having turned his back, prisoner seized the document, put
it into his breast, and ran off with it. This was seen by
another witness. Prisoner was afterwards apprehended

The statute referring to the stealing of deeds, or other

there is not one, in .our opinion, approaches by .._ .
fection as Wilson's Life Preserving Coats. The principle
is simple and excellent. A portion of the lining of the
coat or jacket, which is of an air-proof fabric, is double,
and may be inflated at will by means of a small pipe
contained in an inner breast-pocket, to a buoyancy suffi-
cient to float two or three persons. We give our opinion
more decidedly in favour of this principle in consequence
of its connexion with, and forming a portion of, the
usually-indispensible dress; and is consequently unlike
most other inventions—at home, when required. Mr.
Wilson, the inventor, who has visited some of our sea-
ports, will not, we hope, omit Liverpool. The coming
visit of the Prince would be a favourable opportunity of
