POLICE INTELLIGENCE.
MANVON-110USE.

Saturday, a black man, nearly seventy years of age, with •
head as grey as that of a badger, was brought before the Loan
Maros, bytheOverseers of a parish, charged open a case. of bastardy.
Tripp, the beadle of the parish, stated that Lloyd, the prisoner,
had no idea of casting a doubt upon the alleged paternity, and his
wife, so far from feeling as meat wives would •prohal..ly feel untie
such circumstances, bad determined to nurse the child herself,
psnvided it bore. the colour. of btr.husband, who was as yet childless,
and who had a very 'rear. desin to be a father.
The Loan Marais asked the defendant whether. he had anything
to say upon the subject?
The idack grinned and shook his head. " I've no objection," said
he, " ily Lord, to take care of de young one, so that it happen to
be buy own, and we'll sown see dot." lie then leered at his wife
and his frail companion, who seemed to be on the best of terms with
each other.
The Loaol.lla.voa asked the latter how, in the name of all that
was horrible, she could have ever thought of injuring the peace of
Alr,s. Lloyd?
Alm. Lloyd answered the question with a smile. She declared
that her husband waaa good Fenn*, and that she felt no animosity
at all upon the occasion. As for the babe, if it proved to be the right
colour, she. would take.the greatestcare of it, and if it proved white
she hoped the parish would look opt for another fattier.
Rachel Jacobs, the second or third woman who saw the defend-
ant's" visage iii his mind," kissed the book, and upon being desired
to pOint out the father; " There he Stands,* said she," that 'ere
old Gentleman.". Tripp said, that to dolls. Lloyd justice, she was one of the
most indulgent of wives, for the moment she heard what bad hap-
pe4l to Miami, she said she would be godmother to whatever
Gott pleased to Send, and was sow actually employed in Making
baby clothes.
The Loan Naxos seemed not at all surprised at the contested,
manner in which Dies. Lloyd bore the news that her husband had
tiausferred his (liaison to 'Maher Wonsan; but his Lordship could
not help again expressing hid 'amaitintent at the strange spirit of
rivalry with which Rachel had been. seized.
Rachel Jacobs held down her head, and pleaded the disparity of
years, which gave the defendant such an advantage over her.
". Why, how old are Your. said the Lotus tviaitea, who did net
think abe was such a chitken as she wished to be thought.
Ilachele. Lloyd, your Lordship, is nearly seventy, and I'm
only forty.-one.
Ale Loan Alooroe admitted that there was a disparity, but he
thought 'that tbe !oats of the female was mutely an excuse, not:
Sittbitindine the powerful temptation to which she was exposed.
Wm order was rhea made out; but if the child should turn oat
,wb(te, the.pariih officers meet disregard the oath of Rachel, and
.titot :by judgment to another, trial amongst the inhabitants of
Duke s-place.
