A curious circumstance took place on Friday at Union Troll, during the e.xs►niivation of a woman on a charge of bigamy. While the first husband, named Facia, ens giving evidence in order to substantiate the charge against her, a Lady, who was in the office, rather mnt7a-pr; . !os for t witness, came forward and addressed the Magistrates, as buying a claiM to his hard prior to his having entered into the holy Rate of matrimony with the prisoner. Under these circumstances the Magistr►ite thought proper to commit both the witness and the prisoner for trial.

It was an action before a Special Jury, brow.ht.by the Plaintiff, a linker, at Clire, against the Defendant, an A dju .tant in.the Suffolk Local Militia, to recover a cotnpen=ation in damages for criminal conversation with the pl4intiff's wife; but it being clearly proved to the satisfit;tion o f the Court nod . Jury, that the plaintiff connived at and encouraged the faini liarities with his wife, he was nonsuited. Actions of this kind, to the honour of the married females in the county of Suffolk, being very rare, it excited considerable interest. A eingular.occurrence took place at the Carrickferguc assiZeF. Alexander M'Coy, who was char“l with a rape on CathPtine 341`Gawly, gave notice of his intention to surrender himself to the gaoler, and abide his trial at the present assizes. A ccord int.ly he was returned in the calendar. On the prisoner being ar raigned? he pleaded as Alexander M'Coy ; but when about to be given in charge to the Jury, the Counsel for the Crown men tioned to the Court, th a t he understood. Aleiander M'Cov was not in custody,, but that his brother Daniel had personated him. This appearing to be the fact, Wale! was ordered to remain in custody, and to be prosecuted for the intended imposition. A very striking caution to the owners of carts, was this week given at the Assizes of York: On the 19th of February, 1808, whileit . boy of the name of Jahn Hainswitrth, was leisurely sassing a place called Arnett Corner, in Leeds, a cart driver, front rashness and want of skill, drove his cart on the causeway and pinned the boy against the corner ; the horses rushing for ward, the wheel took ''his hand completely. off above the wrist, and it dropped to tpe ground. The boy being an orphan, an action fur damages xias brought by his guardian against Mr. Thomas Morkill, jUn. of lialton, the owner of the cart.
