LAMBETH.

A NEW WAY OF RECOVERING A DEBT.—OR Friday
James Smith, who described himself as the sweeper of the
crossing from Ludgate-hill to Waithman's corner, Fleet-
street, was brought before Mr. Norton, upon the following
novel charge :—Mr. Thomas Parker, jun., of No. 8, Ivy Cot-
tage, Bishop's-walk, Lambeth, solicitor, deposed that on his
getting up that morning, he saw the prisoner walking up
and down in front of his house with a placard on his shoulder,
and a crowd of people about him, who were throwing stones
at his windows. He requested the prisoner to go about his
business, but he refused, and kept walking up and down the
footway, causing a considerable crowd to assemble. The pla-
card was as follows : "Waiting for l/. 13s. 6d., for 12 bottles of
wine, or the wine back, from Mr. Thomas Parker, jun., solici-
tor, 8, Ivy Cottage, Bishop's-walk." The witness further said,
that some short time ago he had received from Mr. Sparrow,
wine-merchant, of No. 8 Bridge-street, Blackfriars, half a
dozen of port and half a dozen of sherry, He admitted that
Mr. Sparrow might have sent several times for the amount of
the wine. _ _

Cross-examined by the prisoner—How long have you bad
the wine? Mr. Parker—What has that to do with it? You
are a most impudent fellow.
Prisoner—Very likely. But how long have you had the
wine ? Mr. Parker :—How long? why it may be three or
four weeks. _

Prisoner—And now often has the payment been called
for? Mr. Parker—Why it may be four or live times; but,
your Worship, however often it may be, I'm not to be bullied
into payment in this way.
Mr. NORTON —I must say that it is a most extraordinary
way of collecting debts.
Prisoner—Then, sir, they call me "Jack, the sweeper," and
I have swept Waithman's crossing for many years. This
morning Mr. Sparrow's porter came to me and asked if I had
any objection to earn a shilling, and I told him not, as I pick
up but little at the crossing in dry weather. I then went to
Mr. Sparrow, and I was sent with the placard to walk up
and down before Mr. Parker's house, but I did not know that
I was doing wrong, as I cannot read or write, and did not
know what was on the placard.
Mr. NORTON observed that the prisoner had been guilty of
a nuisance under the Act of Parliament, and convicted him in
a penalty of 10s., or in default of payment to ten days' im-
prisonment.
After Come time the 10s. was paid, and he was discharged.

REPRESENTATION OF SUNDERLAND.—It is currently
reported that in case of a dissolution of Parliament Sir
James Duke will vacate Boston, and offer himself for Sun-
derland, in opposition to Mr. Hudson.—Newcastle Advertiser.
[ADVERTISEMENT.]—The Gentleman's Real Head
of Hair, or Invisible Ventilating Peruke, is so close a resem-
blance to nature as to defy detection ; and to enable anv gen-
tleman to see the effect, a large assortment is always kept for
inspection, any one of which, if approved of, saves the purchaser
both time and trouble. These splendid specimens of the per-
ruquean art, superior to anything to be obtained elsewhere,
either in Paris or London, have only to be seen to be admired,
and are the sole invention of Ross and Sons, 119 and 120,
Bishopsgate-street, London. N.B. Splendid hair-cutting
apartments on the ground-floor, the whole of the walls being
fined with looking-glass a la mode de Paris.

[ADVERTISEMENT.]—The opinion of Dr. Charles C.
Keane, of Bermuda, as to the extraordinary efficacy of Holloway's
Ointment and Pills in the cure of old ulcers and sores. The doc' or
expresses himself thus
I thought but little of Holloway's Pills
at one time, but I was induced to send to Halifax, Nova Scotia, to
one of his agents, for two dozen pots and boxes, the effects of which
on some of my patients are astonishing. oil standing sores and
ulcers vanishe4 Itiy their use as if by magic, so that for the future I
am determined to contmue to use them. (Signed) .` Cussa.Es C.
