SURREY SESSIONS.

H. Young was indicted for stealing, on the 18th of April, a
scarf, a pair of sheets, and other things, the propeky of John
Newbery, of Croydon.
The proof was very defective, the Jury immediately ac-
quitted her.
The prisoner was again indicted for stealing a shawl, the
ploperty of the same prosecutor, on April 15.
On being taken into custody, she denied having pawned the
shawl ; but on being taken to Mr. Messenger's shop in Croy-
don, she was identified as the person who pledged the shawl,
which was identified by Mr. Newbery.
The prisoner said she had pawned the shawl, but was pre-
pared to redeem it in the evening. She had lost the ticket,
which caused some delay, and in the meantime she was taken
into custody.
She was sentenced to three months, imprisonment in the
House of Correction.

Abraham Newton was indicted for stealing, at Lambeth, on
the 21st April, a Dutch clock and a bird cage, the property
of Harriet Winter.
The prisoner lodged for a week in the house of prosecu-
trix, and on the day in question took advantage of her absence,
and took away the things named in the indictment. On the
same day he sold the bird and cage, and offered the clock, but
it was refused.

The prisoner said he went home very drunk on Easter
Monday, and when he was being taken to Queen-square, he
did not know that there was any other charge against him
than for being drunk. Verdict—Guilty.
The CHAIRMAN said the prisoner had been convicted before ;
that, however, he could not enquire into now, or he would have
been transported for life. The sentence of the Court was,
that he be transported for seven years.

SURREY ZOOLOGICAL GARDENS.—Jacobo, the
adventurous monkey, who went up in Green's balloon from
the Surrey Zoological Gardens on Monday, after seeing the
world in a very exalted station, descended in his parachute
with great velocity, and fell in a garden belonging to a police-
man in East-lane, Walworth. A label, affixed to the falling
aeronaut, promised a reward of 21. and a free admission to
the Zoological Gardens for the present season to any one who
might find Jacobo, and convey him back to his numerous
family. The monkey, who is now dignified by the title of
his _Highness, was restored in a sound state ; but it appearll
that he suffered much in his transit. The balloon fell at
Brentwood, in Essex.
Mr. Briusley Sheridan is on the Civil List for a
pension of 57/. per annum, which was granted to all the chil-
dren of the late Mr. Thomas Sheridan in 1818. Lord Sey-
mour resigned his Lady's pension on his marriage with Miss
Jane Sheridan in 1830. Mr. Sheridan's mother was the
daughter of Sir James Campbell, Bart., of Areiinglas, by his
third wife, Lady Elizabeth Macdonnell, si.ter to the Earl of
