A strange MAO of general interest to housekeepers comes from Dublin. It seems 01w:a is there, a "court of consci- erne]" that it is hold by an alderman;. that Irish ladies have trouble with their serving -maids; and that whoa a serv- ant leaves her employer elle may legally demand a " eharaeer." On the 13th £ October, before Alderman Tinley, Eliza Butler, a servant, summoned her late employer, Mr. Wm, Lawson, jewi- ler, Fleet street, for �ti compensation for refusing her a character when site left. But it seems that 'if the waster was a jeweller,' the servant was not a "jewel," and yet sire got a good Betting- out. The 2'wn s says :—" Mr. Lawson saki the plaintiff left of her own accord under such ' circumstances that be thought himself' entitled to refuse a certificate. M:rs, Lawson stated that. while the plaintiff was in -the grouse, there was quite a reign of terror in it, Slie was a girl to whom they could not say' the simplest ` thing without her threatening to leave directly. She came to witness' house very ignorant.;,. the greatest pains were taken to teach her, and: make her as happy and coin- £ortable.,as one of,the children,- and at the present moment` she was standing in •a pair of boots belonging to .witness'. daughter. • She finally got beyond her- self and forgot. herself, and the'chiidrerl.; could not 'ask for water, she would answer ao 'dreadfully. Finally witness: dismissed her, His Lordship dismissed the case, holding thatthe defetrdant's-• action hacl been highly commendable, and that they were notobliged'to give. the plaintiff anything noroltan a cer- tificate stating that she had lined •with them a certain time."',` (;ouncil .Lloom, Irwin's Hall.- ' Nov. all.- Nov. 26th, 1880.
