EJEcTxksI Casa day or two since a
case Of "ejectment" came up for hearing
before Justice Plant, involving tho question
whether a person can be made a tenant
without his own consent. One John
Curtis sued out q summons against Isaac
Shorter to recover possession Of a tenement
purchased by Curtis at a sale under a deed
Of trust given by Shorter. 1t appeared In
evidence that Shorter never paid rent TO Cur
It's, nor in any manner recognized him as
his Landlord, but claimed he was the owner
Of the premises. Mr.. Hinc, counsel for the
defendant, argued that the defendant could
not be elected In that form OF action by the
plaintiff because the relation Of landlord and
tenant did not exist between them, nor be.
tween him and any one under whom the
plaintiff claimed. Mr.. Norris, counsel fol
plaintiff, contended that the ordinary seven
days summons was the proper writ 10 the
case, because the act OF Congress Of July a.
1854, expressly provided that "the person
entitled to the possession" Of tenement;
might sue out the writ against any one who
detained them from him. The magistrat,
reserved his decision, which is looked fol
with some interest. 80

The APPRENTICES AT THE GOVERNMENT
PRINTING 0FFIcE.-The nine boys selected
as apprentices at the Government printing
Office have now fairly settled down to their
trade, and their instructor, Mr.. Schell, has
great hopes for their future. The two colored.
boys get along as well as the others, and there
seems to be sort Of rivalry as 10 who shall
excel In their daily tasks. II the circum-
stance Of the colored boys being put on has
such an effect as this, and 1t last, then the
Congressional printer has indeed been fortu-
nate In his selections.
