DIVORCK CASE—ALFRED CARHART V8. ELIZA ANN CARHART. June 7.—This was a suit (continued frem yesterday.) for a divorce, on the ground of adultery. It was deposed to, om part of the plaintiff, that the mariage solem- pihed -bstween them, in December, 1847, and that the alleged criminal intercourse took place between the defendant and Doctor Harris, in the summer of 1818. A witness nemed Fullerton, deposed that he saw Doctor hart, and then saw them go up this witness@wore plainly to the fact of seeing the Dector andthe ladyin bed. For the defence Doctor Harris was first called, and deporcd that he attended Mrs. Carhart professional, in the life time of her first husband ; he knew her for seven or eight ra. and he swore solemnly that there was pot a word of truth in th idenceof Fuller- ton, respecting his kissing Mrs Carbart, or being in the bedroom with her; it also appeared from further evidence, that Mrs Carhart hid at onetime attem the act of self destruction. The plaintiff, who was a hay merchant, formerly a member of the Legi was a widower when be married the defend: is his fourth wife, Mrs, Carhart was i e married the plaintiff, who is apparently several years her senior. This morning. the case for the defence was resumed. Mrs. Childs being examined, deposed :—T verration with Mr. Carhart after his marri I do not recollect how long after it; it was rela- tive to his obtaining a divorce ; the first conversation with him about the divorce, showed « very different reason trom the last; it was at his heuse, and his wite was present ; she came to me to go to the house ; Mr. Carhart gw to understand that he wishe: di- vorce because he was not satisfied with bis wife; lun derstood him to convey to me the idea that his wife Was net a woman; he did not assign any other cause at that time; I had a second conver jon with him on the subject ; besaidhe thought her friends ought to assist him in this cause; in this conversation he gave me to understand the same cause for his wish for a divorce an before ; it was brf-re Mrs, Carhart al tempted to destroy herself ; he said to me he thought Mrs, Carhart had money; thathe had been told sb bad; be never assigned any other cause for the divorce than what! #¢ mentioned. Cros:-exe mined—There might have been something said the firet day to the effect of « physteal defect upoa Mrs. Carhart’s part; there was nothing said about another cause which would be disgraceful to Mra, Car- hart, and that in order to conceal it, they should agree to a divorce upon the ground ot physical defect ; there was nothing of that kind sald. Direet examination resi dren by her former hu with Mr. Carhart tor several weeks after she attempte: to commit suicide. Joseph Irich deposed that ho was a driver of a hay cart; I am well aequainted with Arthur Carh red kuow Fullerton, the witness in this case; I knew him when be drove a bay cart for Carhart; L dered Fuller ber oF stead: and veracity is very poor; I any one speak well of him y, for I think I know him to acertainty. (Laughter.) Crose-examined.—Does not drive a hay cart no lives like any other geutlemad on his money, (laug! ter); left off drivin, ause too many people got into his debt, and he afraid of gett into debt more and more himself, (laughter) ; I 01 bout three or four hundred dollars to the hay store. not paid any few hundred dollars hat owed it to me Are ‘o should and rt for # saucy tongue, (laugh- thas not paid all the money th Fullerton; I know nothing # loater, (loud laughter): L was I left the society; they did not yet;' I bad mo quarrel ot him but that he brought up ® Quak turn me 6 Ba wbas#, Adams examined.—I know Alfred Car- hart; my wife is his sister. (Letters produced —are in Carbart's band-writi Beviral letters of the plaintiff to the defendant were read, They bad been written since the separation of the parties, and counsel for plaintiff objected to cer- tain parts of them being given in evidence. Counsel for defendant said that he would contend in his obser- vations tothe court and jury, that there was « condo- nation of the alleged crime in these letters, and he referred the Judge to the decisions of the Chancellor, in 4th page ‘The iollowing is a copy of one of the letters:— : Samnnny ty 108 ore, ae you pay yor orth 0 ‘icing called doar ‘ ° id char few momo promise forget and forgive th w rei sa to humbi tn'es mivorable ae by the desire of his father; it stated, that failed in his miseion to friends in Bank stro” Que hat was that mission?

Cireult Court, Before Judge Mitchell. Jun 6.—Depeyster § Whitmarsh vs. The Sun Mutual Insurance Company.—This trial occupied the court three days. It was an action to recover a total loss of three invoices of hides and skins, and an invoiee ot * amounting to the valuation in the poliey of $6. 64, besides interest, shipped to the pistaci@e by the brig Alfred Hammond, en a voyage from the Spanish Main to New York. in 1842 Soon after port on the homeward voyage, the vessel suffered from bad weather and sprung alenk and was badly injured, and aconsiderable amount of the plaintiffs’ hides were Jeteamed to lighten the ship and save the remaining cargo. The vessel made for Havana as a port of ne- cessity, pumping all the way to keep down the leak. The deeny and corruption of the hides, produged by the irruption of water among them and the heat, was attended with a noxious smell and effluvia, that pro- duced sickness, which resulted in the death'of severa of the er nd passengers. On arriviog at Havana, the vessel was complained of as & nuisence on accounts of the condition of the hides—a large quantity was token outof the harbor and sunk—the remainder were sold at auction, and the proceeds used in repairing the vessel. The consignees of the eargo received no- thing. The defendants moved for s nonsuit, ou the greund of deviation im the use of ports on the Maim ed by the policy—the policy having use of three addifional ports om from the Spanish Main,” and the being on the Main. The plaintiffs the policy was to be constraed © to the usages of the trade, and n this Spanish Maim trade vessels use and rade with various ports on the Main, but never st after leaving the Main in the usual course of th voyage. The ports used had been notified to the com peny. and the premium for each port on ing made had been re ft paid; the ports used and the premium being eadoraed on the policy by the direction of the president of the company. it also appeared that the objection of devi- ation had been taken on a former trial of th be- fore Judge Kdmonds, in October, 1845, a! then granted on that ground; that the excepted to the deoision; the general term of ants also objected to terest in the plaintit by Justice Mitchell ‘Testimony was the: to sustain the obj contended that bides bein; ed the case to the jury, with instructions that if satisfied as to the plaintiffs Intor- est, and that the bides belon; damaged by the disaster tbat ° authorized to J loss, The jury, without ordict for the plaintiffs for the being $9,615 17, besides oo their seats, found amount claimed, Betore Judge Jone 7 —David C.
