JUSTICE AT LANCASTER.—On Saturday a young
man, named Liver, was brought before the county
justices at Lancaster, charged with entering a field
to gather mushrooms, and doing damage to the
amount of a penny. A witness was called to prove
that the lad was in a certain field, picking up
mushrooms, twenty yards from the field gate.
The accused denied that he had been in prose-
cutor's field, and called a witness, who swore that
he had not been farther than two or three yards
from the gate. The magistrates, however, sen-
tenced the lad to fourteen days' imprisonment in
Lancaster Castle. A fortnight ago a farmer was
brought before the same bench, charged with as-
saulting a boy who had been gathering mushrooms
in his field. The lad bore traces of the violent
treatment he had received—his face was severely
bruised, and both his arms swollen with blows from
a heavy stick, and it was proved that the poor lad
was found in the lane, weak and almost unable to
walk from the effects of the assault. The same
bench that sent a youth to prison for damaging a
field to the amount of one penny tined the farmer
one shilling for a violent and—as the chairman de-
scribed it—unjustifiable assault. After the farmer
got his summons for the assault, he took out an-
other against the lad, charging him with damag-
ing a fence, and the lad had to pay one shilling
and costs, in addition to the severe thrashing he
got.
BRIGANDS ENTRAPPED.—The Giornale di Roma
says :—" Beneath Verdi, a Pontifical town built
like an eagle's nest on the summit of a sterile
mountain, extends the estate, admirably cultivated,
of a Roman noble. The proprietor having been
summoned by the brigands to send 4,000 scudi
(20,000 f.), to a certain spot, applied for the pro-
tection of the gendarmery. An arrangement was
made that a vice-brigadier, dressed as a peasant,
should proceed to the place indicated, provided
with a revolver and 400 scudi, and followed at a
distance by a patrol of his men. On his arrival
he found the chief and lieutenant of the band.
My master can only send you,' he said, 'this sum
at present. Money is not easy to find. In a few
days you shall have the rest. In the meantime,
for my discharge, count what there is.' 'While the
two robbers were stooping down to comply with
the request, the other drew out his pistol and shot
them both dead. Their companions, who were
posted in a neighbouring thicket, seeing them fall,
rushed out to take revenge, but the gendarmes
also hastened up, and after a short resistance put
to flight the malefactors, who left three wounded
and two dead on the ground. The non-commis-
sioned officer was mentioned in the order of the day,
made a brigadier, and decorated by the Pops with
the Grand Med d."

ORGAN PLAYING BY ELECTRICITY. - Organ
players are perhaps the very last class of persons
who have expected to have their enjoyments
doubled through the agency of electricity. Until
now the one great drawback to the pleasure of
organ playing has been the necessity of sitting
close to the organ itself, a position most unfavour-
able for the hearing of the sounds given forth by
the multitude of pipes immediately in front and
above the head of the player. Not only are the
endless delicacies of the quality of the various stops
in the instrument thus obscured, but that magni-
ficent roll and volume of tone in which the organ is
unrivalled is scarcely to be felt. in the few cathe-
drals where the pipes have been placed in the tri-
forium of the choir, while the player sits below in
the stalls, the evil is but slightly remedied, the
sounds being still completely above the musician's
head ; while on the rare occasions when the keys
have been temporarily brought forward to a dis-
tance of some yards from the organ, the necessary
mechanism has seriously interfered with the ac-
tion of the keyboard. Now, at last, all diffi-
culties have been overcome, and by the action
of a cable of insulated wires the player is enabled
to perform upon a keyboard placed at any dis-
tance from the body of the organ, with as much
ease as if he was seated within a foot of the
pipes.

TILE DOG-STEALING NUISANCE.—At Greenwich,
yesterday, Mr. Morison, a solicitor, applied for a commons
against Superintendent Griffin. The complainant stated
that all the stray unmuzzled dogs which the police caught
were fastened up in a yard continuous to his house; and
they howled all night so that he and his family could not
sleep. There was an officer to look after the dogs, but he
shouted at and thrashed them, which made the noise worse.
The magistrate declined to grant the summons; and the
superinteadout proraieedto do all ialtiapovor to abate the
nuisance;
