cause which he had now brought forward. hut a line of conduct similar to that which he had now adopted. The three wh arves, O'Meara the valet, Bicknell the butler, and 1)r. Bulkeley, had all sworn to the commencement of the adulterous intercourse before :held of August, yet Mr. Wellesley swore on the 2d e. gun, that till then no adulterous intercourse had taken place be twt re hen and Mrs. llligh.. They left Naples in October, and tee result was that his Lordship would be obliged to give credit to eMeare, whose testimony had been corroborated by two other witnesses Mr. O'Meara had sees a paper tenth 'hewed that the house hired by Borden in the neighbourhood of Captain Bilgh's, was hired for the use of Mr. Wellesley, for the purpose of carrying on hisentercourse with Mee. Bligh. and that it was ao hired at a period antecedent to the date of Mr. Wellealey's deposition, in which he swore that no such intercourse had then taken place. Mr. O'Meara also swore that Air. Wellftley was in the habit, while at Nipples, about this period, of going out late in the evening, with his nee muffled up to prevent the porter from recognizing him. Mr. O'Meara also swore that he had ceased to cohabit with Mrs. Wei kele, after the period when his intercourse with 311 s. Bligh began ; that lie had not been in her bed-room, nor she in his, on any ac • count whetenn. Int a long time previous to their leaving :eaters amid tnatelle. Wellesley seemed evidently to avoid as much as ro sette tbeeompary of his wife, and to treat her with neglect and harshness. The interview with Mr. O'Meara, in which Mr. Wel !ratty expressed his apprehensions about the regions concerning him and Mrs. Bligh, took place on the Ist of August. All these events therefore happened before the 2.1 of August. and Mr. O'Meara, in mentioning the interview, hail given here a date which corroborated his former affidavits. The master, it appeared, ad mitted at that time that this intercourse bad taken place, and was anxious to prevent it from getting abroad, and to prevent it font being believed, at least. if It could not be suppressed. He could therefore call the mater's own testimony to corroborate the esstisiony of the servant. •• Let us hear. no more," said he, " of any difference in the degree in credibility of oar witnesses as such gmounds." He was not solicitous of occupying his lord ship's time in going through the particulates of this story. He was confident that his headship would have no doubt in deciding upon this dilemma. Mr. Wellesley and Mrs. Bligh were introduced to eac.h.other by Mrs. Wellesley at Naples. about the 341 of August, and from that time till they went to Paris the intercourse con. tinned to be =Tendon. The profligacy of the defence itself sup- • plied a second ground for withholding the prayer of the petition. Could it be believed that 3lrs. Wellesley would have invited 31rs. Bligh to come under her protection, if she had known her to be guilty, as had been stated, of an adulterous intercourse with her own husband. Notwithstanding the extraordinary assertions which had been hazarded on the subject, it was a then; unheard of in the annaht of female history, it was inconsistent with the principles of the female heart, that a woman of honour and delicacy should in. vile the paramour of her husband to lire under the seme roof with herself, and thus become the i n strument of her own dishonour. The invitation took place on the Sth of .tugtuit, and no one could doubt tor a moment that the letters which hail been produced were mitten under !lir. Wellesley's influence. He alluded to the letter in which she had written to Mrs. !High, that • see eiebelieved the reports natant at Naples to the prejudice of 3/r. %Vellealey and elre. Rhea. Inviting her at the same time to come and live under her own roof, as she had then been separated tram her husband. Capt. Vie. It was Impressible, Mr. Wellesley well knew, to get Mrs. Wellesley, who was alone acquainted with the truth its this case, to lee an affidavit is contradiction of his statements. She was gone to that piece when she could neither be his victim nor his accuser. Relating on the strong barriers of the grave, he came now to show elate, letters; he came to prove his innocence by those docu ments which he had himself taken =rent prepare for the purpose. fie ODIC to allow that hie .rite was uninjured, because she had been so completely in his power as to write that, which, even if she believed it at the time, served only to prove bow anxi. ottale she desired it, and how credulous her atf:ction for her un. worthy husband had rendered her on the subject. The Solicitor. Central did not care whether the writing of such p.letter were a compulsive or a permissive act on the part of Mr. Wellesley ; corn pulse e or permissive, it was an act which reflected eternal disgrace on him who dared an far to abuse the power which he had acquired new an &lineman woman. 'Was this the man whose control over her was so small that be could not prevent her from forming an in. tunacy with Mrs. Jingle contrary to his express injunctions? Jae mean to say that he could not regulate her in the company which she kept? lie who possessed so entirely her heart and her affections—he who had all her feelings and all her interests laid prostrate like vassals at his feet—who had multi and squandered .anay her property to the amount of forty thousand pounds a year, who hall mortgaged her estates, who had even prevailed spun her to gito up half her pin-money to supply his extrava. genre could he expect any one to believe that he had not anfficient irfluenee over her to enevent her from contracting an intimery with Mrs. Bligh ?

How did lie come to ye: domiciled in the house of the lodging-hieing Italiamtesehing IS widen. near the house of Captain Bligh ? The whole eircum. ' stances with respect to these letters—the wording of them—the as. sertauos now made respecting them—all authorised him in what he lint Resumed, that Mr. Wellesley's zonduet in this, formed the most bitter, the most disgraceful, the moat unpardonable tonna "anon of his offence. 'Who were of the Vesuvius party, he would nit ? %Vas Mrs. Long there ? Who accompanies) Mrs. Bligh on that occasion ?

Wu there not. in that damniag fact, evidenceeufficient to show that their cle ment connexion commenced there? This was lout, five, or six atetitin Wore the letter was written. Did Mr. Wellesley imagine Jest the eonlosionif dates which he had sought to introduce would aliened his Lordship ? Could he hope to persuade him that his woe iris ehe cause of his introdunno to el rs. Meth, that she it on who threw him thus into the way of temptation, that she brought this lady into her house, full as she was of charms, so able and an willing to undo her ? Could he hope to persuade his Lord ship of all this, when he knew that all these transaction' which had tom mentioned hail taken place, at a JAW long antecedent to the writings( that letter, and long before their departure for Florence. They left Naples for Athena, and arrived at Florence on the Bth (jet. 1823. It was not till then that 31ft. Wellesley became aeenetitite.l with those disgraceful circumstances. When at last connected of her husband's infidelity, and of ens. Bligh's guilt, she burst into warn and threw herself immediately upon Dr. Buie keley's protectione but did not separate from Mr. IVellealey till their arrival at Paris, when use saw Lind Mazyborough. It tees appeared that Mr. Wellesley _had made 114 wife the instru. wont of hie own dishonour for twelve months. Ile wined now take the liberty of referring to some circumstances in Dr. Intim loy's affidavit in reply. The part of Naples where Dr. Bulke ley met Mr. Wellesley when it was quite dark, was one where there was a light, a circumstance which removed ale doubts arising Of this subject. Dr. Bulkeley had swore to a whole course of im. proper meduct which had not been contradicted. Even if then parts were left out where Mr. %Vellealey's affidavit conflicts with Dr. Bulkeley's, the substance of the case would still ferule'; but Dr. Bulkeley swore to the cotiversaion in the carriage, and if 3lr. Wellesley swore that no such conversation took piece, the question was, which of them was to be believed ? Itie had still some other circumstances to allude to, as tending to wove that it was improper for Mr. IVelkiley to have the charge of Lae children. It was not proper to ask, as 31r. Heald had done, it anti pertiattlar charge separately was • fit ground for refusing the petition. The qofttian was, whether all together formed a NA eien ground. Mr. IV. had sleeked the 31 ewes Long on the subject of religiensfanaticiam ' • but they had sworn that the asset.asset. yell of air. %Venetic, on that head were unfounded. He could not determine the degree of heat which was adtnisaible on throe subjects: those tracts width one person coesidesed as abound. lag with fanaticism. might be considered by others as liable to no Boob objection. The Alines Long anti Mr. Bnuverie had sworn that they were not so. There was another branch of the case which bemeeht the question immediately in contact with the care of the et:Jaren, and inert/ducal the question whether they were likely to be brought up io a proper manner by the petitioner.

Master Welles ley, hue ever, was not entrained by then feelings, and as sonic one wished to prevent his sport, be 'nee his father, and it was kitten serer to that leuer that his father gave the advice to d-.-41 the fel low, which b el been reed to the Court. Mr. Beanies had read a gnat minty letters written by Mr. W., just in that canting strain of which he had accused the Mines Long; but they were all written after the separation at Paris, and seemed to be a mere compilation, got up eke a proloeue or epilogue—for some particular purpose. His (the htAillitar General's) object in reading the affidavits was merely to egoist his Lordship in his pilgrimage through this mass of papers, by supplyieg dates; but he could easily fill up the out line by an amplification on every circumstance to which he had alluded. He was glad that his duty was at an end, If the course taken by the other aide had been different, his task would not have peen so disagreeable. They had accused his witnesses of perjury, red he was therefore obliged to assert, from the facts of the case, thet the affidavits of Mr. Wellesley were untrue.

It was en applirstion nn the part of the plaintiff, who is the holder of bills amountitia to 2004100f.drawn by the Spanish Government of 11111 on the de fendant, for a commission to issue from the Court of Chancery to the Brazils, for the purpose of obtaining tile evidence of an im portant witness, to enable him (the plaintiff) to proceed in .an action at law, brought by him, to recover the amount above stated. On a former day the case was fully argued by Counsel. The facts are briefly these ; A convention was entered into, after the restoration of the Bour bons, between the Governments of Spain and France, in which it was stipulated that the sum of 300.0001. should be given by the latter power to the subjects of the King of Spain, alto should be able to move injuries sustained by them in consequence of the late war between the two countries, previous to the return of the French Monarch to his country, and Mr. Machado received the money, which he was to pay to the claimants. In the year Itll3, the ac tual Government of Spain, being desirous of obtaining this money, drew bills upon the defendant, and these bill•, to the amount of 200,0001.. wire in the possession of the plaintiff. It was proposed by the Provisional Government of that country to place Mr. Machado among the list of public debtors, If he paid the hills thus drawn, but he, not spproring the measure, declined acceding to the request. He having left Paris, and taken up his residence in London, had an action brought against him by the plaintiff, and hence the present proceedings. The VIIISFIIASICELLOR having entered at some length into the question, sad having referred to several cases which were in point, decided that the commission now sought could not be granted, inasmuch as it was requisite, according to the esta blished rule in applications of a similar nature, for the affidavit on which such application was founded. to state both the name of the witness, and the nature of the evidence which he could disclose. Sow, neither of these things had been done in the present in stance, consequently the commission was refused. INSOLVENT DEBTORS• COURT, 4*nc 21. James Pow, who had been previowdy examined by the Court. was brought up for final hearing, and to receive the judgment of the Court.

Mrs. Christmas was this day examined at considerable length, and, although a reluctant witness, acknowledged that the property Rat made over to her shortly before the insolvent went to prison, and that she then only gave him • shilling as a nominal considcra on, having made some prior advances. 31r. Commissioner HARRIS, in pronouncing the judgment of the Court, observed that the insolvent had by his conduct broufht himself within the operation of the 17th section of' the Act of Parliament. The Court would therefore remand the insolvent, and order him to be confined within Ow walls of the prison for three calendar months front the date of his petition. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE.

The plaintiff wss lame iii one knee. and oneof his hands war crippled by a burn. From the most offensive abuse of each other, they at length resorted to pulling of noses and expectorating in faces. The company present interfered, and a sort of pacific treaty was entered into, the high contracting parties stipulating that the tint who 'violated it should forthwith forfeit and pay a pint of wine, and that the forfeiture should be incurred on-every infraction. The treaty being violated by both panics several times, each in curred the penalty stipulated, and several additional pints of wine were drank. The belligerents having exhausted themselves in mutual abuse, the defendant made several attempts to provoke the plaintiff to fight, but in vain, he constantly pleading his crippled hand and knee. Some kicking on the shins then took place, and after a disgraceful scuffle the plaintiff had one of his legs broken. Several witnesses were examined on both sides as to the question who was the first aggressor and most in fault, when The Jury, under the Learned Sergeant's direction, found their verdict for the plaintiff—Damages. 101.

OLD PASSAGE FERRY ACROSS THE 31fl'EllY. It is with peculiar pleasure we learn that, thus early in the reason., active operations have commenced for improving the mode of crossing the Severn Estuary at this point, an object to those who visit Monmouthshire, South Wales, and the South of Ireland, of considerable importance. On the 10th inst. at an early hour, a numerous and highly respectable assemblage of ladles and gentle men had arrived ;t the Beschley side of the Old Passage. to wit ness the ceremony of laying the first stone of the Pier. The day was uncommonly propitious; aed so great is the interest which the projected improvements have excited in the country, that fresh parties of the first respectability continued to pour in up to the hoar when the tide was sufficiently retired to get at the foundation. It was expected that his Grace the Duke of Beaufort, with whom it has long been a favourite object to improve the communications with Monmouthshire and South Wales, and who has warmly patronited this undertaking, would have been present to do the honours in person. Unfortunately, however, his Grace's absence from Iladmintoa prevented him, sad he therefore requested Philip John Ducarol, E:q., the Chairman of the Old Postage Ferry As sociation, to act as his deputy on the occasion. Abort four o'clock the Committee, with Mr. Ducarel at their head, preceded by Mr. H. H. Price and Mr. Armstrong, the engineers (carrying the plans, &c.) arrived on the ground. Mr. DUCAIIEL then addressed the crowded assemblage around him, in an elegant and very appropriate speech, in which he des. canted with touch torceon the successful application of steam to the purposes of navigation. He stated, that the Association bad taken advantage of this power, and that a steam-boat of adequate force was nearly finished for this station ; but that, to render the accom. motlation complete, it was necessary to construct, from high to low. water mark, a pier, the foundation-stone of which he was about to lay : the public would therefore hereafter enjoy the greatest valve nience, from so perfect a mode of communication between the two shores of the Severn. He concluded his very animated and forcible ' speech, by inviting all who heard him to join in pious aspirations, for the success of this undertaking, to that Omnipotent Being, without whose aid all human exertions were vain. From th e vast 1 and highly respectable assemblage by which he was surrounded, more particularly by the countenances and smiles of his fair court. trywomen, he augured the most favourable result ; and, cheered , by the orient beams of the setting sun, which seemed to have shone I with peculiar brightness on this auspicious day, he could not help quoting the words of • distinguished poet, fancying, that in iota glutton's ear he heard " Netted Vaga • echo thro' her winding bound, " And rapid Severn hoarse applause resound." lie then laid the atone with the usual formalities, and the air re sounded with the,plaudits of the surrounding multitude. The Col ttttt ittee, and several of their frieads, then adjourned to the Beschley Passage House, where an excellent dinner had been provided by Mr. Williams, the respectable landlord, which was served up to a party of above fitly. Captain Jenkins presided ; and the evening parsed rain the trite style of Old English conviviality. The workmen were plentifully 'regaled, and the day terminated, without the slightest accident, as happily as it had begun.—Glou. cest‘r Journal. • Vaga, a name of the Wye. SAINT HARTIIOLOIIEW'S HOSPITAL.—The publicity given to the, proc2edings of the Coroner's Inquest on Mrs. Alcock, and the strong declaratuins of the Coroner, seems to have had the desired erect. A special meeting of the House Committee has been held, and it appears directions given for theattendance in future at Coroner's Icquesta, not only of the gentleman who may officiate as dresser to the principal surgeon, but of the principal surgeon himself. An Inquest was held on Monday, to inquire into the cause of the death of a carpenter, named John Jesoop, who had fallen from a sufrild, erected in front of a new built house in Fiusbury Circus, and wax carried to the Hospital, where he lived but one day; at which Mr. Lawrence, one of the principal surgeons, and Mr. Leese, his dresser, were summoned to attend. 'l'he former gentleman did not appear, but the latter stating to the Jury that the deceased had said he fell off the scaffold by accident. they re turned a verdict accordingly.

Tire tire blew strong from the north-westwanf, and fanned the element into destructive and terrific fury. The front of the warehouse was, soon after two o'clock, one sheet of tire. As soon air the roof' fell in. flaming brands and burning sparks arose into the air, end were driven by the wind over the adjoining yards and hOrtses, which were literally covered with the burning frag menta; a cimaintstsiice which excited great alarm In the neigh bourhood of Barter -street, Harden-atreet, &c. The West cf Eng land tire-oilier engine was the first on the spot ; it was followed, in shunt tea minutes, by that of the Norwich Union office; and, supplies of Water having heen obtained froni the mains of the Howie Waterworks Company, they began to play, with great effect, upon the trarthotue and the contiguous premises. We lament to woe, however, that the flames, after destroying the warehouse, caught the shop of Mr. Steele, the optician , the interior of which was entirely destroy& as well as the valuable stuck-in-trade of that gentleman. Fiirtnnately the flames did not communicate to a warehouse at the back of the ship-ohandlery store, or the loss of property wonht have been serious, it beiug tilled with a large quart thy of valuable produce. Many of the families In the immediate neighbourhood of the warehouse removed their furniture, and, though the tire did not reach their houses, they will be serious sufferers by the melancholy accident. The Norwich Union and the West of lingland Fire.office engines continued to play upon the burning pile and upon tie adjoining premises. Four or five other engines were upon the spot, but up to three o'clock not one of them could obtain a supply of water, and they were thcrerore totally useless. They were subsequently supplied, but by the time they got a supply o f water , t h e tire had stied away from want of fuel, all the timber in the warehouse having been consumed. The morn shown brightly during tan conflagration ; yet it threw a terntie glare over tho atmosphem e and the reflection tinged the clouds, as they H w rapidly acmes the face of the heavens, in a very beautiful manner. It is awes(} far circumstance that the fire should break out on a Sunday slight, and in the cellar. We hope it has not been the work of an iiwondiary --Liverpool Albion.
