MASSEY V. PAWLEY.

This was a claim for three days' work.
Plaintiff said he was a servant engaged by the hour.
Mr. Beard—You loft defendant's employment at a mo-
ment's notice.
Plaintiff—Yes. I got a better place.
Defendant—Plaintiff was a weekly servant, paid 185. re-
gularly.
Mr. Beard contended that as a weekly servant plaintiff
could not recover, having absented himself from his
work.

His Honour said it was important that labourers should
know that when they were engaged by the week they must
not absent themselves. Defendant was entitled to a
verdict.

IMPORTANT DECISION ON COMMISSION-HALL V.
BALLARD.

This was a claim for clothes supplied.

Mr. Buchanan stated that this was a claim for clothes
supplied to a sailor upon the recommendation and guarantee
of defendant.

Defendant admitted owing the debt, but submitted that
ho was entiled to 25 per cent. commission. _

Mr. Buchanan—You hale not pleaded a set-off. You
must bring another action if you have any grounds.
My client will tell his Honour that defendant made a profit
upon the clothes, and that the price charged was so low
that the amount would not bear a discount.

Defendant—lndeed, I made no profit. The sailor did
me, for ho went away and never paid. Plaintiff has fre-
quently allowed me and others 25 per cent.
Plaintiff—Yes, upon a good order and for cash.
his llonour—You must pay this debt, defendant. You
should have pleaded a set-of.
Verdict for plaintiff.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE-(TIIIS DAY.)

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

STEALING A MAJOR'S GOLD WATCH AT THE GALLIIRY
OF ILLUSTRATION.—Froderick Martin, 61, Sydney•street,
Bethnal-green, a weaver, was charged before Mr. Bingham
with stealing a gold watch of the value of £2O, the property
of Major Robert Boothby, of the Artillery, residing at 5,
Clarendon-place, Hyde-park-gardens.
Major Boothby said that at 20 minutes after 10 on the
previous evening he came out of the Gallery of Illustration
for the purpose of calling his mother's carriage, and having
waited a few minutes, there being a number of persons pre-
sent, he beckoned to the ladies, and at that moment felt a
tug at his chain, and on putting his hand to his chain found
that his watch was gone. Tho prisoner was close to him
at the time, and the nearest person. He observed the pri-
soner change colour, hesitate, and then walk away. He
then spoke to a constable, and the prisoner was taken into
custody. _ _ _

Sergeant Joy, 9 C, said he believed if the prisoner Wag
remanded ho should be able to show that ho was known,
though he was not certain that ho had been convicted.
The prisoner said he bad been into the Gallery of Illus-
tration to see the entertainment. He knew nothing of the
watch. lle was a weaver at Bethnal-green.

Joy said ho had soon the prisoner at the Bower Saloon,
and at the saloons in Whitechapel.
Mr. Bingham said ho would have inquiries made, and if
they were not satisfactory, would remand the prisoner till
Thursday next.

SPAIN.

The Spanish journals continue to take a cheerful
view of the war in Morocco, but they record no real
progress. The Iberia states that the Spanish troops
are to march upon Tetuan in the following order :
the main body is to march along the road that is
being cut, while General Prim with his corps is to
occupy the mountains to protect the flanks of the
army ; meanwhile the fleet is to proceed along the
coast to disperse by its fire any hostile force that
might present itself. The Spanish army occupies a
line three leagues in extent, with three redoubts and
other strong entrenchments. The Correspondancie,
in giving the text of several manuscript prayers to
Mahomet, which have been found upon the persons
of the Moors, states one of them contains 5,000
times the words—" God is merciful !" repeated
over and over agnin without any other sentence
whatever. A private letter from Madrid says .
"The commercial community of Cadiz has offered
the 44 millions of reals claimed by England. The
measure by which Ceuta is declared a free port is
prejudicial to the interests of Gibraltar. The army
of Africa is to be raised to 80,000 men, while
80,000 more, remaining in Spain, will form the
reserve; besides which, in case of necessity, the
Government might call out 80 battalions of provin-
cial militia. All the naval forces are concentrated
at Cadiz."

COUIVTRY MARKETS•

LIVERIT 0 L--DEc. 23.
The arrivals from Ireland and coastwise since Tuesday
last have been rather light. From foreign ports w 50
o have
received 1,248 quarters of wheat, 2,350 qrs of beans, 1,9
qrs of Indian corn, 157 sacks and 6,877 barrels of flour.
From Canada we have received 1,311 qrs of peas and 1,7.04
barrels of flour. The exports in the same time comprise
798 qrs of oats, 583 qrs of Indian corn, 418 sacks and 227
barrels of flour. The trade has been inactive during the
week, and the prices of all articles remain. unchanged.
We had a very thin attendance of millers and dealers.at
market this morning, and wheat met a fair consumptive
fi,fmaiill at no improvement in price, but more firmer than
r 1 uesday's trade. Flour was more salevble. Oats and
oatmeal a slow sale, but readily supported late quotations.
The amount of business transacted in Indian corn was rit•
ther limited. Beans declined 6d on previous rates.

WAKEFIELD—DEc. 23.
The show of wheat was fair, and there being a quiet,
market, the quotations remain about the same as at last
market. The business done in barley was steadY9 but

and other articles were all at previous prices.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.-(TIIIS DAY.)

SHERIFFS' COURT.
(Before Mr. Kerr.)
EMPLOYER AND EMPLOYED.-NO. I. THE CLERK.--GOLD.

SMITH V. lIYAMS.

This was an action to recover £5 for wages actually
earned and alleged to be due in March last.
Mr. Abbot, for the plaintiff, said that his client kid been
decoyed away from a, good situation by the defendant, who
agreed to pay him 40s. a week wages. Plaintiff entered the
s3rvice, and acted for two weeks and a half, but finding
that he could get no money he loft, and brought the present
action.

Plaintiff was called, and deposed to the above statement.
Mr. Beard (producing a piece of paper)—ls that your
handwriting, plaintiff ?

Plaintiff—Yes.
Mr. Beard—Your Honour will see that that document
is an I 0 U given to defendant by the plaintiff in April
last. Upon that I 0 U he has been sued, and judgment
recovered; and, in spite, he comes here with this action
against us. Your Honour will tell him that such actions
should not be brought.
His Honour (reading)--Why, plaintiff, you admit owing
in April, after the alleged accruing of your claim, to Mr.
Hyams, £3 18s. Oh, Mr. Abbot, you cannot carry the
case further.

Verdict for defendant, -with costs.
NO. lI.—TITS BARMAN.—JEFstrr V. NRWBY.

This was a claim for a month's wages in lieu of notice.
Plaintiff is a barman and defendant a publican, and plain-
tiff stated that ho agreed for £22 per annum, a month's no-
tice on either side. Plaintiff entered the service on the
23d November, and was discharged by the defendant on the
4th of the present month.

Mr. Beard (for defendant)—What did plaintiff (Newby)
discharge you for ?
Plaintiff—He made a false accusation against me. He
accused me of taking money. If he did see me coming
from the till, it was only in the ordinary course of my
duties.

Mr. Beard—Defendant's impression is that plaintiff ob
tained the situation by a false character, and by imposing
on the Licensed Victuallers' Protection Association.

His Honour—You cannot expect me to try him for that
now.

Mr. Beard—No.. Defendant will give you his version of
the history, after which your honour will, I am sure, give
him a verdict.

Defendant then said that, soon after plaintiff was engaged,
ho observed a strange man come to the house. He would
not allow any one to serve him but the plaintiff, and wit-
ness had missed money.

Mr. Beard—And you discharged him immediately
His Honour—lx all cases the first month is only on trial,
and if defendant was not satisfied he could discharge plain-
tiff, or rice versa.
Verdict for defendant.

the land is a sufficient guarantee.
They beg to call particular attention to their pure Tonic
Wines, as being so valuable to Invalids and persons of weak
stomach s.
A sample case, containing three full-sized wino bottles,
will be forwarded to any address on receipt of P. 0.0. for 6s.
6d., or a dozen for 245.
It is a well-known fact that impure and adulterated wines
are the greatest foes to health, producing acidity in the
stomach, and debilitating the digestive organs, while pure
wines wilt accelerate the digestive powers, invigorating,
strengthening, and bracing the nervous system.
Their Tonic Wine is admitted to be most essential to in-
valids, both old and young, and should never be absent from
the homes of the weak and sickly. Its properties are duly
acknowledged and appreciated by the leading men of the
faculty, both at home and abroad.
To prevent imposition each bottle is sealed with the name
of the firm.
All orders to be made payable to HENRY BURROWS.

THE DEATH OF CAPTAIN BROWN.

(From the British Standard.)
All the hopes entertained even of a respite for
" Old. Blown" have proved. abortive. The Slave
Powers do not deal in mitigated vengeance. Not
only do they not know anything of pardon for anti-
slavery
offences, but deprecate the postponement of
the infliction of the penalties with which they visit
those who dare to mutter an accent against their
inhuman system. The present occasion has been sig-
nalised. by their ferocious promptitude. Governor
Wise is a fit magistrate for the Virginians. Whips,
chains, blooSionnds, death, and destruction arc
among the most delightful objects that present
themselves to his vision. We do not say that the
governor is worse than the law ; we bring against
him no charge of arbitrary infliction ; we only say
that he is a worthy minister of the cruel and san-
guinary code of Slavedom.
The arrest, condemnation, and execution of Brown
have served to raise the Free States to an unusual
pitch of humane and righteous indignation. Philan-
thropists, public speakers, the conductors of the
press, have all vied in their expressions of wrath
and disgust, and in their fervent hopes that the life
of the.good, although, viewed in a legal light, err-
ing man, might be spared. So great has been the
feeling called forth by the tragical event, that even
ladies have seized the pen, and in wielding it have
reflected great honour at once on the intellect and
humanity of their sex. Some have addressed Brown
himself in terms worthy of the age of martyrdom; and
others have directly addressed themselves to Gover-
nor Wise. Wehave before us aletter from Mrs: L. M.
Child, which would have done no discredit to the
tongue or the pen of Daniel Webster in the days of
his true glory. In that most masterly—we might
almost say masculine—epistle we have an' acute ex-
amination of the whole question. Mrs. Child, for
energy and effort, for many years past, has put to
shame most of her male contemporaries. She has
lost no opportunity of bearing her noble and. most
womanly testimony against the system, and sum-
moning her countrymen to the battle of abolition,
but never before did she reveal superior capabilities.

SOLDIERS.

We are now treading OR the soil of Africa. In
wars of invasion every day's march is a conquest,
and resistance in battle is victory. Let us never
retreat, never press forward rashly, but always to-
gether. Let us receive the shock of the enemy's
cavalry with the immovability of a fortress vomit-
ing fire, that he may turn and fly, and let us return
with our rifles the attack of his infantry, which is
ignorant of the use of a cartridge. Let us na,v,h
steadily and sleep lightly—the first to enable to
arrive without fatigue, and the second that we may
awake ready to find each one his post, his front,
and his aim. Let the conquered be spared, the wo-
men respected, the children succoured, and let, us

not stain our conduct with vile deeds of robbery and
plunder. In order to conquer, in Africa as in the
whole world, we have only to display more valour
and more generosity than our opponents. In this
matter our campaign will be fortunate in its com-
mencement and secure in its results. We are now
beginning. Let each one answer for himself as I
answer for you all.

TELEGRAPH TO INDIA.

We understand that five tenPrs were sent in to
Government for the manufacture of the cable in-
tended for submersion between Falmouth and Gib-
raltar, the one accepted being that of Messrs. Glass,
Elliot, and Co., as already stated. The conducting
wire is described as the largest ever made; one half
of it has already been covered by the Gutta Percha
Company, and it is stated that Messrs. Glass, Elliot,
and Co., will commence the manufacture of the outer
wire covering in January next, and that the cable
will probably be laid about July. It seems to be
understood that Government contemplate ultimately
extending the line to Malta and Alexandria, there-
by forming a connection with the system of the
Red Sea Telegraph Company, and so completing
the communication with India. The delays which
now occur OR the Continent in the transmission of
messages between Malta and this country testify to
the importance of a new and independent line.
We are informed that fresh attempts will be made
next summer to lay a cable between Candis, and
Alexandria, thus affording the choice of another
route.—Daily News.
