Iiroughtby Lieut. Colonel Guard, of the 45th ze(rinieiit of against Charles Hodge, Esq. of Ottery St. Mary, excited considerable interest; the damages were laid at 10,0001. Mr. Serjeant Lens opened the case, hy which, and by the evidence, it appeared that the Plaiirtiffj in the year 1800, had married Miss Coxon, of Kinsale, in the kingdom of Ireland, and that three children were the fruit of this union that they lived together in terms of the greatest possible affection that in 1806, the regiment being ordered to Buenos Ay res, the plaintiff was obliged to accompany it; his wife could -scarcely be prevailed on to remain at home, and nothing but the pos;J.ivc' orders of the I'oinmaHder-in-Chtef hindered her from shar- ing with her husband the dangers of the ,C"i flip, Lieutenant-Colonel Guard having embarked at Plymouth, hn disconsolate wife came to reside, during his absence, at Oftery ituar tlle of li--i- Here her acquaintance with the defendant first commenced.

Hodge was a handsome gav young man, particularly attached to the fair sev. The consequence of this intimacy was a mutua! attachment; and in the Mare;) foiio'vin<r, the criminal connection appeared to have taken place, which continued, in the anost open and ungmrded manner, till the return of the husbiud.

These being the principal points which came out on the prosecution, Mi. Jekyll, ou the part of the' defendant, made a most excellent speech in mitigation of damages, described the defend- ant's age and situation, the temptation placed iefore him, as well as the inability of his client to pay I:trge damages, if they were awarded.—The jury consulted a short time, and returned a verdict of 30001.
