Serjeant Vat:GRAN would not deny the importance of the present case to the character of the plaintiff; but he thought, that when the Jury had heard the case, they would have a very different opinion of the bearing of its merits. No malice had been imputed. witch less proved, against the defendant ; and it would seem that he could not have acted as he did towards the plaintiff but in error; for if not to malice, to what other cause could the charge made against the plaintiff be attributed,' if not to error in the defendant ? I!tlach emphasis had been laid upon the communication made by the plaintiff to the defendant, as having been made immediately after it had been overheard, but lie should prove that such communication was not made until a fortnight after it was known; and what was the inference to be drawn from that circumstance? Why it was this. that the plaintiff was the associate of certain fellows (not the odd fellows*thatThad been alluded to), and a party with them, to a proposed burglary; he, however, thought proper to split, and save himself from all ill conse quences of his evil association, by disarming the plaintiff ! of all probable ground of suspicion of bring concerned in the actual commission of the robbery. At a quarter past three o'clock, the Jury returned a verdict fur the plaintiff—Damages 3111.

RAWILIN6 AGAINST AIACYIE, FALSHLT CALLED IlAfrXINs This was 4 causeof nullity of marriage promoted by the husband against the wife, by reason of her having, at the tint* of her marriage with the party proponent, a former husband, who was then still living.

The COURT said, the doubt in the present case arose, because the witness was the first husband, and was now deceased. The Court's predecessor, however, in a former rase, did admit such a paper 6 . de bear esse". The fact was, that tor* might he most important evidence cum tained in such a deposition which the Court could not get at from any other source. Dr. LUiIIINGTON reminded the Court, that in all pro secutions for bigamy, it was customary to allow tile second wife or the second husband to be examined, in order to prove the injury ; but the first husband, or the first wife, was excluded from giving evident e. Sir C. liontmsoN then recapitulsted the circumstances of the case, which merely went to establish the facts of the first and the second marriage the id -wily of Mackie. with Elisabeth, falsely called Hawkins ; and the dates of the two marriages. The first tuirriage of the party with Mr. Mackie took place in 1809. The second or•pretended marriage with Hawkins its IS$ll.
