son of Horace and Mary P. Ames, Of Holden died

Kick Of young colt, with which be was playing in

days after the occurrence, the boy seemed to be in
the enjoyment Of bis usual health and on the third
day he arose as usual but, shortly after breakfast, he
began rapidly to fail, and in an hour or two he was

MATRIMONIAL TROUBLE OF CLERGYMEN.-
The Supreme Court in session at Greenfield, in
this State was last week engaged in hearing two
cases in which the wives of clergymen, have sued
for divorce from their husbands. In the first case
that of Rev. Mr. King, of Heath, the parties
were married in 1914 Mr. King. eight months
after marriage brought charges before the church
or council against his wife, TO the effect that she
charged him with preaching in bad grammar, and
had advised him TO give up preaching until he
knew more. The council decided that he had no
just grounds of complaint; whereupon the faith
less husband declared that he would and did will
fully and utterly desert his wife, and to this day
the charms of the fair lady have not awaited to
bring back the deserter. Wherefore the Court
decreed divorce, that the lady should resume
her maiden name, and that she should have 500
year as alimony in quarterly payments.
The other was the case of the wife of Rev John
Eastman, of Hawley. This case excites consid-
cradle interest, and large number OF clergymen
and ladies were present as witnesses and specla-
tors. The lady is Mr.. Eastman's second wife,
and they were married about years since. 1t is
charged that Mr. Eastman, the respondent, from
a short time after the marriage down to Dec. ed,
1852, treated his wife with GOODNESS and harsh
ness, and on several occasions with violence that
he subjected her to drudgery, and neglected her
in sickness, intercepted her letters and restrained
her liberty, and that last December he carried her
to the Brattleboro' Insane Hospital on pre-
tence Of insanity.
The lady who is said to be very well educated
and accomplished, sat by her counsel. Two of
her brothers, one of whom is clergyman, and
one OF more sisters were present as her witnesses
This case was not decided at the last adyces.

FREE DEMOCRATIC NOMINATION.

ROBBERY. Late on Friday evening, Sept 23d,
Information brought to The watch house that a
was lying upon the sidewalk on Spring street,
apparently in helpless condition. Deputy Marshal
Warren Immediately proceeded TO the place, and, with
the assistance Of one Of the waichmeu, brought him
to the police Office, where upon examination it was
fonnd that his left shoulder was dslocated. DR..
Nichols, the CITY Physician, aud Or. Bates we're
Immediately called and by them the limb was re-
STORED to its place.
The account which the man gave Of himself was,
that his name john Brough, that he had been at
work for several years past for John Smith orBarre;
that he ane the city on the day before for the
purpose Of drawing four hundred and fifty dollars
from the Savings Bank, with the intention Of pro-
ceediug to his native country England, upona visit
lie stated that he obtained the money! visited several
places about the city, where he drank beer once or
twice, and the last that heremembers was that he was
walking in company with man he dId not know,
and soon found himself lying upon the ground un-
able TO rise, and his money! which in gold, gone.
Upon inquiry of the cashier Of the bank, so much
of his story relates to his drawing the money was
confirmed, but his mind was in SO bewidered state
thai he could give no Information which would afford
any clue to the detection Of The rogue who relieved
HIM Of his cash. There can be little doubt, howev
er, that bold and audacious robbery has been COM
United, and 1t hehooves people who have money
about them to be little careful where they drink
beer, and in whose company they travel.
