WAKEFIELD, Nov. 28.
The suppfy of Wheat at'flie market this day is only mo-
derate ; the water• in the river• being high has prevented
several vessels getting up in time. - Good: New Wheat,
being comparatively scarce, has been in fair demand at an
advance of Is. to 2s. per quarter upon the rates of last
week ; there has not been much doing in Old Wheat, but
prices are rather better. Oats are dull, but there is no
material alteration in value. The Malt trade being in a
very dull state, several kilns are unemployed, and the de-
mand for Barley to-day, even of good quality, has been
very fiat, and for inferior descriptions there is no sale.
Beans are very dull sale, and prices are barely supported.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.

COURT W KING'S BENCH, Nov. 29,

WATTS V. HEAD.

This.was an action to recover compensation for an in-
jury sustained by the plaintiff, a widow, in consequence of
the defendant having driven his gig over her.
Before any evidence was gone into Mr. F. Poti.ocK,
for the defendant, proposed a reference, which the plaintiff
agreed to.

A verdict was then entered for the plaintiff, subject to a
reference.

COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, Nov. 29.

wRIGHT V. WRIGHT.

This was an action of slander brought by a daughter
against her own father, for certain slanderous expressions
he had made use of, and which she insisted were defama-
tory of her character.

The Loan CHIEF hts-rtcE, before the case was proceed-
ed in, suggested the propriety (as they were relations) of
a reference, as it could nut be otherwise than painful to the
feelings of every one that such an investigation should he
made public.

The counsel appeared to concur in opinion as to the
propriety of the suggestion, and after some consultation
the case was referred to Mr. Jusucz.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

GUILDHALL.

A REFRACTORY SPOUSE.-011 Saturday a bluff
brawny, square-built son of Neptune, whose muscular
figure would have suited a sculptor as a model for a
British tar, was charged before Alderman WAITIIMAN
with running foul of Mr. Robert Brine, chandler,
No. 83, Grub-street, Cripplegate, to the great hin-
drance of the said Mr. Brine's business, and annoy.
once of his customers.
Mr. Brine is brother-in-law to Poole, the prisoner,
both. being spliced to two daughters of the same
mother, but has been much more fortunate in his
selection of the young ladies. Whether this
has been owing to any essential difference in the dis-
position of the fair ones in question, or has arisen
from the calling of Mr. Brine enabling him to keep
a sharper look out than the poor tar, it is impossible
to say ; but since his return from- his last voyage,
Mrs. Poole has slipped her cable and parted company
altogether. In consequence of his wife's elopement,
Poole has taken up the notion that Mr. and Mrs.
Brine have been her special advisers on the occasion,
and are privy to her present place of concealment.
Under this impression he lays siege to the chandler's
counter, threatening to do him many and sundry
bodily injuries unless his rib is restored; by which
violence on the part of the prisoner the nervous
ladies of Grub-street are terrified, and deterred from
entering his shop---a shop which Mr. Brine, with a
most profound bow, begged to assure the worthy
Alderman was much frequented by the gentry in the
neighbourhood, in consequence of the very superior
character it bears for " all articles in his line."
" Do you know any thing of the prisoner's wife ?"
asked the Alderman. "I do not, upon my honour,"
responded the chandler, with great solemnity, laying
his hand upon his heart.
What would the Magistrate ask more ? This
solemn appeal to his honour on the part of the
chandler was quite conclusive; and the Alderman,
addressing Poole, observed, that his conduct was
unjustifiable.
The weather-beaten tar, whose eye glistened' with
the hard-wrung tear of bitter disappointment, enter-
ed into a history of his am able consort. She was
dear to him, he said as his heart's blood, and he
looked upon her as the sheet anchor of all his earthly
happiness. When he set out upon his last voyage,
and which. had kept him abroad for a considerable
period, he left Mrs. Poole a well.stocked shop, ten
pounds in cash, and dUring his absence regularly re-
mitted her a monthly allowance of two pound's more.
When he returned -to England he expected to "coil
up his hopes, and anchor" in the quiet of domestic
life for the test of his days ; but when he 'arrived at
home, judge- of his feelings ye who have left your
wives to go 'on a distant, voyage, to find her in that
state in which, however, " ladies wish to be who
love their lords," is a consummation not very de-
voutly to be wished by a wife to be found in on her
husband's return after a twelve months' absence.
But Poole, who seems to have a considerable share
of the milk of human kindness in hiS composition,
instead of avenging himself on his spouse's lapse
with a rope's end, only urged her to disclose the
name of " the good-natured friend" who was
thus providing a family for him in his absence, and
at length was informed that he was indebted to the
kindness of a very dear, dear friend—his own brother-
in-law !
" That's not me, your Worship," interpolated the
chandler, anxious to relieve herself from any moral
imputation ; " it is another brother-in-law of the

pt csoner's."
After this explanation from Mr. Brine, which the
countenance of the Alderman seemed to render ne-

cessary,
Poole proceeded—However obliged to his brother-
in-law, he had no intention► to support his -offspring,
and promised -to forget his consort's infidelity if she
affiliated the child on the right papa. But Mrs.
Poole wished him to consider it entirely as a family
• transaction, and stoutly refused to accede to a public
exposition of her frailty; and anticipating foul wca.
thee, she determined to slicer ce, but very prudently
laid in-, as sea-store, a twenty, round note and what-
ever other light,curgo she could stow away, leaving
the poor fellow completely wrecked in wealth:and
happiness. But,
"What was love made for if 'tis not the same
Thro4 joy and thro' sorrow, thro' glory and shame ?"
he set out in (have, and succeeded in grappling with •
her once more. She sailed in co'npany only a week,
when he again.lost sight of her; and when -he
.made
inquiries at Brine's, from the evasive answers he
received, he suspected they were acquainted with
her plaCe of concealment. •

Alderthan think you ought to
consider yourself very fortunate in getting rid of such
a worthless woman instead of pursuing her.
Poole—lf she returned now, and swore the child
to its father, I would truly forgive her.
The Alderman expressed himself -surprised that
any affection should be so strong as that of the pri-
soner's.-- Howevir, he added, after the solemn as-
surance given'by the complainant .that he knew no-
thing of her, he must not annoy him any more.
Brine urged the Alder Man to bind him over 'to
keep the peace towards him and his family.
The Alderman did not consider the case called
for so rigorous a measure as that,; therefore he
would disc4arge Poole, on receiving his promise not
to go near the complainant's house any more.
The .prisoner pledged himself not to pay Mr. Brine
another visit; after which he was discharged.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.
STEALINa BANK NOTES.—.It will be recollected
that we gave an account of a short time since of a
respectable female, of the name of ltlyhdc, applying
to Sir G. FARRANT and Sir T. Farquhar, the banker,
re-presenting the halves of bank notes, which
amounted to 1,1001., which her son, a little boy, had
found in the Haymarket in the month of June last.
In consequence of the inquiries which she had made,
but which were unsuccessful, Sir Thomas Farquhar,
on the day following her application, went to the
bank, where upon inquiry, it appeared that the notes
had been paid to Mr. Ashley, an army agent, re-
siding at No. 139, Regent-street, who, having cut
them in half, sent them by different posts, under an
official frank, to the paymaster of the 67th regiment,
lying at Bolton, in Lancashire; but the second halves
not arriving, he, upon giving the Bank of England
an indemnity, received the whole value of them on
the 4th of June. Mr. Ashley having proved that
he put in the last halves, on the 29th of May, into
the receiving house of the General Post-office, Vigo-
lane, kept by Mr. Kelly, an inquiry was instituted
by Sir Francis Feeling, as tohow the letter was stolen
from the receiving-house, and which ended by Mrs.
Myhele's son, the little boy who pretended to
have found the notes, being taken into custody, and
•from that period, namely, a few days after the ap-
plication of Mrs. Myhele to the present, several private
