Some Hints 60 Ladies' In the Mud

useful hints to ladies who have the courage TO venture
abroad into the muddy precincts OF Broadway during
rainy weather. He suggests several plans, accompanied
by choice illustrations, to the mode of escaping un.

Now TO remedy these melancholy grievances let every

The Brooklyn Breach OF Promise Case

''Brooklyn tems-Breach OF promise of marriage, ap
peared highly colored statement, which, passed over
unnoticed might work great injustice to my client the
defendan: therein named Allow me- therefore, to give
you the facts they occurredAn action for breach Of

Miss Blamacher, (who is, by the way, teacher in n

formed in German lager bier saloon in Forsyth street.
In this city. Under the advice Of eminent counsel de-
murrer to the complaint interposed In good faith
Plaintiffs attorney moved,for judgment, on the ground OF
the frvoousness OF the demurrer, whch motion was sum
arily granted and order directing assessment OF
damages by Sher's jury entered The defendant duly
appealed from the order 10 the General Term OF the Su
preme Court The plaintiffs attorney, however, mott with
standing the appeal, proceeded 10 assess the dam
ages by Shers jury subject to the objections Of de-
herself. and neither she the other witness
examined any witnesses introduced on behalf Of
the defendant for the purpose OF mitigating the damages,
which might have been easily done had the defendant .
counsel deemed proper The jury, under these circu-
stances, found the verdict yeu named Judgment was
accordingly entered and an appeal herefrom duly taken
The statement relative To the courtsbip the finding OF
the marriage agreement is wholly gra,utous, such
proof was adduced before the jury.
Having desire to enter into anewspaper controversy

generally to withhold your opinion until the trial OF the
cause in open court
