CONSISTORY COURT, I. 2111 DAY, JAN 30.

vim:am e. wILDCY.
Dr. LusutleovoN stated that this was a cause of separation
and divorce promoted by Wm. Wildey, Esq., against Hannah
Augusta Wildey, his wife, by reason of her adultery. The
marriage between the parties was pleaded to have taken place
In the month of April, ISI4, and the parties lived end cohabited
together, without interruption for any considerable length of
time, until the month of Oct., 1521. Capt. Wildey had formerly
been in the army ; but he had retired from it for a time, and
subSequently re-entered the regiment of foot (the 19th) to which
lie had before been attached as paymaster. In October, 18d1,
this regiment, which was then stationed at Weeding, in North.
amptonshire, received orders to proceed to Ireland with all
possible despatch. Captain Wildey was under the necessity of
accompanying it, and from the evidence of Webb, a female set•
vent, and others, it appeared that the last time the Captain and
his lady were living together, before his departure, was out the
21st of Oct. 1821. in the Alpha cottages. Capt. Wildey remain•
ed in Ireland until the month of May, 18-2-2 ; and this would be
proved by those who were resident with him in that evuatry.Si•
toiler testimony would establish the fact of ?drsAV.'s continued
residence in London during the interval, and consequently
no interview could have taken place in the time between
the two parties. In May, 1822, Captain Wildey returned,
and found that Mrs. Wildey had quitted his house, and
was residing with her mother in Upper Baker-street,
Marylebone. In the month of September following, a dif-
ference of a serious nature took place between them, some
suspicion having been excited in his mind that Mrs.
Wildey had not conducted herself with propriety. They
continued to reside in the same house ; hut no farther in-
tirrourse:took place between them, nor had taken place
front the middle of July preceding. On the Ist of Sep-
tember Mr. Wildey went down into Northamptonshire to
shoot, and returned on the sth. On the sth Mr. Hallett,
of Spring-gardens, army agent, having accidentally seen
Mrs. tVildey, that day, congratulated the Captain on the
approaching increase of his family. Captain Wildey tes-
tified entire incredulity and astonishment on this point; but
upon the representations of Mr. Hallett, lie resolved to
watch her more narrowly, and consulted with his solicitor
and friends what course it would be most advisable for
Lim to take. They recommended him to watch her, which
lie accordingly did, and on the evening of the 9th of Sep-
tember, she was observed to leave her mother's house in
company with her brother. They proceeded into Quebee-
street, and called a coach ; but finding that they were ob-
served, they dismissed the coach, and returned to the house.
In the evening, however, Mrs. Wildey managed effectually
to elope from her husband, for whom she left the following
watt—
" Wildey,—As you told me some time ago that we had
better part, 1 tike this opportunity of doing so. You, no
doubt, will not be sorry fur it. Take care, I entreat you,
of my child. It is fond of you. Don't leave it much to the
the care of servants. You need not fear of my tunning
bills in your name, when 1 have left you. With prayers
for your's and my child's happiness,) remain your truly un•
happy wife, " H. A. WILDET.
Nobody knows of my leaving you, but your going so
soon out of town is the cause."
The Leartted Counsel then continued, that there was evi-
dence in the cause to show that Mrs. Wildey, on the 13th
of September, under a feigned name, and at lodgings in
Sloane-street, was deLvereil of a full grown female child.
As it could not be the child of .11r. Walley, the case of her
adultery was therefore clear. The adulterer had never been
discovered by the Captain. Toe sort of defence which the
Learned Gentleman on the other side would set up, would
doubtless he scch a slumbering over his wrong—suck a
condonation of the offence -•or such a negligence on his
his onn part in instituting proceedings—as in Captain
that that genticin.:n ought not to be allowed the
remedy lie prayed for. But the evidence would fully prove
that there had been GO such condonation; that Captain
tw'ililey had, without any unnecessary delay. and
as soon as he was sufficiently possessed cf Gets, in-
stitutril proceedings; and was, therefore, well entitled
to a divorce. It was true that he never suspected her
pregnancy till September; but that this was the fact was
fully established.
'flee evidence having been read, and the argument of
counsel on both sides heard,
Sir CHRISTOPHER RortiN sole said he would take time to
I +llllllare the evidence and arguments of counsel, and give
his iii.lgnient at a future day.

cian at the corner of Brownlee, Street, Holborn, and he

dimensions as the plate glass, could have been put in for thirty
Mr. Mstrnixs, for the defence, contended that hi* client
was only liable to the latter sum, and that the plaintiff must
pso up with the loss occasioned by his preferring plate to coin•
4/011 glass.
The J az were of the same opi aims, and found a verdict for
the plaintiff—Damages 305., only giving him the price of com-

INSOLVENT DEBToits' coutt.r.—rni DA Y.

6,:orge Taylor and his sots, Clement Whitaker Toy!nr,
who had been before the Court some Ills'e acts, were this
stir hronght up in order tls.st their c.t.e might he finally
to;si 1. The opposing creditor was a Dr. Duncan, who
keeps a school at Hampstead, awl with whom the elder
insolvent incurred a debt to the amount of :j/41/. for the
edaesssion of his sons. At the time when he was brought
up to obtain his discharge he was opposed on the ground
that this debt had been incurred under fraudulent pre-
tences, the father having given bills in Isis own name and
that of his son. and having represented th,st he was pus-
sussed of an estate near Sevenoalis, in Kent, which estate,
when sold, would be sufficient to cover the bills. It ap-
peared, however, that the parties Lad no interest in this
estate that interest having long before been disposed
of. When the elder insolvent appeared last before the
Court, he was remanded, in order to enable him to give
a satisfactory account of the interest he poseessed in this
estate.
Dr. Duncan again appeared in Court, and stated, as be
Lad done before, that he would not have given the long
credit he had done to the insolvent were it not fur the re-
presentations made to bias respecting the interest which
George Taylor pretended he bad in the estate. Letters
were then produced, from which it appeared, that this in-
solvent wished te make the Doctor believe that he was the
owner of the estate.
Mr. Conga, on behalf of the insolvents, said they bad
done every thing in their power to procure the necessary
deeds respecting the estate in question, but were unsuccess-
ful, and were therefore unable to comply any further with
t.te order of the Court.
Some discussion then took place, as to whether the in-
solvents should be remanded, in order to give further time
for finding those documents,
And Mr. HICATII. on behalf of Dr Duncan, prayed the
judgment of the Court. The elder insolvent at the same
dine said be was ready to receive judgment, and made
some angry animadversions on the conduct of Mr. Heath,
for which he was reprint laded by the Court, and thre.stentd
to he sent to Newitate.
Mr. Commissioner HARRIS (the Chief Cotninissinner
being absent) then addressed the two insolvents. The
younger our, he sib!, had not brew op; used on the day

h• appeared before the Court, on the supposition that the
estate had belonged to the father. The father had been a
bankrupt in 1809, when his interest in the estate was re-
deemed, and since 1812 he had no claim to it. It was ou
the representation of proceeds arising from this estate,
which did not belong tob lin at the time, that he contracted
so large a debt with Dr. Duncan: that representation was
false, and he must be imprisoned for twelve mlnths for
that fraud within the walls. The son was also sentenced to
be imprisoned for six months.
John Allen was opposed by a creditor named Wicks,
' who said he was a watch and clock maker. He said, when
the insolvent contracted the debt with him, he had given
a bood,to another person named Brown, on which his goods
were seized, and sold considerably below their value. The
debt contracted with Wicks was for a watch; and this watch
waa taken in execution by Brown, who was another oppos-
ing creditor.
Mr. Brown next came forward to oppose the insolvent.
lle had put the bond in force against the insolvent'.
effects ; the watch purchased from Wicks was among
the articles; it was bought in by the broker, and is now
in the possession of the witness Brown. The produce of
the sale was not sufficient to pay the debt. Here the case
was adjourned in consequence of defective services.
The other cases before the Court were of no interest.

NOTTINGHAM TOWN SESSIONS.-JAN. 16.

Tram Holmes, a miserable little urchin of only 13 years
of age, was brought up to receive sentence for stealing
two pork pies; he had been frequently at the bar before,
and the Recorder gave him a severe lecture, which lie
treated, apparently, with the greatest contempt. He was
ordered to be imprisoned three months in the lionise of
Correction, to be once privately and severely whipped, and
fined 6d.
Thomas Hall Pycroft, who had been convicted yester-
day, on two indictments for stealing books from the shop
of Charles and Richard Sutton, was now brought up to re-
ceive serdence. The Court, at considOtable length, dwelt
on the enormity of his crime, and declared that without
being chargeable without unjust partiality,and an improper
respect of persons, they could not but allow the taw. to
take its course. It would be a piece of injustice to other's
not to do so, and the Court therefore ordered that the
prisoner should be transported for the term of seven years.

POLICE.
—.so—

Alatestos-nouse.—Yesterday a female servant, named
Jane More was charged with having stolen, in the dwelling
house of her master, plate to an enormous amount.
Mr. Kirwan, a merchant residing in Riches-court, Lime-
street, stated, that the prisoner carne into his service a
short time since, upon a written character. Oa Thursday
night he went to the theatre, an I left the house in the care
of his two female servants and his clerks. On his return
lie was told that a serious robbery had been attempted, and
on examining his plate chest lie found that it had been
petted, and a large quantity taken out.
The cook in the service of Mr. Kirwan deposed, that
about seven o'clock on Thursday evening she went up to
her bed room, when she perceived the door window which
led out to the leads open. She went on to the leads, and
there saw a light in her master's room, and the prisoner as
if in tha act of picking up something. Witness thought
all this exceedingly strange, and returned in, much
alarmed. She was met by the prisoner, coming towards
the leads ; she seemed much surprised and agita'ed, and
said " Alt !is that you?" Witness went down and opened
the front door, to look about, when she saw a man, who,
on perceiving her, turned away in a very suspicious man-
ner. She walked about for some time. On returning in
she found the parlour-door open, and the prisoner stand-
in: there. Witness said to her, " Jane, how is it that you
let the parlour-door be open, when you know master is so
prtiettlar." She made no direct reply, and witness per-
ceived a large bundle in the chair before which she was
standing. She called up one of the clerks, when they
found this bundle to contain plate closely parked. The
prisoner was secured, but nothing material was found upon
her.
It was intimated to the Lord Mayor that a parcel, con-
taining plate, besides that alluded to, was found suspended
over an area by a cord, from the wall or leads, in such a
manner that a person standing on the ground might take
it oil conveniently.
'l' he prisoner was much affected, and declared she had
done what she hail done entirely in consequence of the ein-
barrassment of her husband, under whose contreul she
acted.
Mr. Kirwan said he was not aware, when he engaged the
prisoner, that she was married ; but he had ascertained
that tier written character was true. As the charge against
her was of a capital nature, he appeared desirous cot to
press it strictly against her with respect to the second
pureel.
The LORD MAYOR said the whole circumstances 'Must
appear, and remanded the prisoner, that a witness might
be brought forward to speak to the finding the second par-
cel of plate.
MAR Lno ROUGH STREET.—Joh3 Prizeman and Radical
Barber, the former the father, mad the latter the aunt, of au
infant about three years old, were charged with cruelly beating
and ill-treating it.
A beadle of st. Giles's was sent for by the landlord of the
house No. 231, Tottenham Court Road, where the prisoners
lodged, to take charge of them yesterday morning, in conse-
quence of their cruelty to the citild. The mother had requested
the landlord, when she went out in the morning, to have an
eye to the infant, as she was apprehensive that her husband and
sister would treat it unkindly in her absence. She said the
child had been carried by the hair of its head from one si.le of
the room to the other, and most barbarously used. The land-
lord did as he was desired ; an:t finding, from the dreadful
picture which the infant presented, that it had suffered exceed-
in ly, sent to the beadle, who took the prisoners into custo•
dv. The child was taken to the parish workhouse, where it
now lies in a most dangerous state. A certificate from the

consii

nose Surgeon was handed to the Magiatratea,..from which

Appeared that the child is in a hopelesistate. It isbruised in
various parts of its body ; there is a wouud un its forehead,
and its nose has been deftoly lacerated.
Both the defendants were ordered to find bail, audio default
thereof, they were committed.
John Casein, a man of colour was next brought before
Sir Ugonue FARRANT, on the following singular charge.
Pope, a chemist, of Oxford-street, said that the prisoner
came into his shop, and pulling out a pocket of opium,ten-
dered him the quantity for sale. Mr. Pope considered from
his appearance that he could not have obtained it in an ho-
nourable manner, and inquired of him what he wanted per
pound fir it. Cassin immediately said 18s. Mr. Pope
then felt convinced he could not have come by it honestly,
the lowest price being about 40s. the pound, and gave him
in charge to a constable.
Sir (icons:a FARRANT asked him where he obtained it ?
In broken English he said he had just come out of St.
Thomas's Hospital, where be bad taken a great inantity,
and that the quantity now produced, had Leen given bum
when he lett the Hospital by Dr. Green, for his complaint.
An officer, during this time was busily employed in search-
ing his person ; in his pocket was found another quantity
of small pieces ; these he said had also been given hits by
Dr. Green, and taking up one piece, put it in his mouth
and swallowed it. Then, said Sir George, as you can
'mallow the small pieces, and as you say they were all
given you to take ; swallow this piece also (taking up a
large piece from the first lot)—Ho, bo ! replies Cassia, me
no swallow dat, me swallow one dram; dat would kill
tun ! Very well, said Sir George, then 1 suppose it will
turn cut that you had time small pieces given you, and the
remainder you st ale from the Hospital.
Mr. Pope observed he was convinced that was the
tact ; were often robbed in a similar.saisaner.

„
tiir alsoace FARRANT now turned his attention to a (lan-
dty of papers which had been found abort Casein ; one that
appeared: to be more remarkable than the others was in
the following terms :-
4, To the humane leader !—John Cassin, a Lascar, turned
Christian, who lost his Cast, presents himself as en object-
to your charitable assistance. He is a native of Calcutta,
in the East bathes ; in a poor distressed situation, without
friends, money, or clothes, and with a family. He is about
40 years of age. and can give an interesting account of his
conversion to Christianity. To the readers of this paper,
any money bestowed on this converted Heathen is consti-
tuted to God, and he is in duty bound to pray.
(Signed) .‘ 06ORGZ BERRING.”
Three indorsements were also on this remarkable pa-
per, viz.
Rev. George Herring . .E 0 5 0
Walter Evans 0 15 0
P. Sporland, M.D. 0 15 0
Several other papers were also found upon kilts, some
duplicates of pawnbrokers at Bristol, Bath. &c., and
others of not the least importance.
Sir 0. PARRANT then directed Schofield, an officer, to
make inquiries at St. Thomas's Hospital, and remanded
Cassin for a week.
A young man, named John Duncan, having been appre-
hended on a charge of picking a gentleman's pocket, was
detained on another more important one, viz., of ste.th n g
a valuable box of linen from a house in Charlotre-street,
Fitzroy-square. The parties having been apprised of his ap.
prehension, attended at time office, when the servant wave the
following testimony :—On Saturday evening, the 24th in-
stant, a trunk was brought from BI tekheath, by the car-
rier, containing the whole of her wearing apparel,
trinkets, &c. Sec. The box was accardingly taken in by
the servant, sn waited the owner's arrival; shortly after
the carrier had so left the box, a man knocked at the door,
and inquired for Captain Johnson, evidently for the put-
pose of seeing where the trunk was deposited, on receiving
his answer that Captain Johnson did not live there, he
went away ; ten minutes bad not elapsed before another
knock came to the door, and the servant immediately
' answered it ; another man then presented himself, saying
he had come from the carrier in Charlton-street, and that
having delivered the wrong trunk lie wanted to change it,
and immediately placing it on his shoulder, went in the
direction of Charlton-street. The servant imagined he
would return with the right box; that, however, he never
did, and ultimately a reward was offered fur the apprehen-
sion of the robber. The servant, on giving this testimony,
was directed to loolc at the prisoner ; she slid so, and said
she considered he was the wan who had carried away tue
trunk.
The prisoner denied the charge in tato—said he hail
never seen the box or servant in his life, and resided at
No. 7, Northamberiand-court, Southampton-buildings,
Holborn.
The Officer, who had received the information, was then
directed to make inquiries respecting him, and in the wean
time he was remanded for a further examination.
HATTON-OARDEN.--Yestertlay Mr. Barrowes, brewer,
of Backhill, Hatton Garden, applied to the Magistrate for
his advice under the following circumstances : —lie stated
that lie discovered that an interesting looking young
woman, about twenty years of age, had slept for the last
three nights in the yard of the brewery ; and such was the
state of exhaustion in which she was found, that if he
had not given her some food and brought her into his
house, she must have expired. The girl stated that lis r
father and connections were of the highest respectability
in Worcestershire ; hut that, owing to the extreme severity
of her stepmother, she was obliged to fly to l.onsdsn, and
take a servant's place. Her naturally delicate constitution,
and her not being habituated to labour, rendered her unfit
for servitude ; and, after pawning all her clothes to sup-
port herself during the last three weeks and pay her
lodgings, she was at last turned into the streets. To save
herself from infamy. she took shelter in those premises, in
the hope of dying there.
The Magistrate expressed his commiseration for her
situation, and despatched an officer with her to the Men
'licit', Society, requesting that th..• would attend to he
situation, conceiving her case to be well deserving their
ideration.

MURDERS NEAR KNARESBOROUGU.

The following further particulars re'pectins this myste-
rious occurrence are extracted from the Leeds Independent
of Tuesday
Calverley has undergone three several exa.ni nations.—
These examination' have been private, the Magistrates
having excluded all persons whatever, but the parties im-
mediately concerned—an exclusion which was extended to
a professional gentleman who wished to attend on behalf of
the prisoner. As it was understood that the final examina-
tion would take place this day, our reporter attended for
the purpose of taking notes oi the proceedings ; but, after
a conference with Sir W. I ngilby, which led to a discussi
among the Magistrates, he was informed that they had de-
termined that the examination should be private; and that,
as all applications fur admission on the previous examina-
tions had been refused, it was determined that the same
role should be abserved on the present occasion. The
Magistrates present at the examination to-day 5i ere
air
William Ingilby, Bart., IV. F. C. Scott, and John Wil-
liamson, Esqs. Having been prevented by this decision of
the Magistrates from availing ourselv.s of the hest sou tee
of information—the hearing with our own ears the deposi-
tions of the different witnesses—we have endeavoured to
supplythis defect by diligent and impartial inqairy upon
the spot, and we present the following outline of this most
singular case as the substance of the information we have
collected :
„ Mr. Henry Calverley, the person against whom this
serious charge is made, is nearly 50 years of age, a married
man, the father of a large family, and is said to be of
rather penurious habits.
"Mary Gill,a young married woman, about 27 years of
age, lived as a domestic servant in the prisoner's family
in the year 1822. She quitled his service in the month of
September, in the same year, being then in an advanced
state of pregnancy ; and at the close of that or the begin-
ning of the following year, she was delivered of a daughter
No order of filiation was sought for by Mary Gill, and the
prisoner disclaims having bad any connection with her;
but evidence was given to show, that he bad, from time
to time, paid her money for the maintenance of the child,
and it was surmised that her applications for money had
latterly become importunate. The child remained with
her mother, who seemed much attached to it, in lodgings
at Knaresborough, until Saturday the 4th October last, in
the afternoon of which day Mary Gill returned to her
lodgings without the child, which she was known to have
taken with her, apparently in the greatest distress of
mind. Upon being questioned as to the cause of her dis-
tress, she stated that she had met Mr. Calverley (the
prisoner) in Belmont Wood, by appointment, who told her
that he would provide a nurse for the child, and would
have it well taken care of, and that upon those assurances
she bad delivered the child to him, but that as soon as he
bail received it, he bad folded it in his great coat, and eau
off, leaving her in the middle of the wood; she also stated
that she gave him a bundle of child's clothes. The
persons to whom Mary Gill made this disclosure blamed
her for her conduct, and advised bee to go to him and in-
sist upon having the child delivered to her. She con,-
plied, or professed to comply with this advice, and on her
return said she had seen Calverley, who told her that he
bad sent the child to Leeds, bnt that in order to satisfy her
ansiety on the subject she should go and see it:
"It will be obvious to our teaders that this part of the
,case rests on the declaration of Mary Gill, which, upon

.. . .
trial. cool,' not h• gir"rt in evidence atearirtst the prisoner:
but it was proved by other Pride:we that she had aanlhd
tn a pereon'th take her to Used*, 'on the SOb of oci„kr,
in his waggon, and that she hail subserently called ulon
him, and told him that she would not ga in him waggon, as
the father of the child woald take her himself. In the af-
ternoon of the Sth of October, this ill fa e 1 yonng wone.ii

put to rest all farther inquiry with r-spvct to her, an iiz

visit being paid. that any suspicions were entertained on
the subject. This letter, there is now rea'on to belies,.

The prisoner said very little during the examination,
and merely denied liaviag any connexion with Mary 6111
or knowing what had become of her. Two witne-sea
were exantined on behalf of the prisoner : the first Was 4
person of the name of Teak, who had been many years
hushandryaiervent to him. HP stated on his examination,
that he had seen Mary Gill in Harrogate Lane, about 4
fortnight before !Ilartinitia., which would he a month of rt.
she was missing ; but there was such evident marks of
prevarication in the manner in which he gave testimony,
that the !Magistrates threatened to commit him for per.
Liles,; upon which, be distinctly admitted that elm he
had before stated was false, that he bad nut seen Mary Gill
and hail been induced by the promises of his In otter to
swear that he had. Faith Stephenson was called to cor-
roborate the evidence of the last hiltless, but she fainted
tiering the examinatiati ; when she recovered else said
she was not sure that the person she hail seen was Mary

it was her.
