WALL V. WALL AND VIT ATT.—AN ILL-AIIIIOETIM W.AARLAOI
Dr. Spinks Mr. Jojoe, end Mr. Seat* appeared for the
petitioner
nt ; Dr. Phillunore, Q.C., and Dr. Tristnun for the
the petitioner, Mr. William Ellis Wall, the eon of the
Bay. W. E. Wall, a clergyman in the country, came to town
in 1852 to prosecute his studies for the medial profession
at King's College. He soon afterwards became acquainted with
the respondent, then Anne Coleman, alias Clarke, a person
in a much lower rank of life, and on the 11th of June he
married her at St. larylebone Church in such haste that
the bride's wedding garments had to be made afterwards.
He resided with her at lodgings in University-street, Totten-
hams:ourt.road, till the month of November, 1858,
when a separation took place on account, as he
alleged, of her misconduct. .11e made her, however,
an allowance of 2/. per week. She went to reside with an
acquaintance of hers at Bow, named Matthews, and this
person's huaband had business relations with one Wyatt,
who was at that time in practice as an attorney. Matthews
atom 'brought him to his house, and he became very inti-
mate with the respondent. They soon afterwards began to
cohabit together.
For the defence a witness was called to show that Mr.
Wall was accustomed, after the separation, to frequent a
casino in Newman-street, and to consort with prostitutes,
but she wholly failed to substantiate the plea.
The jury, therefore, found for the husband, and—
The court made trfth COAL

Yesterday morning about 4 o'clock a fire broke
out at the mansion known as Campden House, the prourty
of Mr. W. F. Woolley, iu the Camen Honse-road, Ken-
sington. The building in qn ,ss was of considerable
1 and contained thirty elegantly furnished rooms,
and the private theatre, in which the
amateur artists used to perform for charitable
objects. The building) was of great antiquity, having been
erected, it is stated, u far beck es the reign of Queen
nizabeth. Adjoining this mansion was another almost as
large, termed the Elms, belonging to Mr. Augustus Leopold
Egg, A.K.A., who at the present time is away In Africa on
Winces. This building, as will be seem below, has also been
considerably damaged. The discovery was made by a
peline-constable, who proceeded to arouse the inmates, the
whole of whom succeeded in escaping in safety.
ili less than five minutes afterwards the flames
appeared to have obtained the possession of nearly 20 of tb
moms se well as the theatre, and owin to the strong wind
blowing at the time, it seemed impossible to prevent the
conflagration from extending to Mr. Egg's prennses. The
most vigorous attempts were therefore made by the police
and ethers to remove the furniture from the endangered
building, and some thousand pounds worth of books,
pietism, and furniture, were carried out and deposited
upon the lawn. Although the various articles were not

leureser, emoseded in cutting off the further extension of
the flames in the direction al the" Elms," but the main body
of Isms in Campaign House could not be extin•
gelded for several hours, and not until the building and
ait oulainad were reduced to ruins. The total loss must

mod costly descriptios, and some of the picture* destroyed
wen worth 1,0001. each. As to the origin of the fire, not
the least information could be obtained. It appears that
when the family and the servants retired to bed. not PO
