COURT. OF JUNG'S BRNCH.—(Wans MAT.)
TOO LINO V.
'rho COIN/ JUSTINS observed, that Inquiry having bun
made into a former conviction of the defendant, which was
mentiooed by his Learned Brother, Mr. Justice Bayley, it
was found that be had been convicted, in July- 1817,
of keeping a common Gambling House to No. 9, Bury
Street, St. James's, that the posies was not in the Crown
Office, and that be bad never been brought up for judg-
ment.
Mr. ADDLTNI/111 apprehend yoer Lordships will not
think it necessary to refer to that conviction, unless you be
called on to pass judgment twit.
Mr. Justice BavLsT-1 thought it my duty to state pub.
licly that I behead he had bees so convicted, and I tied
now that it was the care.
Crum JUST! ca—Mith respect to the motion for the arrest
of judgment, if yen, Mr. Solicitor General, think that you
can sustain the indictment, we shall grant a rule to show

ClOllO.
The Soucyrou Garrguat.-.My bard. I think there is
sufficient ground to support the indictment.
The rule was than directed, and the defeedaat ordered
to enter into his owe recognisance in two thousand'
pound.. to appear when ailed on to receive the judgment
of the Court.

WILSON V. WILSON.
This was a role to show cause why the verdict • obtain-
ed by the plaintiff should not be set aside and a new trial
bad.
It appeared that the plaintiff, a yews/ lady veleta* Sir
Henry- Wilso., the defendant, was residing in the fondly of
the Coantess of Sander/chef, as governess. and the defeod-
, ant. not choosing that she should be in such a situation,
offered her as asylum in his family, and proposed to her to
become a member of it. She left the service of the Countess
of Saodwyche, and resided some time in the family of Sir
Henry Wilson, when some unfortunate circumstances
occurring, it became necessary that she should remove
frost the boost. After she removed, Sir Henry Wilson
wrote several letters to her. in ono of which be offered to
give her an annuity of 2001. a year, provided her conduct
would merit ft. The annuity was not paid. and the plaintiff
brought an action to recover from the defendant, on the
ground that be had promised the annuity upon the condi-
tion of the plaintiff having left the service of the Countess
"of Sandevcbe. A special verdict was taken for the plain.
tiff for 3001. It was now contended by Mr. Littledale that
the letters produced on the trial, whiob were written in
1814, 1518, and 1816. contained no promise sufficient to
found a legal demand upon; that the plaintiff received so
premise of any kind till af ee she had left Lady Sandwycbs's
Tangly. and that any promise which appeared in the sub.
sequent letters, of as annuity of 2001., was sell and void
by the statute of (ramie, as no consideration was gives.
Mr. Guatarr, in support of the verdict, contended that
the lady had left her situation at Lady Saudwiche's, in
consequence of a promise having been held out to her of
compensation, and that though the amount of the compels•
ration was aot then settled, it was aseertaiusd at a subsequent

period.
The Court was of opinion that the evident. produced
at the trial was not sufficient to sustain the verdict. It
wits certainly a very bud case, and sash a i.e as-called on
Sir Henry Wilson to exercise his generosity towards the
plaintiff. It might be true that she bad IA Lady Sao&
wyche'a family in consequence of expectations that were
held out to her by the defendant, but that did not appear
in the trial. It was also true that is one of the defendant's
letters he described his intention of granting as annuity
to the plaintiff, but there being no consideration, that
description of his intention was sot • legal objection. He
was not legally bound to pay her 200/. a year, but enough
appestat to show that the plaintiff had a strong and hon-
ourable claim on his generosity.
TUB ZING V. KDWAID
The defendant, a Magistrate for the county of Hereford,
was found guilty of abusing his posers as a Magistrate,
by ordering into custody Probers and other
persons in the service of Thomas Austin, a miller and
corofactor, whose premises were near the dwelling house
of the defendant. Austin had occasion to cleanse the
watercourse of his mill, and remove some part of the/moon
work, an operation which the defendant thought cadets.
gored the foendation of his dwelling-boose. He opposed
the men in their work, and some violent hinging, ensuing
he ordered them into custody.
Mr. lintels was gaged in mitigation, and contended that
the defendant bad acted without any corrupt motives, from
mere warmth of temper, and a mistake as to the words of
an Act of Parliament.
The Coyne thought that a person who was incapable
of controlling the warmth of his temper, was unfit to
exercise the duties of the Magistracy, and suggested
that the defendant shoull go before the Master, and
arrange about making some compensation to the parties.
Mr. Jeans said the defendant would prefer receiving
tire judgment of the Court, and he was ordered to appear
again to-monnw.
TUB KING V. *DGBRLIT, AND lIUVAWOOD, JONIS AND CO.
Mr. Catrre stated that he had now his affidavit amended.
and that it was sworn that Edgeriry was the proprietor

stated that Mr. Wears was murdered by Thortell, but
that he also intended to murder Mr. Wood and Mr.

CURLING T. THORNTON.
Dr. DODION said that in Ibis case the Learned Counsel
on the opposite side bad contended that the facts did not
bear sufficiently to establish the rule obtained. The forts
are these s.—Col. Thornton quitted England in 1815. and
went to reed& in France. where he took up his domicile,
and resided chiefly in Paris until his death in 1823, and•
the will made by him was to all intents and purposes nail'
and cold ; he remained in France from the year 1815 till
the time of his death, except in 181 d, when be came to
this country for the purpose of business only, and returned
in a very short time ; he had applied to the King of France,
and was by him authorised to be domiciled in that country
according to its cnetoms; he remained in that country
without the intention of returning to England, and he
died a domicile in France ; and by the civil law, the law
of domicile is quite applicable to CoL Thornton's case. The
Learned Counsel cited the Ist Book of Vette!, chap. 13.1
which states, that a man does not sufficiently establish
his domicile in any foreign country, unless he makes kaolin
by express declaration, or otherwise, his intention.
to do se. Now Colonel Thornton had made known
his express declaration of such intention, hew's* he had
applied to the King of France, who granted him bis
domicile. Orotius, however, hail stated that a man hqd
only to leave one country, and take up his ab.tde In
another, for the purpose of remaining there to establish hie.
domicile in that country. Colonel Thornton's sibode in
France had sufficiently satisfied what was laid 'down in
that law ; he went to France, purchased an estate, and
agreed for the sale of it, but he never intended to leave
that kingdom. The civil rode of France said if a stranger
shall obtain the authorization of the King of France„he
shall enjoy all the,privtleges of the kingdom. This pas

a person on a visit toe foreign country might die them,
a soldier may die abroad. but that does not establish their.
domicile t here the ease was different, as Col. Thornton
west to France voluntarily. and had determierd to reside
tans dnriag his life. According to both the English and.
French laws Col. Thornton had satisfied all that was tse-
cessary ; because be bad stated to be of such a place in,
England, and such a place in France ; the Counsel on the;
ether side contended that the Colonel had two domiciles al
now he contended that a man could not have two de.l
sidles. Suppose a man have children in England, sad;
have two domiciles ; to which country would those,
children heloai ? Lord Eldon_, when Attorney Oeneral.,
on the 161 c Feb., 1794. gave his opinion in conjunctiou
with Sir Samuel Rosin', that a men could net have two;
domiciles- If a person be domiciled in Scotland sad I
Englaed; and have property in Holland, how was that
property to devolve ? The will of Col. Thorntbn said
that certain property was to revert to the heirs, bet the
questioweras, whether it want the heirs of his original

loarnedressensel sited several ether cases in support of
his argument.
Sir Joint Meow. in giving the jegtnent of the Court.
said it was a question on the Will of Colonel Thomas
Thermos, dated on the 2d October. 1819, and he died is
March. 1823. The bead of the Will described him as of
Thorovill• Royelviallse Ent Riding of Yorkshire, and

written in English, manifested according to the English
law. and was attested by three witnesses. Mr. Curling,
In April last, was sworn to the testator's will, and the
widow, Mrs. Thornton, pet in an allegation, which did
sot affect to deny the existence of the will, but suggested i
that it was not valid according to the law of France, and
whitish it was the law of Freese that ought to govern
the validity of the will. The allegation pleaded that
in IBIS Col Thornton went to Prince and determining
to reside there, became again to England to finally arrange I
his affairs, and returned to France, and fixed his residence
Is Paris. In 1816, in pursuance of his determination, he

January, 1817, by which he enjoyed all the civil rights

Marquis de Pouti ; he continued to reside in France until
March. 1823, when he died. If a person died without
making will, it was fairly to be presumed. that his
property was to be disposed of according to the law of
the place where be was domiciled; but if he made a will.
Ms Intention was to be taken from the will itself, and his
property most be so governed. Colonel Thornton was a
British subject, bat reddest in a foreign country, possessed
of the rights and privileges the country. and was there
domiciled. Many cases had been adduced to prove to Mtn
the manner of personal property being disposed of, but
not one had been shown of the disposition of property
under the present circumstances. After weighins well
the facts of the ease as they stand, he (Sir Jobs Nichol')
was decidedly of opinion that the allegation of aka.
Thornton ought to be rejected, and the disposition of the
will adhered to.
Allegation rejected accordingly.

POLICE.
MANSION Horsa.—Yesterday Elizabeth Midfield, the
wife of a notorious keeper of improper houses in Shire-
lane, was brought up for a final examinaion oo a double
charge of larceny and forgery, in having stolen 3751.
in Bank notes, and altered a forged Bauk Post Bill for

151.
The principal facts charged against the prisoner were
these :—On the first Monday in November, Mrs. Collier,
the wife of a miller at Romford, was hustled near London
Wall, and she believed there robbed of her purse that cow,
taitied 3751. in Bank notes, besides some odd money which'
she had that day received.—John Butt, shopman to Mr.l
idf
Bilis, of Ludgate Street, mercer, stated, on the first om
ll
day of November, the prisoner purchased eight yards oil
silk, in payment for which she rave him a 501. nate, and
wrote her address on the back." Mrs. Humpliri,s,2,l3nion
Street, Newington Causeway." Witness having strong
grounds for auspesting her, sent the note to the Bank,
when it was declared to be a stolen note, and he detained i
her. She said the reason she gave her name Mrs. Hum-
phries was, because her house was one for the reception of
company, and that Mrs. Humphries was a relation of hens. Mrs. Humhries, however when applied to, denied any
knowledge p
of her. The :barge of uttering the forged
Bank post bill also depended on the evidence of Mr. Ellis's
shopman, who stated that in April last the prisoner pile-
chased about sixteen yards of silk, in payment for which
she gave him a Bank post hill for 151., with an address,—
" Mrs. Peat e e Lane," and received the change. The
bill turned aie been stolen. No such pellet)
as
witness knew her when she came again to offer the
501. note.
'The 501. note was proved to be one of those stolen from
Mrs. Co '
The itor for the prosecution said the charge in the
was for knowingly uttering the bill, with a forg-
id . st. It was payable to Adam J. Little ; and it
Enid be proved that when• stolen it was anindorsed, and
when is was uttered by the prisoner it was indorsed
`rove
Little," which indorsement Mr. Little would
prove to be a forgery. The case was remanded until yes-
Aitday, to allow the evidence to be brought forward, but
when called, Mt. Little was not forthcoming.
The Loan MAYOR expressed bit surprise that Mr. Little
had not been seat for, as it was for the purpose of ohtaining
his testimony that the case was remanded.
The Solicitor begged to state, in behalf of Mr. Ellis, that
be was aware that if the prisoner was convicted of uttering
tthe forged indorsement knowingly, she would, in all probabi-
Sty, be executed. Tnough the law made it his duty to prose-
cute, yet his feelings prevented him from,couling forward when
for such an offence the life of a fellow creature would be sa-
crificed. Linder these circumstances, wavering between his
duty and his feelings, he begged to be allowed cot to press the
charge further.
Tue LORD Mayon intimated that it would he his duty to
' enforce the rosecution. --Were he to allow his feelings
to interfere in such matters, he would not then be sitting in
that chair.
Some conversation took place between the parties in the
case. Mr. Aimee, who attended for the prisoner, menlioned
that if she were convicted of the larceny, she would doubtless
no transported for Ilfe.--The Solicitor for Mr. Ellis milled
that that would be highly desirable, and that Mr. Ellis woeld,
in suc,‘ 5 CRS!, readily collie forw .r d to prosecute. Mr. Alley

Lions that the parties should bersommoned to attend sad ON
evidence against her. .
Bow STRUM—Maris Jackson, one of the most disk.
log eyrie's' who frequent the Theatres, was brought up,
charged by Mr. John Wright,* wine tier:bent to Raclin
Highway, with picking his pocket of a real Bandana, lan
night. in the boxes of Covent Garden Theatre. Mr. Wright
stated, that Miss Jacksoo and a female frietwheatne istri
the box io which he was sitting with a female friend of his
own, and annoyed him not a little by forcing her eoseet.i.
don upon him, and occasionally reclining most lovingly toi
his shoulder. it was after one of these half embraces that
she at length rose up and retired alone into the lobby, hi
a few minutes after which he missed his handkerchief. Sty-
pecting the prisoner.• as no other person had entered
box except her and her companion, he lost no time in look.
log for her in the Paphian labyrinth below, where he foer:g
her encircled with other " beauties" of the same class, amt
gave her in charge to Donaldson. This officer confirmed
the latter part of Mr. W.'s statement, eliding, however, that
though be searched the prhotter immetliatety, be failed is
discovering the " gemman's wipe" upon her person.
- Anr e Lawson, Mr. Wright's companion, also corroborated
the former part of the evidence.
Foe the defence, Anne he fair one who had
accompanied Miss Jackson to the Williams.ihestre, deposed. that a
young gentleman had been also in the same box with theif.
P4ll had quitted it apparently in a hurry. The prisoner
moreover declared, that she had only left the box to take
as " almond cake and a glass of negue," and that severe'
persons remaioted behind Mr. Wright, when she quitted bib
vicinity. In the absence of all aired evidence, there.
fore, Mr. Halls declined committing the lady, hut directed
that she should be held to bail, in case the handkerchief
might be hereafter discovered.
Kole CDT rev a SIIRVANT.-4nie Wright was broug
up in the custody of Drum:nand, a patrul, charged by
Mrs. ()sear Byrne, with robbing her of two M. notes,

missed two 101 notes lions a place in which she bad de.
