LAW INTELLIGENCE. CONSISTORY COURT, JULY 28. COOKE V. SQUIRE. This was a suit for nullity of marriage, by reason of impotency. The suit was brought by the husband against his wife; and, in consequence of the ex tremely delicate nature of the evidence, was heard by Lord STOWELL in the dining-room of the hall ad joining the College of Advocates, all persons, ex cepting the Counsel and proctors for the parties, being excluded. The physical defects of the wife were explained by the evidence of Sir Astley Cooper. The case occupied an hour and a half in hearing, and the Judge deferred the conclusion of the cause for the sake of allowing time for the production of fur ther evidence, and of subjecting the party proceeded against to a surgical examination. TILE MARQUIS OF DONEGAL V. MAY, FALSELY CALLED MARCHIONESS OF DONEGAL. This case has been already more than once before the Public. It is a suit of nullity of marriage, by reason of minority, the marriage having been cele brated so long ago as the year 1795, and there being issue by it several children, all of whom will, of course, be illegitimated should the original contract be set aside. Collusion between the two noble par ties was charged to have taken place on a former hearing of the cause, and the argument was to-day to have been fully entered into ; but Dr. SWABEY took an objection to the jurisdiction of the Court. His party (Mr. A. Chichester, M.P.), who was die next in succession to the entailed estate, in case the marriage should be declared invalid, had already appeared under protest, alleging that he was not liable in a suit of the present description (which could only immediately concern the Marquis and Marchioness) to be made a party, by beiiil called upon to see proceedings. But the citation set forth that the Marchioness of Donegal was of the parish of St. James, in the county of Middlesex, and therefore within the jurisdiction of the Consistory Court of London. It was sworn, however, in the proceedings, that she had resided for the four years last past, and was now resident, in Ireland. This circumstance, therefore, took the case entirely out of the local jurisdiction of the Court ; and the Learned Counsel prayA that his patty might be dismissed ac c. rdingly ft urn all further ob ervance of the suit. The Counsel for the Marquis of Donegal (Dr. ADAM.,) and for the Marchione.s (Dr. PHI Lumone), both contended, that allowing the objection to be a valid one, even then it was not competent to Mr. Chichester's Counsel to take it. But there was no thing to shew that the noble party herself was out of the jurisdiction of the Court. That she was resident in Leland was sworn, only to the best of the know ledge and belief of a Mr. Stratford Robinson ; and the mere f4cr of her having assented to appear was sufficient to found the jurisdiction of the Court. The cases of Lord and Lady Ile:bert," and Tenducci and Tenducci," were cited in support of the position. Lord SrowaLt. said he would take time to consider an objection so important as this was, and give his opinion in the matter upon some day next week. ARKLAY U. ARKLAY. This was a case of divorce, by season of adultery, brought by Captain John Arklay, commanding a Vessel engaged in the merchant service, against Mr.:. Ann Arklay, his wife. Dr. SWABEY stated the substance of the depositions, and read the plea. It stated that Mr. Arklay, now of the parish of St. Dunstan, Stepney, was, on the 20th of July, 1811, married to Mrs. Ann Mocre, a young widow lady, in the city of4lontreal, in Lower Canada, under and by virtue a license obtained from his Excellency Lieutenant-General Sir George Prevost, Governor and Captain-General of the Pro vince. A certificate of the solemniaation of such marriage by a Minister if the Presbyterian congre gation of Montreal was among the exhibits given in. Froni the time of their union to the month of June, 1818, the parties lived and cohabited together, ex cepting during the periods of Captain Arklay's un avoidable absence on trading voyages; but in that ntbnth, upon his return from the West Indies, he was informed of the misconduct of his wife, and imme diately withdrew himself from all further coha bitation with Mrs. Arklay. It was upon this case (the Learned Counsel ob,erved) that he should submit, when the depositions had been stated to the Court, that Captain Arklay was entitled to a sentence of se paration from his wife. The deposition, were generally to this effect : That on the arrival of the parties in England, they resided in a house in Burr-street,. in the I'ari:h of Stepney, which had been furnished by Capt. Arklay. Sarah Thomas stated that she entered their service in the year 1817 ; and Mr. At klay having, in the month of April of that year, sailed on a voyage to the Wea Ladies, witness became greatly astonished at the very improper behaviour of her mistress, and told her that she was desirous of leaving her service. She was informed that if she chose to do so, she might; but she was desired to observe, that it would be without her wages, and without her trunk. Upon this inti nation witness thought proper to stay ; and, in return for it, she appears to have employed self in nar rowly watching the steps of her mistress. The result was, that very shortly afterwards she surprised her " with a Frenchman," in a criminal situation upon a sofa. While they still continued, Mrs. Arklay formed an acquaintance with a person of the name of Johnson, to whom she became exceedingly at tached, and with whom (as this witness deposed) she had adulterous intercourse. In the latter end of the year 1817, Johnson was arrested and confined in the Marshalsea. Prison, whither Mrs. Arklay followed, and where she at times cohabited with him. The volatile affections of this lady weie next transferred to a Dr. Mayne, who called himself a friend of her husband's; and for this individual she desired her servant to prepare a bed on the sofa, which seems to have formed an important part of the furniture of the house in Burr-street. She retired at night to her own room; but when the doctor was in the house she gave instructions that she should be denied to everybody else. At length the doctor was compelled to leave London, and to go to Portsmouth, from whence he was to embark for a foreign station. It was stated in evidence that Mrs. Arklay repaired to the same place, and cohabited with him at the Star and Garter Inn; but in this, as indeed in many other parts of the case, the lady's identity was not very satisfactorily proved. A Captain Thompson, fe off the good ship the Sparrow," was the next party al luded to in this vagrant evidence. He used to he with Mrs. Arklay very often; but, so far as could be understood, no very formidable impeachment was brought against this unfortunate lady upon his ac count. But a Mr. Milton, the next in succession -- . upon this procrastinated list of favourites, obtained a more decided and more enviable distinction. He was in Burr-street "late and early ; he was informed, by a message delivered through the same conscientious witness, that her mistress was quite alone, and wished him to see her and keep her company ; and he became the object of the most benevolent vigilance that the witness could exercise. For she deposed, that her suspicions having been long excited, she had one night resolved to see what was going on." Mr. Milton, it appeared, purposed to repose upon the same hospitable sofa which had before been te nanted by Mr. Johnson and Dr. Mayne: but upon this fatal night, the witness feigning herself to be asleep, and deceiving her mistress into a belief that she was so, watched that Lady's conduct very atten tively. She went up stairs into her room, and wit ness observed Mr. Milton following her. She was in her robe dc chambre, and without her shoes : Mr. Mil _ ton was without his coat, and equally destitute of cer tain other necessary habiliments. Witness saw them by " the light of the moon," which was shining through the stair-case window, it being then about three o'clock in the morning; and after they had gone into Mrs. Arklay's room together, she (witness) went to the door and tapped at it, but no answer was returned. She then told her mistress that she wanted to come into her room, hut still no answer was returned, al though she heard the Lady and Gentleman within " laughing and tittering together." Thus disappointed in her applications, this disconsolate servant returned to the parlour down stairs ; and consoled herself, by removing certain bed-clothes from the sofa, which h-ad been abstracted from her own bed for the pur pose of warming and cherishing Mr. Milton, who had so ungratefully renounced their coverture. The other witness in this came was a Mrs. Lee ; who, as well as her servant, deposed, that in the month of January, 1819, a Lady, at that time unknown to her, but whom the deponent had since ascertained to be Mrs. Arklay, wife of Mr. John At klay, party in this cause, came to her house, in Upper Eaton street , for the purpose of hiring lodgings. The Lady stated that " she never before had lived in lodgings, but had always kept house; that her husband, Cap tain Arklay, was at that time out of England, and trading upon the coast of Africa." The witness de manded the usual references, and was, by Mrs. Ark lay, directed to address herself to one or two places. and to the counting-house of an eminent merchant in the City, the owner, or the consignee of her husband's ship. At all these places, Mrs. Ai klay, the party in this cause, was spoken of and described " as Mrs. Arklay, the wife of John Arklay, party in this cause, and as none other." During her residence at the house of Mrs. Lee, it was charged that she had com mitted adultery with several persons, but especially with a Mr. Gordon. Tnis Gentleman, the last re corded " elite," was represented to Mrs. Lee as an especial friend of Captain Arklay, and under whose " protection" he had left his wife dining his absence abroad. The lodgings were obtained in May, 1819, and Mr. Gordon i n terposed in the matter. The mar riage of the parties in the cause was proved by a Mr. Young, who was present at the ceremony ; and a Mr. Hardy proved the absence of the husband at the dif fsrent times laid in the libel, and which took place when be was upon voyages to and from Sierra Leone. Dr. SIVABEY admitted that the identity of- Mrs. Arklay and tlrs other parties was in form not very sufficiently proved ; but the Court would consider the difficulty, not to say the impossibility, which must necessarily be experienced on that head in cases like the present. Here the difficulty was greatly in creased by the very fact of the ettreme profligacy which had marked the conduct of Mrs. Arklay; so extensive an acquaintance (where the parties, too, many of them had been passing, no doubt, under feigned names) made any satisfactory identity a thing almost impossible to be arrived at. The evidence upon the point, though not as full as might perhaps be wisliO, was yet sufficient for the purposes of veri fication. It was not to be expected that Captain Ark lay should have produced further proofs, because, as the Court would observe, he was absent timing these transactions, on the business of his profession, and chiefly occupied in voyages to and from the West Indies. Unquestionably this Sarah Thomas was a single witness, and her testimony was not corrobo rated by that of any other person living in the house at the same time. Yet lie (Dr. Swabey) did submit that sufficient had Leen shewn to satisfy the Court of the propriety of granting Mr. Arklay's prayer of separation. Lord Srowata. asked, where was the defensive plea in this case? He did not see it among his papers. Dr. JENNER said, he would not detain the Court upon that plea, which was of a recriminatory nature, because he was aware that it was not sufficiently established by evidence to enable him to support it with effect. It was, in substance, this—that shortly after these parties went to reside in Burr -street, Mr. Arklay heat Mrs. Arklay so violently and cruelly, that her life was despaired of. There was also a counter-charge against Mr. Arklay, of an adulterous connexion with Charlotte Godinge, their servant, who, in April, 1815, became pregnant by him, and • was removed by him to lodgings in the City-road, where she was delivered of a child, and where she was for .a long time afterwards frequently visited by Mr. Arklay. All these were grave charges ; and had they been backed by sufficient testimony, he (Doctor Jenner) should have felt it his duty to urge them at some length. In the defect of evidence, however, it was not upon this part of the case he meant to rely. Dr. LusitINGTON, who was Counsel with Dr. Swa bey for the husband, begged the Court to recollect, that this individual was a naval man. From the na ture of his occupation, and the narrowness of his in come, it was not likely that he should be able •to furnish more ample or more explicit evidence. The Learned Counsel, after defending the evidence of Sarah Thomas, remaiked, that the question of iden. tity was completely settled by the conversation which Mrs. Arklay held with Mrs. Lee, upon taking her lodgings, and the inquiries which Mrs. Lee made in consequence. Dr. JINNAR contended, that if the evidence of the witness, Sarah Thomas, had been the only,testimony in this case, nothing could be supported as against Mrs. Arklay ; for up to the period of Captain Ark lay's departure from England in the year 1817. her conduct must he taken to have been unimpeachable, seeing that nothing was alleged against it. If his Lordship looked at the date of Thomas's discharge from the service of her mistress, and the date of the adultery acts alleged in the three additional articles i which had been given in, be would find the latter bad taken place after the witness had quitted the service. Dr. Limn' Nororr conceived that his Learned Ftiend was in error on this point. Sarah Thomas was not introduced in those latter articles to depose to any of the facts alleged by Mrs. Lee, but to vet ify her former evidence, and to corroborate a part of Mrs. Lee's testimony. Dr. ENNEK, in continuation, observed, that the three additional articles had been subsequently given in, and pleaded acts of adultery said to have been committed during the absence of her husband. To the fifth and sixth articles of this libel no witnesses had been produced ; to the others, Sarah Thomas was the only witness examined. It was true that Mrs. Lee, in the three latter articles, deposed to the visits of a Mr. Gordon, with whom Mrs. Arklay was al leged to have entertained an adulterous connection. But in no part was the identity of Mrs. Arklay suffi ciently, or indeed at all, established ; and the Court would not, he thought, upon evidence so very de ficient in this most important particular, pronounce the sentence prayed. Lord STOWELL was quite satisfied with the proofs in this case. There were, indeed, some deficiencies, particularly with respect to that point which had been just urged by the Learned Counsel, that might have been supplied by a little more accuracy, per haps, on the part of the examiner. The Lady's own Counsel had admitted, that if the identity of his party had been sufficiently made out, the charges were fully established. His Lordship thought that identity had been quite established by the circumstance to which Dr. Llishington had directed the attention of the Court ; and no doubt could exist as to the fact of these illicit connections. Ile therefore pronounced for the prayer of the husband. OLD nAtr.r.y SESSIONS. Saturday these Sessions elided, when sentence of death was pa , ;seil on the following prisoners, capi tally convicted this Sessions, viz.

Teti were ordered to be imprisoned in the House of Correc tion for London, thirty-one in the House of Correction for Mid dlesex, and one in Newgate, for various periods, several of whom _ are to be publicly and privately whipp;cl; five to be whipped, and then discharged ; two judgments were respited ; s.•veral were fined one shilling and discharged ; and fifteen discharged by proclamation. The Sessions were then adjourned till the I‘..,kh of September next. The following is the substance of what passed at the Old Bailey Sesssions on Wednesday last, signed by the London Jury: Previous to the breaking op of the Court at the Old Bailey on Wedmsday evening, the Chairman of the London Jury stated, that as it appeared probable their attendance might not be re quired again, he was directed by his co-jurymen to address a few words to the Court in favour of the capital convicts, which, with permission, he would read from a paper which he held in his hand. The COMMON SCIUTANT said, that he could not permit the Jury to address him on the subject of capital punishments. To which the Juryman replied, that it was an application for mercy to the convicts of the present Session, and requested the Court to indulge them with its patience. He then proceeded to read, but, after a few sentences, was interrupted by The COMMON SERJZANT—" I can hear no more; the Jury are usurping that which does not belong to them." Juryman—" My Lord, the Jury think it important to"— COMMON SERJEANT- 4 I cannot listen to anything more. It is not the province of a Jury to arraign the laws of the country." Juryman—" This is an appeal from the Jury to"— Commx SERJEANT•••-" I cannot listen to it : you have nothing to do with the punishment the law awards." Juryman—" My Lord, I must be allowed to differ with the Court on that point." COMMON SNRJEANT--" The Jury are usurping more than be longs to them, and I will not hear it." Juryman—" My Lord, the Jury could not mean to offend. I have only a few words to offer." COMMON SKILJEANT—" Sir, if you offer any more words, I will commit you for contempt of Court. Go out of Court!" Juryman—" My Lord, I am not aware of having said any thing offensive; and had I so considered this application for mercy, I certainly would not have undertaken it. As it is, I must submit." The annexed p:tper was also signed by the Jury : " The London Jury cannot separate without making an anxious appeal to the Court in behalf of the prisoners who have been capitally convicted. By a conscientious discharge of the duties imposed on them, they have been compelled to commit the lives of individuals into the hands of their fellow men, for offences varying in character and degree ; and it behoves them to state their feelings of deep regret that the absence of marked atrocity should not ensure an exemption front the dreadful sen tence of death. Notwithstanding the high degree of confidence they would place in the merciful discrimination of those who ate invested with the final disposal of lives forfeited to the law, the painful apprehension caused by the uncertainty of remission de prives them of the satisfaction which should follow their own verdict. Reason and humanity dictate the hope that-the embar rassing difficulties attending the office of Juror may be speedily removed ; constrained as they now are by their oath to award a punishment so manifestly excessive as to demand the constant interposition of higher authority to prevent its being carried into effect. It is their humble desire, therefore, to communicate to his Majesty's Council, through the humane offices of the Court, that the London Jury respectfully disclaim the extreme penalty which their verdicts would seem to invoke on the criminals they have had in charge, and earnestly solicit their deliverance from ,death."
