MIDDLESEX SESSIONS.—This Day.

The adjourned November Sessions commenced this
morning at the Sessions House, Clerkenwell.green.
(Before the Assistant-Judge.)
ROBBERY BY A BARMAN.

Francis flatswell, barman, was charged with stealing
certain silver money, the property of his employer, Mr,
hompson, a licensed victualler, and Andrew Rart was
charged with receiving the said money, knowing it to havo
been stolen.

From the evidence it appeared that the prisoner Hatswell
was in the habit of serving Hart with various refresh-
ments at the bar of his master's house. The day's
'taking" at the till under the charge'cf Hatswell, a watch
was kept and other means taken to ascertain whether
he was dishonest. He was in the habit of
ing carriages on Sundays and, in company with o'.hcrs
driving into the country. H:s employer, feeling rositive
that such recreation could not not be consistent with the
honest means of the prisoner, determined upon tliscovering
the manner in which the luxuries were procured, and in a
short time the prisoner was detected in giving money out of
the till to Hart. •
The Jury found both prisoners guilty.

The Assistant.•Jadge said it was a most lamentable thirg
that servants with good wages and board and lodging
could not refrain from plundering their employers. Ho
should like to know the amount the prisoner had taken from
his master.

Mr Thompson said since the prisoner had been in custody
the " takings" had increased frum Bs. to 10s. a day.
The Assistant Judge sentenced Hatswell to nine, and
Hart to six months' imprisonment, with hard labour.

James Allen was found guilty of stealing a quantity of
silver-plate and other property, valued at £7.

Sentence deferred.

Charles Ricketts pleaded guilty to an indictment,

charging him with stealing two iron slabs. As there
was s former conviction proved against him, ecotone° wa a
also deferred in his case,

Important Lifeboat Services

BLIIiENEY, NORFOLX, Nov. 5,

I have the pleasure (writes the ltev. It. 11. Tillard) to
report that the Lifeboat of the National Institution hero
has been instrumental in saving six livcs this morning. A
French Chasse Mare?, the Eleanor, of Nantes, came on
shore last night about half-past nine o'clock, the wind
blowing hard from N.N.W., and the night hazy. At day-
light she was seen from Blakeney, and the weather being
bad and the 82a very heavy, it was determined to send the
lifeboat out to her. The vessel was en the West Sand,
about an hour's pull from the boat house. When the
lifeboat got alongside, it was found that the vessel was
aground, waterlogged, and rolling very heavily, the sea
breaking over her. All hands on her were within a very little
of being washed overboard in sight of the lifeboat's crew ;
they were prevented only by an oar lashed across the rig.,
ging. The poor fellows were overjoyed at the sight of the
lifeboat, and only too glad to leave their vessel and get on
board the boat. They were landed at Blakeney Quay about
ten o'clock. The lifeboat crew speak in the highest pos-
sible terms of the boat, and especially of her sailing before
the w ind, with a heavy sea following. They also say
that she behaved beautifully in returning under canvass
and in pulling out against wind and tide, with a very
heavy beam sea. The cost of this valuable lifeboat was
presented to the National Institution by Miss Brightwcll,
of Norwich.
