In the month of February last, a parcel, containing
a pearl necklace and a quantity of 'all able jewellery.
was sent by a respectable goldsmith in Edinburgh by
the mail to Glasgow, but never reached its destination.
The necklace was on Tuesday offered for sale by a wo-
man to the owner, who sent it and her to the Police
Office; and an officer having been immedia e:y
patched to Glasgow, the whole cf. the other articles
missing were recovered by him chive, and the person
supposed to be implicated in the abstraction of the par-
cel apprehended, and he admits having sent the pio•
perry to the woman here. Ti e val ie exceeds £5O.
The following anecdote, as an illustration i f the in-
creased importance which the most ordinary rumoer
acquires as it passes from mouth to month, is given is
a French Paper :—" There is (says the rein• r) at Bogcts
a street called the Rue Royale, the residence of the
principal merchants and shopkeei ers, which is thronged
with idlers during the day. Don Jorge Lozano, a man
of great merit. but of a lively imaginati so. soach did
not quit him even upon the scaffold, to ss h.ch I.e was
dragged, used to amuse himself by putting in mace
the goires »touches of the Rue Royale He used to relate
news at one end of the street, and, in half an hour after-
wards, go to the other end to hear it uith all the
variations with which it had been adorned dosing its
passage. lie bad the impudence to continue his trick
at a time when political affairs became perplexing, and
he was the fist to suffer from it ; one day, when be hail
in this manner been commonica ing an ordinary r -
moor, the general inquietude to a:teied it as it ran
through the street, that when he heard it repeated at e.e
ot',er end he did not know it, as d became so alarmed
that he returned to his house, and made preparations
for S, ing from Bogota wit's his property.
A point of vase importance has lately been decided
at Bruesels—namely, whether a person cm be arrested
abroad upon a bill of etchange given in England, by
the bill being transferred to some person te i.ling in the
same realm as the acceptor or indorse: ? The fact, of
the case, by which it will be best explained, are riese-
-11 hen in England, a Mr. Flower accepts' a bill for the
accommodation of another. From this t erson a NI.
Fisher, an attuiney, is Walbrook-ssuildings, receives
the bill, and endorses it to Messrs. Collide and Co.
the bankers, who endorse it again to a Clegg. of
Antwerp, requesting that lie would pass the bill to his
Belgian banker, in order to enable an arre•t. The bill
became due and payable here, previous to worth the
Belgian bankeis sends it back again, so as in due lion
to be presented and protested. The bill in that state is
returned to Brussels, and Mr. Fowler attested upon it.
Against this arrest Mr. Fowler (after having been caret-
,
ruled in the Cour de Prfutiere Instance) appealed to the
Superior Court. The grounds of appeal, and Or ques-
tions discussed by the Court, were J. %lel er a
Court, which has no power to subpoena witnesses from
another ceuntry,tu mire or disprove the equities of tt e
bill, could be qualified to give judgment upon it? 2.
sA'hether the law, which authorises the provisional ar-
rest of foreigner., embraced the c•se of a debt con-
tracted between foreigners in a foreign country; tx
whether it was not merely intended to give n hives a
summary recourse against foreigners who had incurred
debts with them on the spot ? Or, S. Whether, after
all, the mere allegation of a native, that lie was tie
holder of a foreign engagement bona fide, was 6°s'
tient ground for arrest?' Upon all these grounds, the
Superior Court decided against the power of arrest—
a decision which will settle a point of some conseqacove,
not only to commercial men, but Many Mitts.
