A divorce case OF more than ordinary interest
and which has attracted the sympathy OF a large
circle in this city, has but recently been decided in
Indiana
Mrs. Martha Lafitte johnson was astcnished
some months ago by receiving notification that
her hveband, Mr.. William r. A. Johnson had OBJ
tanned divorce from her on the false allegation of
her desertioD. She had received notice of such
proceedings therefore had no opportunity to vndi-
cate her rights. Her counsel MIR. George Northrop,
however, Immediately proceeded to Indiana, and
there obtained proofs that false witnesses had been
procured to accomplish the outrage. He spared
no trouble in establishing before the courts such
proofs of the infamy of the prosecution that against
all precedents in such cases In Indiana, new trial
was granted to Mrs. johnson, and a decree made
in her favor, with alimony and the exclusve.control
OF her child Thus justice has been accorded to an
injured lady who had the courage TO claim her
rights even from an Indiana tribunal
II IL is painful to record but too frequently the
shameful proceedings OF lawyers so styled who dis
grace their profession bv tamperng with law and
Justice, it is gratifying also to notice the noble and
will add successful eXertons of one OF our pro-
mnent members OF the Philadelphia bar who in
presence of 80 many obstacles, did not hesitate to
seek for and obtain justice, in defiance OF malgnty
and falsehood. Mr.. George Northrop has proven by
his success in the present instance that unjust
divorces obtained under false pretenses even in the
State OF Indiana, can be set aside when an upright
LAWYER fears not to labor for the cause OF Justice

THE DEATH OF A SOLDIER.
The Commander of the Wanderer-The Com
paniop of Lopez and Walker.

The C0mman0ef Oh tnc Wduuerer-Vno COm-
panfoD of Lopez and Walker.
General ]. Egbert Farnum, one OF the most erratic
and reckless spirits OF the PERIOD died yesterday at
his residence in New York. General Farnum was
born in New Jersey, April l, 1924 and received his
education in Pottsville, Pa During the Mexican
war he was sergeant-major OF the lst Pennsylvania
Volunteers, Colonel Wynkoop, serving with marked
distinction until the close OF hostilities. He was
with Walker in his Nicaraguan expedition, serving
with the flibuster up 10 the date OF his capIure.
General Farnums love OF adventure led him
with the widest and bravest to take service the
Quitman, Lopez and other 1libustering expeditions
fitted out from this country, and In all OF them he
bore a conspicuous part. He was also commander
OF the slave yacht Wanderer, OF Savannah, and was
captured in his first attempt at landing cargo OF
slaves in Georgia.
AT the outbreak OF the Rebellion he entered the
army as Major OF the 1st Excelsior Regiment OF New
York He soon rose to the rank OF lieutenant
colonel and afterwards to that OF colonel and was
breveted brigadier-general for gallant aad meri-
torious services. General Farnum participated In
nearly all OF the battles in which the Army OF the
Potomac was engaged, and was severely wounded
through both legs at Williamsburg, on the TLh OF
May, 1862 Subsequently he returned to his regl-
ment, but his wounds forced him to retire from ac-
tive service and accept coonelcy in the 1lth Vete-
ran Reserve Corps.

Destructive Fire in North Carolina

NORFOLK Va, May 17.--The entire business
part of the town of Henderson, North Carolina,
was destroyed by fire this morning. The fire
was first discovered issuing from store on Maia
street, belonging to DR.. Debrian. 1t spread very
rapidly, and soon burned every building on both
sides of the street for distance of two hundred
yards. Every business house in the town was
destroyed. The fire is believed to have been
the work of an incendiary. The loss is roughly
estimated at $4,000, only small portion OF

Tuesday. May II. 1870.
The usual bank statement Yesterday gives
further proof of an extremely dull and easy
money market. There is slight falling OFF in
specie and loans, of the latter to the amount of
$17S 795, which is due to the apathy existing in
trade circles. On the other hand, the deposits
have increased $637, ,544, and the legal-tenders
$393 520 The dulness which has marked the
course of the loan market during the week is
faithfully reflected in the very heavy reduction
i'll the cearings, amounting to $8, ,339, 799
There Is some demand for call loans but it is
quite moderate, and rates continue as last
quoted.
Gold opened at 114J5, advanced to 115 and
closed about noon at 1l4IE, the opening figure
There was strong upward movement but very
little speculation.
Government bonds were stronger, advancing
about I@H in sympathy with gold.
There was considerable business at the Stock
Board, and prices generally advanced. Sales of
State Is, second series, at 10794, and City 6s
new bonds, at 1929. Lehigh gold loan was
active and steady, with sales at 939z.
Reading Railroad was in good demand, with
sales at 521a, but closing at 5244. PENNSYLVANIA
was sought after, with sales at 56A. Camden
and Amboy changed hands at 100, MnehilI at
9S4@521s, and Iehigh Valley at 81. S6H was
offered for Catawissa preferred, and 29si for
Philadelphia and Erie.
In Canal shares we notice sales of Schuylkill
