VALUE OF SMOKE. A striking instance
Of economical taleNt,says the British Quarter

trict Of Aston Moor From the smelling
earlbs Of one house" an arched tunnel con-
duets the smoke to an outlet at Il distance
from the works, in Il waste spot where no one
can complain OF it. Tie gathering mat
ter or" lume" resulting from the passage OF
the smoke, is annually submitted to process
by which at that time, it yielded enough to
pay for the construction of the chimney. A
similar tunnel chimney, miles in length,
was erecting at Allandale. Its tumc will yield
thousands OF pounds sterling per annum. In
this case smoke does not end in smoke.

Judge Ward presiding, the first business that
came up WAS motion by Mr.. Parker, Co.
Attorney, that Albert j. 10YeN be broughtin-
to Court and sentenced on the indictnenttOr
adu!tcyY. This indictment originally contain
ed five counts, to two ofwhich, Trrell plead
guilty at the time Of his arraignment; the
remaining three were a0He prossd by Mir.
Parker. The bail on the two counts was fixed
at $500
At2 o'clocl, Timclls counsel made an
Intellectual attempt to retract the plea Dignity,
and have Il trial. This the Court oyerruIed,
that plea having been made by advice OF
counsel and the reasons given for lctracting
it, not being deemed sufficient. An effort was
then made to obtain mitigated sentence; and
after argument on both sides, Mr. Parker con-
scented that the two counts to which the prls-
onor had plead guilty, should be merged into
one, charging Ias.ivious cohabitation with
Maria Biclltord. On this form OF the indict-
ment Judge Ward, after some appropriate
remarks sentenced Trrcll to one dug solitary
