A Loudon paper has (he iollomnp:— Comical oases are sometimes heard in Police Courts. Ayoung man presented himself at Woohvioh Couit tho other day, acoompaniod by a young woman, to ask advice. Ho said;— I married this young lady on Tuesday, and went to live at her house, Itook my goods to malto tho place imirocomfortebhyand next day the brokers came in and took everything belonging to both of us. They said it was for rent, and the lady admits there was something owing, though she did not tell mo so before we wore married; and what I want to know is whether the brokers have any right to seize ray thing's for her debts. Mr Maraham—No doubt iltey havo. When you marry a lady you havo her'debts yourself. Applicant—this is a jolly hard law. Mr Maraham-Evorybody is supposed to know it, You would be liable just the same for the support of her children if sho had any, applicant —Oh, 1 know .that; she was a widow with -four (laughter). But to take my. furniture just as I had got it ready for them was more than I bargained for. The wife—Couldn't wo got back his mother's clock? Mr Maraham—You can get back all by paying the rent. Applicant—Well the rent is paid now, and we haye nothing left but the youngsters and an old pot to boil potatoes in (laughter), But wo will make another start, and I daresay we shall do all right. Mr Maraham—Yes 1 ; mako a fresh start.
