THIS DAYS MARKETS.

CORN EXCHANGE.

The leading country markets held on Saturday were but
moderately supplied with wheat ; nevertheless, all kinds
changed hands slowly, and in some instances prices were a
shade lower. There was a fair, but by no means active,
inquiry for spring corn at previous currencies. Flour was
dull.

Throughout the Continent nearly all kinds of produce
continue to support the late advance in the quotations. In
the United States both wheat and flour have sold at further
enhanced rates.

The arrivals of English grain up to our market last week
were limited. From abroad we received 2,726 qrs. of wheat,
5,045 barley, 24,262 oats, 1,704 beans, 570 peas, 7,550 lin-
seed, 18,660 rapeseed, 137 sundry seeds; 6,329 sacks and
420 brls. of flour.

The arrivals of wheat fresh up to-day from Essex were
limited ; from Kent only moderate. Notwithstanding that
the show of samples of both red and white was small, the
demand for all kinds was heavy in the extreme ; indeed, so
little business was transacted that the quotations were
almost nominal. However, we may call the prices from
3s to 4s per qr lower than on Monday last.
There was a full average supply of foreign wheat on offer
for the time of year. The sales were wholly confined to
retail parcels, at about 2s per quarter decline when com-
pared with last week.
In floating cargoes, off Falmouth, scarcely any business
was done.
Fine samples if barley realised previous quotations ; but
all other kinds moved off heavily at barely late rates.
Malt changed hands slowly at last week's currency.
Good sound oats sold at full prices, but damp parcels
wore lower to purchase.
Beans were a slow sale, at last week's currency.
The few peas in the market realised previous rates.
The flour trade was very dull, and country markets were
a shade lower to purchase.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS DAY.)

COURT OF DIVORCE.

(Before Lord Campbell, Baron Martin, and Sir Cresswell
Creswell.)
STUDY V. STUDY.

The question in dispute was, whether the documents and
evidence produced supported the decree of the Judge Ordi-
nary, decreeing divorce. This was a petition by the wife
for divorce against the husband for adultery with Jean
Murdoch.
Mr. Macaulay, Q.C., appeared for the husband, and
supported the appeal. The learned counsel contended
that the agreement was entered into by the parties in
the knowledge of the adultery, and that it was binding
on the wife. By that agreement it was declared
that if she did not fulfil the agreement he was to have his
control over her as her husband, on the resumption of his
marital authority over her, whatever his way of living
might be. He submitted that her husband, Major Study,
was entitled to resume his marital rights unless she made
out a new case of adultery against him.
Their lordships were of opinion that the agreement must
be construed in connection with the evidence produced in
the cause.
Mr. Macaulay, Q.C., referred to the 'case of " Barker
v. Barker, 2 Evans, p. 285," on this point, and proposed to
examine and cross-examine the respondent on the subject,
and the court below ought not to have pronounced the
decree appealed from before taking that evidence, as well as
to examine the petitioner on this point.
Dr. Spinks, Q C., followed on the same side, and said
that under the Act of Parliament the Court were bound to
follow as nearly as possible the practice of the Court of
Arches.
Lord Campbell thought there must be a difference be-
tween facts and presumptions.
Dr. Spinks contended that, according to the true con-

struction of the agreement, he was to have control over her
whatever manner of life he led. It amounted to leave and
licence, and it was for the wife to select that presumption
according to the 43d and 46th sections of the act to submit
to be examined and cross-examined on the case.

Their Lordships affirmed the decision of the Judge
Ordinary, with costs.

HEARNE V. HEARNE.

This was a petition by the wife against the husband for
divorce, for adultery with a woman of the name of Bustal
—desertion and cruelty.

Mrs. Margaret Mere, Princes-street, 'Westminster, was
present at the marriage of the parties on the 3d August,
1854.

Mr. Bethel was present in his shop in the City when the
petitioner called on him for some money. He said he had
none and struck her. The woman Bustal was in the kit-
chen at the time. The parties lived in Church-lane, and I
saw the petitioner after she left him. He allowed her ss.
per week for a short time.

Henrietta Catline—l live in Barclay-street, St. Jonn' s-lane.
Knew her living in Judd-street since 1856. She supported
herself by her needle. Do not know anything about
her habits, but believe she gets her living honestly and
respectably.

Richard Fisher, 8, Red Lion-street, Holborn. On 23d
December, 1857, let his house No. 4, Holborn, to Mrs.
Hearne and her husband—the respondent and co-respondent
(Eustal) in this case. They left on 27th October, 1858.
Was shown the petitioner, Mrs. Hearne—she is a different
woman from the Mrs. Hearne that Mr. Hearne then lived
with in his house. She had a child with her then.

John Conan, salesman, Covent-garden market, knew the
parties when they lived in Church-place. She left that
place. She is a different person from the co-respondent.
Their lordships, under the particular circumstances of
the case, decreed judicial separation.
