Divorce and Ese.rsarrfa-e,

1t has been said facts are often stranger than
tlctlon,' and every days experience proves the
truth OF the apEorism. BY a reference TO our law
reports, it will be seen that very singular case
of divorce was decided yesterday at the special
term of the Common Pleas. The facts are brief
ly these:
wealthy gentleman residing in this city be-
comes enamored OF poor but virtuous girl
They are married, ald in due time arc blessed
with a smiling cherub-a pledge OF their mutual
affection. But the course of true love never did
run SMOOTH as frequently after the cousumation
OF the marriage relations as before they are enter
ed upon. Business calls the gentleman to Europe,
and the same cause delays his return for a long
time. Meanwhile SANDER with her hundred ewes
and ears is busy at work. The absent husband
is charged with infideiity. The lady becomes in
dIgnant- applies to the Courts, and sues out di-
vorce with five thousand dollars as alimony
which is Immediately paid over by the friends OF
the absent husband. The lady, having yesterday
become of age, t2l yearsl comes before the
Court, asking that the above mentioned sum be
paid to herself which was OF course granted
But in the midst OF all this legal warfare the hus-
band returns, seeks an interview with his former
wife. explains away all that had been said to his
disadvantage ge, and second time the happy couple
sought the steps of the alter, and a second time
the knot tied. and we presume firmly enough
this time to last for the rest OF their lives.
