culiA to opinions that might be eetcrtained oil the sub-

Su of the comp tea exercise of these rights—ne

le rty, strd err e iing any prior legol right that
might possibly exist, there was notbies; in
human affairs that could by possibility be MI..
sidere 1 as fixers, settled, stable, and permare r.t. It
war on these grounds, the possession being so !eo.led,
that this ordinance had been framed in order to make e
future means of relieving the soultry, by tic regelar
coerce of purchase and sale, of the evils which there
feudal reaures were supposed t e it fl et. Tee Rev.
Prelate had nct made any serious attack upon the terms
in which the ordinance was framed, but he had made
an attack up in Iris Nehle Friend, rasieg that the met-
ter was set lel by contract bet wee a the seminary at Paris
and thet r t Moat-eel and beteesn the litter tied the
Commissioners. But therein be (Lord Melbourne)
apprehended that the only evidence furnished by Mr.
Buller in hi,: le,:ort was the stolen eat that there was
as fair evidence of cow e.at on t'ul part of the semi-
nary it Montreal as could be cc le.thd, not weaning
that theses re •sons were exact'y authorised to contract
on their part. If the Rev. Pretate should he induced
to effect that he seemed to hope for, end bring the
matter forward in a manner which would lead to more
decisive consequences, he (Lord Melbourne) dirt trust
that on consh.'er, tion their Lotthdlips would feel this ar-
rang; ment was the best mode in which ti c whole mat-
ter coell be settled, and that thetr Lordships would
think it their duty nonott ) advise her Uric:sty to with-
hold her assent from it. The Right Rev. P. elaee had

questions now argued were—first, whether wilt respect to the
balance of 4 3001., which had been found duc i'rom the defen-

ought to be charged with interest at the rate of 51. per cent.
The other question was with regard to the costs of the suit.
The Ma sTER, of the lioLts said there had been no wilful
misc nduct on the part of the defendant. She had only acted
upon an erroneous cons, ruction of a will, and could therefore
only be charged with interest at the rate of 4 per cent. With
respect to the costs, his Lordship could not say that she .ought
to be charged with costs, but did not think he could allow
her any.

CONSISTORY COURT, MARCH 3.
ISEAVISIDE v. HEAVISIDE.
This was a suit of divorce brought by Captain Heaviside
against his wife, on the ground of adultery.
Dr. AI'DAMS on behalf of the husband was opening the
case, when
The QUEEN'S ADVOCATE, for the wife, said that he could
not offer any opposition to the prayer of Capt. Heaviside.
The COURT thought " the less said the better," and, as it
had no doubt of the adultery, it at once pronounced for the
prayer of the husband.'
MORGAN V. MORGAN.
This was a suit of divorce, promoted by the father of Mr.
Herbert Morgan, against Elizabeth Morgan, on the ground
of adultery. The marriage was a clandestine one, the
youth bring at the time of its celebration sixteen or seven-
teen years of age, and the lady, who was about nineteen,
being the daughter of the postmistress of Ealing. As soon
as the marriage became known Mr. Herbert Morgan was
taken from school, where he was at the time, and sent to
India. The wife subsequently, as alleged, committed adultery,
and hence the present proceedings to procure a divorce. The
Court on motion permitted the father of Mr. Herbert Morgan
to commenee the suit as curator for his son, as he was a minor.
The marriage took place in April, 1837. Preliminary objec-
tions were taken to the proxy of consent sent by the son to the
father, which the Court required berore it would sign a defi.
nitire sentence, and by which the proceedings against the wife
were adopted.
The Court, after hearing Counsel on either side, reserved its
decision as to the title of the father to proceed in the case until
it had heard the cause, and pronounced its judgment on the
whole question.
Dr. HAGGARD was yesterday heard on behalf of Mrs. Mor-
gan, and
The QUEEN'S ADVOCATE in support of the divorce. In the
course of his address, he said—Abandonment by the hus-
band has never been held a bar to a suit for divorce by reason
of adultery. Even wilful desertion has not been so consi-
dered. 'lhe Learned Advocate cited Reeves v. Reeves, and
contended that w.l ul desertion, if established, was no bar to
the suit; but this was not a case of that nature, the husband, a
minor, being entirely under the guidance of his father, having
been sent out of the kingdom by his authority, and being of
himself unable to provide for his wife.
The CouRT ultimately directed the case to stand over until
the first day of next term.
