WILL NEVER COME To TRIAL.
special dispatch to the Philadelphia Press
from Richmond, Dec. 81, says The identity of
Mrs. Henrietta Pigeon. nee Hodson, who figures
as the principal in the celebrated divorce suit

New York have telegraphed here and confessed
that Mrs Pigeon and Mrs. Labouchere is one
and the same person. Richmond society is in a
delightful fiutter of excitement over the devel-
opments which have grown out of Mrs. La
oouchere's visit to this city. Newspaper men
here were apprised of Mrs. Labouchere's de-
parture from New York on December for this
city and in vain watched for her coming the ap-
pearance of the name of plain Mrs. Pigeon on
the hotel register affOrdin1 no clue to the pres-
ence OF the Jersey Lily's friend. During her stay

back as October the prOpriety of instituting pro-
ceedlngs in this state The correspondence be-
tween her New York counsel and the Richmond
law firm commenced, it is understood. about
