happy domestic relations in the Buchanan

ted with Mrs. Buchanan for the sale Of the
pleted by Feb. -, 1854. When the first pay
mcnt became due Mrs. Buchanan was unable
TO meet 1t, claiming that her husband had
failed to comply with an agreement of separa-
ton by which She was to receive 5000 After
rcciting the failure to meet the notes given in
payment, Mr.. Fclter asked that the defendants
be compelled TO pay him the balance of the
purchase money, or in default that the prop
erty be sold. Mrs Buchanan, by permission
of the court, last Saturday filed her separate
answer to the bill, and also a cross bill against
her husband. In the answer she says that she
informed Slr. FcltCr at their first interview of
the relations between herself and husband,
and says he fully knew the conditions on
which the purchase was made. In her cross
bill Mrs. Buchanan says that owing to
disputes and unhappy differences between her
and her husband she is now living apart
from him, In accordance with the terms of
certain articles of separation mutually en-
tered into on Jan. 10, 1881. by those articles
he promised to pay her $1,000 to provide
fund for her separate maintenance, and on
trustee $500 and three notes of $500 each. She
entered into negotiations with Mr. Fclter 10
purchase the property mentioned, stating that
she was a married woman living separate
from her husband. She paid 5000 down, and
agreed to pay the balance on the 10Th of
March, Before the notes fell due she refused
10 join her husband in the conveyance of
their homestead property, which 1t had been
understood should not be sold, and he refused
to pay the notes when they came due. She
asks that Mr.. Felter be restrained In the fore
closure and sale of the property, and that Mr..
Buchanan be decreed to pay the amount of
the notes.

Strange Story Told by Man Who Sues for
10000 Damages.

Mr.. j. NJ. Darlington, as attorney, filed last
Saturday II "pauper' suit, in which Grauerson
Kelton claims $4,000 damages from the Balti-
more and Potomac Railroad company. The
declaration states that on Aug. 10 last the con-
ductor on train $40 p. IN. agreed to take the
defendant from the navy yard tunnel TO
Bowie, Md. and then be transferred to the
Pope's Creek line and taken TO La Plata station
without paying his fare in advance, but 1t
would be paid ut the station by his wife upon
the safe arrival of Mr.. Kclton. In violation of
this promise, he says, that the conductor or
dcrcd him 10 leave the train, and not doing so
the conductor flew into passion, beat the
plaintiff, and calling to his assistance two of
the employees of the road they threw him from
the train, about ten miles from this city while
Il was in motion, inluring one foot so that 1t
had to be amputatcd, and nilicting injuries in
other parts of his body. He says that the en-
ployes of the company paid no attention to
him, except TO push him down an embank-
ment whore he remained until the next day.
He was then accidentally discovered by clti-
zen of Maryland, who reported his condition
and he was brought to this city and taken to a
hospital, and subsequently to his home In
Desmond alley, where he is still confined sui-
lcrug from the injuries he has received.

D. Mkens, calling upon all persons claiming
any right, title, or interest In the $500 OF
United States bonds in dispute to enter their
appearance before the next rule day occurring
after forty days from the date Of the order. II
Is alleged that these bonds are a remnant of
5000 worth which were in the possession of
Mary Ann Davidson before her DEATH and LEFT

soldiers, before going into battle, aud which,
II is claimed, were left in trust by her with

william d. Aiken, aud he placed them in trust
with his brother, Matthew Aiken jr., who
turned them over to his guardian, William II.
BarstOw and VINO delivered them by order of
the court to the register of wills.
The United States now lays claim to the
bonds, for the reason that there are no heirs
at.law or next of kin of the original owners of
the property who can be held TO be the lawful
owners These bonds are also claimed by
Matthew d. Aiken rs coming from the estate
of his wife, q full account OF which and the
