AUBURN, N. Y, Feb. 0.-In the su.
preme Court chambers, at special term
held yesterday, Judge G. G. Dwight
granted decree annulling the marriage
OF Catherine @. johnson and Ashley.P
Johnson, allowing each to re.marry.
The case is peculiar one. Mrs. John.
sons maiden name was Gertrude Nett
lach, and she now resides with her pa.
rents in this city. Her husband was a
stepson Of George Z. johnson, late Of
the law firm Of johnson and Aiken,
The ceremony was performed on the
night OF March 8, 1856, by the Rev, Con.
stantinc Ulrich, then pastor OF the St..
Alphonsus German Catholic church. OF
which Miss Mettlach and her parents
were members. -
The girl was 10 and very pretty, and
johnson was IS years oiaso. The couple
had become acquainted as playmstes in
childhood. On the night OF the marriage
johnson wentto the girls house and told
her the priest wanted to sec her. She
accompanied Johnson to the parsonage.
but nothing was said on the way about
tho object OF his visit. When there
Johnson told her that they we're to he
married, and he would surely shoot her
ifshe objected. Father Ulrich came to
the door and ushered them into the mar.
lor. Antoine Mantel and Theodore Kos.
ters were procured as witnesses and the
ceremony was hastily performed. =
Miss Mettlach says she can remembe,
but little that was said by the priest A.
it was partly in Latin. Her firai
knowledge Of the nature Of the cere. ere,
mony was when the priest said: "Now
you nre married. Iwish you much low
She went at once to her parents and toid
them OF the occurrence. They were
very indignant, and kept her from the
man who was, her husband in name
only. This was made easy !or theu,
from the fact that Oanandaigua officers
were looking Tor johnson ior breaking
jail and borrowing a bicycle sto gel
away. { 81 rs 4; "a

that the opposition will be manifested
otherwise than by speeches and by ad.

minority are afforded what they regard
as reasonable time for discussion.

the Irish fisheries commissioner who I'D.

tragedy on the north coast among the
benefciaries Of the fund. Fishing is at
all times q hazardous pursuit on the
eastern and northern coasts of Ireland,
for storms arise so suddenly that boats
never dare venture far from shore. But
during the great Atlantic storm last
month it was courting death to venture
out at all. However, nine fishermen OF
Rosykill, in Donegal, pushed by ne.
cesslty to earn bread, ventured of the
coast into the mouth OF Lough Swilly
during a lull in the storm OF the eleventh
OF last month.
Suddenly, without moments warn.
ing, the fury of the storm was renewed,
The boat was dashed to pieces at the
foot OF the cliff on Fanad Point, and all
her occupants lost. By this accident fif.

Five OF the fishermen were married, and
leave five widows and thirty orphans
and four were single men who left three
fathers, three mothers and thirteen
small sisters aud brothers.
