The cross cases growing out of an attempt
by constable S. II. Luckett and assistants to
capture piano, on writ Of replevin, from
the house of Mr.. Patrick Foley, on Seventh
street, last Wednesday, came before Judge
Bundy yesterday. All the assault cases were
nOlle pressed except the one in which Luckett
was charged with ASSEMBLING Mrs. Michael
Foley, which went to trial. Mrs. Michael
Foley testified to the invasion of tho Foley
castle by Luckett. The alleged assault con.
sisted in roughly pushing Mrs. Foley across
passage, and forcing open door which she
was guarding. Henry Kelly, Mrs. Pat Foley
and Margaret Foley all gave interesting de-
tails of the same transaction. Luckett testi-
fed that Mr.. Foley gave his consent to the
removal of the piano, but Mrs. Foley met him
at the head Of the stairs with II threat that she
would blow his brains out, aud would not al
low him to enter the ROOM He made no as.
saut and used no force. James H. Tucker,
who accompanied Luckett corroborated his
testimony. During the examination Of Luck
EFT and Tucker the Mcsdames Foley kept up
u continual pantomime indicating their aston.
ishment at the lack Of veracity in the wit
nesses. Mrs. Michael Foley broke out several
times in excited EXPLANATIONS of indignation
and had to be cautioned several times by coun-
sci and balitIs. The case was dismissed. The
charge of disordery conduct preferred against
all the parties by Officer Robey will be dis.
posed Of this morning.

Ella L. Simpson has filed bill for divorce
from her husband, Charles II. Simpson. The
conplainant's maiden name was Ella L. Mills,
and the parties to this suit were married ut ST.
Aloysiuss Church, by Rev. Father Mcguire,
December %, 1872. They lived together in
peace and harmony until Scptembe 1873
from which time the wife charges that hcr
husband has continued TO be grossly and
habitualy incorporate, guilty of intolerable
cruelty TO her, and endangering her life
About September LIST last past she learned that
her husband had another wife living at the
time he married with her, aud on hearing that
| fact the plaintiff left him and refused to
| cohabit with him. He followed her to the
| house of a relative, where both lodged, and
upon the advice of friends and her inability
| at that time to prove the former marriage
she went again to live with him. Suisse
quently she separated from him, and when, in
the present month"; the defendant d scovered
that she had found proof of his first marriage,
he left tho city. The complainant now AYERS
that she is prepared to prove that her hus-
band was married on December "a, 1861, to
Henrietta Bishop, in Baltimore, Nd, by Rev.
Samuel Sprecher, then pastor Of the Third Eng
fish Lutheran Church; aud since his second
marriage he has been in constant correspond
ence with the first wife. She asks for alimony
and permission to assume her maiden name.

The Ornhnns, Hanny Day.

Upon the invitation of Dir. Christie, of
Uniontown, the Sisters and orphans of St.
Joseph's Asylum spent a most enjoyable day
on Thursday at Fairlswn, the residence of the
kind-hearted doctor. The orphans were at
liberty TO roam everywhere and eat as much
fruit as they pleased, privilege which they
awaited themselves of, and for few hours
their enjoyment was unalloyed. Then hearty
repast of substantials was served, with all
manner of delicacies too numerous TO mention
Mrs. Christie was untiring in her efforts TO
make the little fellows as happy as possible
In the evening the children were engaged ut
various games, made Nil the more interesting
by tho active part which the doctor and lady
took in them, with few kind friends, whose
presence contributed TO make the little fellows
happy. The little guests left with regret be-
fore dark, and with hearts overlooking with
thanks and gratitude for their kind and gem
erous benefactors at Fairlawn.
