Ik- connneetion with the notice which appears over leader to-day, the following case which, was heard at Queanbeyan before His Honor Judge MoFauland will be interesting: — " Gale v. Haptor. — Plaintiff claimed £1 7s 6d, subscription to the Queanbeyan Age, and stated that he brought the action to test whether a subscriber could stop bis paper without paying all arrears. Defendant had given notice to discontinue his paper prior to the end of the quarter, but he had failed to pay his subscription to that period. He did, however, pay early in the ensuing quarter, when he began to send his paper back through the post and otherwise. Defendant's contention was that the plaintiff ought to have sent him his account before the end oi the quarter, when h» would have paid what was due. His Honor held that it was the defendant's place to have gone to the plaintiff's office and ascertained and paid what was due, and, not having done this, he was clearly liable for the amount claimed. He gave a verdict for the full amount." "
