WE STMIA'S 7'E R.

Thomas Mackay, the keeper of a coffee-shop at
42, Lower George-street, Chelsea, was charged with
permitting a number of boys to gamble at his house
on the evening of Sunday week.
In consequence of some private information which
had been received upon the subject, Sergeant Loom,
11 B, and a constable entered the front room or shop
on the evening in question, in plain clothes, when a
woman who passes as the defendant's wife opened the
door of a back room, in which there were fifceen boys
assembled, and called out " Bays, boys, here's the
police."
The officers entered, and heard one boy, at
a table round which six were selted, looking at four
others playing at dominoef, make a bet of a penny
with another upon the game, and there were several
deposits of halfpence on the table. At a second table,
occupied by five others, two were busily engaged
playing at shove halfpenny. The woman before
spoken of evidently knew Loom, as she called after
him by name on his leaving the house.
The defendant, who exhibited a strong di,position
to bully the.sergeant, flatly denied the charge, and
called three youths and a man as witnesses, two out
of the former of whom were recognized by the police
as bad characters, who had been summarily con-
victed. Their evidence was altogether of a must
equivocal and unsatisfactory character.

Mr. BURRELL said he believed the testimony of the
offi:ers, and fined the defendant 31. As he stated
that he was unable to pay the fine he was committed
for a month.

Mr. Bunnur.v. received, amongst other applications
for relief, the following evidently written by a well-
educated person :
"Sir,—Necessity compells me to make this humble
appeal to you. lam a married man, with a family of
four young children &pending upon rite fir support,
but through the length of time I have been unemployed,
we are reduce' to deep distress. I have disposed of
every article of furniture, apparel, &c., and am in
dread of being turned into the street. God only
knows what will he the result. I humbly beg your
Worship tray consider oar unfortunate situa'Aun and
bestow your charity upon us, fur which I shall ever Lel
gran ful.
"I remain, your Worship's most humble servant,
HENRY DALTON."

"P.S. If your Worship will think tit to send your
visitor to my dwelling, you will find my application is
not without cause."
Knowland, 141 8., one of the summoning-officers
of the court, having made inquiries of the neighbours
and visited applicant's place by direction of the ma-
gistrate, represented it as a truly necessitous and very
deserving case, the poor people being so destitute
that, although they had a bed and bedstead, they had
scarcely an article to cover them.
Mr. BIJRRELL directed that 103. should be given to
the poor family from the poor-box.
8 o HIV ARK.

- - Mr. Hagan, an extensive market-gardener and
farmer at Retherhithe, was summoned before Mr.
Jardine for refusing to pay 2., the amount of toll fur
two of his waggons, loaded with tan, passing through
the St. James's toll-gate, Bermondsey.
Mr. L tvy attended on behalf of Waters, the toll-
collector, and Mr. Brandon, of Rotherhithe, for the
defendant.

The court was crowded with market-gardeners,
Stc., anxious to hear the decision in the case.

Evidence as to the demand of the toll, and the re-
fus:4l to pay, on the ground that it was manure being
conveyed to the defendant's grounds, having been
gone into,

Mr. Levy submitted that tan was not manure ac-
cording to the meaning of the provisions of the Acts
of Parliament regulating toll-gates, and consequently
it was liable to pay toll. The case was one of con-
siderable importance to the trustees, as a great quantity
of tan was conveyed from the Bermondsey tan-yards
for many purposes connected with agriculture.
Mr. Brandon, in answer to the complaint, con-
tended that tan was now extensively used by agricul-
turists and market-gardeners as manure, and he
called several market-gardeners having extensive
grounds, who proved that they were in the habit ( f
using large quantities of tan amongst dung for agri-
cultural purposes. It was the best manure that could
be used, especially in forcing-houses. They had been
on Mr. Hagan's land and had snti tan dug in
trenches among the land with no other manure or
ingredient.
Mr. JARDINE said he had carefully looked over the
Acts of Parliament alluded to by Mr. Levy, and he
was of opinion that tan was exempt from toll, conse
quently he must dismiss she summ.ns.
