THE McARDLE CASE.

According to a report which We
find in the Philadelphia Inquirer, the
Supreme Court OF the United States de-
cided thst it had no jurisdiction 10 this
case, for the following reasons:
Pending this appeal, and after the
cause had been heard and submitted to
this court, Congress, by the act of March,
1868, repealed so much of the act of
1867 as authorized an appeal from the
judgment of the Circuit Court to the Su-
preme Court Of the United States, or the
exercise of any jurisdiction by the court
on appeals which have been or may
hereafter be taken. No decision was
thereafter rendered by the court in the
case, and the court, at the present term,
directed argument to be made on the
question of its jurisdiction, subsequent
10 such repeal This
Court never had appellate jurisdiction in
such cases until it was authorized by
the act of 1867. The act has been re-
pealed and when an act of Congress is
repealed it must be considerable same
as if it had never been passed. This
proposition is claimed to be 80 clear that
no argument can be required to sustain
it. No court can do anything in the case
without jurisdiction of the subject mats
ter; and any act attempted to be done
under such circumstances is simply vol !.
1t can make no difference at what period
in the progress Of a cause the jurisdic-
tien cease, after it has closed no judicial
act can be performed"

The Wrongs of the DtvO &c Lava
fragrant Outrage.
On last Tuesday Mrs. Albert French,
of Lagrange, left the room of her sick
husband to 90 on an errand to the house
Of a neighbor, across the street. While
there, some one asked her ii she had
heard of a rumor that she was divorced
from her husband. She replied no, and,
in laughing way, was making some re-
mark about tie absurd stories people tell,
when person entering, handed her a
note from an attorney, informing her
that the rumor was tue her husband
had made an application IN the Cltcult
Court Of Elkhart county, where the
parties had never lived at all the sheriff
had served the process so informally that
she never received it; the application
had been granted Oh the l9ih of March;
her husband had brought the decree
home with him and lived with her
more than week before she found it
out, during which time she had been at
tentively nursing him through fit OF
sickness. Mrs French was almost killed
by the totally unexpected intelligence.
She had been married to her husband
twenty,one years; they had two chill
dren nearly grown, and so far as it is
known the family had always lived in
peace and unity The husband is worth
$1,000 but the wife did not receive one
cent of alimony, althou Oh a portion OF
the property was inherited by her. 1t is
one of the most infamous cases we have
ever heard Of, and as the decree was
granted in county where the parties
never resided, considerable amount oil
perjury must have been committed The
matter should'have legal investigation,
for it certainly caps the climax on any
thing we have ever known in the way Of
Indiana divorces.-IndianapoHs SenH-

terrible Calamtty-Lives Lost by Fire
fin the Mines of Gold HrI'.

fin the Mines of Gold HfT.
SAN Francisco, April S.-A fire
broke out this morning in elbow Jack ei
mines, Gold Hill, Nevada. It soon
communicated to the Kentuck and
Crown Point mines. Thus far, l O'Clock,
P. NJ, eleven bodies have been taken out
of the shafts of the three mines. Other
bodies are seen at the bottom Of Kentuck
shaft, but it is impossible to remove them
on account of the heat 1t is uncertain
how many persons are in the mines as
the excitement and confusion is so great
that survivors are unable to call the roll
of those at work. Sixty men were work
ing two levels at Crown Point. 1t is
unknown how many escaped. The dis.
tress is fearful. Wives and children of
the miners congregated at the entrance
of the mines calling for missing husbands
and fathers.
At P, NJ, the latest reports from Gold
Hill say that the number known TO be
dead is thirty six; five in Yellow Jacket;
eight in Kentuck and twenty-three at
Crown Point. The fire originated in
kentuck and is reported now spreading
towards the Jacket shaft. The iremen
succeeded in getting the hose down the
Jacket shaft level with the fire. Hopes
are entertained that the flames will soon
be snbdued. Ii not, when all exFecta-
tons of saving more lives is abandoned, |
the mouth of the shaft will be closed, |
ventilation stopped, and the fire thereby |
will be smothered. Yellow Jacket,
Crown Point and Kentuck are connected
with other mines under the grounl.
There is no probability ofthe fire extend
ing beyond them. Virginia is almost
deserted, the people going to render as
to the scene of disaster.
The San Francisco Stock and Ex-
change Board subscribed thousand dol
ars. and sent the money by telegraph to
iold Hill for the relief of families suffer-
ng by the conhagratiOn. The catas-
rophe is the most terrible that ever oc>
urred in the mining district Of this coast.
