OLD BAILbY.

Yesterday the Sessions commenced before Mr.
Justice PARK and Mr. Justice ABBOTT.

James Alder, Mary Alder, and Sarah Wilson,
were capit 411 y indicted for stealing in the drel•
ling-honse of James Kent, 6 watches, and one
dozen and a half of silver ten-spoons, and other
articles, contained in a desk, his property.
The Prosecutor stated, that he lived in the p?...
fish of St. Ann, Westminster, and on the 13th of
December he went train home, and on his return
discovered that the property mentioned had been
stolen.

Sarah Dobson deposed, that she knew all the
three prisoners, ar►d that on the evening of the
10th of December they came to her lodgings with
a desk, containing the articles specified. Having
dividtd it among themselves, she was employed to
burn the desli, and receive 2s. as a compensAtion
fur t►er trouble.

Some other witnesses were examined, who iden-
tified the property, and the prisoners were all
found Guilty.
Several other prisoners were tried, but none of
any particular interest.

The Calendar of this Session, though heavy in
point of numbers, does not (with the exception
of forgery) present any very serious offences.
There are 37 cases at the London side, and 167
at the Middlesex side. Of these 15 are for for-
geries, 13 for stealing in dwelling-houses, and
120 for larcenies.

One day in company a shining Belle,
To chew bow far she could in wit excel,
Thus to a Gentleman was heard to say :
" If I mistake not, Sir, the other day
" Your hail was red, and now 'tis eliang'd to black,
" And does its flaming colonr wholly lack ?
" But I suppose," (then archly look 'd around)
" If we inspect it, dy'd it will be found."
44 'rue," said the Gent, 4' and when I saw you last,
" Your hair, rnethought, was of a greyish cast ;
" Besides, %was lank and thin, and cut I'd not then,
€• 'And now, but for your tongue,. I.scarce could kan
" In you, the self-same Lady, whotegrey hair
" Of late had nearly driven you to despair;
" But ritkithvoile fatted Fhtitf and his-Dye
" Have wnrk'd strange wonders. both in ,you and I."
The Gent in triumph laugh'sli the Lady, vounded,
Hung down her head abash'd, as otsc confounded.

The above tines are founded on fact; 'and the °Ticino, may
