LAW INTELLIGENCE—This Day.

COURT OF DIVORCE.

Before the Right Hon. Sir J. P. Wilde and a

Common Jury.)
CHAPMAN V. CHAPMAN.

This was a suit instituted by the wife to obtain
a judicial separation, on the ground of various acts
of cruelty. • _ _

Dr. Spinks, Q.C., and Mr. Searle appeared for
he plaintiff, and Dr. Swabey and Mr. Pritchard
'or the defendant.

Mrs. Chapman, the petitioner, said that she was
married to the respondent some years ago, and that
he was a stoneyard-keeper in Brighton. He
during her pregnancy in 1859 tried to per-
suade her to take medicine to procure a miscarriage,
and as she would not, he rolled her on the floor, and
she told him she knew what he did it for, and what
was likely to be the consequence. On one occasion
he drove her out of her bedroom into another,
where there was no bed, and telling her she was
always thinking about a doctor, and that no decent
woman would have one at all. She was in her
night-dress, and it was bitterly coil. He then
called her back again. On the last confine-
ment he insisted upon the doctor being dis-
missed two days after. The doctor said that
this was improper behaviour, and added that if
anything occurred he would be responsible. In
1862 she had a bad knee, and told her husband that
she ought to have a doctor, but remarked that she
was too fond of the - doctors. The doctor
attended her a fortnight or three weeks. Her hus-
band's behaviour was very bad to her during that
time. He used to employ very strong language
against doctors. In 1866 she told him that she
required the doctor again. He said that she should
not have a doctor, nor should she show her knee
to him. She went to one, and her sister, Mrs.
Hart, went with her. Sae did not tell him about
the knee. Her sister told him, and he said
he should like to- see it, and she showed it to him.
She told her husband, and he said that he would kill
her, and dash her brains out. He would not let
her go to bed, and swore at about two in the morn-
ing that he would never sleep with her again, as
she had shown the doctor her knee. His conduct
after became so violent that she went to Mr.Stuckey,
a solicitor, and then returned to her sister, Mrs.
Hart, and did not go back to her husband again.
The respondent had often said that he would kill
the children. He was then in a violent passion.
The.case was proceeding when we went to press.

bPORTIiVG OPIIVIONS.

THE NOTTINGHAM HANDICAP.
Sporting Life.

The list of sport is a full one, however, compris-
ing as it does Nottingham, Tuesday and Wednes-
day ; Derby, Thursday and Friday ; and Windsor
Steeplechases on the two latter days. Mr. Brad-
field, although no longer the handicapper at Not-
tingham, is still indefatigable as a Clerk of the
Course, and his labours will doubtless be rewarded
by a prosperous meeting on the two days, the chief
feature of the progratntue being of course the Not-
tinghamshire Handicap. Of the forty-six original
subscribers, seven have paid forfeit, leaving thirty-
nine standing in, and on looking over the weights,
the representatives of Matthew and Joseph Daw-
son's stables appear the most formidable, as there is
such a very moderate lot of horses entered, and
whichever they go for will most likely finish first
and second, their most dangerous oi-ponmts being
Edinburgh and Three per Cent.

Sportsman.

For the Nottingham 11 tudicap Indigestion will
have to carry a penalty of 10Ib, which raises his
weight to 9st lib, and therefore he ought to be
beaten by Artesian, Bst Gib. The latter meets
Indigestion on 111 b better terms than when they
ran at Lincoln, and this ought to insure Artesian
now having the best of it. At present I have the
greatest fancy for Master Willie and Artesian.

(Bell's Life.)

The Nottingham Handicap, one mile and a quar-
ter, is of primary importance, and ought to create
plenty of interest, the 101 b penalty incurred by In-
digestion effectually steadying him, for he meets
Leases, Artesian, Midwife, Feodor, Vigorous, Grey
Stocking, Cauthleen, Belzoni, Ligurian, and Redi
vivus on from 81b to 171 b worse terms than he did
at Lincoln. If Cauthleen be worth only a
very small percentage of the money she must
have been backed for to become such a favourite
last Tuesdaj, she ought to carry this off ; neverthe-
less, we cannot believe in her, and would far s)oner
plump for one of Joseph or Matthew Dawson's,
or Lord Westmorland's, could it be determined
what their best may be. J. Dawson has four to
choose between—Knight Errant Artesian, Numa
Pompilius, and Othello—and any one of the quartett
will be good enough to follow. It would take the
best of his brother's bunch to beat even the top
weight, Knight Errant, who does not concede too
much to Silenus, Speculum (penalised 51h), Con-
' tempt, or Innerdale ; Whilst Othello and Numa
Pompilius give thelight-weighted three year old but
71b. Lord Westmorland will be fortunate to find
one better than Master IVillie, and should he carry
the green and white there will be little beyond J.
I)awson's for him to fear, only one of the latter
trainer's light weights, Numa Pompilius or Othello,
being likely to trouble him.
