He was in her bed-room one day, but the painter was then mending the window ; she was lying o the bed with her clothes on. He was in her room in Sloane-street, but then there was always a ruing girl by ; he used to give her the medicines and attend her as her servant. He attended her in Sr. limes's street. He wed afterwards to go there for money she owed him. !tensed to walk by her side when it rained Lolling the umbrella over her, and the she might take hod of his elbow. She went to lodge hi Nylon square ; he went into service there. Mrs. Mills keens the King's Arms, Sloane-street. She recollects in A tigust, 1823, the defendant brought a lady, Iry farce into her parlour. Soon after two women and a man came, and they put her in a strait-waistcoat, ancl. she Was removed in that condition. Catherine Rogers was servant at tht plaintiff's. O'Connor was - there frequently; he never was in Mrs. Smyth's bed-room; he might have been alone with her in the sitting-room, hut that-was accessible at all times to the company in ere bons's. Mr. Frow, the solicitor of the plaintiff, said, part of the mbney for the former maintenance of Mrs. S was_ paid to him by the defendant's attorney, at the rate et two guineas per week. This was the case for the Rlaintiff. Mr. Serjeant VAUGHAN, for the defendant, said , th e seeson was now arrived, ss;ren it became his duty to address them on the part of the defendant. Tiie case was opened to them as one imputing adultery to the husband, a most wicked suggestion, and that, too, with a woman of 50 years of age; and they were led to sup pose that to gratify that passion he treated with cruelty and inhumanity the womsti he had the misfortune to be married to in 1822, and all that without any cause. The question was, whether the husband was bound to pay two guineas per week far. his wife? In some of the general principles he agreed with his Learned Brother,, because the husband was bound to provide suitable ne- , cessaries for the wile, according to his situation in life. In this case they would have the Jury to believe the defendant to be a very beast, committing adultery un der the very nose of his wife; that he cruelly beat her, and actually made his house a brothel ; and that he exercised his cruelty and inhumanity to such a degree, that she cculd not remain any longer. There was one very important fact kept carefully out of the cause—that the defendant had sent notices to the different tradesmen at their peril to give his wife ere. dit, and that the plaintiff himself was served with one. Mr. Sheppard, Register Clerk of the - Consistory Court, proved the proceedings of the Court in Smyth v. Smyth, and the Court's decree of alimony. Thomas Payee—ls a Police Officer; he paid the defendant's wile 15/. as alimony, in December, 1824. Ile knew and saw her in April, 1823. He saw her first in bed in her husband's house. Mrs. Neale was . in the room. Witness was •here to see that nothing was removed out of the house in the defendant's ab sence. She sent down staits for him ; when he came and knocked at the door, she asked if he was the officer? he said yes ; and then she told him to come in. She was lying in bed, with the clothes below her waist. She said to Mrs. Neale, that it would be • • • • a • He told her such language was very improper. She left the defendant's house that night, and the defendant gave her a ten pound note. She i.anted to kiss her husband befote she went to the lodgings she had taken. The notice to the plaintiff not to trust the defendant's wife, failed to he proved, as the person who served it on the plaintiff could not speak to the contents of it. Mrs. Neale knows the defendant and his wife slnce April,lß23. She went into their service. She never thought Mrs. Smyth a lady, nor a married woman, she put on so much paint—(A laugh). Mr. Serjeant VACUIIAN.—I believe many a married lady does the same. Witness.—But she had a double portion—(A laugh). Witness always thought from her convetsation, and her scolding and abusing her husband, that she was a strange sort of woman, and that she was cracked. She used often to curse and abuse her husband in his absence, calling him a brute. She, on a Sunday, used to be singing and making a noise in the house; and seeing her husband with a •.ertain coat o, she used to call him Guy Faui—(A laugh). She us n ed to lay often aTh day in bed, and wanted witness to tell her her fortune on the cards, to some of which she gave ridiculous names. She vets not ill, she used to eat double; wit ness has taken her np a beef-steak and a bottle of wine, of which she used to 'see no more than the empty dishes and bottle. On the first of May once, she wanted to make a large pot of broth and have all the sweeps into the parlour to dance. Witno - s told her, if she did, all the people would think her mad. She would keep wit ness in her room all day reading love-letters to her, and afterwards she would complain of witness's being idle. She never saw the defendant angry with her, except on the night she was going to set the house on fire. She never received ill-treatment from hint ; his only fault was that he was too kind to her. She tan away three times before O'Connor came. The d Pendant, about that time, fell from his horse on his head, and was very ill. All that O'Connor said was false ; there was nothing snore between the defendant and her, with respect to improper liberties, than she had with him—(meaning the Le rued Serjeant)—(A laugh). O'Connor did say, if Mrs. S. was his wife he would mend her or end h, r, so d— his tags. He often abused her and called her a .faggot, and said defendant was to be pitied in having I such a wife. Dr. Richardson saw her before • she was sent to Kelly House. Her husband being then ill, she -..vs she would wear when 1 talked about the pretty weepers she wouiu wear violet' '' ;he was gone. She used to talk to witness of her beauty, which got her two husbands. She was fond of strong 1 . beer, and one day she mixed some fly-poison which was it on the mantel - piece with some of this beer and gave it . to the boy who lived in the house. He was near dying of it, and Dr. Thorrias attended hin.. i Cross-esamined.—Hir name is Julia, and she is a widow. She ) Is an Irish woman, and does not wish to deny eme her country — She (A laugh). She never wa s before so many Gentln before. does not pretend to much modesty. The defendant was a pattern 1 . , of kindness to his wife. When witness was in his room the door was . never locked. Two or three Medical Gentlemen ga v e evidence as to the state of Ws. Smyth's mind , wh ich did not directly impeach her sanity. Anne Baskerville—ls a married woman, and lived with the defendant and his wife in November, 1822, till • March, 1823. They were then living in Milbank- street.

THE PLAGUE. -The following at: extracts from the Official Report ofithe Fever which appeared on board his Majesty's s' ip Bann, on the coast of Africa, anal amongst the Detachment of Royal Marines, in he Island of Ascen ,io:l, in 1823, to which we alluded in our leading arti cle of yesterday. It is written by Dr. Burnett, one of the Commissioners of the Medical Department of his Majesty's Navy : . His Majesty's slonp Bann anchoted off Free Town, Sierra Leone, on the I lth J'anuary, 1823, and con tinued there until the 25th of March, her ship's com pany on board being in excellent health. On this day, one case of fever, having severe inflammatory symp tom's, was put on the sick list, and the patient died on the 30th, the fifth day of his illness. On the 26th, the master and two seamen wet:: attacked in the same man ner, and recovered. On the '27th, the Bann sailed froyn Sierra Leone; but previous to her doing so (on the 19th of March) she had sent her pinnace to assist in 'ringing to the anchorage the-Caroline, a vessel which, having been loaded with timber in a very swampy si tuation, about thirty miles up the river of Sierra Leone, had lost by a fever, which, at its commencement, and, for many weeks afterwards , wa s the usual remittent fever of the country, at least fifteen of her crew. This ship had moved down the river from Free Town toCape Sierra Leone, on the 13th of March, a distance of six or seven "miles, to be ready to_ sail for England, before the Bann boarded her, but was obliged to return, being very leaky. Between this time and the 31st of March, three more cases occurred on board the Bann. On the 31st, one case of the same kind was added to the list; and on the 3d of April, four more of her people were seized with the same complaint. From this time the sick list rapidly increased, and, according to the account of Captain Phillips, be ginning forward in the ship, came gradually. to the after part e till nearly all the officers and men were at tacked; indeed, when it ceased at Ascension, only about sixteen had escaped of the whole of the officers and ship's company. The total number attacked was ninety nine, of whom thirty.four died, fifteen before the Bann reached Ascension. It is stated by the surgeon, that at l the time of sailing from Sierra Leone, the weather was leery hot and sultry, and subseqirently became cloudy with occasional heavy showers of rain, accompanied by thunder and lightning, indicating the approach of the tornado season. The thermometer stood at about 78 to 80 degrees daring the day,becoming about two degrees lower than usual in the night; but from the dampness of the air, the impression of cold on the feelingrwas greater than that which was indicated by the mercury, and pro duced a sensation of chill in the night. The ship was ordered to St. Thomas's, but from the unhealthy state of the crew, and the bad .heather, it was deemed ad 'Amble to proceed directly to the Island of Ascension ; and on her arrival at that place on the 25th of April, tents were immediately erected on shore at the distance of nearly five hundred yards from the garrison, with which all intercourse was interdicted, and the whole of the sick, amounting to forty-five, labouring under the prevailing fever, were landed, and placed in the tents provided for them. ' In this voyage to Ascension, the Bann was accom panied by a Spanish schooner, named the San Raphael, which she had detained off iThydabb, in September, 1822, having on board , one hundred and fifty slaves, and which arrived in the river of Sierra Leone in De cember following. During the interval, Captain Phil lips had, at different times, put into this vessel a com-, missioned officer, two midshipmen, an assistant sur geon, and twenty men, all of whom returned per• let tly well. The schooner, while lying off Free Town, was an. chimed very close to the Caroline, a timber ship , after that vessel, from becoming leaky, returned to be re paired. The schooner was sent up to Benn's Island, in the river Sierra Leone, about thirty miles above Free Town, to have her bottom repaired, but no sickness took place in consequence: and while the Bann lay in the river, the schooner was sent, with a Lieutenant and forty men, to reconnoitre the Galinas, and was absent on this service about a • fortnight, during which time four of her then suffered severe attacks of fever ; none, however, died, and they returned generally in good health or convalescent; and it was after this cruise she anchored near the Caroline, and, consequently, be fore the fever appeared in the Bann. The fever, according to the testimony of the sur geon, made its appearance first on board this schooner; and this vessel suffered more in proportion to the num ber of her crew than the Bann, fifteen being at dif ferent times attacked on board of her ; indeed, Captain Phillips states, that every person on board, excepting Mr. Crockat, the second master, and the Portuguese Pot, was taken ill, and removed to the Bann, and l that the number taken ill on board of the schooner in the early part of the disease was so great, that at one time he was determined to destroy her but that, on fur ther consideration, he decided on taking all the Euro-1 peans out of her, excepting the second master, pilot,l and two seamen, sending a proportionate number ofl blacks to assist in navigating her, and . after he had so done no sickness prevailed. The Island of Ascension was first occupied as a gar rison in the year 1815, on the exile of Napoleon Bona parte to St. Helena. It has been - said that this island was always particularly healthy, previous to the ap pearance of the fever which followed the Bann's visit to it in 1823. This statement is evidently erroneous, for I find, on reference to the journals of the medical officers, who at different times had charge of the garrison be- fore the appearance of the late epidemic, an abstract of which is in the Appendix, that not only has dysen. tery and hepatitis been very prevalent, as well as occa sio Al attacks cf fever, but likewise that a fever, called t he bilious remittent, in the year 1818, attacke d every man on the island,which the assistant surgeon attri butes to an unusually wet turtle season, when the men are much exposed, by watching at night to win those animals. Moreover, there is in the journal of Mr. Robert Malcolm, tor 1818, a case of t'is disea e, which commenced on the Ist of Jai e, and terminated by death the next day, with all the symptoms of yellow suffusion_ and black vornitratc. w hich are said peculiarly to characterize the yellow fever ; and having hewn this case to the surgeon of the Bann, tow in London, he declares it to he exactly similar to the cases o: He bad fever which lately proved so fatal in the Bann, and amongst the marines at Ascension. It also appears, from the abstract above mentioned, that out of one hundred and thirty-two cases of disease, which are re corded in these journals, twelve died and nineteen were invalided; and, though perhaps all the fatal cases are inserted in the inrnals, it•is well known that those do cuments seldom contain above a third of the cases which actually occur. - With respect to the period immediately preceding the fever in question, Mr. Thompson, the medical officer, who had charge, informs me t ." thspt though they were on the whole very healthy, yet they were by no means exempt from disease." At the time of the Bann's arri val, in 1823, the marines were in good health, and the garrison consisted-of thirty-five officers and men, inde pendent of the women and children. The report of Mr. Thompson, the medical officer of the garrison, states, that the appearance ot the fever amongst them is dated eighteen days after the arrival of the Bann, viz. on the 11th of May; but.he adds, however, that one of the people was attacked as early as the 28th of April with symptoms of fever, which he then thought might be it mild cue of the Bann's, which was scarcely above two days after the landing of the 'sick. The man thus attacked was a, convalescent on the 7th of May. Oa the 11th of May, a boy (son of one of the serjeants) was violently attacked , and ulti mately died ; but it is neither known nor believed that he had any nearer communication with the sick of the. Bann than passing daily at no great distance from the tents to feed his father's poultry, and he was never on board that ship. Up to this time the restricions on the intercourse between the ship herself and the garri son had not been much attended to, and certainly not at all as regards the communication of the garrison with each other ; several things, such as sideboards, &c. hail been landed- from- the Bann, which had been brought by -her from Sierra Leone, and some of the officers and men had gone on board that ship (after the sick were landed. to the sale ot the effects of some de ceased person. From this time, however, every proper precaution was taken for preventing the extension of disease to the outposts ; notwithstanding which, six men, two women, and seven children, were taken ill at Springs, but fortunately none at the Green Mom. , tain, though one of the men belonging to that post had been on board the Bann, at the sale before mentioned. Some days after the arrival of the Bann, Captain Phil. lips took up his residence at Springs ; but, though he was much indisposed with a low fever, both the surgeon of the Bairn and the assistant of the garrison are of opi• nion that he did not suffer from the preiailing fever. About this time, the fever in the Bann bad nearly ceased; but it went on, daily attacking some of the garrison ; and it appears by the official report,- that I twenty•eight were taken ill, of which number fifteen died, and thirteen recovered. Independently of the officers and marines above stated, tvco boys were at tacked, both of whom died; and of six women four died ; seven children likewise suffered attacks of this fever, all of whom recovered ; but unfortunately, three youner children, the eldest being only four months old, died from want of their usual sustenance, after the demise of their mothers. While the Bann remained at the Island of Ascen sion, his Majesty's sloop Driver arrived at the same place, from the African station, in perfect health ; the latter vessel bad previously been in the river of Sierra Leone, subject to the same causes as the Bann, so far as Captain Phillips knows; but he is not acquainted whether she had communication with the Caroline timber ship. Soon after her arrival at Ascension, two clerks were sent on board the Bann, one of them to act as purser, and the other to make up the accounts of Captain Phillips ; one died with fever, the other was seized with a bilious attack, of which he recovered; while Lieutenant King and Mr. Sinclair, who visited the Balm at the same time, both escaped. It appears, by the official returns from the Driver, however, that three in the whole were taken ill with the prevailing fever, two of whom were sent on shore , and one died lon b oard; and the Captain very properly put to see, and used every precaution ; and with these three cases the disease ceased. Whoever reads the preceding history of the progressi of this diseauson board the Bann, and her tender the Safi Raphael, and also in the Island of Ascension, will I have no difficulty in coming to the conclusion, that it was, without any doubt, a contagious fever ; but with respect to its having originated from the alleged corn: munieation with the Caroline, I am decidedly of, opinion that it did not, for reasons which will hereafter be adduced. Before, however, proceeding farther, I wish it to be distinctly understood, that I have always considered the yellow fever, in COMM with fevers of other countries, may, and does, under particular circum stances, such as a great many sick being confined in a small ill-ventilated place, where due attention cannot be paid to cleanliness, &c. acquire the prof erty of com municating itself to others; but my firm belief is, that the yellow fever is seldom or never ab origine a conta gious disease; and this opinion, I am convinced, is con formable to reason and truth, as I think it will be in my power distinctly to sliew in this Report. Regarding the Caroline, I have to state, that this. ship sailed from Malta on the 26th September, and ar rived at Siesta Leone on the 3d of Noirember, in per fect health s she proceeded up the river on the 12th and 13th, and loaded her cargo of wood, chiefly at the factory of Tomboo Island, about thirty miles above Free Town, lying the whole of the time in a very low swampy situation, surrounded by mangroves. About a month after she had been at Tomboo Island, she be came sickly, and, according to the report of the Me dical Officer of the Army, eight men were admitted into the general hospital, with the-usual remittent.fever of the country in the course of a fortnight. of which eight men, tour died. On the 28th of January, she drove from her anchors, and got on shore, but was hove off in about six hours, by the assistance of other vessels. (TO be continued).

The complainant is a Frenchman, and the defend- ant a German. They are both working-jewellers, and engaged at' the same board, with Mr. Hasluck, of Hatton-Garden. The Frenchman was perpetually singinic such national songs as were calculated to funk the German's temper.
