CHAPMAN V. WILSON.

This was a judgment summons, and Mr. Buchanan, for
plaintiff, said it arose from a debt due for rent.
Defendant's representative stated that plaintiff had turned
the family out of his house when Mrs. Wilson was near her
confinement, and it made her very ill. He agreed to give
defendant three weeks' notice, but, instead of doing so, he
turned them out in a moment.

Mr. Buchanan—You were a weekly tenant, and it was
not likely plaintiff would give a longer notice than usual ;
but as you state that you are very badly off, on behalf
of my client I will consent to a verdict of 2s. 6d. per week..
Order accordingly.

MODERN ADVERTISING.-BRADFIELD V. HART.
This was a summons to recover £l4 for bills posted in
140 omnibuses.

Mr. Buchanan stated that plaintiff was the well-known
advertisement agent, and he had agreed to post defendant's
bills in 140 omnibuses at ls. per omnibus. Plaintiff had
agreed to insert the advertisements at 9d. per 'bus provided
defendant would sign a six months' older. As defendant
had not signed the order, plaintiff went upon the Is. con-
tract.

Evidence having been called in support of this statement,
his Honour gave plaintiff a short order.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS

MANSION-HOUSE.
Robert Gardner, Waterloo-road, was charged under the
following circumstances :

Mr. Thos. Grosse, publican, 208, Upper Thames-street,
was sworn, and said that the prisoner, on Tuesday, 29th
August last, applied to him and asked permission to refer
to his house in an advertisement he was to put in the
Morning Advertiser for a situation, which witness granted.
Next day the prisoner and Logan, who was committed for
trial yesterday, called on him and showed him a different
advertisement in the Aron ning Advertiser, wanting
400 workmen at 20s. and 30s. per week, to work at a new
invention. The witness gave the same evidence as to the
receipt of 13 letters and postage stamps as that which he
gave against Logan yesterday. The prisoner called and
received several of the letters. The prisoner was charged
with conspiracy to cheat and defraud the public by false
and fraudulent pretences.

Mrs. Jane Hutton, wife of Mr. Richard Hutton, car-
penter, Waterloo-road, and her step-daughter, Ellen
Scoblie, or Hutton, were sworn and examined, and gave,
the same evidence as against Logan yesterday. She wrote
a letter to the address, enclosing two penny postage
stamps, and received no reply.
Police-constable Thomas Smart, 411, saw the prisoner
and Logan enter Mr. Grosse's public-house. He appre-
hended the prisoner in Thames-street yesterday afternoon
between two and three o'clock, and asked him if he was
aware that Logan was in custody, and he said "No," he
was waiting for him ; and on taking him to the station-
house and searching him, witness found a letter addressed
to the above address, with his private mark upon it,
enclosing several postage stamps. Witness also
found a list, which he produced, of letters re-
ceived in answer to the advertisement. Also
a receipt for the letters from Mr. Grosse and a receipt
from Logan to him, with a copy of the _Morning Advertiser
containing the advertisement. He gave an address to the
Waterloo-road, which witness could not find. Ho was
formerly a photographic artist, and had a piece of paper in
front of his shirt to imitate a shirt front when taken into
custody.
The Lord Mayor committed the prisoner for trial on the
same charge of fraud and conspiracy
as against Logan
yesterday.
The prisoner said if Logan was committed any person
applying for a situation might also be committed. If there
was any fraud committed, the prisoner said he was guilty
of the fraud ; Logan was an innocent party and a sufferer
by being imposed upon by him.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.
ROBBERY BY A CLERK OF MESSRS. NlCOLL'S.—Charles
Alfred Morton, of 40, Gresham-street, clerk, was charged
before Mr. Bingham with stealing, on the 15th August,
the sum of £3 13s. 6d., the moneys of Henry John and
Donald Nicoll, the well-known clothiers of Regent-street.
Mr. Wm. Hayes, foreman to the prosecutors, said the
prisoner was in the employ of the firm as a clerk, and on
the 13th of August last he (the prisoner) received the sum
of £3 13s Gd., the moneys of Messrs. Nicoll, of the cashier,
to pay to Mr. Day, but that gentleman calling on the 29th
of August, it was ascertained that the money had not been
paid.
John Wing, cashier to Messrs. Nicoll, proved giving the
prisoner, on the 13th of August, the amount in question,
which he was to pay to Mr. Day, of Lowndes-street, Bel-
grave-square.
The prisoner, a respectable •looking young man, said he
certainly had the money. and did not intend to abscond,
having paid in the same day about £5O. He wished to
throw himself upon the mercy of the prosecutors and the
court.

Mr. Bingham said he should at all events remand the
prisoner for a week, and he was accordingly remanded.

GOOD-NATURE OF THE NEWFOUNDLAND DOG.—
"As is the case with most of the large dogs, the New-
foundland permits the lesser dogs to take all kinds of liber-
ties without showing the least resentment ; and if it is
worried or pestered by some forward puppy, looks down
with calm contempt, and passes on its way. Sometimes the
little conceited animal presumes upon the dignified compo-
sure of the Newfoundland dog, and, in that case, is sure
to receive some quaint punishment for its insolence. The
story of the big dog, that dropped the little dog into the
water, and then rescued it from drowning, is so well
known that it needs but a passing reference. But I know
of a dog, belonging to one of my friends, which behaved
in a very similar manner. Being provoked beyond all en-
durance by the continued annoyance, it took the little tor-
mentor in its mouth, swam well out to sea, dropped it in
the water, and swam back again. Another of these animals,
belonging to a workman, was attacked by a small and pug-
nacious bull-dog, which sprang upon the unoffen,Jin&
canine giant, and, after the manner of bull-dogs, `pinned
him by the nose,' and there hung, in spite of all endeavours
to shake it off. However, the big dog happened to be a
clever one, and spying a pailful of Wing tar, he bolted
towards it, and deliberately lowered his foe into the hot and
viscous material. The bull-dog had never calculated on
such a reception, and made its escape 0 fast as it could
run, bearing with it a scalding memento of the occasion.
