Before Judge Robinson.
The particulars OF the Mcintyre divorce case hav-
ing already been fully published in the HERALD. 1t

She was young and beautiful, and had just COM
pleted her education at the Convent OF St. Vincent
He was some ten years older. and, being man Of
weath-through success in building he acquired
his wealtn-took her after their marriage to
finely furnished residence in West Forty-sixth
street. Her story Is that in less than two months
he attempted to scrangle her, and that to escape
further violence at his hands she was obliged to
followed Reconciliation and still his ungovernable
temper would get the mastery OF him, till,
when she could forgive him no longer,
she brought suit Tor divorce on the
ground OF cruelty. This suit was abandoned, how
ever, and another suit instituted, charging him
with adultery and asking divorce on this ground.
| The matter was sent before referee This referee
| reported that the charge OF adultery was proven
| that decree Of divorce should be granted and
| $1,000 alimOny allowed Mrs. Mcintyre. One OF his
| findings OF fact was that Mcintyre was worth
| $4,000, and that pretended cOnyeyances to his
| brother Of his property were invalid. The confrma
ton Of this report was opposed on the ground that
! Mr.. Mcintyre was unaware that the question Of
| adultery was before the referee. The case was
| argued at length yesterday In this Court. Afn-
| dav1ts were also presented showing that Mr.. Nc
adultery was gwen and that the counsel expressly
stated In his presence that they had no defence to
mako to this charge. The case Will he argued this
morning at further length.

SUNDAY ADJUDICATIONS.

Expe1ling a Member from q Benevolent
Society Because He Would Not Appear
for Trial on nday-The Case In the
Courts.
There Is society in this city which might very
properly be designated the Alphabetical Society,
Its initial letters being Y NJ. F. M. U. b. T. A. b. So
ciety, Branch l. Mathew Corrigan was member
Of this society. Speaking seriously for no dsre.
spect is meant TO the Society," this Is Of the
widely known benevolent societies OF this city,
and, with its large enrolment of members, has
been the medium OF widely disseminated benevo-
lence. Mr.. Corrigan, however got into difficulty
In some way, and In reply TO charges made
against him was summoned TO appear on Sunday
June 2, 1872 for trial. He refused to go to trial on
Sunday, and the result was that he was expelled
through default In making his appearance. Fol-
lowing his expulsion an order to show cause was
granted by Judge Barrett why mandamus should
uot issue against the society, directing his re-
instatenent. Judge Barrett decided that he was
legally tried and expelled, and on this account
he refused 10 grant the mandamus. An appeal
was taken from this decision to the Supreme Court
General Term, and the case came mp for argument
yesterday In this Court, Judges Ingraham and Da-
Wis being on the bench.
Mr. Matthew p. Breen opened the argument. he
insisted that by the act Of ls4s for the ncorpora-
ton OF benevolent societies, in conformity with
which the above society was Incorporated, ne
authority Is given 70 such societies to transact
business on sundays; but, on the contrary that IL
is declared that all their rules and regulations for
government must be subservicnt to the laws OF the
State and OF the United States. He further urged
that by the common law all judicial proceedings
are prohibited on Sunday, and this expulsion,
being on sunday, was Illegal and void.
Colonel G. spencer, In reply, commended that Cor
rigan, In joining the society, made himself amena-
BILE TO its laws In meeting on sunday, and also that
this being n benevolent and semi-religious organi
cation, Its meetings on Sunday were eminently
proper. He referred TO Christ healing the sick on
Sunday, and claimed that no higher authority on
this point was needed than this.
Judge Davis said that the Court had no doubt OF
the questoa as to the proprety OF the association
meeting on Sunday but that the question was
whether the expulsion was legal by default. On
this point the Court reserved its decision.

the irregularities OF the Improvement Commits
siOn whatever they may have been. He also held
