a ActIon to Recover sI5, 900 for A Alternating
Ihe Affections of n vie.

novel and unusual civil action is now being
tried in the Superior Court at Columbus. The
action is a suit brought by Lucius A. BOwer5
against lra A. Preston, his wife Margaret Pres
ton, and Aaron D.. Griffin, all residents of Perry
township, Fraukin Co, to recover fifteen thou
sand dollars damages sustained by the plaintiff
Bowers, by the alienation of the affections of
his wife, Mary Z. Bowers, formerly Mary z.
Kent, and the eventual separation of the pair
produced by the unlawful confederation and
contrivance of the said defendants
The parties i this case are all highly respec-
table, and of good character. The plaintiff, Mr.
Bowers, is very intelligent man, about thirty

From the mass of testimony in the case, we
gather these points: Mr.. and Mrs. Bowers were
married in Bardstown, Illinois, in 1853; she, as
1t would seem, entertaining neutral affection
for him, was induced to marry him by the per
suasion OF her friends and at his own earnest en-
treaties. They were married but short time
when, as ii is alleged. the defendants persuaded
herto leave him, (the defendants, tits said though
this has not yet appeared in the evidence were in

finally succeeded in separating Mr.. Bowers and
his wife, and they both came to Franklin conn

renew his efforts to regain her. The principal
reason and Justification of the defendants for
their part appears to be that, though they were
married, Mr.. and Mrs. Bowers were not man
and wife, in a spiritual sense, and were conSe:
quenuy miserable, though no striking evidence
of the existence OF or reason fjr this unhuppi
ness has yet appeared in the evidence. a great
deal Of negotiation and "paavering" took place
between the rival houses before this suit, and

JomN HEENAN, the 'Benicia Boy" now the
fstic champion of America, sent out by re-
cent steamer a challenge to Tom Snyers, the
champion of England, to fight him. The gal
liant Tom replies by the Europa, that if his three
coming fights with Bill Benjamin "the I'M
known" and Bob Brcttle are decided in his ia
vor thus leaving him still the champion he ''wiil
be most happy to fight Heenan for goo, and
bet him eOio or 6, 900 that he wins the fight"
The winner of the battle would also be entitled
to the Champions Belt. As the affair between
Sayers and Benjamin has now been decided in
favor of Sayers, there but two other gentle
men TO be attended to before Mr.. Heenau's claim
to the personal attentions of the English cham
pion will be taken into active consideration.
