MATRIMONIAL VARIATIONS.

Robert Mason, a middle-aged man, was charged with
assaulting his wife, who exhibited a very bad black eye,
and walked lamely. The defendant also had a black eye:
Complainant—My husband and me often has a " varia-
tion." He has been in a bad temper for a week, lays a
bed, and won't work. I don't want to hurt him for this
variation, but he knocked me about shocking, and I gave
him no provocation. When we go out together we always
drink, and are very comfortable. I went to a funeral
yesterday, and when I came back he said nothing would
satisfy him but my blood, and he would drink it.
Mr. Selfe--Ah ! you go out drinking together.(Laughter.)
Complainant—We hadn't been drinking yesterday.
Mr. Selfe —And you had been to a funeral. Come, now,
hau know you have been here before. What did you
ve to drink yesterday ?
Complainant—A little brandy and cloves. About two
half-quarterna. He flew at me like a tiger, pat his hand
upon my mouth, pinched my nose, and tried to strangle
me. I bit him, and he cut my eye with a sharp dragging
instrument, not with a blow.
Mr. Selfe—Was that after you bit him! He was trying
to draw yor teeth, perhaps.
Complainant—Yea, it was after I bit him.
Defendant—When she came from the funeral she flew at
me like a wild beast, and ill-used me as you see.
Complainant—Don't believe him. Look at my eye.
Mr. Selfe—How did he get "an eye to match?"
(Laughter.) Had he been to the funeral!
Complainant—He had not.
Mr. Belfe—l thought he might have been, as you are
both "in mourning." (Much laughter.)
Complainant—He ran his head against the door, and
got his black eye. Mine was punched out.
Mr. Selfe—He was trying to prevent your biting by
drawing your teeth. (Much laughter.)
A policeman proved that the complainant, although
injured, was under the influence of liquor.
Mr. Belie said he would not act upon the unsupported
evidence of the wife, and adjourned the case for further
testimony.

-A MORKON lIA23IAOL

ETON •. HYDE AND

This morning Mr J. P. Wilde delivered judgment
ia this ewe :—The petitioner claims • dimolutice of
his 'marriage on the grod of the adultery of his
wife. The alleged marriage was untrained at Utah, in
the territories of the United Slates of Amiens, and the
petitioner and respondent both profaned the Merman faith
sh the time. The petitions: ha eines quitted Utah and 'ban-
dossed that faith, but the o dsst has set. After the pa
tioner bad left Utah tbs wee din:reed from him,
=tly in accordance with the law obtaining among the
is. and has since taken another husband. This is the
adultery oomplaked of. Wore the petitioner could ob-
tain the relief he seeks some matters would have to be
made clear and others explained. The marriage, as it is called,
would have to be established as binding by the lex loci—his
divorce would have to be determined void, and the yeti-
tiseer's conduct in wilfully separating himself from his
wife would have to be accounted for. But I expressed at
the hearing • strung doubt whether the union of men
and women as monied and adopted among the
Mormons was really a marriage in the Knee under-
stood in ibis the matrimonial court of England, and
whether persons so united could be wondered " hus-
band* and "wife" in the seam in which these words mart
be labsrproted in the Divorce Act. Further reduction has
crainned this doubt, and has unified me that this court
cannot properly exercise any jurisdiction over such
union. In conformity with these views the wart most
reject the prayer of this petition, bet I may tabs
the occasion of Iwo observing that this decision is
twallsod to that object. This smart does not profess to
&aids twos the right of onotowdoe or legitimacy which it
might Ist proper to award to the isms of polygamous
nor upon the rights or obligations is rth to
their piano= which people living under the sanction of
such anima may have crested for themselves. All that is
iateaded to be here decided is that as between each other
they an not ontitlad to the remedies, the adjudkation, or
the relief of the Matrimonial Oust of Ragland,

MURDER AT PORTSMOUTH.

A brutal murder wan committed in the borough
of Portsmouth early yesterday morning. The name of the
victim is Caroline !Moreland, and she is represented to have
been the wife of a seaman serving on board the Victoria,
flag-ship, in the Mediterranean. She was a woman of direct.
late habits, about 27 years of age, and lived in Caledodian-
place, Hereford-street, Fratton•path, Landport. She was
observed to leave her house about 11 o'clock on Thursday
night, at that time being apparently quite sober. Nothing
more was heard or seen of her by the neighbours,
until about 20 minutes put two o'clock in the morning,
when • woman living next door, named Bennett, was
awoke by sounds of quarrelling in the deceased's house, sa
if the woman was being ill-used. She then heard • scream
of " Murder," and the exclamation, " Oh !" followed by
unusual stillness. Although several neighbours were
aroused by the same cries, it does not appear that anybody
west to the woman's assistance. Shortly after the sounds
had ceased, Mrs. Bennett beard what appeared to be the
heavy steps of • man and the outer door close. The woman
did not make her appearance at the usual hour yesterday
morning, and as the day wore on the suspicions of her
neighbours were aroused. An entrance was at lest effected
through the rear of the premises, and the woman was disco.
vered lying upon her back in the lower room of the house,
with her dress in such a condition as to indicate the nature
of the assault which had been made upon her. Her head
was encircled in • pool of blood, end, although there were
no appearances to indicate the infliction of deadly wounds
with any sharp instrument, her features were so much
swollen and disfigured by bruises that identification was
almost impossible. She harl, indeed, been literally beaten
to death. Information was, of course, given to the police,
and it is said that anspicima nets upon a man in whose com-
pany the deemed was seen on the previoia night.

PENIANISM IN AMERICA.

At New York, General Sweeney ban issued an
appeal to the Fenian not to wade their energies in in.
testine sttife. He says—" Let deeds not words be your
motto. Strike before it is too late, and the golden op-
portunity is lost. Our situation is that of two armies
whose chiefs cannot agree upon a hoe of operatioos.
The vast extent of the British dominions offers many
vital points, and as we cannot reconcile our views, let
each follow his chosen general, and attack where his
judgment tells him are the best chances of success. Let
this disgraceful squabble cease at once. Oa the field of
battle we will forget personal rancour and factional preja.
dice to remember only our country and her wrongs. Out
of oar difficulties I can see but one way to neaps ; it is to
call in each State • Convention of delegates from different
circles to decide in whom they wil' repose confidence, and
than in silence allow Colonel O'Mahoney and myself each
to work out his respective plan for the freedom of Ireland."
The Fenian Congress assembled at New York on the 22nd.
A guard from the 99th O'Maboney regiment of militia
refused admission to all not provided with credentials. The
state centre, Mr. Rogers, of the Manhattan district, called
the body to order, and Major Kelly, of Indiana, was appointed
chairman of the congress. Resolutions sustaining Colonel
Oldahoney were adopted, and congress proceeded to the
transaction of other bruises', the nature of which has not yet
transpired. There were two plenipotentiaries from Ire.
land present, who stated that they brought letters from
Stephens, who is now in Paris. Previous to the opening of
the Congress, Messrs. Messy, Sinnott and Mullen. of the
Fenian Senate, met at the Senate headquarters in puram.
mom to the regular adjournment of Nov. 7, bat there not
being • quorum present adjourned. Report says two
English detectives were discovered and refused admission
to the Congress.
At a meeting at Chicago on the 2nd, of the Fenian,, com-
posed of officers who have served in the Union army, re.
solutions were adopted supporting General Sweeney, sad
urging him to call a military convention at some central
locality. A resolution was also adopted that both of the
contending parties who now divide the brotherhood now
give way in favour of General Sweeney and the military
directors. Forty officers signed the malodors, which were
sent to General Sweeney.

Eight vessels belonging to the port of Poole, in

TELEGRAPHIC INTELLIGENCE.

THE MILITARY REVOLT IN SPAIN.

ALLEGED DISPERSION OF TEE INSUR-
GENTS.
MADRID, JAL 11, Eviranwc.

An official despatch announces that the division
of General Zabela, marching from Malagon, and
the column under the Governor of Ciudad Real,
advancing by the valley of the Guadiana, simul-
taneously with the force under General Echague,
moving through the valley of the Tagus, have cam.
palled the insurgents to leave the mountains of
Toledo. They are now proceeding vitt. Hurcajo
towards the Portuguese frontier.

MADRID, JAN. 11, 11 P.M.

Later official intelligence from the scene of
operations says :—" General Prim is retreating
precipitately towardw Portugal by Puente del
Arzobispo. The principal mountain passes are
held by the royal troops. The dispersion of the
insurgents is complete. Tranquillity prevails
throughout the country.
The government have demanded the authorisa-
tion of the Senate to arraign General Prim.
The disturbances which took place at Saragossa
on the 7th inst. were caused by certain measures
of the authorities. Those measures having been
recalled no further troubles have occurred.

SPAIN AND CHILI.
NEW YORK, J. 4.

Advices rexived here from Valparaiso to Dec. 2
state that on the 26th November the Chilian war
corvette Eamerilda captured the Spanish gunboat
Caodonga, with all on board, including some official
despatches, after half an hour's engagement, off
Port Papudo, while en route from Coquimbo to
Valparaiso. The Esmerilda sustained no damage,
and sailed with her prize as convoy.
In consequence of this capture the blockade of
the Chilian ports had been partly raised.
In Peru Dictator Prado had inaugurated an
extensive system of retrenchment in the government
expenditure, and it was understood that he would
assist Chili and refuse to ratify ex-President Pezet's
treaty with Spain.

STEAM LOCOMOTIVES ON ROADS.—The Emperor
Napoleon a few days since, was present at an experiment
made near the Palace of Compiegne with a steam locomotive
for ordinary roads by M. Lots, of Nantes :—" When this
intention became known, the inhabitants of the town and
country around flocked to the palace, so that at last
an immense crowd had collected. At about 1 o'clock
the locomotive appeared, and steadily took up
its place at the gate of the perk, near the avenues.
Two omnibuses of the Union des Postes were
then attached to it, together with a number of large chars-
a-banc. belongir gto the court. Shortly after, the Empe-
ror, with the Princess de Dletternich and a large number
of the guests, arrived to witness the experiment. His Ma-
jesty entered one of the omnibuses, and several of the
guests did the same. The locomotive then took the way
by the avenues, and went in the direction of Pierrefonda.
It reached the Ilona-Royal, and afterwards the placewhere
the roads meet in the forest. But it must be declared the
trial did not answer expectation. The machine cer-
tainly went np the rising ground to the Carrefour de
la Fern, but the changes made in the rate of speed led
to stoppages which proved that the machine has not yet
reached that perfection which its inventor, who is an
intelligent man, will very probably one day arrive at.
Everyone was witness of the extreme kindness of the
Emperor in taking part in the proceedings. At the
Carrefour his Majesty and the guests left the omnibuses,
entered carriages, and made an excursion to Pierrefonds.
I The looomotive also took the road to that place, went five
I or six kilometres, and returned by the Faubourg Saint-
Inseam.

THE GALES.-LOSS OF LIFE.

The severe gales of this week have produced
disastrous effects all round the coast, and the destruction
of property on the land also has been immense. For several
hours during last night and early this morning the wind
blew from the S.W., accompanied at intervals with heavy
falls of rain, with terrific force. Reports received this
morning mention that large numbers of vessels
which had sought the protection of the har-
bours yesterday were still lying snugly at an-
chor, a few only having ventured out to sea. The
shipping in the Pool last night and this morning was
under strict watch. Additional precautions had been
adopted in mooring. Several collisions, however, occurred.
One large steamer had a paddle-box knocked completely off,
and two others were much injured. A great quantity of Laid
in Esse: is in consequence of thelong-continued rains, now
under water, and on the Surrey and Middlesex sides of
the Thames above Chelsea large tracts are swamped. Many
houses about Battersea, Wandsworth, and Hammersmith,
have been rendered uninhabitable. Owing to the force
and quantity of rain which has fallen since Monday on
nearly all the lines of railway round London, the sleepers
are for miles in many places laid bare, the ballast having
been washed away.
In the City and the suburbs damage is reported to pro-
perty, but no serious accident. At Streatham the roof of
a house has been blown off, one person only being injured,
and at Norwood a wheat stack has been blown against a
stable, and a horse killed.
A boat belonging to a schooner from Shields was
swamped early this morning in the river, and two men
drowned.

THE NEWS FROM GERMANT.

What Prussian valour has won in the field Prussian
policy, the Tones thinks, is rapidly losing in the cabinet.
Apart from the defective state of his health, agencies are
at work in the council striving to undermine the ascendancy
of Bismarck, and a breach between the strong-minded
minister and his royal master may be no very remote con-
tingency. The ex-King of Hanover cannot yet divest him-
self of the idea that he is Hanover, and certain of the
nobility and officers side with him. But notwithstanding
these interests the cause of German unity would advance
with rapid strides in the north, were it not for the blind-
ness of the King's government at Berlin and the irrecon-
cilable animosity of political parties in the Prussian
chambers. It is greatly to be regretted that
the government during the compulsory inacticn
of Bismarck should have departed from the programme
announced by his mouthpiece to the chambers immediately
after the war. The Great Frederick's successor is a King
to the Prussians, who have long been broken in and
strongly disciplined, but it is otherwise with the subjects
of the states to be incorporated with Prussia in the
North German Confederacy, and the obstinacy of the King
and his advisers in their retrograde measures has given
new confidence to the separatists. Already a change is
perceptible in the attitude of the Grand Duke of Hesse-
Darmstadt and in the pretensions of the Duke of Nassau.
The Southern Suttee, which are at daggers drawn on all
other subjects, unite, however, in their cordial detesta-
tion of Prussia. Were this latter at any time to have

AMERICAN POLMCA.

The agitation in American polities only surprises those,
rem►tks the Daily New, who have forgotten the difficul-
ties through which the republic has already passed, or have
omitted to observe the later course of its affairs. Not-
withstanding the praise we still hear of Mr. Johnson's
statesmanship, it has become increasingly evident of late
that, so far from steering the vessel of state into the
smoother waters that lay straight before him, he has gra-
dually reversed the helm, and has been steering for the
breakers. That those who on this side the water most
loudly sympathised with the Confederacy as loudly praise
Mr. Johnson and applaud his policy ; that he has rallied
to him all the old pro-Southern element in the North and
the seoesaion element in the South ; and that the loyalists
of the South and those in the North who made sacrifices for
the Union are nearly all against him, are facts which are sig.
nificant of his present position, and strongly condemnatory
of it. The issue now before the country is not between the
original radical policy and Mr. Johnson's. The Congress
agreed upon a happy medium. The conditions upon
which Congress decreed that the southern representatives
should be admitted consisted of the ratification of an
amendment to the constitution, guaranteeing the civil
rights of the negroes, the public debt and the past lees-
Winn of the North, and redressing the inequality of rr

tiOUTENfARIC.

Mr. Trotnian, who extensive premises at 30, Green-
street, Friar-street, adjacent to the railway, where he car-
ries on the bone boiling and crushing Widnes., was sum-
moned by the vestry of St. George-the-Martyr, Southwark,
for " that he did not keep a certain factory, workshop, or
workplace occupied by him, in Green-street aforesaid, in •
cleanly state, nor ventilated in such a manner as to render
harmless, so far as practicable, the gases, vapours, and
other impurities generated in the course of the work car-
ried on therein, that are a nuisance and injurious and den-
, gerous to health."
Mr. Hirt, the vestry clerk, appeared to support the sum-
mons; end Mr. Metcalfe for the defendsnt.
Mr. Metcalfe objected to the summons altogether, and
contended that his worship had no jurisdiction in the
matter under the clause of the act of parliament. Mr.
Trotman's was not • factory or workshop within the mean-
ing of the act. He only carried on bone boiling and bone
crushing.
Mr. Hirt contended that these nuisances might be adju-
dicated under the act of parliament under which he was
prosecuted. The business carried on by Mr. Trotman was
injurious to the health of the neighboufood.
Mr. Burcham told him that the act applied to work-
shops, factories, fro., being in • neglected and filthy gate
so as to be injurious to the health of the persons em-
ployed in such places. He was of opinion that the wit-
ness oould not proceed further in the case, therefore the
summons must be dismissed. In acting thus, he wished it
to be known that he had every desire to do away with such
intolerable nuisances, as they were abominable and filthy
in the extreme. .

Mr. Metcalfe assured his worship that Mr. Trotman was
using every means to prevent any nuisance, aad in the
course of a few days there would be no offensive smell
emanating from his premises.
Mr. Bambara was glad to hear that, and he hoped the
gnt•cleaners and others would follow his example. The
smell bad been so offensive that morning, that he could
hardly remain in the court.
