Futter at Weston was discorere3 to be on fire. The propety had' long been in dispute, Ruff has .been for years unoccupied, being one of the oldest buildings in the locality. Itlias long been a refuge for trumps, and was evidently set on fire, but whether wil- fully or accidentally is not known.

After hearing the evidence, Mr. Gibb remanded the prisoners for hearing before Squire Sahlic13auf, of Elgin county, where the theft was committed, who, after takinl,' the evidence, discharged the negro and the two boys and committed Oliver for trial at St. Thomas.

Au ISSPJIITANT DECISION AT THE T0R0NTO • Ass1zES. Thursday, Oct: 2.—A case was de. Bided at the Assizes to-dsy, before Mr: Justice Burton, of some importance to the merohantile eomtnnnity. A. & C. Shields, grocers, of this city, brought eetiou against Shields, Park and others, to recover $10,000 damages for injuries alleged to have been sustained by the misrepresentittiou of the defendants. Sy the evidence it appeared that the de- fendants, in the spring of the present year, harmed a suit against the pteintiffs to recover the sum of $15.000, which was snpposed to have been due the de- feudants, who were acting as executors for the estate of Mr. Shields' deceased. After -the service of the writs it was learned by the defendants that the bond galling for the payment of $15,000, had been cancelled. They therefore cansod farther proceedirgs, The upshot of the snit was that the defendants were rated lower iu Don, Winian's circular, which had the ria- terieliy of injuring their mercantile standing, and for this they cinim the amount of damages set forth. The cols• tentioe of The plaintiffs was that the de- fend'ants never had grounds in the first instance for the action, and they were, therefore, responsible for the fall in their credit. After tho argument of the counsel, his Lordship said: there no evidence to show that the .plaintiffs had been injured by the it:seine of the writs, which had evidently bean issued under the honewt impression that the debt still existed, and there war no evi- dence of malice in the chatter. Hie Lordship therefore ordered a .non -suit: to be entered. LoitSeven Ponnda in Three Weeks. Allan's Anti -Fat ie genuine media eine, and will reduce corpulency from two to five pounds per week.
