LAW INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS DAY.)

VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT.

The Court was occupied the greater part of the morning
in discussing the propriety of having several motions, in
Brown v. De Tastet, heard by his Honour.
The Vicit CHANCELLOR directed that they should be
made before the Lord Chancellor.

COURT OF KING'S BENCH.
THE KING V. MILEGILNE, MILLS, AND CLEVERLY.

Mr. HILL this morning appeared for 'the defendants,
who were before the Court yesterday for judgment, and
said, that they had acceded to the suggestion of the Court
to go before the Master, in consequence of which their
Lordships should hear nothing further about the matter.
Lord TENTERDEN said, the Court were of opinion that
the assignees had acted with great propriety in bringing
the present case under the notice of the Court. He was
afraid the practice of withdrawing goods on the eve of
bankruptcy, and of giving an undue preference to favourite
creditors, prevailed too often ; but this was the first in-
stance in his recollection that the question was brought in
a criminal form before the Court. The conduct of Mills
in this case appeared as favourable as in such a case could
be imagined. He was not a general creditor of Cleverly's;
he had merely pledged his credit in support of the
business ' - and, inasmuch as he had paid the bills
to which he had become a party, the creditors
had to a certain, though not to the full extent, profited by
these payments. For these reasons the Court was not un-
willing that the case should go before the Master ; but he
wished the public distinctly to, understand, that such con-
duct was a great offence against the law; and that any
person who should hereafter be convicted of a similar
offence would not escape the judgment of the Court. His
Lordship strongly censured the conduct of attornies in
mixing themselves up in these transactions; instead of
their professional character being an excuse for them, he
said, it only aggravated their offence, because they ought
to know the illegality of such conduct, and should inform
those who consulted them of its being so.

COURT OF EXCHEQUER:
The Court were engaged on the Special Paper all the
morning, but nothing of public interest transpired.

CONSISTORY COURT.
BRAY V. BRAY.

This was a suit instituted by the wife against the hus-
band for a divorce, by reason of cruelty. The case now
came before the Court upon the admission of the libel.
It appeared that the parties were married in April, 1825,
under very peculiar circumstances, the wife being then in
a very delicate state of health, and the husband agreeing
that they should reside with Mrs. Malcomb (Mrs. Bray's
mother), and should travel for the benefit of Mrs. Bray's
health. The alleged cruelty was stated to have commenced
about two months after the marriage, and comprehended se-
veral distinct charges of personal violence, as well as other
insults and indignities of a most aggravated character.
After living a short time at Clifton, the parties came to re-
side at Brompton-row, Brompton, where it was alleged
Mr. Bray renewed the system of cruelty and vexations
which he had practiced, and continued the same until the
-sepamt;.n oPthe abosate year and ar ha)/ after their
marriage. The libel was admitted, but the Judge suggested
certain alterations and amendments.
