"JEANE' BABBY. "A London journal thus
reports - case which came up in the Marl-
borough street Police Court:
James Hartley, tall, full whiskered footman.
attired in a suit of scarlet plush, appeare to a
summons. granted at the instance of Sophia
Rogers, pretty young sempStress, to show cause
why he should not be made to contribute to-
wards the maintenance OF an illegitimate child.
The complainant said she had the misfortune to
become acquainted. with the defendant about IA
months ago, at tea party, where he paid her
the greatest Of attention. lie subsequently
begged to be allowed to visit her with matri-
monial intentions, and she, being alone in the
world, gladly complied, and the result was the
birth of the child she held in her arms Pre-
Vious to its birth, she wrote to the defendant,
apprising him of her situation, and in reply she
received the following precious epistle
= My VERY deer SOphi,-Wen spOk to you
habOut our marredge, Of coarse | ment it but
wen you lets yung man take libbertis with you,
whot must hexpect by haveing such a wife.
Now, the ticket is this, if you proves the kid is
mine am willin to support it, but not lis. So
no more Mt present from yours, JAMES H."
In answer to the magistrate the complainant
sail the defendant had given her money for the
child, but that was when he was q little eleya-
ted. The magistrate said that would hold good
if she could bring forward a witness TO prove ir.
A witness here stepped forward and said she
was present in August last, when she saw the
defendant give. the complainant ten shilings
which he said was for bis :" babby." Laugh
ter The defendant said if he gave her ter
shillings, il must have been while he was "hele-
waited, for he was very careful of his money
The magistrate said there was sufficient eyi
dence to warrant him in making an order for 2s
cd. a week and costs. Mr. James hereupoI
pulled very long face, and left the court, ap
parently in disgust.

STOvR, | have examined it thoroughly, and think
It has vsry appropriate name-SHELL. Yes, shells
will burn out in few fires. 1t is a good name for
them-good for the makers. And as to the Old Morn

again. They as thin as pastebOard. | can prov
that the makers agent urged me, for almost day,
last summer IN my counting room to sell them this
Fall; saying THAI If | would take twenty five of
