Justice Scott was yesterday called upon to adj
Indicate in a singular case, the memory of which
viii remain with him as long as he lives. The
complainant is none other than Christina Nils

one Charles Theodore Busch, German musi-
elan OF three-scOre, whose heart had been
pierced with Cupid's shafts until his aged head
turned. Mile Nilsson's complaint against the
senile lover WAS preferred in low, sweet tones,
that thrilled the blushing justice, and filed the
Essex Market courtroom with music.
% He annoys me much, your Honor" said the
silver-vCiced queen of song. "He follows me
everywhere. II walk in the street he is at nv
siGe; il enter door he is with me. He fool
isLly believes that he loves me, and that 1 am
essential TO his happiness. Please tell him to
give me peace"
While Mile. Nilsson was thus pleading. moor
ioye-lo1n Buseh's eyes followed every move
meBt OF her lips, and his ears drank In every
sound OF her pellihuous voice. Edging nearer
and nearer 10 his fair enslaver, he seized the
to his tls, kisseeft repeatedly in the eestacy of
his alteration.
He says your Honor" continued the fair
eomplainani, blushing, 50 that 1 must marry
him"

Mademcselle," said the justice, with a smile
- Mr. Busch, shall require you to give bonds
in $500 TO keep the peace toward this lady for
siN months"
1t j. said that the ardent Busch not only fol-
io"Co Mile Nilsson aud annoyed her with silly
speeches, but that on one occasion he actually
STOLE Hiss from her rosy lips. He had pre-
NioUsly gone so lar as To intTude himself into
her private apartments, from which the servants

IN occurring the services of officer Doran, who
