UNION-HALL.

Jack Simpson, the sailor against whom a com-
plaint was made on the preceding day by his wife, at-
tended again on Wednesday, and stated that he had no
sooner left this office and entered his house, in order
to get possession of his clothes to go to sea from
such a spitfire, than she attacked him like a bull-
dog, tore his traps (clothes), and beat him out of
the place. I promised you, added he to the Ma-
gistrate, that I would not lay a finger upon her if
she tantalized me ever so much. I have religiously
kept that promise, and must say that it was a
struggle to do so. I itched to give her a few stripes
with a rope's end to make her know how to treat a
sailor and her fourth husband better.
Mr. CHAmßEßs—What do you want me to do for
you now, I thought all matters were arranged be-
tween you and that hot-tempered little old woman
that you married for the sake of her money. You
caught a tartar though in her, added the Magistrate.
Simpson scratched his head and looked very
foolish. He said that if he had his seafaring clothes
out of her grip, that was all he wanted—he blessed
his stars for such a deliverance from such a she devil.
Mr. CHAMBERS was convinced if Simpson went
to his wife and civilly requested her to deliver up
would

Simpson—l am not a romancing when I tell your
Worship that rd rather face a gun than face Mr=,

Simpson again—there she stands with a poker in
her fist, and swears that she will batter my skull if
I venture within arm's length of her.
Mr. CIIAMBERS sent an officer with Simpson to
prevent mischief, and to insist upon the wife deliver-
ing up his clothes, to enable him to go to sea again.
On Wednesday Patrick Danayne, an Irish la-
bourer, was brought before Mr. CHAMBERS, charged
with beating his w:fe, and refusing to give her shelter.
Mrs. Datiayne, who has lately come over from
Ireland, commenced the complaint against Paddy by
saying, " Arrah, then your Worihip, is'nt it a poor
case to be bate and knocked about like a shittle-
cock by the likes of this blackguard of mine, and all
for nothing at all, at all."
Mr. CHAMBERS—Have you given him no provo-
ca ion to behave unkind to you ? Mrs. Danayne—
Nb, not a b t in the wide world save and except a
little bit of n slip I made one day in my own
country, but its all over long ago, and where's the
use of bothering about it now. _ _

Patrick—Tell his Honour what that slip was;
spike the t ruth out, and shame the devil.
Mrs. nanayne—Then your Worship, the little
slip I made in my own country was, to have a child
by another man. I tould Paddy all about it before I
married him, and this is the- return I meet with
for speaking the truth, and not keeping the secret to
myself.

Paddy assured the Magistrate that she had ano-
ther husband living, and that he was a great
feflow from Connaught. Now, added Paddy, sup-
pie he came over and found me living with his
wife, why what a murdering shame it would be, so
I thought it best to give her money to pay her pas-
sage by stame back to Ireland.
Mr. CHAMBERS inquired whether the parties were
married according to the forms of the Established
Church ?—Danayre replied that they were married
in a Catholic chapel, and in answer to the Magis-
trate, as to whether the priest had instructed them
get married over again by a clergy Man of the
Church of England, the reply was in the negative.
Mr. CHAMBERS—Then the law does notrecog-

ti'ze this as a valid marriage, and you are at liberty,
added the M.lgibtrate, addressing Danayne, to leave
the woman as soon as you please.
Paddy—By my soul, your Worship, I am right
glad to hear that same, for I would rather go at once
and drowned myself than live with a woman that
deceived me, and had, by her own confession, a
b tstard. But, said he, I shall be able to prove, if it
goes to trial, that she has another husband.
After some discussion, Mrs. Danayne consented
to return to Ireland upon Paddy undertaking to pay
her passage back to the man who had the most right
to her.
