WESTMINSTER.

It,. Arnold received the following letter upon the subject
of an application made to him • few days ago by a poor
woman, the particulars of which were detailed in our
impression of Saturday
"War-ernes, Sept. 3,1E06.
" Sir,—l regret to be obliged to again trouble you with
the ease of Mrs. Symonds, the wife of a driver in the Land
Transport Corps. In the report of the case, which appeared
in the newspapers of Saturday last, under the head of
' Police Intellipnee,' Mn. Symonds is represented to have
said, on her return to you from her interview with me, that
1 altered my tone' on being shown her husband's letter, in
which he amens that he coeld not it his pay in the Crimea,
and that I said there were tire. hundred men similarly
situated, who could not be Nettled with for want of sufficient
relearns to show what they were entitled to.
"Now, the real statement made by me on the occasion
of the interview with Mrs. Symonds was in answer to a
(either complaint made by her—after we had finished
discussing her husband's ease—that she knew or had
heard of several men who had returned from the Crimea
who were not settled with for hack periods; in answer
to this I stated to the effect represented, that the cues
of such invalid soldiers were those of • great many Gillen
similarly situated, who having returned home without
sufficient documents, mold not be settled with until it should
be ascertained what sums the nes wire really entitled to.
"It will be at once perceived that my statement related
Semen returned home—not to any in the Crimea; and as an
ineornet statesent might lead to a false impression in the
petite naiad, I have the honour to request that you will be
good 'sough to make this explanation known publicly,
that the truth only may appear. It is vary easy to mouse
for an error is a statement which passed through a third
and nosy other persons to the public press, and I am only
unions that it should be Net right.
"An extract has been made from tt e letter brought by
Mn Synoeds, and forwarded to the Crimea for full tar-
simian of the case ; bat I wish to draw your attention to
the eircumetanos that the letter itself is unsigned.
" I beg leave to mention an Instants of the fruitless trouble
ualonnded complaints give this office. The wife of a sol-
dier in the Land Transport Cups (the same corps Si the
husband of Mrs. Symonds) has this morning called here to
intercede for her husband, who had writtea to her that he
had lodged a sum of money in the paymaster's buds to be
remitted to her, which r • bad not received; but, upon an
inquiry being made of the paymaster himself, the man's
antenna was discovered to be a falsehood, and for which
of course he is liable to be brought to courCrearttal.-1

Mr. Thomas Juane, proprietor of saw-mills in the Cm-
mandel-read, Pimlico, was summoned under the Smoke
Preventive Let.
It was proved that smoke had proceeded in thick vo-
lumes from his shaft as tee 6th of August, and every day
since. There had bass some attempt made to make the
furnace consume its stance, but Mr. ileadanon, the govern-
ment inspector, said the improvement had been so trifling
and ineffectual as scarcely to deserve notice.
Defendant pleaded guilty, but said he should IV e to know
what be could do to conform to this law. He bad gone to
the expense of having his furnaces altered four times. but it
appeared lobe as subject to complaint as ever. One of the
schemes he bed patronised had been recommended by one
of the inspectors. Reconsidered it preposterous to sup.
pose that the set of parliament could be complied with, for
chistieys would smoke in spite of the law. If the govern-
ment inspectors would take the setter in bend and p t
his furnaces from emitting smoke, he would be only too'
happy to pay the eosts.
Kr. &admen had pointed out to defendant when en
efficient apparatus was at work, end he had adopted the
very metrary to the mode suggested.
Mr. Arnold observed that there were plenty of modes
which had bees prowouneod satisfactory by the authorities.
A great amend of time bad been given to persons to alter
sad construct tureens agreeably with the requirements of
the law, whisk must be enforced.
Defendant was convicted in the penalty of 51.
