LENEDICT OR DACIELORT An amusing case was on trial yesterday after- noun before Judire Moore, though the details will not bear publication, The complainsut was Augustus U, Bartiett, who brought suit to de- clare vold his marriage with Hattio Kemp, alias Martha Bartlett. He {s an intclligent-looking man between 80 and 85 years of age, while Hat- tle 18 ns black a8 the ace of spades. It scems that stic attended bim when e was sick . some threo or four years ago, and he married her In 3farch, 1873, out of cumpassion, or as a very poor retury for her kiuduness. They lved to- pether for some time, but according to bis -story ho left hier lu May, 1874, and las not sluce lived with her. He now charizes lier with gross Infidelity to ber marriage vows, and sbe rotorts with a similar aceusation. Judge Moore, huwever, without declding who had borne the lovse reputation, dlsmissed the bill on the ground that e bud never beeo mur- ried. Privr to July, 1874, the law was that all marriages between a white person snd a uegro or mulatto were lutely vold, and Leavy penaltics were pronounced against such persous marrylng, und wralnst the per- sou . solemulziugg any such ' marriage.
