THE POTTER DITORCE.

TIL Case Argued by Counsel, and the Mat
ter Taken Under Amusement,
The divorce case Of Sarah Potter against
Samuel NJ. Potter. in which action was
brought on the grounds of desertion, came
before Judge Simons yesterday on a
motion for temporary alimony. 1t will be
remembered that the suit was brought last
June, and that the complaint laid bare a
social scandal of more than ordinary in
terest and magnitude. The allega-
tions of the complaint constituted
a strange chapter in the history of domes-
tic life, and the revelations would form
the framework for an interesting romance.
It is alleged that the defendant, Potter,
deserted his wife and five children in Eng
land in 1868, after he had mortgaged his
property and applied tina proceeds to his
individual benefit. Upon arriving in Amer
lea he came to st. Paul, where by industry
and enterprise he has accumulated a snug
fortune.
The peculiar feature of the suit is the
allegation teat he took unto himself an
affinity in this city-a lady of unimpeach-
able pectability the two have
since resided together ds man and wife.
Mr. D. O'Brien, counsel for Mrs. Pot
ter. the English branch of the family, ad-
drefsed the court on behalf of the injured,
and Mr.. w. Il. Sanborn appeared for the
defendant, Mr.. Potter.
In addressing the court Mr.. O'Brien said
that the question at issue was whether or
not man could abandon his wife, and re-
pudiate his marital relations and escape
with impunity, on the plea that she had
not helped him to accumulate fortune.
Counsel referred to the peculiar relations

of this city; Hon. r. w. Button, of City
Point; Hon. Mark Douglass and E. n.
Polleys, of Melrose; II. g. Calender, of
Irving; @. A. Goodyear, of Tonah, and j
Z. Batcheller, of Davenport, Iowa. Mr..
Merrill met the gentlemen Tuesday morn
ing and the project was discussed at con-
siderable length. The route proposed
for the road is from Remington,
Wood county, on the Valley
road; through this city and to La Crosse
via Winona junction. The various i'm
portant points in the matter were duly
considered-the amount of aid that would
be given by the several towns, the amount
of general traffic here, the extent of tribu-
tary pine lands and the probable shi p
ment of ore. Mr.. Merrill expressed him
self as favorably disposed toward the pro
| iect, but of course no very definite ar
rangements could be made till meeting
of the directors of the Milwaukee road.
He seemed very willing to assist Mr.. But
ton in the building of the road to get out
the logs on Morrison's creek, and the pros
pect in that direction is exceedingly
good.
The engineer of the Chicago, Milwaukee
& St.Paul will be up here soon to look over
the proposed route. The profile of the old
survey will be looked up,and will aid much
in getting an idea of the lay of the coun-
try. Messrs Ainsworth and Button expect
to examine the ground between here and
Morrison's creek this afternoon, to get an
idea of the best route for the line in which
Mr.. Button is especially interested.
Those best informed in the matter re-
gard the chances of securing the proposed
road as very good. The immense advan
tages to this place are manifest The
increased facility of transportation and
the competition of rival railway compa-
MES are very considerable aids to business
enterprise. The "air line'' to La Crosse is
actually ga want long felt"

S1TIYG TIE FORESTS.

The movement looking TO the preservation
of the Adirondack forests encounters compar-
atively little opposition. Here and there in the
counties bordering upon the great wilderness
newspaper fights it on the theory that its success
would mean serious injury to those counties.
The most important of these prOteStants is The
Ogdensburg Journal 1t argues that to save the
forests is to prevent the development of North
en New York. In behalf of the mining and
numbering interests of that section it urges the
woodman not to spare the trees. at is just as
essential" it says, to the prosperity of St.
Lawrence Franklin and the other counties
switch make the wilderness that the lumber
"and minerals shall be utilized rs il. is that
"water shall run down the Hudson"
The holders Of this view Of the matter may
well be commended to the fable of the goose
that laid the golden egg. The Hudson lays the
golden egg of the prosperity of this State, and
either the forests must stay or the Hudson must
go. Nobody wants to see any project put
through that will operate to the disadvantage
of the lumbermcn of St. Lawrence or the miners
of Essex or Franklin. But there il n wide
spread and urgent demand for the prompt con-
servatiOn of the greatest good of the greatest
number of the people of New ork in this vital
matter of water supply. 1t has been demon
strated that the rapid destruction of the trees
on the watershed of the upper Hudson, and the
very considerable decrease in the volume of
that part Of the river, stand to each other In the
relation of cause and effect. That fact is the
unanswerable argument in favor of preserving
the Adirondack timber; an argument whose
full significance is not appreciated until it is
remembered that blow at the Hudson is q
blow at another goose that lays golden eggs for
New YOrk-its great canal system. Take away
the Hudson and the canals and where would the
miners and lumbermen OF Northern New
York bel A fatal injury to the vital parts
comes home to the eXtremties.
1t is confidently expected that the next Lcgis
lature will pass an adequate measure of relief.
Our Albany correspondent telegraphs that the
committee appointed by the last Senate on
Adirondack preservation will report against
purchasing the woodlands in bulk. No inten-
ton has been manifested from any quarter to
interfere with vested rights, to disregard any
equities. But there is a determination that the
common veal of this great State shall be Sc
curely guarded against the dire evil which now
threatens ii.
