Caroline Ante and Mary Martin, two !Yids, were
placed before the Royal Court of Jersey on Friday, by the
Deputy-Viscount, charged with having returned to the Island
from England, to where they had been transported for three
years, before the expiration of their term of banishment. It
appears that the authorities of the town had sent the girls to
Weymouth, but the authorities of that fashionable watering-
place not liking the idea that their elegant town should be
made a penal settlement fur the Channel Islands, and finding
the damsels starving in their streets, sent them back again.
The Court sent for the father of Ante, who was ordered to
take her under his charge, thus annulling the former sen-
tenee, and ordered the other girl, Martin, to ba transported to
Chatham, in Kent.--Jersey Patriot.

A few days since a police officer of Faversham,
having the care of a female prisoner, placed her in. his garret ;
and to make sure, as he thought, of securing her for the nig! t,
he fix on one of her legs a handcuff, to which he appended
a chain and a twenty-eight pound weight. The wo:nan con-
trived however during the night to get out of the window and
on to the roof of an adjoining house, descending from one roof
to another, until within eight feet of the ground, which dis-
tance she must have jumped, with the cumbrous appendage
above mentioned. She has not since been heard of. Last
week the same officer was conveying three boys in a cart, on
their way to Canterbury Gaol. They were all handcuffed
together ; but on going up Broughton-hill, one of them con-
trived to slip his hand through the ring, jump out of the cart,
and run away. The other two prisoners endeavoured to per-
suade the officer to run after their companion ; this, however,
the officer declined, considering that to secure two was pre-
feT.,ble to the chance of losing all three.

Mr. ForbeS, a gentleman in Ayrshire, having, for
some time perceived that his lambs had undergone a sysent of
thinning not accounted for, set a watch %% ith his gamy keeper
and three couple of dogs, when one night last week they per-
ceived a she fox take off a lamb. They followed her to her
earth, where they shot her. They then dug up the den, where
they found four strong well-fed cubs, which our readers will
readily believe, When informed that in addition to lambs' heads
and bones, a whole lamb, the fragments of many domestic
fowls, and seven brace of grouse, newly caught, were dis-
covered to be the contents of reynard's larder.—Ayr Gazette.

A letter from Deerlyk, of the 30th of May, says
that on the preceding day there had been a dreadful storin,
which crossed the district from S. E. to N. \V. It passed very
slowly, there being little wind. All at once an olive-colour •d
cloud, which embraced the whole horizon, .poured down an
immense quantity of hailstones as large as pigeons or h •iis
eggs, mingled w►th pieces of ice, some square, some star-
shaped, of an extraordinary size. This shower continued for
half an hour, and totally ravaged all the surrounding eotuitry,
which but just before bore the promise of a mo..t abundant
harvesL —Brussels Paper.

In the course of the last week a gnitleman dis-
covered, among the stones broken to mend the road between
the church and the vicarage, in the parish of Filleigh, a slate
with the impression of a fern upon it, such as now grows 1;1
the West Indies. What renders it very curious is, that the
rock in the neighbourhood is what geologists call prim.tive
slate, arid scarcely contains any fossils. This particular specie s
of fern is generally found to accompany coal, but nane can be
discovered in the neighbourhood.—Exeter Paper.

The following anecdote was related on Monday
by Yousuf Bey at the King's table ; —On his being compli-
mented on the manner in which he spoke French, he replied.
" 1 have in my regiment 200 Arabs, who speak French like
myself, but very badly. I have also about 40 Frenchmen,
who each know about a score words of Arabic; these men,
nevertheless, talk the language all day long • they even pre-
tend to be professors, and afllrrn that we only jabber a bid
patois, which they offer to correct for us.".—Paris Paper.
GRINfALDI.—It was his custom (says a correspon-
dent of a morning paper), during his heyday, to raise the wind
by pledging himself, and for this purpose he would proceed,
about six in the evening, with his creditor ue a bailiff, to the
shop of Mr. Crouch, 4 pawnbroker, in Ray-street, Clerken-
well, state the sum required, which was immediately paid,
wait with the greatest patience till a messenvsr from Sadler's
Welk, who-always knew where tN And him, made his apdear.
anee to redeem him, and then proceed to delight an audienee
which threatened to pull the house down if he did not appear.
He was Once asked tc, 4 dinner party at the house of a clergy-
man, and when the cloth had been removed was requested to
sing, but persisted in declining ; on which his Rev. Host said,
Why, Mr. Grimaldi, I invited you on purpeze to hear a
a song.' " Did you, Sir?" replied the latter, " good even,
