WESTMINSTER.
IMPORTANT TO LANDLORDS.—A very respectable
looking woman came before Mr. Selfe and solicited
his advice under the following circumstances :
Applicant said that the occasion that brought her
there was of a very annoying and offensive charac-
ter. Some time ago a man of creditable appear-
ance came to her house, and having made the neces-
sary inquiries respecting some apartments she had
to let, said that he wished to have them for a friend
and his wife, who were daily expected from York-
shire. Supposing, from all the inquiries she made,
that they were respectable people she received them,
but to her great vexation soon discovered that the
parties were not married, and that the woman was
a person of immoral habits and pursuits, who was
nightly receiving visitors under such circumstances
as to injure the fair fame of her house.
Mr. Selfe—You should get rid of them.
Applicant—l have tried, but they won't go, and
are very impudent. It's a shocking thing for me.
What am I to do ?
Mr. Selfe—Get rid of them.
Applicant—They won't take warning to leave ;
they won't go.
Mr. Selfe—Turn them out.
Applicant—Can I?,
Mr. Selfe—Certainly.
Applicant—lt's quite frightful. We can't get
our natural rest. They are in and out all hours of

the night.
Mr. Selfe—Close your door, and don't admit
them. Under the circumstances you have stated
you have a perfect right to keep them out.
Applicant was very thankful.

times or more, and was once convicted for assault-
ing a London Dock constable and attempting to

for disabling a police-constable. He has since then
been repeatedly in custody for assaults and drunk-
enness and breaches of the peace. He has been
taken out of Whitechapel, Shadwell, and Stepney
church-yards at midnight, singing melancholy
dir-es,
and his excuse was that he was only singing
over his father's grave " Father, come home,"
although it has not been decided iu what cemetery
his father was buried. Last night he was intoxi-
emaatendanngdmfoolnloey. following two sailors, of whom he was de-

seamen complained to Guilfoyle, who interfered,
and ordered the prisoner about his business. lle

ground. Guilfoyle soon arrested the prisoner, who

to the assistance of Guilfoyle, and was also
struck. The policemen soon overpowered the
ruffian, and took him into custody. The prisoner

seven days' imprisonment by Mr. Lushington. Ho

tious article on his brutality iu the columns of
Punch, said be he was a strong and powerful

disorderly ruffian, who had given the police and
others great trouble. He sentenced the prisoner to
one month's imprisonment and hard labour.
