It was distinctly proved that the boys had stolen
the watch and sold it to the prisoner, who had been
previously convicted as a fence, for seven shillings and
sixpence. The prisoner told the unfortunate children,
whom he had evidently encourged to commit the rob-
bery, that the watch was only worth fourpence an
ounce, and if he had even paid them the whole of the
money he had promised he would have escaped prose-
cution, but he was detected while screwing them
about the last shilling.
The prisoner said he knew nothing at all of the
prisoners, and that he was merely giving them a little
charity—a shilling in charity—when he was appre-
hended.—Committed for trial.

FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF YESTERDAY.
TIMES.---Connected with railway affairs some ex-
traordinary facts have transpired relative to an under-
taking called the Clarence Railway, situated in Dur-
ham, which would lead to unpleasant inferences, con-
sidering they are only allowed to transpire through
an advertisement in the public prints, the press being
invariably excluded from the meetings of the share-
holders when they take place. According to this
advertisement, the Exchequer Loan Commissioners
have seized upon the railway and announced it for
public sale in the course of the ensuing month, unless
a proportion of the money borrowed from Govern-
ment, amounting with interest to about 155,0001.,
be repaid in the month of November. In their
emergency the Directors appeal to the public to
subscribe the amount on an issue of new scrip
shares or loan notes of 101. each, bearing interest at
the rate of 6 per cent. per annum, giving them the
preference over all other shareholders (no other divi-
dend to be paid before their claims are satisfied),
the statement being that the present revenue of the
Company shows a clear profit of 12,0001. per annum,
with " an undoubted prospect of a large increase," to
be made over to the subscribers as a guarantee for
the payment of the interest on the money to be
raised. It is also stated, that the shareholders will,
no doubt, take a considerable portion of the shares ;
but, as by "deaths and other casualties there will
inevitably be a certain number undisposed of," the
public are invited to come in and participate in the
profits which are hoped to be secured when the
traffic of the line is well developed. The conceal-
ment of the real state of the Company's affairs, ex-
cept what can be gathered from this advertisement,
which is by no means likely to impress the public
with an idea of success, is above all things sure to
create a suspicion of unsoundness at the core, and
hence it is, by the suppression of their proceedings.
they have just adopted the very plan to defeat their
own object in raising the money they require. How-
ever unfavourable for the while their aff2irs may he.
they could hardly be afraid of misrepresentation ; and
if not afraid of that, the public would at least ha% e
been in p :ssession, and enabled to judge for them-
selves, of the facts elicited in elucidation of the
awkward position in which the Company at present
stands with the Exchequer Lean Commissioners. As
the case now is, there is nothing but the mere de-
claration of the Directors in an advertisement that
they forthwith require capital to relieve the concern,
for which they offer a high rate of interest in per-
spective • but this is not a course by any means
calculated to attract- the monied interest when they
find•theriselves.destitute of facts or figures whereon

The model of this magnificent work of art has just
been completed. It is a bronze equestrian statue, in.
tended to be placed on the triumphal arch facing
Apsley House, subscribed for by the country at large,
and undertaken by Mr. M. Wyatt, whose energies
have been unceasingly devoted to its production dur-
ing a period little short of two years. The model
gives promisa of a result alike honourable to the art-
ist, Me country, and the man. It is of colossal di-
mensions, measuring in height from the horse's hoof
to the crown of the warrior's head, 28 feet 2 inches.
Some idea of its magnitude may be gained from the
fact that a Life Guardsman, armed cap-a pie, can ride
with ease under the belly of the animal. A new stu-
dio and pit for casting the- various portions have been
rented near the artist's residence, at Padding-
ton, and the completion of the work may
be confidently expected in the course of
the ensuing summer. The effect of the model
on entering the studio is grand. The happy moment
chosen by Mr. Wyatt is that in which the Duke is
supposed to he giving the memorable words—" Up,
Guards, and at them !' The horse is standing in a
quiescent attitude, but the distended nostrils and
eager gaze beautifully display the feeling of excite-
ment with which the animal may be supposed to have
been agitated amid the roar and din of battle. The
Duke is attired in a Field Marshal's uniform, with a
military cloak thrown over his shoulders; his face
slightly inclines to the left, while in his right hand he
holds the baton of command by which his directions
are made known. The head is already cast, and, if
the other portions be equally successful, the whole
will indeed be a triumph of art. The metal used is
chiefly, if not altogether, formed of guns captured by
our countrymen in various parts of the world, and
the weight of this latter (the head) alone exceeds
3001bs. The boots are also cast, and jointly weigh
5001bs. The whole statue, when completed, will ex-
ceed 40 tons in weights and the metal required for
the purpose of its production, owing to waste, &c,
will amount. to 50 tons.

STOFFAGE OF THE ROCHDALE CANAL,—The long
and unprecedented draught at this period of the year
has led to the stoppage of this canal, beginning at its
whole length between Manchester and Sowerby-
bridge. .The want of water led. the managers to stop
the short distance traffic on Monday last; but this did
not avail long, for onWednesday it became necessary to
close the whole navigation. Several yearsago the Com-
pany had some large additional reservoirs constructed,
for the purpose of providing against a drought; but
this has been of so unusually long an occurrence, and
especially in October—one of the wettest months of
that year—that all previous calculation has been set
at nought. The stoppage of this water conveyance at
this particular season is of some consequence to ex-
porters to the Baltic, as, in case of the frost setting in
earls•, there may be some difficulty in landing ships
at null, but for the facilities now afforded by the
Manchester and Leeds Railway Company.—Man-
chester Guardian.
