The object of this suit is to procure a decree to divcrce the complainant a vinculo miatrimonii from the defendant. The bill states that the complain- ant was united in the bonds of wedlock to the de- fendant some time in the year eighteen hundred and forty-six. with whom she lived and cohabited until the year eighteen hundred and sixty-two. That for s6me years they lived together upon terms of mutual confidence and affection; but for the last eight or nine years the defendant has been but little with his family,and during that time he hascontrib- uted but little for their support and comfort, and re- cently has left shew and taken up his residence in Washingtoncity. That the defendant has persist- ently treated her with marked disrespect and often With cruelty, and from the violence of his treat ment and conduct towards her she was in danger of some bodily harm in continuing to live with him, That the defendant had been for some years in open adulterous and illicit intercourse with various low and disreputable women. and from this persistent course of life of the defendant she is satisfied that a reconciliation cannot be had between herself and the defendant. And the said defendant resides out of the State of Maryland. It is. thereupon, this 9th day of March, 1833. ad- judged and ordered by the Clerk of the Circuit Court for Prince George’s county, as a Court of Equity, that the complainant by causing a copy of this order to be inserted in some newspaper pub- lished at Washington city, District of Columbia, once in each of three auccessive weeks befere the 15th day of April next, give notice to the said a! sent defendant of the object und substanee of this Dill, and warn him to be and Spueat in this Court in person or by solicitor on or before the Ist day of | August, 1865, to answer the premises and show cause has whya decree ought not to pass as FREDERICK SASSUER, Clerk of Circuit Court of Prince George’s county, asa Court of Equity.

The London journals which came to hand erday, are, of course, filled with graphic descriptions of the marriage ofthe Prince of Wales and Prine Alexandra, of Denmark at Windsor on the tenth of this month. The the reception, the wonderful asp masses and their admirable conduc procession as a spectacle is criticised, however, as not being worthy the occasion, whil civie display and the management of the a’ in the city proper are generally condemned. So dense wis the crowd and so imperfect the ar- rangement of the city authorities, that the pro- ion had the greatest difficulty in making its into the city, and in thespace fronting the sion House a scene of indescribable confu- sion occurred. It is feared that many su ed injuries from thepressnre.

At one time a baby was held up inthe crowd, which had ali the appearance of being dead or dying. At another a woman was seen to throw a child about a year and a half old into a pass- ing carriage, to Saye its life, and was then swept into the vortex of the cro herself. At one time an attempt was made, in all loyalty and good hwmor, to take out the horses. that the happy pair might be drawn through the city. but better taste triumphing. the attempt was frustrated. The manner of the Princess was marked by much self-possession under circumstances calculated to canse alarm for the moment, even simid the general rejoicing. Once or twice she showed some natural apprehension lest any of the people who pressed toward the carriage might be trodden under foot. The impression created by the Princess was in the highest degree favorable. The progress through the westend of London, was well managed, accord- ing to programme, but it began to rain before the procession was finished, and it was pouring in torrents when the royal party passed through Windsor to the Castle, and the proceedings there were consequently shore of some of their intended grandeur. The princess was received on her arrivalat Windsor by the Queen and the Royal family. The papers treat the demonstrations as a grand moral triumph, of which the eountry may honestly be proud, and the Times says it was a sight the like of which has not been seen by living man, and which this generation will probably never witness again. ot the The royal 7 Western Virginia voted Thursday on the new State question, and on the adoption of the amendment inserted by Congress in the Con- stitution of the State.
