BOW.STIIRET.—On Saturday a case come on to be
heard before IVIr. GRA HAM,- which is extremely
.tO.
be lamented, as it was a dispute between man and
wife, 'Mr. and Ni rs. W. of Mary bone, very respect-
able, and also th it c arnetlio.ns.. The circumstances
that gave to it are rather of an extraordinary na-
ture, and conttary to the general order of things, as -
Mrs. W. was the prisoner, and both were between
fifty and sixty years of age,
Mr. W: obtained a peace warrant against his wife,
Wherein he charged- her with having made use of the
most horrid and threatening language, and that he
was in danger of his life from her. He instructed
Lack, who t. cnt to execete the warrant, to so very
early in the morning: he accordingly went about
seven o'clock, and found, Mrs. W: in -bed: He
communicated to her his business)--she desired
him to wait until she had dressed herself, which of
course he agreed to. Atter waiting a considerable
time in an adjoining room, he inge4red if she was
nearly ready. She replied that she was dressed, but
peremptorily said she world not go *ith him and
defied him' to open her bed4oom doer. He was
not, however, intimidated at her threat, and tried
to fora the door open, but could not succeed . till
he. procured a poker and broke it open. 'He then
got her to the Office, accompanied by her two
daughters by a former husband. Mr.: W. .greed
with the officer to be there at twelve o'clock to nuke
good hid-charge.
Mr. W. not appearing for some time after the ap-
pointed lime, Mr. GRAHAM desired to see OR in-
formation, and found it contained charges of such a
violent tied threatening nature that he did nut think
it:right to discharge' Mrs. W.; but said he would
only detain her till two o'clock, at .which time he
allowed her to go home, but ordered her to be at
the Office .at seven o'clock in the evening, in case
business should have prevented Mr. W. from at-
tending. At that time both parties attended, and
Mr. W. renewed his charges upon' oath of being in
danger of his lite from his wife, Sec..
Mrs. W. in her defence, said, that it was (mire
few days since that she liad.hir husband before a Ma-

gistrate, at the Police Office in Merlborough-street,
and exhibited ,atticles of the peace against him,
Itt!: having threatened and attempted to push a stick
down her throat, and that she had not seen her hut-_
band since last Tuesday, when they were at Math-
borough-street Office, and therefore conitier6d.Oe
present charge against her as merely a nlinceuvtir to
get her out of the house, as while she was in cus-
tody at the OtHce, during the morning,' 114 husband
had taken a broker into the house, and' had stild all
the goods.
Mr. GRAHAM addressed them feelingly, and la-
mented that two people, from their situstibn in lite,
antrathanced in years, could not coduet themselves
• with fortpsarance towards each odder, and titsdet.oii
the circumstances, thought it right to dischntge the
warrant.
