SHERIFFS' COURT.
SERVANTGALISM.-SINGULAR AND IMPORTANT CASE.

DAVIS V. COBORNE.

This was an action to recover a month' wagess in lieu of
notice, in consequence of the summary dismissal of plain-
tiff without due cause.

It appeared that plaintiff is a servant-of-all-work, and
defendant keeps a public-house. Defendant had engaged
plaintiff for a month on trial. Plaintiff alleged that Mrs.
Osborne,required her to do the barmaid's washing. Now,
as plaintiff was not engaged to do this she refused, and
insisted upon having an understanding, instead of getting
which she was desired to leave directly.
Mrs. Osborne said that after plaintiff had been in her
service for three hours, she inquired somewhat rudely if
she were to do the barmaid's washing.. She was told that
she was engaged by defendant to do this work, and must
do it. Upon this plaintiff became very violent, and was
then summarily dismissed.
Plaintiff—l am not bound to do the barmaid's washing.
I won't work for a servant.

His Honour thought all the servants were mad. There
was an absurd feeling prevalent that it was derogatory to
work for a fellow-servant. After all, it was the master's
work. Plaintiff must be nonsuited.
Plaintiff—What am I to do now ?
His Honour—Go away, and be more careful.
Plaintiff—Then, if you call that justice, I don't.
TAYLOR V. SMITH.-IMPORTANT DECISION.

This was an action to recover £9-£sl2x. money had and
received, and £3 Bs. damage sustained through the non-
delivery of 10 dozen of brandy.

Mr. Beard, for defendant, said his client would consent
to a verdict for £5 125., and contended that plaintiff could
not sue for the money had and damage.
Mr. Jay, for plaintiff, said he might have gone for special
damage. He advised his client to take the £5 12s.
His Honour was of opinion that plaintiff could not sue
for the damage.
Plaintiff—l had sold the brandy at a profit, and will be
nonsai ted.

COHEN V. SAMPSON.-A CASE FOR THE LAW SOCIETY.

This was an action to recover 3s. 6d. money lent.

Mr. Davies, for defendant, put in the particulars of a
set-off.

Mr. Beard, for plaintiff, said they would need no comment.

Upon reading the particulars his Honour found them to
consist of charges for work done at the County Courts, such
as taking out summonses, &c.

His Honour—There are three items which involve penal-
ties of £.50. I shall keep this paLper and see what can be
done. You had better be careful, Mr. Sampson. The law
society are looking out. Plaintiff will have a verdict, with
costs.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS DA.Y.)

M ARLBO ROUGH-STREET.

EXTENSIVE ROBBERY AT A CHINA WAREHOUSE,.
Alex. Duncan and James Maguire, the former a carman
and the latter a driver in the employ of Messrs. W. J. and
G. Phillips, glass and china warehousemen, of 358 and
359, Oxford-street, were charged with stealing a largo
quantity of articles of china and glass, the property of their
employers.

From the evidence of Mr. W. J. Phillips it appeared
that, having reason to suspect that an extensive system of
plunder was being carried on by the prisoners, he commu-
nicated with the police at Vine-street, and in consequence
a detective named Joy was employed, and which led to the
apprehension of the prisoners and the discovery of a quan-
tity of property belonging to himself and partner.
Joy, 338 A, said on taking Duncan into custody, and
charging him with the robbery, he at first denied it, but
afterwards said he " had stolen several things, and was
sorry for it." On searching his lodgings at 7, Henry-
street, Hampstead-road, he found a large quantity of china
and glass, which was identified by the prosecutors, in the
third-floor room ; and on telling his wife that he had reason
to believe she had a large basketful of articles in the cellar
she denied it, but on his getting the key he there found the
basket crammed full of various articles of china and glass.
He afterwards, at his mother's lodgings, 4, Ville-street,
Camden-town, found a quantity of articles belonging to
the prosecutor ; and afterwards, on taking Maguire into
custody, and searching his lodgings, found a large quantity
of articles, consisting of china vases, glasses, &c. Maguire
at first denied it, but afterwards admitted it, and requested
that his wife might not be taken into custody.
Mr. Beadon remanded the prisoners for a week.
