MAR YLEB ONE.

Saturday Mrs. Wright, supported by Miss Biddy Ha-
nagan, Torn Connors, one of the Ha) eses (of the tender
sex), ould Phil Moriarty, who brought home one leg and
a hundred fights from the Peninshu/a, and a host of
oaers, was placed on the right, while Mrs. Moxon, backed
with an equally formidable array, took her stand on the
left. Mrs. Moxon was the complainant, and though
standing on the left, yet, as complainant, as well as by
" the rule of the road," " she was sure to be right ;" ac-
cordingly, after the necessary oath was administered, dur-
ing which the Wright party bid her " be sure to kiss the
book well," no doubt being of opinion that the quantity
of truth to be told is measured by the heartiness of the
kiss,—" On Winsday mornin' last," began hire. Moxon
—Naughton it ought to be written, but the warrant of-
ficer thought, in his Saxon wisdom, he was improving it
it into Moxon—" On Winsday mornin' last," began
Mrs. Moxon, smoothing down her neat white apron, and
dropping her very lowest, " as I was a standin' at my own
doore, that woman, whatever she plases to call herself—"
" Phase to call myself !" roared hire. Wright, " an'
a'nt I a married woman as well as you are, a'ut I ?" Here
the gentle creature thrust across the bar a piece of paper,
which, from being doubled and opened, and doubled again
so often, the creases had been worn away, and imposed
upon its possessor the necessity of starching a piece of new
paper on the back—" Here's my sartificatt, your Rev'rince,
an' see if I call myself ' whatever she phases.'"
Mr. Hos Kans assured her he entertained no doubt of
her legal claim to the name of Wright, and therefore de-
declined examining her " letters of marque," requesting
Mrs. Moxon tojproceed, which she, nothing loath, did ac
cordingly.
" As I was a Biqa, my Lord, I was a standin' at my
own doore. Misthress Wright, if she plases, cum out of
her doore an' challenged me to fight ; hut I tould her I
was no fighter." ' Hit her, you —,' cried out her hus-
band (if she plases), putting his arms round her waist, an'
pushes her foiled, ate' swore if she didn't hit me he'd hit
her. So she hot me sure enough, an' tore the cap off my
head. Here it is, your Wurchip; and then she laid hold
of a curry-comb, an ' carded' me from top to toe, an'—
" Quite enough," said Mr. Ilosuris, who seemed to
dread the length of Mrs. Aloxon's last period ; " an as-
sault has been committed—what has Mrs. Wright to say."
Mrs. Wright thrust forward a handful of black matted
hair, and held it in the Magistrate's view for some mi-
nutes, in profound silence. The effect was dramatic
" Hear my witnesses," exclaimed Mr. Moxon."
" And hear my witnesses," vociferated the lady on the
left ; and, shaking the handful of black lairs, she repeated,
" Here's my witnesses."
Mrs. Moxor.'s witnesses were heard, and, according to
their testimony, not a more injured, quiet, peac ful, for-
bearing creature ever left the Emerald to mourn for her
absence.
A host was produced on the other side, and, according
to their testimony, a more noxious, disorderly, un-peace-
able, overbearing being never emigrated from " the gem."
Mr. HOSKINS said he had no doubt (nor had any one
else) that there were faults on bath sides, and, to pre-
vent "carding," as well as hair-drawing, for the next
twelve months, ordered Messieurs Moxon and Wright to
enter into their recognizances for the orderly and peaceable
demeanour of their respective gentle halves.
A young woman, by no means destitute of personal
attractions, applied to Mr. Hosxuss for his assistance, in
enabling her to recover a sum of money of which she had
been defrauded by a young man, under pretence of marry-
ing her.
The young woman said she lived servant in a gentle-
man's family, where she became acquainted with a young
man, who, after a due course of courtship, proposed mar-
riage to her, and she accepted the offer. She had saved
some money, which, after the banns had been published,
she placed in his hands, and quitted her station to prepare
for the approaching event. The day at length arrived
which was to crown her hopes, but, to her inexpressible
astonishment, her expected •to-be lord and master never
made his appearance. The sun went down without light-
ing him to her presence, and she set off to make inquiries
respecting him, in the course of which she received the
heart-rending intelligence that, on the very morning when
he was to have pledged his faith to her, he led to the altar
a more favoured sweetheart ! She had an interview with
him, and applied for at least the restoration of her money ;
but every application was fruitless, and she was unable to
get back a shilling of it. What added considerably to his
perfidy was, that he threw out insinuations injurious to her
character.
Mr. HOSKINS commiserated the poor girl very much,
and said there could be but one opinion entertained re-
specting the fellow's conduct ; but he regretted the trans-
action was one with which a Magistrate could not interfere.

The Duchess of CAMBRIDGE and the Prin-
cess AUGUSTA of Cambridge will take their departure from
this country immediately after the Coronation.

It is generally understood that the Rev. and
Right Hon. Lord AUGUSTUS FITZCIADENCE will be the
new Irish Bishop, in the room of Dr. PoNsoNnv, to be
promoted.

It is stated that the Right Hon. Lord FRE.
DERAcic FITZCLARENCE is to be appointed Colonel-Coin.
mandant of one of the Regiments of the Life Guards.

Earl GREY (we understand) instantly upon
hearing of the death of the Archbishop of DunuN, wrote
to our venerable Bishop, offering to recommend his Lord-
ship to that see. The compliment was penned in the
mist elegant and flattering manner, and though declined,
is duly appreciated by the worthy Bishop, as we are sure
it will be also by the puhlic.—Norwich Mercury.

It consequence of so many Members having
left town, or otherwise absented themselves, it ba.s been
found difficult to muster more than half the House upon
any of the recent divisions. The consequence, in all pro-
bability, will be a peremptory call of the House previous
to the third reading of the Reform Bill.

The new State Paper Office in St. James's
Park, is in a considerable state of forwardness, and is ex-
pected to be ready for the reception of its destined con-
tents by the end of the year.

The melancholy death of the Rev. C. SEMPLE,
of Goldington, as mentioned in our last, has been followed,
we regret to state, by another catastrophe equally dreadful.
His brother was so powerfully affected by the shocking
event, that in a fit of distraction he also put a period to
his existence.—Bedford Gazette.
A correspondent says it is to be hoped that
the polls of the two Dublin elections will be forthwith pub-
lished, that it may he seen who the consistent people are
who turned the balance upon each occasion.
THE HARVEST.—The present harvest is un-
usually early— at least a fortnight earlier than in average
years, and we have been accustomed to see the clops
pretty much in the same state in the mi Idle of September,
as that which they have now attained towards the close of
the month of August. The harvest will this year be over
before the appearance of the harvest moon. In the southern
counties, the crops have been very generally secured in
excellent condition, and in the north another fortnight of
fine weather would leave in the fields little more than a
tithe of the white corn. During the three first days of
the present week a great deal of corn was cut, and not a
little secured, but since that time the weather has been
less far ourable.—Leeds Mercury.
