COURT OF ARCHES-SATI:DAT. GILL V. GILL. TMs case was originally asnitPromoted by Mrs. Gill against her husbaod, a gentleman of fortune, residing at Okel Court, and in Herefordshire, for a restitution of conjugal rights. In bar of this snit, Mr. Gill pleaded that his wife bad been4ulky of adultery. The charge as tried, and the Court gave judgment. that Mr. Gill had not on'? failed in the proof, but that the evidence bad established the innocence of Mrs. Gill; they. there fore, seutenced hint to restore her to conjugal rights, and receive and treat her with conjugal affection. This sen tence was passed on the 4th of May last. A certificate was subsequently presented by! r. Gill, stating that he had received his wife back, and obeyed the sentence of the Court, and he prayed to be dismissed from the suit. This was opposed by Mrs. (1111, who denied that the sen tence of the Court had been complied with, and prayed that ber husband might be pronounced in contempt, and alimony allowed her, Dr. LUSHINGTON now said, on behalf of Mr. Gill, that be bad done all he could to obey the sentence of the hentence of the Court; bad received his wife back again into his house ; that she bad left it forcibly against his will, and that it war her own fault if she remained War. Dr. Jr4Nell, on behalf of Mrs. Gill denied that the sentence of the Court hail been complied with. Soon after it had been pronounced, Mrs. Gill wrote to the honsekerper of Mr. Gill, who was then abroad, stating that sha should, in conformity wall the decree of the Court, prepare to enter into the siercise of her conjugal rights, and should enter into her husband's house at Okel Court. She did present herself at the house, and wes admitted into Do ion by the housekeeper. In the meantime Mr. Gill, who had not heard of the step his wife had taken, wrote to the housekeeper. telling her be no means to admit tier ur any of her friends to the house at Okel Court, as she bad no right there whatever; and adding that lie believed her object in wanting to come there was to be near a gentlemen with whom he was sure (he said in confidence) she had been for some years improperly • connected. When he learned that Mrs. Gill had dee° admitted ism the house, he wrote a second letter to his housekeeper, directing her not :to let either her or her servant have any provisions. mist to allow any friends or any one whatever to come and see her, and luck the doors of all the rooms in the house, except a drawing room and bed room, and put padlocks on those•loors of which she did not possess the keys. He at the same time sent a written notice to Mrs. Gill, sta. ting that if she went on any of hispremises in Hereford shire. he should treat her as a wilful trespasser, for it *as not only against, but abhorrent to the law, if she went on any of them without his consent. The servants of the honse at Okel Court, did, however, give Mrs. Gill and her servant such provisions as she required. On the 19th of Aug., this gentleman, who hail represented himself as having been perfectly ready to obey time sentence of the Court, came home. Jiro Gill was sittiug in the par lour. lie entered the. room in a violent passion, seized her by the arms, and shook her violently. lie then in sisted upon seeing the letters and papers she had about her person, and demanded tire keys of her boxes: She hesitated, but he seised her pockets before she could comply, and commenced a search upon her person. She tried to escape from him at the dour, hut he locked it, and detained her. She was obliged to cut her pockets off to give them to his to prevent his violence, and ul• timately was forced to jump out of the window ou the 1 m an. nbrre ,e followed her, and treated her with great ix.l-Lt.e. He ot,:••rr.; :hit uve heti room should be al; . . lotted to her with ope petiole, and denied her own see. vent, add appointed another to attend upon ber ; hut this latter, however, was not allowed to eater the room or to have any conversation with her, but was desired merely to take orders at the door. On a "second oera. lion, Mrs. Gill was put under great alarm by her has band entering the room in a forious manner wi th a knife; and when she asked for water, being unwl. lie seised it with the evident purpose of throwing it over her. saying. " I'll faint you, with • devil to yon. " At length she was obliged to send for her solicitormith whom labs left the bona of her husband, finding that it was im possible to live with him. He had told her that she must go with him to his house in Wales, at a place called Rhivaraba, and from thence to a place where be said she might pray for her sins, but she refused to go with him to Wales. The affection of Mrs. Gill for her husband and for her children was still so great, that notwithstanding her treatment, she was desirous of living with him. The treatment as proved by the evidence was the reverse of that which the Court would eared from him, but she did not wish to press the point to the extent of declariug him in comtempt of the Court. It was not intended to prescribe to the Court in what man ner Mrs. Gill must be treated ; all that was asked was, that she might be protected, if she could not remain in safety with her husband, who ought to be obliged to pay her alimony from the than his conduct had driven her from home. Dr. LIIIIIIINOTON, in behalf of Mr. Gill, said, that although the Court assigned the husband to treat his wife with eonjogal affection yet, as far as his feelings were concerned, it was not in the power of that, or of any ether Court is the world, by their sentence. to alter them. Mr. Gill had a suspicion of hie wife's fide lity: It was trifortunate ; but he believed her to have been unfaithful. Now he (Dr. L.) contended that Mrs. OM had not behaved as she wee booed to have done, to allay those feeling, of her hatband. At the time Mr. Gill wrote over to his housekeeper not to admit his wife, be contemplated an appeal from the sentence of the Coat% and had made some offers for a cosnpro seise, which it would have been muck better to have accepted. Supposing., however, that Mr. Gill had re fused is the first instance to obey the sentence of the Coat, the disobedience was purged by subsequent obedience. It was not the way to allay the feelings of Mr. Oill that Mrs. Oill had adopted, • in sending a notice to his housekeeper that she should take pos session of the house, instead of first sending a cos ciliatory letter to her husband. Nor was her heal tidos in delivering up her letters the way to conci liate him ; for he bad a right to inspect her papers, and only requested to see suck as were, upon the face ofttbem, suspicious. From the evidence on be half of Mr. Gill, it appeared that she had followed him about the house, using irritating language; her ref*• sal to live at his house, in Wales, on the grounds that it was In a solitary and uninhabited country, was, too, without a justification; for, she had no right to prescribe to her husband where be should live, and the house, besides, was one io which they had before lived fur many years. The fact of her haviog quitted the house, against the consent of her husband, must, tits Learned Counsel argued, preclude her froze any relief from the Coed. He chiefly relied that lbws was no principle in the practice of the Court that went to direct where their seatehee should, in such cases, be executed; and,ln conclusion, he contended, that the conduct of Mrs. Gill was the reverse of concilitary, whiob it ought to have been ; that she was bound to have remained with her hushes& and that the Court should therefore dismiss the snit against her. Sir JoiN Ntcuot. said, when the Court pronounced judgment on the original complaint, in this case, it was with strong hopes that the pieties would have returned to their duties towards each other, as husband and wife, sod towards their children as father and mother. la the attempt to return to her rights, Mrs, 0. bad certainly, in the opinion of the Court, not begun prudently, in sending a notice to the housekeeper that she would take possession, instead of having written first a conciliatory letter to her husband, to allay the feeling which possess ed him, that she bad forfeited her rights as his wife, and the mother of his offspring. The Learned Judge proceeded at great length, to give it as his opinion that the delay of Mr. UM in obeying the sentence of the Court, was not justified by saving that he contemplated an appeal, as be had had sufficient time to make up his mind on that head, before be wtote the letters to his servants, directing the treatment they should give his wife, than which nothing was more reprehensible, parti cularly his having endeavoured to poison the minds of his servants against his wife, whose innocence had been proved, by making another charge of criminality against her. What could be more linjurious than this charge, , which he did not attempt to prove ; or than his ground. less attacks on her character, in the frce of her own ler. rants? This, in itself, formed a charge of very great cruelty on his part. Allowing that there had been co louring on both sides, the Learned Judge said that the conduct of Mr. Gill to his wife, on his return to his house at Okel Court, was against either the laws of the country or of religion, or of cdmmon humanity. In taking his wife home, lie was bound to treat her ts his innocent wife, for she had been proved to be innocent ; he was bound to admit her to his bone fide residence, where him self and his children really resided; l,e was hound to ad. mit her to the joint and reasonable eontroul of their chil dren and the servants ; and until she did that which for feited her rights, he was bound by thevow which he lied made at the altar, to love, comfort and honour her. The law did not allow a husband to treat his wife at his ca price, and would protect her from any thing which could in law he considered as cruelty. The very first act which Mr. Gill had exercised towards his wife was one of sus picion. In what respect suspicious? He had no right to entertain suspicions against his wife, whose innocence bad been proved ; and the act of forcibly reaaching her person for letters, was one of gross insult and degradation; and the act of locking her in the room, one of unjustifia ble duress. The act of dragging her back was an act of violence, and unwarrantable violence. The feet of re straining her to bee room, and allowing a servant only to speak to her at the door to receive orders, what was that but solitary confinement? The whole formed what in law would be considered acts of cruelty ; and cruelty, connecting it with other circumstances in the case, for which the Court would grant her e divorce, had that been her prayer. The husband's vying that he had received, or would receive, his wife back, and restored her to her conjugal rights, would not do; they must be satisfied that there was a real restoration. Upon the whole transactions of the first day, the unfounded charge the nets of violence against the wife, were such as would, if she prayed it, induce the. Court to order her seperate and permanent ali 'non y. The Court, however, refused to accede to his prayer, and to dismiss the suit. They or dered that lie should allow her alimony from the time that she had been compelled to quit the house ; and as the charge declaring her husband to be in contempt was not pressed, the Court would hold over that part of the case in order to allow the intervention of friends to make an amicable arrangement, which would be the • most beneficial, as it was perfectly hopeless, after what • had taken place, that the parties could again live tope. thee and fulfil the duties of father and mother with hap piness to each other. or beatfit towards their children Alimony wee therefore pronoueced le be dee to the wile sod the question of contempt irit open.

On Friday afternoon, as he was walking near the corner of Token house yard' he 'gate a niece of paper ly ing on the ground, and, oe opening it, ' found he had In his possession one Bank note for;2001., one.for 100/.,tone for 50/., two for W. each, two sovereigns, and two shil lings. Upon discovering the treasure, he turned abort , anti was proceeding towards the Mans ion House to put it into the hands of the Lord Mayor, when a men not quits so honest as himself. walked up to him, and said, be bad just dropped the notes, and would not give the worthy renew any more trouble, but take them on the spot.—Ciroom civilly told the "Ilentleman" to accost pony him to the Lord Mayor, and he should get what belonged to him, " the 201. as well as the halfpence," The claimant walked part of the way with the finder, but suspecting the simplicity of hie chararter, walked off , before they reached tiro Mansion House steps, muttering something against bum. ' • Mr. Homan immediate] r sent over to the Bank, to let the person who mi ols t apply to stop the notes know that they were safe, and desired tiroons to he in attend ance on Saturday, as no doubt a proper reward would be given to him by the loser. It was soon ascertained, that the clerk of Mr. Ds Costa, a merchant in the city, was the loser. Mr. Do Costa himself attended neat day, and prepented Broom with a ten-pound note.—The poor , man received some commendation for his good sense in questioning the honesty of the " Clentleurau" who spoke to hiui in the street, as well is for his own integrity. Vioasoie-rranc—Saturday, William Thereat', was brought before Samuel Twyford, Esq. the Presiding Ma glottal., charged with exciting another man to commit a burglary. A young man stated that he lived near Uray's-inn-lent, last Monday. between four an I five o'clock in tbe afternoon, he was in the tap-room of the Black Dug public-house, Gray's-lost-leee, drinking a pint of porter, when the pd• loner, whom he had seen several times in the same house, mime In and sat down by him. They entered into coiner gado., when the prisoner drank out of the witness's pint, sod then asked him if he would bola a robbery! The pri soner said he and another had pleased the robbery of Mr. Daker's house, No. b 4, Chiswell•steviet. and if the witness would join them their plan was this :—They would go to Mr. Daker's house on a certain night. Omit eight o'clock, and would watch the (stay out: one should thee Mooch at the door, and the moment the servant opened it the other Iwo should be ready to rush in and secure her, after which they could easily plunder the house. The prisoner said be knew where the property was, and described the situation of a trunk fell of silver plate and eat glass. The witness coati seed. 1 aceeded to his proposal until I knew the whole transaction, and them I took the first opportunity of going to Chlswell-street, mid telling every thing to Mr. Daker."— It appeared also that last Thursday night was the time fixat e but the witness tallest in his promise, and had slice been threatened by the prisoner. Mr. Defter said, that this witness bad apprised him of the plan at tintless he meted, and he thee related his story in precisely the same way.

BOW STREET.-SATVRDAY. tospuramms EfFIECTI OF INTOXICATION. Jaws Marquis was brought up on a variety of charges founded on conduct the most inconsistent, resulting from the stupefying effects of liquor. This case po d an additional interest from the circumstance of the prisoner's being of respectable con nexions, and well educated ; but from an habitual re course to spirituous liquors, he is from time to time in such a state of derangement as to be guilty of the most ontrsgeous and indecent acts ; for these he his been io durance in the various prisons and watch houses of the metropolis for several months, with but trifling inter tnission. When discharged by proclamation at the last Middlesex Sessions, after receiving the usual donation of a shilling, he immediately resorted to the nearest public house, became intoxicated, committed an act of vagrancy, expiated his offence by three months impri sonment in Tothill Fields, and hail not been liberated more than three days, when, being again in liquor, and ',oaks mad, he exposed himself in the most indecent manner in Covent Darden, and on being remonstrated with upon the subject by some respectable gentlemen who were passing, he seized a dog by the neck and threw it at those who had made the praise-worthy re monstrance. Oa being placed at the bar of this office on these charges, the prisoner, whose wretched habiliments be spoke poverty, (by whatever cause produced) entered into a detailed statement of bis unfortunate propensity, and it's still more unfortunate effects upon his sanity. From this statement, it appeared, that he bad fur several years held a situation in the Ordnance Office, for which he received at this moment a retired annuity. Having dropped a hint that he was married. The worthy magistrate (R. MINSHULL, Rag.) said that although he felt a considerable degree of pity end compassion for the prisoner, yet she frequency and serious nature of his delinquencies called upon him to protect the public from the disgusting nature of Ills offences; he should therefore remand him until his wife came forward, and some arrangement for his safe keeping should be made. BETRAORDINARY CHARGE Or ROBBERY AO lINST or. FICRIIS. Matthews, a city officer, ;;FJones, belonging to the establishment at this office, were charged for striding 4 sovereigns from a drawer in No. 10, Brewer Street, Long Acre. Mr. Luke Berkly, the accuser. a gentleman whose tongue was pretty well tipt with the brogue and not a little given to the blarney, began by stating, that he sometimes carries loads at rather "unseasonable hours,' which assertion his Worship appeared,to agree with ; at the same time bringing to the accuser's recollection that for such deeds no very loqg period had elapsed since he had procured for himself 6 months free lodg ings in a house of very capacious dimensions; vulgarly denominated a domicile of correction, but in the present case, its correcting qualities appear to have failed in their effects. Mr. Luke Berk'' , having. among :he propensities of his youth, acquired a partiality for a good poli§a, rolled, by those who take its merits on hearsav, aqua rile, not only distga, little of this article for Isis own use, but taking upon himself the double duty of distiller and porter, contrives to let such of his friends, as are inclioed to pay, have a tittle of this exhilarating twoopo•g• snugly 14111 noon et their doors, behove the vul g ar Imprortomence of the Excise bas awakened front 16 0 41 o l o tA t "W O( t au t' adventure df this kind gre i wt l l e ie kegpereser outi t tale.

In the execution of ih mi the alledged robbery was said to have taken place.

The officers, however, insisted they saw nothing h a t a few shillings and s.•me half pence, and signified iloulit of the gold ever being there. This Mr. Berkly warmly resisted, and proffered to show his iVoiship the Gold instanter. The Worthy Magistrate said that if officers were too be charged in this wanner, it would be impossible to get a search warrant executed at all, and dismissed the case much to apparent dissatisfaction of the complain ant, who departed muttering something About the auvwe of Mr. Harmer.

Berton Crescent. committed the act of infanticide upon ber child. It appears that the girl bad been in Mr. Eoitees employ only !twee months. but atter being there a seek or two. Mrs. Eckett thought she wan in tie family way. and communicatiog her suspicions to her buslisod, the girl was estansiaed by a doctor, who was also .f the same opinion, but the girl denied it. thtbseqeently she wn spoken lofty bee cousin, who peneaded her to go home, but shoed!! denied the fact, and refused, alledging that her father had &large family. Wednesday morning, about eight o'clock, Mrs. Eckett went into the girl's room, and found her in bed; s h e a t the same time complained of a violent pais upon h-r chest. Mrs &keit considering her in labour, sent i.r her snot ;but previous to her arrival the child was born, no person being with the girl in the room at the 'lame time. Mrs. Eckett examined the infant, which was aline and perfect in every respect; but it bled vary much the neck, and which they were unable to stop, nor coull they get any thing down the child's throat; the w on nO s on the neck afterwards got black. Mr. Wakefieldo medical gentleman, was sent for, and the next mut Mag. he found the child !dead, with much congealed hloc.d about the mouth and nose, as also some sera.chin on the neck produced by violence; and he was of opinion it died in consequence of such injuries. On Monday nig)at, a fire took place in the dwelling house of Mr. Balme, in Queen apart., in this town, ow• ing to the extreme carelessness of the female servant, wbo had placed a lighted candle under the bed, in which three children were asleep, while she looked for some article of dress. The bed, as might be experte,l, was soon in flames, :and the (righted girl went down stairs, where she remained for some moments without mentioning the mischief she had done. The smell of fire soon, however, alarmed the mistress of the Isoome, who ran op stairs, where site found her children in bed, unconscious of the flames with which they were sur rounded. instead of being overcome with the rnagni• tude of the danger, the peril of her children served only to invigorate Mrs. Bahne's resoketion. S'•e rushed in. to the room, at all hasarsls, and dragged the three to. nocents, in evecessioo, oat of the bed, aed having plan. ed them in safety, returned to assist in extinguishing the fire, which fortunately did tint extend beyond the room in which it originated. We think this a proper occasion for stating, as a caution to serv.lntn, that (by an act passed iu the lith year of his late Majesty's reign) should they, through negligence or carelessness, fire any dwelling house, they should, on convictioo before too magistrates, be adjudged to pay the sum of one hundred pounds, anti in default of payment to be eetomitfr,l to the House of Correction for Is 'Hondo, and there to tie kept to bard labour.—(Lecde Aferensy.)
