MAW AND POLICE.

At the Surrey Sessions yesterday eight men were
found guilty of committing a robbery, attended with
violence, on the night of Friday, the 3d inst., on James
Goss, in the town of Croydon., ,The prisoners, while in
the act of robbing the prosecutor, were disturbed, and
succeeded in taking from him only a silver medal and
a gold ring. The Court sentenced the ringleaders
Freeman, Green, and White, to ten years' transporta-
tion ; Gee, Payne, and Cresswell, to eighteen months'
imprisonment ; and Nicholls and Butcher to 12 months'
imprisonment in the House of Correction, at Brixton.
On the previous day, Edward Page, aged 22 years,
was convicted of robbing on the Queen's highway, near
Croydon, on the 29th t., Samuel Cox and his wife,
and stealing from them 14. 3d. The convict was sen-
tenced to be transported for fifteen years. It appears
these were members of a gang of robbers who have for
some time infested that neighbourhood.
The Hatton-garden Police-court will be transferred on
the 15th inst. to the new premises, in the Bagnigge Wells-
road, and for the future be styled " Th Clerkenwell
Police-court."

At Bow-street, Williams, charged with stealing a
quantity of plate from Dr. Giles, of Windlestane Hall,
was fully committed •to Newgate for trial.
At the instance of Lord Frankfort, an Irish Peer, two
Italians were charged at the Marylebone-office with play-
ing and singing opposite his Lordship's house, and re-
fusing to go away when desired. It appeared, however,
that they were playing opposite the house of a Captain
Kerr, at fifty yards distance, and could not possibly an-
noy Lord Frankfort, and the prisoners were therefore
discharged.
COVET—FASHIONABLE.
The Duchess of St. Albans was safely delivered of a
daughter yesterday in Piccadilly.
The Earl and Countess of Orford have arrived at the
family seat in Norfolk.
The Earl of Charlemont has returned to Dublin from
Roxburgh Castle._

Viscount and Viscountess Palmerston arrived at Pan-
sanger from Melbourne Hall, Derbyshire, on Tuesday last.
Lord and Lady Walpole go in a few days on a visit to
the Earl and Countess of Orford.

The Marquis of Lansdowne will entertain Lord John
Russell, Lord Duncannon, and other members of the late
Administration, during the Christmas holidays,at Bowood.
The Earl of Westmoreland remains in much the same
state, and we understand but little hope is entertained of
his recovery.
mXSCELLANEOTTS.

The Freshwater Cliffs, Isle of Wight, are in a very bad
state from the rains, and the celebrated cavern at Fresh-
water-gate has fallen in. Headen Hill, so interesting to
geologists, is also a mass of ruins.
The great lawyer, Francis Hargrave, amassed his ex-
tensive and valuable library merely by "picking up" at
book-stalls. Parliament granted 8,0001. fur the purchase
of it for the British Museum.

There is only one fur peculiar to England— that of the
silver-tipped rabbit of Lincolnshire. It is little used in
this country, but is readily purchased abroad, especially
in Russia and China.

On this evening, in 1718, Charles XII., King of
Sweden, was killed during the siege of Frederickshall,
whilst inspecting the trenches exposed to the fire of a
battery.

EARLY RISING.—The late Chief Baron
O'Grady (Ireland), who, like the matutine planets, was
generally up before the sun, was always in the same pre-
dicament with reference to his own son, Dennis, whose
slumbers were generally prolonged into the morning.
Once when the Baron was on circuit, he knew that his
son'was engaged as barrister in the first cause, he hurried
into his bedroom, and waking him without much cere-
mony, exclaimed,
,6 Up with you, Dennis, Dennis! re-
member it's the early bird that catches the worm.' "
" Serve the worm right for being up earlier than the
bird," replied the sluggard, rubbing his eyes.—Celburn's

the Countess of Durham has plunged the venerable Earl
and his amiable Countess, and the other branches of the

the relatives of the deceased Countess in the most sudden
manner possible. The remains of the deceased lady will
be brought to Chester-le-Street, near Durham, for inter-
ment in the vault of the Lambton family, where repose
the ashes of

LECTURES ON SCOTTISH SO"
AND MUSIC. I the
Mr. Wilson, of the Theatres Royal, denture( .0
first of a series of Lectures on Scottish Song and 31051,
yesterday evening, at the Music-hall in Store-stre"

The chief charm of the songs and music of Scoth!nitifte
said Mr. Wilson, was their undeviating and extitilli
simplicity. This was doubtless owing to the so%
from which they sprang. The shepherds of the

flocks, first produced those simple airs which have Vs;
