a sau o"se "a iaihliy TROUBLES came up in
Justice Horns court on Monday afternoon
last. The facts are about as follows: A
family by the name of Garraty, consists
OF husband, wife and five or six children. 1t
appears that the man and wife have not been
on good terms for some time, and it came to
such pitch that they agreed to disagree, and
finally they parted, the children following the
mother, the husband keeping house on his
own account at the Hook the mother rent
ed a dwelling near the Sproat Mill. The
children that were able were employed in that
establishment. During the greater part of
the yearthe father employed his time peddlng
through the country various kinds of mer-
chandise, and the mother being of q business
turn also made quite trade at. peddling
stockings, table linen, fancy soaps, &C.
Lately it appears the oldest daughter had left
her mother for some cause aud had gone to
the fathers domicile to manage the household
affair for him. On Thursday last while the
mother was absent from the house, this daugh.
ter came there and helped herself to various
articles, which the mother claims, and was
noticed by the neighbors taking the articles
from the house, aud going over the hill near
the house. Word was Immediately sent to
the mother, who after ascertaining her loss
followed the daughter aud finally arrived at
the fathers house. The business done there
was short and quick and of the rough kind
The husband attacked the wife and beat her
in brutal manner, aud not content with
this, he pushed her out in the public street
and felled her to the ground, winding up
with kicking her in her side aud limbs and
stamping upon her face with his feet, and it
is said If it had not been for the interference
of neighbois, perhaps would have ended her
existence. Her appearances at the court well
testified to these facts. After somewhat re-
covering and gaining strength from the terri
BILE abuse, she managed to 60 toward the
Franklin street bridge and was noticed there
by tho Mayor-who happened to be passing
with blood streaming down her face and her
appearance denoted aterrible struggle, as the
Mayor testified to the court. He adv Used her
