A SELF-STYLED " GENTLEMAN."—Iicnry Ed-
wards, a man about 30 years of age, was charged
with creating a great disturbance at the house of
his mother, 31, Oakley-street, Chelsea, and he was
further charged upon a warrant which had beet
issued against him.

Mr. Smyth, solicitor for the complainant, stated
that defendant was in the habit of visiting at his
mother's house, and when he did so was guilty of
the greatest misconduct. He was there only a short
time ago and broke £4O worth of furniture. He
repeated his visit on the day following, and threat-
ened to murder his mother. • He time last night
again, jumped over the area railings, and used the
most frightful language and threats.
Frederick Edward Mills, a man between 30 and
40 years of age, was put into the witness-box, and
on being asked to describe himself, said that he was
a retired butcher,whose father had died and left him
property, and therefore described himself as a gen-
tleman. The complainant lodged at 31, Oakley-
street, and defendant came there on Sunday week,
smashed a chest of drawers, and, flourishing a thick
stick, threatened him in the most serious way, and
afterwards said he would murder the whole lot and
stab a policeman who was called.
Mr. Bury Hutchinson, for the defence—Are you
his brother-in-law ?
Complainant—Yes.

Mr. Selfe—Are you married to his sister ?
Complainant—No, I am not.
Defendant—Are you not living with my sister,
girl of the age of 17, ender my mother's roof ?
Compl kinant—l es.
_ _

Defendant—She has a child by you, has she not
Complainant—Yes.

Defendant—Have you not a wife living ?
Complainant—Yes but there is a divorce pond
ing every day..

Mr. Selfe—And you call yourself a gentleman.
Complainant—Yes.
Mr. Selfe—Then I tQg you will drop that style
and take and call yourself an ex-butcher.
The case was adjourned upon bail for the ap-
pearance of the mother.

FASHIONS FOR JUNE.

Although the robe fourreau and the short cos-
tume appear to be the styles, par excellence, of the
present season, they are made with such various mo-
difications that perhaps it will not be difficult to
adapt them to most tastes. For example the short
dresses arc made in all possible styles. Short skirt
over one to match, or of a contrasting colour ;
skirt caught up by bows or rosettes; skirt
plaited up square at the sides ; tunic
rounded and short in front, open at the sides, and
longer and square at the back ; long skirt, but so
caught up as to appear tied ; skirt tied up at the back
and sides ;in brief, skirts drawn up to various
heights and in various ways, or short, open, &c.
The paletot matching the dress is very generally
worn with these dresses. Some of the prettiest of
these costumes are made of black taffetas, the bot-
tom trimmed round with a double bias of green,
blue, or violet ; the under skirt having two or three
narrow flounces, and the short black paletot with a
bias of piping to match. The " Greek" and "Jewess"
sleeves are coming more and more in favour ;
they are more especially suitable for dresses of a
rich material. The " Greek " sleeve is open
quite to the top of the arm. and cut square.
The " Jewess" is a wide open sleeve, but
made round, and slightly pointed. They are both
made very long. To the robe fourreau, with
its long train, tunics are sometimes added, or the
front of the dress is made of a different colour to
the other part of the robe,- forming a tablier or plas-
tron ; in the latter the trimming is generally placed
on the body in the form of a Spanish vest, round in
front and quite short at the back. Blue, maize, and
bouton d'or are, perhaps, the favourite calours just
now, but many dresses are of a blue-grey or a pearl-
grey. Embroidery of silk and beads is very much
also plaits of silk, either match-

VICTORIA CLUE; BETTING.
Though many members were abeent in France
a fair muster assembled, and speculation took a
somewhat, extended range. For the Grand Prize
of Paris Patrician was in good demand at 2 to 1,
while I)'Estournel at half a point more was
backed, there being, however, a strong disposition
to lay against the latter ; neither of the others
were in anything like requsl-., though the prices
indicated below were accepted to small amounts.
Zenobia was in most force for the Ascot Stakes,
for which, however, several others were supported,
while the Hunt Cup Scramble was ventured on as
below, and the name of Lady Vane being mentioned
for the Northumberland Plate, found an eager
layer, who, seeming to know something, after
aging 100 to -10 repeated the bet some ax

times. Achievement was only named for tba
Leger, the following being the closing prices :
