DI it R Y. I. A -.BON NE.

A Gentleman who resides in Tauntonplace, Mary.la.boonei
came before the Magistrate, and complained of the esnine.krepire,
the parish, and also of several firemen and watchmen. Ik
that on Sunday night, an alarm of fire having been raised in
street, the watchmen knocked at the doors of several of the home.,
and having been informed that the Ire was not in either of them,/
they at length knocked at the door of the complainant's house, r -
although they were assured that no part of the house was on
they insisted upon entering, and searchid the place, to the snit
annoyance of the family. Mick, the engine-keeper, was sent -
and be said that he was informed that a Ere was on the premise%
and in fact, he saw sufficient sparks, Ice. to justify his making ss,
affidavit that the chinrney was on fire. The llaaistrate said
it was most shameful conduct for firemen to enter person: honors,
and insist upon making a search, when they w. re informed that no
part of the premises was on fire. He reconimended the Gentleman
to apply to the Vestry upon the subject, unless an ample ap.
was made.

UNION-HALL.
Sadi Ondsark Denby, Professor of Oriental Languiges, and L
preter to the Persian Ambassador, was brought up on a warre,
by the parish officers of Lunbeth.for refusing to pay-for the maittte.
nance of his illegitimate child, born in the work hou.e. defendAt,
who, we understand, is a native of Algiers, was dre..ed in
Turkish costume, with turban, &c. lii. complexion is extrem
dark, and according to the custom of his country, he permitted
beard, whiskers, and mustachios to grow to a prtxlijious lengtt
It appeared that he accompanied Lord Exmouth, in the capacit
interpreer,daring the late expedition it'd bomhadnient of A 1,1.:
and had 2159 rendered hims:if extremely useful previously sluril
the campaign in Egypt, for which services he now receives a pension
from the British Government. When the case was called, AI,-
Roach, a well looking young wormtn, stepped torwatd, bearing ,
infant in her arms; she distinctly swore th.tt Sidi Ornbark. Beta
was the father of-her child.

The defendant strongly denied the charge, and declared that
did not know the woman, other than from having taken htr
his service for a short time out of pure amity. The young worn
however, told a very straightforward tale of her having been
custed in February last by the defendant, on -Westminster hrif
and his premising to procure her a situation abroad ; in cuoseque:,
of which, she agreed to meet him at a house in a court in
Strand, which proved to be a brothel; he afterwards tunk her
his service, and the catastrophe was a little Sadi ()nibs' k Lien!
The Magistrate ordered the defendant to pay Ss. a week tow.
the support of the child, who was produced by the mother,
living proof, in feature and complexion, of his high descent.

Last week an elderly Lady, in going down a stow,
stair, in her house in Fitzroy-square, slipped a font
fractured her skull. Medical assistance was i: stani
given, but she only survived the accident till nest d

home, Joseph-like, in a chess of many colours.
