It was an action brought by the PhiiiitilT against the Lhfcsidant, tip recover compensation for the seduction of his wife, and time denims a weir laid at twe..ty II wind pounds. Mr. Fwrjeant Cortgy, in swing the circumstances under which the action w as brought, add d the Jury in a very eloquent speech. Such cases, he observed, were unfor tunately of so frequent occurrence, that it was unneces sary be should occupy their lime by any obeervai ions upon their nature or importance. The injury for which the Plaintiff sought compensation, was our of the most serious whirh could be inflicted on one human being by another, awl involved the total wreck of all his happiness in this life lie considered Juries nu such occasions as the guardians of public morals, and lie trusted that by their verdict iu this ease. ',talked as it «as by peculiar aggravation, the Jury would twiner the sentiments which they enteitained of PP gross a violation 'drill those principles of honour and virtue, without the existence of which society mot sink inns a .late nfOrlebasement slid depravity. The Defendant had, iu the first instiller, pleaded the gene' el issue, as if he nen- inclined In joistify his conduct. Subsequent con sidirrstiou, howesve►. hail induced him to slier his course, and to suffer jndgment to en by default; thereLy con fessing his guilt. If, from this rhstige in the mode of tworeeding, it was to he inferred that the Defendant meant indirectly to n spress a latent feeloic of regret for the mis chief of which he had been the :willow, his conduct was to Ise applauded ; bnl if he icily el ght that he should thereby diminish the nonnent of iherlarneees whirls he would be exiled upon to pay, lie was must cartgietisly mistaken, for those to wl the facts wens Id this day tie prereided, whether lie look ed to the worthy Gentleman who sat in the sliair, or the e specta Isle Juts to w hem be bad the honour of addressing ',um bel, lie was persuaded they were as competent and as willhne to protect the interests of their fellow.citugens as pessims who might be found in places of greater dignity: The Maio. tiff in this case was (Noun' Temple, who was an Officer in the Buckingham Yeomanry, and also held a commission in the Buckingham Militia. He was married to his present wife its the year 1807. He was then 16 years of age, ■nd she was 19. The match was nne of the purest and most ardeut ■ffectiuu, and was sanctioned by the friends of boils parties. Mrs. Temple was a Lady of great personal beauty, and was mistress of those accompli►hments which are most estimable to society. Sloe bad, however, other properties which were of greater value in the eyes of a husband. She was an affectionate wife, an exemplary mother, said a sen sible and rational companion. Soon after the marriage bad been solemnised, the Plaintiff joined his regiment ; be was ate ponied by his wife, who, from that period, with the exception of some few intervals, down to the discovery of her sinfiirt mode connexion with the Defendant, re mained his constant companion. Their lives were passed in tune wuhsternsplyd scene of domestic happiness; the Plaintiff invariably, unless upon any particular occasion, preferring to done with his lady, rather than joining the mera of his brother talus eta. They kept Ilse best society, and dur ing the stay of the regiment at Buckingham, were in the habit of very frequently visiting the Marquis of Bucking- Iron, at Stowe, near that town; and many other reaps etable fatuities its the neighbourhood. The Defendant, who was an officer of dragoons, was introduced to the Plaintiff by some of his brother officers; lie was nephew to the late Lord runlet., and at the time of the intiodoction, resided at Addington House, the scat of his late father. At this period the Plaintiff resided its pail of a large mansion-huuse in lbe town of Buckingham, and on all occasion. received the Defendant at his table upon the must friendly and con fidential futding. Ist the beginuitig of 1917, the Defendant having become involved its some amha,rasaments which pre. vented has supporting an establishment at Addingtou-house, equal to that aids father, he was invitsd by the Plaintiff to occupy a part of the house in which he lived himself. The house, from its 'Use, was particularly calculated fur such as weewinuiudrtion. It was provided with •a &aile staircase, and, in fact, the only communication between the tole side of the building and the wilier was by means of a door on the first floor, vbieb it was agreed should be kept lucked, From this moment the intercous se between th • family of the Plaintiff• and the Defendant became more frequeut ; and the Plaintiff took terry occasion to critter the sincerity of his friendship towasds the Defendant. Thus matteis omit d until tliemonthofOct, 1817, vibe a the Plaintiff was su minted into Suffolk to 'titian] the sick bail of Ins mother. Ile obeyed the unwelcome call, and proceeded to Sittfolk, leaving his aife in Buckingham, accompanical by her sister, Allis Hum ywitaaJ. It was during this absence that the De. Pendant rotund means, by court east and unceasing sits, to se• duce the affections of Mrs. Temple. Michaer lie accom plished the ultimate object of his dishonourable pursuit or MA at that time, it was impossille to say ; but that he had sues ?tiled too well iii sapping the foundatiou of the virtue of his Mind's wife, was made manifest en the motith of May following'. It appeared that, finding the stoppage of the in. ten's' c ..... snooleati.in betwecu the two sections of the house a considerable bar to his views, under the pretence of tieing obliged to hrcik open a door, and the expected viii of some of Isis list. re,he .un•eeded in okiaiiiing the key of the closed passage from Isis utiouspactiog friend. Thus secure of the means of egress from sod ingress to Mrs. Temple at such seasons as he might deem most convenient, be coati• need his clandestine suits, auth was, it was belts Ted, but too fiequently the inmate of that lady's bed.ahsiubec On two several uccssiosus, at an early hour in the usionnig, be was seen reaming f and going into Mrs. Temple's tioum, immediately after her bu•baoJ bad quitted it, anti hail pro (-sutrd to his du ssine•rosein, which was on Ilse ground floor. At length these facts were communicated to the Plaintiff, and all los happiaess was for ever blighted. This was the short atatetueut of the facto , hut the Jury, in op. portioning the damages to whirls the Plaintiff was entitled, would take into their consideration all the memo). 'latices by which those facts were attended. There was here no ground for pleading the youth and inexperience of the offender. Ile was • man of mature age—used 11l the world, and could foresee all the cuisseqiwneta uf his della goency. A case mute enormous or snore aggravated it was impossible I. present to the attention of a Jury. They would recollect the situation of the parties. The wife of the Plaintiff had for ten years lived wills her husband in ilia deism bonds of affection. She was the mother of six child_ Fen, to wimp aloe was an attentive and duetting parent. The Defenditat was a man upwards of thirty yews of age, and it could not he mid that the Redact l of the wife of his busuut friend was the effect of 11/11,111Ly or accident. Ile must have been aware of all diet would follow his per. fidy ; he most have known that the Plaiuiff would he de prived of the wife of his heart, •iill that his fluidic,' must he deprived of a mother; oil this he emstemplated, soul yet lee was not emitted until he sacrificed this unhappy woman, by the cruel hypuesisy of affected lute, to his unhallowed lust. There was our feature peculiar to this case, which was also worthy of remark. Some time before this business occurred, this unfortunate wont's' had been, and was at this 11104411114, in • slate of pregnancy. Ina A* days she might be the mother of another Saran'. The child of which she was then peeguant would he hurts under such circumstances, moil at such a time, as would entitle it to all the claims of the legitimate child of a legitimate parent. Ile called upon the Jury only to conceive how this would operate on the mind of the Plaintiff, who, while he was em bracing this chisil as his owls, insist be its doubt whether it was Out the off.pling of the adulterous conuextua of his ear. Thus, iu fact, the • hole family was lounged initi radicle misery. It was impuoible, he thought, to give da mages tau greal against the author uf such cala .s. Taw witnesses to support the case were then called: The Rev. Newry lawfl. it deposed to the following effert He is the Rector of ll'ettoo, is Nostliumbeiland, and of %Vi sr b u rtou, in Borkinehamshire. lie iv a widower, and has two sons rod three danghtei a.
