EDWARD clinrmAN v. StR GREGORY PAGE TURNER. ~The Plaintiff is an iron.fnorider,, No.. 25r New Compton -street, Soho ; the Defendant is an opulent. Bironet, Member for. the town of:fhirsk, in York. shire. The latis °I . the case are shortly these:— At. the . seat. of the Defendant, called Battlestone- Park, near Woburn, in Bedfordsltire, a small bridge, whiehconne4reiwsidistilnet parts of the. estate, had Become impassable.. Lady, Page Turner consulted . with. the Rev. Edmund Cartwright, whose inge nuityis well .known, on, the best means, not oily of restoring the eutrimunication, but of embellishing this part of thcgrounds. Mr. Cartwright, in con sequence of this application, recommended an iron bridge, and :proposed, Mr. Chapman, the preient as a ptoper person to eonstrna it. Lady Turner cuinciJed. with the opinion of Gentle man : she consequently gave orders to .the Plaintiff torepate , the bridge; which were ponattally ext_ owed, and: the tnareiials for that purpose were sent dawn to Leighton Buzzard, adjacent to the estate, from the wharf of the Paddington Canal. Tito question in this cause, therefore, wax, whether this order of L.dy Page Turner was so recognized by her husband, as to render him liable to the pay. weir I Messrs. Paßtta and I.t.rtLlOP.t.tr,. on the pare of the Plaintiff, stated, at considerable length., .the farts of this, case. They were extremely sorry that the indiscretion of the Defendant had forced the 'Plaintiff into a public Court, where he must en. avoidably expose those domestic differences which were so disreputable to the partici. They ditL not Mean to concer!, In rape& to the point Of j.. w,. that the Orders tlf a married Woman are boding upon her: husband; unless they were given fur necessaries, : and to an extent suited to the de gree and rank of her leu4band. It would be recul:. kited that Sia VRANCTS W3I.KINS was a Judge of the Court of king's Bench, and, : . as the custom then .afterwards descended rd the ear. ills Lady had.ordered,a Petticoat decorated with a gold fringe, and a side-saddle with the same ornament the amount of these was 04.. and the article*. not being found inconsistent, with the degree of that IrrOtest.ional Gentleman, he was made sub,. ject to the .eharge., 'Yhe Learned Counsel men tinned this case, to spew the extent to which 'the principle was carried, but they did not mean .to tivph , it to. the construdion of brid g e s f or t h e , provement of iiiiiuresgtie scenery * , Ti e who!: of the works. were cond43ed . Wth the knowledge of site Defendant ; a large part of the. r e nter i a i s were conveyed to the premises by his own tearnt, so that Sir Gregorf ,was nude acquainted with the progress Yid the business, And if hr 'disapproved of its corn. pletion, it was his duty to have given notice to the Defen , lttnt,, This notice would . have. prevented the .e.xeC4trion oldie order ; bac 111 v ing I,sglecle4 to give Albeit notice, lie adopted it as' his own, and has ren. ti c re: ( l himself liable.to the claint of the Plaintiff: The Rev. Edmund Cartwright was then called, He sOri, that, in the summer of tBo3, he took an evening's, walk with his Wife to the scat of the Defendant,. which 'W7ss two miles di s ta n t from his own res id ence at Woburn, The Defendant was absent, but the servants cOnduaed them to Lady p age 'r u s tler , ,who was raking tea,in the, pleasoie. grounds. • They joined her, and in a short time af. terwards SirGregury came to them, He . was in a state of the most violent and condoned hinVself towards his Lady in ir muriner extremely. tinbe,eoming. Lady t urt!i:t behaved with great Rao. deration :anki propriety, and its " a soft answer, turnoff awaywrdth," his furious distiositiOn was appeased, ,and, during the rest of the evening, per. fed tranquillity 11/43 restored. The onversation then turned on the sul\jet of the bridge, when malty innoN:nt jests were exchanged regarding it. The Detemiant said,. 44 I have an iron rod over you, my 1„(dy, so, 14!:/o, c.)Fe how you belvive yoUrself ; but 1 yuu will order no more htirilies,;!! to which Lady 'Turner convented, it he . would give her a kandsontotdilirigi, Mir, ER1K1N8....... 4 1 The Gentlemen of tbe Jury will obsesve, that,this wal purely irothicAls he had given her a handsome railing already, if the evi. deuce of this svitnebs be corrett." Thr irtneir iir a Sir Gregnly then said, he was g oing to raise a Regiment f o r hi s own honour. The Witness - expressed Eurprize at this , declaration, and' dolt!, you will, - Sir, have ho'nour enough,-if you defend this bridge with inure suc cess than 13ntopatte was ;ttiflea at Lodi, at the head of your own Regiment.

Several othei . .wittiessec were then railed, to rtue the weight, the value, a n t i the drlivery. Mr. Easeme, on behalf of the Defendant, said, was nut_, less morti fi ed than his Learned Friend, that a. metier involvieg .delicate quese tions e of a domestic nature should be made the subj.:a of public investigation. It was, happily, • however, not an affair in which the ,honnur of the wife% of the Defendant was. concerned in the nicest point effeding e female reputation ; but it was a case merely of false ta.te ; • and to prevent the effeils of unbounded extravagance it was subtnitted to an English Jury. His Cll. ent had said, that it ehe:decisione Were. refer. red to a Jury of married' men, he had no dOblit the determination would he' in his favotire and' the Learned Counsel was' bold to assert,. that this was no false prophecy. M r : P ARKE an d he Were perfealy agreed on the point of law, that the case of Sir Francis Witkins, whom .he would' calleS'ir Francis Wronghead (from the absurdity of his descent front . the Bench to the ..Bet), - was. wholly inapplicable to the present, inasmuch as 'a gold fringe to a petticoat had not the smallest eonnec. 'tine with an Iran bridge, and the same 'embellish. men' to a side.saddle was well adapted to the lady of Sir Francis (whether Wilkins or Wiongheed), who could not be supposed 'to ride astride for the gratification of publlc curiosity: "Ns objection had been taken against the amount of the' for I two reasons • first' because he did not doubt but , I the Plaintiff' was a fair tradesman ; and secondly, and ptincipaliy, becauie he' was confident the De. fondant would not be called upon to discharge it.— With the first %vitae:et (the Rev. Edomod Cart.' eiVright) he (Mr: ER,K NE)' was perselnally acqeainte •ed ; he knew him to he one t 4 the Most ingenious Artists in this Country, who, under a Royal Parent, had introduced into the woolleo,l he machinery which had hithettte beenconlined to the cotton, manulattory; • but his talents, whatever they might be, would . he of no advantage on the preseot 'occasion so the Plaintiff, for he had estehlished no recognition LA' the Contra il op •the part of, the Defendant. The eon ve t satien SileGree,ory 'before • this 'Roe. C,ln. Oman, at Baulestone, was neither respeilful.orele. ct t ; it Would have been 'much more wise if the Defendant had' reserved the agitation of his passions for a curtain leilure, when they might have been proptely dirated ; but neither the serious• nor the : Omit. part of this drama amounted to any adoption of the orders given by her Ladyship ; and unless such an acknowledgment of responsibility could he hewn, the Plaintiff would not be -entitled to the verdict of the Jury. . Cooke, the gardener, HayleY, the butler, and Upsdele, the surveyor, of Sir G:rgory, were then, called for the: defence; and Mr. PARKE Haying spoken in reply, Lord Eeetteuottotecei summed up the evidme. " The order is ev Wendy oue by which the Defend. ant was not' eriginally liable. A wife may render ter healed responsible for the necessity articles of houtekeeping ; but to construes buildings, and throw bridges over his weter.courses, h not at all, within her province. The simple inquiry on which fou have to exercise your judgment is this : if after therirder wet given to the Plaintiff, by the wile, the Defendant adopted - it ? and the determi. nation of, depieds on the conversation with Mr. Cartwright.
