RATHER A MIXED CAsE.-On Friday, before
Judge Evans, Baptlste Despot appeared, charged
| by Marie Seriando with assault and battery. The
testimony elected went to show that the parties
had been living together for nearly five years as
man and wife, and that frequent feuds occurred
| between them. The last difficulty occurred ON
the 24th OF August, when, as alleged, Despot not
only beat the woman but struck her in the back
with large glass. The charge being fully SUBJ
etantiated, the accused was sent before the First
District Court under $3.50. Immediately after the
! trial, Despyt filed an affidavit against Maria
SeriandO, charging her with insult and abuse and
disturbing the peace but it is doubtful whether
| this affidavit will be sustained by Judge Evans.
| The woman states that for four years and nine
| months she has been to Despot the same as q
| wife, and he, not belieing his name, has in every
| respect proved thorough despot That from
the beginning of their intimacy to the time of
their separation, soma six weeks since, he is in
deb ed to her in the sum Of $25 per month,
amounting in all to S1425, besides none, she
has entrusted to his care for safe keeping that
on several occasions she has requested the pay
ment OF the whole, or at least part of her Dues
and this request generally excited the wrath OF
Despot, but that upon her last application for her
money he not only beat her, but turned her out
Of house and home, when of course she remon-
strated with him in not very mild terms, which
has caused his charge of insult and abuse and
disturbing the peace.
