OLD BAILEY.

Mary Wilson, a girl of 22 years of age, was
convicted of stealing several bank notes from the
person of Charles Stewart.
The prosecutor, who had made inquiries re-
specting the condition of the girl, stated to the
Court that she had been recently thrown on the
town, and begged the Court that she .might he
placed.in some asylum, in which there would be
a chance that she might be reclaimed from vice.
The Court, after some consultation, assented to this
request.

was incited to acts of dishonesty. The Court,
therefore charged Mr. Newman, the Keener of
Neu` ate, to procure her admission into the Re-
