judge discharged them on entering into their own recog-
nizances to keep the peace for two years.—Seventeen per-
sons were convicted of sedition at Hyde, and the judge,
on Friday, passed sentence on them as follows :—Sellers
to two years' imprisonment. Hindle, Armitage, Isaac
Cheetharn, Collier, Markland, and Isaiah Cheetham, each
to 18 months' imprisonment, and at the end of that period
to enter into recognizances for one year, themselves in
£5O. and two sureties in £2O each. Brown, Schofield,
Shawcross, Mattocks, and Wilde, one year's imprisonment,
and at the end of that year to enter into recognizances for
one year, themselves in £4O, and two sureties in £lO
each. Hall and Shaw to be imprisoned for nine months;
and Shore to be imprisoned. with hard labour, for two
years in the house of correction.—[This prisoner had been
imnrisoned for felony.]
EMBEZZLEMENT.—On Wednesday, at the Boron. h
Court, Manchester, a young man named George
Mortimer, lately lately employed as cashier by Mr. Alexander
Glendinning, proprietor of the Seedley Printing Works
at Pendleton, near Manchester, was ccmmitted on a
charge of embezzling a sum of upwards of £7OO, the
property of his employer. The prisoner had been em-
ployed by Mr. Glendinning for a period of nearly three
years. That gentleman resides in the south of England,
and is in the habit of coming to Manchester two or three

times in the course of the year. In October last he ar-
rived in Manchester, and called upon the prisoner to see
his cash accounts. Mortimer told Mr. Glendinning that,
in const quence of illness, his accounts were not prepared
for inspection. Mr. Glendinning then directed the pri-
soner to have the accounts ready on the following Thurs-
day morning. On that day Mr. Glendinning called at
his counting-house, but found the prisoner was not there.
Mr. Glendinning remained in his counting-
house until
the evening, but the prisoner did not make his appear-
ance. This aroused Mr. Glendinning's suspicions, when
he sent to his hankers, and their accounts convinced him

made for Mortimer, and he was found in a sta•e of ine-
briety, and placed under the surveillance of a police-
constable until he became sober. After a tlw days all
restraint was removed, upon an undertaking given by the
prisoner's brother, that he would make up his accounts,
which he did, and it was then discovered that he was de-
ficient ir► his cash account £450, and deficient in a suns
of £250 on account of rents.

POLITICAL MISCELLANY.

WEST RIDING ELECTION.—On Wednesday, Sir C.
Eardley was seized with an attack of illness•, and was pro-
hibited by his medical men from attending any more

luestioned at a meeting at KeighWy:—" Mr
Hatton : Will you vote for a bill making ail the land

ingdom national property. but allowing the holders
compensation for improvement ? Sir C. Eardley could not
vote for that. He would not be a party to taking away
any man's property." Mr. Denison's canvass• returns
are most cheering. It is stated that in the polliog dis-
tricts of Snaith, Aberford, Ponifret, and Wakefield—
situated in different parts of the riding—the 'proportion
of promises given to Denison, compared with those for
Eardley, are as 4,00'J to 1100. In populous districts,
which used to constitute the strongholds of the Liberal
s candidate, the returns are said to be equally satisfactory.
