%Vitro'. DAMAO'. Collate, hawker, from
Plymouth, was charged at the borough police court,
oss Monday, before Dr. Drew and B. Hopkins,
with wilfully breaking two panes of Mass at the
Market-house Tavern, of the value of f 2 10s.—The
prosecutor stated defendant came to his house on
Friday and represented himself to be in the chair-
snaking line. Hs slaked for employment, and he gave
him two childrsn's chairs to mend. On Saturday
evening he brought them back, and charged half -a-
crown. He also had taken two fcrks to mend, for
which he charged 6d. The work was very badly done.
He told him he was busy, and asked him to call on
the Monday. He refused, and made use of very foal
expressions, saying he would not go without the
money. Prosecutor then turned him out, but he came
back, and having covered his fist with his hat, dashed
It through the ear door, breaking two panes, which
I would cost 3 104. without the setting. He was not
I drunk, and knew perfectly well what he was doing.—
On. month hard labour.

MR EDWARDS, M.P., is HOSPTTAL—Spesking at
the ceremony of laying the foundation stone of the
Children's Hospital at Brighton, on Tuesday, Mr. James
L. A shbury, the member for that borough, in the course
of his address said :—A friend of his, a member of the
House of Commons • very wealthy man, and •
bachelor like hirt;elf, had the misfortune to be
knocked down by • train, which passed over him,
causing • compound fracture of one of his leg.. He
was taken to St. Bartholomew's Hospital, London,
and on the day before yesterday he went there to see
him. He found him surrounded by every possible
comfort and every luxury which anybody mild wish
to possess, and surrounded also by those whom he
must call nurses, although they are really ladies, and
whom any bachelor might well feel proud of being
attended by. (Laughter.) In the oourse of their con-
versation his friend told him how thankful he was that he
had been brought to that hospital instead of being taken
home. " Although "he said "I am possessed of great
wealth and everything that would give me comfort
and luxury in my home, if I had a wife—(a
If I met with an accident again or became sick the
very first words I should attar would be ' Take me to
the hospital; don't take me home.'" Now, that was
the importance of a man of the world. (Hear, hear.)
If that honourable gentleman could appreciate the
comfort, the attention, and the luxuries clan hospital
