and found in the possession of Cooper.

- William Burrell and John Cook were indicted for
stealing fourteen sovereigns, and two 51. notes, the pro-
perty of two Polish Jews.
John Frilevierg deposed that he was a licensed hawker.
On the Bth July he was in the Jolly Etis:ler pubic-house,
in Uxbridge, about eight in the evening. He and his
partner were drinking tea, when a person came in, sat
down beside them, and commenced a conversation about
a (.I,g which he said he had lost. During lhit conver-
sation, the two prisoners came in Hod also sat don n,
but neither of them seemed to know the other. By and
bye, the one not in custody produced a lock, on the merits
of which he largely expatiated, and said that no one but
the maker of it and himself could open it, or he would
f ,rfeit 50/. He left the lock upon the table, and went
out of the room, when witness took it up and at I filer
opened it. When the stranger returned, the prisoner
Burrell said that witness was entitled to the 50/., he hav-
ing opened the luck ; the other said it was impossible, and
pressed witness very much to make a bet up .n the in 'tier.
After a great deal of persuasion he put down four sove-
reigns and two five-pound notes, and got ten sovereigns
from his partner, all of which he put down as his stake;
the other party put down nothing. In the inean,irne the
stranger took up the lock, and witness was cautioned by his
partner that it h.d been changed. The prisoner Burrell then
took up the money, and on witness catching him, he gave
it to Cook. They both beat him, and one of them severe;y
bit his thumb.

The witness was cross-examined by Mr. CLARKSON,
~Ut nothing material was elicited to shake his tes•iwuor.
Fie positively denied that he wished to make the bet, or
that he hail ever asked the other party to put down money,
though he had put down his all.
Samuel Schintoloski was examined through an inter-
preter, and corroborated t!,e other witness.
A countryman named Wright was in the house at the

time, and saw the transac•ion. He corroborated the other
about the lock ; but in his cross-examination, he said the
Jew, Fridesbe.g, was very anxious to make thf• bet,
and that the money was given to Bondi as a stakeholder
by the person not in custody. Stransoin, a constable,
took them both into custody, and on them found three
sovereigns, a pair of scissors, a knife, and three thimbles.
In his cross-examination, Mr. Clarkson was obliged to
appeal to the Court, in order to obtain proper answers to
his questions. He said in the whole course of his expe-
rience, he had never seen a man behave with so much

impropriety in a court of justice—an officer of six years
standing ought to know better.
The prisoners dented any knowledge of the other person
implicated. and stated that they were in the house by
mere chance.

The JUDGE summed up, and the Jury instantly found
them both Guilty. Sentenrerl to 14 y...irs transprtatinn.

ADELPHI THEATRE.-Tt►e performances at
this delightful little theatre have been well attended during
the week. Among the most attractive of the junior per-
formers is a young lady named PETTIFER, whose ver*ati-
lay of talent—she plays as many various parts as CLARA
FISIIRR—is, considering her age, must surprising.

On Thursday a respectable Jury was im-
panelled by the Sheriff of the county,' in this city, to assess
damages in the case Daily v. Flicker, fur seduction, in
which the defendant suffered judgment to go by default. It
►ppeared that plaintiff was a person of respectability, and
defendant, the son of a substantial farmer in the neighbour..
iworl, had for a considerable period paid his ad.tressea to
plaintiff's daughter, whom he bad succeeded in seducing,
after repeated promises of marriage. The present action
was brought to recover co,npensation for the Joss of his
'laughter's services.—Damages were assessed at 2001.

In noticing yesterday the failure of Messrs.
Bischoff and Cm, it was erroneously stated that they have
to establishment in Mexico ; their only American houses
ere in Cirthagena di Colombia and in Bogota. All the
G.rman bills drawn on the house for wool, those from
Cidis and Gibraltar, and, in fact, all foreign bills, will,
ve understand, be protectel. The establishments at Cadiv
tad at Chraltar will, it is said, fulfil all their engage-
•nen►s, assistance baying been obtained on the spot, and of
suffer no interruption to their business from this
failure.

By accounts from Toulon it appears that the
