[Before Mr. CASTELAIN

WIFE BEATING.—A respectable-looking man named'
Joseph Plunderleith, a tidewaitcr, was brought up on a
charge of having assaulted his wife, Mary Plunderleith.
Mr. Cobb was for the prosecution, and Mr. Bluck for
the defence. It appeared that the complainant kept a
provision shop at 38, Myrtle-street, and had two grown-
up daughters. On Sunday afternoon the defendant came
into the house, when the complainant and he disputed
about some trifling matter, and she was ordered to go out
of the house. This she refused to do, and he then struck
her. She ran out, and he followed; and he attempted to
choke her by holding his hand on her mouth, and said
he would kill her though he should be hanged. Two
other witnesses were called, who corroborated the state-
ment made by the complainant. Mr. Bluck admitted
that an assault had been committed, but not without
great provocation, as the complainant had frequently
told his client that he was little better than Gleeson
Wilson. The Bench ordered the defendant to be im-
prisoned for three months, without the option of fine.

IMPROVEMENT IN GENTLEMEN'S HATS.—
Many letters from time to time have, on this subject,
appeared in the "Pest" and " Journal," tile originals
of which are to be seen at our shops, 9, DALE-
STREET, and 6, CRESCENT. MR. JOHN A.
SIMPSON, the active partner of the firm of
KINNEAR and SIMPSON, begs to state that this
improvement in Gentlemen's Hats is his own inven-
tion, and registered by him in his own name, and is

say-
ing ono word about it himself. All that has been
done has just been to print, in the " Daily Post "
and the "Liverpool Journal," some three or four
letters at a time. The principle upon which the
advertisement is inserted is the one so well expressed in
Proverbs--" Let another man praise thee, and not
thine own month ; a stranger, and not thine own lips."
The whole of those letters are written by persons
altogether uninfluenced by airy other motive than this
—that they really felt the benefit of Mr. SIMPSON'S
invention, and in such a degree, that they thought it
only just to him to state their opinions, not in words
merely, but also in writing,
