fectly satisfied with the accounts they passed.

WHITECHAPEL COUNTY COURT.
GREGORY V. WELCH.

This was an action brought to recover the sum of
141. Bs. for goods sold and delivered.
Mr. Sidney, the solicitor, of Hatton-garden; said that
his client, the plaintiff, is a licensed victualler, and
sought to recover the amount named, for necessaries
supplied to the defendant, a commercial traveller, and
he contended that if he proved that. the charges were
reasonable, and gave evidence of the delivery, he
should be entitled to a verdict for the full amount. The
Learned Gentleman then called Emma Martin, the bar-
maid, who had kept the account against the defendant,
and the waiter, who .had attended- on him; and they
having given evidence to that effect,
The worthy JUDGE asked if there was any defence?
The defendant's SOLICITOR said that his answer was
the " Tippling Act," which excluded a person from
suing for more than 20s. worth of spirits, which must
be consumed on the premises of a tavern keeper at one
time or sitting. In the plaintiff's demand there were
items, " Grog, grog," to the amount of 94 75.; there-
fore he would submit that that sum must, at all events,
be scratched from the bill.

Mr. SIDNEY replied that his friend was too late to call
into his aid that Act. The defendant should have filed
that plea in court several days ago.
The JUDGE remarked that Mr. Sidney was quite
right, and immediately awarded the plaintiff tho whole of
his claim and costs.

FATAL STEAM BOAT ACClDENT.—Yesterday after-
noon, while the Ant steamer was on her passage from
Dyers'-hall-wharf' to the Ivy bridge-lane Adelphi,
a boy, about twelve or fourteen years of age, who was
sitting on the rail in the after part of the vessel, fell
overboard. The order to ease the vessel was imme-
diately given and obeyed, and preparations were being
made to lower a rope or fender .for the boy to lay hold
of (the steamer carrying no boat), when a very active
waterman, named lticharl Tisdoll, who was rowing a
fare across the river in his wherry, rowed towards the
spot, add attempted to save the boy. He seized his cap,
and put his arm down in expectation of grasping him,
bat did not succeed in his efforts. The deceased's cap,
a black cloth Oiler remains in the possession of Tisdell,
and may probably lead to the identity of the body, when
it is found.
