view Of the large quantity of business on the Car

sjble dispatch to MAKE some regulation SIS TO the
length OF time 70 be taken up IN argument, aud
have concluded to adopt the rule OF the supreme
Court of the United States which It has recently

have several children The present sait Is brought
against the tenant of house IN Eleyenthst

child of Mr.. Il by former marriages are made CO.
defendants, to recover damages. Tho right to
dover is contested on the ground that Mrs II
was never legally married to Mr. X. by reason OF
Mr. Il. not being at liberty, by law, to marry, as
his former wife was then living The Court ron
siders that the case must rest entirely upon tho
marriage act, which is part oil that OF the same
chapter as that of divorce, and must be considered
as one act, and was not repealed IN 1880. Thae
act says no person shall marry having husband
or wife living &c. This wife of Mr.. h. was living.
and it was not lawful for him to marry again.
The Court deeply regrets having to come to this
conclusion, but it is compelled to do So The
marriage not being valid, Mrs Il. is not entitled
to dover. Judgment for defendants
