CANTERBUitri itnr 20,

Le received from the prisow ia pledge, and which
Bryant proved tr. have been one of those taken from
him at the robbery.
Charlotte Temple deposed, that the prisoner lodged '
at her house ; and that the box and trunk found in
her house, and searched by Humphries, belonged to
the-prisoner.
George Bernant, a Life Guardsman, spoke to the
same purport.
Mr. Bryant then identified the property found in the
prisoner's pockets and trunk, as that which had been
stolen from his iron chest on the night of the Bth of
May. Several persons with whom the prisoner lived
gave him a good character.
The prisoner in his defence said, the whole pro-
perty was given to him at a public-house, in Mary.
la-bonne, by another servant, who had formerly lived
with Mr. Bryant.
The facts were, however, so clearly proved, that
the Jury, after a very able charge from the Recorder,
returned a verdict of guilty—Death.
The prosecutor, in consequence of the injury he re.
ceived by the fall of the card ta'ale, could not Walk,
and was lifted in and out of Court.

The prisoner was a young man about twenty
years of age, and of decent appearance.
The following were also capitally convicted, viz.
A. Hinton, for stealing two £1 bank notes and a slim
the property of Peter Egin, in his dwelling-house ;
Bridget Kelly, for stealing two pieces of printed cotton,
the property of J. Popjoy, in his dwelling-house ; R.
Evans, for returning from transportation ; and W.
Harrison, for stealing in the dwellirg-house of R.
Bagster a quantity of stair carpeting.
Elinor Swinney was next tried on a capital indict-
ment, for stealing eighteen yards and a half of cotton,
privately, in the shop of Mr. Wilson, a linen-draper,
in Gray's Inn-lane.—Guilty of stealing, but not pri-
vately.
The following were convicted of felony ; viz. T.
Marquis:, for stealing a great coat ; IV. Augur, for
stealing a bridle; Al Maggire, for stealing a watch;
and .1. Nicholls, for stealing a hat.
The following were acquitted ; J. Brown, C. Du-
val, R. Hawkins, and E. Wilson.

A girl, about 12 years old, having coveted a watch
which belonged to a carter in Dundee, a near neigh-
bour of her father, she, by the assistance of a key,
entered the carter's house, and had got possession of
the object of her wishes ; when, hearing a footstep on
the stair, and conscious of the crime she was com-
mitting, she ran to the fire-place, and ascended the
chimney. The hue-and-cry was instantly raised, and
the thief was discovered sitting on the top of the
chimney, at least 50 feet from the ground. A crowd
of people assembled in the street, and eyed with hor-
ror her perilous situation. A constable, who was em-
ployed to take the thief, having thrust his bead and
shoulders out of a sky-light, the girl's terror became
extreme ; and, scrambling down the outside of the
chimney, she ran along the roof of the house to the
♦ery edge of the eves-drop. Some humane people
prepared blankets to receive her, in case she should
fall ; but the girl continued, however, to run on the
roof ; and was at last taken, by the united efforts of
a messenger, a town officer, and a slater.

ICONSIDER it but an act of justice due to the
A merits of your LEAKE's PATENT PILLS, to communicate
to you the following Cure, which has recently been ps Homed by
them. An acquaintance of ntine,who by. the breaking out of 411
old Venereal Complaint eased by a complication of disards rs
er:Sine therefrom) was redand almost to a skeleton, aed
he had the best meefleal advice which could be obtained, at al triad
a variety of patent medicines, nothing could be procur&l which
seemed to suit his case, or do him any service ; be remained in a
most reduced aril •iitiabie situation for two years, unable to fal-
low Isis profesSion, and scarcely able to walk or even to stand on
Ids legs ; in fact, no one who knew him ever supposed it possible
for him to recover. He was ativlsed at last to try your Leake's
Pills—he did so, adhering strictly to the directions given with
them—he had not taken more than two boxes, before he found
lan alteration for the better—this encouraged him to proceed and
by taking a few boxes more he found his appetite and strength
gradually return; and is now as healthy and stout as any man,
know. You •are welcome, Sir, to refer any person to me for a
confirmation of the above account, if it should be doubted.. I ant
