I ( • i. i ~ c' k'' -t • , ' was aSsent I lodged at Mr. Richards's. He joined me io a few days after at Birmingham, and we went to S...lmoutli, whet e we took a house for four months. This s, as in the latter end of 1821. He introduced me there as his wife. His health was bad, and lie did not go much int., society. With the exception of oi.e or two short inter vats of absence, 'A e remained these until his last jrcitirey to Wimslotv. While at Sidmouth, I had a svcrind daughter, who died also.. I had after wards a roarer child, a bay, win is the present plaintiff. He is ten months old. During the time I was at Sidmouth, I%lr. Finney went twice to see his mother. He was with me on both occasions when I lay in. After my son was born, Mr. Finney said, " What a pity it was that e had not been married again in England." Ile had relieaiedly propo:erl that to me. I asked him, " Was I married then ?" Ile said, " Yes, by the laws of Scot land." I said, . 4 Then I consider myself mairied." 1 thought that ill wa• married again publicly, it would be thouelit in Sidmouth that nothing had occurred be fore. He made the observation a day or two after my son was born. He said that he feared his son would not inherit his e:tate. Hari it been in Scotland, he ob. served, the case would have been different. I did not remain yrite a month in Sidmouth after my son was born. Mr. Finney was then very much declining in htalth.. Ile made a IA ill, which he brought in to me while I was in bed ; he desired me to look at it, and I declined doing so. The child was baptised by the name of Peter Davetvoit Finney. Mr. Finney set out for Winslow very soon atter this, in a bad state of health, and he died at Staff .rd on the . way. I went direct to where 1 was received by his mother, and have lived with her ever since. Mr. Finney was always very attentive to rte ; Ife was quite attached to me. Cross-exainined by Mr. BROUG . IIAM-1 am now 24. years of age; when first I consented to marry Mr. Finney, I was only 19; I do not recollect the day of the month we were it:allied. I m ide a memorandum of the day, but I have not brcught it here. Mr. Finney made no memorandum of the day that I know of. Mary Wilmot examined—l have been in the service of Mr. and Mrs. Finney ; I went with them to Greenock ; we arrive] there on the Saturday ; on the following Sunday morning, I was sent by Mr. Finney for a prayer-book, which was in a carpet-bag in the bed-rtioni ; I brought it, and gave it to Mr. Finney ; I was going to leave the room ; he told me I must not leave the room, that I was to stop. Mr. and Mrs. Fin ney both stood up, and Mr. Finney began to read the, marriage ceremony; I cannot remember exactly what' he said, but if the book were shewn to me I could. Witness then read that part of the marriage ceremony to which the preceding witness releired, and said that s!le heard Mr. Finney read that part, and both of them male the responses. In my presence, the same day, Mr. Finney addressed her as Mrs. Finney. They slept together on the night of the ceremony. Thomas M'Lellan, waiter at the White Hart, in Greenock, in the month of September, 1821, recollected Mrs. Finney and the last witness coming to the house with a Gentleman who was in bad health. The Gen tleman called her Mrs. Finney in his presence. Had seen the Lady in Court that day, and is quite sure she is the same. The Lady and Gentleman occupied one bed-room. Oa the Monday he pat ticularly recollected hearing Mr. Finney address her ak Mrs. Finney. They apixared to treat each other as man and wife. James Walker, formerly the landlord of the White Hart, at Greenock, gave evidence to the same effect as the last witness. Mrs. Deakin lived at Birmingham with Mr. Richards, as housekeeper. Knew that Mr Finneylad left Bir- Minghain to marry the present Mrs. Finney. Some time after that the Lady returned to Mr. Richards's. Mr. Finney was not with her, but he came a day or two atter. Witness let him in. Witness was born in Dum fries. When she lee in Mr. Finney, he asked her whether she had not some property of his in the house? Witness did not at first understand him. He then asked whether his wile was not in the house? Witness said she was.— pMr. Finney observed he bad been to witness's country to get married. and that tke ceremony was performed there. Mr. Finney then went to Mrs. Finney, and after that they passed in the house as man and wife. Witness has known people married in Scotland in their own on n houses. She knows the names of several families moiled in Scotland in that way. The way was, the Gentleman asked the Lady whether she would become his wile, and if she answered in the affirmative, they af terwards passed as man and wile,and were so considered. Thomas StokeS Hodge, who had been a surgeon at Sidmouth twenty years, attended Mr. and Mrs. Finney professionally, Mr. Finney always in witness's presence called her Mrs. Finney, or his wife, and was extremely kind to her. Witness attended Mrs. Finney on her several confinements at S.dinouth. She then had a son. Upon the birth of the child, witness went down to Mr. Finney, and wished him joy of his having a son and heir. Mr. Finney seemed very much rejoiced that it was a boy. "I am glad," said Ire, 66 it is a boy, for it is of some consequence;" and he asked witness to dine with him. Copies were then put in of the register of the births and baptism of the two 'children, at Sidmouth, as the children of Peter Mem- port limey and Mary Anne Finney, and also a copy of the entry ut the funer.ll of the daughter. The - will of old Mt. Finney was then proved and put in. It was tinder the settlement of the estate in this will that both the parties claimed the estate, which was said to be worth about X 1,200 a.year. Mr. Campbell, a Writer to the Signet in Scotland, was examined as to the received law of Scotland, upon the subject of marriage. Nlr. BROUGHAM objected to the evidence of this witness ou such csubject. • Mr. Justice ilotativn was of opinion, that the witness was com petent to give evidence as to the law of Scotland, though he was aware that similar cases had occurreu in which tills objection was made. lie would, therefore, take his evidence, and would also make a note of the objection. Mr. Campbell's examination then proceeded. He was in the habit of answering cases on marriages according to the Scotch laws,. There was no particular form ne cessary to constitute a valid marriage in Scotland. The presence of a Priest was not necessary to render a mar riage valid: Persons might be mauled in Scotland by the mere expression of the cement of the , parties given before witness. He conceived that an engagement to iti•tr.ry, where a subsequent copula had taken place, and an acknowledgment was male by the parties that they were titan and wife, would constitute a good marriage in Scotland. A copy of Mr. Erskine's Institutes was handed to_the witness, and he said that that book was invariably received as a book of authority by the Judges of Scotland. A passage was then read from the book, importing, " that t, of parties was essential to niatriage in Scotland; that such -Ither express or tacit ; that the ceremony might clergyman, but neither was it essential that it WI a Clergyman, or repeated at all; that the eon given before a Civil Magistrate 4.r witnesses . was might be expressed in a wri.ten document ; that ttowlestgment of the parties themselrs was loin. ly made; and that marriage was to he pee-caned ,herFtlep'artitsw,:te teputt.d to be matt midwife. • 111 r. Campbell stated. that the passage just cited was undoubtedly the law of . Scotland at this day. An ab. sttact of reported cases taken from the reports of the faculty, was then shewn to witness, and his attention, was directed to the case of M'Adam,which fie stated to be correct as far as he knew. The substance of that case was, that Mr. s . liAdam tonic Miss Walker by the hand, and acknowledged hefore.his servants that she was his wife,and that his children were lawful children. The day that acknowledgment was made M'Adam put an end to himself. Witness stated that he was acquainted with the family, and that the children were now enjoying a fine estate. Witness had his attention particularly directed to, the subject of mat riages inScotland,as,three or four years ago, he had been agent to the Crown when questions arose as to whether parties could be divot ced in Scot land who had married in England ? Mr. BROUGHAM rose at four o'clock to address the Jut y for the defendants, and in a most eloquent speech commented for two hours on the evidence. He con tended that all the pi incipal witnesses were deeply interested in the issue of this trial, and that they were assisted by conspit ators; that not one of the whole, par ticularly the Lady calling herself Mrs. Finney. deserved to be ci edited ; and that the snairiage was altogether trumped up, for the purpose of tricking the heir-at law out of his rights. That heir was a relative of the late Mr. Finney, a poor boy, who s had no other prospect to look to; whereas, whatever way the verdict went, it would not deprive the lessor of the plaintiff from the enjoyment of a considerable portion of the late Mr. Finnev's personalty, amounting tr, about 20,0001. which that Gentleman left him by his will. He then called the attention of the Jury to the singular circumstance, that the late Mr. Finney made his will . after the sup. posed marriage in Scotland, and yet thAt in bequeath ing a provision for his son, the lessor of the plaintiff, he described him as the illegitimate son of Mary Anne! Williams, of Chester, and treated him in every respect in his will in the same way that he treated another illegitimate .son, for whom lie made an exactly similar provision, with reciprocal cross-remainders in case of the death of either. Mr. Arroanev-Gzszara. replied, and contended that the evi• dence was perfectly consistent, and that it was too much to ask the Jury to believe it'd they were all perjured. With respect to the will, it Was an unfinished instrument, and at hest it only spoke the opinion of the testator, that his marriage in Scotland was not a good one; but that opinion was not to set aside the law of Scotland, or the legal consequences flowing front it in England. Mr. Justice lim.sovn summed up the evidence at considerable length, and the Jury, without any hesitation, found for the plaintiff. The trial lasted from nine in the nromingtill half-past nine at night. Another trial took place, wherein a spirit-merchant, named M4Minnes, brought an action against a person named Wilson, for an assault and false imprisonment. It appeared that the plaintiff and the defendant quar relled about a wager which was made at the Westmor land Races, when the defendant stripped his coat off, and challenged plaintiff to fight; plaintiff went across the street, some one said, Dog him out, dog him out." Wilson, and a man named Taylor, followed kim out. A witness, named Robinson, said he saw a bit of a hubbub, the plaintiff was lying on his back, and a man standing over him with his hand on his breast; he was holding him fast down ; they (the lookers on) called him Wilson. Plaintiff said to witness, 44 Dick, thou wilt not see me used so, wilt .thou?" and I staid "No, that I won't; I won't have such works as that"— ( A laugh), and called to bins to let him go ; so he let go—(A laugh)—he abused Mm about some wager at the Races. On his cross-examination by Mr. Braugham, he said—He had a sup himself. They are jolly folks in 'Westmoiland—(Losighter).—A little will not do for our county ; they loves a good drop. Mr. Brougham knows that—(Repeated laughter).—At the point of the finger they would take a glass, and so would some folks who hold up their fingers (alluding to Mr. Brougham, who was pointing his fingers as he was cross-examining the witness)—(ll9eatecl laughter that shook the Court).—Sometimes a single glass is not enow ; often takes it by the gross-4 Laughter). Mr. Baounnasi addressed the Jury, observing; that the plaintiff had made out a very pretty case, and that if an assault had been committed, it was just deserving of a farthing damages, and which damages the Jury returned as a verdict for the plaintiff. A case was tried, wherein an attorney, named War dle, had brought an action ag ainst a Mr. Parkinson, to recover the amount of his bill of costs. A witness having proved that the defendant, at the Quarter Ses .ions, acknowledged the plaintiff as his attorney, Isa bella Wilson was examined—She said she was on a visit to the plaintiff at his house; he asked her to assist him with his brief; this was in 1823; can't say if the plain - tiff was without a desk; she assisted him to copy the brief; it was three sheets long; she copied two or three sheets—(Brief put in and handed to the young Lady). She helped the plaintiff ; he examined it, and made two or three corrections—(A laugh).—The Jury found for the plaintiff—Damages 61.105. and costs 40s. STAFFORD, MARCH 12. ROWLEY O.IIOIRNIL This was an action by Mr. Rowley, a farmer residing near Woore, in Staffordshire, against the proprietors of the Chester mail, to recover the value of a parcel containing Bank notes to the amount of 511.- sent by that coach to London, and k,st during the journey.— The delivery and loss of the parcel w ere not cr.,puted; but the defendants retied on a notice inserted in the Chester Chronicle, that they would not be answerable .4 for any parcel of any value," unless entered and paid for at a rate beyond the ordinary price of carriage.— This notice was at the foot of an advertisement occu pying a whole column, which enumerated the coaches starting from the Feathers Inn, Chester, and applied generally to them all. In order to shew that this ad vertisement was brought within the knowledge of Mr. Rowley, it was proved that the Chester Chronicle had been regularly sent to his house from February, 1821, to March, 1824.; but the delivery ceased at the latter date, nine months before the transmission of this parti cular parcel, which tonk place on the 28th of December last. No evidence was given to shew that he hinbelf ever read the Paper; but his daughter had been at sc!rool near Chester, and afterwards remained to finish her education in a seminary near London, so that it was probable he knew something of the Chester mail, by which he bad sent parcels. Upon this evidence, Mr. TA UNTON, for the defendant, contended that the plaintiff could not recover. The Jury, after a kw minutes' consideration, returned a verdict for the plaintiff—Da"mages 511.

One of them contains an article from the Oriental Spectator of the 20th of January, on the affairs of the Greeks, which is as veracious as its statements usually are. We are told that the typhus fever prevails at Napoli di Romania, a owing to the rebellion of the Greeks, and the scarcity which it has produced ;" that COLOCOTRONI was entrenched between Modon and Ar gos, and was approaching Napoli ; that 16 of the Egyp tian fleet had arrived at Modon, and 36 had sailed for Patras ; that the Viceroy of EGYPT was fitting out a new expedition against them ; and lastly, that a consi derable European naval force is on the point of appear ing before Napoli, for injuries done to the commerce of its nations. All of which the Editor of the Oriental Spectator will find some difficulty in making arty one believe. • Accounts froni Berlin state, that the King of Pnus- SIA has confirmed the promotion of his Privy Coun sellor, FERDINAND AUGUST SPIEGEL, to the dignity of Archbishop of Cologne. He has taken the oath of allegiance and fidelity, which the superior Catholic Clergy have to take to his MAJESTY, in the usual form. The French PApers of Mond..y, and private letters from Paris, of that date, have been received. The lat ter state that the utmost bustle prevails there, that the .inttrviews between the French Ministers and the Rus sian Ambassadors are frequent, and that couriers are continually sending off to St. Petersburgh. The fol lowing is an extract from the Eloik of Monday: PARIS, MARCH it. It is announced that the troops which, at the desire of King Ferdinand, remained in Spain after the (time fised fur the) evacuation, will depart _on the Ist of April. Two French squadrons will be stationed on the coats of Galicia and in the Bay of Biscay. The Duke of NotthumLerland, Ambassador Extra , ordinary from his Britannic Majesty fot the certmony of the Coronation, has just hired, it is said, the Hotel of Gallifit to receive him and his numerous suite. If we may believe the accounts that are circulated, nothing can be compared to the magnificence which his Grace will display on this occasion. Besides the richest fur niture, and splendid service of plate, which is ♦alued at about 100,0001. sterling (2,500 2 0000, he brings, in the suite of his family, and of several relations of the Du chess, twelve Gentlemen, and four Secretaries, twelve maitres d'hotel, and a number :of domestics in propor tion to the state he means to display." The contest for the office of President of the United States is at length terminated by the election of Joni QUINCY ADAMS. The numbers at the close of the pros ceedings stood as follows :—For Mr. ADAMS, 13 ; Ge neral JACKSON, 7; Mr. CRAWFORD, 4. This is only the second time,since the period of American Independence, that the election for the office of President his devolved on the House of Representatives. The other case was in the struggle between Mr; JEFFIIRSON and Colonel AARON BURR, in 1801. The new President is the son of Joni; ADAMS, the President who succeeded General WAstriNci in, and is a man of great experience and liberal principles. In Blackwood's Magazine, which contains some of the best articles that have appeared on the United States; Mr. ARAMs is said. to be " one of the ablest statesmen and most profound scholars of the age."
