Wean or Morn sr DILAT.—At the Borough
Petty Sessions, on Tuesday last, before the Mayor (K.
N. Howard, Seq.), J. Robertson, Neg., Dr. Drew, J.
Landis, Esq., and J. B. Robene, Keg, several cases
came before the Court illustrating the very large per
esetwe of loss the poor safer through being unready
with their payments. Mr. Pocks, rate-collector, had
summoned several for non.peyment of sums, in some
ores amounting to only • few shillings, and yet they
were obliged to incur a large proportional addition for
costs, just for a few weeks' longer gram. In one case
the amount sued for was 7a., and the defendant wanted
a fortnight longer to pay the money.—The Mayor
panted out that 2s. costs were added, only for the
sake of this short accommodation—a per esatage,
which if people in the middle class paid for loaned
money, they would soon be ruined.—The delendaat,
however, chose the additional costa, rather than pay
at ones. -- Alfred Holum% • shoemaker, was
summoned for non-payment of rates, 45., but he did
not appear until after a shilling bad been added to his
costs by P.S. Apse,' being sworn to the service of the
summons. The sergeant added that the man stated be
had not had any work, and had no food or money in
the house, and the wife told him the children were
crying for bread.—Mr. Fooks said the man was only
summoned for • pert of the rat,; he had been similarly
summoned before, and always managed to get out of
town. —The Mayor: What 6 to be done if the man
has had DO work or money !—Mr. F lobs : Then he
ought not to live in • house at £l6 • year, sir.—The
Mayor: Perhaps the landlord ought not to let him
have the house; but we must deal with the case am we
find it.—By this UM Hammen appeared, an 1 was
told he had incurred Is. costs more through not answer.
lag at first. The costs in this case would amount to
4s. more. and here the Mayor said the coats of •
fortnight's accommodation amounted to £1,300 per
cent.—A. fortnight allowed to pay.
