tho motion for an injunction, before Justice

of Now York, appear for the petitioner and
B. i. Mcrrick, esq, of this city, and William

The only motion argued was for postpone
ment Of a few days, but this brought out gen.
orally all the features OH both sides of tho
case, but the matter was finally settled by
fixing the hearing for Tuesday of next week
Mr.. Frick said that tho complainants to
this bill had pursued the same course in New
York that they were now taking here, and had
been defeated. They had appealed their
case to higher court. lie gave them notice
that he should press a motion on Tuesday
next for them to clnct whether or not they
would proceed with that case or this. AS
they were exactly alike he did not think that
they should be called upon to defend dupli.

To The Editor of The National Republican:

To The Editor of The National Republican,:
SIR: Captain Bailey's report will soon bo
mado public and 1t will speak for itself in re-
ply to the letter of Mr.. Ball of Tuesday. Mat.
tors of fact assort themselves as matters Of
fact before the jury of public opinion without
tho slightest regard to interests of persons
The writer would not have noticed Mr. Balls
bill and letter by a review based upon his own
knowledge Of the subject, for such action on
his part would have mado tho matter per-
sonal difference of opinion between Mr.. Ball
and himself, but in calling attention to tho
careful, accurate work Of an honorable officer
of the Government, ho raises an issue that Mr..
Ball must meet with tabulatod facts aud not
opinions.
Collector Ball refers to some printed testi-
mony. This testimony, according to tho best
knowledge Of the writer, embraces tho viows
of only three gentlemen, Mr.. Ball being ono
of them, and each and every one OF these gem
tlemen are interested directly in tho passage
of the bill. There Is nothing wrong in this,
only it suggests the idea that tho testimony of
those who have just as good knowledge of
Alaska aud who are opposed to Mr. Balls bill
should also bo printed; then a fair basis for
public opinion to form upon would appear.

why DIyoree IYn. Not Grantcd.

Justice Haguer yesterday denied the peti.
tOn OF Lester w. Burton for divorce from his
WIFI, Nellie l.. Burton. Tho parties were
married at Elmiru, n. Y, September 81, 1575
by the Rev. Addison Parker, and lived to.
gethcr until January, 1877. On a certain day
in that year, at the Canaudigu4 Hotel in
William 5. Smith, and the same misconduct
Hotel, Rochester, n. Y. His Honor in giving
his opinion, said that the circumstances at.
tending the presentation of the cause wero
suggestive Of cOlluslon between the parties.
The defendant was certainly not resident OF
the District, but presents herself here, and on
tho day the summons was issued acknOwl-
edged its service, and aitCrward, with brazen
eilrontery, over her own signature, admits her.
self to be an adultercss to the extent charged
in the bill, far exceeding In infamy the
utmost limit of the testimony. 1t should re-
quiro some affirmative evidence to remove the
impression OF cJnnivauCo ana cJllusiOn to
obtain the divorce which such facts now
naturally excite. This court was not i'll
trusted with tho jurisdiction in cases OF
divorce for the purpose Of facilitating people
in Kidding themselycs OF the legal restraints
OF VOWS they have shameCssly broken, that
they may be the more ready to assume others
which now seem moro attractive. But apart
from this there was no evidence legally before
the court tending to prove adultery. lie said
further that there was nothing to show that
the commissioner who took the testimony in
New York State WAS qualified to act, and
therefore there was nothing authentic in his
roluru.
