impropriety with her niece for a period of overj two years both before and after his marriage. Even at this time " Stella "is only 15 years of age, and Mr Dash swears that he has never spoken to her since his marriage. It seems that Mr Dash is a sort of guardian of " Stella," her father and mother being engaged in a suit for separa tion. The evidence of " Stella" herself was of a most sensational and startling kind, and lifted a, little corner of the curtain as regards ike morality of boardiug school life. She swore that duriuj* the past three years she had met Mr Dash many tim&> alone, and had accompanied him to several of the principal hotels in Brighton, including the liedford, the Royal Crescent, and the Gloucester. She had also been with him to private houses, meeting by appointment, and staying with him sometimes for the night. (All this time she whs at school hi Brighton). After his marriage she accompanied him twice to ShoreJiaiji, ;ind hail -d*n met him in Busted Park, near Timbiidge Wells. Two letters wen; produced received by her from Mr Dasli making appointments to meet him. She swore that Lhreo years ago, she then being only 12 years old, she met the prosecutor (Mr Diwb) outside the Grand Hotel and knowing what object Hiey Jiad in view, walked a mile to one of the houses

fhe had referred t<>. .!!;<• said she was not quite certain nL.out ininute circumstances, as there wore so ir.;ii;y meetings, but she was quite an arc that since April 1876 Mr Dash had been married) and the intercourse had been kept up n'itli a Jtiiil knowledge on her part that such was the case : indeed she had felt compassion for him when he had explained to her that his wife was debarred from his society in consequence of her con finement. On one occasion after spending the ni^ht with Mr Dash at an hotel, he drove her to a friend's house and she told her friend where she had been and what had taken place*. Iho v tend was a young lady, a schoolfellow, and she used to tell her. whenever these " little outiugs" occurred, n.nd they used to com pare notes. The iva;! oft wo days' hearing of this case iv;is th:it the magistrates committed l\v,; aunt for UiaJ for the libel, but accepted bail. It seems a most monstrous tiling for a niau to be liable to such accusations if they arc untrue, and at the same time it seems highly improbable that any man would commence an action .for libel if his caae waa not a clear one. At any rate, we have instances —witness the Hatch case—of young girls making horrible accusations ugaiust married men, most likely to save your, g lovers, and the Brighton magistrates seem to think this is; au instance in point. And now I think you will agree -witli mo that we have had a highly-spiced month, oi it. SEEVAMTGALISM. Miss Faithful tells a queer story in the " West London Express " about " servant galism." A lady is in want of a cook. To her there enters one mormng a smartly-dressed young person, who, without being asked, takes a seat in the drawing-room among the ladiesjof the house, and asks abruptly, " What time do you dine ?" " Seven o'clock." " That'll do : I needn't ask any more," says the impudent baggage, rising and leaving the room as un ceremoniously" as she entered it. Seven o'clock dinners mean no nights out, where fore seven o'clock dinners are au abomina tion to cooks. For all that, few people dine until after seven. Male servants are, perhaps, agroater plague than female. This is gwhat happened in a house I know well. Man-servant found drunk one night in the hall has to be put to bod by his master and the cook. Next day hoiis duly reproved, and told that being a. married man with a nice decent body for his wife he shall have a chance of retrieving himself, and if he will take the pledge shall be forgiven ami allowed' to stay in hia place. All the niau servants are strictly charged not to lot him have any beer or other intoxicant. For v. time all goes well, or seems to go well. Then the foed is found to go with preternatural quickness ; then the master's wardrobe gets remark ably empty, and then some of the plate is missing. "Finale, man-servant found drank again. Inquiry reveals that the man's wife has been living perdu in the house for a considerable period, and surreptitiously supplied with food; that man has been sending out for . spirits, purchased with money obtained for .stolen goods. What makes it worse is that all this waa known to the other servants, who had no sense of honour except that spurious form of it which makes it a heinous offence for one to tell of the misdoings of another, however vile.

WAR FEVER AJ3ATING,

The ,war fever ia England has muchly abated:" within the past bvo or three weeks. The " jingoes," a~> the bellicose party have been aptly christened, are beginning to be rather ashamed of the vuigai doggerel which has giveu them their name, and it is dying out in the music halls. The calm heads are again beginning to be visible above the swaying, turbulent crowd of empty brain pans which have buen howling and yelling for blood and thunder. ' Possibly the addi tional 2d on the income tax has had some thing to do with this as well as the formidable list of failures which is to be seen in the commercial columns of the daily papers. And the additional dog tax has spoken lourily to many a work ing man of sporting tendencies, who has no objectfou to smashing •Mr Gladstone's windows, but a very great reluctance to forking out another half-crown annually for his bull terrier or mongrel rabbit courser. Another halfpenny an ounce has also been stuck on by the tobacconists, and this also is a " burning" question, for about two men out of three. Thoughtless people are beginning to feel that we could not fight tor nothing, and if a mere preliminary preparation means all this, what would be the consequence of a big war for three or four years ?
