A FAMILY MIxTURE.-A very perplexing
and complicated case or set of cases yester-
day came up for examination before Recor-
der Gastinel at twelve o'clock; and one
caleulted TO puzzle older heads than that Of
Recorder Gastinel. 1t was family quar-
rel between two very respectable families,
viz: Mr.. Cramer VS.. Mr.. Mousson and
Madam Cramer VS.. her husband, William
Cramer. About or before the fourteenth
instant, It appears Mr.. and Mrs. Cramer
had been living on bad terms, and Cramer
had, as alledged by Mrs. Cramer, broken
the peace toward her for which she had him
arrested and put under peace bonds in the
sum of $500, which bend was given on the
fourteenth instant before Recorder Gastinel
Leaving the court room Cramer immedi-
ately walked to the residence Of his wife,
on Royal street, near st. Louis, according
to witnesses, INDUCED in all sorts of I'M
gepAemanly gesticulations toward his
wife, his mother-in-law, Mrs. Mousson, and
a young lady, boarder with the family.
His conduct so incensed the brother of his
wife, that he Immediately ran down stairs
and gave chase to Cramer, the latter taking
refuge in store, closely pursued by young
Mousson, who it was alleged threatened to
kill Cramer. For this Cramer had him ar
rested, charged with assault and battery
with intent to kill. Hearing of this, Mrs.
Cramer entered a cross-charge against her
husband of insult and abuse, and he was
also arrested. This was indeed mixture
Cramer was the first witness examined
and so on until the testimony of the whole
party, excepting that of the wife, was taken
her testimony being ruled by the court as
incompetent. After hearing all the evil
dence, which was spicy in the extreme,
and revealed series of family disturb
ances well worth hearing, Judge Gastinel
decided the best mode of settling the IN
pleasant affair was to put them under peace
bonds. Accordingly Cramer was bound
in the sum of $1,000 to keep the peace to-
ward his wife, and Mousson in the sum of
$500 to keep the peace toward Cramer.
