After the roll call of the jurors and the restoration of quiet the Judge called the case, and Mr. Cram, on behalf of the plaintiff, rose to = the proceedings. He traced othe early family connections of ghis client and his subse- quent marr.age in 1963 with the defendant. Mr. eng ‘was the son who, under the instructions of the pater will, cared for the mansion in which his aged mother re- and where the children of the family were wont to assemble and dwell when so inclined. He had taken his wife to this house, which was situated in Newtown, Lor island, and while there in 1857 his brother, Edw: N. Strong, bad become a widower, and took up his residence with them. This Edward had been inconsolable for the loss of his wife, and had sought refuge in religious acts, He had built a Sunday school and had joined the Church. ‘The couns@l proposed to show tw the jury by the evidence that this brother had commenced a criminal itercourse with the wife of the plaintiff in the spring of 1860; that this intimacy was continued until its discovery, just os to the 5th of January, 1862, Tho said Edward bad meantime Joined the army, but in the holidays of 1861 came home on leave of ‘absence, and was again, it is alleged, guilty of adultery with the defendant at the house No. 50 East Twenty-first street, to which the plaintiff had in the meantime removed. Three chil- ‘dren had been born to the marriage—Mary, Alice and Edith. She was with child at this time, but it was never born alive. It had pleased the Almighty to take the youngest, Edith, on the 2dof January, 1862. The mothor, Milled with grief, ” for she was human, was lamenting over the death of her child, On the evening of the 6th of January, while the husband and the wife were seated in the communion of the family circle, the defendant had deen listening to a paragraph of the Bible, which told with such weight upon her conscience and feelings that she fell at the feet of her husband and confessed her sin. [Objection was made at this point by counsel for the de- fence to the introduction of the evidence of the plaintiff, who, in the present case, could not bea witness. The Judge decided that the advocate had a right to open the case as he thought proper. The husband, continued Mr. Cram, had not desired to make his domestic shame public to the world. He removed with his wife to Islip, Long Island, where he hoped to bury it from the eyes of mankind. It would be shown at the proper time that his wife had made a written confession ‘of her guilt to him, that he had not forgiven her, and that since the discovery of her sin he had not cobanie with her further than to occupy the same house. guilt had been made known successively to her father, mother, brother and sisters, and he charged them now with aseisting in secreting her and the children from the reach of the injured husband. So far as he could ascertain the defence rested their case on charges Drought against the plaintiff, supported by the affidavite - ~ men whose characters would appear afterwards. arch, 1862, the plaintiff had rented his mother’s tease situated at No. 104 Waverley place, to a man named Vernon Potter, a huckster in Washington Marke and it was with this ‘Mr. Potter’s wife he was charges with adultery. Mra. Pottere-Mrs. Electa M. Potter was a practitioner of medicine, who had associated with herself a Mra Walsh, and with whom she organized the ‘Metropolitan Medical Society for the Care and Cure of the Sick Families of Absent Sol- diers ;” ‘‘and I see,” said the counsel, holding the pros- tus of the society in his hand, ‘“it is endorsed by the ion. Henry J. Raymond and a number of clergymen.’ The brother of the defendant had now come in to crush the plaintiff, and for bis purpose had found appropriate tools. A certain lady had died during the performance of an abortion which was to have been first charged against Mrs. Potter, who was then, if convicted, to be pardot that she might criminate and condemo Mr. Strong. To assist thi plan a certain Masses and his wife wero made use of, who, accordiug to the state- ment of the former and a letter said to io in the handwriting of John Austin Stevons, were supported in comparative affluence at Earle’s joe’ Hotel by the fonlly relations a@ @he defendant. Complicity in the abortion and its attendant murder were to be proved by the evidence of these parties and by Mra. Walsh, whose husband was a wack doctor and vender of patent medicines in Bangor, Me. The case had come to trial in October last, bat the plaintiff had- been acquitted of the charge. Such was an outline of the criminal proceed- ings —- a and such were satnot ga of ca who were to prove the counter charge against adultery. The counsel occupied nearly three hours in the delivery of his address. itt il i the Cape Haytien Affair.
