action TO recover the sum Of $3.50 for one quarters

ter's rent for which this SUIT was brought became
due, the plaintiff demanded the same from the
defendant, who kept putting him or from time to
iime and that finally about the lat OF January
the landlord dispospossed the defendant by sum-
mary proceedings under the statute.
The defendants counsel claimed that this dspos-
session was bar to the recovery 0f the IN this
action. Judge Loew decided tnat when, by the
terms Of the agreement. the rent Ia payable In adj
vance, the right Of the landlord TO recover at least

cuped the premises after the rent became payable,
Is not defeated by the dispossession OF the tenant
before the expiration Of the quarter. He therefore
rendered Judgment for plaintiff FOR Sl66 8s.

The Case Of the Imprisoned Fcnians Before
Parliament.
The case Of the imprisoned Fenians was brought
before the House OF Commons on the 22d ult. Mr..
Chichester Forteecue stated in reply to the 0'Conor
Don, that the Irish government had examined
very carefully the list OF the prisoners, num-
bering eighty.0ne, now UNDERGOING pcnal
seryitude charges OF treason and treason-felony
In connection with the fenian movement, In order
to ascertain whether the clemency OF the Crown
might safely be extended to any OF them.
The result was that II had been determined
70 discharge forty-nine Internationally, OF whom
thirty -four were In Australia and fifteen In Great
Britain. This would leave thirty-two prisoners
still undergoing the sentence OF whom nine were In
the colonies and the remainder at home. These con-
sisted principally Of the leaders and organizers
who were responsible for the attempted revolution
Of the last two or three years. and to these the
Ministers did not believe it would be consistent with
their duty, or be compatible with the public safety,
