There is a very remarkable case ge'iDg on here IN
the Supreme Court, (where was for few minutes
to-day which involves the whole awoi marriage
in this country appears that IN 1875 young and
beautiful Catholic French GIRL Ia refugee from the
massacre of ST Domngo) came to Savannah, Geo,
with few slaves and the wreck OF her father pro-
perty. She commenced the cigar manufacturing
business. Ia 1876 she was married (before an Anne,
rican aglstrate) at Savannah, TO Jew named
together man and wife for Is years IN Savannah,
where they made fortune. She had children,
girls and boys, by him. most of whom are now living,
and moving in the first circles in LOUISIANA, Geor-
gia, South Carlina, &c. and married. These chill
dren were all ciIcumcsed, II seems, according to
children of Mr.. and Mrs. Jewell About 1910 IL
they quarreled, separated, divided some Of the
property, and some of the children. She went TO
New Orleans, with her share OF children and chat
ies, and died there. He went to Charleston with
his. About 1870, he then being about sixty years
tItul young Jewess, who had five or SIX boys and
girls by him, all of whom, IT is said, were also cir
cumcised, according 20 the Jewish rites, by Rab-
bl, &c., as the children of Mr.. and Mrs Jewell. He
died short time since, leaving large fortune; and
then, OF the two sets of children by the two wives,
each set claimed to be exclusively legitimate, and
sole heirs at law, and branded the others egl,l
mate, &c. The case is very queer one, and in-
wolves the legitimacy OF many members of highly
respectable families in the South. Mr. Hunt, Of
Charleston, Is for the first marriage, and the u s.
Attorney General for the last. / will look to it.
