SOCRATES, by his discourse on Marriage, so cusp tured his auditoes with the subject, that the married men flew to theirwives, and the bachelors hastened to be wedded ; and " The Spectator" has affirmed, that the word , " wife" is the atom agreeable and delightful name in,natute. The sacred institution, then, of marriage, compasses the dedde eatum of our enjoyment; treating not- only with happiness on tatarbut dispoologthersoal itself to harmonize with bliss hereafter. Previous, however, toentering into this hallowed obligation, it becomes an imperative duty, - not only to-regulate the passions, • but I to cleanse the groseerauene from those impurities which thefree dem of unrestricted pleasure may have entailed upon it. To the neglect of such attention are attributable many of those hapless in- Stances, which, •while they excite the commiseration of .the .he holder, should also impress him with thelear of self-reproach. • loszeriooli habits vcilleffeasinitt the body--a residence in the tro pics will relax the elastic fibre—but more especially does the pre mature infatuation oflouth too frequently compromise the natural dignity into •a state of inanition, from whence- the agonized• snit= firer more than doubts the chance of relief. To all such, then, we address ourselves, Offering hope--energy—muscular strength— lelleity ;nor .our - admires ap - pear questionable, sanctioned as they. are by the multiplied proofs of 20 years successful experience. . The easy cares of married life are sometimes disturbed by the sus :pension of those _blessings which•coneentrate the nuptial wreath —for the female habit is often constitutionally weak—yet it can be strengthened,and deficient energy improved into functional power.' In every case of *syphilitic intrusion, as well as in every relaxa tion of the ,generative economy, we pledge our ability to cure spee dily, and with effect.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE STAR. FIRE IN, WATLING-STREET. THUILTZLL V. SEAUKONT. Ma. Entroa—ln justice to the character of a respectable man, :Mr. Wrigglesworth, who has been. shamefully maligned /in the pro ceedings against an application for a new trial, decided last Thurs- I day, 1 am induced to make known some facts to the Public, through your means, which the rules of Court forbade being re ceived in evidence. It is a lamentable inconsistency, that while the affidavits in support of a rule are.sifted and canvassed, replied to, and opposed by counter-affidavits from the opposite party, the affidavits of such opposite party are precluded from disproof. The speciousness of their connection, the grossness of their falsehood, the infamy of the characters making them, may be capable of com plete exposure by.evidence, but not a word will be received. In this unequal conflict, the artful or dishonest replicant is almost sure to prevail. • In excuse, it is said, that if affidavits in reply were suffered to bt disproved, there would be no end to affidavits. But this is a bad excuse. It need nut be so. If some little additional trouble be required for an examination whether affidavits be true or false, it ought not to be grudged. Substantial truth and justice ought to be the paramount object of all legal investigations, not facility in getting through eaent ur rid of them. Mr. Wrigglesworth became a witness in this cause in the follow ing manner :—On the morning after the trial in the Pleas, last July, a Mr. Edward Bottrel entered the County Fire Office, and informed one of the clerks that he called in consequence of having just seen an account of the trial in the newspapers. He said, that soon after the fire, a man whom he knew, of the name of Brad shaw, had applied to him, and asked hint to make out false invoices for the Thurtells, as of goods sold by hint to them, offering him 30 per cent. on their amount for doing so, which offer he had refused. He wal in consequence introduced to me, when he repeated this statement, and added, that Bradshaw was a man in bad circum stances, and for a sum of money would, no doubt, come forward and ptovc the case against the Tisurtells. I treated this tender as- I . . . had all others from the connexions u. _ give or promise anything, and this piece of evidence re,, ground. He then told me be had 'hewn the account of the tibia to Ik. Wrigglesworth, who had been the manatee at btemr% Margraves, and who, upon reading it exclaimed—" Now thharnie-; der's out! This accounts for Snowden's sales, whith;;always puzzled me;" he lidded, that Mr. Wrigglesworth, who was a very intelligent man, =hose accuracy I might depend, could prove the whole of the on. This, of course, led to an interview with Ala Wrigglesworth, and I found him all that he war described. A word now, on the affidavits of Snowden and Margraves,which to my utter astonishment, the Court bas declared to have " corn- pletely answered " that of Wrigglesworth. Now is it completely answered? In these affidavits there is a long parade of denials of things not affirmed, and of averments which are nat disputed, and some immaterial circumstenats are answered, but all that is mate rial is evaded or admitted. The sum and substance of Wriggles worth's affidavit is, that Thurtell's purchases of goods from Todd's snd Leaf a were clandestinely sold to Margraves, through the agenty of Snowden, and that the invoices on the (tale and thi! re sale were alike. Is any iota of this denied? Does Snowden deny that he sold those goods to Margraves, as agent for l'hurtell?,-- No. Does he venture to swear for whom, if not fur Thurtell, he was agent?—Nn. So much for Snowden, for the present. Well—Do Margraves deny having bought the goods "of Snowden, as agent ?" No. Do they not, by the copies of invoices which they have deli-. raced * cParokorate eetsfirm all that isanetarial in Wriggles worth's affidavit? . UhdoebtedlY they do. The silence of Snowden to the above most important averments of Wrigglesworth is tanta mount to a full confession. This fatal silence was strongly and re peatedly remarked upon by the Chief Justice, while the affidavits were under discussion. How he came the next morning, when de livering judgment, to pass it over as he did, I confess myself unable to explain. The affidavit of one Taylor, that Mr. Wrigglesworth is unde serving of belief on his oath, for which bold assertion he gives no reason, is too contemptible to merit further remark. Affidavits of this description are procurable by the infamous at a few shillings each at any time. Many of this tribe of swearers have been with me, offering to turn upon their employers, if I would pay thecae.- 1 have tee letters now before me, from a fellow of the name of.. which state, that " under certain conditions," he could put me in possession of important information. I saw this Mtn in jail. He told me that he had been employedhy the Thurteile on the former-trial--that they had not paid him as they promised ....and that several firemen were engaged to .swear efalsely against us: that he knew. of owo men who would prove everything I wanted; but he Intimated 'that he must be relieved from his then distress, and he asked me if I•woukl appoint him a fireman or an agent to the office? I refused to give or promise him anything, or to have anything to do wi t h him. Rejected by .me, this man now swears again for his old employers, and affirms that he saw a quantity of bontbasines in the suing of Thurtell's premises, a fact which is denied by every one else. Titeobloquy which was lavished upon Mr. Wrigglesworth by a Learned Serjeant, who is rather remarkable for his latitude of speech, I think was creel. Mr. Wrigglesworth .is A family man, • and has always moved in respectability, and formerly in a higher sphere than at present. He came forward without fee or reward,. or the request, or the promise, of either, to further the ends of pub. lie justice. Are not these ends likely to be defeated, if men cannot : become witnesses without being held up to public scorn? Is it generous to destroy the fame and wound the feelings of a man who is forbidden to speak for himself? I have made inquiry in the City, and find that MieWrigglesworth's character,stands high. Mr.. Kitson, in whose employ he now is, tells me that be has known him, and respected him, for twenty years; that before he es gaged him be inquired of .Ir. alargrave as to his conduct • with him. Mr. Alex grave said that no fault could be found with his integrity and-moot. . conduct, and that be should be happy to promote his views in life. I cannot close this letter without noticing two propositions in the judgment of the Learned• Judge, in which the interest of the public appears to me very materially compromised. One imputes an propriety in indicting the Thurtells and the rest, for. a crime, while an action was pending between one of the parties and the prosecu tor; bow is this impropriety made out? Do not all jurisconsuks agree that the trial of an offender ought to follow the offence as . speedily as may be, so that the facts may be fresh .in recollection ; that the witnesses may be forthcoming; and that 'punishments, when necessary, may succeed to the crime, before the impression which it has created on the Public shall have been forgotten ? If. an action fur debt or damages between panics were a bar to.an in dictment, offenders, on detection, would frequently raise such ac tions to prevent a prosecution, or to gain time, during which a witness might be got out of the way, or to induce the prosecutor tp corn- , promise ; or, if an action were already subsisting means woold be found for protracting it, to delay or defeat a prosecution: I cannot conceive any one good reason for delaying the course of justice on such an account, unless, indeed, in regal dto the prosecutor. He lays hineself open to suspicion and observation in high the suits; and no doubt there have been instances where base characters have instituted criminal charges to intimidate a creditor from pro. seeding in his suit. But these cases are few. • They are always viewed with ample jealousy, and they are open to exposure. They are cases of rare exception, whiffs afford no reasonable grounds for delaying the regular administration of crimuud justice. Will any unprejudiced man say, that the ends of justice would have been served, if we had left the Thurtells to the free exercise of their practices on the Public, until the final disposal of their claim upon the County Office? The other proposition broadly affirms that neither perjury nor conspiracy in witnesses are sufficient grounds for a new trial. Ac cording to this doctrine, if a case be got up against a man by false witnesses, and a verdict be thereby obtained against him, even to the alienation of his whole property—and if, in the interval between tilt verdict and judgment, the sufferer be able to bring to justice, and convict the false witnesses, the corrupt proceeding is yet to stand good—the false judgment is to proceed ; he is not to have the benefit.of a new that, but be must sink under known and proved perjury and conspiracy ! I submit to the dispassionate judgment of the Public, whether this subjugation of property to the power of fraud...tad perjury. is not really appalling ? We know to our sorrow the proverbial uncertainty of the law. We know that, according to the mode of trial In England, the farts - and witnesses intended to be produced, are kept as seclet as puede ag,„ ble, until the hour of display in Court. How then We defendant instanter to disprove perjured statements, and expose unworthy wit- • nesses, if such appear. He cannot—a verdict must go against bitna ' and if, upon proof of the misdoaig, he be not allowed reliefin a new trial, is he not rendered thevictim of legalised injustice? • The reason assigned•for refusing to grant a new trial, upon proof of perjury and conspiracy in the witnesses is, t' at it might encourage false accusations of. witnesses. So flagrant and positive a wrong is to be committed to prevent the chance of another wrong. Ansel-. cellent reason, truly ! But has it never occurred to .our Judges that by rendering a verdict fraudulently procured immovable, an mat conragement far more alarming is given to getters-up of fraudulent cases—and to desperate men to become. their false witnesses? What. . care men of a base description for the ultimate fate of their instru ments, se that they get a verdict and costs ? Into what uncertainty. is the possession of property thrown by the above encouragement?. thus speak of evils which I have suffered under. As repro.. senting the interests of nearly 40,000 persons of property, I coat. plain of the jeopardy in which that property is placed by the .above .doctrines. Already are the crimes of incendiarism and fraudulent claims increasing in an alarming degree : and it anything be done to .give them further encouragement, the sooner hire Insurances be put an end to the better; for the injuries done to life and' pro petty by wilful fire, will then outbalance the value of the indemnity of insurance to honest saffarers.
