In the Bail Court on Thursday, Mr. Justice Coleridge granted
a rule, calling cn Hobbs, the plainiiff in the Qui Tam actions against
the newspapers (or inserting advertisements of foreign lotteries, to
show cause why he should not give security for costs.

The Court of Common Pica; made the rule absolute for setting
aside the nonsuit in the case of A) hag to. Golding. This was an action
for crim. con. that was to have come on for trial at the last Sussex
Assizes, but in which the plaintiff had been nonsuited, in conse
quence of non appearance. It appeared he had been mistaken as
to the time appointed for the trial.
Mr. Commissioner Goulburn suspended the certificate and the

In the Insolvent Court, George B. Allen, who has already been

An omnibus conductor, named Wm. S. Bobbett, the wearer of
the metal ticket Lonts, was charged, at the instance of the registrar,
with deceiving a passenger as to the route. The case, which was
heard at the Queen's-square Police-office, was fully proved,
and the defendant convicted in the penalty of twenty shillings, or
fourteen days' imprisonment. It would be well that the public
should remember the numbers of those conductors who have been
thus convicted, in order that they may avoid them.

Rose, grocer, No. 312, Oxford.street, with having defrauded him

had lured the prosecutrix to his house under the pretence
of getting her a situation as nursery snail, and had there perpetrated
the offence. The defence was that all that had been done was
with the consent of the girl. The Magistrate said that, from the
defendant's own admission his conduct towards the complainant
reflected upon him the most indelible disgrace and infamy. lie
should take time fee consideration as to whether the case was suit
ciently strong to justify his committal upon the charge, and should
in the meantime require him to enter into his own recognizance
in 200/. and find two responsible sureties in 1001. each for his ap.
pearance on a future day.
