Drvtzes, SUNDAY NIGHT.—The public curiosity

an assault, which was to have been tried at our ap•
thing Sessions on Tuesday, is not likely to be

A Gentleman passing through Bath a few days
since, haring a most valuable gold repeater in his pos-
ession, with the name of Lautier, of Bath, engraved on
it as the maker, took the opportunity of calling on him,
to express to him his high approbation of-it. Mr.
Lautirr looked at it, and examined his books, when be
discovered it was a gold repeater he had sent by coach
la a parcel, to a Gentleman in London, several years
ago, but which had never reached its destination. He
Sueitioned the Gentleman as to the manner in which he
'ante possessed of it, when the latter stated, that he was
Captain of a transport vessel; that when conveying
convicts to New South %Vales, the watch he then had
feaillt out of order, and that, one of the convicts, hear-
'‘g bf the ci:cumstance, offered him this repeater, for
rich he gave 45 guineas. The Gentleman gave very
tttisigto:y references, and left no doubt in the mind of
Lautier as to the truth of his statement.
