LAW---THIS DAY. COURT OF DIVORCE. (Before the Judge Ordinary.) BROWN V. BROWN. This was a petition presented by the wife against her husband, praying for dissolution of marriage on the ground of cruelty and adultery. There was no opposition. The parties were cousins, and they eloped to Scotland, where they were married in June, 1854. They afterwards returned to England, where the marriage ceremony was performed according to the form of the Established Church, and after that they went to reside at Berwick-upon-Tweed, where Brown's father, with whom he was in partnership, carried on the business of a plasterer. The habits of the respondent became very irregular, in consequence of which the partnership with his father was dissolved. Mr. and Mrs. Brown came to London in 1855, and took up their residence with petitioner's mother. The respondent's tem per became very violent, and Brown was in the habit, while under the influence of drink, of striking his wife. The conduct of the respondent became so violent that she was compellad to leave him in August, 1859. There was one child living. _ _ Witness having proved the statements in the petition, The court decreed a rule nisi, with costs, directing the mother should have custody of the child. DERBY PROPHECIES, WALDON V. WALDON. This was a petition presented by the husband, who sued for a dissolution of marriage, on the ground of adultery. The petitioner was a compositor, and, in 1857, in conse quence of ill-health, he was compelled to go to Southamp ton, where he remained for about 10 months, during which (FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) The Derby I shall refer to at length on Monday. My present impression is that if any thing beats The Marquis it will be Buckstone. When The Marquis was at 20 to 1 for the Derby and 10 to 1 for the Two Thousand, I strongly advised him to be backed for both his engagements, and those who acted on my advice must now have rare good " edging" for their money, as will be seen from the follow ing remarks which appeared in The Sun of March 3 : " The Marquis has completely recovered his temper, and he will be a better favourite for the Two Thousand before long. Remember the Tom Bowline and Wizard Trial two years ago, when The Wizard was sent to 25 to 1 before the day of the race, which made Tom first favourite up to within an hour of starting, when half a point less was taken about Lupellus. The Wizard's price at starting was 25 to 1, and he won easily by three lengths, and poor Tom was third last. So my advice is not to be gulled again, as The Mar quis is undoubtedly the best horse in Scott's stable, and, if he only keeps well, will lee very formidable both for the Two Thousand and Derby." A FRESH MAN. time he never cohabited with his wife. On his return to London he discovered his wife was enciente. She admitted the adultery, but refused to give up the name of the adulterer. He subsequently discovered that the name of the man was Harriott, and ever since his wife had left his (petitioner's) house she had been living in adultery with him. The Court made a decree nisi. The following are the concluding remarks of the various London sporting writers : " BEACON" ' —Bell' s Life. Having thus summed up the pretensions of every likely candidate, it will be seen that I am strongly prepossessed in favour of The Marquis, Neptunus, and Caterer, and as I see no reason to doubt the Whitewall horse staying the course quite as well as either of the others, I give a slight preference to THE MARQUIS, believing that if the trio should be destined to defeat by an outsider, Schehallion may achieve the distinction, " RHYMING RICHARD"—BeII's Life. But as they draw towards the Stand, Two horses struggle for command. Neptunus, wiry, stout, and strong, Steals like the viewless wind along, And thundering fiercely on his track Gleams out " the yellow and the black," Those colours which stern Fate's decree Bade vainly float o'er game Dundee, The hum that for a apace did fail Now trebly thundering swells the gale, And "Buckstone" is the cry; But ere the words have left the lip See his jock's uplifted whip, And Bullock's gleaming eye Again the Fates unkindly slack To bless "the yellow and the black," Deny the victor's throne I " The ribbon," and the deathless wreath, And the hoarse crowd's applauding breath, NEPTUNUS—are thine own!

She did not live with her husband 12 months, as about three months after marriage he began his ill-treatment, in consequence of her receiving one of her sisters, who came on a visit. On that cc casion he gave her two black eyes. A few months atter that he took up the carving knife and made her go down on her knees and swear no one had been in the house since he had left. She remonstrated with him about his conduct but he continued to illtreat her. lie used also to level a gun at her and threaten to shoot her, and one Sun day she recollected him taking a whip with which he flogged her. The Judge—Did he strike sharply ? Witnesss—Yes, very. The Judge -Ordinary—And leave marks ? Witness—Yes• The Judge-Ordinary—Did anybody see them ?

She screamed out and her brother came to her assistance and took her away. Her husband struck her two or three days from her confinement because she had permitted her father to keep her. In a short time after she got about again be threatened to murder her. He made her kneel down to say her prayers as he said he intended.

The Court made a decree nisi. POLICE ---THIS DAY. BOW-STREET, THIS DAY. ASSAULTING A MARRIED WOMAN.— George Holiday was placed before Mr. Come charged with assaulting Elizabeth Hewson. The complainant said, last evening, she was passing through Trafalgar-square, and from wh a t s h e sa w w as induced to believe th at the prisoner intended robbing an old soldier, who she afterwards found had two medals and a quantity of money on his person, as he had . just returned from India. She refused to leave the soldier until she saw him in safety, when the prisoner struck her two blows on the chest. She culled out s and two or three persons came to her assistance. Phineas Yewen said he was near the spot at the time when he was attracted by a small crowd of persons, and on going up saw prisoner strike the woman a violent blow on the chest. William Westcott, a private in the Coldstream Gnarls, said the complainant called out to him to protect an old soldier, who was about being robbed. He went up, and saw the prisoner aim a blow at the complainant. Ho warded it off, and then in consequence of the violent con duct of the prisoner he held him until a policeman cams up. The prisoner denied:the charge, and said the complainant had suspected him without a cause, and it was in conse quence of the bad names that she had called him that he struck her. The magistrate fined him 20s. for the assault. MARLBOROUGH •STREET, THIS DAY. MURDEROUS ASSAULT.—MichaII Zumpf, a German tailor, living in West. street, Golden.squarc, was charged with stabbing a Pole, named Johann Rochell, a carver, of Silver-street, with a knife; an Charles Iredall, a tailor living in Carnaby-street, was also charged with assaulting the prosecutor. Mr. Chalres Albert interpreted the evidence, which was given in German. The prosecut©r said ho was passing Zumpf's house a little after 32 last night, when he knocked at the door wanting to speak to Zumpf's wife, and when he had one foot in the doorway, Zumpf rushed upon him with a knife in his hand, the knife ly , ing about a foot long. He (Rochell) seized Zumpf's hand, but could not hold him, and Zumpf then struck him in the cheek with the knife, and retreated into the house. Prosecutor fell, but afterwards got up and ran into a court, where he received a severe blow on the head, and while on the ground he was kicked several times by five or six persons, among them being Iredall. He afterwards met an officer and gave the prisoners in charge. He went to Dr. Duncan's, in Cambridge-street, having lost a large quantity of blood, and had his wounds dressed. He knew no cause for the attack, not knowing the prisoner, In answer to the magistrate, the prosecutor said he was acquainted with Zumpf's wife, and used to visit her two or three times a week, but never saw Zumpf there. Zumpf asked the prosecutor whether he had not forbid den him the house, as he (Zumpf) was a marzied man and had a daughter, but prosecutor denied it. Louisa Zumpf, daughter of prisoner, said her father did not live with her mother, He had been abroad, and her mother had got a protection order. He came to the house yesterday evening and most evenings. The witness corrobrated the prosecutor's statement. Weeks, C division, proved taking prisoner into custody. Prosecutor first gave Iredall into custody and afterwards Zumpf, wbo denied doing it. There was a great quantity of bl hod outside Mrs. Zumpf's door, but he could find no instrument. He heard Mrs, Zumpf say Rochell should come when he liked. Remanded. THAMES, THIS DAY. UNLAWFUL POSSESSION or TEN SOVEREIGNS. THE Two GERMANS.—Heinrich Meyer was brought up on remand before Mr. Woolzych, charged with stealing 10 sovereigns, the moneys of Freidenbach Hassenbuttel. The parties are German sugar-bakers, and the very anti podes of each other. They were both living in the same house at No. 1, Neptune-street, Wellclose-square, up to the 21st of May. The prosecutor, an industrious, frugal, and sober man, had saved upwards of £2O, and a few days before the robbery had paid £9, half the passage-money to New Zealand. The remainder of his hard earned savings were in his trunk in his bed-room. On Wednesday evening, the 21st of May, the prisoner absconded from his lodgings, and under particularly suspicious cir cumstances. On the same night Hassenbuttel missed his gold from his box. SuspiciOn fell on the prisoner im mediately, and information was given to the police. In spector Graham, of the Thames division, traced the prisoner to the Howe, a foreign steamship, trading between Bremen and London, and lying off Horsleydown• The vessel was sear ched, but the prisoner co uld not be discovered. On the following overhauledmorn morning Inspector Graham and his boat's crew againe Howe, and found the prisoner doubled up and se creted under the bowspit. The inspector could obtain no tidings of the ten sovereigns until yesterday, when the chief mate of the Howe, a German, admitted that the prisoner came on board the Howe on the evening of the 21st instant, and gave ten sovereigns, which he requested him to take care of. He consented to do so. He afterwards returned to the pri soner one sovereign. The other nine sovereigns were pro duced by Inspector Graham, and the chief mate of the vessel said they were given to him by the prisoner. It also appeared that the prisoner took up and left in Hessen brittle's chest a Bank of England note, and that he told the officer he should have taken thit if he had known the value of it. Early on the morning of May 21 he let fall a bundle of his own wearing apparel from the staircase win dow of the house, 1, Neptune-street, The bundle fell close to the feet of a Spanish boy, named Carlos Bitango, The prisoner's object was to lead the people in the house to very b e li e ve that he had also been robbed as well as his country man, clumsily indeed, and he left It was also proved that the hispo but s h England a few months, that h e was very poor when he left Germa ny , and that he had ly b een living beyond his m eans. prisoner own er w e h a a t d c h went on in his beenwo work in y cheat.Ee rn Mr. Woolrych was very glad the money was recovered, and ordered it to be given up to the prosecutor.

Having thus descanted upon the merits and demerits of every likely candidate, and endeavoured to lay before my readers, to the best of my ability, the views I entertain of each competitor, it only remains for me now to give my final selection for the event, the issue of which is involved in much difficulty, and, sink or swim, rise OT fall, I cannot desert my "old love," but still ass art that my faith, although partially shaken, remains firmly attached to the house of " Merry," believing that BUCKSTONE on Wednesday next will be hailed the winner of England's blue riband for 1862; whilst the three most worthy of being supported for places are Caterer, Neptunus, and Carac tacus.

(From the St. Louis Democrat.) George Q. Ph e l ps , Esq., a n elderly gentleman, and an old reside n t o f U n i on City, Illino i s, arr i ved here from that city last Thursday, in anxious search of a missing and erring daughter. After some inquiries, he called upon the Chief of Police, and requested his aid in the pursuit. The daughter left home about two months ago, in charge of two young men, her cousins, in whom Mr. Phelps had complete confidence. They were to escort her to St. Louis, to the home of her brother, an engineer on a steamer in the Government service. As weeks passed away, and no letter or intelligence was received from her, her father became exceedingly solicitous, yet enter- tained not the slightest suspicion that she was not at her brother's residonce in thin city. One day in the streets of Quincy, he met a youn g m a n w h o informed him that his daughter Maria was in an assignation hou,,c3 in St. Louis. The incredulousfather indignantly deman ded p roof for so humiliat ing a statement,upon which the young man decl are d that he had himself seen her at the place he had stated. Mr. Phelps took the first train for this city and on arriving proceeded immediately to the house of his son. The latter was absent down the riv er. Surprised and alarmed at the old man's tremulous inquiries, his daughter-in-law could only say that Maria came there about seven or eight weeks ago, paid a transient visit, and left, as she supposed, to return home. Such substantially was the account given by the father at the police-office. Upon learning the facts, one of the detectives thought he knew the girl, and could find her. He was dispatched for the purpose Meanwhile a telegram was sent to Quincy, t o th e young man who had communicated the information in that city, requesting him to answer at once, and to give the locality of the assignation house to which he referred. Pending the reply, and at about 11 o'clock on Thursday night, the officer returned ham, the house in Green-street, bringing a young anti beautiful girl, but who proved not the erring one especially sought for. She, however, evidently believed that her own friends had sent for her, and from her manner, betrayed that she had only quite recently left her home and friends. She expressed mortification and deep sorrow at the course she had pursued, declared that her condition was most mise rable, and avowed a willingness to be sent anywhere rather than go back to the place from which she had just been taken. She was accordingly con-. ducted to the " House of the Good Shepherd." An answering telegraphic message from Quincy, soon stated that the daughter was probably at No. 3, Christy-avenue. Thither two officers at once pro ceeded, and quickly returned with her in custody. She was a blue-eyed and fair-haired girl of about 17 years, elegantly and tastefully attired, yet in her countenance exhibiting intense mental torture. Prior to ber arrival the father was conducted to the Police Chief's privateroom, of which the door was left ajar— a room adjoining that in which she entered. To the chief's inquiries she at first responded with re- reserve and caution, but finding that he knew her history, horst into tearo, and con eased Imsrself lost, yet said she desired to be permanently removed from the house she had just left. Learning that her father knew all, she begged not to be taken home, and to be spared an interview with him. At last she was led to her aged father in the next room, where a scene too heart-rending for dccrip tion followed. The sobs and agony of the old man and his daughter can be imagined tnu , Sn better than we can depict them. She gratefully accepted his offer to take her back to her home. They went to a hotel for the night, and yesterday afternoon left the city. It transpired that the perfidious young men took her first to the St. Charles Hotel, and that subse quently she was removed to the place from which she was rescued. Painful though it is to chronicle or peruse such a story as the above, it yet affords to parents, guar dians, and youth, a much-needed lesson and warn ing. " STABLE MotTsE."—Era. But I am too long delaying you from the account of the interview in the Malton Stable that I spoke of at the be ginning of my letter. There were several tip-top swells present, and the Wizard of the North exhibited the great Derby crack to them, and explained his points. " I say if ever I had a Derby horse under my care, that is one," said he. "What sort of ground, John, will he like best 1"" in quired one of the swells. " Why, he will like it a trifle hard, but anything will suit him but mud. If it's mud on the day, why then of course all our calculations will be upset, because in that case it will not be which can go the fastest, but which has got the broadest feet. And lam afraid," he continued, looking out of the stable door, " that it looks very like mud for the Derby Day." " But you think, if it's fine, that he will be all right I' inquired one of the gentlemen. "All right I" replied the Wizard, "give me the Downs in good racing order, and I will snap my fingers at everything. When we get to the distance post he will have disposed of everything except Bucketone. It will then look like a match between the two, but in the end we shall knock the Actor over." Such was the opinion o f the Wizard, and, therefore, I go for THE MARQUIS. " DERBY ALPHABET." —.Era. Gone amiss, and scratched out now is Old Calabar, Or first in the lot he'd be counted by far; So THE MARQUIS shall first as the winner be reckoned, With Buckstone to finish a very fair second : For Caterer the third place we boldly assign, And Neptunus pronounce to bo fourth in the line ; On Wingrave we venture for fifth place to fix, And Ensign just fills up the number of six.

" NEmo."—Norning Advertiser. Although I may stand alone in my selection, which I think will be the case unless so me of my prophetic bre thren " eat their own words," let me at once throw out my representatives in alphabetical order, thus : ARGONAUT, BUCKSTONE, CATERER, with no small amount of assurance that I shalll nxious yt success have re tained the winner in t hat trio, and feeling doub a in the present instanc e for a zepetition of the greas that has followel up m y divinations in all my " sing le" selections for the great races. Although it last is per time haps et ask ing the fickle goddess too much, yet for the lme take my reputation on BUCKSTONE. " CourisELLon."—Sporting News. Merely reiterating the opinion I expressed last week, I will say that my fancy points to ZETLAND or BUCKSTONE as the most likely to carry off the "blue riband" of 1862 , and if they are overthrown, I think Caterer is the most likely one to effect it. " OBSERVER"—FieId. It will by seen from the above remarks, how strongly prepo ssz . s ed I am in favour of the winner of th e T w o Thousand. ilad as Ido not think my arguments can be easily refuted, I need not take up any more time by pre dieting THE MARQUIS as the winner of this rich Derby ; and next to him I shall e xpect to find Buckstone and Caterer. " FLT-BY-NIGHT"— W eekly Times. I will conclude by expressing a firm conviction that the three present favourites will obtain honourable mention from the Judge, and (though I have a wholesome dread of the.lialton crack) relying with considerable confidence 100 100 100 all all cc ArGUß"—Sporting _Life. I have now examined patiently the claims of every ani mal likely to face the starter, and can see no cause to depart from what I have so long relied upon being fulfilled. I have shown that THE MARQUIS ought to win, and firmly believe in my own mind that ho will win. He is the best public performer in the race, bar none; he carries the full confidence of his stable, and all the money that could be scraped together at Milton. Should no accident befall him, should he escape Klarikoff's mishap at the post last year, we are bound to conclude, as shown in ray arguments, that he will win, and easily, too. I am persuaded that he will beat all the other favourites, but shall be prepared to see ZETLAND and CATERER in company with John Scott's horse at the finish. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.
