Mr. Cam stated that this was sus action, to recover damages for criminal conversation had by the defen dant with the plaintiff's wife. Mr. Lont.ow said, the plaintiff resided at Newp and was master of a vessel carrying goads from that place to Bristol. .The defendant was rather his supe rior in wealth and statics, at he kept an inn at New port, and commanded a vessel which carried not only goods, but passengers, Oa the same voyage, and which, before the introduction of steam-boats, was used as a conveyance by persons of respectable circumstances in life. On the 29th of October last, the wife of the plain tiff, having had occasion to go to Bristol on the business of her husband, returned by the defendant's vessel. In the evening the swat ran a-ground; and during the time in which the Captain's assistance was not required on deck, he came to the bird) where Mrs. Rees was re posing, and shared it with her for the remainder of the night. Under these circumstances, the Jury could hardly doubt that the criminal intercourse had taken place which was the foundation of the present action. The plaintiff had certainly no means of shewing what degree of seduction had been emplo ; ed to desiroy the virtue of his wife; but at all events, the Captain ought to have considered her as under his protection while on board his vessel, and rather to have defended her from the insults of others than sought himself to betray her. She had four children by a former husband; Mr. Ran had the like number of children by a former wife; and this large family was now left without the benefits of a mother's example and care. The plaintiff did not ask for extravagant damages; but he was entitled to a tea• sonable compensation for the loss of that domestic comfort which the misconduct of the defendant had deprived him of. William Matthews produced a copy of the register of the mar riage of Charles Bets, widower, with Eliza Burley, widow, at the parish of Alonethusloycn, in Monmouthshire, on the Zd of September, 1821. John Merrick said he was present at the marriage, and identified the parties. They lived at Newport together. On cross-examination, the witness said Mrs. Rees was the widow of Francis Burley. He heard Charles Rees ask her the day after the marriage, if Bob was to come back, whether she would go to Mm ?—(A She replied, " Of course I should go and see him, but I don't know whether I should stop with •him." The witness did not know who Bob was. He had heard Mrs. Rees my, that Rees was the fourth—(great laughter)—but did not hear whether she bad any husband living. Margaret Lewis said she lived at Newport. Mr. Sayer was the Captain of the Tredegar, a vessel navi gating with passengers between Ne port and Bristol. She had often gone by it ; and many respectable people went in it. On the 29th of October, she was a passen ger in it from Bristol to Newport. There were several cabin passengers. Mrs. Rees came on board early in the evening. On coming on board, she went into one qf the births in the cabin. Captain Sayer afterwards entered it, about one o'clock in the night. He said he wanted to go to rest. Some one in the cabin said Mrs. Rees was in his bed. He then sat down on the bench, leaning his head on the table, for three-quarters of an hour. After this, he said something about getting bet ter rest, and went towards his bed. Mrs. Rees said, "If you are coming here, I will get out." Captain Sayer replied, " You may stop where you be, woman, lam came enough"—(4 laugh.) She had enough of time to come out ;he did not make any hurry. I was obliged to get out of his way, and he then went into the birth where Mrs. Res was, having taken off his hat and his shoes, but nothing else. The birth is shut Off from the cab it I closed the door partly, it was neither shut nor wide ope,t. Mr. Lentow—Did you ever know him to go to bed before ? The witness—Never, Sir, with any woman—(A laugh). Mr. Lenaow—l mean to bed at aU? Witness-0 yin, Sir, very often. The births were all full at the time except this. Capt ain Sayer keeps the Green Dragon, at New port, is married, and has several children. Cross-examined by Mr. CAMPBZLL—The cabin was very full of furniture; all the beds were not full of Christians, but of something. We left Bristol between 10 and 11 at night, and Mrs. Rees came down into the cabin soon after. I had not observed Captain Sayer speak to her before she went into the cabin. When she went into her birth, Mr. Rees had all her clothes on, incept her bonnet and shawl. There were from eight to twelve passengers, some sitting, and others reclining in the room ; some talking, some asleep. I had gone several times before, and the Captain staid on deck, but once before the vessel grounded, and he lay on the cabin Boor. The Captain was very tired and vexed when he came into the cabin. When he rose to go to his birth, he was sleepy. He seemed to me to bz thinking of sleep, and nothing else. I was close to the door the whole night, and the door was left ajar. I could bear a noise in the Captain's birth, but I heard noise. I did aot look in. I think if anything had been out of the way I mast have beard it. There was a lighted candle on the table in the cabin, and a little fire the whole night; the light went into the birth. I observed no thing extraordinary in the appearance of the parties the nest morning. We paid a shilling to go, and a shilling to return. Roustansined—l did not sleep nor dem the whole night. I was alckly—not am-sick. When the door was open, the birth was open; the deer was six or eight inches, or more, open: Mr. William Matthews said he served the defendant with process on the 15th of November. The defendant said he ought to have answered the attorney's letter, and it was a bad job. The witness asked what he meant to do in it? " Oh," said he, 44 I must settle it ;it shall be settled." Mr. George Thomas said, he kept the White Lion, at Newport, next door to the plaintiff, and knew him. He teemed to live very comfortably with his wife. The plaintiff, in October or November, slept at his house till his wife threatened him with a knife, and then she was Oaken away, and he went back to his own Mouse. Cresommileall.—Mr. Bees did net sleep every night at his• bassal her amedast to the navigation of boats. Ann Richards said she knew the plaintiff and his wife, and had known Mrs. Rees when she was Mrs. Burley. Mr. and Mrs. Rees lived comfortably, except a quarrel now and then about the children.

Mr. TAUNTON submitted that the plaintiff must be nonsuited, as he bad wholly tailed to prove the criminal i after mares, THE ' The they, dints intercourse. Mr. Justice LITTLLDALI said, that he could not with draw the conversation with the attorney's clerk from the Jury. Without that there was no case at all; for it was too much to presume an improper connexion from the circumstances which occurred in the vessel. Mr. Taoism said he would address the Jury if they desired it. The Jury, however, after consulting for two or three minutes, said they were satisfied, and returned a verdict for the defendant.
