S he , ' . stated that she had known the Abbe since 1846 ; that he volunteered his services as a friend to assist in arranging her affairs, in which he assumed to take an interest, say ing that though he had no money himself he had friends who could advance money, so that she might gain time to arrange with her creditors. She accepted his friendly offices, and in the year 1846 or 1847 she signed three documents presented to her by him for signature, one of which was for 25,0001., and another for 60,000 f., and she believed they were acknowledgments that she had received the said sums from him. She said the documents were all drawn up by the Abbe, and that the reason why she signed them was that he told her the Archbishop of Paris required him to discontinue his visits at her house, and that if she signed the documents he would show them to the Archbishop, and he would then be satisfied. She said she signed the documents on that representa tion, but she had never received any consideration for either of them. She said she might have owed the Abbe from 2,000 f. to 3,000 f. at that time, but not more, and that he never advanced the 25,000 E mentioned. What ever advances the Abbe might have made in the years 1845-6-7, they were reimbursed wholly, or in the greater part, by the sale of jewels and other effects, and by moneys received by him on her account. In Sept., 1847, she believed she owed the Abbe a balance of 1,0151., but she gave him an order to receive the amount of her quarter's allowance, amounting to 1,2501., which she be lieved he received, thus making him her debtor for 235 f. She stated that she was not now indebted to the Abbe in any sum of money. The Abbe soon afterwards told the deponent that he had shown the documents to the Archbishop, and that he was satisfied ; and that, as he bad no further use for them, he would throw them into the fire, which whereupon he appeared to do. She said the Abbe had never made any personal claim upon her for the 25,000 f., or for any other sum. She said she was first cousin to the Emperor Napo leon 111. She was then interrogated about a variety of transactions, and in the course of her answers admitted in 1846 the plaintiff had paid 1,800 francs to M. Tisse ron to redeem her furniture, and in 1845 he advanced 2,500 hams to redeem certain of her effects from the Monte de Pietie. She stated that in 1845 she was ar rested at the suit of a jeweller, and confined in the go vernor's room at the prison of Clichy ; that she believed she was removed to the Maison de Sante, Rue de Omit lot, through the instrumentality of the Abbe, and that he paid 300 francs for her maintenance there. In the year 1846 she said she was condemned by the Court of Versailles to pay 1,000 francs and costs, and that the Abbe then paid about 900 francs on her account. She said the Abbe took apartments for her in his own name, and paid 500 francs for the rent ; and in the year 1847 he paid a further sum of 450 francs for apartments and wages. She said she did not know that the Abbe had deposited any securities with Tisseron, and that he did not give her a share in any mine. He did not bring her •any account in the year 1847 ; nor did she thereupon give him any document whereby she acknowledged her self to owe him the sum of 25,000 francs, or any sum ; but she did sign a document presented to her by the Abbe acknowledging a debt of 25,000 francs, in order to its being produced to the Archbishop, and it was pos sible that the paper marked "A" (the document now in question) might be a copy of such document. She de nied that she ever owed the Abbe at one time more than 3,000 francs; and she said that all that was due to him had been paid. The Emperor Napoleon had paid certain debts of hors, accordirg to a list furnished to him, but could not tell the particulars, as the payments were not made through her ; she believed the Abbe had not been paid what he claimed, but she knew not why, unless it was that he had no claim upon her. Mr. Keating then summed up the defendant's evi dence, and commented at length upon all the facts of the case as proved on both sides. He contended that the Car dinal had no meant, of testing the accuracy of the vouch ers produced by the plaintiff, and he set against them the depositions of Madame Wyse, who declared that nothing was due to the plaintiff. The statement of the Cardinal as to the deposit of the document was entirely contra. dictory to that made by the Abbe, and he trusted that the jury would believe that a man of the Cardinal's cha racter would not tell an untruth. Mr. Sergeant Pigott, in his reply, said it was not de nied that the Cardinal had had the document, nor could it be doubted that he could get it by merely writing a note to Mr. Wyse. The plaintiff's claim was said to be answered by the deposition of a worthless Princess, who said she had signed a false document in order to deceive the Archbishop. The Cardinal had told the plaintiff he bad better take his papers back to Paris. That showed they were in his hands I He contended the evidence showed that the Cardinal had detained the document, which, acording to the laws of every creed, class, and country, ought to have been given back. The plaintiff's claim was well founded, and, though it was only a debt of honour, it had one advantage, that it was not barred by the statute of limitations, and though the Emperor might not pay it, the plaintiff might some day obtain payment from the children, to whose honour it was re. ferred as a sacred debt. Mr. Justice Crowder, in summing up the evidence, said the questions for the jury were, whether the de fendant detained the document, and if so, what damages the plaintiff was entitled to recover for the detention. His lordship contrasted the evidence given by the plain tiff as to the advances made with the depositions made by Madame Wyse, in which she denied that she was in deb':,ed as alleged. It did not very satiefactorilyappear how the plaintiff came to advance Madame Wyse so much money, but still the jury ought to look upon her denial with great caution when they found that she had ad mitted that she bad signed the document, but sought to avoid it by saying that she signed it for the purpose of deceiving the Archbishop of Paris. His lordship then went through the particulars of the case with great mi nuteness, contrasting the evidence of the plaintiff with that given by the defendant. The paper was last seen in the possession of Mr. Wyse in December, 1847, and the probability was that it was not destroyed. But the question now was, whether it was detained by Cardinal Wiseman ; and if so, what damages the plaintiff was entitled to for its detention. The measure of da mages was the value of the document, and this the jury must assess according to their opinion of the probability of the debt being paid if it were given up. The jury then retired to consider their verdict, and on their return into court found for the plaintiff--damages 5001. Mr. Seating said that as it was proved that the docu ment was last seen in the hands of Mr. Wyse in Dec., 1847, he hoped his Lordship would stay execution, in order that the defendant might communicate with Mr. Wyse to see if the paper could be procured. Mr. Huddleston said the aetion was commenced in December last, and there had been plenty of time to communicate with Mr. Wyse at Athens. Mr. Justice Crowder thought the application an un usual one, but his Lordship ultimately stayed execution till after the 4th day of Easter Term (this day fortnight). RAILWAY TRAFFIC .RETURNS.
