The public are respectfully < lutioned against some unprinci-
pl ed empiries who have as..etted Mr. E. S.'s name and pro-
fession, and are from his immediate neighbourhood, and,
with the most unblushing effrontery, issuing from the daily
press puffs about " Newly-invented Spectacle Lenses," and
Hearing Instruments, which are fraudulently set forth as pos-
sessing the most wonderful powers. The Glasses are highly
detrimental to the sight. The names of some obscure apothe-
caries and others are used in this absurd quackery, to deceive
the public into a belief that these pernicious glasses possess
some very supernatural powers. These common Lenses may
be purchased for one shilling the pair, and for which the most
exorbitant charges are exacted by the parties, against whom
th public are now respectfully cautioned. Mr. E. S. has re-
ecived for his invention " Royal Letters Patent," and the pa-

NORTHERN CIRCUIT.—CARLIsLr, .FEB. 23

_Harrison Flatiy.r Ave •ffotersigsaii,-
and other zpiatsett-She
The prosecutor is a Pole, but has for a period of about 15
months carried on business as a furrier in the ci y of Car:isle :
the prisonee is the teacher of writing in the grammar-school.
Mr. Davis being very imperfectly acquainted with the English
lingua-go, especially with the mode of writing it, as well as of
keeping accounts in the Engbsh manner, was induced to em •
ploy the prisoner to give him the necessary information. In
the month of August last Sir. Davis became attached to a
young lady of the na.rae of Moore, resident in Carlisle, wilt
whom; however, he had no acquaintance further than having
on two or three occasions seen her in his shop as a customer.
On this basis, however, he ventured to write, and tieing unable
to compose his epistle in English himself, the assiitarice cf his
fsiend Flaaher because indispensable. Two letters wen, sent,
which did not, however, come immediately to ti e hands of
Miss Moore, who was absent from Carlisle on a visa, but
immediately on receiving them the returned them to
Mr. Davis. Two days after Mr. Davis met her in the
street, and asked her if she was aware his letters had been re-
turned? She replied she was, and there, so far as Miss
Moore was concern: d, all correspondence between them ceased.
Shortly afterwards, however, Mr. Davis received a letter, pur-
port ng to come from Miss Moore, and informing him that the
letters had been returned at her parents' desire, -expressing re-
gret at the cireemstance, and a wish to reeew the correspond-
ence. Such at least were the contents of the letter, as read
by Flather, whose assistance was called in fur the purpose. Mr.
Davis of course wrote in reply, and Flather undertook its de-
livery. In this way about thirty letters were received, all
containing protestations of love and affection, which grew more
intense as they proceeded, and many of them (what might have
excited Mr. Davis's suspicions) making requests for money.
With these requests Mr, Davis always complied, and the en-
closure was always committed to Flather 's hands for safe
delivery. In this way money to the amount in the whole
of from tel. to POl. was handed over. Matters went on in this
way till the month of December. Mr. Davis being induced
to be satisfied without any more direct communication with
the object of his attachment, by the entreaties contained in the
letters purporting to come from her, that he would not en-
deavour to see hey lest her parents should become acquainted
kith the circumstance. There were, however, at his request
several appointments for an interview, but these were
always countermanded on some plausible pretext. All the
letters received were c arefully treasured up by Mr. Davis,
and placed in a bundle together. One day, however, the
bundle was left for a moment in his private room while he
was called into the shop, leaving Flather there. It was for-
gotten at the moment, and when inquired for, the bundle
was missing;. An anxious search was made, a reward
was offered, but all in vain, and Mr. Davis dismissed his work-
people in consequence of his suspicion of their dishonesty.
fwo more letters, however, were received subsequently, and
were produced at the trial, when it appeared little wonder that
Mr. Davis had been obliged to call in the prisoner's assistance
to decipher them, there being hardly a word from one end to
the other that could be deciphered by anybody. The first of
these contained, as the prisoner read it, a further request for
money—namely, 1(11., for a purpose which made the request
irresistible—namely, to hire a coach to take het to Dumfries,
where she would meet Mr. Davis, and become Isis wife. Sir.
Davis could not command the 101. at the moment, but incinsed
5/., and promised the remainder on the next day. This letter
also Flather took away to deliver, and returned in about ten
minutes, saying he had placed it in the hands of Miss Moore
herself. The next day a letter was received through the post,
which was equally illegible with the former, but. which the
prisoner's translation made to say that the money had been re-
ceived. Before, however, the remaining Si. were forwarded,
Mr. Davis learned that Miss Moore had been for some time ab-
sent in Liverpool, and that consequently she could not be
the party replying to his letters. He mentioned this to
Flather, who was very indignant at the charge thus implied
against his honesty, and immediately threatened an action
for defamation ; and the day following a letter, intimating his
intention to commence legal proceedings, was received by the
prosecutor. He, however, had in the mean time applied to
an attorney, and on inquiry a warrant was issued for the pri-
soner's apprehension. On searching his house there was
found a shilling marked with the letter A, similar to the one
which the prosecutor had enclosed to Miss Moore, and a so-
vereign, which the prosecutor recognized as one which had
been forwarded in a similar manner, and which he had marked
in testing its goodness. Cards and pink paper similar to those
in which the sovereigns were enclosed were also found. The
shill ng in question was also spoken to by the party who paid
it to Mr. Davis ; and further evidence was given of the pri-
soner being frequently in the prosecutor's house, of his bring-
ing letters purporting to be from Miss Moore, and taking
away others in reply, containing enclosures of money.
Arm Moore deposed to the receipt of the two first letters, of
their being returned, and of there having been no further com-
murdeation whatever between them.

the prisoner was found Guilty.—Sentence deferred.
