that there had been no quarrel bet weft them. All hoc
fun returned when sexed to give a remote for defend- ,

possession gave the answer that be was •' flirting &boat

with laughter, in width the defendant joins& In feet

behind Lis menet. and on the left of ha attorney
—Mr. M. C. Weston, while on his right was
Mr. GUes Symonds, the plaintiffs attorney. Sot
he was eat animated, and at several points in the
evidence, leant forward and addressed his counsel, or
talked energetically to the solicitors on each side.
Perhaps the first little bit of 'Adana that ad the
ladies heads In motion, was when Ile defendant's
worldly wisdom as revealed in his sags advice to his
inamorata to get "ready money" for the stuck-te-
trads and goodwill of her ; but the gossiping,
and curious looks &recited towards the defendant then,
were nothing to the indignant glances darted at him
when plaintiff elated that he had rallied on her to
reti.th the little presents he bad given her. It was
rather turned the other way, when it appeared she had
given him • "crooked stspenee for love and for look."
The lady b,re kerma well until that delicate subjest of
age was touched on by Mr. Cols, when • little rullied,
she declined to tell Mr. Beech's age, and whoa peened
as to her own, the advised Mr. Cole not to be so rude,
leftism herein bath against the pillar, and hardening
her heart at Mr. Cole's questions. It was with some
difficulty that she was got to Leaver, what were the
words spoken on the fatal Sunday evening when the
breech begat. Defendant left her ompary to
speak to Mr. Grove, and on his returning she asked
him why he weed away. She admitted speaking rather
sharply, when defendant inked her why the spoke to
him like that, sod wondered if she would dictate
to hiro before marriage what would it be after.
These naive statements created, as may be supposed,
roan of laughter; tut t'..e sympathy of the ladies
appeared to be awakened at haring that that man
never spoke to Matter they parted that evening." The
evidence of the witnesses was of rather • dull character
except that of Min gums Jecieb., who appears, when
celled upon by the defendant to " pay her footing" in
plaintiff's shop, to have bandied question and rej firths
with the lively widower in a very gay maieuer,end indeed
this witty young lady was the means of elieitiog perhaps
the meet direct ocafirmatory midtown forhortrtend,the
plaintiff. Mr. Kingdon'a summing-up was rather •
solemn prodestiaa,as he &premed the "Meniting" way
In which Mr. Cole had cross-examined Mies Gretorl,
and hinted that any breath of promise ho sudden as
this wee likely to east some soirpicion on the lady's
reputation; bet the lather of the circuit humorously
tuned off the charge, by saying that be wanted to
provide some fun for the ladies out of • dull ease, seeing
that not a slie kiss, not • single inseam of the arm
around tbe waist, could be produced. His Lordship ,
emceed up in a Mk/LOW more atreful than amusing, and
the tory disappointed many of the ladies by finding fee
plaintiff for only Z 75, whisks, however, will wary
oasts. Now for details of the ease :
Mr. Pinder said in this ease Ana North Gregory was
the plalatiff, and Joo. Witteredgs Beath the defeadant,
and the &stunting states that the plaintiff and dram.
slant agreed to marry one another; that a reasonable
time has elapsed, that plaintiff is ready sad willing to
marry defendant, bat that defoliant has neglested and
refused to marry the plaintiff. The defendant simply
pleaded that he did not make tits promise.
Kr. Kingdom said, Gentlemen of the jury, you will
have aollested from the statesseet nude by my friend,
Mr. hada, that this Is an Mime brought by Miss
Grego', smiled Mr. Beath to recover damages for
what is known as a *gash of promise of marriage. The
plaintiff Is a lady of mature yeas who has for some
ears corded on In the High-street of this town the

Berlin wool, and the has so earthed on that badness as
to gala the raped and esteem of all persona with Mom

and she married • rsspectabls gentleman named Fades,
who carries on the badno. of a bating and coal-
wheat in this town. On plaintiff's sister settling in
Dorchester, the plaintiff some to Dorchester and
serried on banner there, and she has dons
It, as I bare said, so as to wattle her to
the reamed of all who know her. The defend-
ant, Mr. Beath, has been for 31) peen the supervisor of '

defendant, I believe, is rather older than the plaintiff,
Mae Gregory, and in all respects the meta was
approved by his friends and by bar% and there could ,
be no doubt if carried out, it might have been prodso-
tive of mush happiness, as well is menfort. In the
month of June, 1869, the defendant began visiting at
the home of Mrs. Podia, plaintiff's sister, and while
there he ma latrodueed to the plated'. Nothing
