Tee LADIES DIMMED or rate Cuas.s.—Saturday evening, se-
veral decent-looking wrenetattanded before the Magistrate Mt Or
purpose of-making the following complaint, and obtaining redress:
—After a good deal of whispering among them, one of the women,
who was impelled forward by her companions towards the. Mails:.
crates table, dropped a low curtsey, requesting on behalf of bawl,
and fellow-sufferets, to state a shameful imposition which had-been
practised upon them all by a barber, named . Thomas Rusistott.—
This perton called at her house a few days ago, and having- re-
mwited an interview, which 'be said wai of serious moment,. was
dsewn into the parlour. He commenced by entreating her paadoce
for the liberty he was about tosake is asking bee to poll off her cap.
She did as be wished, and having a good head of hair, he praised
its beautiful colour and softness, adding, that 'if he-could prevail
upon her kindness to-permit him to cut it off she should have a gui-
nea and two false fronts to conceal that which shed "rebid lose in
case she accepted of the bargain. Being in want of money at the time,
the poor woman consented, and be immediately drew forth front his
pocket a pair of scissors, and cut all herhair off close round.' "See
your Worship," said she, 4` see what he has donerand salting her
bonnet and cap off, exhibited her bait bead, with•the little heir left
upon it by the barber sticking up like pig's bristles. There was a
general roar of laughter in the office, as the- Lady turned bee body
round, to enable the Magistrate to see the manner in which the
fellow bad cropped her. She continued--As soon as the herb*
had clipped her so closely as not even to leave as much )exer kir
temples as would bear a curl paper, he thrust the whole.of barb*
into the crown of his hat, and ran out of the house, without giving
her a halfpenny for that of which he deprived her. She had not
seen him since tintil- that morning, when she was informed hefted
served many other females in the same manner. Several of, her
fellow-sufferers here stood forward, and displayed their hisals;slwro
of bale, to the Magistrate, all of whom were docked as closely of
their bar, as the former iady.
The klaahreaies expressed his surprise how women of thrleait
le partic of common understanding, could allow theirdaiw.to be aft
offender such circumstances; but would, in the! event '4414 of-
folder being taken into custody, punish him in.sucb a manner:ite•
would' effectually check such practices.
