The Common Sergeant—l wish you would be quiet or
leave the court. You have retired from the cause, and you
have no right to impede the business of the court. The
case must proceed. ,
Mrs. Somerset, the wife of the last witness, identified the
watch as her property. The crest in it had been partly
obliterated, but it was still very plain.
Police-constable, 256 V, arrested the prisoner and found
on his person the watch, purse, pencil-case, and other things
which had been identified by Col. Somerset as his property.
The Common Sergeant informed the prisoner that was
the case against him, and having summed up the evidence,
The jury returned a verdict of guilty.
Mr. Lewis said a depositor's book in a savings bank was
found, in which the prisoner had £BO standing in his name.
The prisoner had been in the service of the prosecutor
about two years, during which small sums of money and
articles of clothing had been missed. The prosecutor com-
plained of the constant thefts that were taking place, and
prisoner advised Col. Somerset to be very careful, as he (pri-
soner) thought there were dishonest servants in the house.
Several servants had been dismissed on his surmises, and
there was reason now to believe that they were perfectly
honest. Anther circumstance which greatly aggravated
the robbery was that, on the voyage from Gibraltar to Lon-
don, Col. Somerset gave a travelling bag into his possession,
telling him to take great owe of it, as it contained valuables
to the amount of £7O. On his arrival in England the pri-
soner declared the hag had been stolen, as it could not be
found, and there was every reason to believe that he was
the thief.

And as compared with the month ending the 9th of April
1859, the above returns show an increase of £131,589
in the circulation .of notes in England, and an increase of
£377,762 in the circulation of the United Kingdom.

THE CENSUS.—BiIIs are passing through Parlia-
ment for taking the census in 1861. The English bill con-
tains a new requirement, that every person shall state what
is his religious profession. Objection has been taken to this
in some quarters, and it is said that many persons will find
it difficult to range themselves. The Irish bill avoids bring-
ing the point before Parliament by directing generally that
an account shall be taken of all such particulars as the
Secretary for Ireland shall indicate. The council of the
Statistical Sociaty recommend that it be left optional whether
an answer shall be given to the inquiry respecting religious
profession, and they also suggest that some particulars be
collected of the character (as well as the number) of the
dwellings of the population, and that an effort be made to
institute a decennial return of some kind of agricultural
statistics, and to collect information respecting the income
of charitable and beneficent societies and institutions, such
as exist in nearly every parish and in connection With every
place of worship.

Domestic Remedies.—There are two periods (specially in
woman's life, which require, for safe passage, judgment
and attention. Irregularity is apt at those critical times
to take place and to lay the foundation of future disease.
Holloway's; Ointment well rubbed over the defective
organs will soon restore them to the full performance of
their natural functions, and completely relieve the system
of these first seeds of disease. The Pills, safe in anon,
and effective in result, should be likewise taken, as they
contribute materially to the ointment's efficiency. The
proper use of these domestic remedies prevents nervous-
ness, hysteria, erysipelas, dropsy, and a host of similar and
often serious disorders. By expelling all impurities they
maintain a clear silky complexion.

THE YORKSHIRE WOOLLEN TRADE.—III their
annual report, presented to a general meeting of the mem-
bers on Thurday last, the council of the Chamber of Com-
merce of Batley, in the West Riding of Yorkshire, state
their opinion that the question of whether the Frenoh Go-
vernment shall fix the import duties on woollens on the ad
valorem or on the specific principle is one of vital im_port-
ance to the woollen manufacturers of that district, and that
every effort should be used to secure the assessment of the
duties on the ad valorem principle. They declare that a
specific duty will virtually exclude the woollens of the dis-
trict which the chamber represents.

The Common Sergeant, in passing sentence, said it was
a most aggravated case of robbing. The prisoner had not
only been the cause of others being suspected of dishonesty,
but he (the learned Judge) had been informed that he
had contrived to introduce his wife into the service
of Col. Somerset as a single woman, and had induced her,
no doubt, from other circumstances that had come to his
knowledge, also to commit robbery. The prisoner was
then sentenced to six years' penal servitude.
After another short trial had been disposed of,
Mr. Ribton said—lt would perhaps be more respectful
to the Court if I explained, that it was of the prosecution
that I so loudly complained, and not of the course taken by
your lordship. I think it respectful to inform your lordship
that it is my intention to refer the matter to the Secretary
of State for the Home Department, as the man was vir-
tually undefended.
The Common Sergeant--You cm do whatever you please.

MERCHANT SEAMEN'S FUND.—The annual ac-
count of this fund has been made up. It shows that in
1859 pensions amounting to £4,643 fell in, and new pen-
sions to the amount of £3,922 were granted. The pen-
sioners now upon the fund are 21,406 in number, and the
annual amount of their pensions is £.>58,631. Of the pen-
sioners, 5,696 have been masters or seamen, 10,843 are
widows, and 4,867 children.
