WILLS AND BEQUESTS.—The will of Henry J. S.
Selfe, Esq., J.P., magistrate of the Westminster Police-
court, was proved in London, on the Bth instant, under
£lO,OOO personalty, the executors being the relict and G.
K. Rickards, Esq., of Cleveland-square. He confirms the
settlement made on his marriage, and leaves his wife a
life interest in his estates in this country and New
Zealand, or in any other colonies, and appoints her resi-
duary legatee. To each of his seven children, on their
attaining 21, he leaves, with what they may have pre-
viously received, £2,000.
INFRINGEMENT OF THE CONTAGIOUS DISEASES
A paid agent of the opponents of the Contagious Diseases
Acts, named John Marshall, was summoned at
the Plymouth Guildhall for having resisted two
officers of the metropolitan police in the exe-
cution of their duty, and for inciting Sarah
Mack, a woman of ill-fame, to resist going to the Royal
Albert Hospital. Mr. Eastlake prosecuted on behalf of
the Admiralty. The woman was in custody of the police,
when she was met by Marshall, who told her not to go,
and threatened to " knock the police down." Up to that
time the woman had gone on quietly, but she now resisted,
and the defendant was taken in charge by order of
Inspector Anniss. The magistrates considered the
case proved, and referring to their decision in the case of
Mrs. King, who was fined £5 on a similar charge about
two months since, that in future the power of imprison-
ment would be enforced in all such cases, sent Marshall
to prison for one month without the option of paying a
fine. Marshall is employed by the opponents of the Con-
tagious Diseases Acts as an agent at a guinea a week.
