UNION-HALL.

Ann Waters and Jane Roberts were charged before
Mr. Cottingham with stealing a diamond pin from Au-
gustus Palfroi, a foreigner.
The complainant, who spoke English imperfectly,
stated that on Tuesday he arrived from Ilatnburgh, and
the same evening, as he was walking along Fleet-street,
he was accosted by the two prisoners. They spoke of
being in his country, and made themselves so agreeable
that he was at length induced to accompany them over
the bridge to a house near a theatre. At the time he
entered the house he had a valuable diamond pin in his
neck handkerchief; which was admired by the prisoners,
who desired him to be careful of it, or he would
lose it. One of the prisoners (Roberts) then pretended
to fondle with him, and for that purpose clasped her
hands round his neck. Immediately afterwards he
missed his diamond pin, and accused the woman of
taking it. She, however, denied it, and on his threaten-
ing to call the police both the prisoners threatened him
with their vengeance ; but he gave an alarm, a police-
man entered, but the diamond pin wa;: not found, they
having had ample opportunity of getting rid ot it.
Mr. COTTINGHAM said that it was i very audacious
robbery on a foreigner, and that he should remand the
prisoners, in order that the case might be completed
against them.

SINGULAR COAIDAT.—Last week a hawk was ob-
served, on an inland lake, on the confines of Strothglass, ,
to make a dart at one of a brood of wild ducks. The
hawk missed his intended victim, and was instantly as-
sailed by the old duck, which flew, tartar like, from some
weeds in the neighbourhood, and in her devotion to pro-
tect her offspring, the fond parent nearly suffered mar- ,
tyrdom. The savage bird instantly sezed and was about '
to land her, when a heron in the vicinity uttered one of
those screams of terror for which it is peculiar when in
danger. Curiously enough, the hawk forsook his pros-
trate victim, and attacked the heron, and although the
duck rallied and courageously came to her assistance,
the relentless assailant exacted from the poor heron the
satisfaction of death, and retired with a peculiar air of
triumph, not even deigning tO scalp its fallen enemy.—
