SETTLED.-In the Court of Chancery of
New Jersey, in session at Trenton, few
days ago, Chancellor Zabriskie rendered q
decision in the case Of Virginia McClurg
vs.. Benjamin F. Terry ct al, one of the
mcst remarkable cases that has ever come
before the court. Miss McClurg brought
suit to have . marriage, which had been
performed by Justice of the Peace, set
aside by the court. The allegation was
that the two parties to the suit met at So
cial gathering, and, for the amusement of
the company, were married by Justice of
the Peace who happened to be present.
Aftervard the defendant and his family n
sisted upon the legality of the marriage.
and the Justice, upon being questioned,
did not know whether the parties whom
he had joined in wedlock were in earnest
or not The case having come into Chan
cezy, Chancellor Zabriskie decided that .
marriage, to be vsid, must be agreed
upon by both parties, and he ther efore de
clared the marriage null snd void
