SHERIFFS' COURT.
(Before Mr. Commissioner Kerr.)

THE COMPOSITORS OF THE LATE " MORNING MAIL."-

SHUTTLEWORTH V. FAULKENER.

This was an application to have out of court certain
monies paid in by defyndant.
Mr. BuchanaU appeared for the defendant, who was the
publisher and registered proprietor of the late Morning
Mail, upon which paper the plaintiff had been a compositor.
In the first instance an action was brought against the de-
fendant by two compositors named Eastman and Shuttle-
worth (the present plaintiff). They both obtained verdicts,
and Mr. Buchanan applied for a new trial in the case
now before the court. His Honour ordered that
money claimed by plaintiff should be paid into court, with
certain costs, and this being done, the new trial was to
be tried on June 21 last year. Upon that day the plaintiff
did not appear, and the case was struck out.
Mr. Buchanan now asked that, as the first order in
plaintiff's favour was entirely gone, defendant should be
allowed to have the money in court.
His Honour was of opinion that defendant ought to give
notice to the other side that this application would be
made.

Mr. Buchanan urged that this would lead to some incon-
venience. The only question before the Court was whether
defendant was entitled to have the money.
His Honour was induced to think he could make no
order in the matter.

Application refused.
THE LAW OF LANDLORD AND TENANT-REYNATI V. COX.

This was an action to recover the rent of a ready fur-
nished house. Plaintiff produced a written agreement, and
defendant pleaded -that he could not occupy the house.
He stopped in it for one quarter and it was uninhabitable,
had defective drainage, which led to very bad smells in the
house, and the bedrooms were infested with bugs. •
His Honour ruled that not one of the defences was good
in law. It had been expressly decided that even if a house
were burnt down the tenant was liable in the rent.

Verdict for the plaintiff.
Defendant said he should appeal against this decision.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE,—This Day.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

WILFUL MURDER OF A CHILD BY ITS MOTHER.—Eliza-
both Sutor, about 23 years of age, formerly in service at 12,
Northwick-terrace, Notting-hill, was charged before Mr.
Tyrwhitt with the wilful murder of an infant female child,
of which she was delivered in Marylebone Workhouse on
the 17th of March.

Mr. Tubbs, assistant overseer, attended to watch the caso
on the part of the Board of Guardians of Marylebone.
Police-constable Charles Lloyd, 97 A, said—On Friday
last I went to Mount-street workhoise, and saw a child.
On its clothes was the name "E. Suter." I made inquiries,
and at Marylebone Workhouse found that a female of that
name had been confined there of a female child on the 17th
of March, but had left. I afterwards made further inquiries,
and this morning found the prisoner at Brompton. I.
told her I was a police-constable, and that I would
taken her on suspicion of murdering her child by drown-
ing it in the Serpentine. I also told her that she need not
say anything, but that what she did say would be used in
evidence against her on her trial. She cried, and said
every one was against her, and that she had made away
with it, and that it was as much as she could do to keep
from throwing herself into the water. She also said, in
answer to her sister-in-law, who asked her why she did
it, that a woman she took the child to would not have it,
so she made away with it.

By Mr. Tyrwhitt—She was living with her brother at
Ann's-place, Brompton.
_ _

Mr. Tyrwhitt—l shall remand the prisoner for a week,
when the other witnesses can attend.

Mr. Tubbs said—At the inquest the nurse would be able
to identify the child from particular marks on the forehead,
and that when the prisoner left tho workhouse it was at
her own request, and in opposition to the wishes of the
chairman of the board of guardians.
