This was a petition presented by the wife for dissolution
of marriage on the ground of cruelty and desertion.
The sister of the petitioner said—On the 29th of April,
1859, I went, in company with the petitioner, to No. 5,
Townley. street, Ramsgate, in consequence of Mr. Smith
deserting his wife. Mr. Pritchard, the superintendent of
the police, was with us. We went up to a bedroom in the
house and knocked at the door, when I heard Smith say,
"Who's there." The landlord told him the superintendent
of police wished to see him. After some further conversa-

tion the door was opened, when we all went in
and found Smith in his shirt, and a woman named
Weller was in bed. I told him to give his wife some
money to get back to Oxford with. as he knew very well he
had left her v ith but a few shillings. Mrs. Smith took up
Smith's trowsers, and took a roll of bank notes from one of
the pockets, and as she was handing them over to the supe-
rintendent of police, Smith said he should not have them.
Having seen the state Smith was living in, we left the place.
Thomas Neal, of the Ramsgate police force, residing at
5, Townley street, said—l remember a lady and gentleman
coming to live at my house in 1859. They passed as man
and wife. On the 15th of May Mrs. Smith, her sister, and
Mr. Pritchard came. We went upstairs. I knocked at the
bedroom door, when Smith asked what was wanted. I told
them the superintendent of police. Smith asked whether it
would not do in the morning, but we said " No," and he
then opened the door.

14 years. Mr. Smith was the master On the 29th
of April he left, the place, taking with him about £7O or
£BO. I never lived with him since. I saw him at Ramsgate,
and since that I have received two notes from him 14 or 15
months after, both of which I have destroyed. I have also
seen him twice, once at Mr. William's, St. Giles, Oxford,
and after that at the workhouse, when he came on business
respecting his accounts with the guardians. A new master
was appointed 13 weeks after my husband left. I don't
know where he has been living since April, 1859.
Decree nisi granted with costs.
COTTERILL V. COTTERILL

This was a petition presented by the wife for dissolution
on the ground of adultery and cruelty. The respondent
denied the allegations, and pled that the wile deserted him.
Mr. Charles Edward Butler proved the marriage, which
took place in Dec., 1853.

Mary Ann Cotterill, the petitioner, said—l was living in
Wells-street, Birmingham, in 1859. My husband treated
me very unkindly. He was very dissipated, and he used
often to strike me. On one occasion he threw a small
table at me, but his ill-usage was so frequent that I cannot
recollect any particular instance. I never used to speak to
him when he returned home at night. When we were

living in Hampton-street, after this, he attempted to take
the wedding-ring off my finger, giving no reason for sa
doing. I resisted, of course, and he then struck me on the
head while I was in bed. Elizabeth Jones, the servant,
came into the room, and he then became more quiet, We
used to have frequent struggles for the possession of the
wedding-ring, but he never succeeded in getting it. He
used to pull my hair down in a most violent manner, and
he used to throw the pillows at me.

The Judge Ordinary—But that d d not hurt you?
Witness—He used to strike me as well. One night he
became so violent that I had to leave the bedroom. In
February, 1860, he ordered me to go to sleep in the attic,
but I refused to do so. In April of the same year, when
Mrs. Ryder was in the house, he quarrelled with me about
some ducks which were in a basket. I asked him not to put
thew on the table, but he took hold of my hair, and taking
up a pair of scissors was about to cut my hair off, when
Mrs. Ryder took the scissors from him. This was on the
13th April, and I left him on the 16th, and then went to live
with my mother. She was stopping with us some time be-
fore this. My husband on one occasion said he would kill
her, and took up the poker to do so. I attempted to prevent
him getting into her apartment, when he pulled me round
the room by my hair. I saw my husband early in the morn-
ing of the day I left him. I did not speak to him.
Cross-examined—Between the 13th and 16th of April we
slept together, but by husband never took his meals at
home. My mother came to live in our house immediately
after our marriage. She continued to do so until six weeks
before the separation. She used, at times, to be very un-
friendly with my husband.
Elizabeth Johns said the conduct of Mr. Cotterill towards
his wife was violent and brutish. She frequently had to go
to her assistance, when she generally found Mr. Cotterill
holding her by the hair and striking her.
Mrs. Ryder corroborated the evidence of the petitioner
with respect to the attempt of the respondent to cut Mrs.
Cotterill's hair.

Francis Arthur said he had seen the respondent take
women to certain houses in Chapel-street, Birmingham,
which he had pointed out to a person named Alexander.
Stamford Alexander, superintendent of police at Bir-
mingham, said the houses referred to by the last witness
were common brothels. The one in Chapel-street was pro-
fessedly a coffee-shop, but it v. as a place of resort for pro-
stitutes and thieves of the lowest description.

POLICE-THIS DAY.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

CURIOUS APPLICATION.—A respectable-looking female,
named Anne Larrard, applied to Mr. Knox for his advice
under the following circumstances :

The applicant said she had been burnt out of her house,
No. 50, Marshall-street, at a quarter past four that morn-
ing (the whole of the inmates being rescued with the aid of
the fire-escapes and the police), and as she was not insured,
she wished to know, having been informed to the contrary,
whether, as she was not insured, she could go into the
place and remove what things had not been destroyed ?
Mr. Knox informed the applicant that she could cer-
tainly take the things. If they had been destroyed, not
being insured, she could not obtain compensation, and
therefore she was entitled to them.

The applicant thanked the magistrate for his advice.
ROBBING FELLOW - WORKMEN.—BAD CASE.:—Louis
Jouamot, a Frenchman, was charged with the following
robberies:—

appears that the prisoner lodged at the house of Mr.
Robert Elgar, bootmaker, of 57, Charlotte-street, with
another bootmaker, and that he got up before his fellow-
lodger and carried off in a bag a pair of trousers and other
articles belonging to Thomas Setterfield, some property of
Mr. Elgar, a quantity of boot uppers and other articles, the
property of Daniel Nash, and some !ioot uppers, &c., be-
longing to another workman named Simmonds.
Th 9 prisoner was committed for trial.
Several other persons were in court to make charges
against the prisoner—one, an apprentice, who had been
r)bbed of a suit of clothes,
