The prosecutor is a baker , and his house was robbed by means of some person forcing aa entrance through a fanlight over the door . From the size of the window it was evident it must hare been entered by a boy only , or , at all events , some very small person , and a day or two after the robbery the prisoner was taken into custody , with the stolen handkerchiefs in his possession . The prisoner has been
several times convicted of felony . Baron Parke sentenced him to be transported for ten years , and a # -he was leaving the bar he made use of an expression towards his Lordship too disgusting to be repeated . The ] Judge turned to the jury , and said that , young as the culprit was , he was a most hardened offender . His Lordship then handed to them a large flint stone , which , it appeared , the prisoner had provided himself with before his trial , intending , as Jie informed another prisoner , to hurl it at the judge in the event of his being convicted . The officers , however , fortunately discovered the prisoner ' s intention , and took the missile from him .
Angung Extraordinary . —A few days since as Mr . Hughes , a well-known angler at Windsor , was spinning for trout near Datchet-bridge , he hooked what he at first imagined to be a pplendid fish .

Upon , winding up , and bringing the prize to the bank , it was discovered to be a faggot , upwards of four feet In length , in the interior of which was a fine eel weighing between three and four pounds . It appeared that the eel , which was alive and in beautiful condition , had been bo entangled with the sticks composing the faggot that it had become regularly trapped .
ExTBAOBDiWAiRY Escape . —Between nine and ten o ' clock yesterday morning , an occurrence took place at the residence of Mr . Osbaldiston , ( lessee of the Victoria Theatre J at Balhsm Hill , which was nearly attended with the most fatal result . It appeared that Mr . Osbaldiston , having ordered his horse and chaise to be got ready for the purpose of coining to town to attend ' his professional duties , was seated in hid breakfast-room reading the newspaper , when his groom suddenly announced that the vehicle was ready ; and Mr . Osbaldiston put down the paper
and rose to depart . He had just reached the door of the room , and was in the very act of crossing the threshhold , when the ceiling of the apartment he had thus quitted gave way and came down with a tremendous crash , in one entire masa , bringing with it a costly chandelier which was suspended over the centre of the apartment , and burying it beneath the ruins . The canse of this sudden and extraordinary occurrence has not yet been ascertained ; but it is supposed to have arisen either from the decayed stated of one of ihe timbers in the ceiling , or from some defect in the construction of the premises .
A Bitb . —Alfonso Bombard ! , a celebrated sculptor of the Emperor Charles V ., was a great coxcomb .

" " Perhaps , " said the young lady , " something bites you . " This story got abroad j and Alfonso became ^ ho jest of the city .
Ah Awkward : iKcrDEwr . —A great sensation was extited on Wednesday evening , on board the Queen , Gravesend steamer , en her passage np the river , on the announcement by the steward to the captain , that a lady of the name of Spillman m the cabin required the immediate assistance of an accoucheur .

Anecdote of onb of the Sweli , MoB .- ^ -It frequently happens that the individuals -who have to perform ihe necessary and sometimes exciting duty of tracing out the minute history of grave delinquencies fall nponlittle incidents and traits of character that are not a little amusing . A curious anecdote somewhat illustrative of the manners and mode of life amosgsi tho more highly initiated in the art of irregular appropriation has transpired in the course of the inquiry in the case of Anderson , bow pending before the magistrates of this town . One of the most celebrated associates of the gang of adepts with v / hioh Anderson has been conneoted is known by the designation ' of "Dashing J . emmy Grant , " and a very showy smart fellow he is , if all accounts may
be credited . The head quarters of Dashing Jemmy are in London , but he occasionally , when business rtqairfta , takes an airing in the provinces . Lately , wben ia Liverpool , he west to the Adelphi , and ordered dinner . The waiter produced the bill of fare , in which were set forth that gosdly choice of substantials and ; delicacies , for which the excellent hotel alluded to is so famous , Dashing Jemmy was expected to point out the viands of which he intended to partake ; but alas ! varied as were his accomplishments , reading and writing formed no portion of his acquirements ; but as he did not lack a most gentlemanly appearance , he , without hesitation ,
pointed out two dishes which he desired to be served up . Ths waiter stared , aud asked him if he preferred those to the other dishes named in the bill of fare . Dashing Jemmy , believing he had ordered something very rare and expthsive , and as he had entered the hotel with the determination of , as he termed it , •* cutting a swell , " said it was a dinner he was much accustomed to . The waiter took his order , as in duty bound , and Jemmy waited patiently for ike dainties of which he was to partake . In due time the dinner was dished , but what was Jemmy ' s astonishment when the covers ^ ere removed to find that he was supplied with padding and cabbage . —Liverpool

The following ia furnished by Captain BankB , of the bark Juno , which arrived at -Sydney on the 19 ih of April from the South Sea Islands : — " Whilst staying in Juno Bay , the following intelligence was gleaned from an English lad I who had run away from the schooner Mumford : —fie stated that a party from the northwest harbour of the Isle of Pines had , a fow weeks before the arrival of the Juno , arrived at Leefo , from whom he learned the following particulars relative to the brig Star , of Tahiti , Captain Ebrill , which was destroyed by-the natives of the Isle of Pines : —It appears she was at anchor , the captain and crew on
shore cutting wood , and at a signal from the principal ohief , Matuku , the natives rushed upon them , slaughtered them , and afterwards devoured them . Tho vessel was then towed on shore , was stripped by Matuku , ' and afterwards set on fire , but during the progress of the fire gome gunpowder ignited , blowing up the vessel , and destroying about thirty natives , who were standing on the poop . '' The brig Martha , of Sydney , missing at Mairee , was seized , and the Captain and part of the crow destroyed in the following dreadful manner : — " They were tied to the trees with their legs and arms extended , and their entrails taken out and roasted ; they were then taken down , roasted , and devoured .

A Timely Repbieve . — . —A man named Rhamke was , on July 6 , about to be beheaded at Pinneberg ( HolsteiD ) , for murder and incendiarism , and was already on his way to the soaffold , when a person on horseback galloped up , waving a white handkerchief , and crying out " a reprieve , " in the King's name . " The culprit was taken back to prison . The cause of this proceeding was simply as follows : — A physician , named Kobke , and old Bohoolfellow of the prisoner , happened to be present when the order for Rbamke ' s execution was read aloud in the pablio market of Pinneberg . ' M . Kobke , baring always been of opinion that his comrade was insane , set off at once to Husum . where . the King happened
to be , and laid the matter before him , with euch reasons for his belief , that his Majesty consented to Btop the exeoution , in order that a commission of medical men might decide on [ the question of tho man ' s sanity . After a Buffioient investigation the medical men were unanimous in declaring that the man was | pefectly eanc . The Minister of Justice ( hen proposed to the King to / order the execution which had been stopped ; but his Majesty , taking into consideration that tne prisoner ihad , in being led out to excution , experienced the agony of death , refused to allow him to go through the sama trial a second time , and commute ! his punishment to perpetual imprisonment . —Galigrianu ;

The discharges of the electric fluid ou the river did considerable damage to the colliers lying at anohor ; the lightning struck the masts of the brig Rebecca and Elizabeth , and , passing down , shivered ipart of them in splinters . At Chatham Barracks the water poured raj pidly down the parade ground from the terrace belonging to the officers in such quantity and with such velocitv . that UDwards of 100 cartloads of sand
were washed down in front of the men's barracks . In the town of Chatham , yesterday , the fire eneinaa were used , pumping out the water from the different tradesmen ' s houses in the High-street , who , uBfortunately , have suffered severely in the damage of their variouB articles of merohandize , many shops being inundated by the water rushing in at the dbora from the flooded state of the roads .

Stage Coach Accident . —On Saturday , the following serious stage-coach accident occurred at Uxbridge : —About eleven o'clock , as the Prince of Wales Oxford coach , was proceeding through the town of Uxbridge , on its outward journey , having sixteen passengers inside and out , when about the centre of the town , D f ax the Ram Inn , it suddenly came ia contact with a waggon , belonging to Messrs . Johnson , of Uxbridge , by which the coachman ( Mr . Kirk ) was thrown off the box with great violence , and ! the wheels of the coach passed over him . The horses being uncontrolled , instantly started off at full speed down the town , upon seeing I which , one of the outside passengers jumped off the roof , the others still
retaining their seats . jThe horses passed down the town with safety , and crossed the bridge dividing Middlesex from Bucks ; but immediately afterwards they ran the coach against the wall of the extensive mill of Mr . Stevens , by which it was broken almost to pieces . The horses were then stopped ; and to the surprise of all who witnessed the accident , it was found that not one of the passengers were injured beyond the fright and a few slight bruises . The passenger who jumped off 13 also slightly injured ; bat we regret to state { that the coachman is not expected to survive . Most of the passeD « ers immediately afterwards proceeded on their journey in another coach . I Atrocjocs AirEMPT . —The Barnstaple and Ilfracombe mail left Bideford on Wednesday , at seven o ' clock in the morning , with three inside passengers and seven out . The Queen opposition coach , which starts from Bideford about the same time , { one * mile

The driver of the Queen , having an ; eye to business even in the hour of peril , succeeded in getting hold of the whole of the passengers . On examination by Mr . Pettle , the coach-builder at ! Barnstable , it was clearly proved to be the work ] of some notorious villain or villains , the nuts aud bolts having been removed from the wheel .

A Singulab FauJ—Two hundred miles from Island Sound is a narrow pass in the river Connecticut , only five yards ojrer , forming by the shelving mountains of solid rock , whose tops intercept the clouds . Through this johasm are compelled to pass all the waters which in the time of floods bury the northern country . At ! the upper Cohostbe river then spreads " twenty-four miles wide , " and tor five or six weeks first'Tate ships ! might sail over lands that afterwards produce the greatest crops of hay and grain ia all Amerioa | People who can bear the eight , the groans , the tremblings aud surly motion of water , trees , and ice , j through this awful passage , view with astonishment one of the greatest phenomena ia nature . Here ] water is condensed , without
frost , by pressure , by swiftness , between the adamant and sturdy rocks , to such a degree of induration that no iron crowbar can be forced into it * Here iron , l ead , and cord have one common weight ; here , stoady as time and harder than marble , the stream passes irresistable , if ( not swift as lightning : the electric fire rends trees ia pieces with no greater ease than does this mighty water , The passage is about four hundred yards in length / and of a zig-zag form , with obtuBe corners . At high water are carried through this strait , masts and other timber , with incredible swiftness and sometimes with safety ; but when the water is too low , the masts , timber , and trees strike on one side jor the other , and although of the largest size , are rent ia one moment into shivers , and splintered like a broom , to the amazent of spectators . The meadows ( for many miles below are covered with immense quantities of wood thus torn in pieces , which compel the hardiest traveller to
reflect how feeble is man aud how great is the Almighty who formed the ' lightnings andthe irresistible power and strength ] of waters ! No living creature was ever known to ^ pass throu gh this narrow , except an Indian woman , who was in a canoe , in attempting to cross the river above it , but carelessly suffered herself to fall vyithm the power of the current . Perceiving her danger , she took a bottle of rum she had with her and drank the whole of it : then lay down iu the canoe to meet her destiny . Most wonderful to tell , she went safely through , and was taken out of the canoe some miles below , very much intoxicated . Being asked how she COUld be so daringly imprudent as jto drink such a quantity of rum with a prospect of instant death before her , the squaw , as well as her condition would let her replied — "Yes , yes , white majn—ifc was too much rum for once to be sure ; but I was not willing to loss a drop of it : so I drank it , andjyou see I have saved all .

Liverpool Cobn Mabket , MondaT , Aug . 14 . — Since tbis day se ' nnigh ' t we have received 3 , 229 sacks of Flour , and 3 , 683 loads of Oatmeal from Ireland ; but the imports of British Grain are very light . Only 1 , 018 quarters of Wheat , and 506 barrels of Flour are reported from Canada . A decided improvement has this [ week taken place in the weather ; the last four days ha ^ e been exceedingly fine , and we have had a [ correspondingly dull trade . At Friday's market Wheat might have been bought
at 4 d . to 6 d . per bushel below the rates quoted at the close of last week ; still the dealers kept back , and little could be done .

Tbe supplies of Flour and Oatmeal from Ireland continue liberal ; and those of the former article from the interior show no ground for apprehension of scarcity . There was a very small attendance of buyers at our
market this morning , and a decline of 4 d . per 701 bs . in the value of Wheat may be noted * Flour was only iu moderate request ; 46 a . per sack was an extreme rata for choice ^ upeifiae qualities , and we alter our quotations in accordance .
