In the Court of Queen's Bench, this morning, Sir Fitzroy

Kelley was heard in reply on the case of Regina versus Chadwick. The Court gave judgment at con- siderable length. Their Lordships held that since the passing of the statute of the 5th and 6th Wm. IV., a marriage contracted by a man with the sister of his deceased wife was illegal, null, and void. Therefore the defendant in this case, who had been indicted for bigamy, must be discharged.
