sustained • loss that will not easily be made up. He
wee very able ase an inspector, and readily saw into the
actual condition of • ezhool at a glance. Thou whore
eohools he has inspected will well remember that calm,
*searching I ok round, at every thing and child and
teacher, with which hie day's work began. It was
something quite peculiar to himself. Interest, con-
eideration. and re assuring hien illness were its chief
characteristics; and when, after it, be tamed to tin
leanness of the day, o3bo ly felt nervous and flurried,
for every one IFNI sure that kindnese and fairness
would have their weight in all his conclusions as t
merit or demerit. He had great sympathy with
the difficulties of the tuchers, and their many dis-
couragement. in working no the ill-attended schools
of that trying county."—Sthoo/ Guardian.

time from the 11 mut i.f Tied., on a charge of having
In August last overcrov,led their steamship Premier.
—Mr. Llcey prieecute I, sod Mr. Nelson, of London,
defended—Mr. Ne son o'nectsel t . the progecution as
a bat one, maintaining that the 0 oninissiooters were
not legally entitled to bring this matter into Court at
all, and in 'Nip et of this contention quoted the case
of Clarke v. B-rallaurh. He contended that in the
present case the penalty was created by statute, and

Crown, through the Board of Trade, alone could

Lb. grounds that the rinks/ In Clarke v. Bradlaugh
was in civil action, awl could not be held as applying
to this, a criminal prosecution pure and simple- The
Board of Trade bad in • letter (produced) informed
the CeMmieel Mere that the local authority were the
proper persons to prosecute.—The Bench over-ruled
Mr. Nelson'e obje.tion,but stated that they would grant
• case. The case for the prosecution was that on a
certain day in August the Premier steamed from

Inflicting the full penalty in any future cases of this
kind,—Eli Curtis, muter of the Poole steamer
Telegraph, was summoned for a similar iiffence.—Mr.
H. S. Dickinson, of Poole, chifataled.—lt appeared
that the certificate of the Telegraph allowed sert

B iurnemouth to Ryde she took noorly 200. and lauded
160 at the pier in the evening, taking many others on
to Poole. In this cue no warning or caution had been
previously given, and as the evidence for the defence,
Including that of the pier-muter at Bournemouth,
showei that an attempt was ma le t . keep the people
back, but that many excursionists climbed over the
'pommel after the gangway ha-1 been removed, the
magistrates inflate I the nominal penalty of EL—On the
