Yesterday .1. George was fully committed, from
Hatton-garden Office, charged with hustling F. De- i
bourg, a foreign sailor, near the Clown, at Islington;
and robbing kim of his watch. .
Saturday A. fit), was fully committed to Exeter I
gaol, on a charge of sacrilege. He broke into stone-
house chapel on Sunday se'nnight, and stele thereout•:.
upwards of 70 prayer-Woks. He is an old offender,
and lost one of his legs a few years ago, in a man-trap.
Monmouth Wool Fair was held on Wednesday Nit.
The quantity of wool brought for sale was unusually
swill, many flocks of sheep not having yet been shorn.
in consequence of the late rains. Fine wools soldfmm
40s. to 1.55. per stone ; and, we understand, in a soli-
tary instance, 465. was giver;—being an advance of
nearly 4s. upon last year's prices. Coarse stools also
experienced a rise in price, selling from 365. to 40s.
but the demand was not so great as for the finer qua-
lities, and much of the inferior sorts remained unsold.
