Yesterday a young lad named Barris, was placed at the bar ni
a charge of entering the house of a person named Hoban, aid
stealing therefrom a Dutch clock.
The complainant excited much laughter in the office. mimes
the drawling manner in which be gave his evidence. Please yet

ing my street dour double lucked, and when I returned I Mead k
open, which was not the way I left it. So I was afraid to vets=
in by myself, upon which 1 called the watchman, and we goes
boldly together. I goes along my passage, and the first thing I
saw was that my Dutch clock had been yolked uff. w hich I did
not like ; there was somethink else taken out of the first Boor, bat
1 don't, correctly speaking, know as yet what it is; so womb'
that the prisoner was consarned in the same, I looked Attalla
two whole days and two nights; I at totigth found him out, sad

denied, which I told bins if he would confess it would be ' •
better for bim ; and so your Worship, he ups and tells me n
be pawned th-e clock, which I went and seed, and here it n
is all which I have got to say, y..ur Wor.bip.
Mr. Cumulus—You have already said too much. By your
own accountsit appears that you have induced the prisoner to make
a confession of his guilt by a promise of not proceeding against him;
and be no sooner lets you into .he whole secret of the robbery th.a
you nun round upon him. You have got back your Dutch cluck,
and you ought to consider yourself lucky. In future, should your
house be broken into, added the Magistrate, and you should suc-
ceed in discovering the thieves, don't extort confeuions from them,
otherwise your charge falls to the ground. Give bins up his cluck,
said the .Magistrate; the prisoner must be discharged In conse-
quence of this man's folly and nonsense.
The complainant left the office quite chap.fallen, with the Muck
under his arm.
