MARYLEBONE.

Yesterday, Mrs. Margaret Carr, of No. 51, Great
Titchfield-street, Marylebone, was charged by Catherine
Hyde, Marchioness Broglio Solari, with an a,sault.
The complainant occupied apartments in the house of
the defendant, and it appeared that on Wednesday the de-
fendant entered them abruptly, and demanded satisfaction
of her Ladyship respecting some expressions used by her,
which were offensive. A warm dispute ensued : the Mar-
chioness attempted to expel the defendant, and she, by re-
sisting. left the marks of her fingers upon the neck of the
Marchioness, and for this the Marchioness sought redress.
Her Ladyship was very diffuse in opening her case, and
Mrs. C Ire made her impatience evident by repeatedly in-
terrupting her. At length Mr. GRIFFITH interfered, and
desired her to hold her tongue.
A foreigner who lived opposite to the parties, heard
very much cry of murder," and saw the marks afterwards
upon the neck of the lady, but could not say how they were
occasioned.

A maid servant saw the struggle: the Marchioness tried
to force Mrs. Carr out of the room, and Mrs. Carr took
hold of her neck to prevent it.
Mr. GRIFFITH told Mrs. Carr she had no business to
enter the room of the complainant without her permission,
and she ought to have made no resistaue when she was
desired to leave it, and.she must, fled bail.

" Bail ! bail! hem ! hem !" said Mrs. Carr ; I'll go to
another place for justice She is a false deceitful woman.
I never struck her in all my life ; and as for you, Mr. Grif-
fiths, you ought not to —"
Her sentence was cut short by her friends, who hurried
her away to the clerk's office, and there became bail for her
To koep the contending parties as far apart as po,t i
the Marchioness was let out at the opposite door, and as
she went away, she told the Alagistrate that Mrs. Carr was
called " Crazy Janes among her neighbours.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.

COURT OF CHANCERY AFRIL 9.

WARD OF THE COURT.-Mr. TRESLOVE stated
that this was a petition presented by Mr. Russell,
confined in the Fleet for a breach of the order of the
Court, in running away with and marrying a Ward
of the Court. 'The petitioner prayed to be released
from confinement, and undertook to make such a set-
tlement of the lady's property as the Master should
direct.

SUGDEN, cs Counsel on behalf of the guar-
dians of the ward, was instructed to present a coun-
ter-petition. This was one of the grossest cases of
this nature which ever came under the eye of a
Court of Equity, and punishment was loudly called
for. It had been proved that the prisoner, previous
to this unfortunate alliance, was not worth a shil-
ling, and had contrived to acquaint himself with the
fact of this young lady's fortune; he had intruded
himself into a house in which this young lady was
to pEss the holidays, under pretence that he had
fallen from a coach and hurt himself. Having formed
a sort of intimacy with the mother of the young
lady, he returned to London, and placed himself
again within the rules of the Fleet Prison,
where he had formerly been residing. He then
managed to avail himself of the benefit of the
Insolvent Act, and thus, for a time, freed himself,
the young lady having, in the interval, been at
school. He then went to the house in which he
had first seen the young lady, and to which she re-
turned in the ensuing vacation. His absence was
accounted for by his stating that he had not reco-
vered from his accident, and that he had been con-
fined in consequence. After various negociations
and contrivances, with which the Court had already
been made acquainted, he persuaded the lady to
elope with him to Gretna theen. The Learned
Counsel hoped that, at least, that part of the prayer
of the prisoner's petition which asked that the lady
should visit him in the prison would not be listened
to. Surely a gaol was not the place in which the
unfortunate young lady should be suffered to be in-
troduced.

The LORD CHANCELLOR stated that be had a
perfect recollection of the facts of the case, bearing
out completely Mr. Sugden's statement. The set-
tlement should be immediately prepared ; and, when
executed, he would consider what coarse ought to
be pursued towards the prisoner. As to the inter-
course with the wife, his Lordship tkought he had
no right to controul it. It was incumbent on the
Court to prevent such intercourse while the validity,
of the marriage was in question; but now the
ter had reported that it had been duly celebrated,
the power of the Court had ceased.
The case was ordered to stand over until Saturday.
