Ou-RAoE BY A TnAMP.-On1 Tesa day aflernloon, a tranip, calling him slt' Pat i'ick , wett to the residence of )r. lsajah Simpson, and requested to have something to eat. The lady of the hause kindly granted his request, and gave him a din,upr. But the wor'thless fellowv, far from feeling any gratitude .for Lkhe Jgindness thus shtownt hiin, actedl ini a most dis graceful mannier-breakinag . someIa pieces of crockery, and making o0' with some articles of children's cloth intg. lic was af'ter'wards overtaken on the r'oad by Dr'. Simpson (who was abseut from 1101me at thme tijuc of the Outr'agfe) and thtou takeni in hand by Policemnt Poet. IIo waZs somcw~Vhtt obstreperous wheni first arr'ested, t.hreateing to draw -his p)istol, and ht.4 to be soothted with a wvholesom~e blow ont the sidle of his foolish head. Jity Is ,that lhe htad not suitled much yougher' treat ment. Patrick was commnitted to jail oni a warrmant issued by Trial Jus tice Neil, to await trial in the Court of Sessions. Wheni he was taken to his cell, and the sheiif started to sear'ch htis p.erson, Jho showed some signs .of resistance, but being assured that the searching would be done, -"whether or no,'' he quietly submit .ted.-In view of such outr'ages as this, it might be wo~llfor our Towvn Council to enact an ordhi~amicp that w.ogid pro tect our ladies and children from any ~suchi trouble. Whenever a .ti:amp comes to town,.let hmiim. be put to woi:k on the streets, the Council paying him modoitately for -what he<doce. Shonld he foolishly refuse to work, lot him ,bo put in the guard-house on -bread-amnd water diet oi- .a few .daya. This would bring himn ' to his senses. Tramps are, generally speaking, va grants of the very worst e.hargotor, .and they shoiuldbe treated accordingly.
