ROUSE OF LORDS.
Present :—Tbe Lord Chancellor, Lord Brougham, Lord Campbell, aril
other Peers.
Maa. Dawson s nicotine BiLt.—At four o'clock Mr.
Austin appeared at the bar, about to open the case for this
bill.
Lord Campbell, addressing the house, said that before the
learned counsel opened the case, he wished to state to the
hese • difficulty which struck him. Their r
ipe were
about going into a long inquiry without any proct of a
beneficial result ; for it was his clear opinion that the bill
could not be allowed to pan ; and if that west* be the result,
why should the house waste time in examining witnesses at
the bar ? Ile bad read the bill with great attention. It
appeared that the marriage which was sought to be dis.nived
took place in 1833, after which the parties cohabited and had
ttLogerhuiludilnforTdliveoanwe ItatAwtittherey"se
amistamteeditiyn,tahnedbioltlha..e:
ill- usage on the pert of the husband. But this house never
granted a divorce on the wile's petition for adultery, and
here cohabitation followed otter adultery, and might be re-
sumed alter divorce granted. Divorce was granted in Mrs.
Addison's ease, in Mrs. Turton's case, and, later again, in
llattersby's case ; but these cases had other irgredients, as
incest on the part of the husband in the two first, sod in the
last there was, besides adultery and most atrocious ill-usage,
a conviction tor bigamy and felony airainst the husband, fol-
lowed by a sentence of transportation, so that it was hardly
possible the wife could ever again be brought to cohabit
with him. But hereprobably obtain
Mr. Dawson may p
pardon of his wife and resume cohabitation with her.
Lord Brought= said his noble and learned friend was
quite right ir. eosin wing to tat: house the difficulties which
he felt in this case. But the house did not
case, heel such diffi-
1832,
culties in some of the can s. In ars. Dloffit's iu
Lord Eldon came down to the house and the doctrine laid
down by him seemed to go so Ur as 'to entitle a wife to a
divorce mall cases in which thc husband was deemed en-
titled to it. lie, himself, could not concur in that doctrine.
Here it appeared that there IVY adultery and cruelty, so as
to make it he
be for those parties to live together ever
aga:n, and the best way would be to hear the case.
The Lord Chancellor agreed that the better course now
would be to hear the evidence.
Lord Campbell said he readily acquiesced in what his
noble and learned friends proposed, although he was of
opinion that if they had read the bill they would see that it
Gould not pass. lie could not, therefore, see what was the
' use in taking the evidence.
Mr. Austin then stated the case for tbe bils 11. M
rs.ye
rs.
Dawson was married in 1833. She was then only
age, although Mr. Dawson, in stetting the license, swore she
was 19. She was the daughter of Mr. Dusty, • wealthy
manufacturer en Mauchester or Salford. She knew a Mir
Dawson, sister of Mr. Dawson. who, by reason of his sister's
visits, became acquainted with Mr. Owsey's family. They
were married, without the lady's father's tangent, at the
parish church of Eccles, in Lancashire. Mr. Dawson,bsides
falsifying her age in obtaining the license, swore also that
she had her brother's consent to the marriage.
wherewith
'hod no brother. There was issue of the marriage a daddindis
now 14, and a son about 12 years of age. Within a fortnight
after the marriage Mr. Dawson began to indulge in the
vilest practices, bad language to his wife, orunkenness, said II
he behaved so brutally to her at the time of the birth al
the second child (in 1836) that she was obliged to letvs
him, and never, cohabited with him after. la 1844 she ,
was residing in Bayswater, having come up to London for
her daughter's education, when Kr. Dawson, with four of
his companions, assailed the house, tenet his wife and
children out, sod disposed of the furniture and property. She
then went to her father's, and there discovered that her bras
band had been living in adultery in Lancashire and also ed il
Gravesend, in Kent, for several yaw (from 1837). Pro-
ceedings were then instituted by her for a divorce in the I
ecclesiastical courts, which was obtained in due time. The
learned counsel then referred to the eases in which wine
obtained divorcee (all of which are mentioned in Mr. Meal
queen's book), se Mrs. Aunty's case in 1801, upon whisk
Lord Thurlow made a memorable speech, changing We
opinion in favour of granting divorces to women as to I
men. Then Mrs. Touches Cale in 1805, in whisk 1
there was no other ingredient besides adultery e 4 1
the husband. The case of Mrs. Moffat, before refened ,
to, followed in 1832, upon which Lord Eldon declared
his opinion in favour of the divorce. That opinion
was opposed by Lord Brougham (then Lord Chancellor); '
but his lordship admitted that he was not prepared to say
that other ingredients beahles incest might not be sufficient
grounds for granting divorce to a wite. lie next referred
to Mrs. Battenbtee case in 1840, in which there was no
charge of incest against the husband, but there was adultery
over and env again ; there was no cruelty, but there was
bigamy, with a conviction for it, and a sentence of trans-
portation. The present car, wanted only this last feature.
Lord Wynford was at first opposed to the bill, but on hearing
the evidence he consented to the 'second reading. Ile next
referred to a passage in the third volume of Lord Brougluies
speeches to show that a change had been wrought in his
opinior. in favour of a divorce to a wife as to a husband upon
the same grounds.
Lord Brougham said his difficulty always was this,—that a
wife will Rot commit adultery for the purpose of having a
divorce from her husband ; husbands will, and there will be
no end to applications to the house.
Some witnesses were then examined by Mr. Rowe, as to
the service of the bill on Mr. Dawson, and also as to the
marriage of Mr. and Mrs. Dawson at Eccles in Lancashire,in
1833. The examination of the other witnesses was adjourned
to Thursday. -----

COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH.
COMMIT V. lII:DSON.—FALBI3 IMPILISONMENT.hia
was an action brought by the plaintiff, in fornsk pauperis,
against the keeper of the Queen's Bench prison for false im-
prisonment, to which the ch fchilunt pleaded a justification.
it wilt be remembered that the plaintiff was removed from
the Fleet prison under an attachment from the Rolls Court
in 1840, whereupon he obtained a writ of habeas corpus, and
on being brought before Mr. Baron Parke, that learned
judge thought the return to the writ to be insufficient, and
would have discharged the plaintiff, tut for an alteration
was
which was subsequently made in the return, when he
remmded to prison. The jury found a verdict for the de •
fendant. ;Itlr.Cobbett, who was brought from the Queen's pri-
son oa a writ of habeas corpus, now moved for a rule for a new
trial, on the ground that the amended return was a fabrica-
tion, the original document containing the full commitment,
to which nothing could properly have been added ; end the
b-srned judge by whom the cause was tried, Mr. Justice
Erie, should, in accordance with the law of the case, have
directed the jury to find a verdiet for the plaintiff. Mr. Cob-
bett also pressed some minor points on the consideration of
the court, and supported his application by an affidavit the
contents of which did not appear.—The Court deferred its
decision.

POLICE.—YESTERDAY.
MANSION.HOUSE.—TRICILS OF SHERIFFS OFFICERS.
—J. Seymour, alias Brooks, and S. W. Alabaster, were
again charged with forgery.—H. Hicks' of Philpott-place,
City, plumber, stated that he accused Alabaster, who had
previously gene by the name of West, of having committed
a forgery-by signing his (Hicks's) name to a letter of recom-
mendation of himself, so as cop rocure credit for the party
so recommended.—The prosecutor said that, unfortunately,
the gentleman who held the letter in which the name had
been inserted, was not in town, mid he begged that his lord-
ship would be so good as to postpone the ease until so im-
portant a witness could attend. " The letter states," said
the prosecutor," that I have known Mr. Alabaster for many
years, and that I would have no objection to trust him with
hundreds or thousands. I have had considerable
the
of losses
in consequence, and I never wrote anything
kind, nor authorised anybody to write such • thing.
The prisoner Alabastor admitted to me some time afterwards.
when I questioned him upon the subject, that he knew the
letter was not mine, and he said the signature was the writing
of Brooks, the other prisoner, and that he thought he could
take the liberty with me to get that person to write a recom-
mendatory letter in ray name.'—The Lord Mayor said that if
the prosecutor could produce an other evidence there could
be no ground for detaining the prisoner.—The prisoners said
the charge lEEE a mere ruse to get them into the hands of
sheriff's officers, who were waiting about to arrest them, and
Alabaster requested that his lordship would be so good as to
remand him in order that he might get out of th
ee way of eo
unfair a maincurre.—The Lord Mayor said be
a nothing
to do with the authority of any sheriff's officers, and could
not think of interfering with the liberty of the prisoners
by sink
them back to gaol when there was no
evidence against them upon which he would be
justified in remanding them.—Tbe moment it was found
that the Lord Mayor was determined to discharge the pri-
soners, • sherifr• officer collared Alabaster and proceeded to
pull him from the bar. Alabaster resisted, and loudly ap-
pealed to the Lord Mayor, who declared that he would not

__.--.--t------------ __ .
quietly endure such a violation of the dignity of • court in
which the chief magistrate sat to administer justice, end
commanded that decency should be observed. Mr. Hum-
phreys, upon the part of his client Alabaster, then charged
the sheriff's officer wtth having committed an assault upon
him, sed stated that the case of forgery had been got up
merely for the purpose of grabbing the man for a debt, sod
that a person who was brought before a magistrate compul-
sorily and discharged, was entitled to protection for a reason-
able time on his return bonse.—The Lord ayor said he
would take the evidence of Alabuter as to the assault. His
lordship accordingly heard the evidence, and bound
the sheriff's officer in the sum of 101. on his
own reougnisances to appear to answer the charge.—
Alabaster, upon retiring a acond time from the justice-m
was, it appeared, arrested by the follower of the sheriff's
officer, and again loudly appealed to the Lord Mayor, who
directed that the person who was complained against as
having violated the pence on the person of Alabaster should
be brought before biee.—The follower was then accused of a
breach of the peace as well as his peincipal, and bound over
in the same amount, on the same conditions.—lminetliately
after the case woo decided upon, Seymour, the second pri-
soner, was detained upon a charge of having stolen • clock,
the property of Mr. James Holloway, 128, ?theories. The
evidence, which showed • clear case of swindling, was then
gone into, and the prisoner was committed for the robbery.
BOW-STREET.—Stetine.—On Monday evening, 0
C. T. Barrier was charged with assaulting his wife, by
striking end kicking and otherwise in-treating ber.—The
complainant had been married only three months, and in
consequence of the prisoner not being able to mai
ntaine n hLer
er,
she was occasionally compelled to be a dep
mother, who was a very poor widow. On Sunday last she
left home saying that she would return in a short time, but
knowing that her hik.bund was not in a condition to assist
her, eke avaied herself of the shlter her mother could afford
her, and onl the following morning the prisoner haring met
her outside the door of this court, he accused her of remain-
ing out all night for improper purposes, which she denied;
and not feeling aatistisd with the reasons she gave for her
absence all night, he struck her a blow in the face,
which he accompanied with a severe kick. On
recovering, she came before the magistrate, and having
related the circumstance, • warrant was instantly issued for
the apprehension of the prisoner, who was placed at the bar
at 5 o'clock ; and, after witnesses were heard
fine in supp4os. or
part of
the charge, Mr. Hall ordered him topy. a ef
14 days' imprisonment, end to put in sureties in t
tohe sum of
151., besides entering into his own recognisance., keep the
peace for 12 months. The prisoner was then removed to the
cell, previous to which be asked one of the warrant officers
to lend him a penknife, which was refund,and having sent
for his father te become a surety for his good behaviour,
h
befre e arrivd he contived to fasten his handkerchief to
a wire in the ceell, and, byr standing on a bench, succeeded in
destroying himself without the knowledge of the officers.
WORSHIP-STREST. SANITARY ROSECUTION.
Mrs. S. White, carrying on the business of a horse-slaugh-
terer, in North-st., Whitechapel, appeared before Mr. Ham-
mill, upon an information exhihited at the instance ofthe
authorities of the Londuit Hospital,in which she was charged
with perniitting a quantity of noxious and offensive matter
to accumulate u sin her premises, which was calculated to
be seriously detrimental to the health of the surrounding
neighburhood.—Mr. John
hat a surgeon in attend-
ance at the hi:aline', stated at onThornton, the 18th ult. he accom-
panied one of the other medical officers of that institution
and Inspector Waller to the defendant's premises, which
consisted, amongst other places, of a large shed, where they
found portions of slaughtered horses lying about, and •
quantity of liquid motor, in • stagnant state of the most
offensive description. They also observed • mass of refuse
animal matter in various stages of &companion and putre-
faction, which emitted a fetid and overpowering effluvium,
calculated to produce the most pernicious effects upon the
health of the surrounding district, mott densely populated,
and to permeate through the wards of the hospitnl, which
was only 150 yards distant. —Mr. S. Jessop Birch, one ef the
medical officers of the hospital, gave a rrecisely similar
description of the nature of the nuisance complained of, and
stated it frequently occurred that in the cue of patient* who
were admitted into the institution suffering from com-
pound fractures, and who were going on favoura-
bly, a violent reaction would suddenly occur, and
erysipelas intervene, in consequence of their expo-
sure to the noxious state of the atmosphere, arising from
the decomposed matter and other nuisances which abounded
in the neighbourhood. The witness further added that it
had been indisputably asoertained, in the course of the sani-
tary in which had been carried on in that quer-
ti,osi rkts,ethdaiabomatuirie_onnee.npboeti-a3hucall.fti, ohybfk.n.iieth.hheeo.pitugusepdfaero;n7:hpotmahpteutalpomanrideio.:

affected with fever, produced in • great measure by the
said it was obvious. that the defendant coAild. not he permit-
health conduct business in a manner prejudicial to the publtc
of the neighbourhood ; but, under all the circum-
stances, be should suspend his decision for a fortnight, and
direct the iropector to visit the premises in the interim, and
take care that the offensive matter was thoroughly removed.
—There was a second summons against Mr. John Smith, a
bone boiler, residing next door to the first defendant, which
was also adjourned for a like period, and upon similar con-
ditions.
CLERKENWELL.—Bunot•ay.--J. Cummins and G.
Johnson, known thieves, were charged with burglary and
stealing • valuable gold watch, a quantity of silver plate, and
jewellery to a considerable amount. On the 2d of April the
prosecuteis went to
they with her daughter and nephew
on their return home they found that the house, No. 4,
Stansnorrestreet, Pancras-road, bad been entered by
thieves and plundered of the above property. laformatlon
was given to the police, two of whom, on the evening of the
robbery, had seen the prisoners and another well-known
;thief, named J. Rouse, lurking about the house, and who
teamed them and took them Into custody. Rouse was ad-
, mitted as evidence against the prisoners, when he disclosed
that he was waiting cutaide the house whilst the prisoners
' entered and committed the robbery. Other witnesses corro-
borated the evidence, and the prisoners were committed
for trial.
Arraurr To IMURDER.—C. Adams was again charged
with having assaulted Sarah Aged nn D
witha an somatavis with intentujson Jane

"'sedan, aged 19. She was committed for trial on bah

Charge'.
WOOLWICH.—ALLEOAD CONNIVANCII AT ESCAPE.—
Danil Reirdon, a sergeant of the FL division of police, at-
tached to the dockyard fora, wee charged with having
allowed to escape from his custody a person named Robert
Ross Dix, on the_etti April. The prosecution took place by
order of the commissioners of police—An opinion prevailed
that Dix had been in the pomession of a large sum of money,
with which he had bribed the sergeant to allow him to es-
cape. In the early part of April a person named Robert Ross
Dix, in the employment of Mr. Christopher George, a shot
manufacturer, of Bristol, absconded with some account tool
and ether property. Wind-bills, offering • reward of 1001.
for his apprehension were immediately issued' one of which
was transmitted in a letter to a shipwright in Woolwich
,dockyard, named John Greenslade, by his mother, who re.
' sided at Bristol. Oftelliaftee, who it appears bad known Din
some years previously, immediately; on the receipt of the
letter, repaired to Charlton pier, and after waiting there
about an hour, one of the Waterman steamer came in, and
the very first person who stepped on shore was Robert Rosa
Dix,
_the man of whom he was 'ie,_search. Greenslade fol-
lowed him till he came to the dockyard gate, and then
gave him into the custody of the defendant, Sergeant Reir-
don. This occurred on the 3rd instant- The prisoner
Dix was taken before Mr. Traill at the Woolwich police
court the same afternoon, and discharged from the police
sheet, the case being out of the jurisdiction of the ma-
gistate, the sergeant being ordered to take him to Bristol.
On leaving ti e police court Reirdon proceeded with his
prisoner and Greenslade to the George the Fourth public-
house, wltere the) partook of two you of halt and-halt and
a biscuit. They afterwards went to the station in the dock-
yard, when lteirdon asked Greenslade whether Mr. Dix was
a gentleman or not; and on Greenslade replying that he be -
lieved he was, Reirdon replied, "Then we must treat
the him as •
gentleman." Tea was provided forthe prisonerin station-
house ; and on leaving the dockyard they rep
airedtwa to
of ale
the
United Service public house, where the, ds
and two cheroots, for out of which Reirdon paid. On their
arrival at Greenwich, on Greenslade stating th
ata he should
go to Bristol, Reirdon persuaded him not to gyng, "
will get none of this (pointing to the reward on the bill), tut
I will act right by you." The prisoner Dix slept that night
at the station et Greenwich, whilst Reirdon proceeded to
Clifford's lintel, to get possession of the books and property
left there by the prisoner. Here he represented to Mr. Nor-
thern, the keeper of the hotel, and his daughters, that
the prisoner Dix was a respectable honest man, and that he
believed that it was some family matter that he was in cue-
tody tor. Raving lett the books at the etatien-house of the
F division, Reirdon took his prisoner to the terminus of the
Great Western Railway, where he arrived shortly before
twelve o'clock. Instead, however, of proceeding to Bristol
by the twelve o'clock train, he went with his prisoner to the
Mint tavern, near the terminus of the railway, where they
partook of lunch, and afterwards smoked together in the
coffee-room upstairs. A few minutes before two o'clock
(having missed both the twelve o'clock and one o'clock
trains), Reireloa came into the office of the railway and
booked two place e, the prisoner, as was distinctly sworn by
Mr. Besant, the railway clerk, not being in his company.
Ile returned in a minute or two afterwards and demanded
the money hack, saying that his prisoner had eecaped. There
war no crowd in or near the railway station to favour
the prisoner's escape, as the train was a remarkably
light one. It was further proved that the sergeant (Heir-
don) went afterwards on several occasions to Clifford's Rotel,
and said that the prisoner had been discharged by the ma-
gistrate, and that he would call at the hotel to settle a mis-
' take in his account, and that they w ere ont to take notice
of anything that had transpieed, and that it was not until
he was accompanied by an officer from Bristol that he told
the landlord that the ptisoner had escaped out of his custody.
—As there were several other witemees in attendance, and
as the whole of them could not be examined, Mr. '.l: raill ad-
journed the case tel Saturday.

MONEY MARKE
TUESDA T.
Y EVENING.
The result of the great communist movement in
Faris, which looked at first more threatening than
any of the menacing demonstrations since Feb. 24,
has very much contributed to a feeling of greater con- ,
fideace in, and more hopeful anticipations from, the Et
Provisional Government of Fracee. It is not too much 511
Ito say that the example of union set here, on occasion tr
of the governmentally exaggerated chartist movement !!
of Monday week, between the real people of the
working and middle classes, for the repression of any
physical-force attempts to create confusion, has been
found to exercise a beneficial influence in ex-

citing the courage of the orderly classes
in Paris. For the first time, and under
the immediate excitement of that example,
the real people, the property and industry of
Paris, have shown themselves courageously, end'
the mob of desperadoes and felons quailed at once beo-
fore the formidable and settled determination f
putting down disorder. The funds today, in coupe-
quence, were steady, although without material im-
provement ; but without these favourable advices from
Paris, symptoms were not wanting of a decline of
and ot confidence, which the accounts from
other parts of the continent, discouraging as they
lerere, would otherwise have seemed to justify.
The failures in Hamburg, brought by. the mail yes-
terday, were not individually of much importance, it
is said, but apprehensions were entertained lest
others of greater consequence should follow, from
the great losses suffered last year from failures
here and elsewhere, and this year from more heavy
failures still nearer home continentally, and from the
tremendous deterioration of the values of all public
securities. From Amsterdam the reports are ex-
tremely unfavoumble, so far as respects the stock-
market. Exclusive of the failures which have been
declared before, and minor casualties now, it is stated
that certain capitalists of consideration, exclusively
engaged in financial and stock business,
have n-
nounced themselves in liquidation. It must be ob-
served, that no insolvency is involved in such a decla-
ration : it merely explains the intention of the
parties to wind up and retire from business, although
it is to be fairly presumed that such intention
has been the result of very serious leases,
a disgust, therefore, with business, and a de-
termination to realise the wreck of great properties
and retire. Without mentioning names, for which
there is no necessity in such case, it may be /stated
that one of the parties so advised to be acting is, and
has long been, the agent of a great firm of European
capitalists.
Console, betwixt these two c-anscs of elevation and
depression, were reduced to a sort of neutral poaition.

At one time iii the day the money price was however
better than for time, and constituted a "backwarda-
tion" of k per cant. For the first time for
some weeks the market has cloned to-day with
a higher quotation for account, as in the usual
one
course
in ordinary times, than for money. In Reduced a
Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. this was the first day
of open transfer, and the Bank was really over-
was
powered with customers on the occasion ;
such
the crowd, that very many, after long waiting, were
force to leave in despair of arriving at their turn. I
Reduced Threes were 801 to I. 'three-and-a-Quarter
per Cents., 811 to 1. Long Annuities, 81 to 6-16.
Exchequerilills, 40s. to 435. premium. India Bonds.
18a. to 22e. premium. Bank Stock, 187 to 9. India'
Stock, 227 to 230.
The foreign market, which latterly appeared to be
covering both in prices and dealings, was heavy to-day,
and with few transactions. Brazilian were called 60
to 3. Danish, mention, d for the first time for many days
for business done, were quoted 53 to 60, but sold at
55 and 56. Dutch Two-and-a• Half per Cents. 38 to
40 ; the Fours, 54 to 8. Spanish Fives, 101 to 11 I
the Threes, 191 to 201 ; Passive, 2;,. to I. Portages, \
141 to 151. Mexican, 141 to 15. Perurian 29 to 31.1
In foreign exchange there may be noted' a slight
improvement on Paris, so far as the rates at short, for
three months' paper was still not negotiable. The
negotiations on Paris at short were 25.30 to 65 ; ea
Amsterdam 12 61 to 7 ; on Rotterdam 12 7 to 7i ; as ii
Hamburg 142t03; on Frankfort 123 to 4;
all on Ler
horn 31; on Naples 38 ; on Madrid 42 to other chief
, at 3
months ;on Lisbon, at 60 days, 501. On
customary places no quotations were made, and no
business done.
For several days last week the Amsterdam stock
market showed satisfactory signs of commenting re-
covery from the disastrous day by day depression of
all public securith a which followed upon the events
of February in Paris. The home stocks regained
some five or six per cent- of their lost values. It
will be seen from preoeding remarks that the market
has relapsed into feebleness, altogether, however,
from incidents and casualties bearing upon it of
domestic origin. But whatever the Stock Exchange
digesters and mishaps of these laVer a
be mentioned to the credit of that commercial
and financial metropolis, that !scarcely has any great
purely commercial failure been declared ; when com-
mercial failures have been announced, they have almost
invariably been connected with, and therefore have
been caused by, stock speculations, out of the order of
regular business, upon which ruinous loves were of
course incurred as the consequence of the extraordi-
nary events of the times. In Itotterdam, where the
merchants are more wary still, and do not travel out
of their legitimate business to speculate in stocks, it is
only proper to state that not one single failure has
had to be recorded in all these stormy times, and the
Nieuwe Rottordamshe Courant is fairly entitled for
its town and constituency to take credit for the fact,
M it does.
