and if you had been locked up in ono of their solitary
cells as I have been, without seeing any person but the
one who brought you the scanty pittance afforded, you
would not have a friend to assist you. By your verdict— \
(Here the prisoner began to sob, and paused to cee what
effect her eloquence had on the jury)—l may ba sent
back to those solitary and dismal cells, there, perhaps,
to remain during the whole inclement season of the
winter, where the silence that reigns, and the tears that
fall, are enough to melt the very flags on which one
stands. Perhaps, Gentlemen, some of you may be brought
to that. You may be overtaken by misfortune, and
yielding to temptation, perhaps to drink, the greatest
temptation of all, you may not be able to pay the fine
imposed upon yeu, and you may be dragged to gaol. It
is strange, more than passing strange, to think that the
just laws of the land should be so much strained. The
witnesses against me are not infallible, and by the laws
of God and man I demand a favourable erdict.
This really clever speech having been concluded,
Lord Chief Justice TINDAL summed up the evidence,
observing that he did not know that the prisoner had
any occasion to regret that she had not the assistance
of any other person, as she had shown a great deal of
dexterity in conducting her own case. There were only
two questions for the jury to decide—first, whether they
were satisfied as to the identity of the property; and
next, whether they were equally satisfied with the evi-
dence as to the identity of the prisoner.
The jury turned round for a second or two, and found
the prisoner Guilty.
Lord Chief Justice TINDAL said that the prisoner had
been found guilty of the offence with which she had been
charged, upon evidence which left no doubt whatever
on his mind that she bad stolen the candlestick ; and the
sentence of the Court, therefore, was, that she should
be imprisoned and kept to hard labour for twelve calendar
months.

The sensation caused by this unrivalled proiuction is beyond all
former viecedent ; the artist, the amateur, the casual observer
are all struck with its extraordinay beauty and fidelity of delinea-
tion,...ot re unanimous in pronouncing it the most wouderfid ex-
hibition ever witnessed. To view it only as a vehicle for the terrific
dispiay at Husk is unjust ; it should be seen in the calm stillness of
the quiet Evening, with its Towers and Steeples reflected in the spa..
cious Lake, to be fully appreciated.
The Evening PROMENADE CONCERTS on Mon!ays, Tues-
days, Wednesdays, and Thursdays cons.ucted uy Mr. Godfrey.

doing justice to the awful representation of

that L'outliby, :he Unrivalled Pyrotechnist has achieved& matchless

UNPARALLELED EXHIBITION EACH DAY OF THIS WEEK

The party of Fourteen 10 WAY INDIANS, with their Interpreter,
from the Upper Missouri, near the Rocky Mountains, in America,
'baying arrived in London, are giving their NATIVE DANCES,
'Songs, Games, &c., in CATLIN'S INDIAN COLLECTION, Egyptian
Hall, Piccadilly. Their -modes and their history fully explained by
Mr. Catlin. from the platform. This is the party which has been
drawing such vast crowds to see them while in New York, and they
are accompanied by the head Chiefof the Tribe," The White Cloud."
The party consists of every grade of Chiefs, Medicine Men, Warriors,
Women, and Children, in splendid costumes, the youngest of which
is only six months old, and 'iarried upon its inother's back in the
'cradle. The public will easily decide that these are by far the
:wildest and best representations of the Red Men of America ever
seen hi England ; and their stay In London at present must be limited
to a very short time, as they are on their way to the Continent.
