
flag or two, gained the top of the gaol, which is about 30 feet high.
To facilitate his descent. he took his bedding, two blankets, and two
rugs, and having tied them together, fastened one extremity to a
hold-fast, whiz!) happened to be left in the wall, and, it is supposed;
held by the other. This contrivance. however, would not enable
him to reach above half way to the ground ; and as the piece affixed
to the holdfase appears to have given way near the top, it is pre-
sumed he fell considerably more than that distance. One of the
ghbours, about three in the morning, was awaked by the noise,
heard aloud groaning, but supposing it to proceed from some
man, took no further notice of the ci,eunistance. The
were found by a watchman, soon after, not far from the
, but his suspicions were not excited, and he did not comma-
: the fact tili the man was missed. The blankets were very
Jdy, and a large quantity of blood was also found on the spot,
that it is supposed he has sustained considerable inju. .Not
slightest trace of the fugitive has sicce been discovered.—York
rat.
Saturday afternooh, about half-past three, eight convicts
their cscapeprorn the Caltonhill gaol, Edinburgh, in the fol.
ng manner :—One of them called to a turnkey to take out a
bundle of clothes to wash, and contrary to the gaol orders not to
open the airing ground gate except when tau turnkeys arc present,
he opened the gate for the clothes, when he was instantly knocked
down, and the whole eight ran along the centre passage, the inner
barrier gate being also open, contrary to rule. When they got to
the outer gate, they knocked down the turnkey stationed there, took
his keys from him, and opening the wicket, got off. They were
almost immediately pursued, and five of them were kept in view
for some time, but were lost sight of among the lanes near the Gib-
bet-toll. None of them had been got at a late hour last night. The
following are the names of those who escaped :
James Mitchell, sentence of death. transmuted to transportation
for life ; John Shalpe, ditto ; Walter Broomfield, seven years ;
Henry Gunn, for life ; Alexander M'Farlane, fourteen years ;
Alexander Mackay, seven years ; Robert Smith, fourteen years;
Thomas Tomlinson, ditto.—John Murray. for life, was in the place
from whence thy made their escape, but did not accompany them.

A ROSTISII MIZACLE.—In Miss Baillie's History of a
Residence in Lisbon, we find the following instance of gross
ignorance and superstition :
" In proof of the gross superstition of the lower classes, I will
relate a circumstance that has just occurred, and which occasions an
excitement and interest in Lisbon which are almost incredible.
At the distance of a few miles from hence is a mule field, in
which a peastat boy was chasing a rabbit ; the animal crept into
an aperture in the side of a bank, closely followed by a dog : the
boy, surpried to find that the latter did not return, determined to
ascertain what had happened to prevent it, and, accordingly, groped
his way into the bank, through th e same narrow entrance; what was
his astonishment on finding himself in a sort of cave, or hermitage,
at the upper end of which he beheld an image of the Virgin 1 The
discovery was soon made public, and the miracles affirmed to be
worked by this image go on daily increasing ; all ranks of persons
are hastening to the spot and it is asserted, among other popular
tales, that when the boy first entered the cave, he found both the
rabbit and dog upon their knees, in devout adoration of the image.
A few days after the opening of the shrine, this treasure unac.
countably disappeared, and an active search immediately coin.
manned, which was happily terminated in the following manner
A peasant was ploughing in the neighbouring fields, when sud.
denly the oxen stood still, nor would the sharpest application of the
goad induce them to move ; the peasant, after vainly puzzling
himself to account for their obstinacy, chanced to cast his eyes
upon a tree overhead, whereon hang the identical image, for whose
recovery all hearts were anxions. No sooner had he beheld the
phenomenon, than the animals began to turn round and round the
tree, in mystic dance, and completed the ceremony by falling upon
their knees like the rabbit and dog l"
A Dutch Jew, named S.amuel Bonduy, lately died at
Amsterdam, leaving funds to build and equip six ships of
the line of 74 guns each: there were found in his house
4t casks full of coins of all the Princes in the world. A
Irnonth was occupied in taking out and arranging these
coins, anti eight days in counting them. This man had
Ifor a long time followed the atinies of France, visited all
Europe, Africa, and America, and some of the establish-
ments of Asia. He was 96 years of age.
Joe Miller is said to have been the proprietor of the
principal booths at May Fair and Bartholomew Fair, and,
acting the droll, became a universal favourite with the
public, from which circumstance Colonel Motley prefixed
his name as the ostensible editor of the collection of jests
gathered by himself, anti which arc to this day the classi-
cal standard with all punsters.
• The hail-storms and torrents of rain have dcne great
injury this summer in several provinces in the interior of
the Russian empire ; the district of Sengiley, in the go-
•veniment of Simbersk, in particular, suffered very severely
on the Ist June.'

A German Paper states that the drought has so dimi•
nished the water of one of the arms of the 111, at the village
of Elil, near Betideld, on the ancient site of a Roman
town, that the bed of it can be dug up. Roman medals,
rings, keys, agraffes, and other antique ornaments, have
been dug up. As soon as the Prefect was informed of it,
be sent an engineer to the spot to direct the excavations,
and to take care what is found shall not be destroyed and
lost to the arts.

Of the winter of 1651-8, Evelyn remarks, that it was
the severest that any man alive had known in England.

pected to he gayer than they have been for many years
past. There are upwards of forty prisoners for trial,
among whom are sir for murder."
Yesterday morning, a dog, supposed to be mad, was
killed in St. Clement's Church-yard, by W. Nesbitt, the
street-keeper: in killing him, the keeper had his stick
bitten in hall by the dog, who was very ferocious.
By a Brussels paper received last week it appears that a
journeyman baker had obtained in the Vienna Lottery the
grand prize of 120,000 franks. This may sound high in
the German states, but our friend Carroll, the present
Lottery Contractor, has managed much better for English
adventtuers, having in his scheme no less than four prizes
of 23,000/., equal to six hundred thousand francs each,
with many other capitals and prizes, formiqg a grand total
exceeding five millions of francs, and which will he elistri-

The great foot-race over Amesbury course. between the
celebrated runner Nash, from Nottingham. and It. Frampton,
Esq. of Banally, for 1000 sovereigns, took place on Tuesday. It
had excited the greatest interest, Nash being considered the fastest,
runner of the distance of this match (12 miles) in England ; and it
was known that Air. Frampton could do more than 10 miles within
an hour. The course of two miles was thronged with spectators,
and the runners performed each two miles as under, Mr. Framp.
