ScandaIin High Life.

The Mordaunt divorce case came up to-
day The Prince of Wales, some of whose
letters to Lady Mordaunt have been pub
lisheG, was called to the witness stand.
Lord Persance pointed out that no witness
was bound to answer any question which
would admit he had been guilty of adultery.
The Prince testified that he had been
acquainted with Lady Mordaunt previous
to her marriage, ana had made her a we'd
ding present Before the marriage she
visited the Princes at Marlborough, and
she had visited the theatre in company
with the Prince and Princess.
He saw her often in 1866 and 1867. He
had frequently met Sir Charles with Lady
Mordaunt. In June, 1861, he met Sir
Charles at a pigeon match, on which occa-
sion Lady MOrdaunt scored for both sides,
and he spoke to her in the course of the
match.
The Prince admitted that he occasionally
used hanson cabs. He solemnly asserted
that there never has been any improper or
criminal intention between himself and
Lady Mord2unt.
This declaration was received by
great crowd of spectators with cheers,
which the court endeavored to suppress,
but which were renewed The Bench ex
pressed much loyal indignation at the pub

Effects Of the sensatien Drama-A Man
Robbed and Thrown Across IA Railway Track
The Louisville Journal of Friday last SAYS
terrible affair occurred near O'Bannons s
Station last night. From a gentleman who
visited the place yesterday morning we learn the
Mr.. Ross, formerly a captain in the Con-
federate army, and now agent for the nursery
near Hobbs Station, In this county, got Oft At
the station ut OBannons from the $50 ?. M.
train Wednesday night. While in the depot
letter was handed him, which he stopped to
read by the station-house lamp. negro came
in during the time Mr.. Ross was engaged in
reading the letter, and picking up his (Mr.
Ross) carpet-bag, read the name thereon, aud
then laying it down went out of the room. Mr..
Ross thought nothing particularly of this at the
time, but after reading the letter he took up
his satcbel and started for home. When
some distance from the depot, and just
as he was entering the woods near
the track of the Short-hne, he heard some
one coming mp rapidly behind, who ordered
him to halt. AS he was turning to see the per-
son making such peremptory demand, he was
struck on the head with a fence rail, stunning
him for the instant. Two men, a negro aud
white man, then appeared from the surrounding
darkness, the one with the fence-rail with
which the first blow bad been struck, aud the
other with a large knife and pistol, aud COM
menced q furious assault upon Mr.. Ross The
negro struck him again with the fence-rail,
knocking him down, but he was enabled to get
on his feet again, when the white man attacked
him with the knife, cutting his overcoat aud
woupding him in several places about the shoul-
ders and body, He fell again, when the white
assalant put the pistol to his head, but, for
reason, did not shoot. The negro then beat him
again about the head with the rail until he
lost all consciousness. When he recovered pos
session of his senses-he supposes about an
hour from the time of the attack-he found that
the whole pocket had been cut out of his panta-
looms, and all the money he had with him. about
$775, had been taken. The would-be murderers
had dragged him to the railroad track aud laid
him across the rails, with the intention, no
doubt, of leaving him there for the passage of
the 8 A. NJ. train for this city to consummate
their bloody purpose. few moments before
the arrival of the train DR.. Walker and friend
were passing by in a buggy. and heard the
moans of the wounded man. They put him in
the buggy and took him to a neighborng house,
where his wounds were dressed. At early
hour this morning Mr.. Ross was doing very
well, considering the nature of his wounds.
