Am ANECDOTE —lt is related in the Scottish
newspapers, that about the year 1770, a Selkirkshire farmer, It
great original in his way, and remarkable for his fondness of
a " big price" for every thing, attended at Langholm Fair,
and, notwithstanding his parsimonious habits, actually Held
.his lambs to a perfect stranger, upon his simply promising
to pay him punctually at the next market. On his return
home, the farmer's aervants, who rej,tulorly messed at the
same table, and seldom honoured biro with the name of
master, inquired, " Wed, Sandy, hoe ye sel't the lambs ?"
" Atweel hae I, and I gat saxpence mane aheadfor them than
onybody in the market.' —" And ll' wed paid tiller ?" " Na,
the Miler's no paid yet, but its sure eneuch." " Wha's your
merchant, and what's your security ?" " Troth I never spiered,
but he's a decent lookin' man wi, tap hoots, and u bottle-green
coat." The servants at this laughed outright, and tauntingly
told him he would never get a farthing. Sandy, 'however,
thought differently, and having accidently hurt his leg so as to
prevent hint from travelling, he sent a shepherd to banghorn,
with instructions to look for a man with a bottle-green coat,
whom he was sere, he said, to find standing near a certain sign:
The shepherd did he was bid, and, strange to say, disco-
vered a person standinp at the identical spot, who, on learn.
ing his errand,inquired kindly for hismaster, and paid the money
to the uttermost farthing. sandy who piqued himself on his skill
in physiognomy, heard the news without,emotion, and merely
said, " 1 wad at any time trust mair to looks than words,
and when I saw Colly smelling about bun sae kindly, I ken't
wed eneuch he couldna be a scoundrel." This result differs
from one which might have been expected. 'Sandy believed in
a " second sight," which, in these times, a knowledge of the
arts of life disqualify most persons from indulging on such an
occasion.

UNGRACIOUS PROS ECUTIGN.
Elizabeth Davis, :widow, aged 39, a woman of
respectable appearance, was indicted for stealiug
four silver spools and other articles, the property
of John Jeremy, her master. . .
John Jeremy stated, that he is a linen-draper in Thornhaugh-
street ; the prisoner has been eleven minutia in his employ—had
the highest opiaion of her, and reposed" the greatest confidence.
Witness spoke to her about some spoons on the 7th of March,
when she said she would find them presently—game duplicates
were given up by her. Witness had been in difllctilty, and was
confined in prison seven weeks, and every thing was left in her
care—she had to.account in respect to paying an receieiug
exactly as a wife—receive rents, &c.
By Mr. LAW—She had authority to deduct money for bee
wages.
The pawnbroker, who pr.oduced the property, said the pri-
soner pledged the property in the most open manner.
Mr. Sergeant A RADIX said, it was itnpossible to convict a
person under such circumstances, for there was nothing like
felony in it; for, while the prosecutor was in prison,. the pri-
soner was left in the care of the house, the child, and every
thing.
The Jury expressed their concurrence, and immetlietely
acquitted the prisoner.

HIGHWAY UOIIIIERT BY A FEMALE.
Catherine Clark alias Pitt, an amazonian cy.
Arian, watt indicted for assaulting Jane Stanley on the King's
highway, and stealing from her person a muff and tippet, and
He. 6d., her money and property.
Jane Stanley stated, that on the third of the present month,
the matter happened which forma the subject of the preeent
inquiry. .She was in St. John-street, Clerkenwell, on her way
to Britannia-street, City-road; she had previously rode in a
hackney-coach ; while paying the fare she dropped a shilling;
the prisoner was near at the time, and as witness thought, was
in company with two men ; the prisoner followed her to some
distance, and then knocked her down, and seized the muff and
tippet; witness cried out " Murder," and the watchman stop.
ped the prisoner, who had the stolen property in her possession.
The watchman end constable of the night confirmed the pro.
secutrix in sonic of her material statements.
The prisoner, in her defence, said that the prosecutrix, like
herself, was an unfortunate girl, and walked the City and
Strand. They were acquainted, and had been drinking liquor
together, and were very elevated with it---she never intended to
commit a felony.
The prosecutrix was re-called, and positively denied the truth
of the prisoner's assertions.
Mr. Sergeant AnAniw, in charging the Jury, said that the
prisoner had aggravaeed her offence by attempting to traduce
the character of the prosecutrix, who appeared to be a respect-
able young woman.
The Jury returned a verdict of Guilty--Death.
Mr. Sergeant ARABY)/ *aid, the prisoner had been tried for
murder six years ago, and had a narrow escape. She was then
charged with throwing a man from the window of a brothel In
Charles-meet, Drury-lane; it was a bad family, forler husband
had but lately returned from transportation.

BCI RGLARI
Joseph Long and John _Eden were indicted for
a burglary in the dwelling-house of John Proggitt, and stealing
therein divers articles of bedding and apparel, his property....
(There was another indictment against the 'prisoners for a
similar offence in the dwelling-house of John Pearce.)
The evidence against the prisoners was laconic, but conclusive,
as the prisoners were apprehended immediately after the robbery
with the stolen property in their possession, which was identi-
fied by the prosecutor.
The prisoners made the old lame defence, thatthey hail,
the bundles. Verdict—Guilty, Death.
Wm. Monteer was indicted for a burglary iu
the dwelling-house of John Banks, 'and stealing therein
divers articles of apparel and effects, his property, •
The wife of the prosecutor stated that she lived in Nelson.
street, Cock-lane, but whetherin Shoreditch or Bethnal Green
parish she did not know. On the 20th of January witness left
her home about seven o'clock, and returned about midnight ;
she locked her door, but when she returned she found it
wide open. No violence had been used, and her conviction
was, that the lock had been picked. On searching her prernises
she found a great quantity of apparel missing, which she now
specified; had no knowledge of the prisoner; has never seen
any of her property except a pillow-case.
J. Parish, an officer belonging to Bow-street, searched the
prisoner's lodgings, and found a pillow-case, which had since
been identified by the proseeutrix and the person who made it.
Drown, a Bow-street officer, stated that he apprehended' the
prisoner.

&vend witnesses Were examined by Mr. C. PHILLTPS, who
gave the prisoner a good character.
Mr. Boron (lanuow recapitulated the evidence, and the
Jurr returned a verdict of Not Guilty.
The prisoner was tried upon a second indictment and acquitted.
John Stlilittati was indicted for breaking find
entering the dwelling-house of Emanuel Elkin, and Stealing
therein a watch and divers other articles, value 20., his property.
Charlotte Dears deposed, that she knows the prosecutor and
his wife. On Wednesday the 15th of February, she went to
their house, about 7 in the evening, on a visit; Mrs. Elkin let
her in, and shut the door, to the best of her khoWledge
ness went into the kitchen, after which 11rs. Elkin went into
the back-parlour ; when in the kitchen witness had a command
of the view of the passage, and hearing a rustling she called to
Mrs. Elkin.
Elizabeth Elkin, the wife of the prosecutor, remembers the
evening when Mrs. Dears came to visit her; the front door
opens by a spring lock; witness fastened the door she believed
after she let her friend in ; her husband was at home at the
time.

Mr. Emanuel Elkin stated, that he has been in the army, and
now lives at Stepney. On the day of the burglary he had been'
out, and on his return he placed his silver watch and gold ap.
pendages, a gold finger ring, and other, articles, on the table
in the front parlour ; it was afterwards taken away.
J. Taylor, a boat-builder at Limehouse—On the 14th of
February witness was near the prosecutor's house about eight
in the evening, and heard a cry of " stop thief," andseeing
person running, witness gave hini a blow, and said " stop,"
but he passed on swiftly.
James Jeffrey, an Officer belonging to the. Thames Pouts,,
stated that he was in company with `Nilson, another Offieer,an
the 16th, and heard of the burglary; saw the prisoner in Shad-.
well Market, in company with another man ; witness laid hold
at' the prisoner, who said, " What do you want me for ?"
ness said, " You know what I want you for." Witness took.
him to a public house, and the prisoner said, " I'll give you
what I've got ; here's a watch ljbutuf last night ;" the watch
produced and owned by the prosecutor fa the same.
The other articles namedin the indictment were alsolotind
on his person, except the pencil-case, and four shillingtand
sixpence in had money.
Wilson, the other officer, said, that after the prisoner was
apprehended, he saw a person named Murray, in consequence 4
of the prisoner saying he slept with him. 'Witness 'titit them
together, without saying to Murray that a watch had been •
found on Sullivan ; Sullivan afterwards said he ibund tie
articles in Stepney.
The prisoner made no defence, but a witness. was called
speak to character.
Mr. Day, of White-street, Bishopsgate, stated he had known
the prisoner Intimately for seven years, and had employed him
—no. young man ever bore a better character than the prisonsxt
has maintained.
Mr. Justice PAIIK summed up the evidence, and observed,
that if the prisoner deserved the good character the Court hate
just heard, it was a lamentable thing to see lihn in that perilous
situation. The Learned Judge thought that the charge of
burglary might be abandoned; but supposing the prisoner had
been guilty of stealing in the dwelling house, the consequences
in law were the same.
The Jury returned a verdict of—Gisiliv, DeeM.

WeirAileh dislike the motion for giving to Mr.

" P 9, nothing ;" and all the Board of Trade

ligpalates. We rejoice In the confident expee.
tation that this horrible system will very
stoutly, by the strong baud of this power-
fslCGOvertmtent, be put an end to. An Eug-
gltrlli has sailed, we learn, to
enferhe the cesiation of this scene of terror. No
effectual opposition appears to be anticipated from
Turkey ; and in consequence, an immediate
orniatice is expected. The future Government
41Gieece is a conside'ratiion secondary, or at least
subsequent to that. of her release. But to a
Tyrkish protec,iiett, or 'even nominal superiority,
there will, we tro,st,'he no countenance afforded
by any enlightened and Christian State in Europe.
The. protectorate of more than one great So-
vereign, applied to the condition and politics of a
dependent, would be a species of partnership
vieg'nrint with future discord. If Greece is to have
a.priitectOr, let it, then, be a single protector. If it
he true, that' in his conferences with the Duke of
'',VireilingtOn the Emperor Nicholas has abjured
all designs upon the sovereignty or dependence of
41T, Gre•,,•4 nn,tions and has even declared his wil-
iingness to leave that. people under the sole pro-
leetion of Englatid, as Englishmen we might hesi-
tate to refuse the compliment ; but we do not
.feel eager to take. advantage of it--England has
ramified enough. If, however, his Imperial Ma-
jesty offers to abandon Greece, only twestablish
on that effort of moderation some claim to an
univalent on the part of Great. Britain, our
tilantiators, it is to 'be hoped, will guard them•
'larva against such seductions. Should, for ex-
ample', the Russian Emperor stipulate," Give rue
ti Turkey, if I give you Greece," the answer of
Mr. Canning is us plain as his duty to England
nigdto Eorope. If Aussie obtains Turkey with
the free will a England, she will add Greece
heteartel, sod in spite of England. The policy
of Catherine innq be watched and crushed, and
iii "Europe roused to co-operate with this coup.
try against an incorporation of another province
WWII the immense empire Of the Czars. If Wel-
'
sehta and Moldavia--the t•ountries enclosed be-
the Dniester and the Danube—are to be
wilited from tito'Furkisll yoke; the protectorate of

Russia would be a fearful substitute: but to such
an arrangement, the other States of Europe might
accede, if guarantees could be found against
Russia crossing the Danube. If, however, the
Emperor complains, us we have heard he' does,
that Turkey has touched the honour of Russia,
by violating in mini instances her treaties with
that power, and more specifically the treaty of
1812, this complicates the question which the
Duke of Wellington has to settle. When Eng-
land and France, and we believe other Powers,
combine to tell Russia " You must not attack
and appropriate the Turkish dominions," and
Russia answers," Where, then have I redress for
my wrongs ?" she imposes on those States an ob-
ligation which they are bound conscientiously to
fulfil towards Russia. The treaty of 1812 was
negociated, if we recollect rightly, by an Eng-
lish Minister, Sir Gore Ouseley, and set at
liberty, in a critical hour, the army which
afterwards moved upon the rear of Buonaparte.
But England is doubly bound to see the stipula-
tion of that treaty religiously maintained on be-
half of Russia, who now appeals to her. If the
King of England steps in to frustrate the views
of Russia upon the Porte, the only ground on
which his Majesty can pretend to defeat her ag-
grandizement, is the support of her rights where
they are encroached upon, and of her honour
where it is insulted. 'This duty England
owes to his Imperial Majesty ; and the ex-
' ercise of the power of interference to avert an at-
tack upon Turkey furnishes this Government with
the means, as well as entails upon it the duty, of in-
sisting on justice from Turkey to our Russian Ally.
If England commands the Porte to compensate Rus-
sia for bona fide injuries or insults, Turkey dares
not disobey. She will not brave the joint dis-
pleasure of her. moat formidable enemy, and her
most powerful protector. However, the reason-
ings of justice and sound policy may be cut short
in Russia by the sword, which has so Often been
unsheathed to shed the blood of Emperors, as
well as to gratify their ambition. The army and
people of Russia may push their Monarch w ith
no offensive or ungrateful violence to do that
which, as a grandson and disciple of Catherine,
he cannot in his heart disapprove ; and if so,
adieu to all chance of peace for any portion of
Europe.
