LAW INTELLIGENCE.--July 28

COURT OF DIVORCE.
(Before Sir J, P, Wilde and a Jury.)

EXTRAORDINARY CHARGE OF CRUELTY AGAINST, AND
COUNTERCHARGE OF ADULTERY BY, A HUSBAND-
BANCROFT T. BANCROFT.

This was a suit instituted by the wife of the respondent, a
person carrying on a respectable business at Manchester, for
a judicial separation on the ground of her husband's cruelty
by kicking and knocking her about. The respondent denied
the cruelty, and also added on the record a plea that his
wife had been guilty of an incestuous intercourse with
her brother in the law, the husband of her sister, a Mr
Wm. Rumney.

The parties had been married as recently as April,
1866, and, as stated by the judge, she committed
a great fraud on her husband by representing
a child then 12 years of age as her niece, when in fact it
was her own illegitimate child by the husband of her aunt.
This led to the cruelty complained of. She left her husband's
home, and refused to return on any account, and took these
proceedings, when, for the first time, the charges of her
adultery were brought forward, and were characterised as a
conspiracy on the part of the respondent to relieve himself
from supporting his wife.
The case commenced on Saturday, occupied the whole
of yesterday, and the greater portion of to-day, resulting
in the jury retiring, and after a lengthened discus-
sion, returning a verdict that the respondent had been
guilty of the cruelty alleged, and that his counter charge
of adultery had not been proved.
Decree nisi for judicial separation.
There is a cross suit for dissolution of marriage by rea-
son of the wife's adultery, but as the facts alleged are the
same as these decided by the jury, it will not be proceeded
with.

The Price of Gold.

--
The quotation of gold at Paris is about 23 per mille prh., an d
the short exchange on London is 25.20 per £1 sterling. Ou
comparing these rates with the English Mint price of J.:3
17s. 1041 it appears that
per ounce for standard gold, gold is
rather more than 1-10th per cent. dearer in raria than in.
London.
By adviees from Hamburg the price of gold is 425 per mar
and the short exchanti on London is 13.5 a per £1 sttrlia`-f-
Standard gold at the English Idiot price is, therefore, about
3-10 the per cent, dearer in Landon than in Hamburg.
