RESIDENT MAGISTRATE'S COURT.
Monday, Jan. 25. (Before M. Fitzgerald, Esq., J.P.) J. K. Tattjm was fined 10s. and costs 6s. 6d. for non-attendance at drill aa a militiaman on the previous Tuesday. James Symes was fined in a similar sum for the like offence. Charles Allen was fined in the cost of the summons for the like offence. Tuesday, Jan. 26. (Before J. H. Campbell, Esq., E.M.) William Faulkner was fined inf the cost of the summons for a similar offence. Herewhitau, a native, was fined ss. for drunkenness. Nicholas George, a sailor, was charged with furious riding, but was fined only in the cost of the summons. It appeared that the defendant, who is a foreigner and spoke English very imperfectly, had taken a horse for a ride, and, never having been across one before, and the horse running away with him, he found himself all adrift until brought up by the ruthless hands of the police. The Bench, however, thought the case one for the exercise of clemency, and so Jack got very comfortably out of the scrape.
