The court agreed with what had been said as to exposure of our publi men to the pursuit of these unciean birds, but disgust any man. He could not decide that an Incapacitat ies, ul contract with pels ‘who might be willing to make such acontract. The confession of a life of adultery was a poor recommendation for a ‘woman who wanted to be a Senator's wife, but ifa Senator wanted such a wife, there was no constitutional objection. He would not take the case from the jury, for he was not afraid they are going to run away with justice so long as he bad the reins in his hands. He overruled the motion and adjourned the court. PROCEEDINGS TO-DAY. This morning there was but a small attend- ance in comparison with that of the last two weeks. On the court convening the (apg submitted prayers for instructions to the jury, in substance as follows: 1, If they believe there was.a contract of mar- riage, and plaintiff requested defendant to con- summate the contract, they should find for the plaintiff. Granted. 2. In the absence of express stipulation the jury may infer, from the conduct of the parties towards each other, that such stipulation ex- isted. Overruled, and exception noted. 3. That they may infer plaintiff's acceptance from her bearing tow: defendant. No ob- jection was made, and this prayer was granted. 4. If they find that they kept upa correspond- ence they may infer a mutual promise. Mr. Cook.—‘‘If that be so, all lovers who cor- respond are bound to marry.” e court refused this prayer, remarking that lovers may write to each other without raising the presumption that they are bound to marry. Overruled, and exception noted. 5. They may determine from the circum- ‘stances the promise to marriage. Granted,with @ proviso that they are satisfied from the cir- cumstances that the parties meant marriage. 6. That evidence as to the seduction after the promise is admissable, as going to show aggra- vation of Gran ‘with a proviso, “if they shall not believe she had received full satisfaction for the seduction.” 7. That they shall not allow welght or effect to evidence of plaintiff tending to show that the claim of plaintiff was by accord and satis- faction discharged and satisfied before or since the suit. Overruled and exception noted. 8. If they believe that subsequent to the griev- ance alleged defendant acted towards plaintiff in a contumacious insulting manner they may assess exemplary damages. Rejected. 9. Thatno money received should be regarded as a discharge, unless It was soe th full knowledge and understanding of the transac- laintiff they should ton. Rej 10. That if they find for consider the injuries to feeling and reputation. Granted. 11. That if they find for plaintiff they should give defendant credit for what moneys he has Paid.

That sald letters of plaintiff to defendant in evidence may be considered as competent circumstantial ev'dence by the jury. Rejected. G, That the failure of defendadt to appear and testify on oath as to the truth of promise of marriage ed in the declaration, is a fact from which the jury may infer that such prom ise was made. Rejected. H. That if they believe that Mr. C. did not write the letters 8.

Grant K. That it is not necessary to a binding con- tract of that the defendant should have intended to marry the plaintiff at the time the mutual engage known to the law, and that the jury are fully competent to compare and judge of the writ- ings in dispute. Rejected, because the jury aresworn to try the case by the law and the es iF. M. That they have a right to consider the failure of defendant to go on the stand is an ad- mission on his part as to sald letters, phos N.
