first ut one card and then ut another.
The sergeant saw him and said:
"Richard, put up the cards; this is
no place for them"
Never mind that" said Richard.
When the service was over the
constable took Richard prisoner
and brought him before the mayor.
"Wcll, what have you brought the

Marrying litt m2araie Men.

In case of divorce heard by the
Franklin County Court, Vermont, on
Wednesday, divorce was asked for on
the ground of intolerable severity, and
wat refused for the time being. The
st. Albans Messenger gives the fol-
lowing account of the result: 1.-THE
evidence showed gross ill-treatment Of
the wife, the petitioner,b the husband
when intoxicated, and that he was
frequently in that condition. At the
hearing the Court asked the petitioner
the wife, If she knew when she mar
ried her husband that he was drink
ing man, and she replied that she did.
After the evidence was in the Court
remarked that they were not prepared
to Z ant divorce ut the present time,
but wished 10 consider the case, and
they were inclined to think that when
woman marries drinking man
with full knowledge of his habit, she
must stand by the risk she was know
ingly taking,a and that divorce should
not be granted on the ground of abuse
by the husband while intox xicated, he
at other times treating her well. On
the coming in OF the Court this morn.
ing they further commented on the
case, and the rule that in the minds of
the Court should be applied in such
cases, and said that in this case the
habit in the husband has become 80
gross, having grown upon him during
the five years that the parties have
been married, aud the wife has suffer-
ed so much from him, that they would
grant the divorce ia this case.n
