The Cross Town Railroad Injunction.

In this suit, the particulars OF which have
been already published in the HERALD Judge
Donohue yesterday rendered the following decis-
ion:-The plainti1s ask to restrain the defendants
from running the road or the latter to the west
OF the line that they pass from West

charter they have the right to 90 down West
street, from West street to Christopher and then
turn their track to the west on temporary street
to the Jerry at the END o IT, II seems to me that
OH any reading OF the corporation charters THAI l
oan arrive at the Legislature never intended
to let the defendants pass 10 the west OF where
they on West street. No Iair reading of their
charter would pc rmit the bringing OF their road
Christopher street. 70 strengthen this view
there are many considerations, among others,
lege, as IN tue plaintin's charter they used the
proper words. and at the same time the defend-
ants charter was passed there was no such place
to run to as the defendants here claim the right
TO go to. The argument tnat the City map recog.

The Remand Case.

The habeas corpus case Of the State
of Tennessee OK rel Renaud was com
menced yesterday afternoon before
Judge Flippin Of the Criminal Court,
and the investigation was resumed this
morning. Several witnesses were on
the stand and examined as to the books
of the Secretary and Treasurer OF the
Howard Association. The testimony
went to show that mistakes did occur,
unavoidably, in these bookg, owing to
the press of business. Mr.. Foster, of
the Auditing Committee testified that
the Association received $4,000, and
disbursed $4,000, as appeared from the
accounts and vouchers Of the Treasurer.
The examination closed until this after
noon, when Mr.. Mansford, the Treasurer,
will be placed on the stand, and the ar
gument of counsel will be heard. The
present investigation is for the purpose
Of Diminishing the prosecution.
The following letter from Mrs. Remand
to Judge Flippin was presented to the
Court last evening:
MENPHIs. January q. 1874.
JUDGE FLIPPN-Hon. Sir: | regret
exceedingly all that has transpired rela-
tive to this most unhappy affair Hav-
ing taken preparation from DIR. Arm
strong, my nerves were quieted; my SEN
timent somewhat allayed, | am better
prepared to tell you the whole OF the
matter, so far as | recollect, which is
this: For several weeks have known
that my husband visited Miss Fin
ley; believe them too intimate Well,
the night before this statement Il can
not say what night it was), / went be-
tween nine and ten o'clock to see
Miss Finley; had an interview with
her, which did not tend to weaken my
suspicious. | returned home, told my
husband / had found out all his
perfdy, knew everything. He only
tantalized me, but admitted everything
accused him Of / know now he did
it to tease me. He admitted that he
did visit my rival he told me TO help
myself; said he would do as he pleased.
This fred my brain with Jealousy,
and almost drove me frantic. The
rashest of things they say | did. |
would not make oath as to whether
or no / did them. 1 scarcely know
where / went, what did or said, and
feel convinced that Almighty God does
not hold me responsible for what | did.
| had fever for three days, neither. ate
nor slept. / may have said or done
more than your honor has heard. | am
only thankful that it was no worse. |
know now that acted rashly, but then !
neither knew nor cared what l did. !
have had money ever since | was mar
ried of my own, which ! can prove.
The money which | in madness gave
away belonged to me and my child.
II got it honestly. My husband is
an honorable, honest man. His only
fault is breaking his marriage vows
and breaking my poor heart. l
love him to idolatry. My orly desire
was to keep him from clipping with this
woman, as / firmly believed he was
going to do. ] am sorry for it all, but
under the same circumstances my mind
might be wrought on to do the same
thing again. / can only pray my
heavenly father, whom try to serve,
to watch over me and enable me to bear
patiently all my troubles, should such
ever be mine again.
GSigued. MRS. RENAUD.
