AN EXTORTIONATE GUEST !—A case was heard
at Croydon on the 20th inst., which reads more like
a atmy out of a jest-book than a grave legal report. " Dr."
Snow Beck had a friendly.acquaintance and some business
relations with Mr. Sterns, occasionally prescribed for the
family, twice attended Mrs. Sterne as accoucheur, and dined
with them very frequently. He was paid for his medical
services, partly in money and partly in presents, and seemed
quite content ; but, quarrelling with hiR friend, he suddenly
produced a bill for three years' medical attendance amount-
ing to £591. It was proved that he had not mentioned this
claim even in a previous reference to an arbitrator, that
some of the items were for attendance at the patient's
dinners, and that he charged £3 3s. for each attendance.
The jury could not stand it, stopped plaintiff's counsel to
say they had made up their minds, and brought in a verdict
for defendant, the judge declaring that in his experience he
had never heard a claim so outrageous. To have made the
case quite perfect, Mr. Sterne should have consulted Joe
Miller, and pleaded a set-off of 10 guineas for every dinner
supplied.—Spectator.

JOHNSON'S OPINION OF -EDMUND BURKE.
—Who does not remember it in Boswell, as thus
expressed by the Great Doctor?--" What I most envy
Burke for is his being constantly the same. He is never
what we call humdrum ; never unwilling to begin to talk,
nor in haste to leave off. . . . Burke, sir, is such a
rem; that if you met him for the first time in the street
When You were stopped by a drove of oxen, and you and he
stepped aside to take shelter but for five minutes, he'd talk
envh with me
You in such a manner that, when you parted, you would
say, this is an extraordinary man. Now you may be long
MR.
ACLAciiLAN, of Manchester, proposes the
