Their Lordships sat to-day to hear appeals. The Peers
present were the Lord Chancellor, Lord Brougham, and
Lord Campbell.

WATERS V. GROOM.

The arguments in this appeal occupied their Lordships the
whole day, and the further consideration was postponed till
Monday.

GONSISTORY COURT, Feb. 14.

Dr. Daubeney sat for the Learned Judge (who was in at-
tendance at the Judicial Commitee of the Privy Council),
and disposed of assignations. In the case of "Taylor v. Tay-
lor," noticed last session, sentence was signed. The case
referred to alleged adultery committed by Mr. John C. Taylor
with Emily Greenwood, and on which account a divorce was
prayed for by the wife, Mrs. Ann Taylor. The parties were
married on the 18th of July, 1831, and cohabited together
till May 27, 1842, when Mr. Taylor eloped with Emily
Greenwood, and proceeded to New York. By the marriage
with Mrs. Taylor the issue was four children. The suit was
in poenam, there being no appearance for Mr. Taylor.
