Attble juncture a man named Lotheiro, Inspector of Nulsauces, stepped up to the Sikh and told him to desist from treating the coolle, adding." You'd better take kim to the station he is doing wrong." This the Sikh did after battering the man some more, and this moming the case came on before Mr. Wodehouse, the Inspector of Nuisances giving evidence in favour of the coolie with the result that his Wonship dismissed the case against the coolle and advised him to bring a charge of ggravated assault against the constable. This the coolle bar so far failed to do.

FROM time to time we receive complaints from subscribers that their copies of the Only Paper in the East are intercepted, especially on the way to various parts of the Peak, and that people who are too mean to subscribe or to come down to the hotel and pay ten cents to the news-boys, will waylay the coolies who dis- tribute the papers, and feloniously make off with our valuable publication. We can under- stand any man being in anxious to read the Telegraph that he will do anything to get and we believe there are some people who haven't gotten cents on earth (though to the Great Hereafter they will get, if not a whole furnace in fell blast) and we also know from gold mine, at any rate a good rellable smelling bitter experience that there are some people so Teutonically economical that they will sit in the Supreme Court day after day waiting in libel actions to come ou, so that they can hear the Telegraph icad out without costing them a cent; as we are on a mission to reform the human race regardless of expense, we will undertake to render all such practices unnecessary.
