Stealing a Watch.---Thomas James v. Elizabeth James.--- The complainant and prisoner are father and daughter, and we are sorry that we had to sit to hear the charge of a father prosecuting his own child. The prosecutor is a farmer, residing at Penrose, in the parish of Llangattock Lingoed, who deposed that on the 14th ult. the watch was in his possession, hanging over the fireplace in his house. His daughter was present, but he did not see her. The watch was missing on the Monday morning afterwards, and traced to Mr. Isaacs, pawnbroker, Abergavenny, where it was offered for pledge, but was stopped on the May-fair day. Sergeant Lipscombe gave evidence as to finding the watch, and the father swore to it being his property. The girl acknowledged her guilt, and was sentenced to two months' imprisonment in the House of Correction. This is not the first time that this unfortunate girl has been brought before the magistrates for her misconduct; and we trust the punishment she will have to undergo will be the means of bringing her to reason and reformation.
