pears Cunningham was sentenced to
the Mississippi penitentiary for long
term upon evidence given by Bell.

case has been decided. Both the lady
and her husband had fled an applica-
ton for judicial separation. Madame
PATHS application was refused and
her husbands was granted. The SEN
tence states that Madame Patti does
not even offer to bring forward any
proofs Of the facts she alleges. On The

spondence addressed to Madame Patti
by a third person, show that her con-

vorces are unrecognized by French
law, neither party CAL marry again.
The sitting was public. The Marquis
de Csux was present. The decision
was rendered by the tribunal on the
first instant.
