Robbery by a Manufacturer.

-At the Leeds Assizes, John Haigh, a cloth manufacturer and Saville Haigh, were indicted for stealing cloth from the Huddersfield Cloth Hall John Haigh pleaded guilty, and took all the blame on himself, exonerating the other prisoner from any share in the robbery. — Saville Haigh was accordingly acquitted, and John sentenced to 18 months' hard labour, the judge commenting with severity on the fact that from his position in life he was under no pressing temptation to do as he had done from want. The Boston Herald says :—": — " The substi tute brokers around Island Pond have been doing a brisk business at running men out of Canada, by stowing them away in freight cars on the Grand Trunk Railroad, and locking them in. Six deserters from the 60th Rifles were lately discovered in that condition, and were afterwards ' put in' at Lewiston, Maine, by a broker, who cleared 3,000 dollars by them." Mr. E, S. Loder, whose beautiful opera, " The Night Dancers," and many other musical compositions, whose mind, overwrought, gare way in the midday of his efforts to refine and purify English compositions, died, the owner of one room at 101, Bolsover street, poor, though uot absolutely in want.

Great Advantage of Crinomne.— An American psper tells how crinoline was used to manage a skittish horse. As two ladies were driving along a road, the horse became frightened at a large boulder by the road side, and refused to go on ; whereon one of the ladies going to the object which had so unscrupulously impeded their progress, spread herself all over it, and so completely covered it from sight, that the horse immediately became manageable, and carried them to their journey's end without further mischief
