ARCHES'-COURT', JUNE 12.

SULLIVAN (BY HIS GUARDIAN SULLIVAN) AGAINST
OLDAGRR, FALSELY CALLING HERSELF SULLIVAN.

This was a case of nullity of matrisg,e, appealed
from the sentence of the Consistorial Court. The
tacos, as pleaded in the former proceedings in the.
Court below, and the eloquent judgment of Sir
William Scott on that occasion, must be In the
memory of all our readers. It may he proper to
mentibn, pet haps, that this cause arises out of
the tuart•age 'of John Augustus Sullivan, Esq.
a minor, son of the Right Honourable Mr. Sulli-
van, with Miss Maria Oldacre, the daughter of Mr.
OldriCre, huntsman to Mr. Sullivan, and also a
minor at that time. It. teat -this day very (wily
argued before Sir John Nicholl, as Judge of the.
Arches'-conrti the Learned Counsel confining
themselves to the tact of the publication of banns
as undue or oth-erwise. it appeared that the Ltttly
was the illegitimate daughter of Mrs. Oldacre,
before her marriage with Mr. Oldacre, and that she
was-never known by-any other risme Maria Old
acre The ,banns, however, were proclaimed as be—
tween Mr. John Augustus-Sullivan and Marialiolmes
Oldacre. . On the part c)f that person it was con,
tended, by her Learned Counsel, that the in-ertiort
of the word " lioltnes,*'• which was her mother's
maiden name, was determined upon by the parties,
front a Tear of being incorrect : so tar were they
from wishing to destroy her identity, which was'
the " fraud and concealment" contemplated by
the Marriage Act, that they wished to give bee
the most particular description in their power ;
and in aoldition to the name, -which, as kin illegi
;inmate child, she had acquired by repute, they
gave her that of the mother in the instructions
for publication of •the bans. After beat inn the
opposite Counsel in reply, the Learned Judge
exui esaed his intention of giving sentence next
Court day.—( Times)

THE WEAVERS,

(From The Carlis(e7Patelot of Jun? 12.)

During the week, various meetings have been.
held,on the Sands. Several tnannfactnrets Davin;;
agreed to give an advance of wages of about six-
pence per cut below the demand'hefore published
in this Paper, it was Test)lced at these ineetities--.
that the work taken from the looms at the com-
mencement of the ttirn-out, shouitt he completed
and sent home ;, that' as many as could get work
at the -advanced price should accept of it ; anti.
that the remlinder should leave the to%rn in search'.
of employment else, here. ,i)nd the anAjority pre-.
sent-took an o,ttli that tha y vrOnld not ,veolt tot
unv matmfactnrer iu CoMberland un,!er the r
of wages given by the firms above tat
Thus stands the matter at preseao—holy n•
complete accommodation will take pla,.r. it

Many of the lea,lers, regard to the

to submit to it) despight of the sufferings of s:drvT
ing wives and families. The chance of
employment in other quarters is a forlorn I,
indeed ;. for it appears that work is generally set y
scarce, and wages are even lower in some towns
than.they were in CalLsle previous to the present
demand.
