It is true, that. in this case there were no proofs of settle- m^nt—pin money—splendid e. quipage— elopements— duels & doctors commons, and all those regular gradations Which accom pany an established case of Eng- lish crim con ; yet the plaintiff was an honest black citizen, a little “ declining in the vale ol years” as Othello says, who had married a young and handsome mulatto, but who, it appears was not in court. Thompson the defendant, was also an old beau, and had an ex cellent character, and was, with al, a man of property. It ap- peared by t«i testimony that Thompson brpoght sundry packagea to plantiiTs wife, and by these little gratuitous atten tions won her affections arid par ried her off: and it also appear ed in evidence that, in the midst of these miscellaneous proceed, ings,' a child was bom, which neither party owned. Witness es were; examined to prove that Ferguson had ill-treated his wife, and frequently turned her out of doors -• and the' court charged the jury thalfcxemplary damages should be .awarded where, the peace of mind and happiness of the husband had been injured but if it appeari& that he lhad used his wifrill’without cause, and had tumedher out ofdoors, he, hitnselC-created a barrier to arty compensation. ” The ju^rt 'retired for some time, and bfQyVht in a verdict of two hundred and fifty two dollars and the costs. r ^XinumlipriSf filack ladies and gentlem^paUentiedthis interest.; ing trial .f they-feejneatly and; fashionablyairesiW»;-ahd thel^^j 'dies bluslwl#,}htkfWhfcn cxsm- wvestig-ij. tio n , ~ A a f . 4 4 v ,. - 1 STATE COJ\r£NTT0M S kptkmbcr 23.
