JUVINILE BURGLARY.

Thomas Houlston, 'harks Mooney, and Thomas
Aspinall, were indicted for burglariously breaking and
entering the dwelling house of Edmund Bardsley, at
Crompton, in this county, and stealing therein eleven
sovereigns and a half, e 101. Bank note, a 251. pro-
missory note, and other monies, his property, on the
3d of January last.
The evidence in this case was very long, and-showed
a predetermination on the part of the three prisoners
and another lad, to rob the premises of the prosecutor.
They lived within 20 yards of each other, and on the
night stated in the indictment the whole of the family
being from home, actually took a stone window sill out,
and then the whole window, and effected the robbery.
A girl who knew them, saw two of them in the act
of doing so; hut the clearest evidence was the mark of
a bare foot, and a clog which the prosecutor knew to'
be those of two of the prisoner;.
In wishing to criminate each other, before they were
taken before a Magistrate, they one and all confirmed
their own guilt.
The Jury found them all Guilty, and sentence of Death
was recorded against them.
Edward Howard was found guilty of a most daring,
burglary at the house nt Hobert Constandine, at Mid-
dleton, on the 14th °flu/wary. The isrisontr, with five
or six others, some of thein with their faces blackened,
broke Into the house, and held the wife of the prose-
cutor for, nearly three hours, while they rifled the
house—the house was a lone one—thxy were first heard
by the dog barking—tire property they took was com-
paratively of trifling value.
Mr. Justice Ilise Lev, after a most feeling address to the
prisoner, passed upon him the awful sentence of Death.
The prisoner then declared that he never was in the
house.

George Able was charged with stealing a stack cloth, of the value
of 61. the property of Mr. Vorley, of Islington. It appeared that
a man named Vesey, a carrier and general dealer, went to tie pri-
soner on the evening of Wednesday, the sth instant, in consequence
of receiving a message from Lim that be bad a stack cloth to sell.
The prisoner showed him a stack cloth, and as they could not then
agree, told him to take it away in his cart, which he was about to
do, when a person exclaimed—" That is Mr. Volley's stack cloth,
and the prisoner has no right to sell it." He then declined having
any thing to do with the matter, and took his departure. The pri•
loner, upon being detected, fled his master's house, and never re-
turned. He received an excellent character from his present and
preceding employers.—He was fully committed.
