THE COURTS. An Important and Acrimonious Suit Nearing a Close. FINDINGS OF THE REFEREE. Money as the Mainspring to Matri- monial Ventures. SEEKING ANNULMENT OF LIFE SENTENCES. ———_ The suit briefly catalogued on the Supreme Court calendar as Platt vs, Platt, which has been repeatedly before the different branches ot this Court during the pastseven years, and which bas attracted considera- Die interest both trom the character of the persons @nd tho interests involved, bas at length nearly Yeached a termination. In 1842 George W. Platt and Nathan ©. Platt formed a partnership under the firm me of Piatt & Brother. The firm carried on two distinct branches of business, ono the jeweiry and fancy goods business, at No, 20 Maiden lano, and the other the refining and assaying of gold and silver, at Nos, 4.and 6 Liberty place, In Octover, 1860, George W. Plats’s excess of capital in the business being very great, his brother, Nathan C., to equalize the interests of the two brothers, transferred to George the refining business and certain partnership real es tate, Ni Pi this time was President of the complications resulting from is connection with this bank and the office of Chams beriain of the city were such that he was forced to re- Ure trom both positions. He also became foancially embarrassed aud was compelicd to retire from busi- mess, Consequently, in Muy, 1861, George and Nathan agreed to dissolve their busincss connection and a rahip settlement and dissolution were entered Into by which George Plutt took what assets of the firm there were aut a valuation then agreed upon. Nathan died in July, 1868, and up to the time of his death (here was no complaint made by him in reier- ence to the tranglers of October, 1860, or to the disso- jution of the partnership, 1p 1867 an action was com- m«nced by Nathan C. Platt’s executors, ucting by Park Commissioner William R. Martin as their atturney, to set aside these transfers and dissolu- tion on the ground that they had been procured by the uo influence and fraud ry two y: tuffé served their complaint, and not until December, 1872, that they brought their fon to trial, The trial was belore Judge E£. 1, Fancher, then on the Supreme Court bench, aud re- sulted in a judgment for the pluintiff, setting uside the trausfers of October, 1860, aud the dissolution of y, 1861, on the grounds stated by the plaintiffs in their complaint, and ordering an accounting by Gorge W.

Pomeroy during the past three yeurs, und he has just made on re- pore ‘The roferee finds that ‘there is due George . Platt, on tne accounting, $45,000, He also says that after bearing the wituesses, and after a sreiui examination of the testimony and of the trans- t~slons to which big attention bas been called, he has been unable to find one scintilla of proof of auy fraud, injustice or dishonesty on the part of the deiondan but that, om the contrary, ihe ounts themselves and tho result show conclusively to bis mind that in all roapects George W. Platt has b apd bonest, bus ated the propel over wuich ho had charge witn great care und diligence, and Las been throughout willing to account for iis entire proceeds; and torther, that the estimate of the value of tho asgets made in 1861 was above the mark, anu was more whan was realizes. Two of the plaiuwifs were ex- amined on their beball belore the referee, These were William H. Platt and Nathan OC. Platt. William A. Platt bas beon the active plaintiff! in the the witness apon whose testi- decision is principally based, . Pomery reports that he 1s *tcompletely ipcapable of telling the truth under oath whenever ‘bis interest 18 opposed thereto,” und bis testimony is referred to the Court that it may see its alleged faluity. The testimony of Nathan O. Piatt is reported to be equally unreliable, “because he speaks o1 mat- ters he could uot Know about ana makes assertions beyona human possibility.” The report will shortly be Presonted for confirmation, Wiilium R. Martin ap- Peared for plainti, and S, P. Nash, Francis Kernan and Edward S, Clinch for defendant, MARRYING FOR MQNEY. ‘The ‘suit for divorce brought by Rosina Van Opstal against Johu Van Opstal came to an end yesterday by Judge Donohue decreeing a judgment of divorce in davor of the plaintiff! Tho parties were marricd im this city on the 2d of May, 1876, and they soon found thet they bad made a mistake, They had each Deen married before, the plaintiff! being a widow, still youthful and prepossessing in appearance, having had left to her by her deceased husband two houses and Jots im Beooklyn, The defendant is about forty-tivo years of age, and bad grown up sons and daugniers, At the time of the marriage he was a wholesaie liquor dealer on Lewis street, which business, since the com- Mencements of this suit, he has alleged, did not boioug to him, but to bis sons, for whom he worked at a sal- ee it $15 per week. ree mouths alter their marriage, the plainti fl al- deges, she was fully aware that the defendant married her for her property and not for herseli; that upon ber retusai to his persistent requests to convey the fk daha to him or in their joint uames he reiused to jive with ber, and placed bis eldest daughter as mis- ousehoid, and that she reiuced to give roperty because he had children aud she had noue, and vecuuse he might die betore her, When Dis chiidren would bave the property as his re, Under this staie of facts she lett fim, and since ust, 1876, been living with irieuds in Bixth street, She did pot jet the matter rest here. Saspicious of the delendant’s ndel- ity to bis marriage vow she employed de- tectives and had him watched, Their report cou- firmed her suspicions, and thereupon, turough her mn perfectly upright pri! George F, Langbein, she commenced this action la April last for a divorce on the ground of adultery, The Court sent the case belore a reterce, who reported in favor of the piaintifl. The vetend- ant, through bis counsel—Freuerick G. Anderson, Jonn Pannes and Mr, meron—opposed the plaintiff step by step. Upon their objection the case was sent back 19 the releree to take proof as to whether the plaintiff! had ever been sued for a divorce, and whether there was now a divorce in favor of the defendaut against the plain- Wf. ‘The referee again reported in favor of the pluin- tf, and Mr, Langbein thea moved tor tinal judgment ry cree in Her favor, Which the Court grauted, as stated above, and under which she is now a iree and presumably happy woman once more.
