MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

THREATENING AND ASSAULTING A WITNESS.-At Marl-
borough-street, Henry Bacon, a labourer, living in Saville.
street, Marylebone, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt
with being concerned with two other men, named George
Pybus and Charles Dunn, in threatening Alfred Gilland,
traveller, in the employ of Mr. Still, ginger-beer manu.
facturer, of Wells-street, Oxford-street. The complainant,
who was some years ago a witness against Dunn, was on the
evening of thel4th with his brother in his van in Saville-street
Marylebone, when the three men above-named came up tci
him, and BAcon, after remarking, " There's the Gillands,"
stopped the horse. Pybus then got into the van, and
struck the complainant's brother, and Dunn drew a knife
and threatened to stab the complainant for " lagging "
(transporting) him for five years. The complainant
jumped out of the van to get away from Dunn, when
Bacon put out his leg and tried to throw the complainant.
down. Dunn, who is a "ticket-of-leave," having been
convicted of burglary, and Fybus, who has • several
times been convicted, were brought before the
magistrate and held to bail in £2O each, and Bacon
was taken into custody last night by Police-
constable Tooley, 16 E. The prisoner, who made no de-
fence, was fined 40s. or a month, Mr. Tyrwhitt remarking
that persons who were witnesses ' always receive
every protection at his hands.

A COLLIERY OWNER FINED.---The Stoke-On-Trent
magistrates have imposed a fine of £5 and costs upon
Mr. William Bowers, owner of the Berry fill Colliery,
for neglecting to provide adequate ventilation in the
pit. The defence was that the ventilation of the pit
was always good ; that there was no deficiency in the
care taken by the management to provide for the
safety of the men ; that an accident which had taken
place arose from extraordinary circumstances, namely,
a fall of a mass of coal on the night prior to the ex-
plosion, which impeded the ordinary ventilation.

CIANDLES.—If you do not want your candles
k) exclusively for show, but with pleasantness of appearance
require excellence of burning, buy "PRICE'S GOLD MEDAL
PALMITINE," or their "SHERWOOD PALMITINE," or their
good old-fashioned "BELMONT SPERM," or "BELMONT
WAX," or their "BEST," "No. 2," "N 0.3," or "BATTERSEA "
COMPOSITE, in preference to the finest and most transparent
Paraffine candles. But if you must have the extreme trans-
parency of pure Paraillne, "PRICES PARAFFINE" or their
"BELMONTINE" will give it to you in perfection, and at a more
moderate price than is usually charged for any other really first-
class Paraffine Candles.

The new toilet soap "PRICE'S SOLIDIFIED GLYCERINE,"
containing half its weight of their concentrated distilled Glyce-
rine, should be in general use in every house before the winter
comes on, because of its admirable effects in preventing chap-
ping of the hands and face. In every house there ought also to
be one of the sealed bottles of their concentrated Distilled Gly-
cerine, known everywhere as "PRICE'S GLYCERINE," and
prescribed by the most eminent medical men abroad as well as at
home, as the one only Glycerine for medicinal use whether ex-
ternally or internally.
PRICE'S FANCY SOAPS of the different sorts usually made
are excellent, and command a constantly increasing sale. The
" Solidified Glycerine" spoken of above is, however, the one fancy
soap to use.
"PRICE'S NEW PATENT NIGHT LIGHTS," for burning
in the wide glasses are believed to be the very best Night Lights
made. "PRICE'S CHILDS' NIGHT LIGHTS," for burning
without glasses, and their different sorts of "CHAMBER CAN -
DLES " are so well known, and so generally used and appre-
ciated, as not to need any special notice here.

IMPORTANT TRADE-MARK CASE.

A case bearing on the piracy of trade-marks was
tried at the May 1867 term of the Court of Chan-
cery in Hamilton, Canada West, and judgment
was given by Vice-Chancellor Spragge on the 3d of
the following September. The proprietor of the
Perry Davis Vegetable Pain-Killer brought the ac-
tion to restrain James Kennedy, of Hamilton, from
issuing their trade-mark " Pain-killer."
The Vice-Chancellor held that the words thus
quaintly combined did form a trade-mark, and were
not, as the defendant contended, a mere term of
description. Had defendant used the designation
alone it would have been a flagrant infringement of
the plaintiff's right. But the defendant contended
that the words used by him, " The Great Home
Remedy, Kennedy's Pain-killer," differed so ob-
viously that to mistake one for the other was im-
probable. No doubt there were differences in the
bottles as well as in the labels when seen together,
but the grievance of the complaint is, of course, the
use of the words " Pain-killer."

The judgment concludes thus I have not
thought it necessary to go through the cases on the
law of trade-marks which is now well understood.
The application of it to particular cases is the diU.
culty. I will only refer to the language of Lord
Cranworth in Farina v. Silverlock ; it is peculiarly
apposite to the case before me: Judges may occa-
sionally have erred in the application of the law to
particular facts, but I apprehend that the law 10
perfectly clear, that any one who has adopted a
particular mode of designating his particular manu-
facture has a right to say, not that other persons
shall not sell exactly the same article, better or
worse, or an article looking exactly like it, but that
they shall not sell it in such way as to steal (so be
calls it) his trade-mark, and make purchasers be-
lieve that it is the manufacture to which the trade-
mark originally was applied. The practice of ap-
propriating the trade-mark of others has been re-
probated by various judges, and I have no doubt
that. Lord Cranworth used the word steal to mark
his sense of its gross impropriety. In the Colima
Company v. Cowan, Sir W. Page Wood took occa-
sion to characterise it in language not more severe
than just. ' I cannot conceive,' he said, ' of anything
short of indictable offences more discreditable than
this course of proceeding.' The plaintiff is entitled
to an injunction on the terms prayed for by his bill,
and to an account as prayed. The decree will be
with costs."

UNI7 ED STA 7 ES CONSULATES.

An article has recently appeared in leading
American journals which gives the amount of fees
received at several of the principal Consulates in
Europe. It is uuderstood that the amounts were
stated on official authority.. The annual receipts
at Paris were put down at over $40,000, those at
London at over $30,000. Many journals seem
to have reached the incorrect conclusion that
the emoluments of the Consuls at the places
referred to are measured by the amount of fees
received, and the Consulates referred to have been
regarded as rich places for expectant office seekers.
No one who has read the law will need to be in-
formed that the fees received at the Consulates
named, and at all others, except a few of little im-
portance, are not the property of the Consul, but of
the United States, and must, by law, be paid into
the Treasury, with a statement thereof, under oath.
The salary of the Consul at Paris is $5,000, and
this is his sole source of remuneration. Out of this
he is required to pay $1,500, or thereabouts, for
clerk hire and incidental expenses. The real salary
of the Consul is less than $3,500. Mr. Bigelow,
the late Consul, in an elaborate report to the Go-
vernment, in which the subject of salary and ex-
penses was fully discussed, declared that a Consul
at Paris, living only moderately well, would be re-
quired to expend $3,900 per annum more than his
salary.
The salary at London is $7,500, beyond which
the Consul has no source of remuneration. Out of
this he pays three clerks, and he is required to pay,
moreover, the incidental expenses of his office, as
fuel, lights, &c., &c. His net salary is less than
$5,000. Any one at all familiar with the cost of
living in London knows that that sum is not
adequate to the support of a family living as the
family of an American Consul at a great capital
should live.

Until recently many Consuls were allowed to
establish agencies near their Consulates, and to ap-
point agents to transact business, who divided all
the fees received with their principals. If, as
turned out to be the case in many instances, the
bulk of the business by any means centred at the
agencies where the fees were the property of the
Consul and agent, instead of at the chief Consulate,
where they were the property of the Government,
Consuls found themselves, in comparatively small
districts, in the receipt of greater emoluments than
their neighbouring Consuls at the great capitals.
By a judicious enactment Congress at the last ses-
sion put an end to this system.
As a rule, the Consuls of the United States are
inadequately paid, and there is no Consulate which
yields an adequate support unless the incumbent is
content to live in a style unbecoming the country
L he represonta.

TRE BrarroPßlci 67 NEW ZEILIND,

It is reported that the bishopric of New Zealand will be
conferred upon the Rev. James Leslie Randall, rector of
Newbury, Berks. Mr. Randall is the son of the Arch.
deacon of Berkshire, and brother of the newly-appointed
incumbent of All Saints Church, Clifton. Mr. Randall
was educated at New College, Oxford, and became a
fellow of that college. He graduated B.A. 1851, M.A.
1855, and would therefore be about 38 years of age. He was
ordained by the Bishop of Oxford, deacon 1852 and priest
1853, and was presented by the bishop in 1857 to the rectory
of Newbury, worth £3BO and a house. At the present time
the income of the bishopric of New Zealand cannot be
stated. Bishop Selwyn is now in New Zealand making
arrangements for supplying a suitable revenue for the
incumbent of the see. Appeals have been made in
England for voluntary subscriptions.

PROGRESS OF ELECTIONS.

The Cleveland Leader, in an excellent article,
draws attention to the value of tried Congressional
Representatives, and the advisability of electing
good men. It says the Thirty-ninth Congress
gained most of its strength from the public experi-
ence of its members, and generally the most able
of them were re-elected for the Fortieth. When that
Congress assembled, nearly all the tried men of the
previous House were present, nor they only, but such
additions from former Houses as John Covode,
Kelsey of New York,' Generals Logan, Cadwallader,
Washburne, Van Wyck, and Shanks—and by such
new but well-known men as Governor Blair, Gene-
rals Butler, Dodge, and Pile, Judge Poland, Nor-
man B. Judd and Morrell of Pennsylvania. After
observing that "if there be one thing needful to
legislative efficiency, it is legislative experience,"
it asks what has been done towards keeping the
valuable material of the present House in Wash-
ington ? " Thaddeus Stevens is dead. Speaker
Colfax is withdrawn to become a candidate for Vice-
President, John A. Griswold to run for Governor
of New York, and Colonel McClurg for Governor
of Missouri. llooper and Eliot of Massachusetts,
Moorhead and Broomall of Pennsylvania, Wilson
of lowa, Ilulburd of New York, Shellabarger,
Delano, Spalding and Plants of Ohio, and General
Logan of Missouri, have declined to stand for
re-election. Pomeroy of New York, Woodbridge
of Vermont, Pike of Maine, Williams of Pennsyl-
vania, Trowbridge of Michigan, and Buckland of
Ohio, have been defeated in Convention or caucus.
It has been reported that Dawes of Massachusetts
and Governor Thomas of Maryland intend to de-
cline. While, for some reason—declension or defeat
