SAMUEL LA'MERT, 37, REDFORD-SQUARE, LONDON, Doctor of Medicine, and Matric , dated Member of the University of Edinburgh, Honorary Member of the London Hospital Medica Society. Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, &c., &e. M.AY be consulted, personally, or by letter, on the various disorders of the nervous and generative system, resulting from juvenile irregularities and excesses, which have pro duced more misery in youth, degradation in manhood, and prema ture decay at all stages of life, than perhaps any other class of dis eases known to modern pathologists. Long and practical experience in the treatment of these diseases has proved that there are in exist once secret causes of self-acquired miseries and disappointed hopes in existence, traceable to certain pernicious habits, to which Nervous Debility, various torms of insanity, Unhappy and Unfruitful Marri ages. Impotency, Local and Constitutional Weakness, and their endless modifications owe their almost entire origin. It is absolutely necessary that all men should know that there are principles of personal management which cannot be violated without incurring grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret succeed the heyday of inconsiderate self-indulgence, how these penalties may be mitigated, how the sting of their bitterness may be removed, and how the evil and its con equenc es may be avoided, and above all, that there is scarcely any degree of physical infirmity or functional derangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure DOCTOR LA'MERT has for a long series of years been engaged in art extensive practice in the treatment of these delicate com plaints, and s the only legally qualified Physician who, regardless of the taunts and envy of the hypocritical and mock-modest, has had the confidence, through the medium of the public press, to direct attention to these enormous evils, from which no grade of society is tree.

THE QUEEN V. THE DUKE OF CAMBRIDGE. This cause was resumed to day. Some further evidence having been adduced the case went to the jury, who, after a short deliberation, re turned a verdict for the Crown upon some of the issues, and for the defendant upon others, the effect of the ver dict being to negative the existence of a carriage road, but establishing the right of, the inhabitants to a foot path across the warren. ATKINSON V. BALDWIN. This was also a special jury case. The action was brought against the defendant, formerly the member for Totnes, to recover damages for the seduction of the wife of the plaintiff. The defendant pleaded " Not Guilty." Mr. M. Chambers, Q.C., Mr. E. James, Q.C., and Mr. Bovill, were counsel for theplaintiff ; Mr. Serjeant Shee, Mr. Ballantine, and Mr. Knapp were for the defendant. Mr. Chambers, in opening the case, said, that this was an action brought by tee plaintiff, Mr. John Glen ton Atkinson, against the defendant, Mr. Charles Barry Baldwin, for having committed one of the most grievous injuries and one of the most serious breaches of friend ship that one man could commit towards another. The plaintiff claimed damages from the defendant for having had criminal connexion with his wife, and the circum stances he should lay before the jury would disclose a degree of cool indifference to the rights of friendship and hospitality such as was rarely met with in cases of this description. The defendant was a man not unknown in public life ; he was a man of Imrsiderable fortune a nd of mature age. He had fOlinerly beeniTnemter of Par liament ; and it would be a part of the case, which in the discharge of his duty he should feel it necessary to lay before them, to prove some of the circumstances con nected with the public life of the defendant. •The plain tiff, although a gentleman undoubtedly by his condition in life and education, yet certainly was not in such a high position as the defendant. He had originally prac tised as an attorney at Peterborough, and was clerk to the magistrates at that place, and while he was thus en gaged he became acquainted with the lady whom he subsequently married, and who was the unhappy subject of the present inquiry. She was the daughter of Mr. Tomlin, a gentleman of large fortune, who lived near Peterborough. At first the parents of the young lady were averse to the match, but at length they consented to it, and the marriage took place with the consent of all her family. They lived in happiness and comfort for several years, and two girls were the result of the union. They were both still young, the plaintiff being under 40, and there was every prospect of a continuance of happi ness until the plaintiff unfortunately was introduced to Mr. Baldwin, the defendant. After the marriage had taken place, Mr. Atkinson relinquished his office as clerk to the magistrates and engaged in a brewery speculation, and in 1851 it appeared that the state of health of his wife rendered it necessary that she should leave Peter borough for change of air. Her father, in addition to being possessed of property in the neighbourhood of that town, also had a marine residence on the Isle of Thanet, called Dane-court, and it was arranged that Mrs. Atkin son should go there for the benefit of her health ' • and it was here that she unfortunately was introduced to the defendant. He had been a married man for a great many years ; his wife was in ill health and staying at Torquay ; and it appeared that the defendant, while at a dinner party at the residence of the late Mr. Hum irey, who was at that time residing with his lady in the neighbourhood of Dane-court, was introduced to the plaintiff and his wife. An intimacy soon, it appeared, sprung up between theta ; and, taking into consideration the facts of the position of the defendant and that he was 65 years old, the jury would readily believe that the plaintiff was not likely to entertain for one moment the idea that he could so far forget himself or what was due from him as a man of honour as to take advantage of the confidence reposed in him to endeavour to seduce the affections of his wife. While the parties were in this neighbourhood they were on the most friendly terms. Mrs. Atkinson was fond of music ; the defendant was also fond of it. He had, it appeared, a box at the Opera, and conversation upon matters of this description was pleasing to the lady, and there was no doubt that they were on the most friendly terms—Mr. Atkinson, from the circumstances and position of the defendant, not having the slightest suspicion as to his object. About this period, it would be remembered, there was a good deal of excitement in the political world. The de fendant had been defeated in a contest at Totnes, and a petition was pending in reference to the election ; and as Mr. Atkinson had always taken considerable interest in political matters, and his views coincided with those avowed by Mr. Baldwin, this tended to increase the in timacy between them, and when the plaintiff and his wife left Dane-court the plaintiff invited Mr. Baldwin to visit him at Peterborough. Mrs. Atkinson still con tinned unwell, and in the course of 1852 it was found advisable to send her to Ramsgate, where a lodging was taken for her, and she and the plaintiff lived there to gether, at such periods as the latter could spare from his business at Peterborough. The intimacy with the de fendant still continued, and it had indeed by this time ripened into a sort of affection, and it would seem that the plaintiff, from the defendant's age and the kind ness he had so often expressed for him and his children, was induced to look upon him almost in the light of a relation, or, at all events, of a very kind and good friend ; and, not entertaining the slightest suspicion of anything improper, the plaintiff readily consented that Mrs Baldwin should occupy a bed-room in the same house where he and his wife were staying at Ramsgate. He should show that the plaintiff was a most affection ate, kind husband, that he confided entirely in the honour of his wife, would not insult her by any un worthy suspicions, and also placed the most entire con fidence in the honour of the defendant, imagining that his age and position were sufficient to justify him in en tertaining that opinion. He felt it right, however, to mention that a circumstance did occur at Ramsgate which suddenly excited the suspicion of the plaintiff, and he in consequence ordered the defendant to quit the house. It appeared, however, that after he had an ex planation with his wife, and received from her the most solemn assurances that there was no ground s for the sus picion he entertained regarding the existence of an im proper intimacy between her and the defendant, the plaintiff, like a kind and confiding husband, as he should prove he had ever shown himself, cast the suspicion from him, and entered on the same terms of friendly in timacy with the defendant that had existed between them before the occurrence to which he had referred. He had before informed them that a petition was pending relating to the election at Totnes, in which the defendant had deen defeated, and about this time it became neces sary that evidence should be obt ained at Totnes relat ing to the election, and as the plaintiff had been brought up to the law, and was, besides , a ver y active and intel ligent man, the defendant requested him to go to Totnes. and do what was necessary in the matter on his behalf. The plaintiff and his wife were at the time staying at Peterborough, and it appeared that the defendant he wrote to them and expressed a desire to meet them, and accor di n gly did go down, and the arrangement was made for the plaintiff to go to Totnes for the purpose hie had mentioned. Mr. Baldwin then left, but would appear that before he did so the plaintiff ob served something in the conduct of his wife and the defendant which again roused the suspicions he had be fore entertained, and he determined to take steps to as certain whether his suspicion was well founded or not. The plaintiff resolved to go to Totnes, as had been ar ranged ; but before his departure he made an arrange ment with one of his clerks that if any letter should come to Peterborough addressed to his wife, in the handwriting of the defendant, they should be transmitted to him. He then left Peterborough, and shortly afterwards he received from his clerk the letter he should read to them, and which could leave no doubt on their minds of the guilt of the defendant. The letter was as follows. It was dated Sunday evening, and bore the postmark April 24 : `! My dearly beloved angel, —I know that what I have decided upon will annoy you and cause many exclamations of ' Ah ! he is Cool ! he does not love me any longer ; he has got some one else But I shall only say, what is the fact, that there is not any ground for such ideas or such suspicions, for I love you dearer than ever ; but I will not jump out of the fryingpan into the fire, which it would be to go down to P. You may be sure he has left his spies and scouts about the station. If it depended on myself alone there is no sacrifice I would not make ; but as I have frequently told you, and that from the first, that I will not do anything (not even to save my life) to com promise my poor sick wife and two darling girls. You must be mad to think of my going to Peterborough. I send a sovereign to pay your passage up. I have not a 5/. note by me, and it is Sunday, and I cannot get one, but I will give you more when we meet. Start by the half-past four o'clock train to-morrow, and I will be at the station to meet you. There can be no danger, as you can say you came up to meet Mrs. Collis. Even if it were not dangerous to go to P. I could not manage ; for the de lay of going there last week has thrown my business in arroar, and while the master's eye is away I find that nothing is done. I have scarcely slept since we met, as, with all my desire to go to bed early, business has kept me up till 1 or 2 in the morning, and I have immensity to do before Wednesday, when my case comes on. This must not be neglected. Do not worry yourself, but come up cool if you love me as dearly and tenderly as Ido you. I do not call it love to compromise yourself and me as well as my family. I call that madness. You see I can reason as coolly as possible, and yet adore you ; but it is that adoration that makes me. Good bye. God bless and pre serve you, with millions of kisses. Mr. Chambers proceeded—This letter left no doubt upon the mind of the plaintiff of the dishonour he had sustained, and he immediately communicated with his friends and the members of his family, and consulted them as to the course that should be adop.tid .e.d.noltt obtain appear that, although Met 4-t o k m in s s o o m n d some cause or other, possession of this letter, y, from she went away from Peterborough, about the time that was appointed, by th e train for London, taking with her only a change of dress, and she did not return until the following day. Further inquiries were then made by the plaintiff, the resu lt of which left no doubt whatever that during the whole of the period his wife and the Ramsgate an adulterous inter defendant were staying 4 course was carried on ffetween them. These Were the facts he should have to lay before them, and he appre. hended that in the result the only question the jury would have to deliberate upon was as the amount of damages th a t oug ht to be paid by the defendant ; and when they considered his position in society, his age, and the deliberate and heartless manner in which he had attacked the honour of the plaintiff, he felt assured they would consider the case one which called for heavy damages. The following witnesses were then examined : The Rev. Stephen Fawcett said, —I am the rector of Eaton Socon, in Bedfordshire, and a magistrate for that county. The plaintiff is my brother-in-law. I have known him about 16 years. Ile was formerly an attorney, practising at Peterborough. He is aboui 38 or 39 years old. I married the plaintiff to his wife on the 6th of August, 1840. She was the daughter of a gentleman named Tomlin, of large fortune, in Northamptonshire, and the owner of Fotheringay Castle. A sum of money was given to the plaintiff upon the marriage, but no settlement was made. Mr. Tomlin bought a place called the 'Vineyard, at Peterborough, where the plain tiff and his wife resided. I used to visit them up to the time of this affair. They appeared very happy, and to be very kind to each other, and if the plaintiff erre d a t all it was on the score f indulgence. Two children were the issue of the marriage. They were both girls ; one is ag ed 12, and the other 10. The Dean of Peter borough and other persons of distinction used to visit them. In the month of March the plaintiff made a communication to me with regard to the conduct of his wife and Mr. Baldwin. He appeared excessively pained and not able to control himself. I consulted other mem bers of the family, and the result of our advice was given to the plaintiff. Mrs. Atkinson was directed by her medical man to live as much near the seaside as possible, and during her absence Mr. Atkinson con tinued in his business at Peterborough. Cross-examined—l saw more of the Tlaintiff 414 wife' for - the first few years - after their maiage than sub sequently. I always considered them to be on very friendly terms. I resided at a distance of 25 miles from Peterborough, but I and my wife generally stayed there, at the house of the plaintiff's father, for more than a month every year, and I was then con stantly in the habit of seeing them. I never heard that the marriage took place against the wishes of the lady's family, but I know there was some misunderstanding about a settlement. The plaintiff suggested something to be introduced into the settlement to which Mr. Tom lin would not accede, and no settlement was con sequently made. This took place about a week before the marriage. I am not aware that the plaintiff was f requ ently away from his wife for a con siderable time, and that he passed a good deal of time in the company of sporting men. I have seen them and in company togethe r . I have s een the out walking lady's father at the plaintiff's house at Peterborough. I do not know that the plaintiff's affairs became embar rassed after he lost the brewery. I have no reason to -was knaont in a stateythingof of the p s o o v r e t, rt b y, ut ee ra rta th i e n r ly, th d e u cln g tra th ry e . ye H ars e 1850, 1851, in and 1852. I heard h 52. Ibelievtetaht Mrs. Atkinsonathestillhasa very comfortable got into a bad state of health after the birth of the second child, and that she went to the seaside, and during the year 1852 I have no doubt that she was for many weeks away by herself. I never dined at the Vineyard when the defendant was present in 1852. At that time he was a new acquaintance. In February, 1852, the de fendant was laid up with a serious illness, and was con fined to his bed in the plaintiff's house for a week or two. I think I have heard the plaintiff say that his wife went into his bedroom to wait upon him during his illness. I have also heard the plaintiff say that the defendant was living for weeks in the house at Ramsgate with his wife when he was not there. It was always arranged that Mr. Baldwin should live with them. *I have heard that he used to send in fish or a joint of meat, or such things, but I never heard that he paid the whole of the expenses of the establishment. I know that the plaintiff received money from the defendant, but I understood that it was pressed upon him by the defendant after he had refused. The money, I understood, was to be invested in the brewery. It was 1001. lam not aware that the de fendant was to receive interest for the money. I re member hearing of the plaintiff having to give up the brewery, and that he requested Mr. Baldwin to get him some public appointment. Re-examined—l heard that the defendant solicited the plaintiff to leave Peterborough and come with his wife to London, where he promised to get him an appointment through the influence of Lord Derby. I never heard that the plaintiff was embarrassed. He had 23,0001. invested in the brewery. He kept an open and a close carriage, and Mrs. Atkinson continually rode out in them. They were visited by all the elite of the neigh bourhood. I never heard of the plaintiff being charged with any unkindness towards his wife. Mrs. Atkinson's father resided close to Ramsgate, at Dane-court, and she used to visit him while she remained there. Mr. James Anderton.—l am a solicitor, of New Bridge-street, London, and was clerk with the plaintiff's father 50 years ago, and I have known him from his childhood. I was present at his marriage. Mrs. At kinson is a lady of considerable personal attractions. They appeared to live on the most affectionate terms. I heard of their desiring to leave Peterborough, as it did not agree with the health of th e lady. There were other reasons, such as disliking the place and the people. Mr. Atkin son took a warm part in politics. In consequence of their wish, I endeavoured to obtain an appointment fur the plaintiff in London. I have seen letters written by the lady to her husband, and they were all couched in most affectionate terms. Some of the letters were written as lately as March last. Cross-examined.—My avocations were in London, and I had not many opportunities of seeing them to gether. Re-examined by Mr. BovlLL.—They appeared on all occasions to be most affectionate, just as I have ,seen you with your wife. (Laughter.) James Hirah—l was coachman to be plaintiff for nearly three years, and was at Dane-court when the plaintiff and his wife went there in 1851. I used to take Mrs. Atkinson to the residence of Mr. Humfrey at that time, and I used to see Mr. Baldwin with her, and he frequently visited at Dane-court after Mr. Atkinson had gone home to Peterborough. I used to take letters from her to Mr. Baldwin, and she told me to be sure not to deliver them to any one else, and I was to bring him back in the pony chaise to Dane-court. Mr. Baldwin was stopping at some clubhouse at Ramsgate at the time. He used to visit at the house of Mr. Humfrey. Cross-examined.—Mr. Baldwin and Mrs. Atkinson used to drive out almost every day at Ramsgate, while Mr. Atkinson was there. He very seldom accompanied them. Sometimes he walked on the pier while Mr. Baldwin arid Mrs. Atkinson was there. James Cummins said,—l was footman to the plaintiff after he returned from Dane-court to Peterborough in 1851. I remember seeing Mr. Baldwin very frequently at the plaintiff's house, One summer evening I was ordered to take the wine and 'dessert upon the lawn. Mr. Atkin son went out to the brewery, and I went into the garden to fetch the glasses, and as I was going past the draw ing-room door I heard a rustling, and Mrs. Atkinson said, " Really, Mr. Baldwin, I saw a cricket; but I have not caught it." (A laugh.) Mrs. Atkinson was stooping down, and Mr. Baldwin looked quite fatigued. (Laughter.) I heard nothing more, except that Mrs. At kinson said she was sorry she had not caught the cricket and that she had disturbed Mr. Baldwin from his sleep. Mr. Baldwin was " wheezing and blowing." (Much laughter.) I could not see the condition of the clothes of either of the parties, as it was nearly dark. I have heard Mr. Baldwin and Mrs. Atkinson kiss one another when, they parted. Cross-examined—Mr. Atkinson was not in the house when this occurred. He was generally absent the greater part of the day, engaged in his business. I had heard the sound of crickets in the room where Mr. Baldwin and Mrs. Atkinson were, and, therefore, I did not think it extraordinary that Mrs. Atkinson should talk about a cricket. I did not tell anybody of my suspicions at the time except the maidservants. (A. laugh.) I did not tell my master that I thought some thing wrong had occurred. The defendant was rather asthmatical and used to wheeze a good deal. (Laugh ter.) Mrs. Atkinson had a silk dress on. I was in the service of the plaintiff about eight months. There was no way to get to the lawn where the dessert had been placed except by going through the drawing-room. Re-examined—Mr. Atkinson came home to luncheon and dinner. He and his wife appeared to be on very affectionate terms. Jane Hogben said—l am the wife of Stephen Hog ben, a boatman at Ramsgate. I was engaged to cook at the house where Mrs. Atkinson was staying, 16, Nelson-crescent, in February last year. I first saw ?Ir. Atkinson, and he fetched his wife fr om another lodging. I saw Mr. Baldwin also there. He came with Mr. Atkinson to look at the lodgi n g . He engaged a bed room for himself near the one occupied by Mrs._ Atkin son. The wished him to ta ke that room. A girl named Susan Perry was a servant in the house at this time. Mr. and Mrs. Atkinson did not come to the house till October. Mr. Baldwin and Mrs. Atkinson appeared to be very familiar with each other. On one occasion I went into the drawing-room, and I saw Mr. Baldwin sitting on a chair, and Mrs. Atkinson was on his knee stroking his head. (A laugh).) I had forgotten to knock at the door before I went in. Another time Mrs. Atkinson was lying on the sofa and Mr. Baldwin was sitting close by her, and I s a w him dra w his hand away from her person. I heard something said about th e servants not knowing their place, which I suppose a lluded to my going into the room w ithout knocking at the door. One m ornin g I g ot u p early to let in the s weep, and as I was going downstairs I saw Mr. Bald win come out of Mrs. Atkinson's bed-room. Ie had on his dressing-gown and a cap, and I am sure he had no trousers on. He went into the drawienngt uito Mdrawing-roomand re mained there a little time, and then w rs . At kinson's bed-room again, and after remaining there a doing the t l bi thought n g tbat short time, he went into his ow n b e d from all I saw Mr. Baldwin w as not d o r was right. I had reason to believe, upon one occasi on while Mr. Atkinson was away , that two persons had slept in her bed, and on the same morningnwn I saw that th e de fendant's bed had b een turned down but not slept in. When Mr. Baldwin was a b sent, the little girl, the eldest daughter, used to sleep with her mamma, but when he was there she slept in a spare room By Mr. Ballantine—l was first s . poken to about this matter in May of the present year. No inquiries were made of me before that time. I had a few words with _ . was a lady, and had kept 15 servants, and I told her I did not care how many servants she had kept. I men tioned nothing of what I had seen her husband. He did not ask me anything about the matter. I was very well aware that it was an improper thing for Mr. Baldwin to come out of Mrs. Atkinson's bed-room. He might not have seen me. There were other servants in the house, and I poiuted out to one of them that Mr. Baldwin's bed had not bee.o slept in. Mr. Atkinson was not very often at the house with his wife. Mr. Baldwin was constantly left there with Mrs. Atkinson. Re-examined--After these things occurred I noticed a difference in the conduct of Mr. and Mrs. Atkinson to- wards each other. Frances Smith saia —I a 1852 I was servant at a house on Royal•terrace, itanisgate, where the plaintiff and his wife had apartments. Mr. Baldwin also lodged there. There was a sofa in the (lining-room, at the back of foldin g doors which opened to a bed - room. While I was in this bed-room upon one occasion, when Mr. Baldwin and Mrs. Atkinson had returned ffroma party, I heard some thi ng t a k e p l ace i n the adjoining room. There was a dreadful noise, and I thought the folding doors would be forced m, and I went down stairs and told my fellow -servants I was sure that some thing wrong was going on. There was no one in the dining-room at the time but Mrs. Atkinson and the defendant. The folding doors shook violently, as though the sofa was pressed against them. I have frequently seen Mrs. Atkinson and Mr. Baldwin kiss one another, and I have seen them sitting together on a sofa. Cross-examined—They had been to a ball on the night I have mentioned. Mrs. Atkinson and Mr. Baldwin had been staying in the house about- a vreek - atthe time. I was in Mr. Baldwin's bedroom when I heard the fold ing doors shake. Mr. Atkinson did not come down until about a fortnight before they all left the apartments. no lady friend or relation of Mrs. Atkinson visited her while she was stopping at the house in the Royal-ter, race. Mr. Baldwin and Mrs. Atkinson used to take their meals and walk out together. I don't know where they went to. After Mr. Atkinson came home Mr. Baldwin used to go to sleep at his club. There was not accommodation for both the gentlemen at the house. I said nothing to Mr. Atkinson about what I had seen, and I did not tell anybody until last May, when I was examined by the attorney for Mr. Atkin son. Mrs. Atkinson's children were staying with her. The eldest child appeared about 11 years old. I never observed that Mrs. Atkinson appeared to be in bad health. Charlotte Philpott said—l lived at 16, Nelson-cres cent, Ramsgate, at the time Mr. and Mrs. Atkinson, Mr. Baldwin, and the children were staying there. My bedroom was under that occupied by Mrs. Atkinson, and Mr. Baldwin occupied one near it. Upon one oc casion I heard Mr. Baldwin say to Mrs. Atkinson that it would better for her to come to his bedroom than for him to go to hers, as he made such a noise in opening the door, and that it also made him cough, besides which " Charlotte" slept in the room underneath, and she could hear all that took place. After this Mrs. Atkinson told me not to be alarmed if I heard a noise in the night, as Mr. Baldwin frequently went to the watercloset. I have seen Mrs. Atkinson sitting on Mr. Baldwin's knee, with his arm round her waist. Another time I was taking up the tea when Mrs. Atkinson came out of her room with her hair hanging about her face, and she appeared very excited. Mr. Baldwin was in the room at the time. On the occasion of the D u k e o f Wel- lington's funeral Mrs. Atkinson went to town, and when she returned she was angry, and said she had missed Mr. Baldwin at the station, and she was afraid some thing had happened to him. She also said, that if she lost him she should lose the best friend she ever had. Mr. Baldwin came home soon afterwards. Mr. Atkin son came down while Mr. Baldwin was there, and there was a quarrel. Mr. Baldwin went out, and Mrs. Atkin son sent me after him, and I found him on the pier, and, at her request, I told him to come to see her, and that she had told me to say she should not be happy till she had seen him. After this Mr. and Mrs. Atkinson ap peared to be reconciled to each other. Cross-examined--Mr. Atkinson was quite aware that Mr. Baldwin was staying in the house with his wife. Mr. Baldwin and Mrs. Atkinson never " minced," but used to talk quite loud, and I could hear every word they said. I did not put my ear to the keyhole ; it was not at all necessary that I should do so, as I could hear everything without. He slept in the house with Mr. Atkinson's knowledge for several days. The quarrel took place on the Wednesday, and Mr. Atkinson inquired of me if I knew of anything improper between Airs. Atkinson and Mr. Baldwin, and I said 1 did not. My reason for telling this falsehood was, that I knew Mr. Baldwin was going away, and I did not like to say anything against Mrs. Atkinson. I said nothing when Mr. Baldwin came back. I told the truth to the attor- ney, because I knew I should be put on my oath. At the time of the quarrel Mrs. Atkinson said that her hushand had been endeavouring to take her character away, and she wanted to pack up her things and go home to her father. When she said this I (lid not tell her what I had heard take place between her and Mr Bald win. Re-examined—l never saw anything improper take place between Mr. Baldwin and Mrs. Atkinson after the quarrel. Mr. Atkinson appeared to be satisfied that nothing wrong had taken place. By Mr. Ballantine—After all this had happened Mr. Baldwin and Mrs. Atkinson went up to London together. Susan Perry—l lived as servant in Nelson-cres cent, while Mr. Baldwin and Mrs. Atkinson lived there. One evening Mr. Baldwin came in about five o'clock, and Mrs. Atkinson said to him, "MY dear, how late you are ; have you had your dinner ?" After this Mrs. Atkinson told me not to be alarmed if I heard any one walking about in the night, as Mr. Baldwin was in the habit of getting up at night to go to the water-closet. I frequently observed, while Mr. Atkinson was away, the appearance of two persons having slept in the bed of Mrs. Atkinson, and that Mr. Baldwin's had not been slept in. Several mornings, when I was engaged in sweeping the drawingroom, Mr. Baldwin has come in with nothing but his dressing-gown on, and when I went out I saw that Mrs. Atkinson's bed room door was ajar. I have also seen Mr. Baldwin lying upon the sofa, and Mrs. Atkinson sitting by him with her dress turned up. I also once saw Mr. Baldwin kiss Mrs. Atkinson just before she was going to bed. I men tioned all these things to the other servants. Cross-examined—Mr. Baldwin had no breakfast at home, and he was generally at his club the greater part of the day. In the evening he and Mrs. Atkinson used to walk out together, and they seemed very familiar to gether. I have never seen Mr. Baldwin kiss Mrs. At kinson when her husband was present. Nobody made any inquiries of me as to what Thad seen until last March. Re-examined—On the nights when Mr. Atkinson slept with his wife I did not see Mr, Baldwin so early the fol lowing morning. Dr. Ilarlinesaid—l am a physician, and I was con sulted with regard to the health of Mrs. Atkinson, and it was by my advice she went to the sea-side, as I con sidered the air of Peterborough very detrimental to her, and that she could not recover while she remained there. By Mr. Serjeant Shee—Her case was an obstinate one, but was not dangerous. There was a general de rangement of the system. By Mr. Chambers—Her disease was not of a character to cast any imputation upon her husband. Mr. Robert Clark—l was clerk to the plaintiff at his brewery. At the latter end of April last the plaintiff left Peterborough to go to Totnes, and by his direction I detained the letter now produced, which I sent to the plaintiff. Mr. F. W. Smith, a clerk in the banking house of Sir Claude Scott and Co., where Mr. Baldwin kept an account proved that the letters produced were in the handwriting of the defendant. The letter referred to in the opening address of the learned counsel was then put in and read. Mr. C. Smith—On the 25th of April I was station master at Peterborough, and in the afternoon of that day Mrs. Atkinson carne to the station and took ticket for London. a the following day. She returned t o P eter b orough on - - Mr. Keen, a solicitor of London deposed that Mr. Baldwin was at one time member for Totnes, and was a gentleman of position and station in the world. Mr. Bryett, a solicitor of Totnes, deposed that in April of the present year Mr. Atkinson was in that town on Mr. Baldwin's behalf, in reference to the election petition that was at that time going on against the re turn of Mr. Mills. This Closed the case for the plaintiff. Mr. Serjeant Shee then made a most eloquent and powerful address to the jury on behalf of the defendant. He said that during a now somewhat lengthened expe rience at the bar, he had never listened to or been con cerned in a case of this description which had created greater feelings of shame and sorrow in his mind than the present one. They had heard a great deal said about the plaintiff and the defendant, and it appeared to be forgotten that there was another person whose dearest interests were at stake in this inquiry, namely, the un happy young lady, the wife of the plaintiff, to whom the issue involved in th e i nqu i r y was one o f th e most fearful _ character. To his client, a man bordering on theau d f gt u o 70, married, and w ith a grown u p f a mily, and h hitherto enjoyed an un sulli e d reputation, he need not say the issue was a l m ost equ a lly fearful, and he must say that in all his experience he bad never known an attempt to be made to establish guilt of this description upon such evidence as had been adduced that day. The defendant could not but feel that having such preferred against him was aheav w y er c e a felt I() 'be of more were other considerations which bauethathregree whether counsel, importance to him as a man of honour, muu and which must come home to the heart ff o eu f t e e v a ery him m'ore than his own jury, or judge, interest— name lwy,h which h e of the fatal hazard, called a dreadful issue involved to the The result happy lady. forth to the trial, to her was whether res she was to go world branded as an adultsess ; w hether e t a h l e th, once happy Mary Tomlin , th e daughter ofa m and beloved by all w ho knewt her, s h o uld be thus branded contempt and consigned to an d disgrace—to a fate far worse than death itself. He did not believe, however, that when the jury had heard the evidence he should lay before them they would return a verdict which would have such a result, and he would at once say that, ac cording to his instructions, the only object the plaintiff had in view was to obtain money from the defendant on any terms, and that to carry out that object he had not scrupled to expose to temptation her whom he had sworn to cherish and to protect. The unfortu nate lady herself could not be called to speak to the treatment and conduct she had experienced at the hands of her husband, but he should be in a position, by other testimony, to prove to the satisfaction of the jury what, the nature of that conduct had been ; and if they should think that guilt had been proved, he was sure they would at the same time be satisfied that the plaintiff himself had been the sole cause of that guilt, and that he was not entitled to the slightest consideration at their hands. He would state to them what were the actual circumstances under which the plaintiff and his wife be came conpected. Miss Tomlin was, as he was in structed, a beautiful young woman, the daught er o f a man of fortune, b roug h t up in the enjoyment of every luxury and comfort, and who, undoubtedly, from her position, was entitled to entertain the most brilliant ex pectations. She met the plaintiff at a public ball, and at their second Ineetinn- he proposed marriage. Her lather, her brothers, and every member of her family were averse to it —they offered the most strenuous oppo• sition to it ; but at last, y;eiding to the impression that the affections of the young iady xere fixed upon the plaintiff, and out of regard to her feelings, her father reluctantly consented to the marriage. The plaintiff had made some proposals with regard to a settlement upon his wife, but he could not carry them out, and the consequence was that Miss Toinlin's father declined to be a party to any settlement, and none was consequently inade. Tomlin, however, from his circumstances, was enabled to give them material assistance, and, upon the marriage taking place, he permitted the plaintiff and his wife to have possession of a handsome residence and g rounds called the Vineyard, at Peterborough, which h ad been let for 3501. a-year, but which lie permitted the plaintiff to enjoy the use of for the nominal sum of ss. a-year. He should show them that very shortly after the mar riage, notwithstanding the evidence they had heard to the contrary, the plaintiff had treated his wife in the most cruel and unmanly manner. He left her for long periods, he never hardly was seen out with her, and he should show that, in consequence of a malady which followed the birth of the second child, the unhappy lady was no longer an object to gratify his passion, and that he resorted to every meana to get rid of her. The learned serjeaallienreferred to the introchiction to the defend ant, and said he should show that the plaintiff had en deavoured to obtain money from him, and that there was no doubt that he had deliberately permitted his wife to be with the defendant under the circumstances that had appeared in evidence, for weeks and months to gether, in the hope that she would be tempted aid that she would fall, and that through her ruin he might ob tain money from the defendant. Did the jury ever hear of any husband who had the slightest regard for his own honour or that of his wife permitting a person who was almost a stranger to have entirely unrestricted intercourse with her at an idle watering place ? Would any man who entertained the slightest feeling of honour permit such a proceeding ? He should show them that the father of the young lady remonstrated with the plaintiff in indignant terms upon his conduct in permitting a stranger to be dangling after his wife, and stated what the opinion of the world was likely to be respecting it, and he should prove the offensive, disgusting, and un manly replies that the plaintiff made to him when he did so. He should likewise show by the plaintiff's own letters that at the time when he was represented to be in good circumstances, he was in an almost hopeless state of embarrassment and difficulty, and that he was earnestly supplicating Mr. Baldwin to procure him some appoint ment. The learned sergeant then read several let ters which he said he should put in evidence, and was about to read some written by the wife of the plaintiff to her mother. Mr. Chambers, however, objected to any letters writ ten by the plaintiff's wife being put in as evidence, and he contended that such letters were inadmissable. The Chief Baron said, that if the objection was pressed he must decide that the letters were not legal evidence. Serjeant Shee said, he regretted he was not allowed by the rules of evidence to let the unhappy lady, by her letters, tell her own tale of the treatment she had ex perienced at the hands of her husband. He wished the jury to know the whole truth, but he had no doubt that the other evidence he should lay before the jury would amply show what had been the nature of the conduct and the proceedings of the plaintiff. He then proceeded to argue that the evidence that had been adduced was totally insufficient to make out a case of guilt; and in commenting upon the testimony that had been given he said that not one of the w it nesses appeare d to have said a word with re gard to the circumstances which they represented they had seen until long afterwards; and he said that a man who was capable of acting as the plaintiff was proved to have done in this transaction might be well supposed not to be over scrupulous in gettinc , up a ease likely to further his own views and what he con sidered to be his interest. The learned serjeant then referred to the letter of the defendant of the 24th of April, and said it had been truly observed by a late learned judge that "an old fool was the worst of fools ;" and he said that the probability was that the defendant, by being forced into the society of a beautiful young woman for so long a time, might have been •' warmed up" to entertain a sort of affection for her, which in duced hint to write such a letter as this ; but he sub mitted that it was by no means a positive proof of guilt, and that, taking into consideration that a conclusion ad er:.,o to the defendant would involve the unhappy wife of the plaintiff in the same ruin, they ought to pause before they came to a decision which would have that eject, and they ought not so to decide but upon OR most positive and conclusive testimony. At 7 o'clock the further proceedings in the case were postponed. EA VAI3 INTELLTGEAVE. PORTSMOUTH, AUGUST 4.
