4 CLAIMANT Fon AN EAnLDoM IN COURT.
James r. Gylcs, gentleman who lays claim
to Scottish earlLom, is perfecting his title
thereto, and is eaid by those who have looked
into the matter to want only sufficient pecuniary
aid to obtain the meana Of making out a good
case, is just at present seeking 10000 Mt the
hands Of Oswald kubtschky, Charles Harmann,
and John Shoemaker, on m action in tresEass
on tho case, for damages for breaking into his
house, No. 4S North Carpenter street. Mr.
Gylcs charges the. defendants with having en-
tered 1ls residence by forco, torn down
doors, broken open closets, and destroyed
the furniture and iittiugB,. at tho samo
time mixing loud disturbance, thus occupying
the premises, to the terror of the inmates, for
upwards Of three hours, taking with them at
their departure woariug apparel, books and
other property valued ct upwards Of $500. Tho
suit is nota new ono, and the details are fa-
miliar to many Of the +abit4es Of tho Court, but it
is to DO newly begun, the first papcrs being filed
in the Superior Court yesterday.
CAN SUCH THINGS BE?
John T. Moran af1lrms, in o bill for divorce
from his wife, Bridget E.. that he WAS married
to her whilst in state of intoxicaton. He does
not give those details as to the official who ven
tured to perform the ceremony under such cir
c,,u1stances, which tho Court will doubtless re-
quire before granting the relief prayed for. 30
simply asserts, 'your orator WAS induced to
marry her by others, whilst your orator was in q
state OF into1ication, and your orator did not
know what ho was doing at the timo, but as soon
as ho became sober and realized his condition,
he loft her; but sometime thereafter, he was in
duced through her, and her friends entreat-
ment, to live with her again, Oh the as
suranco that she yould in future lead
moral life (she had been q woman Of
ilrepute, and bo good wife to him !; but that,
notwithstanding this sho again fell into her old
conduct, became moro gross and vulgar in
morals and manner, and violent in passion" =" and
he again left her, to for divorce, to have un-
done for him by the Judge. what his own vicious
habits had brought upon him. Marry in haste
and divorce at leisure" is the easy philosophy Of
these fellows It seems incredible that this
mans sworn statement thct ho IVES united to tho
woman whilst so Intoxicated as TO be Ignorant OF
what he was doing, can be true; and impossible
that such things can be, in the nineteenth cea-
tury, and in the most progressive CITY OF the
age. ...... ............
