MAME S.
Mr. P'iliiatit doper,, a paper-stainer, of Bell-wharf-hill,
Lower Shadwell, appeared before Mr. Broderip, to answer a
charge preferred by Mr. William Crosby, of the firm of
Kennett and Crosby, paper-hangers and decorators, of 1 and
2, Queen-street, Southwark-bridge with having unlawfully
pirated a design in paper-banging Which had been registered
by the complainant under the sth and 6th Victoria, cap. 100,
called " An Act to consolidate and Amend the Laws relating
to the Copyright of Designs.".
Mr. Pelham appeared for the defendant.
Mr. Crosby produced a pattern of stained piper of the blue-
bell pattern with scroll and leaves, and a certificate appended
thereto, by which it appeared that the desiguhad been properly
registered, that it was numbered 24,047, and that the copy-
right had been secured to him for three years. He registered
the design on the lit of January last, and be had since ascer-
tained that it had been pirated, and paper of a sisailar pattern
used by the defendant, who had stolen his invention.
William Hearn, a journeyman in the employ of Kennett
and Crosby, said he went to the defendant's house, on the 12th
of last month, and purchased a roll of stained paper of the bell
flower pattern. He used the name of Mr, Edward Piney, of
Tooley-street, and the defendant supplied him with the quan-
tity he asked for.
The original design was produced, and compared with the
paper sold by the defendant, and the imitation was palpable.
Mr. Baonuatr thought there could be no doubt of the
piracy. .
Mr. Pelham said there was a variation in tile leaves and
flowers, and the scroll terminated in a larger, leaf in .the al-
leged pirated stained paper. The scroll and leaf in the original
design were half formed in perspective. peciefendant'apaper
had a curled stalk and no leaf.
Mr. Crosby opened rolls of stained papers of various colours,
but all from the same design, and laid them alongside the de-
fendant's paper. They appeared to be precisely similar. He
pointed out to the magistrate that the register mark was upon
the head of every piece of stained paper manufactured by Ken-
nett and Crosby.
Mr. Pelham—lf you take the edges of the blocks you will
find the dimensions vary a little.
Mr. Bitonitate said the pirated paper was as nearly identical
as possible with the original design, but the execution was in-
ferior. It was not a fac simile, but a fraudulent imitation.
Mr. Pelham—We are charged in the summons with imitating
the complainant's paper, but the evidence only goes to prove
that we sold paper of a similar pattern.
Mr. Bei:u:me said the case was clearly made out under the
statute, and it was such a flagrant one that he felt disposed to
inflict the full penalty of 501., which the defendant had in-
curred. The defendant bad not only imitated the com-
plainant's paper, but carried on a trade in it. The designs
were substantially the same. There was the difference always

to be seen in a copy.
Mr. Pelham, finding the magistrate determined to convict,
appealed to Mr. Crosby for mercy for his client, and said he
hoped he would be satisfied if the further sale of the printed
paper was suppressed.
Mr. Crosby said he had been at some expense in registering
his designs, and in addition to the suppression of the sale, he
should not be content unless the defendant gate up his blocks
to be destroyed, and inserted a " public apology" in three or
four of the leading newspapers.
The defendant was glad enough to accept of these terms, and
to pay the expense of inserting the apology in the nerispapets
as an advertisement.
Mr. BRODEILIF said he would suspend his judgment for one
week, and if Mr. Crosby's terms were not complied with he
should inflict a penalty of 39/.
The defendant said he would immediately give up the blocks
and carry cut the agreement.
Mr. Ole Anderson Krage appeared before Mr. Broderip to
answer the demand of Mr. Edward Taylor Dumlin, a licensed
Trinity House pilot, who sued for a balance of 275., to which he
was entitled for piloting the ship Scandinavian from the Surrey
Canal Dock to the Downs. 'the defendant, a Norwegian, was
attended by an interpreter.
Mr. Dumlin said he brought forward this case on public
grounds. On the 31st of May last he went on board the
Scandinavian to ascertain if the defendant wanted a pilot, and
he offered him a lower price than the rates fixed by Act of
Parliament. He refused to take charge of the ship unless paid
according to the regular scale, .and told the defendant it was
contrary to law to do so. The defendant said he would get a
cheap pilot, and he then left him. On the following day he
sgain went on board, and found the ship getting under weigh,
with an easterly wind, and an unlicensed pilot on board. He
took charge of the ship with the defendant's permission, and he
said the draught of water was only nine feet, and he shaped
his course accordingly. On arriving in the lower part of Gal-
leons, near Woolwich, he met with a shoal, and was taking the
ship over it. when she began to smell the ground; and tailed
on the edge of the shoal, where she stuck fast. He then told
the defendant that he had made a great mistake in the ship's
draught of water, and that instead of nine feet she drew eleven
feet ; and, to satisfy himself, he-sounded round the vessel, and
found that her draught of water was 11 feet. The ship re-
mained on the shoal until next flood tide, when she floated off,
and he piloted her without any further misadventure down to
the Sunk-light, where the defendant paid him 71. for his pilot-
age, and gave a boatman 155., as he was bound to do, to put
him ashore. He had only received pilotage for a ship drawing
nine feet of water. The ship drew within an inch or two of 11
feet, but he had only charged for 104 feet, and was legally en
titled to 275. more.,

Mr. BRODERII,—How much does the ship actually drew.
The pilot=l found, according to the Norwegian measure-
ment, which is -a little snore than the- English, 10} feet. It
was close upon II English feet.
The defendant made some vague observations in reply to
the charges. He admitted the ship drew 10 feet, or 10 feet
2 inches, or a little more, and said, if the pilot knew the differ-
ence between the Norwegian and the English measurement, he
ought to have ascertained the draught of water before he took
charge of the ship.
The pilot said he-was quite unprepared.for what took place.
He relied on what the captain said, that his vessel drew nine
feet only. When the vessel took the ground the accident was
attended with danger to the ship and cargo, and if anything
serious' had happened he might have lost his license and his
reputation at the same time.;
Mr. BRODER'? said he- had never met with such a case
before during his long experience as a magistrate. The pilot
alleged that I deception was practised upon him to save a few
shillings in the amount of pilotage, and it did appear he was
not prepared for the ship " smelling the ground," and would
have avoided the shoal if he had been aware the ship drew
eleven feet water. The evidence of the pilot was not rebutted,
and he was of opinion he was entitled to the additional sum of
275., and ought to have been paid for a.ship of tot feet draught
of water instead of nine feet.

TWO PERSONS POISONED BY FUNGI.—A poor
man and wife, named Walker, of St. Martin's-lane, Norwich,
hare during the last week been poisoned by eating fungi; in-
stead of mushrooms. The man bad been after work into the
country, and, on his return, brought with hint, as be thought,
some mushrooms. They stewed and ate them for supper, and
on the following morning were very ill. Mr. Firth, the
surgeon, being sent for, found that the sickness had been occa-
sioned by eating fungi. The poor woman died on Friday. The
husband was at that time so bad that scarcely a hope of life
could be entertained ; but on Sunday he was still -living, and'
some hopes are now entertained of his restoration. .An inquest
was held on the body of the woman, on Saturday,- before Mr.
Mendham, deputy-coroner, when the jury found a verdict of
" Died from eating fungi." Mr. Firth stated that, since the
occurrence, he had walked through Norwich market, and had
found on the stalls poisonous fungi selling for mushrooms. He
told the sellers of the nature of ttieM, and they readily allowed
them to be destroyed.—lpswich Express.
SEED On.s. The Commissioners of Customs
having had under consideration an application from certain
parties,requesting that seed oil may be allowed to be landed
at Butler's Wharf, and also the reports of the principal 'prac-
tical Officers thereon; wherein. they submit that seed oils gene-
rally may be permitted to be landed a 4 the premises above-
mentioned, and that the indulgence may be extended to` all
,the `first-class sufferance wharfs with the additional privileges
on the banks of the river—orders have been issued for the
request to be complied with, and the privilege extended to
all the wharfs mentioned, as recommended by the officers of
the revenue, which regulation is to take place from the pre-
sent time, and of which the Revenue Departments generally
have been apprised, for their information and fnture govern-
ment.
THE IMPROVEMENTS IN THE TOWEL—The im-
portant improvements now going on in this fortress are pro-
gressing more rapidly.. The new Waterloo barracks, which
are to be upwards of three hundred feet in length, are consi-
derably above the foundation, and in some parts even as high
as the first story. The deinolition of the present entrance, the
spur gate, barracks, warders' hall, &c., will not be proceeded
with until the garrison is completed. In the course of yester-
day several ancient and valuable relics were added to the grand
armoury. Amongst them were two superb complete suits of
Asiatic chain armour, formed of copper, steel, and brass. Also
a shield of the sixteenth century, of considerable value, pur-
chased by the Board of Ordnance, representing the siege of
Nantes in 1477, and the death of the Duke of Burgundy.
There have also been added two cross bows, rescued from the
wreck of the Mary Rosa, sunk at Spithead 250 years since
which are in an excellent state of preservation.
