THE DELINoUENE RAILROADS.
Opening Of the Case In the Chancery Court
YestnrilaY.

The case of the State against the delin-
queut railroads was taken upin the Chan
Gerry Court yesterday, and the preliminary
skirmishing attendant upon such man.
mothlihgation, system maticaily commenced.
There was present an imposing array Of
legal talent. Among others we may men,
ton Ed. II. Ewing, General William a.
Quaries, JohE F. Aouse, Colonel James E.
Bailey, Major Reese and Colonel Colyar.
Colonel House stated thathaving simply
filad plea in bar in behalfof the Memphis
Clarksville Railroad, the previous evening,
for the benefit of opposing counsel he now
wished to withdraw it, and enter plea of
abatement. After some talk on this mat
ter. In which Mr.. Ewing stood firm on
technicalities. on the ground that there
were SO many parties TO fight against that
such conduct was absolutely necessary,
the court allowed the withdrawal of the
ples in bar and permitted the filing of the
plea in abatement. This action translated
into common English is simply this: The
counsel for the Memphis and Clarksville
Read withdrawing their argument in re-
ply TO the bill filed by the counsel for the
State against the delinquents, claim that
the trial of the case cannot legally be en-
tered upon, from the fact that stockhold-
ers of the road, as well as many others in
terested have not been legally notified and
made parties to the suit.
The counsel for the State claim that 1t Is
the duty of those interested to come into
court and petition to be made parties.
After some preliminary sparring the
Chancellor allowed the filing of plea of
abatement, and the question which such
plea involves was partially argued yester-
day afternoon and the decision will proba-
bly, be made to-day.
The general reader will understand that
proceedings in Chancery are exceedingly
technical and do not resemble much those
Of other courts. Many branches of the
case proceed bit by bit and it is often long
before the great question at stake comes
up for hearing.
The main point in the present instance,
and the one on which all hinges, is the
right Of the State to sell the roads. .-Ntysh.

TENNESSEE DrvoRcEs.-The Memr

TENNESSEE DIVORCES. Memphis
Pxthc Ledger says: :" 1t is not generally
known that divorces can be obtained in
Tennessee without the slightest publicity
being given TO them, where the defendant
is Nonresident of the State. All that is
necessary is to abandon your wife in an
other State, come to Tennessee, make it
appear that yon have been here two years
that your wife has abandoned you, or done
something else equally obnoxious; that
her place of residence is not known, and
the thing is done. If her place of residence
is not known, no publication is made; the
sheriff holds the summons in his hands
three saaes,s chs, reesfss 70 with the iaeiren-
nsent, .not to be found" etc.. and de-
cree of divorce is obtained. A man could
have his wife travelling in Europe. and
when she returned after an extended tour
Of two years, it would be only to find her
husband married to another woman. Ten
nessee Is becoming resort for those seek
ing to unite the silken knot which binds
them to an uncongenial spirit, for whom
they have not the slightest affinity. Indi-
ana and New York have become famous
for divorces, but Tennessee has some claims
to that position.

KEEPING TO ONE THINe.-Every young
man, after he has chosen his VOCATION

hard blows are to be struck or 1isapreeable
work performed. Those who have worked
their way up to wealth and usefulness do
not belong to the shiftless and unstable

conquered their prejudices against labor,
and manfully bore the heat and burden oi
the day.
