Se ASS Circuit Court, Chief Justice Cartter—On Saturday the case of Thomas Thompson azt. Alice and Mary Pilling was heard according to argument—Mr. Drury appearing tor the plaintiff, and Messrs. Phillips and Mattingly for the respondents. The facts of the case are as follows: Thompson rented in the year 1559 the premises in question of the Misses Pilling, as a@ yearly tenant. During the past year a six months notice was served on him, to quit the premises at the sl gree of his year, and pre- vious to one month before the end of the year, they caused & one month’s notice to be served in addition to the other, but Thompson refu- sing to comply a jury was summoned under the landlord act of 1793, to try the question whether restitution should be given. At the trial the plaintiff, the Misses Pilling, stated that they were taken by surprise at the absence of & material witness and requested an adjourn. ment Tbis was objected to by Mr. Thompson’s counsel, but the magistrates (Goddard and Barnaclo) adjourned the case. The case was eubsequently tried when both parties appeared and entered fully into their respective cases, and the jury found a verdict in tayer of the Miss Pillings. A writ of certiorari was sued out by Thompson and the record was accordingly certitied by the magistrates to the court. On Saturday Messrs. Mattinglyand Phillips moved to dismiss the writ and Mr. Drury op- posed the motion. The Court decided that the case as presented by Mr. Drury, that it wasa monthly reating, was noteubstantiated by the record or the facts, To pay the rent monthly does not imply a monthly tenancy, but is often done as a conve- nience. It wasnot necessary to decide whether the magistrates had the right to adjourn the ease, as the acquiescence on the partof Thomp- fon in swearing the second jury, :nd the enter- ing into his defense fully on tbe final trial bad waived the irregularity if there was auy. The certiorari was therefore ordered to be dis- missed, thus confirming the action of the jary in ejecting Thompson, from the premises. ee EL Granp Larceny.—On Friday night Serg’t Tait arrested Cesar Smith, col., an’employe in tbe whclesale liquor store of 0, A.

It having come to our knowled ge that imitations of the American Watch have been put upon the market in great numbers, calculated,by their utter worthlessness, to injure the reputation of our genuine products,—to protect our own interests and the public from imposition, we again publish the trade marks by which our Watches may in- variably be known. We manufacture four styles of Watches— The riast has the name “‘AMBRIOAN WATOH OO., Waltham, Mass.”? engraved on the inside plate, The skCOND has the name “ APPLETON, TRAOY & CO., Waltham, Mass.’” engraved on the inside plate, ‘The HID has the pame “P, 8, BARTLETT, Waltham, Mass,” engraved on the inside plate. All the above styles have the name American Watch Qo. painted on the dial, and are warranted in every respect. The FouRTH has the name “WM, ELLERY, Boston, Mass.” engraved on the inside plate, and is not named on the dial, All the above described Watches are made of various sizes, and are sold in geld and silver cases, an may be required. It is hardly possible for us to accurately deseride the numerous imitations to which we have aliu- ded. They are usually inssribed with names so nearly approaching our own as to escape tae ob- servation of the unaceustomed buyer. Bome are represented as made by the “Union Watch Co., of Boston, Maee.”—no such company existing. 8»me@ are named the “Boldier’s Watch.”’ to be sold as oar Fourth or Wm.
