A Curious Bigamy Case.

During the first week of last
month there took place at Ply.
mouth, England, one of the most
curious trials for bigamy yet re.
corded. Reduced to its simple
terms 1t is as follows: William
Cox was charged with intermarry-
ing Rosina Knight, his first wife,
Caroline Drake, being alive. It
was proved that William Cox had
married Caroline Drake, but as she
was the wife Of George Mortified,
he left her and married Rosina
Knight. On learning this, Caro-
line Drake {whose husband, George
Merrifeld, had since been married
to another woman) instituted pro.
ceedlngs against William Cox.
But it was proved that before
George Merrifield married Caro-.
line Drake he had another wife
living. His marriage with Caro-
line Drake was therefore illegal,
and William Cox felt himself at
liberty to marry Caroline Drake.
But it was also proved that Caro-
line Drake had q husband when
marrying William Cox. His mar
riage with Caroline Drake was
therefore illegal, and Rosina
Knight became the lawful wife of
William Cox. The bench accord
ingly ordered George Merrifisld
and Caroline Drake to be prosecut.
ed and discharged William Cox.
How the judges felt after puzzling
this out IL not stated.

The eccentric Grand Duke Con-

brother, while residing at Warsaw,
gave q splendid banquet to q mum.

each OF whom, at the conclusion of
the feast, an ordinary tallow candle
was served on = plate. The Grand

placed upon his plate, then rose
and exclaimed, "Gentlemen, let
US eat, to the honor OF Russia, the
favorite national com stible Of my
country. Look at me. This is the
way to do It," SO saying, he
threw back his head, opened his
mouth wide, and inserted the can.

ever, the expression Of his couute.
nance suffered an extraordinary
change. One OF the noblemen sit
ting in bis imm ediate vicinity had
contrived to substitute his own
genuine taltow candle for the
marchpane initiation set before the
Grand Duke, who, not choosing to
betrsy himself to his guests, found
himself condemned to chew at
least one copious mouthful Of good
Russian tallow, a. an example to
all the Victims Of his Jest. The
dexterous appropriation Of the
marchpane candle, while dsvour-
Ing that toothsome article, baffied
suspicion by the most hldeous Wis.
ual contortions, expressive of loath-
Ing and nausea.

that out Of fourteen persons ten
have been rescued alive. A family

Seven other families are probably

have been in part removed to this

here, but several dwellings are
completely washed away. Water
and Ice to the depth of twelve feet

ct KIncardtne, Canada. The Rev.

parties were about equally to
blame, and dismissed it.
