under the statute, was technical offence. in
dependen. of intent. but that adultery could
not be committed without the consent of the
wiIl-,hat if woman were deceived by one
representing her husband. there could be no
crime; and if she married again, honestly be-
lieying herself widow, the act of living with
the second husband was as virtuous as living
with the first. until she ascertained that the
first husband was alive. The Judge. upon
advice of all the Judges. sustained the last
view. provided the testimony should show that
the second marriage was entered into with an
hoest intent. This was fully established by
the most satisfactory testimoy, and decree of
divorce was granted with aimony.

There seems TO have been an opinion preva-

to sell liquors by the large quantity. There
are large dealers in this county. who would
scorn TO rob the country Of the paliry sum Of

have never yet had license TO sell, because they
were ignorant that the law required it. For
the information Of any such, we publish the
following from P. l24 Of the laws Wisconsin.
s -. The county commissioners ofthe sew

person being resident Of their proper county,
