ROBBERY.—The Court of Assizes of the Allier, four
days ~go, tried two men, named Hebrard and Gilberton,
for robbery. The evidence was that, in 'the night of the
29th March, 1851, the shop of a jeweller nained Laborde,
of Donjon, was broken into, and watehes and jewellery
of the value of about 7,000 f. were stolen ; that the two
accused, with some other persons not in custody, subse-
quently sold part of the booty ; and that the two men,
having been arrested on suspicion, Hebrard gave details
whichh compromised both himself and his' accomplice.
Hebrard
jury declared both
to twenty years, guilty, and the court condemned
hard labour, and Gilberton
to twelve years of the same penalty. Hebrard is an old
and notorious offender ; he has escaped not fewer than
twenty times from custody, and has been condemned at
different times to altogether more than two hundred and
forty years hard labour.
