THE FRENCH REVENUE.—The Moniteur of Sa-
turday publishes a comparative statement of the receipts of
the public revenue during the first three months of the year
1836, and of the first three months of 1834 and 1835 ; by which
it appears that the receipts for the first quarter of 1836 exceeds
by 11,543,000 francs that of the first quarter of 1834, and by
4,867,000 francs that of the first quarter of 1835. This shows
a more prosperous state of the French finances than was
Chefan-
nounced
a days ar,o.
At Gloucester assizes John Tarlin-g, aged eleven,
and William Tuberfield, aged ten, were indicted for assaulting
on the highway, putting' in bodily feat, and by force of arms
stealing from the person of Edward Brunsdon half-a-crown.
The capital part of the charge was not pressed, and these ju-
venile Turpins, whose heads scarcely reached so high as to be
visible at the bar, pleaded guilty to the charge. They were
sentenced to be well whipped and discharged.— Worcester
Journal.
