LAW INTELLIGENCE.

. COURT OF KING'S BENCH, JUNE O.
THE LINO v. STAFFORD COOKE.
Mr. Twuttirox, on Saturday moved the Court tO entreat the
recognizances of Mr. Cooke, on an affidavit of Mr. Roget, that
he had called on Mr. Cooke, and that Mr. Cooke had refused
to answer his questions on the state of his health, and had treated
him very rudely.
Mr. CAXPBELL afterwards, on the same day, on the behalf
of ;11r. Cooke, prayed the indulgence of the Court, on affidavits
from two Surgeons, that Mr. Cooke was in such a condition as
to he unable to leave his house without endangering his life.
Mr. TAUNTON on this said, that if Mr. Campbell would
swear that Mr. Cooke had not been in the streets last week, he
would let the judgment stand over till next Michaelmas Term.
Mr. Campbell this morning produced an affidavit to this
effect, when

, 311. TAUNTON Still continuing to urge that the recogniz-
ances be estreated—

The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE said to him—" Mr. Campbell
has answered the alternative you put. I think the recogniz-
ances must be stayed."

CRIMINAL INFORMATION.

It will be secollected that Mr. Brougham, in the early part
of this Term, obtained a rule Niri for a criminal information
against M. Carvalho, for a libel on the Portuguese Minister,
the Marquis Palmella. He afterwards obtained an extension
of this rule, lio as to take in another person, a M. Daroga.
Mr. SCARLETT this day shewed cause against the rule, on
an affidavit of M. Carvalho, that he was neither the printer,
publisher, or proprietor of the work containing the libel, nor
had any connection whatever with it.
The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE—Have you any affidivit from
the other parties ?—Mr. SCARLETT—No, my Lord.
The LORD CHIEFJUSTICE—Have you any objections, Mr.
Brougham, that so much of the rule as relates to M. Carvalho
be discharged ?—Mr. Buotmaress—None, my Lord.
Mr. SCARLETT acceded.—.So much of the rule as relates to
M. Carvalho was therefore discharged.

CONSPI RACY.
THE XTXO V. HOLLINBURY, ROWLEY AND SMITH.
The defendants, on the motion of Mr. SCARLET T, appeared
on the floor to receive the judgment of the Court, convicted of
a conspiracy to extort money from Josiah Taylor, by preferring
a hill of indictment against him for keeping a gambling house.
The COMMON SERGEANT, who was Counsel for Rowley,
endeavoured to obtain a new trial ; but the Court saw no ground
for disturbing the verdict.
Mr. JEssop and Mr. CHITTY were heard in behalf of the
other defendants.

Mr. SCARLT TT addressed the Court in aggravation.
Mr. Justice BAYLtY sentenced Hollinbury to six months
imprisonment, and Howley to three months. Smith was allowed
to enter into his recognizance to come up for judgment when
called for. The Learned Judge, in his observations on the
nature of the offence, said Hollinbury would be struck off the
rolls as an attorney, and not allowed in future to practice in
any of the Courts of Westminster.
Mr. Wooler was in Court ready to make his motion this day,
but on the suggestion of the LORD Crum, Juswlct, consented
to postpone it to next Term.

ARCHES COURT.:-MOYDAY.
OREM V. aRTIO. _

This was a suit instituted by the husband against the wife, I
to obtain a restitution of conjugal rights.
Sir J. Nicuo Li. pronounced judgment. The defence, he ob.
served, set up was, that the husband had entered into a deed,
by which he consented to his wife living separate from him, on
her undertaking to pay him a proportion of the annual income
which she enjoyed in her own right. Now the Court had, in
repeated instance, decided, that such a deed was no bar to a
suit of this kind, for it was impossible for the Court to enter
into an examination of the expediency of the parties living
separate or together; it was sufficient that it confined itself to
the strict law, as applying to the case before it. In the pre-
sent instance, the defence set up was wholly untenable, and
he was, therefore, bound to pronounce Mr. Greig entitled to
the prayer of his suit, and to order a Monition to issue against
Mrs. Greig, calling upon her to conform to the decree of the
Court.
THE OFFICE OF JUDGE PROMOTED By THE cuURCH-
WATIDENs OF THING, HERTFORDSHIRE, AOASXST
HENRY wILLIAMs.
This was a suite promoted against Mr. Henry Williams, of
Gray's Inn-pace, for chiding, brawling, and quarrelling in the
church of Tring, Hertfordshire, during Divine Service, and
thereby disturbing the congregation. It appeared that there
had had been some dispute as to whether the acting Churchwardens
had been duly elected or not, and that the Defendant, enter.

and by order of the Minister Mr. Williams was removed out of
the church.

Sir J. Nictiou. pronounced judgment. The offence int.
puted had been most clearly proved, and the Court therefore
felt itself called upon to admonish Mr. Williams against the
commission of such excesses in future, and to condemn him in
the full costs of this suit.

AFFECTING STORY.—Some time ago, a young
man took up his residence in a Scottish village, much cele-
brated for its delightful situation and mineral waters. During
his stay he succeeded in gaining the affections of a very amiable
young girl, daughter of the person with whom he lodged. He
told her he was a younger branch of a most respectable family
in the north of Scotland, and that, owing to some domestic
misfortunes, he was then in a kind of exile from his father's
house. By this representation he had the address to draw
money, to a considerable amount, from the affectionate and
trusting girl. At length, pretending business, he took leave,
solemnly pledging to return in a few weeks and make her his
wife. About three months after his departure, a letter was
delivered to her, dated-from a jail in the south of Scotland.
It proved to be from her lover, and stated that a short time
after leaving her, he had, from necessity, contracted a trifling
debt, and had been thrown into prison ; at the same time
entreating her, as she valued his regard, to relieve him from a
situation so unworthy. The faithful girl, listening only to the
dictates of her love, set off immediately. with all the money
she could procure, to give him liberty. In an inclement season
—through a country with which she was unacquainted—she at
length reached the place of her destination. With slow and
feeble step, she proceeded upwards in the principal street, but
found it impossible to advance, owing to an immense crowd of
people to witness the punishment of a criminal. She stepped
on the stairs leading to a shop, and involuntarily turning her
eyes upon the poor wretch, writhing under the lash of the exe-
cutioner, beheld the object of her tender solicitude. A large
placard was placed upon his breast, intimating that the punish-
ment was for the crime of theft. In a state of insensibility she
sank into the arms of one of the by-standers. Reason never
again dawned on her darkened mind : and, at this moment, she
is to be seen wandering in her native village, an affecting in-
stance of the basest villany triumphing over unsuspecting inno-
cence.—( Edinburgh Observer.)
MELANCHOLY ACCIDENT.-00 Sunday morn-
ing six yonng men took a boat and Waterman on a party of
pleasureto Richmoiad : upon their arrival there, they stayed a
considerable time, when it is supposed that from the nature of
their refreshments they became rather intoxicated. After hav-
ing thus enjoyed themselves, they returned by the same con-
veyance, and had arrived in safety at the Old Swan Stairs,
Thames-street, between seven and eight o'clock, when Beane,
the Waterman, made for the shore. On his attempting to land
them, they began to swear that they would not pay him for
their day's pleasure unless he would take them beneath Lon-
don Bridge. This he at first refused to do, alleging the danger
and rashness of the attempt, but upon hearing of the danger,
they said that it was an idle excuse ; the waterman, finding that
they were determined not to pay him unless they went, con-
sented. and put the boat off. Ile had, however, only just
entered beneath the arch, when the boat became unmanageable,
was upset, and the seven unfortunate persons precipitated inn)
the river. Assistance was instantly given, hut in vain, as -two
out of the six sunk to rise no more, and Beane, the waterman,
was taken up at some distance. The bodies of the two unfor-
tunate men have not yet been found.
CORONEIL'S INQUEST.-011 Saturday an inqui-
sition was taken at the Duchess of York public-house, Kings-
land-road. on the body of Thomas Wells, a labourer at the gas
works in that neighbourhood, who was drowned in a tank at that
eatablishment on Thursday last. It appeared by the evidence,
that the deceased and a fellow-labourer were at work on a stage
over the tank about 5 o'clock on Thursday evening,when by some
accident they were
precipitated into the tank, containing water
14 feet in depth. One of the men, Mathew Crawley, was im-
mediately taken out of the water, but the deceased was un-
fortunately drowned, and his body was taken out in about 15
minutes afterwards. Mr. John Wall, a surgeon, residing near
the spot, tried all the usual methods to restore animation, but
without effect. Matthew Crawley and another labourer, named
Daniel Brooks, who witnessed the occurrence, were examined,
and it clearly appeared that no blame was attributable to any
person. The stage, on which the deceased and Crawley were
at work, was large enough to have held six persons. The Jury
instantly returned their verdict—" Accidental Death."
