LARCENY AND BUIeLARY.-Horace Wesley
took upon himself to enter the residence OF
one Joshua Toby without invite from the pro-
prietor. This in itself was certainly shabby,
and, to say the least, hasty exit with apollo
gies would have characterized the gentleman.
But this was not in Horaces line. He had a
purpose to accomplish, and though charge
Of larceny, together with that Of burglary,
is preferred against him, we ca not guarantee
that when he left he carried with him the
house or postage stamp. Let this be as it
may. For the time being his benign counte-
nance will not see the light of day, for last
evening, behind the prison bars of the Sew
enth Precinct Station, he coined in his mind
the situation.
That ELTHY LUcRE.-Andrew Abidee
from the sunny climes of France, did ply a
trade yesterday which is not legalized in the
Constitution Of this country. His stay in
this porti, Of the land Of the free will long
be remembered, and the $40 Of currency, Of
which F. Yearler's pockets were lghtened by
his skilful fingers, will no doubt to-day give
him little insight into the workings of the
Parish Prison.
WITH INTENT TO KILL.--H Solomon Atkins
likes assauling and battering as a pleasant
pasttime, he should try his hand upon some
other than Spencer Philips, for the latter is
not jokist and in consequence Solomon's
little game will yet cost him dear.
LARCENY. possession offour gold studs
is certainly sufficient nowadays to make
one blessed above men, Perhaps it was this
consideration which made Denny Evans dip
his hand in sin, and little thinking oft he con-
sequences he displayed to his entire satisfac-
ton the SIS pair, property Of D. Steizer. The
latter gentleman, however, to use a common
saying, ''could not see it, !" and the first oppor-
tunity that offered Denny, at Steizers instance,
was gobbled up by officer Tene and waltzed
into the Suburban.
OFFENSIVE RATHER This is certainly an
age Of elimination and denomination. Only
yesterday fair illustration was offered in the
case of Annie Schneider VI. Charles Book;
and though the gentler sex got the best Of the
bargain by causing the arrest Of Charles, We
would very much liked to have been within
hearing distance, and judge for ourselves
whether the lady was as submissive under the
insults, threats and abuses that we're heaped
upon Her, as tradition says she was.
LARCENY. Thompson appropriated
S6 Of filthy lucre yesterday morning, the prop
erty of one Robert Burns, to her own use.
For this insignificant otfense Judge Staes will
this morning lay down the law in way that
will be perfectly clear to the appropriating
Amelia.
