Pell and Eraser v. Butler, claim £15. This acUon wa3 brought 'for alleged interfering with vested rights. Similar evidence to that in the former case was given.

'Certainly, my dear gill. Do you want me to— ah— to kick him ?" * No, I guess that won't be necessary. If you just stand near him, he'll think ho sees a donkey, and he won't wait to be kicked.' 'Can you tell me,' f,n,'d a rich you.r,' fop. to a pooi- but luuutiful girl, ' why it is that ladies nowadays look so much to money in the matter of muriate? She looked him coolly over and answered, 'I (suppose it is because they so seldom find anything else in a mail worth having.' An instance of how an entirely false impression can be formed of a district, is given by the following extract from the Dnnecliu Si.ir;— A HokiiiUn letter pbeed jit onr disposal has the following passayo : ' ' Life on this part of the coast is not an unmixed blessing. Mr . wbo formerly resided near Dunediu, has had the house he intended living in burned down, and his cattle have boon shot at. Special | police protection has now been sent to ' this part of Hie district..' " The paragraph probably refers to a resident of the Paringa, who recently inserted a letter in our columns complaining of a bullock having Ivp-i wounded with shot. We are not K*are of any other e'ronmitaneo the paragraph can refer to. The Westland j police know nothing about it. — West Coast Time*.
