LAW INTELLIGENCE—This Day.

COURT OF DIVORCE.

(Before the Right lion. Sir J. P. Wilde, Judge
Ordinary.)
STEPHENS V. STEPHENS AND STANLEY.

This was a suit instituted by the husband to ob-
tain a dissolution of marriage on the ground of the
wife.'s adultery.

Mr. Thomas appeared for the petitioner, but
neither the respondent nor co-respondent put in any
appearance.

It will be remembered that the case was
partly heard about a month ago, when
the case was postponed on account of
the want of identification of the respondent.
The parties had been married several years. The
husband, being a respectable working man, had the
care of an engine in a large manufactory in Bir-
mingham. The wife, it appeared, gave way to
habits of intoxication, and subsequently left her
husband's house and pursued a career of infamy.
She was seen by a number of persons associating
with men, and was known to have resided in disre-
putable houses.

Mr. Thomas said that he now proposed to call
two witnesses who knew the respondent, and one of
them the actual person who served the citation.
Anne Stephens said that she knew Rosanna Anne
Stephens as her sister-iu-law, and that she went to
see her with William Walford, the clerk to the
petitioner's solicitor. They went to No. 2, London
Prentice-street. She saw Mrs. Stephens, her sister-
in-law, there. She was pointed out to her by Mrs.
Walford.

Mr. Thomas said that he would now recall Mr.
Walford.

Mr. Walford said that he went on the 16th
February with the witness to London Prentice-
street for the purpose of identifying Mrs. Stephens.
They saw the person upon whom he had served
the citation.

Sir James Wilde—l do not see that you have
proved the adultery. The evidence of the witnesses
is that she lived at a certain house in Birmingham,
and that they had seen men visit her there.

Mr. Thomas—But they identified her in the pre-
sence of Walford.

Sir J. Wilde—lt is so. (To the witness)— lie
went with you, did he not?
Witness—lie did so.
Sir J. Wilde—Then you can take a decree nisi.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE—This Day.

BOW-STREET.

ROBBING AN M.P.—John White was placed at
the bar charged withstealiug a pocket-handkerchief,
the property of Colonel Wilson Patten, M.P.
Mr. Geo. Wells, gentleman, residing at 12, North-
sireet, Westminster, said he was riding in a cab this
morning through the Strand, and when near Cecil-
street he saw the prisoner walk up behind a gentle-
man and put his band into his pocket and take
from it a handkerchief. Ile (witness) ha_
mediately stopped the cab, got out, and having in-
formed the gentleman of the robbery, he (witness)
went after the thief. Upon coming up with him
he dropped the handkerchief on the pavement, and
asked to be let go. A police constable coming up
he was taken into custody and charged with the
robbery.
Colonel Wilson Patten said he was passing along
the Strand this morning, when a gentleman told
him he had been robbed. The handkerchief pro-
duced was his property.
Prisoner—l stole the handkerchief, and I hope
you will settle it. I plead guilty.
Mr. Vaughan remanded the prisoner, in order
that he might be seen by the officers at the House
of Detention.

Prisoner—l am guilty—won't you dispose of the
case ? It's no use'sending me back.
Mr. Vaughan—lf you are not known I will dis-
pose of the case, but if you are you shall go for
trial.

John Fitch was charged with stealing a medical
travelling case, the property of Dr. Sedgwick.
The Doctor said the case now produced was stolen
from his carriage in Soho-square, and was worth
about five guineas.
The magistrate remanded the prisoner.

rued a fine of 55., requesting the. °fixer of the so-
ciety to see the pony properly killed.
Some time after the officer reported to the magis-
trate that the pony had been des'_royed, and that
such was its miserable ccndition that the horse-
slaughterer would only give ss. for the carcase.;

THE MARQUIS ToWNSIIEND AND JUVLNILE
IMMORALITY.—Ann Platt, a girl about 15 years of
age, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt by the Mar-
quis Towushend with begging.
The Marquis said—About ten o'clock last night,
the prisoner, with two other girls about the same
age, begged of me for money, and also accosted
me for the purpose of prostitution in Leices-
ter-square, and were very importuning. In
order to release myself from their impor-
tunities, I pretended to ring the bell at a
house, thinking they would then go away, but in-
stead of doing so one of them rung the bell herself,
which caused the keeper of the house to come out
and charge me. I walked away, and the girls fol-
lowed me and caused a little disturbance. Seeing
a constable (Godwin, 157 A R), I caught hold of
the prisoner, and the other girls ran away. The
constable acted very promptly, and took the pri-
soner to the station. I wish to state that I have
not brought the girl here for the sake of
having her punished, but to see whether
she cannot be rescues now from her
present wretched condition. I have spoken to her,
and ascertained that she is entirely without educa-
tion, and I consider it a shocking thing that girls like
the prisoner should be banded about at nights in
such a neighbourhood as Leicester-square.
Mr. Tyrwhitt—How old is she, and who does she
live with ?

Prisoner--I am 15, and live with my father and
mother.

Mr. Tyrwhitt—The best thing will be to remand
her for a week, and by that time we shall see
whether anything can be done for her.
The girl's aunt said that the mother, who was ill,
did not wish her girl sent away.

Mr. Tyrwhitt—l dare say she does not. No-
thing can be more shocking than to see a girl going
on in such a manner and being destroyed. She
will be remanded, and we will see if she cannot be
got into some institution.
