We have a little story to tell about a c;irl who, some time ago, attended a fair in one of che towns in the pleasant county of Bucks. At this fair there was a " merry-go-round," and the girl thought that she would like a ride upon o"e of the wooden horaes. She had nothing but a sovereign in her pocket, and she went to tho proprietrix of tho ■' merry-go-round " and gave it to her, getting back lid in coppers and a promise of the ]9s when the ride was over. The woman who took the money evidently calculated on swindling tho «irl out of this amount, for when the " merry-go-round " stopped, and the change was demanded, the girl was told that she only offered a shilling, hai got back her change, and that (nothing w.is due. The case came before the Bucks Session at Aylesbury. The :': ' merry-go round " woman was charged wiHi stealing 10.3 from the girl, and notwithstanding the ingenious pleading of her agent, that, as tho girl never reoeivod the lOj, out of the sovereign, that as the woiii-m was not to give the sovereign back again, and as it was. not taken against thw girL* will aho had in' no legal spnsy boun guilty of steiling, the jury found her guilty. Tho case, however, was not to end hero, although it seems a very proper ending, and one in accordance w.th the dictates of reason and justice. It came b?fore the Court for the Consideration of Crown Cases Reserved, there being no leas thin fifteen judges on ths lx'nch, including the Lord Chief Justic: of England the Lord Chief Justice of tho Common Pleas, and the .Lord Chief Uarrn. Nearly the whole of the legal le.vrniu?, acumen, and. gunius of England w^re represented, and were occupied for tho greater portion of a clay over this poor girl's sovereign The fifteen judges were anai t together for an hour and a half in considering their decision, and, after infinite legal pains, eire, and the skilful weighing of other ju Igments, they at last decided by a majority that the " merry-go-round " woman had n^t, at all events, stolen 190., and they wore not quite sure indv-ed whether, if she had been indicted for stealing a golf] soverturn, it would have been pos-siiilo U, convict her.
