In the examination of Mr. Newman, yester-
day before the Corporation Commissioners, that gentleman
stated " that it sometimes happened that the Sheriffs
got hold of the property of convicts, and the Corporatim
heard no more of ►t, though it ought to be paid into the
Exchequer." The city has long had the reputation of
knowing the way in which money may be best disposed
of. Sir John Hawkins repeats a story told him by a
sagacious and experienced citizen, Mr. Selwyn, who h&d
bcen a candidate for the office of Chamberlain, and wised
it only by seven votes out of near seven thou and. "He
was once requested by a man under sentence of death in
New-gate to come and see him in his cell, and in pure hu-
manity he paid him a visit. The man briefly ►nforrned
him that he had been tried and convicted of felony, and
was in daily expectation of the arrival of the warrant
for his eistecution ; but,' said he, 1 have 2001., and you
are a man of character, and had the Court interest when
you stood for Chamberlain; I sh,uld, therefore, hope it
is in your power to get me off. Mr. Selwyn was
struck with so strange an application, and to account
for it, asked if there were any alleviating circumstances
in his case ; the raau peevishly answered—no ; but that
be bad inquired into the history of the place where he
was, and could not find that any one who bad two hun..
dred pounds was ever hanged. Mr. Selwyn told kica it
was out of his power to help hire, and bade him fare-
added he, he did, fit he found means to
escape punishment.! "—Mornirly Chronicle,
