In the mouth of October last Mr. PriticeKof de Crown Office in the Temple, was robbed of his va luable watch, chain, and seals, while they deter ott his breakfast table. Mr. Princep was at break fast, and stepped into an adjoining room ; on his re. Iturn he discovered that his watch, Sic. had beertiabea . off the table, and as he only had been absent s !minute or two, he• ran to his door, where he loud in the passage John Leary, a boy only eleven of age. lie saw another boy running aamy r . and• • while he was securincLeary, the other boy made his escape.. Leary was conveyed' before the sitting Al. derman, at Greildhall, where he was discharged far want of evidence ; but it was thought, from the lad connection he must be linked wills, that such a child ought to be taken from it, and he was got into de Philanthropic School. After he halt beets in die school about a month he made a voluntary confesiaa of the gang of young robbers mid their protitediall. He stated the manner in which Mr. Pi bleep's chew bers were robbed, and confessed to a burglary in Bed , ford-square, where they stole i quantity of plate, sod other roliberie , i ; and that a publican of the mimed - Kelly •had received from them, during the last three months, 5001. or 6001. In consequence of this =confession enquiries were made aft-r John Desk - who went by the name of Barry; and who wai said to have stolen Mr. Priticep's watch, when it was w. certained that he was under confinement in New Prison - Clerkenwell, charged with robbing's Asa hi St. Prison; of a cap, in company with Ink , Hill, alias Holmes, another of the gang; they went brought from the prison on Friday, to the thief, and . Leary was brought from the*.Phillittbropic , School to • snake gond his confession, by giving evi dence against them, when be had the audacity, be fore Mr, NAREs, the Magistrate, to deny that tbei 'were the buys he had confessed against as part of hit gang, 'although he was contradicted by a • boy she attended them as waiter at the ready-made coifs• shop in Seven Dials, and who identified them by the names, and as described in Leary's confession ; there was strong suspicion that Harry and Jack Hill had contrived to hare a communication with Leary, previous to their coming into the Olicei which accounted for 'Mk not identifying Clem, sad he was in consequence ordered into custody, and committed with Harry for Mr. Princee's robhery, on Mr. P.'s evidence, he believing Harry to be the boy he saw running away, arta he had -secured Leary. • Thomas 11 - itrris, atlas Freeman, underwent le es* amination on Saturday, before Mr. Brame, charg ed On Saturday. last a man, calling himself John - with beim' enflamed isith 'six or seven others ici Brown, applied for admission into the hospital, fir- knocking dowtCand robbing a gentleman in Nee* mingham, who- had been recently shot in the face and street, Finsbury-square, it a late how; on 1 1 deedif - side, as he stated, by two footpads in the neighbour- night last.

Mr. Serjesnt LENS stated, that this was an action brought by the Plaintiff, who was a considerable{ coal-dealer, to recover of the Defendant, a mer. chant in the city, the very small sum of 221. for seven chaldron of coals furni - bed to Mrs. Fletcher. The facts were these:-,--Mr. and Mrs. Fletcher had for some years been separated from each other. The Lady lived in Dean-street, Park-lane, and Mr.. F. resided at Ealing. He should prove that the coals were delivered at Mrs. F.'s house, and, as it could pot be eentendedlhat they were not a necessary, the husband was hound to pay for them. The delivery of the coals was proved. Mrs. F. gave the Oder for them, and the credit was given to her, .end not to her husband. It appeared she had dealt with the Plaintiff seven years, and had paid regularly, with the exception of the articles in ques tion : but when the Plaintiff last applied for pay meat, she referred him to her husband. It appeared that Mrs. F. had a, complete establishment of her own, that she kept s house and servants, and must have been allowed a separate maintenance: but it was proved, that such maintenance was not . secured to her by deed. It was stated that her husband paid two sums of 751. to her agent about the time this debt was contracted. Mr. Serjeant BEST, on these facts, contended De fendant was net liable. The POI'S JUSTICE said, there was no case in the , boek4,a: exactly resembled the present one. He moat: Therefore, decide it as well as be could upon the principles laid down in other cases. The an thorities.were not all reconcilable to each other : but thus far had been decided, that if there was a separate maintenance, if the money was regularly paid,, and the husband and wife lived separate from each other, the husband , was not answerable for the debts which the wife might contract. Now what were the facts of this case? It appeared, that the lady had, for the , last seven years, been resident separate from• her husband in the house which she inhabited, and to winch the Plaintiff had for that period been accus. tomed to send his goods. It appeared, that she had not ordered them as a married woman: that during the seven years she bad paid the Plaintiff herself; that the Plaintiff had never any intimation of her be ing a marled woman, till long after she had ordered the goods as a single woman. When the bill was sent in, she then for the first time refused to pay it, on the score that she was a married woman. Ile had before stated, if the wife had a separate main tenance regularlarly paid, that the husband had been held not to be answerable. The facts proved were, that the husbaud and wife had lived sepa rately ; that certain payments had been made by the husband to the wife; that- the -husband for, even years had never been called upon by the tradiemen, elm sent in goods to the wife, hut that they had al ways been paid for by her; that two sums of 751. had been paid to her attorney, which she received.-- { He must take it for granted, that payments to the: same amount had been previously and regularly made ,by the husband to her, for otherwise, as she was living separate, she could not have been enabled to' have supported herself separately: The payments / if regular, would amount to 3001.; and he had no evi.. deuce before him to show that 3001. a-year was not a fair and ample provision for this lady, who, by agreement, wactiving from him. • Taking the facts to be that the husband and wife had agreed to live se parate, and had done so upon her receiving a sepa rate maintenance from him, though there was no sti pulation as to the exact sum, and considering 3001. a year a competent provision for a woman Hein, a-part from-her husband, be was of opinion that within the principle of the doctrines laid down, the husband was not liable.—Plaintiff oonsuited. . • ~,,••• • t • oA f rib4l l 4A l4 t s .T. fikeirj,(iligti•Wli" •1tilit00; ebro4/4ibr tat tarsi 44.
