Interesting divorce Case.
a HUSBAND SUES FOR DIVORCE ON tn,
GROUND OF AIALFoROIATIoS.

a HUSBAND SUES FOR DIVORCE on THE
GROUND OF MALFoRNIATIoN.
brom he Louisville (Ry.) Democrat, June 80.
There was rather singular divorce
case before the Chancery Court yester-
day, man suing for divorce on the
ground of malformation. The follow
ing is the decision of Chancellor Pirtle.
which fully gives the particulars of the
case. The suit was brought by j. p.
Bray against his wife:
BY the statute OF Kentucky q Re-
vlsed Statutes, page III "the courts hav-
ing chancery jurisdiction may decree a
divorce to both husband and wife. for
sucn itnpotency or malitormation as
prevents sexual intercourse" The
plaintiff alleges that the defendant is
SO malformed rs to prevent such inter-
course. The defendant SAYS in her an
swer that it is true, but that she became
so after the bearing of child of their
marriage by accident in the birth of
SAID child; and the proof fully sustains
the answer. She seems not TO object to
the divorce, but asks that she NAV have
the child, to which She is much attach
ed and also an allowance for the sup
port of herself and child.
If she consents to the divorce this
court could not grant it unless the cause
shown of record came within the
statute; and IL seems to me that it does
not. The malformation mentioned in
the statute, when we consider what a
marriage is among Christian people.
must have been congenital, or at least
before marriage was solemnized. Sup
pose the husband should be rendered
impotent or malformed by a wound in
battle, would the statute apply? Surely
not, any more than if his health were
permanently destroyed by some of the
many ills that flesh is heir to. Now the
proof shows, in this case, that the wife
suffered this dreadful misfortune in
bearing the husbands child, and it
came about through the neglect of the
nurse. The husband may have been
some to blame about this neglect; the
midwife or the doctor, perhaps, should
have been sent for. But be this as IL
may have been, the case is not deemed
to be within the statute. The wife is
entitled to her child, for her comfort.
ana the case is referred to the commits
sioners TO report whnt will be proper
allowance for the wife for the support
of herself and child. His petition is
dismissed, We would have better
thought he would have worshipped a
lifetime the woman who suffered so
much for him, rather than that he
would ask this court to help his arm to
throw her, like a lOathsome weed,
away.
To which the plaintiffs counsel ex-
cePted, and was granted an appeal to
the Court of Appeals.

THE English advices have very little
to say about the forthcoming attempt
to lay another telegraphic cable across
the Atlantic, the ministerial crisis, and
the continental war being for the nonce
subjects of more engrossing interest.
But it was considered certain that the
Great Eastern would be ready to start
from Sheerness last week, Saturday,
and stopped for coal at Beerhaven,
would reach valentia the second week
in July, and Immediately start to lay
the new cable to New Foundland; and
if successful we shall be in telegraphic
communication with Europe this
month. If the new cable is laid with
out accident and works we'll, the Great
Eastern Will steam back to mid-ocean
and make the attempt to recover the
end of the 1900 miles of cable laid last
year, and in that event, and if it is still
in working order, will connect it with
the llO0 miles on board for that purpose,
and retrace her course to Trinity Bay,
thus laying two cables before returning
TO England. It will be good thing to
have telegraphic communication with
Europe while the war and other impor-
tant events are transpiring there, and
we earnestly hope that the energy and
perseverance of the projectors of this
great enterprise that shall bind two
continents together, may this time, after
SO many disappointments, be crowned
with complete success.
