A MARRIAGE PORTION FUND.—The British Friend,
the organ of the Society of Friends, gives a notice of a
somewhat singular fund—a fund for " removing obstrue.
tions to matrimony among the lower class" of Friends.
A sum of £l,BOO has been raised, the interest of which is
to be disposed of according to the original purpose, " by
a deed poll entered into by the subscribers." Ten pounds
are paid to every woman and man, two years members of
certain meetings, provided they are not otherwise worth
£3O. When the money is short, women are to be prefer-
red to men, and spinsters and bachelors to widows and
widowers. The stock of this Marriage Company is lent
on mortgage. The names of the subscribers to the fund
are given,

A" FAITHLESS WOOER."—A novel case came before
the Central Police-court yesterday (Wednesday) morning,
in which the defendant, a tailor, named Webster, belong-
ing to Arbroath, was accused of obtaining at various times
the sum of £6O from a widow residing in that town, on
fraudulent pretences. It appears that the defendant was
a lodger in the complainant's house, both before and after
the death of her husband, which took place three months
since. Shortly after the occurrence of the sad event, an
attachment, seemingly reciprocal, sprung up between the
landlady and her lodger, which resulted in the latter
pledging to lead the buxom widow a second time to the
altar, so soon as her regard for the memory of the departed

stepped into his shoes by having
appropriated to himself all his personal effects, consisting
of wearing apparel, watch, &c. In addition to this, the
lucky tailor also persuaded the too credulous woman to
advance him sums of money, varying from £5 to £l5, at
different periods, but towards the end of last week, after
receiving one of these pecuniary instalments, he bolted
from the town, leaving his disconsolate landlady to look
after her money and a husband as best she might. The
fox was unkennelled in this city two days ago, and he is
now on his way to the authorities whose province it is to
