Hatter was a lessee of &house owned by Herbert, and after several unsuccessful attempts to induce them vacate the premises, Mrs. Herbert one day visited, the house, and with •a broom handle, broke the svinclows, . as an incentive to their moving out.

While the externaination of the insects and fringis is necessary and desired, yet we think the government is going to unnecessary expense in employing two men—while one could, perform the work—one as an advance agent to announce the comin,g of the other, and further, it appears to be an injustice that these government offici- als, paid a good salary by the govern - men t, •should interfere with the sale of goods carried by local merchants.
