There were no sittings in Banco to.day,- Lord Ten, laden, Mr. Justice Baler+• and Mr. Justice Littledele, being engaged in the Home of Lords. --Mr. Justice Bayley sat for, a short time in the early part. of the morning, and disposed of a few common motions. liitdor at NW Prior. in Lagoa, before Mr. Jades Jams Paw and Common Juries. ATKISSON L. KINNRDT. =UQ• Mr. BAOUGHAM (with whom was Mr. Chitty) stated that this, was an action by Mr. Edward Atkinson, an attorney..against Mr. Kennedy, a barrister, to recover a sum of about 861. for professional business done for " the defendant.. The circumstances out of which the present demand arose were these—The plaintiff had been the attorney of a Mr. and Mrs. Curtizos, who were entitled to a life interest in the sum of 1,9801. Three per Cent.. Consols, and the defendant (Mr: Kennedy) being desirous of purchasing the reversion of that interest. ap plied to the plaintiff on the subject, and employed him .to prepare the necessary deeds eif conveyance. tinder the marriage settlement of Mr. and Mn. Curtizos, the Lady was entitled to the dividends of the stock during her life for her separate use, and the husband was ta ckled to a contingent inteiest—namely, in the event of his eutviving his wife he was to take the dividends for -his life. The deed of settlement gave to Mrs. Cutting a power of appointment of the principal of the stoik. Whith power . the had exercised in favour of an only ...child, and the . defendant had purchased that interest. The negotiation for the purchase of the seversion of Mr. and Mrs. Curtizos' interest was carried on for some time, and at length the necessary deeds of conveyance to the defendant were prepared, be having agreed to purchase - 41e reversion of the two interests at 7751. A day bad been appointed for the settlement of the busi ness. bOt before the deeds were executed the defendant discovered that Mr. Cuttiso, had been a bankrupt, and he thin refused to complete thepurchase. He, how ever. imputed no blame to the plaintiff. but on the conitary, expressed himself perfectly satisfied with his conduct i's the business, though he bad since thought peeper to refute payment of the plaintiff's bill of costs, whichafter deducting 141. for spoiled stamps allowed, .amount.-d to about 361. The employment of the plaintiff by the defendant was than proved. as was also , the reasonableness of the charges for the Insitteis done . Bythe cross-examination of one of the witnessei,hostrever, it appeared that Mr. Curtizos had' been a bankrupt in the year 1810, and bad taken the benefit of the fowl- . vent Debtors' Act in 1826, and that the .plaintiff (wh o was the attorney of. Mr. Cortizos) bad knowledge of those facts long prior to the time when the negeciatien for the purchase by the defendant was entered into. It appeared also that the defendant was ignorant of those factsuntil the day before the purchase was to have been completed, and that he then became apprised of the fact of Mr. Ctutizos's bankruptcy by finding his certifi cate among some papers in a tin box in the plaintiff's office. One of the witnesses stated that the plaintiff declared be,did not think it necessary to inform the de fendant of Mr. Curdy's's bankruptcy and insolven4, and that after the discovery of that fact by the defen dant. the latter expressed his readiness to complete the purchase provided the trustees of - the stock wadi make a transfer into his name. One of them, however, ob jected to do so; but the defendant, nevertheless, ex. pressed himself satisfied with the plaintiff's-conduct, and said, that if he had not been satisfied with hies,' be should not have employed him in the business, as he knew_ he was the attorney of Mr. and Mrs. Curtisos. • Mr. CAMPIiLL (with whom was Mr. Hutchinson), in addressing the Jury for the defendant. observed, that. the plaintiff had been guilty of a shameful lunch of duty in suppressing from the knowledge of the defen dant the fact of Mr. Cortizos having been a bankrupt and insolvent prior to the time when the contract in question was entered into. The plaintiff knew, or ought to have known, that Mr. Cerritos's contingent interest in . the stock for which the defiindant bad agreed to give a large sum of money, belonged to hit (Ms. Curtizos'.) as- Signees, and that be could make oo valid .assignment of it to the ddendauC` It was theta gross fraud to aretnpt to sell that which did not beldeg to him; and the ques tion for the Jury to consider was, whether the plain tiff, being the attorney of 'Mr. Curtizos, had not, in conjunction with that gentleman, wilfully withheld the 'communication of those facts which it was so material to the defendant to be apprised of. If they should be of that opinion, then it was clear that the plaintiff could not recover the amount of his bill on the defendant for the business dace; the rule of law being, that if an at torney, through negligence or fraud, conferred no belie icial service upon his elieot, he was entitled to no re muneration. In the present case. it was clear that there. had been either gross negligente - or fraud on the part of the plaintiff. He knew the fact of Mr. Cartier's' bankruptcy and insolvency, and if be bad acted as 'plain honesty or common prudeace dictated, be would have communicated that fait to the defendant. Is. stead of doing so, however, be had allowed the peso ciation to proceed to the very latest period, and had prepared deeds which purported to convey an interest which belonged not to Mr. Curtisos, but to his assignees, for the benefit of his creditors,wbo would have been defrauded if this purchase had bees completed, and the defendant would bane been liable either to pay the twisty a second time to them, or to have given up his conveyance. Under these'circumstances, it was clear that the defendant had derived no benefit from the igtotio. tors Services. but. on the contrary, had Amulet* • 04- iodic,. and be (Mr. Campbell) united. that the irerdiet. of the Jeri in this caet teneld.beve the effect of teach• iog monies who et:defter& to act for _parties bevies opposite interests, to be more eautioesinotlrefi Mode of proceeding, and prevent their attempting tri ie'ddle with. costs those to whom they had tendered no beneficial ier• vice, but who bad rather been prejudiced by their On proper conduct. Mr. Justice Jesse PARR; after recapitulating the, bets to the Jury, observed. that the sole luestion for their consideration was, whether, regard being bad to the nature of the plaintiff's employments and the pur -1 pore for which he was employed, be bad been guilty of such negligence, dishonesty; or other misconduct. as 10 render his services of no benefit to the defendant? lie (the Learned Judge) was not aware of any case that bad expressly decided the point which was raised in this. case; but as at present advised, he thought it his duty to tell the Jury, that if they were satisfied that the plaintiff bad been guilty of such misconduct as (re gard being had to the nature and purpose of • his employment) had deprived the defendant of all beoeficial service. the latter was, in point of law, en; tided to a verdict. It certainly appeared that the plaintiff bad come-into Court, suing for a bill in re.' spec' of business done, for which the defendant had derived no benefit. He was aware at the commence ment of the business that Mr. Ctirtizos was in a 'Wit don which rendered him incompetent to make a valid conveyance of the property' he had contracted to sr% and the question was, whether the nonCommonication, of that fact to the defendant arose from dishonesty. ignorance, or the hope of being able ultimately to pro. cure the consent of the assignees to the conveyance' to the defendant? The Jury would take the whole .of the circumstances into their consideration; and' they would also consider the evidence which had been given with respect to the supposed waver of the. ob jection on•the pan of the defendant; and also the 41•• fendant's expression of satisfattion at the plaintiff's conduct,which, however, bad reference, probably, to the commeneement of the employment, and not to the, con. elusion; and if they should be of opinion that the defendant had thrived no beneficial service from to plaintiff's employment,owing to the mode in whichtbe business bad been conducted, they would return a vie. diet for the defendant. The Jury, 'after little hesitation, foind fir thi defendant. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, NAT 20.

Mr. Sergeant %toe and Mr. Sergeant Russet'. yesterday contended that the defendant having ill treated bit wife and turned her nut of doors, had clothed her with credit far *necessaries; and althoigh she bad ob. , Wined a decree for alimony in the Spiritual COurts. yet Inaimuch as the alimony had Dot been paid, the decree did not discharge the husband's liability. He was there. fore bound to discharge the debts which she inctured for necessaries, and he might stopihe amount out of the arrears which he owed to his wife. Mr. Sergeant SPAM= aid Mr. Serge ant ped this morning in support of thtu.that the positive legal remedy which this decree furnished extinguished the implied right of contracting debts on the husband's credit. The parties who trusted the wife thereby put themselves in her place. and might enforce the decree. The law treated a man and wife, who were divorced a naiad those, in many respects as distinct parties. havingl separate and distinct rights and privileges, although 4 1 • did net go so far as it did in the case of a divorce a am., ark merino/ii. For instance, a man living apart front his wife, in consequence, of - a divorce a mensa d thoto ) ' could not, if be married' another woman, be convicted of bigamy; and the children of persons so separated;' born after the divorce, were illegitimate. This showed that the principles which applied to a husband under I other circumstances, were not applicable in cases where the parties were separated under a decree of this kind. Oa the ground also of public convenience and decotunt the common law courts ought not to interfere; for in cases of this'kund there was always much scandal,wbich was greedily sought after by a large portion of the] public. It was enough, therefore, to have one discussion on the subject in Doctors' Commons, without dragging the parties before the 'public again and again in the King's Bench and Common Pleas. The parties ought therefore to be left to enforce their decreee; and until the remedies afforded by the Ecclesiastical Courts were exhausted, the common law should hold its hand. The COOK? were unanimously of opinion that the hus band was liable to this action. - The first question was, whether or not the decree for alimony was an answer to this demand ? and the second. whether the goods, supplied to the Lady were necessaries ? The Jury bad found that the defendant had struck his wife, and turned her out of doors. Now, if a man turned his wife out of doors, he gave her a general credit upon him for every thing that was necessary to het rank. He had con moved to maintain' her, and in this case he was or dered to maintain her. But he had neither fulfilled his contract nor obeyed the order ; and being gene rally liable (ocher maintenance, be could only relieve himself from 'ouch liability by fulfilling his contract or obeying the order. If she were paid the money, she would then have the means of procuring necessaries for herself, and he would not be liable. But here he did not pay the'money, and if he discharged the present bills, be would still not have paid a third of the arrears,' from which he was at liberty to deduct the amount. It was said that the Lady might, if she pleased, go into , the Ecclesiastical Courts, and enforce the decree; but was she to starve in the meantime? and if not. what were the trainmen to do? The defendant, therefore, was clearly liable for . necessaries supplied to the wife.' Then came the second gagstion, were these articles of -4 •4 est necessaries? The Jury fOOlid the/ Wilts. They did not thitk.tbat a Lady. the daughter of a Marquis,who brought her husband 6,0001. fortune, was' bound tossuintwa lotting, but that it was St she should rake a bolisV Obeid a 'so, she mutt have a bed to be on, chairs to sit -on, and a table to eat off, &c. and they even found ihat the articles in question were necessary and suitable for a woman having an income of 3801 a year, without reference to•her rank. • Undt r all the circumstances. therefore. the defendant having turned , bit wife out of doors—the divorce having been fro seamed in consequence of adultery on his. part—the decree for alimony not having been obeyed—and the articles in question being suitable and necessary to the situation of the Lady, the action was clearly,maintain able, and the rule fora nonsuitatust be discharged.

UNION MALL Yesterday two deceit looking lads; who gave their names lessee, was charged by Mr. Arnold, landlord of the Crown and Sceptre, Brixton. with having robbed him of a silk handkerchief. The complainant intimated that be should not have appeared to Iprosecute the prisoners for the offence with which he charged them a u trl ir not been ea public grounds, owing to the numberless robberies of a similar description that were committed on the very spot where be had been robbed. Gangs of juvenile thieves were constantly lurking about the place he alluded to. by whom great numbers of people were hustled and robbed. lir. Arnold then stated that on the preceding evening, as be was passing over illackfriars-bridge, he felt a band in his coat pocket, and en turn ing round sharply, observed one prisoner pass a silk handkerchief ' to the other. He seized both of them at the moment, and found his silk handkerchief in the possession of the one to hom it had hem handed.
