THE LONDON JOURNALS. EXTRACTS FROM THE DAILY MORNING PAPERS, • October 15, 1822. [THE TIMES.] We hear from very credible atrthority, and from a person on tile spot, that " a quantity of " artillery is continually passing through Nantes, "on its wav to Bayonne." The writer adds, that " the British Government ought to be ac quainted with this fact." It is very certain, that since the Freud' Cordon of Health has been covvertecl into an army of observation, such an `army may require supplies of artillery. But to -what, we ask, do these preparations tend To an offensive war upon the people of Spain ? If war of any kind- is waged, it must be an offensive war on the part of France ; for there can be no apprehension that the Spaniards, in the present distracted state of their kingdom, should pass the Py.rennees and become the assailants. And, to say nothing of other states, what will Frenc h m en think of a new invasion of Spain ? They at least have learned the danger of such attempts, though their Sovereign may not have had the same ex perience as his subjects. Is there not, also, every reason for supposing that the Baron d' Eroles organizes at Bayonne,—that is, within the.: French tOlitories,--the means of attack on the constitu ;o.• tiv d al government of his own country—Spain ? VA) , does France suffer this ? 4'3( • wei. [MORNING CHRONICLE.] * the Paris Papers of Saturday furnish some fotrther . details of the successes of the Greeks in tW.Morea, which seem row to be fully con tiled. It will be seen that they have also been (-14 . ttnently successful at sea. The Turks, who 4 3 re gentlemen in the true sense of the word, 4i:ending on the industry of the Greeks (the beFs that furnished them with their honey), and Alto by this insurrection lrave been deprived of So-many tribute-paying provinces, appear to be te4uced to very great straits for money, if we ma y jiAge from the measures adopted at Constanti nople. Our readers will find an extract of a letter fin Cfpitt's, detailing cruelties perpetrated i n t h at island_ seemingly not less atrocious than those of Fire and sword have there been the order of qfg:day, 60 villages have been destroyed by these ruthless barbarians. What renders this outrage the more horrible, the Island has been uniformly peaceful, having taken no part in the insurrec tion. Indeed, whoever knows any thing of the situation of Cyprus, will have as IRAN difficulty insrediting this as he would that the Greeks were tranquil in Constantinople or Smyrna.— liow shocking to think that we have been ex erting ourselves to persuade the Greeks' to throw themselves- on the mercy of brutes in human shape, who by „these acts of wholesale butchery prove but too clearly they want nothing but the power to exterminate the Greeks to a man. [BRITISH PRESS.] Madrid Papers to the sth inst. contain accounts olthe second and third preliminary meetings of tj a Cortes Extraordinary. In the Tatter the log puties present took the oaths, and the Presi dent, Vice-Presidents, and ,Secretaries, were !2cted. A Deputation was sent to the King to inform him that the installation of the Cortes was completed, and his Majesty in his answer stated, ftit he would be present at the opening of the §esion. The Espectador of the sth instant con tains a variety of details respecting the military operations in the frontier Provinces. Nothing decisive had taken place. . NEW TIMES .1 The Paris Papers of Saturday arrived yester day by express, with letters from that capital, dated eight o'clock in the evening of that day.— The Rentes opened at 93f. 25c. and are said in iirivate advices to have improved greatly in the course of the day, and to have left off at the ad vanced price of 93f. SOc. All foreign securities were in great demand in the French capital. Spa nish old Bonds had attained the very high price of 87, and the new Bonds 72Z, which is an advance of six per cent. on the former, and 41 per cent. on the latter in the short space of two days Ntapolitan stock had also advanced, and is said to have been eagerly sought after at 81. Nothing further had been derived from the Spanish capital, or frontiers, beyond the confir mation of the arrest of San Martin on a charge of bin concerned in the affair of the 7th July, if the accounts from the Morea are to be believed, a which different versions are given, though each with a favourable aspect towards the Greeks, the war of extermination in that quarter is still unabated. [MORNING POST.] That most unfortunate body of politicians, the t libilhigs, have lately been honoured by a Chester yttivat, called a " Whig Dinner," over which that eminent statesman, Earl Grosvenor, conde -erainded to preside. That it is almost time some decisive experiment should be made to ascertain 4ere, his Lordship's talent lies we are not in -diosposed to admit, and we would certainly much ilther see him C 4 ruling. the roast " at a Chester dinner, thaw assisting to govern the State.— AtOw far his own party may be of the same ,opinion it is not easy to divine ; but from the manner in which he supported their interests land dignity at Chester, it may be fairly doubted whether they would ever wish to see him in either capacity. We know of a set of persons (many of them of high rank), who were lately described as deficient- in common honesty. his lordship is one of those persons, and what must he think of the orator who could so describe him, and those with whom he acts ? Mr. Ilume„ in some of his late exposures , of the . Whigs, hoped the time was not distant when that rapacious body (if not his exact words, this was their meaning) would return to honest courses. Now, this we take to be something ''-more than a broad hint that their ways are not Lgxactly honest at present. What then must his 34bordship, conscious as he is of his own unsullied 11 q6 tegrity, think of the person who could thus mention that body of which he is a Member We must judge of what his Lordship thinks from '.s.. what he did. He proposed the health , of Mr. Hume, with thanks for his exertions in behalf of an impoverished people :" (i. e. of a people im poverished, according to Mr. Hume, by the all grasping, unfeeling, unsparing (Whig land holders.) 4. [MORNING HERALD.) The Congress seems to moderate its preten sions, and to assume an aspect less menacing as it approaches the south. We no longer find in the Continental Journals, under the controul of those who are calledpar excellence—" the Great Powers," the denunciations of chastisement which they recently uttered 'against obnoxious opinions and the independence of nations. Now it appears the object of the Congress is not military interference, but the interposition of good offices. This interposition of good offices must, of course, have a reference to Spain, and as it might, just as effectually, have been exerted through Ambassa dors at Madrid, the Congress would seem tohave no object at all. If the anticipations of its short duration (only six or, seven days) in the foreign Papers be correct, this would seem to be felt by august Personages, and by the Ministerial Ex cellencies themselves ; and the journey to Italy becomes little more than a tour of state and plea sure of two Emperors and their suites, in com pany, from Verona to Rome and Venice. An Evening Paper says, emphatically, and as if au thorised from the proper quarter, that " the power of Great Britain will not be called into offensive ac tion in the affairs of Spain," and then adds, that " moderation and neutrality are her device." — The first sentence seems perfectly true ; for we believe it may be looked upon as resolved that Spain is not to be invaded by Austrians and Rus sians ; but the second seems very questionable. Is it possible, judging only on the face of the thing, that if Austria and Russia resolved to in vade Spain, as the former did Italy, the device of England should hi such a case be neutrality, as in the case of Italy—that the British Govern ment should look on, whilst the Austrians and Russians were occupying Spain with their troops Let it not be supposed, that merely setting the old despotism in Spain again on its legs would suffice ;—it would probably not stand a month, without the support of at least some hundred thousand German or Russian bay onets. It is not likely that England is pledged to Spain to support her independence by force of arms ;—there was no necessity. The influence of England in negociation, powerful as it still is, and interested as she is, in common with most other nations, in preserving peace, strongly ex exerted against aggression and invasion, was pledge sufficient for Spain that there would be no attack upon her independence. TILE NEW MARRIAGE ACT.--The Chester Chronicle contains a letter addressed to it by 'William Hare wood Folliott, Esq., of that city, of which the following is an extract :—" It certainly was my wish and intention to so licit the inhabitants of this city to sign a Requisition to the Right 'Worshipful the Mayor, to call a Public Meeting to petition his Majesty to suffer the Parliament now prorogued to November then to meet for about a week, for the express pur pose of repealing this abominable Act ; but as 1 am this day informed by the Right Rev. the Lord Bishop of the Diocese, that the person who introduced the Bill I allude to, would immediately upon the meeting of Parliament move for its re peal, I relinquish my project." PROVIDENTIAL ESCAPE.—Yesterday, as a little girl, about twelve' years of age, was crossing Kingsland-road, with an infant in her arms, both were knocked doWn by the horses of a gen tleman's carriage, and although the coach man saw the children, he could not possibly pull up the horses till they had passed over them ; no doubt existed in his mind that they were killed ; but, on his turning his head, he saw them being assisted on to the path ; and, on examination, • were found to be without a broken bone or contusion, although both carriage and horses had passed over them, without injuring either, as very fortunately they happened to lay between the wheels, whereby they were pro videntially saved. DETERMINED SUICIDE IN HYDE PARK.—Yes terday evening an Inquest was held at the sign of the Barley Mow, Mount-street, before T. HtGGS, Esq. Coroner, on the body of Thomas Green land, aged 22, who shot himself with a pistol on Saturday last, near Cumberland-gate, Hyde Park.—lt appeared in the evidence of William Ford, a boy, that -en Saturday, at half-past 12 o'clock, the deceased met him in Oxford-street, and he asked whether he could write ? on an swering in the affirmative, he requested him to accompany him to a public-house at the corner of Duke-street, Oxford-street, where he pro duced a piece of paper, on which was written " Thos. Greenland, No. 2, Bit-alley, Turnmill street, Clerkenwell," and promised witness 3d. to write some additional words—" Do take great care of me, and convey me home safe." On finishing it, they left the place, after drinking a glass of shrub, and porter. On their arrival near Cumberland-gate, the deceased went into- the Park, and scarcely two minutes had elapsed when the report of . a pistol was heard, and the deceased lay prostrate on the ground quite dead. James Eglesfield, the assist ant park-keeper, proceeded towards the body, from which the head was nearly blown off, and the pistol, which was shattered, lay 16 yards from the deceased. The corpse of the young man was removed to the workhouse, and his friends were discovered through the medium of the direction in his pocket. The mother of the deceased was present, and produced a letter which had been sent to her by her s-on ;it stated that he had about 15 months back been married privately to a woman from whom he had been separated ; since that she had died, and the event caused a severe impression on his mind. — The insanity of the deceased was established beyond a doubt; and the Jury returued a ver dict—" That the deceased shot himself, being at the time in a fit of insanity." Two young men, who were sentenced at last Perth Circuit to be publicly whipped through Dundee, suffered their punishment on Friday week. A detachment of the Scots Greys from Perth attended, and the executioner from Edin burgh performed the duty. The multitude was immense, but their conduct was only remarkable for its quietness. The criminals received three lashes at 13 different places. They bore their punishment with firmness. BRAZIL. By the Rot) Roy, arrived at Liverpool from 1 Paraiba, which port she left on the sth Septem ber, we have some interesting intelligence from the northern provinces of Brazil. The dates from Pernambuco extend to the latter end of August, where it was ascertained that the squad ron from Rio de Janeiro, finding that the Portu guese troops had anticipated them in enter ing Bahia, had landed the soldiers and arms at Algoas, a port between Bahia and Pernambuco, to which later place the squadron had afterwards proceeded. Accounts had been received from Bahia of the 23d of August : both there and at Pernambuco, the manifesto and decree of the Prince Regent, issued on the Ist of August at Rio de Janeiro, had been received. At Pernam buco they were immediately made public, and were followed by a proclamation signed by Ferreira the President, and the other members of the Provisional Junta," declaring their perfect accord with the sentiments of the Prince Re gent, and their disposition to afford him their entire support. At Bahia no notice was taken by the authorities of the arrival of the documents from Rio. No event of importance had occurred at Bahia, the Portuguese troops remaining in possession of the town, towards which, however, the constitutional forces had advanced from the interior to within the distance of a league and a half. They would receive a formidable acces sion to their force by the troops landed at Ala goas, who, though few in ❑umber themselves, yet having brought near 5,000 stand of arms, would put them into the hands of the inhabi tants, who were said to be almost unanimous in their attachment to the independent party. The Bank at Bahia having refused to pay in silver to any one individual beyond the amount of 30 milreas, an impression was produced among the merchants that that establishment was in reality not solvent ; but a statement was promptly made public by them, from which it appeared that the step had only been taken in consequence of the peculiarly critical state of the place, but that they were fully able, a little delay being granted, to meet all demands upon them, showing clearly by a summary of the state of their affairs, that the amount of their notes in circulation did not exceed 9.85,000 milreas, while they held effects exceeding in value 800,000 milreas ; but which, owing to the general agitation, could not be im mediately realised. MI notes not exceeding 30 • milreas tontinued to be paid regularly. The following is an extract of a letter from Bahia, dated August 21 : ' " This place continues in the same unquiet and distressed si. tuation as - before, and every day our privations increase. For the last four days we have not found it possible to get any fresh meat; dried jerk beef and salt fish, of which two cargoes lucki ly arrived from Newfoundland last month, are likely to be our principal food for some months to come. " The Portuguese troops are chiefly stationed round tha town, to the Engenho de Conceiao on one side, and half-way to the Rio l'eomelho on the other. The independent forces approach within three or four miles, and content themselves with interrupting altogether the supply of provisions. A man was shot by them a few days ago for endeavouring to intro duce a few cattle into the town. Their forces are nume rous, but neither well armed nor disciplined, and do not ven ture upon any regular attack ; yet, as we are informed, the officers and supply of arms sent them from Ritr de Janeiro have been landed in this neighbourhood, we may expect that their exertions will be more effectual from henceforward. General Le Bate, (who is to command the Insurgents, has served as a General of division under Buonaparte, and is said to be a good officer), by prudence, without risking'any battle, may accom plish his object in obliging the Portuguese troops to embark for Europe. All business is at a stand ; no one• makes any pay ments, and no one seems to expect the receipt.", STORM AT THE CAPE OF GOOD HOPE. CAPE TOWN, JULY 27.-It is our painful task to record the most violent gale of wind this Colony ever experienced, the effects of which have been most fatal to the shipping in Table Bay. It had been antecedently remarked that the north-west gales, although Very severe, and bringing into the bay a tremendous and dangerous swell, yet, that they lost much of their terror from the shortness of their duration ; this remark has not proved just in the present unfortunate instance. On Thursday, the 18th, it was new moon ; the weather changed suddenly with it ; it had been remarkably fine for several days, but Friday morning was ushered in with cloud and rain, and with every appearance of a gale coming on ; the weather, however, continued in the same state during the whole of that day ; the following day, Saturday, the gale was very severe; in the afternoon, the ship Royal George, Capt. Bowditch, last from Van Dieman's Land, went on shore close to the jetty; at night, the brig Adriatic, Capt. Rutter, shared the same fate, as did the coasting schooner Good Intent. The ba rometer was as low as 29.50. at 2 o'clock on Sunday morning ; the violence of the wind was then excessive ; and at day-light on Monday morning, the four following brigs were lying on the beach, between Craig's Bower and the Castle, viz.—Olive Branch, Capt. Kind ; Sun, Capt. Murray ; Lavinia, Captain Keith; and Leander, Capt. Middleton. Most fortunately, not many lives were lost ; but we have to lament Capt. Middleton, of the Leander, who was drowned by the upsetting of the boat, in which he had left the wrecked brig. Wm. Brown, seamen, of the Leander, met a like fate, as did James- Graham, seamen, of the brig Adriatic. The ship John Palmer drove very close to shore, but fortunately brought up, and is at present safe it the following brigs rode the whole of Monday at single anchor, although the weather was scarcely more moderate, viz.—Brougham, Marianne, Nelson, and Blues. The brigs Arethusa, Travis, and Antelope kept their ground. The gale abated somewhat on Tuesday, but it blew again with astonishing violence in the night between Tuesday and Wednes day, when rain fell in torrents. As much damage has been done on shore as in the bay ; many stores in Cape Town have fallen in, numbers of houses are seriously injured, and in the vicinity of town the injury individuals have sustained is to a very great ex tent : the number of houses and stores seriously damaged amount to 69. From Wynberg to Cape Town, there are scarcely any premises which have not suffered, and some most seriously. NARROW ESCAPE.—On Sunday last, the 6th current, a little girl, with a younger one on► her back, while attempting to walk along a plank of wood, used as a temporary bridge over the burn at 11Ienstry, was met about the middle of it by another girl, but from the narrowness of the plank they were unable to pass each other, and were afraid to return. — The heavy rains that had fallen on the preced ing night and on the morning, had brought down a perfect torrent from the Ochils ; and the rapid motion of the flood under them, soon made the group so giddy, that they all turobjed into the water. The eldest girl got out by her own exertions, but the two little ones were carried down to the distance of 30 or 40 yards before they were rescued from their perilous situation, by the very laudable and prompt exer tions of a young man, who was directed to the spot by the screams of the sufferers.—(Edirt. burgh Courant ; October 12.) POLICE INTELLJGENCE. BOW.STREET.—EXTRAORDINARY FRAUD. —Yesterday a man, in the dress of a groom, calling himself Thomas Cul lingfard, was brought before THOS. HALLS, Esq. charged under circumstances of a very singular nature. R. Rickards, Esq. a gentleman, living in Wimpole-street, had a pair of coach-horses to dispose of, and advertised them to be sold. In consequence of his advertisement, a very fashionably dressed man, calling himself Mr. Harley of Nelson-square, call ed upon him, and expressed a desire to see the horses, which he thought, from the description given of them, would just suit him. He went with Mr. Rickards to his stables in the Regent's Park, where the price of 100 guineas was agreed upon, and it was ar ranged Mr. Rickards's coachman should take the horses the fol lowing day to Nelson-square, when Harley would, he said, give him a checque upon his banker for the amount; Harley observed to Mr. Rickards, with a careless air, " I suppose you will have no objection to a checque, but you had better take care that the coachman is in time for the banker." On the following day, Saturday the 14th of September, in the afternoon, the coachman took the horses to Nelson-square, and walked them for nearly three quarters of an hour before Harley made his appearance, and then he came to the coachman and said, " You must wait a little longer, coachman, for I sent my groom to the city this afternoon and he is not yet returned." In about another half-hour Harley came again, and said he was very sorry, but that d—d idle rascal of a groom of his was not yet returned ; he ought to have been home two hours before, andhe could not think what detained him. Another half hour had elapsed when a man, calling him self groom to Mr. Harley, came with the latter, who said, " Now, coachman, we can do business." They all went together with the horses, to Winter's livery-stables in Blackfriars road, where they left them, and the coachman returned with Harley to No. 10, Nelson-square, to receive the purchase-money. The coachman was ushered into a room on the first floor, and he was somewhat surprised at observing that the house had all the ap pearance of being uninhabited. Harley took out a book and wrote something upon apiece of paper and gave it to the coach man, who concluded, as a matter of course, that it was a checque. It was at this time past six o'clock. As they were coming out at the door together, Harley asked to look at the cheque, and said " was it pounds or guineas your master and I agreed upon, coachman ?" " Guineas certainly," replied the coachman.— " God bless me," rejoined Harley, " that is very unlucky, for I have written pounds ; what shall I do ?" " You can write another, Sir," said the coachman. Harley said he could not, for he had not another ; " but," said he, " I can give you five sovereigns, which you know will make it up_ 100 guineas."— Harley then gave him five sovereigns, and observed to the coachman when he gave him back the checque, " you will get cash at the banker's for this." The coachman said it was too late, the bank must be closed; to which the other replied, " never mind, you can get it in the morning." The coachman had not gone far before he went into a public house to refresh himself, and took the paper which Harley had given him from his pocket to look at it, when he discovered in the first place that it was not dated, and in the next, that it was not a checque at all, but a promissory note, bearing the names of Messrs. Lush and Grindley, 27, Panton-street, Haymarket. Alarmed at this dis covery he hastened back to 10, Nelson-square, but Harley was not there. He went next to Winter's to look for the horses, but they were taken away. The poor coachman, afraid to return to his master, procured a constable, and waited the whole of the night in the square, but Harley did not come to No. 10. At half-past seven in the morning, however, he found him at No. 41, another house in the same square, belonging to the same person (a Mr. Wollett it was said), and he told him that the paper he had given him was not a Banker's checque, and he must have something better for the money. Harley pro fessed to be very indignant at this, and said it was a pro. missory note upon his agents, Lush and Grindley, in whose hands he had 1,2001. or 1,3001. in cash. The coachman, how ever, would not he satisfied, and proposed that Harley should go with him and the constable to Panton-street. He did so; and when they knocked at No. 27, Harley, asked of a woman, who came to the door, if Messrs. Lush and Grindley did not live there ? She said two persons of those names had taken the back part of the house ; but she knew nothing about them, and they were not then at home. Harley repeated his assurances that they had a large sum of money of his in their hands, and the coachman believing his story, suf fered him to go about his business. The next day, when the p omissory note was presented to Messrs. Lush and Grindley, the latter put a date to it three days forward, and said,— "It is not due yet—there is three days grace." Lush then asked to look at it, and having erased his signature with a pen, he said they had not a farthing of Harley's in their hands, nor had they ever had any money of his. Upon this an ape , plication was made to the Magistrates, and J. J. Smith, a very active officer, was employed. On Saturday morning he got information that the horses were at Austin's livery stables, in Windmill , street, whither he went with the prosecutor's coach man and, in spite of the remonstrances of Mr. Austin, who said they were left with him by a gentleman for sale, he took them away to a place of safety. At noon Mr. Austin called at the Office, and informed the Magistrates that he had been to look for the gentleman who left the horses with him, but he was not at home. In the evening the prisoner, Thomas Culling ford, accosted Smith at the door of the Office, and said he was the owner of the horses, and that he had bought them of Mr. Hu: ley, and was come to claim them. Smith said that he could not have them, but he would be a good evidence, and brought him in before the Magistrate. While waiting for the conclu- sion of other business the prisoner slipped out, but Smith had his eye upon him and fetched him back. He then confessed that the horses were not his, and that he vim only employed to endeavour to get them back. He had, he said, been made a cat's-paw of. Mr. HALLS said he should detain him ; and while he was in the lock-up room Smith asked him if he was not provided with a receipt for the purchase of the horses, to shew in case he had persisted in his claim ? He said he had one, but he had destroyed it. Smith, not satisfied, was about to search him, when he took about twenty small peices of paper from his pocket, and said, " this is it." Smith pasted them together, and there appeared this receipt on a proper stamp : " £BO. Received of Mr. Thomas Cullingford the sum of eighty pounds and a bay gelding for two carriage horses warranted sound. " P. H. HARLEY." The prisoner was again brought up yesterday, and made the same acknowledgment as before. Mr. Har.ts said, he considered the horses to have been felo niously stolen, and he should commit the prisoner as an acces sary after the fact. The prisoner was accordingly committed. THAMES POLICE OFFICE.—LICENSED VICTUALLERS CONVICTED FOR KEEPINNU IRREGULAR HOUSES.—George Beadle, of the Golden Anchor, Lower East Smithfield; Walter Morrison, of the King's Head, St. Catherine's; John Dodridge, of the Crown, St. Botolph without, Aldb.Lte ; and George Setle burgh, of the Bed Lion, St. Botolph, were severally charged on information with keeping irregular houses. The chief surveyor of Police stated, that he had visited the accused houses at different hours when they ought to have been shut up, according to their license, and found in them some of the most notorious characters dancing and rioting ; he had given them all strict caution against such practices, but to no avail ; he had also told them the consequences of an information, which they had taken no notice of. The Magistrate said they had openly and knowingly com mitted an offence against the tenour of their license, and for which he should fine them in the mitigated penalty of 3/. each; and if ever they came there again, he should fine them 101. ; and the 3d time 1001. Mastsfosr-HousE.—Six fishermen were charged by Mr. Howell, the water-bailiff, with having used unlawful nets in Bugsby's-hole, near Blackwall. Nelson, the deputy, stated that he had found it necessary to continue his visits to Bugsby's Hole in disguise. The six defendants were convicted, and their nets condemned. A seventh defendant, a lad about 16, named Moses Gibson, of Hammersmith, was convicted of having, con trary to the act, disturbed the fish from the fish-pots into his net. He, however, received no punishment, Mr. Howell having assured the LORD MAYOR that an improper word had never been heard from the boy's mouth, and that he had supported his mother and five brothers since his father's death in 1817, by the laborious employment. One of the defendants was fined for resistance. UNION-HALL.—CIIARGE OF BlGAMY.—Yesterday Day, a man apparently about 60 years of age, was brought before L. B. ALLEN, Esq., charged with having married Elizabeth Doncaster, his first wife, Mary Lancaster, being. alive. The interest of the case was increased by the fact that Mr. Day was in the habit of preaching to the ungodly in the highways, and under all vicissitudes of weather and seasons. Many of those who walk in the straight path were present. Mr. D ay is also a translator of shoes, and some of his customers in the line were also to be seen. Snow, the constable, one of the Bow street patrol, said that his attention was called to the house of the prisoner, in Chapel-court, Southwark, yesterday mom. ing, as he was on duty. A mob of persons had collected be fore the door, and when he inquired into the cause, he was told that the occupier of the house had three wives, who had all met that morning, were assembled within the house, and were ex pected every moment to have a row, such as had never been heard before. Viritness went into the house, and two of the wives were sitting in the parlour when he entered. The third, who witness believed was only the housekeeper, had thought proper to make the best of her way into the adjoining tene ment, upon the appearance of those who had a better claim to her master. The two wives seemed to be on excellent terms.— Witness, upon hearing the accusation against Mr. Day, whom the two wives were upbraiding, took him into custody. Both wives attended the examination, and the first wife pro ceeded with the charge. She had, she said, been married to the prisoner on the 28th of August, 1809, at Woolwich, at the Dock-yard of which place he was in the habit of working. On the 2d of November following, they parted by mutual consent, and the witness obtained a situation as nurse in noe Hospital, by which she became quite independentLi fire From that period up to the present time she had 00 1 9 h' g ot% interviews with him, in one of which he told h er he vrtle to marry again ; and if she would promise not to fly he would take her into town and settle matters CO {sr' that all of them could live happily She never recelYu.' o . She thing of money from him from theday of their SePar'''. bn t o pases si had not the certificate of her marriage in her could produce it soon. A m t he P,l i ‘ The second wife stated that she had been marrieu cher , '" soner on the 14th of November, 1813, at St. and $ 0, 511 : in Bristol. At that period she was a widow, an" * - „ r p r tont; fortable lodging-house iu that city, and the pris_ . . ; „ °--- te d wi shoe-stall in the neighbourhood, and became soltub — iittle her. He recommended himself to her notice bYniarlY.,.. ghe e , tentions, until at last he took up his abode in herb cni Za ban i " he finally became master of her affections, proPertY, after a most persevering courtship filled with ,_,.,, the course of his wooing, he vid he was a wi do h e r mall t,OO -Y e and he promised great things, but he soon l eft away the goods, leaving her in a destitute condition;te bad The prisoner, in his defence, admitted that his first via gro ken the truth, but denied that she had told the whole theft very f p a r c e t v w io a u s s fo to rg h o i t s te fi n r b st y m he arr r, j an ag d e_t tha sh t e vras W -'O3 th at f a of she had a son on board the Cu 'Hells East Indiarnaht°9l'd°l,l.olol4t soon expected home.
