I O'Reilly, member of the Armed I °f hulary, deposed stopping Brislin with I (JonetaP j Q Greyhound yard, on I*a the Istinst- at a cluarter past eight Si»W'. £j, e morning. He interrogated 9<c ■ n the subject, when he told him he rJ' s'i° beer from'the bar, and pointed out H^ sent defendant, as the man who had him with the beer, and to whom he Is 4d for the same. H raes Brislen, who trembled, with agita • cave his evidence in a nervous style, t10?' ° a nn derstood to say that he knew de tot as M* Corcoran's barman. He lived nd waS yis^e^ by tnree thirsty bona £ travellers, who were dying apparently "beer. He was prompted purely by bene- feelings in the matter, and rather I the men should die in his house, if beer old save them, volunteered to fetch four The defendant served him and took pints. *■"■ Michael Corcoran, deposed that he was the hodJord of the Greyhound Hotel, and that pendant had been in his employ as barman, Lsixanda half years. He ordered him jima months ago, not to sell beer or any jther liquor on a Sunday.^ When the beer •as sold, he himself was in bed and knew jothing of the matter. Mr BTesketh said that Mr Corcoran was ,oi aware of the sale, and he could show by fitness that the barman had a narrow es -pe of losing his situation.

His Worship said that somebody was res ponsible, but it would not be right to convict ]Ir, Corcoran, if the barman stole the beer, lliich was not disproved, as Mr Corcoran did not take any money out of the bar that jay. He should like to see such an altera jjon in the Act, as would allow publicans to open for a short time for the sale of what is ailed dinner beer. By such a concession a pest deal of perjury and wrong-doing would ie avoided. This was a matter of great im portance, not only to publicans but to the mblic generally, he would therefore look jirefally into the case, and give judgment at (Bother time, --ft He must say that he had been perfectly astonished at the difficulties to be met with in the carrying out of the law in respect of Sunday trading. He hoped the law wonld be plain upon the matter ; he be lieved the least of two evils would be to allow publicans a limited time on Sundays for sup plying the puolic with beer. He would give JlrHesketh notice of the day when he should Is prepared to give judgment.

THE HYDASPES. — ANOTHER CASE OF FEVER

We are sorry to learn that another case of fever has broken out at the quarantine station. The sufferer is one of Slyfield's children (the immigrant who was recently pronounced convalescent from the same disease.) This untoward event will neces sitate the detention of the immigrants for another period. It was intended to remove the single men and women immediately, but in the face of further evidence that the disease has not been stamped out, we fear the authorities will have no alternative but to keep them until this new developement of the disease is eradicated.
