NOBLE RESISTANCE TO TEMPTATION.-"'
Thursday morning last, a boy who lives in Williams"
burgh, found a pocket-book, containing 401. On show-
ing it to his master, he was told to take it to his mother,
who, though a very poor woman, never for a morner,t
thought of converting any part of it to her own use ;
on the contrary, she immediately proclaimed it by the
town-crier. So poor was she, that she had not money
wherewithal to pay his fees, and deemed the money too
sacred to touch ; but such honesty could well be trusted,
and the crier proclaimed on credit. The woman,
troubled in mind with the care of such a treasure, deli-
vered it to a gentleman in town, who, on examining the
book, found from the marriage lines contained in it,
that the owner was a Mr. Graham, a teacher in Glas-
gow, who had been married on the Monday before, and
who was on the point of embarking for Berbiee. This
afforded a clue, and yesterday the gentleman set off for
Glasgow in quest of the owner. On arrival there he
found he had departed for Greenock, and after leaving
a message for the factor, whom Mr. Graham had ap-
pointed to wind up his affairs, he returned home. In the
afternoon, the factor came to Paisley, received the
money, and left .51. to reward the poor woman whose
son had found it.—Paisley Advertiser of Saturday.
EXTRAORDINARY CASE.—On Saturday after-
noon a lengthened investigation took place before Mr.
Wakley, at the Rose and Crown, Burn-street, Lissom-
grove, respecting the death of George Yates, aged and
formerly a gentleman's coachman, who was found
huddled up on a mattress, in the corner of his apart-
ment, dead, under very suspicious circumstances.
Mr. George Hodges, of No. 22, Chapel-street, Lis-
son-grove, cheesemonger, stated that the decease& to-
gether with his wife, had occupied the second-floor front
room in his house four or five years. He saw him alive the
beginning of the week, pass in and out of the door. Within
the last four or five days he Ind neitherseen nor beard a_y
nY

usual, even if sloe went down stairs, be suspected some-
thing was wrong. 'What induced him to have a stronger
impre3sion that such was the case was the fact that,
within the last two or three days a strong stench h_ Aa
arisen in the house, which he could not account far•
