that lhi. resolution or something like il,
ought 10 pass.

UNLAWFul MARRIiGE


The town has been full Of rumors for
day OF two past, respecting the solem-
nlzation Of a marriage between parties
disabled BY The laws Of God aud man
from entering into the stale. We pro-
cure our information from the best sour
ces, and consequently it can be relied
upon as correct.
On Monday morning last, about eleven
O'Clock, four persons two males AMI two
females, called at the office Of Alderman
Campbell, northwest corner of Eighth
and Fitzwater streets, and desired that
two Of them should be married. Those
who stepped forward for the purpose,
were Mr.. James Eneu, said to be aged
eighty-four years, and Miss Emma Hanes,
said to be aged about twenty. Alder.
man Campbell made all the legal lnqu-
ries particularly, and the more SO, be-
cause Of the disparity in the ages Of tn,
parties. Besides the two who were pre-
sent a gentleman whom Alderman Camp
bell knew to be next door neighbor Of
Mr., Eneu, and lady who represented
herself as the sister Of the bride. To all
his interrogatories, they with one accord
replied that there was no just impedi-
meHt. Thus assured, the Alderman
could not but proceed, and the ceremony
was performed, and the parties left the
Office. About nightfall, person called
on Alderman Campbell, and informed
him that he had married grand father
too granddaughter; and on inquiry, it
was proved to be the fact. He felt per-
fectly free from blame, because he had
done all that the law required at his
hands, and, placed every dependence
upon the respectability of those concern,
ed. The marriage we ale assured, has
never been consummated. The mother
of the bride, and herself, live in the
house of Mr.. Eneu. On Tuesday, Mr..
e. called on the Alderman, and wished
him to cancel the certificate, which was
out OF his power, but he inquired of him
why he bad not informed him of the dis
ability. Mr.. Eneu replied that he was
not aware at the time, of what he now
knew, that both the laws of the land and
Ofthe church TO which he was attached,
forbade contract Of marriage between
all so allied. 1t is null and void to all
intens and purposes. 'r
The above are the facts Of the case as
they really are, though there are many
things stated by the tongue Of ramor
which have no foundation.-Phl Led.
Since the above was in type we have
seen an explanatory letter from the
grandpapa to an Editor in Philadelphia.
He says that he had been badly treated
ly some Of his relations, and resolved
to marry his granddaughter 10 spite
them. The proposition was made to En-
ma and accepted. They were according
ly married as above related On the eve-
ming after the marriage clergyman call
ed upon the old gentleman and convinced
him that the marriage was contrary to the
laws Of God and man. The old man then
went to the Alderman 10 be unmarried; /;
but he was told that this could be done
only by the Legislature or Court. He
then went 10 an attorney and had meas
ures taken for divorce bya Court
