Mr. DALLAS strongly relied upon the case of
Weeden and Timbrell, supposing the law laid down
in that case was not disputed. There it had been
distinctly settled that the Plaintiff, in an action for
criminal conversation, could not be said to have lost
the society of his wile, if she had been separated
from him at the time of the act of adultery being
committed. He also inferred, from the whole tenor
of the letters alludod to, and the general conduct
of the Defendant, that he had, by his own admis-
sions, behaved himself towards his wife in so vio-
lent and cruel a manner, as by no means entitled
him to so large damages as had been awarded him.
Lord ELLENBOROUGH observed then, that these
letters were capable of two constrations ; but the
most natural one to adopt was, that his affeftion
surmounted his jealousy.
Mr. Buiteows, on the same side with Mr. DAL-
LAS, went into a very long and able argument. He
took many objeCtions to the declaration, contend-
ing that, by his own aft, the Defendant had been
separated from his wife • and he trusted there
was enough in the whole of the case to induce their
Lordships to investigate the question again.
The Court, after some short consnhation, de-
ferred pronouncing judgment until Monday next.
In the case of John Brock, an impressed seaman,
Mr. JERVIS obtained a rule early in the term, for a
Habeas Corpus, to bring up John Brock, who was
an apprentice on board a Greenlander. The Aft of
Parli.ament specified, that they should not be bound
for less than three years; but in this ca .4 the appren-
tice had been bound for five years, and had served
upwards of three, besides was upwards of eighteen
years of age. A subsequent rule was obtained for
quashing the Maims Corpus, and the case came on
to be argued before the Court, when their Lord-
ships decided, that. although there was no restraint
upon the master from taking the apprentices under
indentures for Bee years, yet the true meaning of the
Legislature was, that of a nursery for the sea ser-
vice, and the navy was not to be deprived of their
assistance after the period provided in the At. The
Rule for quashing the writ was accordingly made
absolute.

. COMMON FLEAS.

MONT OF DORKING MARKET.

DUKE Or NORFOLK V. HAMMOND.

Serjeant Best moved an arrest of judgment in
this ease. It was an anion brought ley the Duke
against the Defendant, for selling a quantity of corn
within the limits of the town of Dorking, in Surry,
without paying toll to the Duke, who had a Royal
grant of a market there, under which he claimed a
right of taking toll from all the corn which should
be sold within the town. The ground en which
Serjeant &sr contended the *pigment should be
arrested was, that the declaration did not state the
Duke had any right to exad toll, except where the
cern was sold in the market, and that it did not ap-
pear. in evidence, this corn bad been sold within
the limits of the market, but only within the limits
of the town.
Serjeants Simians° and BAYLEY, on the other
side, contended, that market and town were co-es-
tensive, and that, therefore the declaration was sup-
ported by the evidence.
Serjeant Best denied this. and offered to pay all
the costs, and go down to a new trial. This was
declined on the part of the Duke.
The Court deferred pronouncing judgment until
Monday.
Serjeant SHEPHERD moved, that Evan Vaughan
should be again allowed to put his name as an At-
torney on the Roll of the Court. lie stated, that,
about fifteen years since, h had voluntarily taken
it off, and had tetired into the country to live on Isis
fortune be had acquired ; of which being totally de-
prived by unforeseen events. he now begged to be
admitted to the praelice of his profession.
Sir JAMES MANSFIELD said, he thought he had
better try some other line, as, by this time, he must
have forgotten all his law ; and he was sure, it his
brother SHEPHERD had been in the country for fif-
teen yeArs, he would not remember much of what
he now knew.

POLICE.

SOW-STREET.
On Saturday. join Steward and Wrifiano Irma.
were brought to the above Office, charged before
Mr. GRAHAM with violently assaulting Elizabeth
Freeman and Mary Watson, by throwing a quart
bottle at them in the pit of Drury-lane Theatre,
on Friday evening..

Elizabeth Freeman said. she is a servant in a fa-
mily in Davies-Street. Berkley-Square : on Friday
evening he went into the pit of Drury-lane Thea- '
tre ; and, during the first act of the entertainment,
she received a violent 'blow on the back pact of her
head, which stunned her, and made her insensible
fora short time.
She had a beaver hat on which broke the force of
the blow ; if she had not had something strong on
her head, it is supposed it would have killed her on
the spot.
Mary Watson, the daughter of a sadler in Mad-
dox-street. Hanover-square, said, she was sitting
next to the last witness in the pit, and the bottle tell
from her head upon her right :boulder, which
bruised her so much. that she was obliged to wear
her arm in a sling.
John Dacosta, of Exeter Change, said, he was
sitting behind the two prosecutrixes, and saw the
bottle fail upon them ; it did not break ; he took it
up, and produced it.
Mary Kemp, and Elizabeth Seher, two fruit ern-
men belonging to the Two-shilling gallery of Drury.
lane Theatre, swore, positively, that they saw the
pri over, John Steward, throw the bottle.
John Hickey said he was in the Two shilling gals
lery of Drury-lane Theatre, on Friday evening, and
sat nett to the Prisoner Steward, who was in com-
pany with the prisoner Wellum: they were extreme-
ly noisy and troublesome during the evening, and
just as Mr. Bannister was put upon the table in the
entertainment, to be anatomised, the Prisoner took
a bottle by the neck, and said he should like to throw
it as far as it would go, and instantly threw it with
great force into the pit.
There being no evidence to implicate the prisoner
Weiltim, in throwing the bottle, but that lie was
only in company with Steward, he was discharged.
The parties were bound over to prosecute Steward.
And he was coninsitted for trial, not having any
I bail.
