tnought that the notorious English thlef, William
Hobby, was concerned, and who was apprehended
IN consequence, but like many others Of the same
class, managed to walk out of the Tombs before
he took his trial. He was, however, recaptured
few days since in Brooklyn, and has at length con-
fessed his guilt, (of which there was not shadow
OF doubt,) and consented to point out the place
where his share of the stolen property was con.
cealed. Accordingly, on Tuesday, he was placed
in a carriage with two of the deputy keepers, and
taken to his house in Adams street, Brooklyn,
where ne procured the key Of the house in which
he was arrested, and taking the officers into the
yard, he pointed out to them the spot, beneath
pile Of lumber, where the booty was concealed
few minutes digging brought to light forty-one
gold Watches twenty-six silver watches, six silver
watch cases and four valuable movements, worth
In all about six thousand dollars-which have been
restored TO the rightful owners, and is said to be
more than half of all that was stolen, and if any
lenity can be shown to rogue so deep and daring,
1t sexpected that his voluntary surrender of prop
erty which might otherwise have been lost forever,
will induce the court to extend it to hm but II is
hoped if such be the case, the clemency will be
Of nature to prevent his ever committing any fur
ther depredations, in this country at least

late Hon. Isaac r. Jackson, was continued at the
Long Room, No. 169 Broadway, last evening at
half past o'clock, by Gurley II HILL The cata-
logue contains upwards o 1900 lots of works in va
rious languages, on religion, law, fine arts, bellies
lettres, poetry, biography, history, science, and
every department of literature. As might be ex-
pected, there is vast variety amongst this exten-
sive collection, and fair proportion of scarce and
esteemed works. In most instances these bring,
if not LIBERAL pretty fair prices. The following may
be taken az an example THE works of Lord Bo-
lingbroke London, 1854; vols. Alto. 2.75 per vol.
The works of Sheffield, Duke of Buckingham,
London, 1928; 2 vols. Alto. 81 per vol. The works
of Kng Charles l., London, l735; vol. folio,
$275 The works Of James l., in Latin, Frank
fort, 1859 vol. folio, 81. The works Of Plato,
translated by Sydenham & Taylor, London, 1904 ;
vols. 4to So SO per VOL The works Of Seneca,
in Latin; VOL folio, SO Is. The works of Aris-
totle, in Greek and Latin 1 VOL svo., So Is.
Those Of several other standard authors, such as
Pny the Younger, Sir VIM. Temple, Hugo Gro
thus, Machiavel, Puffendorf, &C., did not bring
more than half as much per vol. !; and the bulk Of
the miscellaneous works sold too low. A person
desirous Of making nice selection of books for his
private library, might do SO at little cost by attend
Ing this sale and those who like great bargains,
not being over particular about anything but the
| price, may also accommodate themselves conve-
niently, as the chances of THE kind are rare.
