John Shea was charged with robbing Emma Thompson of ss.
A weighing' machine was placed in Phoenix-street, Somers.
town, as a decoy for the simple passengers. A crowd soon col.
lected, anxious to have themselves weighed, most of whom had
their pockets lightened in a very short time. The prisoner was
caught pickisig Miss Thompson's pocket, and it clearly appeared
that he was one of a gang of thieves who infest the neighbourhood.
The gentleman who presided over the weighing department de.
camped' as soon as the members of the lightening corps found their
vocation spoiled.
The prisoner was fully committed for trill.

THE Bisnor or ELT.—We deeply regret to be un-

in a hopeless condition, and it is feared that the slightest relapse
would .be attended with a fatal restlt. He suffers greatly from a
violent cough, and is not allowed to be left a moment day or night.
