OLD BAILEY SESSIONS. • Saturday, Thomas Saxi/by, a man of most respect able and venerable appearance (seventy years of age), was indicted for forging a will, purporting to be that of Thomas Robinson. Mr. 13aoneatott stated the charge in the indict ment, and Mr. ADOLPHUS stated the facts of the case to the Jury, as he was instructed he should be able to prove them in evidence. In 1815 there lived at Hull a young Gentleman, named Thomas Robinson, a bachelor, possessed if property to the amount of 15 or £20,000. He lived with his mother. in-law, his fa ther's widow. In 1816 he became ill of an ague, which terminated his life in seven days. This was in the month of February. There was search made for a will, but none found, except a piece of paper, Erting, that he wished all his money in (here some letters were torn off), and a house in Albion street, to his mother-in-law. This was sent to Doc tors' Commons ; but the Court held that unless, cn or before the 7th of September, some more explicit testamentary document were produced, judgment s:tould go in favour of the next of kin. This would have taken the whole of the property from the mo ther-in-law ; but so late as the 2d of September, Mr. Sarilby produced a paper written by himself, but purporting to be signed by Thomas Robinson, leav ing Al his property to his mother-in-law. This, Mr. Sasilby said, in his depositions at Doctors Commons, was drawn up by bins at Mr. Robinsott's desire, dur ing his last illness, on a Sunday afternoon, when he called on him, as was his usual custom on Sundays. This will was establiAied in Doctors Commons, and no opposition was made by the next of kin, they being in poor and humble circumstances. The will ! produced by Strilby mentioned the bad conduct of, Mr. Robinson's uncle, who had been sent to New South Wales 30 years ago, by the sentence of some' Court. He came over on the death of his relative, and instituted this inquiry. The institution of proceedings in the Prerogative Court, and the abandonment of them, on the pri soner producing the alleged will, was then proved. in evidence. J. H. Pickard knows the prisoner well; the depo sitions were signed with the hand-writing of the pri soner, who was many years in his employment. Cross-czantiried.—The prisoner had been employed by him confidentially as the manager of the white-, lead works, of which witness is the proprietor. Ile left him in 1816. Prisoner might have defrauded him of thousands without detection, and he verily be lieved he never defrauded trim of a single shilling.— He had £l5O a year, house rent, taxes, and coals, while with him. When he left witness, there was no improvement in his mode of living; had no doubt but all the disputed will, except the signature, was in the hand-writing of the prisoner. The paper was then read as follows: " The whole of my property I wish to give to my mother-in law, if she survives me. My uncle's bad conduct is great, but I hope she will be good to him when she shall see occasion. " THOMAS ROBINSON." Mary Bailey was servant to the late Mrs. Robin son, at Hull, tor five years, to 1819. Remembered Mr. T. Robinson, her son-in-law, who lived with her. They were not on affectionate terms. She knew Mr., Saxilby perfectly well, after Mr. Robinson's death.' She was their oaly servant, and did all they wanted. Mr. Robinson died six or seven months after she went to live there. She saw Mr. Saxilby once in that time at their house, but could not tell whether it was on a Sunday or not. Sometimes she went out after tea on a Sunday. It was not usual for Mr. Saxilby to come to see Mr. Robinson every Sunday. Mr. Robiason was taken ill on a Monday. On the day before he had Mr. Lockwood with him most of the day. Between tnelve and one Mr. and Mrs. Baton called, and dined at half-past one. There were there also Mr. aad Miss Hewson, and Elizabeth Phi'Lipson. They all continued together after dinner, and tooth tea about six, during which time Mr. Ro binson never left the company. Mr.Saxilby did not come into the house at all during that time. Mr. Robinson diJ not complain in particular that day of illness, but of the coldness of the day. Mr. Martin called the next day: he is an attorney, and brought his clerk with him. They were shewn by witness in to Mr. Robinson. On Monday, about half-past eleven, Mr. Robinson became quite deranged, and died on the Monday following. During all that time he was generally light-headed. Six or seven wcele., after Mr. Robinson's death, she saw Mr. &trilby two or three times a week at her mistress's house. Shc never heard from Mr. Saxilby about a suit respecting a will, nor ever heard him talk with Mrs. Rubinson, or any other, about a will. Mr. Gal land, the attorney, used frequently to come to the house. She took once a note from Mrs. Robinson to Mr. Saxilby, at Mr. Pickard's office; and it was after that that he came so frequently: she gave it to him herself. C 1 oss-errvitincd.—She beard Mr. Robinson. men tion Mr. Saxilby's name many times over. Mr. Ro hi nson's general health had been bad for some months' before he died. He went for an airing in a post thaise on the Saturday before his last illness; his m9ther-in•law accompanied him. On the Sunday before Mr. Robinson was taken ill she did not see Mr. Young, his surgeon, at his house; and if he bad been, she must have seen him. She was not cur on any part of that day. She did not go out on that day betweei. two and three o'clock, nor was she let in again by Mrs. Phillipson. There was no celery dressed for Mr. Robinson that day. There was no love between Mr. Robinson and his mother-in-law:— Mrs. ltobinson's death was a year and a half after that of her son-in-law. Had known Mr. Rushworth, an attorney at Hull, about two years. She did not tell him first of these things. She never said a word about this till she had left Mrs. Robinson's. She had been before the London Grand Jury in Septem ber, and in this month, on this indictment. She be lieved she mentioned what she knew of this subject to Mr. Lockwood. I'. Lockwood, a F eneral commerei Al agent at Hull, was acquainted with T. Robinson. He had been with him on a Sunday before he died; and saw him on the Tuesday perfectly struck with death. He was with Mr. Robinson about half-past ten on the Sun day morning, and staid till twelve, or a quarter after. He went again about two, and staid tiir five, or half-past. There were Miss Phillipson and Miss llewson in the room. He did not see Saxilby there that day, to the best of his recollection. Mr. and Mrs. Robinson seemed generally almost. quarrelling. He haJ seen Mr. Robinson write once or twice, and could peak to his writing. The signature. at the bot tom of the disputed will he did not believe to be his writing ; but that on the will abandoned he believed was his hand-writing. He did not visit Mrs. Robin son after Mr. Robinson's death. Cross-examined.—He had seen Mr. Robinson write only once or twice, and, if he had not seen another writing yesterday, he should have thought the signa ture to the disputed will was Mr. Robinson's hand writing; and if he had been examined two or three' days back, he should have said so. Two letters and some receipts were here shewn to the witness, which he swore to be T. Robinson's hand-writing. The letters were, but the receipts were not. Mr. Baron GA RROW here desired Rushworth, the attorney for the prosecution, to sit down, as he ob served the witness's eye invariably turned to catch his, before he answered a question. Witness told Rushworth, that when he saw the signature to the disputed will, he thought it was, - on the first blush of it, the hand-writing of T. Robinson, but that it was different from his usual writing. • In answer to a question from Mr. Justice BAYLEY, he now admitted that Mr. Rushworth bore his ex penses at - York, and in London, in October 1820, and in 1821. When he came back to Hull, in Oc tober last, he told Rushworth he did not know whose handwriting it seas. Yesterday he did tell him that he firmly brlieved it was Robinson's hand-writing A witness iu this cause, named Gooding, bailed him from arrest on a debt of £1.5, just the day before he came to town, and he had compounded with his cre ditors about seven years ago. C. Clark, a schoolmaster in Lincolnshire, was a clerk formerly in the Bank at Hull, where T. Robin son kept his cash, being shewn the will, he did not think the signature was that of T. Robinson. S. Horner, Esq. a merchant at Hull, knew T. Ro binson, but not intimately. Had seen him mite a few times. Ile did not think the signature T. Ro binson's hand-writing. S. Martin, an attorney ; G..leffs, a tailor in Hull; and G. Gooding, a merchant in Hull, dcpo'ed to the same effect. The case for the prosecution having closed, the prisoner put in a written defence, in whicii;he gave the same account of the making of the will which he had, given in his deposition before the Prerogative Court. Ile dwelt With feeling, but not resentment, on the frequent prosecutions instituted against him ; and concluded by relying on Gon, that he would not suffer him, in his old age, to fall a prey to the ma-. lice of his disappointed enemies. Mr. IL Guard was a fellow clerk with Mr. T. Ro-' binson. He believes that the first will, and the sig.-, nature to the disputed one, are the hand-writing of T. Robinsor« J. Neville, clerk of the Dock Company at Hull, believed the first will, and signature to the last, to be the writing of Robinson. Mr. Baron GAaaow ordered three of the witnesses for the prosecution out of Court, for making obser vations disapprobatory of the evidence given by the last witness. Mr. Young, surgeon in Hull, attended Mr. T. Ro biuson for some years, and in his last illness. He was twice at his house on the Sunday, as he was taken on the Monday. He had indirectly recommended to Mr. Robinson to settle his affairs, and he said he would. The signature to the last will was like Ro. binson's writing. Miss Phillipson was at Mr. Robinson's when Mary Bailey went out on the Sunday, and witness let her in. She did not see Mr. Sasilby there that day, Witness dressed some celery for Robinson, and heard of Mr. Sazilby having been there. Ou the same day Mr. Young came in. She was positive that Lock wood was not at Robinson's on the Sunda, Miss Hannah Ilewson swore positively that she let Mr. Saxilby in about two o'clock on the Sunday in question, and that she left them together in the par ' lour. Lockwood was not there that day. Several other witnesses deposed to the same effect; and the prisoner having received the highest charac ter as a man of honour and integrity, the Jury ex pressed themselves sati%tied without a summing up of the evidence, and Mr. Justice BAYLEY having made one or two observations, a verdict of—Not Guilty was returned.—The prisoner was then arraigned upon an indictment for perjury, and acquitted. He was then discharged. Mr. Serjeant Hum.ocx, on the part of the prisoner, applied for a copy of the indictment, with the view of some ulterior proceedings, and the Court acceded immediately to the request. The following were convicted of felonies, viz. John Paul, for stealing six silver spoons ; and James Davis, for stealing a silk handkerchief. The piesent Sessions at the Old Bailey wilt prove a very.memorable one, there not being a single indict ment preferred before the Grand Jury for the county of Middlesex, up to Friday, for uttering forged Bank of England notes. But there are no fewer than seven prosecutions on the part of the Mint, for uttering Counterfeit coin. A youth named Joint Hallam, a farmer's servant at Wellingore, was a few days ago apprehended under a Magistrate's warrant, charged with having disturbed the religious worship of a society of Me thodists in that place: on his paying a guinea to the poor of the parish, and making a public acknow ledgment of his offence, further proceedings have been stopped. The high wind on the night of Friday blew down a part of one of the minarets on the tower of St. Meryl Church, Reading.

ROTTEN V. COCKLE, CALLING HERSELF norrss. This was a suit of futility of marriage, promoted by F. T. Rotten, Esq. against Sarah Coekk, mherwise Rotten, Ilia wife, on the giound of ntiteority on hie part, and non-consent of john I Rotten, his father. The marriage, it appeared, took place at the Parish Church of St. Ann, Westminster on the '2 0t h of Ottolwr,lBl6, by license, upon the oath of the husband that he was then ut tha ai,e of 21 years, and upwards, whereas it appeared, by evidence of certifi cate of baptism, and other proofs, that he was of the age of 19 years only. T he facts of such marriage hiving been solemnized ' without the knowledge or consent oldie said John Rotten, Beep the father, and his having expressed much grief and displeasure on the same being communicated to him t month after, were deposed to by the affidavits of several witnesses, and there beiag no defence o ff ered on the part of the wife, the Court procecdA to pass sentence. Sir C. ROBINSON observed, this was a proceeding under the Act of Parliament, which directs that all parties under the age of 21, not being a widow or widower, who sbalk marry by license, without consent of parent or other lawful guardian, such marriage shall be null and void to all intents and purposes what soever. If anything appeared to shew that the party seeking his remedy in the present instance has been guilty of such perversion of conduct as to take advantage of an act of deliberate perjury on his part, in swearing that he was upwards of fa:, the Court would not be restrained from animadverting in strong terms, on an attempt which was contriving to abuse the law of this coun try, in taking advantage of the Act of Parliament to veid such marriage; but such being IN:: law, nu part of his conduct, or its being his own act, could make this marriage good, from his being a minor, and wanting the consent of a lawful guardian.' Under the circumstances, however, which had been satisfac t art: j proved, that this marriage had hem solemnized contrary to the Act of Parliament, the Court had no aite-native but to pro nounce such marriage null and veil. ADULTERY. at erre v. MA This was a suit of divorce brought by Susannah Afaund against her husband, 'James Mauna, by reason of adultery. 'l'be evidence in the case having been read, it was subutitted by Dr. I,usnntowts, followed on the same side by Dr. DODSON, that as no positive act of adultery had-been proved, the Court would consider the mere circumstantial evidence, upon which it was sought to infer the adulterous intercourse, was imperfect and insufficient. Sir CIIIIISTOPIIIM I:O2IIi2AW • commented upon the evidence at considerable length. The libel pleaded the marrlige to have tato place in ING.S; since whicit, it described the husband to have lived in one continued series of adulterous Intercourse. It firs charged an athstierons intercourse with a Lady who re sided at Winchester; hut the party promoting the suit had not relied upon that charge, so far as to examine witnesses upon it,. further than a letter addressed to the defendant, because of the difficulty which pre-seated itsrfl. lielontil an intercepted letter, that charge, therefore, was not sufficiently pro-ed. The libel further went on to charge an adulterous coniwition with a Mrs. Howard, commencing where that Lady then lodged, in North street, Red Lion-square; and with the ease trmule, ;Atha warelsl residing at Heaton. The larAt account of the business was given by Mrs. Duncan, the Lady's mother, which was, that in 1815, for the convenience of family arraswenusiti, she, her daughter, and son-hi-law, went to reside at 'Holton, where they couti oared to live with deponent for some time. 'The hinsband, it Appeared, was a traveller in the house of his Grothers, Dlauud and Co. of London ; and althowl. his habits of business would allow of his leaving by four nr live, he. did not return home till nine or ten o'clock at nigh ; weal un Suudays he generally absented himself the wind,. day. Ihe deponeut, its the year 1820, in consequence of an anonymous letter she received, went with a Mrs. Foster, who accompanied her to No. 19, Craven-street, lioxton, where she watched Mr. ;Naomi home; and he ap peared to knock at the door as if he was master of the house. This was the house in which Mrs. Howard dyed. They then ap proached the front parlour evinl,w, to watch :ow things went s.n. They observed the meeting was friendly uud kcal, but netiiing of indecency; it looked like that of a evi:e rec....van.; her hus band. Mrs. Foster continecd longer than last witness to watch their motions, and corroborated her statement, that they geared as if very fond of each other. She considered the faun 'bray between them exactly as that of husband and wife; but without deposing to any act of adultery. Hannah Brilliant lived servant with idrs. Iloward, who ra.:- r.opied the house, and let the first Soar. There was not a day that Mr. 11Iund did not come theie. lie.usually came at four, and stopped till about nine in the evening. On Sunday be came at ten, and deponent did not know how long he stopped.. but be an d she went to Church. Deponent knew them to ' Lave been in the bed-room together. Ile used to go there to wash his hands whilst her mistress put on her things. Deponent never limed the bed-room door locked but once. The blinds of the room they used were sometimes down. When Alm Howard's brother and uncle came to see her, Mr. Alaund used to go out of the room, and secrete himself in a room on the second floor. She used to him her brother, and My Jitter ! Had seen them shake hands. but never saw any improper tami liarities between them. Had deponent not thought in reality that he was her brother, she should have observed their conduct with more suspicion. Several of the neighbours. occupying premises adjoining, spoke to familiarites between the parties, by means of overlook ing the parlour floor •' the chief of these were, that of her sitting on his knee, with her arms round his firth, and kissing him. The inferential conclusion in the minds of other witnesses was, that the must have lived with him on the footing of a kept mistress, but no positive act of adultery was deposed to further than mere circumstantial evidence. The COURT, howev.r, upon the whole of the circumstantial evidence disclosed, together with inferential conclusions ope rating on the minds of witnesses, although matter of opinion was by no means satisfactory evidence, yet it was, upon the rules of evidence observed in, these Courts, from the facts dis closed, that sort officonsic inference (in the place of positive evidence) upon wbkh the Court would come to the conclusion, that the wife had established her case sufficiently to be entitled to the relief prayed. The Watt accordingly pronounced for the divorce. The Rev. J. 11. Gaooms, Rector of Earl and Monk Soham, at his late tythe dinner, made the libe ral deduction of ten per cent. upon his respective compositions. The Rector of Halesworth has, unsolicited, made a deduction of fifteen per cent. from the usual pay ment of tythes in that parish, although not considered as highly charged previous thereto. The Rev. CHARLES DAVY, Rector of Barking, de ducted, at his tythe audit, ten per cent. in addition to five per cent. taken off last year, making alto gether a deduction of fifteen per cent. from his entire demand. • The Rev. T. A. ML - rutten,. Rector of Allcannings and Etchelhampton, at his late audit day, very libe rally abated twenty per cent on his tythes. The Rev. GAIUS BARRY, Rector of the parish of Little Sodbury, Glouceste rshire, at his late tythe re ceipt, abated his tenants full twenty per cent. in con sequence of the depressed state of agriculture. Tuesday, the Rev. Dr. HAY liberally reduced his composition for tythes for the parish of Belten, in Suffolk, ten per cent. at his audit. The same Gen tleman had also reduced them ten per cers.. feu:- years since. The Rev. Mr. FREELAND, of Hasketon, af his tythe feast last week, in consequence of the depressed state of agriculture, handsomely deducted 15 per c-:nt. ...On the 26th ult. the day of the Rev. Joum %VA trt's tythe audit, at the White Horse Inn, in Stoke the farmers carried the full amount of the conicosi- Con for tythes (except one person who was id, and he sent a messenger to request Mr. W.-to call upon him the next morning, and,he would pay him), and where Mr. W. offered'. an abatement it was liberally re jected, besides which, he frequently receives hand some presents front his parishioners, such as firkins of butter, turkeys, &c.
