A NOVEL Qu1D PRo QUo.-Some few days us,
ago a young lady, accom- panied by her broth a..
er, whist riding IN an OMNIBUS from she oity' fin
to the West end, was struck with the appear
| ance of one of her fellow passengers, who =
! besides being dressed in the height OF fash =
ion, wore a magnificent diamond ring, a cir.
! cum stance which not unnaturally attracted
the attention of the lady On arriving at G.
their journeys end the sister was very anz- "a
ious to know from her brother whether ne u
had noticed the pseudo gentleman with the n
magnificent ring. The circumstance how =
ever, had escaped the brother's observation.
n the course of the afternoon the lady, hav-
ing occasion for her purse, which contained
in the morning ELS, discovered, alas that i.
it was gone, but in lieu thereof, the Identical :
diamond ring, worth sixty guineas, was left
in it's stead. There is nc. doubt that the dla-
mond ring was the result Of some previous
robbery. but being too large for the thiets
finger, it slipped off while abstracting the
purse from the lady's pocket.

states that 'tin plates are fiat, lead heavy,
iron dull, rakes not much inquired after,

tionary. There is no life in dead hogs, but
considerable animation in old cheese"
