One of the last things taken to tire Crystal Palace was a relic of the heroine of the Earn Islands—a beautifully and legibly written letter , in which she modestly consents to accept ( but expresses herself as much too liberally rewarded already ) a chaplet of oak leaves and acorns , a beautiful garland of wild flowers , and a girdle of variegated colours , proposed to be sent her by some young people of London . The autograph is dated from the Lon ^ stone Lighthouse , and is in most excellent preservation , adorned with wreaths of amaranths and immortcls , . surrounded by the names of iifty of the heroes and heroines of all nations , written in gold on medallions , and cm losed in a richly carved frame of Irish bog oak . It will shortly be deposited in the British Munciim . It was appropriately exhibited near to the Duke of Northumberland ' s prize lifeboat .

John Oxenford said : —Between four and five o ' clock on Monday afternoon I was with a lady at the bottom of Ludgate-hill . I was endeavouring to turn into Farringdon-street to get out of the crowd , when prisoner and another woman were pushed violently
against me in front . I inquired why they were pushing , and they said they were pressed forward by a man behind them . The prisoner , however , seized me on the right , while the other woman collared me on the left side . I asked why they were holding me so fast , and they said they could not help it . The lady I had with me suddenly said , — " Oh ! she has taken your watch , " and at the same time she seized prisoner by the wrist and held her till the officer came up . The other woman escaped , I lost my watch , but did not see who had it .
Cross-examined : I thought they caught hold of me to save themsdlves from the crush . I . had been only a short time in the crowd , and could not have lost my watch many minute ? , as I am in the habit of looking at it very frequently . I am sure prisoner is the one who collared me on the right side . Allice M'Keller , of 3 , Adelphi-tcrrace , said : —I was with Mr . Oxenford on Monday afternoon . I saw prisoner drawing her hand frcm the watch-guard , and the next moment she handed it to the other woman . I dropped my muff , and immediately seized them , both , and held them one in each hand , butthe other woman not in custody struck me on the hand with , some instrument , which compelled me to let go my hold , and she escaped . I cannot use my hand in consequcence . I detained the prisoner until the officer came up and took her into custody .
Cross examined : The prisoner passed the watch across me to the other woman , and I saw it very distinctly as she held it between her thumb and finger . I might have snatched it out of her hand , but did not , as my hands were engaged holding the prisoner and her companion . Sir 11 . W . Garden : The case seems very clear against the prisoner , but I should like to have the other woman before me , and deal with them both together . They appear to be known , and I shall therefore remand the case for a few days , to give the officers an oppuruinity of apprehending the prisoner ' s accomplice .

I endeavoured to rouse him ; but , finding that impracticable without some gentle stimulant , I went downstairs
for the horeewhip , and on rny return I applied it to his shoulders , which soon induced him to open his eyes . { LaiK / htcr . ) I saw at a glance he was a stranger , as he had filing his red coat on the bed , which immediately attracted my attention . I interrogated him as to how he came into my house , and he said one of my men servants introduced him , and he thought there was no harm in taking up his abode there for the night . lie was perfectly sober , I believe . 1 suppose he came to celebrate Lord Mayor ' s-day .
