Sir Peter Laurie noticed, with concern, a few days since. a change which bad recently been worked by the Judges. is the law of England, upon the subject of adultery. The decision to which be referred was pronounced by Judge Bayley (with whom sat Justices Littlsdale sod James Park), in the Court of King's Bench, in the eerie part of No. 'ember last ; and, as it escaped observation at the time, it may be hies resting to give a brief account of it now. It is no longer true that there is one law for the rich and meths, for the poor, where an unhappy husband discovers that his num. bial happiness has hewn destroyed; for, although the poor man may, by reason of his poverty, be incapable of raising a suit for sepanden in the Ecclesiastical Courts, yet. if he chooses to separate without ob taining a legal sanction for so doing. the overseers of the no longer claim to be indemnified against the expense of his wife. It has been the almost universal practice of the Magistracy to MY that every man is bound to support his wife, andthat, however lieellehlow. her conduct may be, the obligation to support her continues until hes& tains a formal relief to the Ecclesiastical Courts. Therefore, if the wife becomes chargeable to any pariah (which she sometimes elects to do, from spleen rather than necessity), the Justice will commit the husband a, a rogue and vagabond for neglecting to maintain his family, unless he shall agree to make a sofklent allowance to prevent her from being burdensome any logger. The Judges, however, have now determined that such commitments are illegal, the Vagrant Act only empowering the magistrate to punish every person refusing or neglecting to sup port any part of his family " whom he. may be legally bound to main min," while a husband cannot be said to be legally bound to main tain an adulteress, who could not recover a maintenance in an Ecclesiastical Court. Henceforward, then, it will be a valid de fence, upon being charged before a Magistrate with neglecting to main tain a wife. to call witnesses. and adduce legal proof of her Infidelity. But to the case. Mr. W. H. noun, a commercial traveller, mar ried Miss Elizabeth Stevens in 1814, and they lived together till No umber, 1821, when she quitted his house in consequence of a dispute about her having pawned his plate, and lest his watch to a man named Bevan ; and three days after this separation the husband received a citation from the Coniston Court for cruelty and adultery ; which citation was dismissed in July.lB2B, upon proof that the wife bad her self committed adultery, with (liven persons, at an earlier period than that proved against the husband. The wife then threw herself spas the parish of St. Andrew by the Wardrobe, from which she received four shillings per week; and the husband refusing to reimburse this sum (because he contended he was relieved from bis liability to main tain her from the very moment she committed adultery), he was am moved before Sir Peter Laurie at Guildhall Here Mr. Heaton, the barrister, ably supported, by reference to cases the position takes up by the husband, and was permitted by the Alderman to prove adultery on the part of the wife ; first, by the examination'of witnesses • and n et by reference to the record of the proceedings In the &eine:ideal Court. The Alderman was completely satisfied on this point, but having taken the opinion of several Magistrates, as well as of the City Law Authorities, he ultimately convicted the husband, under the third section of the Vagrant Act, and committed him to imprisonment and bard labour for one month. The husband immediately put in ball, and appealed against this conviction to the Quarter Sessions, where he was at the expense of taking all his witnesses on two days, and it was then adjourned to a third, when the appeal was called on out of turn, and in the absence of his Counsel, and it was armed, subject, however, to the opinion of the Judges of the Court of King's Bench, on a special case, admitting the adultery tobe proved. The case stated the fact of the wife being chewable to the parish while the husband was able wholly to maintain her—theseparation of she parties—and a copy of the record of the dismissal of the wife's suit for alimony, in consequence of her having committed adultery ; and it concluded that the question was, whether the husband was. at the time of the conviction, legally bound to maintain his wife, within the meaning of the Vagrant Act? Mr. Mirehouse and Mr. Patteson were heard on the 3d of Novem ber in support of the conviction ; and the last-named Counsel, in the course of his argument, admitted that, if the parish had stood in the same situation as an individual, affording assistance to the wife, it would have bad no claim to indemnification from the husband. The Costae asked how could the husband be bound to maintain her if she could not recover maintenance in an Ecclesiastical Court? and the Judges. forthwith quashed the conviction, without troubling Mr. Heston or Mr. Jones, who were retained for the husband, reply. Hiving been put to some expense (about 40l.) in resisting an illegal decision which was attempted to be upheld by the long purse of the Corporation of London, the husband naturally thought the Court of Aldermen would, in justice, refund to him at least a portion of the costs of litigation (as, it has been said, was done in ?dr. Alderman Winchester's case), and be pretested a memorial on the subjeet,throngla Sir Peter Laurie. who, however, shortly afterwards, wrote to him that the Court of Aldermen did not consider it in their power to comply with his application, and that his memorial was laid on the table. Now. inasmuch as the husband bad been compelled to find sureties to ?ay the expenses of the City, In case the Judges should decide against him, certainly equal justice and honour of the Corporation de manded tha t he should be reimbursed the expenses and costs he bad been put to, through the ignorance of the City Law Authorities, upon a point which the Judges deemed too clear for argument. However. from this imputation of ignorance we are bound ie fairness to rescue the characters of the then Common Sergeant (Daman), and the pre sent Coroner of Loudon, whose opinions were in accordance with that afterwards pronounced by the Judges.

Melbourne, Smear; of State for the Home The bumble petition of the I= of Reading, and other plates in the County of Berks. - Sheweth,—That at the late SpeaslSessions for the trial of criminals held in the town of Reading, a great number of persons were capitally convicted, t ot whom, Oakley, Wioterbourne , and Darling, are left for execution, the jury having found them guilty of encou raging unlawful meetings of the people, and by intimidation obtaining mosey from individuals. Your petitioners are well aware of the necessity of preserving the public peace, and insuring a strict obedience to the laws of the land, and they deeply regret the outrages which have been committed in the county in which they reside; but with great deference they humbly submit to your Lordship, that every desirable end may be attained in the present case without the inilictimi of capital punishment. Your petithusers, on every principle, entertain the strongest objections to the taking away of human life, and are firmly of opinion that the custom, instead of repressing crime, promotes in. sensibility, and frequently, by exciting sympathy for the sufferer, di. minishes the abbonence of his guilt. Your petitioners believe that in the present instance a variety of circumstances mesa to call for the infliction of some punishment short of death ; the dine of which the prisoners have been convicted is one which, in the commen opinion of uneducated men, was not considered as capital, ennui &snit ignsenoce of the law may be no legal defence, in all moral ha ft it Emit and ought to have its weight ; for it is possible that had them unfortiosas prisons been apprised of the defter, they in. coned, they might have stopped short of the violation of that law on account of which they were to suffer. That although it appeared in evidence on the trials, that great threats were used by the prisoners, yet in no instance were they guilty of personal violence to any one. Taking all these circumstances into consideration, your petitioners are firmly persuaded that the lives of these men may be stored without injury to public justice, and that thereby the feelings of the lower classes are more likely to be c onciliated, and the peace of the county be placed on a sure foundation. They humbly pray your Lordship's serious attention to this represen tation, and that you will be pleased to recommend to his Majesty to di. rest the sentence of death to be commuted to any other punishment lluis to his wisdom may seem meet. J. B. Maack, Req. of Coley Park, and James Whcble, Esq. of Woodley Lodge, at the request of some of the petitioners, kindly en. fi r to wait on the Secretary of State, and lay all the petitions before We have this evening received the following note from Mr. Monck " The petitioners will be anxious to hear the result of our application to Lord Melbourne. He received us very kindly, and hard us very patiently for half an hour. He promised that the petitions should be presented both to the King and the Queen, and that time should be allowed for the reception of them,and for e due consideration of them. So the matter rests. I ant not therefore without hope, but hardly dare entertain much." Other petitions had been numerously signed to the King and Queen. The only erect of this application to Minister was the respite of two ' man from death. One was executed on Tuesday, but the sentences of I transportation, &e. still remain in full force on all. • GLOUCESTER JOURNAL.
