SEAR, WORDS ON MX Boatman Bison —.Lt the
Weymouth Petty Seedone on Saturday, there wee •
little difference between two of the magistrates. It
appears that Ills generally undiestood that the Court
on Saturday does not open until twelve o'clock, the
time on other days being eleven. This arrangement
was made. we believe, when the County Court Sedge
desired to have all the room. at the Hall fJr use of the
Court. On Saturday Hr. alling arrived rather earlier
than twelve and proceeded with the business of the
Petty Seraione. Dr. Drew same at five ininutca wore
IS and was surprised to lad that the business had
oonateenced. He remarked that he was summoned
from Radlpol. for twelve o'cloek, that he had come
down, and w.s there five =bout. before 12, and the
Chairman had no right to oommenoe before the time.
—Mr. Mho( sharply retorted: You must not come
here to dictate to me; I have been long enough On the
Bench to understood my dull—Dr. Drew: I do com-
plain that you have no business to open the Court
before twelve o'elook.—The rest of the remarks were
not soffielently audible to be resorted with itertabsty.
