A slight recovery in pressure similar to that reported at Valencia
yesterday afternoon was noted at Nairn last night ; but since that
a fresh decrease has taken place at both stations, amounting at
Valencia to two-tenths of an inch since 6 p.m., and pressure is now
much lower than it was yesterday, and is decreasing generally. The
reading at Rochefort is 0.81 in. higher than that at Nairn, whilst the
report from Biarritz shews an additional difference of 0.42 in. be-
tween it and Rochefort. Temperature has decreased in the N. and
W., but ricen somewhat in the E. A further considerable rise is
noted at Biarritz, making in all 23 deg. in the past two days. The
south-westerly gales reported yesterday continue at our western sta-
tions. This morning the wind has freshened to a gale from R.W. at
Brest, and a serious storm appears to be coming on in the Channel.
Rain has been general in the W., with hail squalls at Valencia. The
sea iis high on the Irish coast. Warnings repeated to-day.

Prisoner—Thank you ;I am much obliged. I won't
repeat it again.

A HARD CASE. —ROBBING AN INVALID SEAMAN.—Phillip
Reeves, a runner and touter of doubtful character, wail
charged on remand with stealing a chest, kit, and other
property of a poor seaman, named Auguste Battle.
The prosecutor was invalided at sea, and put ash ore a
Gibraltar, where he remained under medical treatment for
some time, until he was in a fit state to be sent home. He
hired lodgings at a house, No. 1/, Well-street, Wellclose-
square, near the Sailors' Home, and took his chest and
things there. He was soon compelled to have recourse to
the Dreadnought Hospital ship, and in his absence every
article belonging to him was stolen. On leaving the
hospital he made inluiries, and found a chest, bed, pillow,
blanket, and sea-boots at a clothes shop, No. 72, Cable-
street, Whitechapel. These articles wore worth 40s only.
The remainder of his property is worth £9 more.

A very extraordinary case of libel was brought
on Monday in the Wakefield Police-court. The defendant
called himself a prophet of the "Christian Israelite Church,"
said ho was "Shiloh," a lawgiver and a judge. This he was
doubtless caused to do by a reference in the will of one
Herr Wroe, who also thought himself a prophet, and
got on in the world by so doing, getting enough to
build a mansion and to leave his son in comfortable
circumstances. In his will Prophet Wroe spoke of the Shiloh
who should come after him. The "Judge and lawgiver"
thought by calling himself by that name he should get the
mansion. lie was disappointed, however, and in revenge
published some very curious documents, which reflected on
the character of the solicitor engaged in the case. This
gentleman brought the charge, but the matter was ulti-
mately arranged.
