CITY COURT OF SEWERS;
Yesterday a court was held, Mr. Deputy peacock
,he chair.
Mr. Tickner, the second clerk, having read the
minutes of the last court. the inspectors presented their
respective reports for the last week, which gave ti most
favourable accouet of the scavengers' work iu the varioue
districts.
A deputation from the inhabitants of the war el of Fat
riegden Within eaited upon the court for the
purpose
of complaining of the appearance of a large portable
urinal at the west end of Cht apside, and requesting that
the magistrates would cause its immediate removal from
its pieeent lucelity 83 a much greater nuisance than any
of those which it was intended to supersede. The
curiosity excited amongst thi female population by OQ.
unusual au object, wince looked like a monster of the
omnibus kind, stet WAS gstelily panted, seemed to be
the priucipil objection to the introduction of the stranger
some of the gentlemen of the deputation having been
actually put to the blush several .times in the course of
the morning upon being asked by. ladies, who popped
their heads into the &bops, " Pray, what is that?"
A discussion of some length took place upon the
question of the immediate removal of the bulky ma-
chine, the introduction of which had been sanctioned by
the court itself as ant xperiment, mad it was argued by
those whose delicacy seemed to be moat excitable,. that
the model which had swan exhibited at a former court,
when the permission of the membors was solicited and
obtained, was by no means copied in the article itself,
the one being excessively modest and unobtlusive, and
the otner being. as a commissioner observed, carried out
upon a pr,nctide of the "zest glaring, attracdvee and
offensive description."
Upon the other side it was contended that the curiosity
would very soon be at an end, that so slight an objection
would naturally vanise altogctfier before the great argu-
ment of public utility; competent judges of which were
crowding the metropolis every day from all parts of the
world. Teat public decency would be greatly promoted
by an inventioo which had been suecessfully tested in
other great cities, and that before the court pronounced
their condemnation, they should quietly watch the pro-
cess of a little experience. Allusion was made to a ye-
ll:elk+ of a sitni;ar kind, which was placed iu King Wil-
liam-street, where it was considered by some members{
es a very w4,lcome visitor.
Uirinistely the matter was referred to a committee
wite dit'eotions to repore—The court then adjourned.

The Rev. Professor Smith bad an interview with Earl
Grey yesterday at the Co!onial,office.

" THERE'S MANY
A SLIP BETWEEN THE Cur
•ND TIIE In a border Tillage not many miles dis-
love never runs
tant, the truth cf the old saving, that "the course of true
smooth," was lately practically illustrated.
A veteran warrior, who is now "in tne sfra and yellow leaf"
winters have silvered his flowing locka and funowed hi/
noble brow- and who fought under the immortal bkore, 011
COrtllltlied fatal field,
faithfully paid his addresses to a buxom
dame, " fat, fair, and forty," for two years, which were reci-
procated in such a manner as to make the old man'a hart
to leap for joy. Having thus made a conquest of the affec-
tions of his " lady love, the veteran gallantly popped-the
question" - bear teat, ye bachelors! and go and.do ye lilts-,
wi6e—was accep. ed ; the names were given in for the procla-
mation of the banns, and the day might have been fixed, for
au4ht we know, which would have made them one—but the
voice of the village lose so high and so loud in condemnation
of their union, that the heart of the fair one begAn to faint
and fail, the names were withdrawn, and our hero is now
mourning over the inconstant 'y of the "tickle fair," and the
interference of the inhabitants, --Berwick Warder.
