THE "SELKIRK" SCANDAL. Genige McGrady, late member of the crew of the Selkirk, was charged with committing an unnameable offence, on board the Brtilsh ship Selkirk, on thehigh seas on the 13th of February and several other dates.

The following jurars were sworn :-Meurs, 1. P. Madar, S. L. Darby, R. T. Wright, C. H. Thempion, A. Smith, F. H. A. Fookes, and E. Delbanco.
Mr. A. J. Leech, QC. la oreri g the case, stated that the jury had an unpleasant duty to rerform. The prisoner was charged on an ladiet ment of six different counts with committing an unnatural offence on the complainant, F. Cross, on the high sea on board the British ship Selkirk. The

"The Committee do not say that the houses cannot be made fit for human habitation, each in its degree, nor do they say that all the houses included within the limits of the district are, la themselves, defective and Insanitary.
