Ken). ©. Brooker, took ccession to submit the following very import- ant observations regarding the construction to be given to the statutes relating to the subject { divorces, and also to suggest certain rules which should be observed in Pproceedingsjot this description. The Judge remarked inci- ntally that be hadconsulted with Chief Jas- tuce Oartter in regard to the matter, and that he generally concurred with him in the views ex- pressed The Judge said: This is an application for a Givorce from the bonds of matrimony upon the ground of adultery (in the language of the stat- ote) committed by the husband subsequently to his Marriage with the complainant. The re- Spondent interpgses no answer to the petition of the wife, thoigh it appears by the papers ‘bat counsel appeared in bis behalf and cro«s- examined one or more witnesses produced and Sworn om beBaif of the complainant before the exammmer The act of Congress conterring jurisdiction upon this Court to grant divorces from the bonds of matrimony passed June 19, 1-60, (see Statates at Large, vol. 12, p. 59) provided in general terms, that appiwations for divorce any cause) may be made by petition, - specify ing the cause therefor with certainty.” The sct turtker provides that a divorce avin- culo matromom from the bonds ot matrimony ty be granted in any of the following cases: + Where such marriage was contracted ist either of the parties thereto had a for- mer wife or hueband living unless the former arrisge sball have been lawfully dissolved, ud no restraint shall have been enforced on se party contracting such second marriage. td. Where such marriage was contracted during the lunacy of either party. or where iher party was mafrimenially incapacitated ime of the marriage; and, 4. When either party has commit‘ed adul- ery during the marriage These are the only grounds upon which a divorce trom the bonds of matrimony can be granted by this court. ‘of Congress does not, like the legis- on of mostof the States of the Union, im- © Any disability upon the offending party, leaves the guilty, as weil as the innocent, to contract again the relation of marriage: and “ince its passage we have already had the scan- dalous exhibition in one or more instances in which the adulterer bas come imto court, ac- knowledged upon oath his crime, and con- tracted & second marriage before the ink was seareely dry upon the decree dissolving the first i make these remarks, not by way of com- ‘inipt against existing legislation, but simply ‘o show bow important I deem it for this court to be vigilant and careful lest its process be used to subvert the spirit and policy of the act of Congress, and break down all those ee- carities and safeguards which in all well-reg- ulated communities have been placed round the marital relation The petition in this case states with the re- jisite certainty the time and piace of the com- mission of the alleged offence, and yet, perbap: 1. OUgDt to be regarded as defective in not tng the name of the person with whom snc offence was committed. If anabdle to ascer- tain the name of such person, the fact should De stated 2d. It should be averred in the petition that since the discovery of the alleged adultery th complamant bas not voluntamly cobabited with the respendent. 3d. It should also be averred that the pe tition is not filed by collusion with the re spondent. and 4th. The petition sRould be verified by the oath of the complainant, to the effect that the facts stated in the petition upon her own knowledge are true, and that the matters and things therein stated upon information and be- let, she believes to be true. in looking through the evidence in this case, 1 find ne proof of the marriage of the parties. It as stated im the petition that the parties were married in Phi Iphia, Pa., and that a copy of the marriage certificate is filed with the clerk of this court; but the petition does not purport to be verified by oath, and if it were, 1 do not think would or ought to dispense with proof of marriage. 1 learn. however, that the petition was in verifled, but the jurat was omitted to be added by the clerk of the court. in abmost every tribunal having jurisdiction of the subject of divor it bas been beld that preof of the marriage was an indispensable pre-requisite to granting a divorce from the bonds of matrimony. The act of Congress on this subject, hastily and crudely drawn, as it manifestly 1s, centains, however, the wise and salvtary provision + “no judgment for a divorce shall be rendered on defauit without proof. nor sball any admission contained in the smswer be taken as proof of the facts charged. but the same shall in all cases be proved by other evidenc The marriage contract ha: been regarded as of so great solemnity ia ali civilized countries that its dissolution has not usually been de- creed for slight and trivial causes. The sacred observance of its obligations is almost the sole guarantee of the progress of Obristian civili- zsuon Hence the rale has almost universally been observed that when a party seeks the aid of a Court of Equity to decree & dissolution of such contract the party complaining must notonly. in the ill or petition, charge the offense which by aw will, prima facie, authorize a decree for the re~ Lich cought, but negative cack and every defense, which. Vf proved, would constrain « Uourt of Eyui- ¥ fo refuse the relief sought. I think it by no means an uareasonable re- quirement that the complainant should verify his or her statement by oath, especially since it 's irue that as to some matiers in all cases of éivorce the oath of the party is almost the only security the Court can bave against fraud or mposition Several important facts in this case, material to fs proper disposition. are neither averred in be petition or alluded to in the proots. 1 need mention buttwo. It is not averred in the pe- tition that after the discovery of the adultery of the defendant by the complainant did not voluntarily cobabit with the defendant if she did, upon no principles of equity, bitherto administered, can the complai t be entitled to a divorce. 2d. It ts not averred in the petition that the Sune was not filed im collusion with the de- feadant. If it were, a Court of Equity would purn both parties from its Perec. The ules of pleading im cases of divorce, very }roperiy, from eonsiderations of public policy, bear little or no analogy to those in ordin ry cowl actions. I bave before stated what 1 think the true rule to be this case an order will be made allowing ae petitioner to amend her petition in the par- teulars before im mtioned—the petition. as amended, to be veritied by the oath of the pe- titioner—tbat the defendant have twenty days in which to answer such amended petition. after the same is filed if such petition be amended, aud an answer be tiled, either party may take such further proofs in the cance as 1 be advised are material. 1f no interposed be amended petition ompltinant may take such farther proots ip the case as she is Advised: the proofs already taken m the case to stand as evidence on the final bearing. oe IsceNOIARY ATTEMPT —Lofty Tumbling.— Saturday night. adout $4 o'clock, fire was d. covered in two rooms cf the house owned Mr. Henry Douglass, on G street north, be- tween Hith and I5th west Lieat.
