kry, six silver spoons, two waistcoats, one umbrella, two pair of
pantaloons, one pair of boots, one brass box, and various other
articles, in the dwelling-house of Robert Hill, in the parish of
Tyntmouth. The prisoner was a small, intelligent-looking man,
rather shabbily dressed. He seemed much affected by the cir-
cunt.tances in which ke was placed, and had evidently a struggle
to maintain his firmness.
On being arraigned, the prlsonet pleaded Gailty.
Mr. Baron Huccoex—Prisaner, I suppose you are aware of the
consequences of pleading guilty. ' •
Prisoner—l am fully aware, my Lord. •
Hr. Baron klukLeoc—Let sentence of death be recorded against
the prisoner.

stead l) fixed upon the ceiling.

his conektion, his first wife was put to the bar, indicted for the
same crime, and found guilt, ; but she was sentenced only to six
mon ills' imprP.onment, by Mr. Baron Huta-vac, as she had
perhaps been influenced by the conduct of her husband, who set
her the first bad example.
QUAKTER.—This term so well kown in war-
fare had its origin its n agreement between the Dutch
and Spaniaras, that tiCe pansorn of an officer or soldier,
should be the quarter of iiis year's pay. Ii nee to beg
quarter was to offer a quarter of their pay fur personal
-a`cty, anti to refuse quarter was not to accept the
ollrtcJ taint:an.
