His Lordship now, therefore, ordered this witness to be committed-to the custody i f the Warden of the Fleet till the end of the present sit tings. He should commit the next offender for a spe cific period —The witness begged his Lordship to over look the offence. Mr. Sergeant JONZS and Mr. RICHARD!, the defen dant's Counsel, begged to call his Lordship's attention to the exact words spoken by the witness. They be lieved that he did not %weir that he said he came for his son, bat only that the fact was so. His Lomita , appealed to the Jury, who, having answer•d that they agreed with his Lordship as to the witness's words, his Lordship said he should not now alter his Aetermination. If the witness should, after having had time to reflect upon the offence that he had committed, express his contrition and ask pardon, he ntight be induced to extend to him some mitigation of the punishment. The witness was then taken in cusody. ARCHRS COURT, Datisiiii Before Sir Joint Naomi; HAMIIRTON V. HAMIIRTON. The Cortex decided on the hearing of this case, that the evidence was not sufficient to entitle Major Hamer ton to the relief for which he prayed, but at the same time directed the case to stand over, to allow the hus band to adduce further proof in support of his prayer. At the sitting of the Court this day the Proctor for Mrs. Hamerton moved the Court to pronounce its sen tence, and dismiss the witelrom the effect of the citation. Dr. LUVHINGTON, on the put of Major, Hammon, said he had only to repeat what he bad stated on a for mer day. that every diligence was used to bring forward new evidence w hich the Court might deem satisfactoty. The Juuoa said he bed already explained the grounds on which he considered that the justice of the case re quired that the husband should have further time to adduce evidence to establish his claim to a divorce.— The same reasons still operated on the mind of. the Court, and he therefore directed that the case should stand over to the first Session of nest term, observing, Oat if some step was not then taken on behalf of Major HamertOn to bring forward new evidence, the Court would consider itself bound to dismiss Mrs. Hamerton ham the suit.

When this case was called on, Mr.Tusastostt applied that it m;ght be postponed, on accoubt of the absence of Mr. William Bennett etephenum, who was a necessary and material evidence for the defence.
