He would try to give his reasons in a plain manner, notwith standing all the law and logic that had been put forth. His first reason was, that he could not trust a church-rate in the hands of West Derby officers a no th er year, j udg i ng from the use to which it has been put during the past year ; and the chairman could not dispute that he was correct in that statement, inasmuch as the reading of minutes would bear him out.

BEFORE; THE MAYOR AND MR. J. STEWART, SEAMENS WAGES CASES. Francis Lee, late steward on board the ship Bosphorus, belonging to Messrs. Rathbone, summoned the captain of that vessel for £4l odd, wages due to him. Mr. Cobb was for the complainant, and Mr. Snowball for the defence. It appeared that the complainant shipped in July last as steward of the ship, at £4 a month on a voyage to Calcutta and back. He cont; steward up to the 9th February, on t e, when In le ground of ineap was disratea ordered - to do the s dut)T of an ordiry . seaman, which he refused to do, alleging that he had shipped as steward, and steward he would be. For the defence, several passages were read from the log, showing that the complainant was insolent to the captain, that he, did not know how to perform his duty, that he had not got ready some potatoes one morning for breakfast, that he had wasted the ship's stores, and that he had stabbed a boy on hoard. The defence set up by Mr. Cobb to these allega tions, showed that the charges were utterly groundless, and he argued that there was no foundation for them, for the complainant had acted as steward from July to February without any complaint. If he had been incapable to perform his duty, the captain would not have kept turn at Calcutta, but discharged him. He did not, however, do so, but kept him on the homeward voyage, without any com plaint. Mr. Cobb also showed, -on the cross-examination of the captain and the mate, that the stores were not wasted, and, in fact, quite disproved the charges made acrainst Lee. The magistrates, after a short .consultation, ordered the complainant £37 7s. Bd. and costs, being the full sum (less some deductions allowed to be correct by the complainant) claimed by Lee, whereas the defendent wanted to stop £3O 16s. from the complainant. A young man named Jones, summoned the owners of the ship James Brown, under the following circumstances. Mr. Aspinall (barrister) appeared for the defence. The facts were these:—Tones was a steward on board the ship, and when crossing the Bay of Biscay, last December, he got his leg broken in the discharge of his dray. He was put back into Cork, where he remained some time, and was then sent back to Liverpool. The only question at issue between the parties was, how much] the claimant was entitled to under the circumstances. After a thorough EVANS'S ion of the whole case the magistrates awarded Jones £26 odd, and certain costs and expenses—all he claimed. investig CHARGE AGAINST A BROKER.—Thomas Kelly, broker, 16, Greetham-street, was charged with acting as a pawn broker, without a licence. Mr. Tyndall appeared for the crown, and Mr. Bluck (for Mr. Cobb) was for the defence. The opening portion of this case appeared in our paper of yesterday. There were several witnesses produced at both sides, and, after a long investigation, the magistrate decided that the charge was proved, and fined Kelly £25. ----.---..-..._..._.__ [ADVERTISEMENT.] 81(OKE NUISANCE.

Smoke Nuisance, we are corn- pelled, thus publicly, to accuse you, not only of extreme and uncalled for intrusiveness in the per sonal remarks you made about our trade, of which you are profoundly ignorant, but, likewise, to state, as our own opinion and that of all we have heard speak of you on the subject, that you very greatly outstep the position you are placed in, by greatly ~B e rating the cases, ar..d very untruthfully stating that both you and Mr. Wignall could remedy the evil of smoke, when first placed on a green fire, in one minute and a half. In our case, we were accused of creating a smoke three times in the last TWELVE months, once for s. 'even minutes nee for five minutes, and once for two minut ;, making in the than four minutes; and, as manufac- turers, we publicly defy you to prevent smoke on a green fire, when first lighted, in a less time. We have done all we can to condense the quantity of smoke, and we believe we have arrived at very near, if not quite, perfection. Our chimney is about 90 feet high, and we make much less smoke, on the average of the day, than from the common household chimney, not half its height. We again repeat that, if you, or those whom you repre sent (if you do represent them), don't wish to drive the manufacturing trade' entirely out of the town, you will have more consideration for the many difficulties they have to gainst ; and that when you do think proper to drag men away from their business, to appear before the magistrates for an hour, and sometimes two hours, in tho busiest time of the day, we request you will confine yourself to the fP-1 contend ..“,urs and the truths of the case, and to show some consideration to "do unto others what you would wish '—WATNWRIGHT, WRIGHT, & Co.
