His Honour—As the evidence stands, I am of opinion
that defendant has well earned the money according to the
agreement.

Defendant—l apply for costs.

Mr. Osgood (Registrar)—What are you?
Defendant—A merchant. (Laughter.)
Mr. Osgood—What kind of a merchant?
Defendant—A rag merchant.

Mr. Osgood, amid considerable laughter, awarded half-
a-crown.

Verdict for defendant.

A GREAT DISPUTE OVER A CHEESE-WRIGHT V. KNIGHT.

This was an action to recover £3, the value of a cheese,
Mr. Buchanan appearing for plaintiff, and Mr. Robertson
for defendant. The case was most strenuously fought on
either side, a direct contradiction being the result.
His Honour said it was manifestly impossible for him to
decide cases of this kind. The parties were equally re
spectable, and in all such disputes a jury must be called.
Mr. Buchanan—l agree with all that has fallen from
your Honour.

WHIT IS NEGLIGENCE?-IMPORTANT TO OWNERS OF

VEHICLES-LEWIS V. FINCH.

This was a case in which a jury was called upon to say if
defendant's servant had been guilty of negligence, defen-
dant's horse having run away.
Mr. Buchanan appeared for plaintiff, Mr. Smith for de-
fendant.

After hearing the evidence, his Honour said that in this
case plaintiff's horse and cart were standing still and de-
fendant's horse and gig were, as alleged, being watched by
a groom standing at the shaft. It was sworn that a third
horse took fright and caused defendant's to do the same.
The jury would say if the defendant's servant was acting

DOUBLE MURDER AND SUICIDE A 7
BRADFORD.

It was yesterday evening discovered that a mar-
ried woman, named Ryan, had drowned herself and
two children in a dam connected with an iron foun-
dry, situated in George street, Bradford, belonging
to Mr. Onions. The discovery was made about six
o'clock; and the tragedy, it is supposed, as the
woman had been seen in the neighbourhood during
yesterday afternoon, was committed shortly before
that time. All the bodies were recovered, and
were removed to the Britannia Hotel. Mary
Ryan was about twenty-two years of age, and the
wife of James Ryan, a journeyman tailor, with
whom she resided in a cellar dwelling, in Lower
Ebenezer-street, Bradford. Her children were
Joseph Patrick Ryan, aged two and a half years,
and an infant of nine months named Mary Ann
Ryan. It is said that the poor woman led a very
unhappy life, in consequence
of differences with
her husband. Her mother states that yesterday
morning the husband showed his violent conduct
towards his wife by sharpening a
knife and threat-
ening to cut her throat. 'hie bodies were found
widely apart, and it is supposed the mother had
tossed her children into the dam and then leaped
in herself. The dam is closely surrounded by
houses, and it is somewhat surprising
that she
was not detected in the act.

The papers state that a very rare phenomenon, a
femme sauvage, has lately arrived in Paris. This wild
woman of the woods has been shown to the different learned
societies. Her hair measures five feet in length, and, being
thick and woolly, forms an immense mantle, and gives her
the appearance of being of an enormous size.
