WALKER V. WALKER.

This was a suit for divorce, originally brought by the wife
against the husband, on the ground of cruelty, which was
responded to on the part of the husband by a charge of
adultery. Upon an allegation of faculties, and the answers
to it, the Court had formerly considered Mrs. Walker en-
titled to be alimented at the rate of fifty-two guineas a-year.
Mr. Walker had subsequently transferred his property to
trustees, for the purpose of paying to certain of his credi-

tors, six shillings in the pound ; but was, however, thrown
into prison at the suit of a creditor who did not consent to
this, conveyance, and remained there from the 7th of
April to the Ist of June last, when he was liberated under
the Insolvent Debtors' Act. Previous to this he had been
pronounced in contempt by this Court, for refusing to paY
alimony and costs which it had decreed. Mr. Walker's
prayer now. was tl:at he ►night be permitted to sue in forma

laupera. •
1)r. ADDAMS opposed the prayer,,but was interrupted by

The Coua•r, who suggested that before any .steps were
taken it was necessary that Mr. Walker sAuld be purged
of th,- contempt in which he now stood with n2spect to the
Court.
This was accordingly effected by his averring that all his
property was disposed of under the provisions of the In-
solvent Debtors' Act.

Dr. ADDAMS proceeded—From the affidavit of the wife
and others, w::o were at least fully as worthy of credit as
the husband and those who had sworn with him, it waS
sufficiently evident that not only was I\ir. Walker in the
receipt of the profits of one of the best stands in the Pan-
theon Bazaar, but that, even were he otherwise without
property, his skill as a watchmaker would procure him a
maintenance sufficient to prevent the Court from admitting

him as a pauper.
De. PHILLIMORE urged that
,Mr.. Walker's solemn affi-
davit, with those of several other creditable persons, was
sufficient to satisfy the Court that he bad no interest what-
ever in the stand at the Pantheon Bazaar.

Dr. LusitiNoToN said that the sole question to deter-
mine was, whether Mr. Walker could be admitted a pauper
in this suit. It would not be necessary for the Court to
go into the minute circumstances to decide Whether the
stand at the Pantheon Bazaar belonged to Mr. Walker or
to the person whose name appeared there, because he was
quite satisfied that Mr. Walker might procure, by labouring
in ,his trade, sufficient property to disentitle him from suing
as a pauper. Folio Wing the principle laid down by his pre-
decessors in these cases, where the wife naturally looked for
maintenance from the husband until her guilt had been de-
cided, he considered that he should be violating the law by
admitting Mr. Walker as a pauper ; but of course with
respect to any future circumstances in the case he should
defer giving any opinion.

Mr. Waikees prayer was accordingly rejected.

POLICE IN TELLIGENCE.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

Yesterday an individual of singular appearance was
brought before Mr. DYER, charged with having created a
disturbance at St. James's Palace. The defendant went to
the Palace the previous night and demanded admittance►
asserting that he was a so❑ of the late King, and conse-
quently that his present Majesty King William was his
uncle. It was found necessary, on account of his pertina-
city, to give him into the custody of the police. At the
station-house he gave his name George Frederick Augustus
Guelph, and persisted in asserting his relationship to
Royalty.
Mr. DYER directed that the defendant should be de-
tained, and that some inquiries should be made respecting
him of a boot-maker in Fleet-street, for whom he had lately
worked.

LAMBETH - STREET.
Yesterday William Jourdan, Thomas Sullivan, and
Jeremiah Sullivan, three fashionably-dressed young wee*
who are members of the " swell mob," were placed within
the felons' bar, before Mr. WALKER, charged, two of thee'
with being concerned in the extensive robbery at the Cus
tom House, in November 1834, and stealing nearly 6,000 h
in bank notes and gold. The same two prisoners will be
also charged with being concerned in breaking into the
warehouse of Messrs. Hall and Co., on the Custom House
quay, in February last, and stealing therefrom jewels to the
amount of upwards of 7,0001. belonging to a foreign Conn',
tess, which were deposited there, beside a quantity 01
watches and other property.
James Lea, the officer, for the last two months, had bee°
engaged almost night and day in tracing out the prisoners
Thomas Sullivan and William Jourdan from one place to
another, and on that morning he succeeded in apprehend,
ing them at the Red Lion public-house in King-street,
Bloomsbury, where they had been lodging since the Friday
before. Having, after much difficulty, •ascertained to his
satisfaction that they were the parties who had committed
the extensive robbery at the Custom House on the night of
the 28th of November, 1834, he (Lea) found out their re-
sidence in the neighbourhood of Kensington, but they
having by some means ascertained that he was on the look
out for them, at once left the neighbourhood in the latter
end of the week, and since that time the furniture in their
houses was removed piecemeal to different places, but by
closely watching the movements of the parties, he (Lea)
found that they went occasionally to the Red Lion public-
house in King-street, Bloomsbury. This circumstance in-
duced him to call at that house, and from inquiries he had
made, he learned that two gentlemen had been stopping
there since Friday last, whose description answered pre'
cisely that of the persons whom he was in pursuit of. Ne
first found the prisoner Sullivan, and while in the act of
handcuffing him, Jourdan entered the house, and he secured
him also. The third prisoner, Jeremiah Sullivan, who Wes
the brother of Thomas Sullivan, came to the house as be
was about to remove the prisoners to this Office, and having
known him to be actively engaged in removing property
from both the other prisoners' previous residences, he felt it
to be his duty to take him into custody.
In reply to a question from Mr. WALKER, Lea had 110
reason to suspect the third prisoner of being concerned is
the Custom-house or any other robbery.
Mr. WALKER observed that under these circumstances be
could not detain the prisoner Jeremiah Sullivan, and be was
in consequence discharged.
The other prisoners—by the recommendation of Mr'
Humphries, who attended as their Solicitor—refused saying
anything in their defence, and they were remanded for one
week.

When the prisoners were removed from the bar to the
strong room, Lea exhibited to the Magistrates two despe-
rate weapons, generally called " life-preservers," which he
found in two trunks belonging to the prisoners. He ale°
found on the person of Jourdan a receipt for 1001., lodged
in the banking-house of Messrs. Weston and Young, datede
the 12th of October ; and on Sullivan two blank checks 01
the banking-house of Messrs. Glynn, Halifax, Mills, 110'
Co. After Lea had handcuffed the prisoner Sullivan, the
latter told him that he should never have done so had be
had a pistol in his possession, as he would certainly .have
shot him,first. •
It was stated that the prisoners have returned to this
country within the last two years from America, with $
most extensive booty, having succeeded while there je
breaking into two or three banking-houses, besides various
private houses and public offices. They are also suspected,
of being concerned since their return in various other jevre
robberies in different parts of the metropolis.
