BOCHSA had been led into speculations by some
artful men, who left him to bear the brunt of
total failure, which not being able to encounter.
he came to Englatittlast.year 5- ant if this Trial
lias really taken .place his associates in the Onsoc•
cesstul enterprize may haVe taken every advantage.
of his absence to criminate him alone. We give
this as we heard it, without vouching for the au'
thenricity of either suppositions, but we sincerely
trust that this distinguished Composer and Per-
former is not in such a dilemma as represented.
We understand that his conduct, since his resi-
dence in this conutry, has been exemplary, anti
that be is now in Scotland, on his way to-Ire--
