•Mr. Goldney, au eminent lace merchant, at Great
Marlow, stated,-hhat the prisoner had been employ,Zhi.
by him as a traveller, Irani January 180 to Novem-
ber 1-806'5 at the end of that tune be discovered;
that there was a deficiency in the prisoner's ac-,
'counts of near 15001. 'which principally arose from.
vatious quantities'of lace being returned to the pi-
salter by different eaSoniers,-- Which he afterwards
disposed( of again, rendering no account,of the sale
tor his.employcr. For this 150.01: Mr.Goldney coin-
atellCed an aelion wrinst, the prisoner ; the matter
was referred to Mr. Reynolds a banister, who of ter
inspeaing the accounts, made an award in fa'our of
Mr. Gelduey for 7671. for which sum the pr:sener
was detained, and his discharge was now;opposed,on
the ground, of his having urno..zzi4 ani concealed
theproperty'of his empl)yrr. . .
Mr. Goldnev was ex3initied to these He
produced a number of lettk'ts which' he had received
from the lii Tuner whtist. on his thrlerenr journies,

It appeared ahio that the prisoner had accounted
for 3001. 'Alp!: !I of the propetty deficient, part of
which had btten dispo,ed of by Mr. Guldney Lira-

Mr. MARRIOTT, on the part of the, Prisoner,
contended, that his. ca,e (IA i;ot come.- at all
titeaning of the clause—no -frauthi;ent
concealment of the property haying been made out ;
oh the .contrpry, the letters produi:eit by Mr. Gold-
ney proved,,,that the Prisoner had been tit 4 in,
_the habit' of informing him of the difirent quantities
.of lace returned by the various als'onaexs.

The Court, after some deliberation, determjnk.d,
that the Prisoner case did pot,,,come

He was, therefore, ordered to be discharged.

Thurstlay,night, or early yesterday morning, the
house of gr. Whitaker, the. south-side of West
Smithfield-, was broke open and robbed of upw4rds
of 2501.'in cash and Dotes : the villains, after endea-
vouring to force. the-lacks and bars, 'broke thrOugh:
the pantfel -of the street door, three inches thick; by
which, they obtained' admission into the premises.
They got clear off with their bo9ty.
A few days since, as a 'young pregnant woman,
wife of a wheelwright, at, Horsham, in Sdssex, (was
gathering nuts,in the neighbdurhood-of' that town,
was bitten on one of her legs, a little above the
foot, by an adder, and withdifiCulty she avoided the
'poisonous fano of another, which pursued her some
distance across the field. The poor v;diban, with her
conipauien, another woman; itninediatelY set off for
th;.:ir homes, a distance' of about-, two miles) but
before they had proceeded half the-Way, the venom
of the reptile had so generally affeeted the Woiinded
'female'," that she could proceed-n(5 farther, and the
other woman went to' the town and 'Provided a cart,
in which her tinfortunateicompahion 'was conveyed

Some years ago a Reverend Divine (Dr. Beadon),
who then lived in habits of. social intercodse with
Garrick, Foote, &c. was RedoX of Eltharn, in Kept.
The text he took one Sunday, at that place, to en-
large on, was, Who art thou ?" . During the de-
livery of which, an Officer,: walking ,ap the middle
aisle of the Church, supposing it a question addressed
to him, suddenly and unexpectedly- replied, "1. am,'
Silt, an Officer of the i6th Regiment of Foot, on
,a.
recruiting party here, having brought my wife .and-
family watt ,nee, and wish to be acquainted with the
neighbouring clergy and gentry." This 'answer so
deranged the congregation, and, so astoni,htd the Di-
vine, that it was with thegreptest difficulty he could
proceed,_ and his congregation listen..with a due
share of decorum.

.lei ELIGIOUS TOLEAATION.—Letters from Zurielti
of the.2oth 'September, state, that several cantons,
of Switzerland have commenced a. strong opposi-
tion to a law enacted by the Government, of Basle,:

forbidding all persons in. office. under it intermarry-
ing with persons professing the Catholicfaith, under.,
pain of\ forfeiting their right of chizenship. The,
Prote§tant cantons of Vaud an-I Zurich, the catholi,l
cantons of Lucern and Tessin, and the mixed can..
tons of St. Gall and Argovie, have declared that !hi;
prohibition is contrary to the principles of the Act of
Mediation,- and of sound toleration, and, have de4
manded that it should be ann.uilcd• .00 .

venal Catholic cantons,. particularly Sriivivtz,
