been illegally cut on • inclosed grounds. In a shoe
time a body of men advanced to the house of Mc.
Musgrave's wood-ranger, which they began

At half-past eleven this morning, the grasshopper,
which, for a vast number of years, had occupied a
exalted situation, and performed the duties of a
weathercock, on the top of the late spire at the Royal
Exchange, was, in the presence of a great multitude
of Gentlemen, remounted and placed on the new
dome, amidst loud shouts of approbation. lt is of
copper gilt, nine feet three inches in length from the
tail to the extremity of the horns, and weigh*
upwards of one hundred and a half.
flow-Srassr.—Yesterday, Spik&led, a little
twelve years old, was brought before Sir Rograr Baal
with steling twenty sovereigns from his school ma
pearedihy the evi.'ence of Mr. &enson, who keeps
in the vicinity of the Haymarket, that this boy was
take his dinner in the school-room, in consequence o'
living a scme distance, and that he availed himself (
tuniti: s tht:s AlOrded him to open the master's desk,
out a pc-whet-hook containing the twenty sovereigns
rty ese.s introediately missed; but the extreme your'
sutler prevented any suspicion from attaching to hi.
days after, when some of the other boys told the
young Spikeley had a great deal of money in his p
cometrecce of this information he was taxed with .
but he stoutly denied all knowledge of it till a constable•
for, and to him he confessed that he had stolen, the pc,
and having taken out two or three of the sovereigi.
the others for five sEilings, to a lad he did not know .
It was also proved by other witnesses, that he had
with a sovereign or two, and a quantity of silver,
the robbery.
Sir Itoarter Parca observed, that there was no lb
cormuitted the tae; t, and had moreover told an untruth
ing the disposal of the property; but still it would be
to commit st:ch a child for a capital felony; and '
mended that punishment should be administered l
his fatbet ; or, it' this was not thought sufficient,
detained in prison a week or two.
In reply to this, the father and mother, who
sent, assured the Magistrate that no such punishment
have the slightest effect upon him. It had, they said,'
repeatedly to no purpose ; for, young as he was, he ha
ral years been iu the constant habit of purloining
which came in his way, and had thereby conside:a
them. They, therefore, prayed the Ma-istrate th
commit him for trial, in order that he might afterwards
to the Penitentiary !
The distressing statement given by the parects
rohorated by the constable, who said he had been
sent fot to him, in consequence of his having co
beries, not only %trill his parents, bin upon other,
Ile was accordingly fully committed to Newgate,
trial for the capital felooy.
