NORTHAMPTON MRETHW—TvaiitAy. 4-

THE STASES DAT.
After the earinnous amber- ell "difeiMmebo" mestine
which ban been crowded into the spin of the peessee,
season, the lint grand tethering which usually attraora all
the aristocratic estrus of sport was bailed with delight, and.
thou who reserved themselves tecommeaes the mem at the
shrine of et. Csispin had roues to inagresalate themselves
on having mimed the miserable weather width aeuespanied
the Doncaster god other spring meetings. All fears that
the manually small soeeptues for the Northaniptoeshini
Stakes would reader the meeting less attractive were dis-
sipated early on Monday, when limiters commenced tourism

baspoime. The shamefulbleak mail usually levied the
lodeiag.houu-keepers formed no eruption the pre-
seta inarance. The early morn of Tuoiday was
cloudy sad cold, and the "early birds" who visited
the course to see the various oracles do their week
discussed the probability of the day being fine. Tice sun
however seen broke through the clouds, and a more brit. ,
liens day was never witnessed The sport was amazed to I
commence at one, but the crowds of visitors who &travail ,
the morning trains wended their way to the course,
was all alive before 19 °Week. The inflamer of the grateful
cis of the sun seemed to inspirit all, and the larks carolled
y in their. The programme of the day included 9 rum
being coloured on the mud for "The Stakes." Tbe
sea-
eation movement of the morning was the scratching el Mall
Train at 11.15, thee eddies another to the lot of blows the
backers have met with in coneeidoe with this race by the
disgraceful "milking "of certain animals. The Trial Slakes,
for which tea appeared ea the card, tempted the whole lot
to the poet. The talent, who stood the Cesanwiteb
champion. met with • disappointment, the moms of the
Boy in Yellow on Wild Charley heeling a stimulating
effect on the position of Liddingtou for the Derby, about
whom 5 to 1 was the tithed offer. Bah:mock, the property
of the popular Epsom squire, won the Neu Handicap, and
after a Selling race, the Pytchley Stakes, bed bees run off,
the Stand Plate, whirl got up the agony for the big event,
resulted in Golden Dust sad Damns running • dead beat.
Upon the numbers of 16 being hoisted for the Stakes,
the din of the fielders to bet on the field became met
deafening. The fact of the hopes of Diumbury, John Davis,
being such • hot favourite, did not Prevent several
others being freely supported, and Swordsman, with the
favourite Jemmy °Amebae in the saddle, was sup-
ported at 7 to 2, bat is his preliminary canter he
west most ungenerously, and quite shook the wall-
dome of a select few, who booked victory " •

though defeated, he ran a good game hone. The view I,

he' eciaratlott charged the dole t. fut, with having
ea the plaintiff to be falsely imprisooed ; lecallis with
having converted plaiallrs property to his 0111 les.
Then were several plass in replieatsoe, the defendant deny-
ing the had caused the false imprisonment, and alleging
that bought the property from plaintiff's wife, whom
Ms p haft had badly
_mod and left destitute. To this
plaintiff replied that defendant knew the property to be
that of the plaintiff's, sad that his wife had 2001. a year in
her own right, and could sot therefore be cossiderod des-
titute. _
Ths plaintiffs cam, stated by Mr. Aspinall, Q.C., was
that in Jetta» 1864, 'he married Mrs. Clarke, a widow, at
Bristol. Hit wife went with Ma to Cowes, leaving sonic of
her fund*, at Bristol, and they lived together until May.
1864. She. thole left him, returned to Bristol, and after-
wards went to Liverpool, where she famished a lodgiog.
house first at Soho, and afterwards in Eastbourao-strait.
Evertor. The Liter house was taken in the name of Mr.
ifforion, the defendant, a married man. Plaintiff tread
her to Liverpool, and, aocompaniad by his son, went to the
house in Eantboassaatosek whirs be remained until he wss
turned ontjtetho defendant sod a somber of poop». On
the following day (January 23) the defendant gave plain-
tiff into custody on a charge of having broken into hie
house and stoles his furniture, bat the charge was dis-
missed by Mr. Raffles, the stipendiary magistrate. Mr. Aspi-
nall dwelt epos the injury which the plaintiff had sustained
by the exposure at she police court, and observed that the
defendant should have known that whatever property Mrs.
Kernott had belonged also to her husband. He denied
that any cruelty had been exercined by Mr. Karoo* sod
said if such had been the ease the wife could have obtained
protection foe herself and her y in the usual way.
After the opening of the tiff's cue, tha judge sug-
gested a settlement out of court, as thus • grmt deal of ex.
posers and sandal might be avoided.
Mr. Aspinall said there were cross-suits in another mart,
where everything would be made public.
Mr. M'Oisbeay added that there was not much feeling to
be hurt, or moth of ectioo on either aide.
Mr. Aspinall said that if the plaintiff could sae his way to
keep the matter oat of court he would muck prefer to
do so.
The plaintiff, in his evidence, denied that he bad given
his wife any mese of complaint. She bad • fearful temper,
and he found latter she had left him that she had robbed
him of everything. After she came to Liverpool he
lived with her for three weeks in Christian-street, and
treated her with the greatest kindness, but she used to
knock his head against the wall. She would drink half-a-
pint of gin at a tines, and then throw the glass at his heed.
Other witnesses proved the main facts of the plaintiff's
case.
On the part of the defendant it was admitted that the
defendant bad acted illegally in giving the plaintiff into
custody, bat it was contended that under the circumstances
the very smallest cols would sufficiently compensate him.
The ,dafsedant, it was alleged, had supported the plaintiff's
wife and educated her children when the plaintiff had de-
serted her ; and he had honestly bought the furniture (part
of which had never belonged to the plaintiff) to enable her
to pay the debts and live.
The plaintiff's wife was called, and stated that the
plaintiff had used her with great cruelty while
she lived with him. He had boon nearly always
Mack, commencing drinking at ea early hour in
the morning. He would hammer the piano keys with a
stick, curse and swear, call her bad names, break the tbiogs,
and otherwise annoy her. He did not strike her, but he
frequently threw her down, tripping bar up with his foot
and mashing her upon her back. She was often covered
with bruises. She left him on that accouut, and west to
her mother at Bristol She sent word to the plaintiff that
she bad sold the furniture. When she want to live with
him theism& in Liverpool he began to thaw her as before,
and the took • summons out against him for eassult. He
left her, she returned to her mother, and afterwards west to
Liverpool again, and took a house in Soboatreet in the
name of Smith, for the purpose of eluding the
plaintiff. She passed es a widow, and when the
house did not sewer she sold the furniture to
the defendant for 1474 He removed it to Esatbourne-
Buses, end allowed her to stay there till she could get a
situation.

In crosrexamination by Mr. Aspinall, Mrs. Karoo< said
she bad written the following letter to the plaintiff from
Clifton (Bristol), after she had left on amount of his cruelty:
"Prospect-place, Durdhatx-down (received 27th Aug.,1864).
My &meet Charlie,-1 have this moment received your
dear kind letter, and madly you have not been absent from
my thoughts sines we parted. Note down in your memo-
randum-book Tuesday, 23rd of August ; if our little girl
shames to have escaped from certain causes which were
then at issue, I think we are safe now of our anticipations.
I have so many times, pictured the happy moments of last
Tuesday and Wednesday, and pictured to myself our ex-
treme happiness dying is each other's arms. Princes
would envy our happiness, and yet we do not apprecuts it
ourselves until we are separated from each other for a time,
aed I hope now we shalt not be severed loam I arrived
in Bristol very comfortably. I have seep no one but Mr.
Crosby and Miss Shirley. Mr. Crosby isgotog to Southampton
next week, and says he should like to crate over and sea
you and call oat the children ; he may return the same day,
but should he sleep there would you kindly give him a bed.
I almost feel inclined to accompany him myself, I do so
want to see my own property again. I have scarcely re-
covered the last fall I had in the arms of my dear Charlie.
I should much like Mr. 0. to come down, if only for a few
hours ; he would thee see without interruption how happy
my dear husband and me could be alone left to ourselves.
I will write and tell you if he thinks of coming. Now do,
my dear, answer this per return of post. I hope you are
happy dwelling upon the thoughts of the blissful future.
I do tot think I shall see any one is Bristol
but mother until I see you again. With thou-
sand of kisses, and fondest love from your affectionate
wife, ELIZA." She had also written the following :—"3.
Upper Berkel-place. (Lotter received September 9, 1864.)
—My dearest Cbarles,—l am in receipt of your letter of the
17th, in which you wish your wife was with you. I have a
nice letter written to prat to you, but am waiting for my
last. Did you not understand my last letter, in which I stated
we would exchange them, and per return of poet you will
receive another letter that will please you much more than
that if possible ; likewise you shall know my mind. Hoping
you will enjoy yourself and improve your health by the
change, with kindest love and kisses from your for ever
affectionate wife, Eliza. I will send a long letter per return
of post, when I bear from you." She knew a lawyer's
Mark named Topham, and be had written the following
letter to her :—" Talbot Chambers, 3. Feowick-street.
Liverpool, 13th August, 1864.—My leer Mmlame,—Mr.
Wynne informs me that you are about taking a house in
your name (last). This will be bad ; it matters not what
name you take a house in, if you adopt any name connected
with yourself, your husband eau walk in and lay
his heeds upon the furniture. I would recom-
mend you to get a house furnished (imaginary)
by some one who would stand by the bargain. He should
advertise the house to be let furnished. You can answer
the advertisement, and so the matter will stand. If there
are any articles the doctor can swear to, get them altered a
little in colour or shape, or sell them by auction after you
get them here. You had better take apartments for a week
or so rather than plunge into difilculties, You may cool-
mend my name and services freely. Apologising for my
intrusion, I remain your well-wisher, Hoaxer UPHAM.
. P.S. If you please you can address me there Mr. Wynne."
The learned Judge asked Mr. WCiebray how he could
hope to struggle suooessfully against this. It wae evident
that whatever cruelty there might have been had been
condoned by these letters. He thought the justice of the
ease would be met by a verdict for the value of the fur-
niture.
After consultation, the learned counsel agreed to this
course, and
The jury found a verdict for the plaintiff—damages, 140 f.
