THE COURTS. A Sad Story of Domestic Infelicities. \A Wife’s Complaint Against Her Husband. TLUNDERING INNOCENT — STOCKIOLDERS. | An Relic Inderground Resurrected. Im the sunny month of August, 1869, at No. 116 Becond avenue, in this city, Rey. Dr, Tyng joined a loving couple in matrimony who, immediately there- | upon became recognized as Harry B. Philbrook and Rebecca E., his wite Now, after six yeurs co- habitation together, and the birth of three children, Redecca appeals to the law to erect a barrier between them. For tbis purpose she has commenced a suit for separation in the Supreme Court, through her counsel, Mr. Horatio F. Averill, and in her complaint gives to the world the reasons for her act. The document is exceedingly voluminous, covering aearly forty pages of legal cap, and gives « history of their. married life from the moment of the marital kiss and friendly congratulations down to that in which she gave utterance to that stony phrase, “Henceforth our ways are apart.’ When they were married, she says, her husband was « lawyer in | Washington and represented himself as doing a good | business and owning property; ber family’s circum- Blances were moderate, yet they decked her out at a | tost of between $1,000 and $2,000, besides paying the expenses of a wedding reception. Both seem at the time to have arrived at the age of discretion, But ac- cording vo her story neither ripe age nor a handsome wedding outfit, nor that love which is supposed to have attracted them to each other, proved sufficient to smooth their future road, which seems to have been torduroyed all the way through, for she charges | abused her (Rachel) need! NEW YORK HERALD, SUNDAY, JANUARY 9, 1876.—TRIPLE SHEKY. it, whereupon he became go abusive that I burst into tears and was obliged to go back to the house. The de- fendant was constantly making trades {n real estate, but vever informed me about them or his business iv 80 that I have always been kept in ignorance any of his boasts that he is worth from $40,000 to. $60,000, and has a large amount of real estate all over the coun- try.” In about ten days from the time of the furniture events she received orders from ber lord to take the | two babies and nurse—the latter a fifteen year old girl of dusky hue named Rachel—to the new house at the Highlands. Her husband put her on board the. horse cars and gave her the “exact fare.” She tried to in- duce bim wo give her enough change to get a lunch for the children, but he “peremptorily” refused, saying he would be out there after a while. They arrived at the house, but found it entirely empty, and were com- pelied to extemporize seats by taking drawers from a closet and inverting them. After three hours he came, 4nd soon the house was comfortably turnished, and | they were “more comfortably situated than at’ any Th ashort time, however, time since their marriage.’? and she her husband was again out of money, allowed him to raise some on her piano, with a portion of which be took her watch outof pawn, They were ther without ready money to procure many articles that seemed almost indispensable, and were running up & billatastore for provisions Rachel, the ‘dusky maiden, "? was without shoes or suitable clothing. She wore old cloth shoes, notwithstanding which the de- fendant forced her to go out in the suow and slush on tilling errands, until she was finally compelied to cut the legs off a'pair of his boots and take reiuge in the remaining portion, She (pigintif) bad promised Rachel's mother to do well by ber, but defendant made ‘impossible for jane ee Be f promise, He often ly, And, On one occasion, when she hesitated about léaying their when ordered, to the horror of plaintiff, he jumped out of bed im his night robe, and pushed the | wnoffeuding Rachel out of the room, At this time, being in want of money to buy necessaries for her chil- dren, she got some work to do from Boston, and in this way earned between $§ and $10, of which her husband occasionally borrowed small sums, and at last she gave him the mone; order to get the work, he pleading that he badly needed mall amount in his businces. ‘Then comes in rapid succession, but detailed in the complaint at great length, the recital of numerous events almost similar to those stated—straitened circum- stances, the borrowing of $75 from her father, the pawning of her jewelry, his going to New York to take the oldest child to her father's, leaving her but $5; his coming back for her and’ bringing her to ‘her father’s, his sullenness and irritableness, her necessity to take stimulants during the jouruey, their living together at her father’s house, her sensibilities outraged by his rude and. disrespectiul behavior to the members of ber family, the birth of another cnild, and her mother again providing for the occasion ; his differ- ence of opinion with the aitending physician as to what was proper for her; and, still later, bis threats of violence and use of profane language, and a tempo- rary separation. Reconciliation followed this separa- tion, and they went to live in Brooklyn.

She told her father she presents an almost continuous chain, | and mother of the occurrence, and also for the first time told them of ber past experience, is all that can be given. His first cruel and inhuman oni ‘would stay with them’ it they te act, complained of by her, occurred im the Centennial City. There, while on their bridal trip, they visited the United States Mint, and her husband selected and purchased and gave her a silver coin of each denomina, tion, which she carefully preserved until he subse- quently borrowed these souvenirs of the occasion and the place one by one and spent themall. Within a few fier their marriage she became sensible of a cold- mess on the part of her husband, which soon mani. fested itself in neglect and in the withdrawal of con- Qdence and sympathy. Only three weeks after their marriage, while inhaling together the balmy southern Washington park, she gave expression to a little pulsive feeling of affection, which secmed quite tural in @ young wife, but she was so rudely and toarsely repulsed that she was inexpressibly shocked and burst into tears. Then it almost immediately and constantly became a common expression of hig that she had go little brains in her head that it tired him to be near her and that her presence exhausted him and took his strength away. In a very fow weeks she discovered that his property and ready means had been overrated and that he already experienced great difficulty in paying board and necessary incidental! ex- penses, but she nevertbeless reselved to do her whole duty to him as a wife, and has, she claims, always dono fter afew months’ boarding in Washington they be- keep house on a limited seule, and there her hus- 2 aud has since continued the practice, whether in funds or not, never to keep provisions in the house nor supply more than enough to last from meal to meal. She trequentiy pursue a different policy and m the way of provisions on hand, and would occasionally remonstrate with him against such an inconvenient and unusual course of livin, but she was always met with cruel rebuifs, and final! abandoned all hopes of a change and+accepted the situation, She endeavored to have him allow a stated amount for housekeeping, but he would never du so, bis usual practice being to give her just sufficient money with which to |p tone @ meal such a8 he saw Gt to order, and she has frequently been reproached with extravagance when she expended less than seventy-five cents for a meal for three aduita. He never her to have any money in her purse except on very few occasions. Alter continued coaxing and en- treaty she prevailed upon bim to let her have a single dollar at a time, but he would almost invariably borrow it back in small sums. Soon he be; to tay bitter and cutting things to her and evince a desire to wound her feclings without any ovocation, and she was so conscious and sensitive to tis change of manner and treatment, that when alone | she was often in tears In 1870 they broke up house- keeping, he soins bis own furniture and requesting issto It he: permission to sell hers, excepting the piano. She con- sented reluctantly, the furniture bemg dear to her from | its associations. He promised his note, payable to her, | with interest, for the $150 which resulied from the sale; but, alas! she never saw note or interest Her piano was injured in the moving, and he recovered $40 therefor. While the suit for damages was pending she told him of many things she wanted for the baby, and asked him to give her the proceeds for | that purpose, but of the $40 he gave her but $5 for the baby, aud none for herself, although money was so Scarce about that time that she was for several days unable to continue work upon a garment for the baby, for the want of sufficient money to purchase a spool of cotton, In her presence ber husband would | dispute bills presented to him, thus constantly morti- fying her, and any request from her to refrain was sure to call forth from him some coarse or vulgar expres- sion, such as that she should mind her own busiuesa. Her husband seemed unpopular with everybody, and she was thereby devarred from all society except thas of her baby. In March, 1871, ehe visited ber family im this city, and in the May following her husband also id both remained unti! August; and though | guest at her father’s table, she charges her hus- | band with making himself exceedingly disagreeable in his manner toward all in the house and showing an en- tire absence of geutiemanly polish aud action. In | ir of that year her husband staried with herself and the baby to pay a visit to his friends in Ver. mont Before the start she requested aud begged of bim to give ber «a small amount of money as a safeguard in case of | some possible accident, but he refused to give ber a | single peony.

She then sent him anote saying she thought it would be impossible to live with him, in reply to which he came, and, prom- ising to do better and to settle some property on her, urged her to try it for at least thirty days, and she consented. Part of the proposition was that he should give her a deed of one house in Lafayette avenue, Brookiyn (be saying he owned three there), provided she would raise the money to deiray (he expenses. elry, which be pawned for the Bot the deed of the house. after being located in Brooklyn ¢ WAS aga periencing she old, familiar style of “ill tment and abuse,” He would send Rachel to the grocery to get things on credit, and upon her suggesting that it would be better for him t go himself and ask for credit, he called her a half-witted fool, who did not know what she was say- ing. For dve months, she continues, they lived most miserably, and, to add to the hardships of a scanty table, she hardly ever received akind word from her husband About the middie of March, 1875, sbe was uddenly notitied to prepare to move Within two days, in consequence of her husband’s inability to pay the interest on the mortgage, aud again she and the chil- dren had to quarter themseives on her futher. Now they became separated, and after a few weeks again reconciled, she beyaing to lose the children and he promising to treat her better. He also about this time ave her a deed of two houses in Lexington avenue, rooklyn, and also of some unimproved Western lands, the value of which she has uot been able to learn hith- erto. Beside the first mortgage on the Lexington avenue property she, at his request, executed additional mort- | | but $80 for her personal use, She concludes her long ) arraignment of her busband’s conduct toward her by rging that during the six years of their married life e received from him for ‘pin money’ not exceeding times that sum; that nearly all the clothes worn by herself and children have been given by her relatives or made out of her marriage outfit; that through her cir- | cumstances she has become alienated from her per- sonal friends; that the defendant has always dressed | well nimself, ‘and, while wearing light-colored kids, has worn her underclothing, such as undervests and stock- | ings, while at the same time boasting that be was worth bout $75,000—that being his usual figure, and he certainly bad lands and houses of some kind all the while, bocause she bad to join with him in executing the deeds and mortgages; that provisions tor by bim ordered through the servant and coal purchased by thé bushel and baif bushel, She further alleges that she is thoroughly competent as a | music teacher, able to earn enough to support herself and them, and asks the Court to grant Ler a decree of | Separation from her husband, on the ground stated and | much more of the same sort (including the repeated use of abusive language toward her), and that she be awarded the custody of the cnildren. Such, in substance, stated almost throughout in her own words, are the wrongs of Rebecca as detailed by ber in her sworn complaint. The husband is yet to be beard from, DEFRAUDED STOCKHOLDERS. The Supreme Court, General Term, in this district, bas just rendered a decision of the utmost importance as bearing on the rights of stockholders of corporate companies and the protection, or rather absence of protection, of their interests in the companies in which thoy may own stuck. In 1870 ® company named the “H. A. Gouge & Co.’’ was organized in this State, un- der the provisions of a general act of the Legis- lature passed of mechanical pany parpose of “owning and utilizing the patents and — inventions then owned by Henry A. Gouge, with any improvements which might be made thereto, and the manufacture of all articles pertaining to their use, or to the occupation of ventilating, heating or cooling of space, and also the selling and disposing of the same." | Of the stock of this company (fixed at $200,000) Francia Greaves was induced to purchase twenty shares, pay- formation mining, The com- for the ip 1848, authorizing the corporations for “manufacturing, or chemical purposes.” was ostensibly = organized ‘ng into the company therefor $2,000. Immediately upon the organization of the company Henry A. Gouge became its president, and has so continued; aud dur- tng the years 1872 and 1873 one Frederick Reid was an true condition, except that he frequently | bedroom | ¢ had been compelied to deposit in | gages to the extent of §1,800, of which sum she received | oilicer and director or trustee of the company. During | the years 1871, 1872 and 1873 the company di a large ‘and prosperous business, earning the sum of not less than $40,000 over and above all expenses and liabilities As the result of this prosperity, the sanguine Mr. Greaves very naturally looked for some dividends to be paid on his investment, but be has hitherto looked in vain. In April of last year he commenced a suit in the Supreme Court, in this city, against Henry A. Gouge individu. aily, and in his complaint therein, after reciting the foregoing facts, charged Gouge, in company with Reid, through their influence as oflivers of the company, fraudulently and illegally prevented the declaration and payment of dividends, and charged Gouge {ndividually with having fraudulently and wrougfully converted to his own use the whole surplus earnings of the company during three years—$40, 009. As @ part of the means whereby this sum was appro- priated by Gouge the nompliainant further charged thas he, in conspiracy with Reid and other directors and trustees and _ officers of the company, by his own vote and theirs, secured to himseif unlawially a salary of $4,000 per year, that he took for his individual usa, under pretence of a loan from the company, the sum of $6,000, shat he appro- and there were many things sho neglected to do, | priated to his ows use property of the company valued | expecting that of course the defendant wguid at $1,000; that be paid $1,000 out of the tunds of the | see to them.” After the event he x | company ai ages to persons Who performed labor for | no notice of the baby and seemed at his personal account, and that he pledgea the credit of Ahat it had been born I, Wheo it was but two or | the company to the extent of $6,000 mors, which sum three days old it cried a good deal, and on sueh occa- | he also wrongfully converted to his own use, In short, sions be would leave the room and violently door and mutter to himself, thus expressing Lis anno; ance Four monies after the birth of this chila tb broke up housekeeping and went boarding, and months later ber husband exchanged some Washing. ton property for Western property, receiving cash, and bg) Awd decided to go to Will ‘port, Aiter six weeks’ stay there they “made” for his friends io Vermont, and after a short sojourn there he went to Boston, soon after which he sent ber a peremptory eummons to go to him, although she was entirely unit 60 travel; but she felt It her duty to obey, and did so, Among the cruelties inflicted upon while among aer husband's friends in Vermont was (hat after they bad been cordially received by his uncle, ‘and she was given to understand that they were to make ® protracted visit, much to her surprise, at the end of | | bad used the compa the complaint of Mr. Greaves was that this Mr. Gouge had used bis position as President of ihe company for his individual bevettt by his fraudulent act: that respect had rendae: siock wholly worthless, and defrauded bim ((irew the extent of $3,000, for which sum he demanded judg- men te Without denying the charges made by Greaves, Gouge interposed several demurrers to bis complaint, the principal one of which, and that whereon the de- c@0n was made, Was that, admitting aii that stock- holder Greaves charged to be true, he was without remedy at jaw and might whistie for bis investment and expected dividends.

Judge Barrett said that his Court was always overrun with work, and as the General Sessions had three judges he sent the mat- ter to that court. In a suit tried before Chief Justice Shea, in the Ma- rine Court, to recover on a note in which the defence was usury, the Judge charged the law on that question to be that, if the excess over legal interest paid to the party discounting the note was intended as compensa- tion for trouble and expense, either or both, incurred in arranging tor the money to be loaned, then that would not constitute usury, not being intended as com- pensation for the loan, but as compensation for the trouble or services {n arranging to provide the money, aud that question he submitted for the consideration of jury.
