CURIOUS CASE.
A curious case was submitted, a Jew days ego, to the
Tribunal of Correctional Police of Saint Lo. M. Ds.
roSzourt, mayor of Tribehou, and an extensive farmer,
well known in the Parisian market as the principal pro-
ducer of the famous " butter of Isigny," laid a com-
plaint against two of his neighbours, named Chardin and
Le Bas, and against six females, for having during the
last four years poisoned his milk, whereby it became
impossible for him to produce butter of good quality.
ll,Lpeated complaints of his butter having been made
by his agents at Paris, M. Dan4aourt caused his ponds
to be cleared out, his fields to be examined, his milk-
women and labourers to be repeatedly changed, but
though by these means he succeeded for a short time in
getting good milk, in a few weeks it became as bad as
ever. All his efforts to discover the reason of this
failed until recently, when one of his milkwomen con-
fessed that she had been bribed by a woman named De-
visdes to put a mixture into the milk to corrupt it.
This mixture, it appeared, consisted of urine, sulphur,
hemlock, tansy, and other things. On investigation, it
turned out that this woman had been employed by
Chardin and Le Bas, M. Dtur,6.:curt'a rivals in trade,
and bitter adversaries in politics, and their object was, if
possible, to ruin him. The Tribunal condemned
Chardin to fivo years' imprisonment, and 100 f. fine;
Le 11118 to two yearn' imprisonment, and 50£ fine; the
woman Devisdes to four years Imprisonment, and 501.
fine, and five other women who had been in M. Dame-
court's service, and had been bribed by Devisdes to
adulterate the milk, were sentenced to periods of im-
prisonment, varying from six months to two years.
Chsrdin was besides ordered to pay 4,000 f. damages, and
Le Bas and Dovisdes 1,0001. each.
