Shortly after the sitting of the Court this morning, Mr. ‘Vellesley addressed the Lord Chancellor, and said he understood that a petition of his, respecting his children, was put in the paper for the purpose of being heard to-day. As he (Mr. Wellesley) did not mean to appear by counsel, he was anxious to proceed at once with the petition. The Lord Chancellor—Do you say, Mr. Wellesley, that you do not mean to appear by Counsel ? Mr. Wellesley—l do, my Lord, and lam now ready to go on. The petition is in the list for to-day. Upon inquiry it was ascertained from the registrar that the petition was not in the paper. Mr. Beames said that upon his application on behalf et Mr. Wellesley, his Lordship had ordered that the petition► should be heard to-day. The Lord Chancellor asked Mr. Home whether hewn prepared to oppose the petition. Mr. Home said that he had no instructions. The Solicitor-General—l appear to oppose the petition, and am ready to go on now. The Lord Chancellor suggested that as there were some gentlemen from common law courts in attendance, the matter ought to stand over for their convenience. Mr. Wellesley urged that the petition might'be heard to-morrow morning, as it was of the utmost importance to his children. It was finally arranged that the matter should be heard at the sitting of the court on Friday. COCKERELL V. MORRIS. This was an appeal from a decree pronounced by the late Master of the Rolls, Sir William Grant, which di rected that an account should be taken of the effects of Mr. Devynes, a bankrupt. His Lordship, after recounting the various proceedings that had taken place in this long and tedious suit, said he could see no grounds that could justify him in reversing the decree pronounced by Sir W. Grant ; and that therefore his judgment was that the de cree already pronounced should be confirmed. Mr. Treslove hoped his Lordship would include the costs attending this unnecessary appeal. The Lord Chancellor - Moat certainly. WILFORI) V. BULKELEY. The Court proceeded to hear counsel in this cause for a new trial, upon an issue directed by this Court. The Lord Chancellor did not suppose any ground was made for the new ti ial, and therefore refused the motion. KEEPER OF THE PRIVY SEAL. The Earl of Rosslvn, in open Court, took the usual oath, that by virtue of his office, as keeper of the privy seal, he should not use any influence he might possess, to the injury of the church as by law established, or the bishops. COURT OF KING'S BRNCH, Jinx IS. DELIVERY OF CORN-EVANS V. FORSTER AND ANOTHER. This action was brought to recover a sum of money claimed fur demurrage. The plaintiff complained that the defendants, as con.-ignees of a quantity of corn which arrived in the port of London, did not take it out of the ship within the time allowed by the custom of the corn trade, for delivery. The question was, whether the cus tom in the port of London, with respect to the delivery of corn, required the consignees to take it out of the ship on the third Monday after the arrival of the corn, or whether the consignee was allowed a day or two, after the third Monday had expiredt Mr. Gurney, as counsel for the plaintiff, contended tl:at his client was entitled to demand a claim of nine guineas, the loss sustained by detention of his ship three days after the corn ought to have been delivered. The defendants, who were corn factors, carrying on business to a great extent in the city of London, must have ample proof of the custom of corn dealers, and he would defy them to prove, to the satisfaction of the jury, that a consignee had any right to keep a cargo ou board after the expiration of the third Monday. The learned counsel finally called two captains of ships in the corn trade, who stated that the custom in the port of London was to de liver vessels on the third Monday, and that the consignee was liable to pay damage for every day . after the third day. The Attorney-General addressed the Jury for the de fendants, and contended that the consignee, according to the custom of the trade, might wait two or three days after the expiration of the third sale day. Custom required the consignee to deliver within a reasonable time, and as the defendants delivered this on the Thursday after the third market day, they were within reasonable time. Mr. Thomas Redhouse, a ship .broker in the City, said he had been twenty-eight years accustomed to the corn trade in the port of London. The custom was to allow the consignee three market days for the purpose of sel ling his cargo, and a reasonable time for delivery. He had never known any demand made for demurrage where the cargo had not been delivered until three days after the third Monday. Lord Tenterden left the jury to saywhether the period allowed for delivery had been complied with. The jury found a verdict for the plaintiff—Damages Nine Guineas. The verdict is subject to a point of law reserved in the case. CAPE!. V. WIIrTTICK. The plaintiff, a coal merchant, sought to recover a bill for coals sold to the defendant and another person named 11 Aberd, who carried on business at Milbank. The jury found a verdict for £7l 11s. 64. NASH V. OLIVER. 'Ms w•as an action upon a bill of exchange for 1031. accepted by the defendant, and payable six months after date. Mr. Gurney endeavoured to destroy the validity of the bill, by stating an usurious transaction between the de fendant and a person named Cullen, who keeps the Swan, at Hampton. It appeared from Colien's evidence, that Oliver, who was at work for the King at Windsor, could not get his money, and he applied to Cullen for the loan of:1001. The money was advanced upon Oliver's bill, but when the bill became due was renewed by the pay ment of 21. to Cullen. The latter being pressed by Mr. Nash, the plaintiff, to Whom he was debtor to the amount of 401. Oliver said if Nash would draw• upon him for 1001. at six months, he would pay the money, as he then towed 9hver 1001. The bill was drawn, and 60/. paid over to liver by Nash. Collen never told Nash how much Oliver had been pa) ing to him fur renewal of his bill. . Lord Tenterden held that the bill in the hands of the, plaintiff had not been in the least invalidated, and the jury found for the plaintiff—Damages 1091. Is. REEVES V. STAMMERS. Mr. Platt, for the plaintiff, said this was an action for M. Bs. for goods sold and delivered, and work done for the defendant. The plaintiff had, it appeared, supplied th^ defendant with trousers and other articles of wearing apparel: The trousers were furnished about May, 1827. Several witnesses were called to prove the delivery of the articles, The jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff: Damages 3/. DIXON V. DUNIPACE. Mr. Gurney said the plaintiff was a miler at Witham, in Essex, and had consigned se:•eral backs of flour to the NM, defendant. The question now was, whether the defen dants had paid the full amount of the value of the dour ? The delivery of the flour having been admitted, Mr. Campbell, for the defendant, said that the only dispute was, whether a sum of 261. 10s. was paid on the 26th August? • A witness was then called, and underwent a long exa mination, from which it appeared that the case was merely one of a disputed account. Verdict for the plaintiff : Damages 261. 10s. LABRAM V. STEERS. This was an action to recover a sum of money lent by the plaintiff to the defendant; the amount sought to be recovered was 3701. The parties were relatives. Mr. Common Sergeant was proceeding to state the par ticulars of the case, when he was interrupted by Lord Tenterden, who suggested whether it would not be better to refer a ll the matters and differences. - ---- Both parties agreeing, a verdict was taken for the plaintiff accordingly. COURT OF COMMON PLIAS, JOLT 25. CHIN. CON.-CHERER V. MARRIOTT. Mr. Sergeant Wilde, on the part of the plaintiff, stated the case. It was an action brought by Mr. Henry Joseph Cherer against the defendant, to recover from him com pensation in damages for a criminal conversation with the plaintiff's wife. The plaintiff was now thirty years of age, and at the time of the marriage was little more than twenty-one. The plaintiff was brought up to the Man chester business, and became acquainted with the lady who afterwards became; his wife, at the house of the lady who brought him up. This lady was most respectably con nected. After the parties had been some time acquainted, they were married in 1824, and lived together until 1827. There were two or three children by the marriage, but they are dead. In 1827 some differences arose, in con sequence of the bad temper of the lady, and these ended in a separation. The lady's conduct had been perfectly good until she became acquainted with the defendant. In the latter end of 1827 she was introduced to him. He knew she was a married woman. This introduction ended in their living together as man and wife. Some remon strances were made against this, and they separated in consequence : but in a little time they again lived to- Igether and have continued to do so until the present time. I The Learned Counsel then proceeded to call the evidence. The marriage was regularly proved. Mrs. Harker deposed to Mr. and Mrs. Cherer living on affectionate terms up to 1827, when a separation took place between them in consequence of the tempers of both disagreeing. Miss Martha Wakefield—l know Mr. and Mrs. Cherer, the former from his birth, and the latter since her mar riage ; I saw them a few months after that. I remember their going to Buckinghamshire, and I saw them only twice before then. I also remember their return from thence in 1827. I remember after their return some dif ferences arising between them, and their separation. I visited Mrs. Cberer in St. Alban's-place, at the time Mr. Cherer left her. She appeared to be living there in a perfectly decorous manner ; temper, and differences aris ing therefrom were the causes of the separation. Cross-examined by Mr. Sergeant Lawes—He left her, and not she him. I do not know whether he paid the rent when he left her ; he provided no means for her, for she had a private income of her own, left her by her uncle. After some other witnesses had been examined, Mr. Sergeant Lewes then addressed the Jury for the defendant, and said there was a great variety of cases of this description, and it behoved the jury particularly to inquire into the character of the parties. In this instance, though the husband had deserted his wife, it appeared that she loved him once and had loved him ever since, and it was most likely that his own conduct had been the cause of the unhappy difference. From all that appeared, the wife might have been lett to starve if it had not been for the defendant, as her husband had not troubled himself about her, though she was lying on a bed of sickness, and was abandoned to sorrow and despair. He (the learned counsel) indeed thought he might go so far as to say that a husband who left his wife in such a manner was not entitled to any damages. Ha then commented upon the evidence, and contended there was nothing to prove that Mr. Cherer had taken the least trouble in inquiring after his wife. It was proved in evidence that Mr. Cherer bad said he could not again live with his wife, and therefore he thought it inconsistent for him to claim compensation for the loss ofher. Under all the circumstances, he contended the smallest damages would meet the justice of the case. Mr. Justice Park, in summing up the evidence, said it had often been a subject of regret to him that, by the law of England, an adulterer could not be punished ; but so it was, and they must administer it as they found it. The learned Judge then told the jury that as they could not punish the defendant, all that remained was to award a proper compensation to the plaintiff, but he did not think it was a case for excessive damages. The jury consulted for a few minutes, and then found a verdict for the plaintiff---Damages, £25. LONDON SESSIONS, July 15. These Sessions commenced this day before the Lord Mayor, the Recorder, and a Bench of Aldermen. REFUSAL TO SUPPORT A WIFE BY REASON OF ADULTERY. The Common-Sergeant applied to the Court to confirm an order made by one of the city magistrates to compel a person named Flinton to support his wife. The learned gentleman stated the husband did not refuse on account of poverty, or any of the ordinary motives which influenced men to live separately from and without assisting their wives. He was a respectable man, and perfectly capable of giving the required support ; but he refused because she lived in adultery with a man. This was certainly a very natural and reasonable objection ; but it would not hold good in law, nor indeed would it be consistent with the public good that such a principle should be recognised however serviceable it might prove to the husband. Mr. Flinton contended that y, was borne out by the law in refusing to maintain her. The Recorder—Certainly there is no law of the kind that I am acquainted with. Th, Co►mnon Sergeant said that the husband had put a mistaken construction upon the act, in which it was statod that a husband was bound to give his wife lawful support, or maintenance. This sentence was translated into an authority not to give support or maintenance in this case, inasmuch as the wife, having been guilty of an un lawful act, removed herself from the protection of the law. The Recorder—That would be a thing, if it existed, of which very loose women would take advantage. The moment a husband wished to part from his wife, or the wife from him, it would only be necessary to show that the wife lived in adultery, and the parish would have to take the burthen upon their shoulders. The Common Sergeant said that the defendant had cited some cases, but there appeared to be no analogy. The Recorder said the defendant was certainly bound to support his wife. The parish were not to support her ; and if the husband were justified in refusing she might be a total outcast ; she was not guilty of murder, and must not be starved to death. Order confirmed, with power to refer specially to the Court of KEng's Bench. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. --alim--. NEWMARKET JULY MEETING. Newmarket, Wednesday Inky. Much 10o—T. TX.

Yesterday the contest for the Prise Matches at Wrestling and Single-stick, which had been thrown in the hack ground on Tues. day tram the state of the weather, was resumed at these grounds. The play was peculiarly fine. James Rook and Wrayfoed came in contact in the single play, and the match 'imbed the highest interest ; bet the time allowed being only eight minutes. no fall was made. The keg-tallied of contest betwixt Frank Olver and Trewicke came off also in the single play ; and notwithstanding the eatraordinary strength of the latter, he was compelled to succumb to the fine science of the farmer, and tossed himself on his hack when least expected. The veteran Wrayford, after his fine turn with Rook, threw Stone, of Devon, and another, thus making himself a standard. Sambell, much against his iaclinattoa , and without any discredit to himself. was thrown by Samuel &oer. who,' with Book, Cann, Giver. Wrayford.

Oliver Cromwell was lately committed to Notting ham gaol as a rogue and vagabond ! A dreadful accident happened yesterday morning, about five o'clock, a little below the Penitentiary, Mill bank, and to which three parsons in the prime of life have fallen victims. Three young men, named Collins,' Jones, and Tate, inhabitants of Lambeth, had gone to Millbsak for the purpose of bathing, when, after they had been about half an hour in the water, one of the yoaag Elea, in attempting to swim, got out of his depth, and instantly called out for assistance ; the other two immediately went to his rescue, when, melancholy to relate, they all perished. Several watermen instantly pulled to the place, and they succeeded in finding the three bodies, which were fast locked in each other's arms. 'An inquest was held on the bodies yesterday morning, at the Camden Arms, Millbank. The first witness exa mined was William Ross, who deposed that he was a vraterman, plying at Lambeth ; that that morning, about a quarter past four, he was going to the Red-house, Bat tersea, with some goods, and agreed to take the deceased youths'as far as the Penitentiary, Millbank, where they expressed their intention or bathing, and he was to take them upon his return home; on his return, however, he found they were drowned. "Another waterman deposed, that he heard them cry for assistance, but when he ar rived at the spot he could find no traces of them ; he, however, with the assistance of some other waterman, found the bodies imbedded in the mud, and fast locked in each other's arms. No other evidence was adduced, and the jury returned a verdict of Accidental Death. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

It is not at all surprising that the prices of the different kinds of grain in Mark-lane should be heavy, and the price lower, as no less than 50,0001. were paid in money for duties on foreign grain yesterday morning, at the Custom-house. Still further and larger importations are looked for, and it is supposed that, in consequence of the decline in price, next week there will be an increase of duty. BIRTHS.
