kalestow-Hoosx.—Yesterday, the Officers of a Parish appeared
to answer the complaint of the mother of an illegitimate-child,
for refusing to allow her a stipend for its support. It appeared
that the father, a sailor, had made overtures to the Overseers to
relieve them of the burdeh altogether; but the mother refused
to give up the child, alleging that be intended to sell it to the
Gipsies at Norwood, and had avowed such intention, upon which
the Parish Officers stopped their meekly allowance to her. The
• LOAD MAvoa at first appeared to think the mother's fears as ill-
founded as the Overseers had done. The grandmother, however,
stepped forward, and assured his Lordship that the sailor had
actually sold a natural child of his own sister to these Gipsies ;
and the mother also declared she had seen it in their possession,
and that ha face had been stained ib as to accord with those of
the rest of the tawney tube. Under these circumstances, to soothe•
the poor woman's anxiety, his Lordship interposed with the Over-
seen, and got them to agree in allowing her a maintenance.
GUILDHALL.—Tuesday, a young man named Neil, otherwise
Naar Douglas, was brought up upon a warrant, charged with
haVing fraudulently obtained the sum of £4. 19s. 3d. from one
John Curtis, olChapman's-buildings, King-street, Borough, un-
der the false pretence of procuring for him a situation as one of
the extra clerks la the East India House. The transaction oc-
curred in the year 1919 ; Douglas had then abscouded, and a
warrant had been dispatched after him, to apprehend him in
Glasgow, but without success. Through the exertions of Vickery,
one-of the Dow-street officers, it Seas dhcovered lately that he
was in London. • On affidavit of this fact, a new warrant was
granted, and the prisoner taken into custody. Douglas pru-
dently kept silence; but his Solicitor urged that there was no
proof whatever of hiS having ieceived the Money.ftetnanded.
