Tee Treasury Minute dated the 30Ih November,
about the bankruptcy or insolvency of Lemberg of the
Civil Service is • curiosity. We are Informed that
" serious peenniary embarreesmast" impairs "the
efflatemoy of • nubile servant." May we not ask—" or
any other man"? If • member of the Civil Service
becomes a bankrupt, he is suspended from duty and pay
until it appean that his difilsallies have been oetaskinad
by "unavoidable misfortune." Are there any eds.
fortunes absolutely unavoidable? My friend, Josiah
Pate, of the Civil :Service, hae a fruitful wife sad nide
children. Feeding the ten mouth, has reduced him to
poverty, and be is in debt. lab. lobe turned out of
the Service? According to the doctrine of Mr. J. B.
ILI • large tastily is • misfortune that ow and oeglit

Service, Invested hie span cash in a Limited Company
that is winding no. He has to pay heavy calls, and he
is ruined o lens. Is he to he turned out of the
Service? Certainly he wag not obliged to invest in the
"Diddlemoth" share*. The only persons who will
approve of the Minute ere the mooeplenders. They
will have the whip band over their victims of the Civil
Ferries. "Attempt," they will say, "to free yourself
from our extortion, and you will loco your place."
Happily this Minute Ls dated the 30th November, and
no_doubt the present Government will revise it.

pariah of Williton, in the Taunton union, ever since the
yew 1855, 'was charged at Taunton Borough Petty
•berdons on Wednesday, with ember:cling the ram of
CBI Os. 9d., the property of the parishioners. This
was • very sad cue the defendant haring hitherto been
.onsldered • highly respectable man. He was an active
partisan of one of the candidates at the last election for
tbe borough, and so confident was he that his favourite
would win that he unfortunately laid heavy wagon upon
his return. In order to rain money to deposit the
stakes he made a fictitious rate, and in this way obtained
from the parishioners MK The result of the election
was against him, and he lest Use whole sum. He was
*en obliged to make known his defalcations to ooe of
the overseers, Mr. Perrin, and wrote him the following
letter • Dec. End, 1868.—Respected Mr—My feelings
call me to write • few lines to you. Sly folly has brought
on me the lass of your rumen and confidence I have
ever received at your hands. I entreat your symathy
for my wife's sake, as she was not aware but everything
was going on as it should. 'Excitement overruled my
control, and until too late I was unable to bring my
thoughts together of the wrong. I trust you will treat
my misfortune with the most possibly lenin.—ln grief,
I remain, JA.mto ,11r. FL C. Tronchard
appeared on behalf of the overseen. Henn. Perrin and
Taylor, and Mr. Cook (of the firm of Reed and Cook,
of tridgwater) for the defendant. Evidence having been
taken of the collection of rates by the defendant, he was
committed for trial.
