CONSISTORY COURT, DOCTORS' CONSIGNS.

ADULTERY.-.--GIMEN V. GIMEN.

This was a suit of divorce, or ifeparption,
brought by Georg& Henry Green, Esq. the hug-
band, against Sarah Nisbet Green, his wile, by
reason of adultery, alleged to have been commit-
ted with Mr. George Mader. It appeared that
Mr. Green is an officer in the uemy, and that the
marriage took plane between the parties in May,
1808, at Messina in Sicily, where they cohabited
together as man and wife,, and had issue two
children, till 1810, when Mrs. Grech quitted Sicily
for Malta, and after residing there wort time, she
sailed for England, and arrived in 1811, soon after
which she became acquainted with Mr. George
Writer, and a criminal intercourse took place
between them, and they passed as mail and wife
At various lodgingi in and about town, and went
sometimes by the »ante of Mr. and Mrs. Green,
and at others by the name of Mr. and Mrs. de
Clifford. It appeared also, that 'on Mr. Green's
arrival in this country from Sicily, be brought an
action against Mr. Murder in the Common Law
Court, and obtained a verdict of small damages
only, in consequence of the wife's depraVed cha-
racter.

The fact °lndult-cry being so clettrly proved by
the evidence produced, the Learned Judge (Sir
William Scott) pronounced that the husband was
entitlad to the remedy he preyed, and accordingly
decreed the same.

COURT OF EXCrinqUER.
kettsd Of great national importanbe was yester-
day brought; forward : the. ATTORNEY GENERAL
VerSUS' WI L t.IAM CARVER; and BitowNi.ow, Bishop
of Winchester. The rinestion was, whether, cer-
tain premises; held by the defendant Carver under
the Bishop of Winchester, on. the western side.oC
the entrance to Portsinattth Harbour, • were or
were not a public nuisance, by obstructing the
Aux 40 Wilk of the tide, whereby sand bunks
Were formed; and the harbour otherwise injured:
Far the more satisfactory determination of this
question a trial at bar, before the four Barons of
the Excliequer,W4S ordered. Several witnesses were
examined,' consisting of surveyors, civil engineers,
and other professional characters., aswell as Admi-
rals Knight and Sir Roger Curtis. The opinions,
in general, bore the same !tendency, and differed
cbieHy as to the degree of injury which the harbOor
antlered, hilt all admitting the evil to a' certain
extent. The importance of the subject, ,as it mi.-
fects one of our chief naval stations, occasioned
the examinations to occupy a considerable part of
the day, and•therefore the remainder of the ctie
Was adjourned till this day.

SwINDLEtt. —•rriday morning, about eight
o'clock, a young man, about 23 vears.of age, of
rather a genteel appearance, although shabbily
dressed in a blue coat, white waistcoat, military
pantaloons, and .Wellington half-boots.,
.and of
d3IA complexion, representing himself to .be Cap-
tain WARNER, or WARRY , and a nephew of a
Member of the House of Commons, entered a
house at the West end of the town„ stating,, that
be had just arrived in London by,tbe Liverpool
coact], and wished to go to bed, which be accord-
ingly. did. He left the house dining the day, and
Jib! not return at night. On Saturday morning he
went there again, taking with him'a trunk. . On
Sunday the landlord had. reason to suspect him,
and sent his. bill .to, him, when he acknowledged
that be could not then pay, but would the next
day, but which was rt!fased. He then took him-.
self off, saying he would send the next day and
pay his bill, and in the mean time his trunk would
be good security for the debt he had contracted.
Yesterday a very disagreeable smell and smoke
was discovered to proceed from it, which 'eaused
the servants to suspect. it COOtained some com-
bustible matter,. and there being only a oord to
fasten it, the trunk was opened, when it was
found lo be filled only with horse dung,
and chalk,
