THE WATERFORD NEWS AND GENERAL ADVERTISER-JUNE 11, 1875. Original JJoctrij. A DIVORCE CASE OF LOCAL INTEREST. In the Divorce Conrt, London, on Friday, Sir James on the 4th at Barron's house, Goulane, to disinfect it, but owing to there being another member of the family ill in the house with fever, I was obliged to defer doing so until thn following dav 1 the patient in the interim DUXQAHVAN CORRESPONDENCE. PETTY SESSION'S Saturoav.

Before Sir J. N.llumblo. Burt, (chairman): Messrs. their doors. The court allowed seven days for their abatement, and in tho event of not complying with the directions of the court within that period, to be charged each 10s.

Tho Guardians themselves are tho best mitre as to tho wisdom of so lanre an outlay of this lief, but tho nuomial manner in whieh it is distributed sis'ins worthy of Wing remarked usn. There are in the t'ounl Waterfonl srtion of the union 7iM.stntnto aiTes, and a rpnlatioii, aetsiriling to the census of lSill, of The County Kilkenny ortion of the union consists of statute acres, with a jsipnlation of 1 1, ami Tel the amount ot Mut-door lie lief mven the hitter district is nearly threo times as great as in tho ormer.

There an advance of i-TO for tho snnnort of the inmates in the Blind Asylnm, cunscd by thu fact of two children nuvimr isvn sent mere last year. An adraiu-e of npis-ars in the Establishment ex jienses. Sonio of the fixed hendimrs of expenditure of this account liave.vlvatiei-d whilst others have decreased. There were, however, some sss-ial charges Un this ofHkrLiin-iib uiw iiiuuir no oi ins lemnnr- ary hospiial wards in tho main houe, tho furnishing of i no Assisuint acnnoimusicr apartment, tho repairs of tho onneil, fte. In consideration of theso extra charges I havo reduced tho Estahlishuient Expenses in tlio Estimate -U -'iO.

1 ho lanre increase in tho Rnrial Board Expenses is mainly due to the erection of the Mortnarv Chais in this Guardians' Cemetery. To meet tho expense consequent non the erection ol this Chapel, and other improvements that hare been carried ont there, and to put the nunsi jmjutu in worsing orticr, a poundage oi ono nail-penny was included in tho lost Bate, which returned sum of 31 This amonnt was transferred from tho Bates to the credit of tho Burial Board, and has been charged against tho Burial Account. With regard to the Burial Board Account itself, there is at Present a balance of -i'l JO to its credit, but an old debt of remains due, tho residue of a loan of borrowed from tho Kates in 18-V. and which, owinrr to tho novertv oi iuu Aiunui uooni runus, was not aiscnargcti beiore. As the means are now available I have presented a hill to tho Finance Committee for this sum, whieh will be transferred to tho credit of tho Union Funds, leaving me bviuiuiiid unuuico A-sir, Thn enx-tinn nf hn Mnvinnw i M'l and there is yet duo tho bill for shrubs, Ac, that havo oeen puinicu in too cemetery.

The maximum overdraft amounted to X2tL and thn interest paid on mo I Ann was 4.1b Os. 3d. Iho advance in tho Elections. Law. and Other Ex penses Acconnt is also duo to an extraordinary cause There is included this Acconnt for last year a sum of tlloti levied by Sealed Onlcr of tho Local Government Board for tho Purpose of tho Cattle Plarme Fund.

courso neither this item nor that in the Burial Board Account will ariso this year, and consequently they are uifl mciuoct 111 II1U IVUUIUIU. There is nothinir callinir for remark in the Disnenmr. feme, whieh show a slight reduction as compared with last year. Tho licgistration Expenses are lower also, bnt thoy wiioKi-iiier eouiujeill, uiou UIO numDCT OI births, Ac, registered. The Sanitary Expenses show an advance of JC2-1.

Tho Salaries of the five Sanitary Sub-Olfieers were increased by Xo each. There was due to the Executive Sanitary fMficer, and to tho Knral Sanitary Officers, on the 25tn March last, a half-year's salary. For the payment of this half-year's salary, as well as that of the current year, ai-cording to scale fixed by the Local Government Board, I havo made provision in the present Estimate. i nen auownnco is mado i or I tie two extraordinary items of exienilitnrc charged in tho accounts, the Burial Bate and the Cattle I'lagne Assessment, amounting to the fluctuations in the cost of the several deiartnicnts are sneh as may alwavs lie reasonably ex. M-ctcd to nrise, and I think the Guardians havo reason to congratulate themselves nisn tho successful manner in which tho I'nion Funds havo licen administered during tho uist year.

Iho average daily nnmlier of Panpers relicred last year was :i.i. 1 he rsxt head for Maintenance and declined from Ms. M. in to 'J Is. 3l.

Taking into consideration the ho)M-ful prosjieet of a iMiruiTiiui narvesi, and the eonqskrativi-iy low hiriiro at which wo havo secured some, and are likely to obtain tho rest, of onr contracts, I am of opinion that the average co-4 will come down even more, and I accord-ingly propose to rt-duco the amount for tho current year to l.ss. l. The average daily nnmls-r of Paners relieved for tho past thns' years was and the numlier in tho House at pre-ent is lawly in ex--s of this time last year.

ih vi-ions, I find tho following Poundaco Kates are required Kate required. Kate last yoar. Hannen had before him the cause of Springfield v. bpringbeld and Bonrae, in which the husband prayed a divorce on the ground of his wife's adultery with the oo-respondent. In opening the case, Dr.

Spinks stated that at the time of the marriage, which was celebrated at St. Paul's, Knightsbridge, the petitioner was a captain in the 5th Dragoons, and the respondent a sister of tho present Marquis of Ely, and a daughter uf the Dowager Marchioness. They lived at various places. but the petitioner had occasion to find fault with his wife's extravagance, and this cou tinned after the Marquis came of age, and made the respondent an allowance. In the end there was a separation, and from a letter it appeared that the respondent went to Brussels with tho co-respondent, Captaio Bourne, and that they cohabited as man and wife.

The petitioner, George Osborne Springfield, was called, and stated tbat he had formerly a commission io the 5th Dragoons, and was married to his wife at Knightsbridge in 1867, with tbo consent of both parties his regiment was then quartered at the Curraghnd be left his wife at her mother's when he went to iuin it afterwards the regiment lay at Colchester, aud witness and his wife lived there, and at tbat time he had 800 or 900 besides his pay he had occasion to complain of his wife's extravagance. and in consequence of that and debts, in 1868, he was compelled to sell out after he did so for some months he lived at Colchester in December he went over to Ely Lodge to shoot, and his wife remained in Emr. land, it being understood that she should go to ber sister's, but be found tbat she had gone to Loftas Hall, county Wexford she returned with Lady Ely. and afterwards a house was taken at Kingstown, and Lady ily assisted tbem alter a while they lived at Bray, aud in 1870 Lord Ely made a settlement on respondent after that she was still extravagant, and they lived above their income, and there were disagree niants iu consequence in May, 1872, there was a di'cussiou about a deed of separation, and as tbe respondent persisted in having one, they came over to London, and one was going to be prepared when the respondent changed her mind there was then a conversation about the debts, and witness asked his wifo to tell him what was really owing, bat she failed to tell him the full amount in December, 1872, his wife lett her home in Ireland daring the absence of witness he tried to get her back, but she refused to come a deed of separation was afterwards executed, and witness with his daughter, went to reside in Norfolk the co-respondent was a oaptain in witness's regiment, and knew them at Colchester, and wat an occasional visitor at the honse in February cf this year witness bad a letter from Mr. Foster, and from him witness heard of the letter from the respondent, in which sbe spoke of being with Bourne, the co-respondent after this, witness had the present petition filed.

Mr. Reginald H. Parker, solicitor, stated that, in consequence of instructions, ho went on tbe 18th of February over to Brussels to find tbe respondent and the co-respondent he found them at tbe Hotel do 1' Europe Capt. Bourne was pointed out to him by the porter, and witness informed him of tbe object of his visit soon after the respondent came in, and was introduced to witness as Lady Marian." They stated that they had been there a few days, and were going the next day to Paris. Witness at once telegraphed to London, and a petition was prepared and sent to witness afterwards he sent a copy of the petition and the citations on to the respondent and the co-respondent, Malina Featherstono said she was at Paris with Lady Marian, and was in ber service eighteen months.

She wa? with hei at the Hotel de I'Europe in Bros sols, and at that time the co-respondent was with the respondent, having met her at the Victoria Station. In Brnssels the respondent and the corespondent occupied the same bedroom. Sir James Hannen- granted a decree nirt, with costs. Security in Crediting."

Sanitary Officer's Report. Tho executive sani. tnry officer reported as follows I issued summonses for next petty sessions against Edmond Power, Jeremiah Guirv, John Curran. and Julia Slattery, for non-abatement of nuisances after notices did not issue a summons against Miss Sheridan, Bawnacarrigaun. Tho sanitary officer reported to me that he found nothing had been done to remove a nuisance at her well, npon a portion of her land, as to which he had previously reported.

In that complaint tho sanitary officer, on November 30, stated that cattle make use of the water in tho well at Killossera, and that the nuisance they left about tho well was injurious to tho peoplo using the water. As this report did not attach any responsibility to Miss Sheridan for the state of things complained of, the executive officer did not call upon her to cause abatement of nuisance, and he considers, before taking legal proceedings, it would be well to ascertain how far she can be held responsible. Justices order was obtained at last petty sessions for abatement of nuisance and payment of costs in cases wnore proceedings were taken under the Sanitary Acts, with ono exception, where it was ordered that tho nni. Banco bo abated by the sanitary authority, the bench taking into consideration the exceptionally poor circum. stances of defendant, who is a blind man confined to hi.

bed, and for part of two years in receipt of out-door react, from statements made by several of the defendants during the hearineof the cases, the execntiva officer thinks it would be well to call npon the sanitary officer for a report as to tho fitness of their houses for human habitations, or whether the nuisances complained of are not in a great measure attributable to defoctiva construction, under which case the landlord can be brought within the operation of the Act. Many of the houses are admittedly miserable dwellings, and where rent is scrupulously exacted, the landlord should be compelled to make them fit to live in, or otherwise be deprived of his rent by having the houses shut up. It may bo well to observe that no matter even how miserable the dwelling, there aro many cases in which the poor occupiers are unwilling to leave." It was ordered that the sub-sanitary officer employ two men to nme-wasn tne nouses at Ballinagoul, which aro a wreccnea condition, iho board then rose. TOWN COMMISSIONERS Mondat. Williams Gibbons.

That the pump at Bunrerv requires a few repairs, being out of order some time, and the inhabitants of the district much in want of water. Mr. Williams As the inhabitants are much want of a supply of water, it would be well to invite tenders from parties to do the required work, same to oe considered at next meeting.

Approved of. Absconded Rate Collector. Mr. Thomas Tobin (Shandon) late Borough Rate Collector, made his exit last week for America, leaving his sureties responsible. There can be no blame attached to the Commissioners, as tboy have upon repeated occasions urged on the collector to make weekly lodgments of the rates so collected, llo promised to do so, but neglected to fulfil those promisee.

His sureties were before the Commissioners this day, but they could do nothing, as the matter was in the hands of their solicitor. Mr. Wall suggested the desirability of passing a resolution with the view of havinir Mr. Smyth (present collector), make weekly lodgments of tno rates collected.

A deputation from the retired and discharged members of tho Royal Irish Constabulary were fa voured with an audience by his Grace the Duke of Abercorn during the hitsnndtide recess, but tho result was not of a very satisfactory character. The grievance they desire to be reliived from is greater in degree, out similar in kinn to that under which the retired members of the Force now residing in tho three counties ot Westmeath, Galwey, and Roscommon suffer. Tho rate of superannuation gran ted to the members cf the Constabulary Force np to the 1st of July, 1871, ia altogether inadequate to meet tno ouni.iuu 01 iu present time, when all the necessaries of life are doubled in price. The officers and men who retired after the 1st Jnly, 1874, receive a pension in proportion to the increased pay which bad been oonceled to them. Those who were discharged, or who retired prior to that date, do not even receive pensions npon the full proportion of toe miseraoiy pay tney were In receipt of.

The difference between the cases will be understood from a single instance. The first Head-Constable who retired prior to July, 1874, received but 60 per auuuui pension; tuoy woo retire since that date are awarded 91. The senior officers and men bore tho burden and heat of the day. They stood firm in the trying scenes of Castlepollard, Carrig. shock, and in the troubles or 1848 and 18G6.

There an some of the men who served so loyally then, endeavouring to support exi tenoe upon pensions of 15 and 16 per annum.

Armstrong, merchant, for having empty carta on the Quay obstructing the public. Mr.

D. F. Slattcry, solicitor, lor tbo defence, asked tbo implainant if any ono had to pass whoro the carts were would they cause an obstruction Sun constable Ihcy would. Mr. Armstrong Your worships, what would peoplo want to pass where tho carts were, when there is snllicient space between tho carts and tho quay Somo timo ago I was cautioned by tho constabulary to have there carts removed.

I am now glad to have tho matter brought before the court with tho view of having tho question finally settled. My men and horses go every morning to tho mills for flour, and return about ton clock tho carts are then unloaded into the store, tho horses aro put into stable and fed, and, of course, tho carts aro empty until prepared to leave for the mills again, when thoy return at two o'clock or so. Some months ago, when threatened to bo summoned for causing publio obstruction, I brought the wholo body of commissioners to see tho alleged offouco, and they could find no cause for complaint, as there was sufficient room between where the empty carts wore and the edge of the quay for cars to pass, and my cars are always kept within the water course, which is my private property in fact, it appears to me, they want to drive men of busiuess out of town. Bench No, no the law requires thnt the thorough faros shall be kept free from any obstruction whatever. Sub-coustable My chargo is for having tho empty carts on the quay.

Mr. Armstrong Yea, outsido my own store, waiting for the horses to bo yoked. Such a courso bas not been carried out in Dublin, Cork, and Watcrford, or any other town where merchants are, when thore is sufficient spaco left fot the publio to pass and repass. Mr. Fitzgerald was of opinion that thcro was no publio obstruction caused by Mr.

Armstrong's carts, as there was sufficient space between them and tho qnny. Mr. Redmond I am for dismissing the case. Mr. Armstrong: Your worships, yon will find that merchants are not dealt with in such a manner in the towns I have named, while they keep tho publio thorough faro free from obstruction.

Mr. Fitzgerald I cau see no obstruction in the way. Thcro mnst bo timo allowed for load ing and unloading. Dismissed. Mr.

McDcrmott remarked that tho matter was brought under the notico of tho constabulary somo timo ago, and they only did uicir outy to put sncn cases bcloro the court. Mr. Armstrong The constabulary have dono nothing but their dnty, without favor to any party. Other Cases. Mr.

Previous to the openine of the court busiuess, tbo.chairman asked the sub-sanitary officer had bo any sanitary cases for hearing The officer replied that there were a few parties summoned for not removing nuisances which were complained of, althongh being served with due notice to that effect. bir Nugent characterised the filling np of cess-pools with sea-tand as a mere burlesque, whilst putting the ratepayers to additional expense.

His worship said that when sea-sand is thrown into these cess.nools the liquid mannre and house nuisance flow into it, and in tne course 01 some time is entire taken u. the result being that the same cause of complaint arises. The sub-sanitary officer remarked that it was the opinion of tho sanitary officers that sea-sand was best, and in the event of parties havimr them re opened, and contents taken away as manure, they could be summoned and punished. Tho worthv baronet differed in opinion with tho sanitary officer. as he considered those cess-pools should be perman- eutiy uneu op wun stones ana earth.

Sub-sanitary officer: Yes, but what I complain of is the nuisance on the side of the road. Mr. Power You did not tell me to have it removed! Officer: That is not my duty; I am to examine the place, and report to the sanitary authorities that a nuisance exists there. The bench said they were much surprised that the sanitary authorities took no action from November to uay last to have the nuisances removed.

The executive officer explained the cause, and read the reports of the sanitary officer to 1 1 1 1 mo uuaiu 01 guaruians in reierence to these nuisances. air. ueamond: 1 here is no case before the conrt en. nbling as to abate the nuisance on the side of the road nowever, it would be well on the part of Mr. Power to remove tho cause of complaint.

Mr. Power promised to do so. Dismissed without costs. Julia Slettery, Spring, having a nuisance at her residence, and not removing it in conformity with the Act. Denis F.

Slattery, solicitor, remarked that he did not rise to oppose the charge, but to point out that tho summons was iniormai, ana that Julia Slattery did not reside at the Spring. At tho seme time she was prepared to remoyo tho cause of complaint, and on mat undertaking tne chargo was dismissed, without costs. John Curran, having a stoznant nool at his residence at Killosera, same being considered by the sanitary ouicer injurious to tno health ol tho inmates of the house, and not removed. From some observations made by defendant in reference to the cause of complaint, the sanitary officer said ho seemed indignant with him, as being under the impression that be was the prosecutor in such cases, which was not the fact, lie had only to report to the sanitary au tborities where nuisancos exist, and nothing further. Mr.

Dower remarked that he was well paid for the duties he had to discbarge. The sanitary officer re plied that he paid more to his servant mau than what ho received from the sanitary board, and consideied it a most arbitrary course of proceeding on the part of the Government to impose such duties on the medical profession through Ireland, the remuneration for which, be was quite certain, they did not in the slightest degree appreciate. Jeremiah Guirv. Kil losera, was also summoned for having a quantity of manure strewn over uis yara. uases the ground that the sanitary authorities remained too long without taking action.

On Saturday morning, between ten and eleven o'clock, row broke ont on board thcNorwegian barque 'i Ar, lying above tho House, between some quay porters, and the crew of tho vessel, which threatened for a timo to assume serious consequences. It appeared that a number of porters wero engaged discharging corn from a Russian vessel lying outsido trie that they had to do so over tho latter, In the courso of the morning Captain Tolvensen asked tho baggers to stop a fow minutes until be would have the ttige raise 1 they were using, and pat a piece of timber under it to prevent the mainrail of nia vessel being broken. 1 he porters refused until tney wouia put out tnoir tally tho captain insisted i thi others persisted, and words spoedily came to blows. At this juncture. Head Constable O'Brien was passing, and rushing over he arrested a porter, named James Uennett, whom ho found very prominent on that side, clutching tho captain by the tnroat, ana thnmping him in the lace.

The captain son, who is his mate, and whose fnco was much worse marked than that of his father, corrobo rated this statement. and Hirer Watchman Nolan, who was presont ut tho row, deiiosed that tho parties were very excitol by wrangling at all si he saw the mato strike one of porters in tho first instance, while ho heard many of the latter cry out to tnrow me captain into the river, r.d.rard Mulallv deposed ho was wnrkillir On tho Corn vessel when the mato struck him becauso they would not stop dis. ouurging that was tho hrst blow, uud the beginning of tho row. Seieral of tho porters called out thev uesireii to giro evidence but tho bench dcclareii they had heard quite enough of what seemed to hate been a very ilisgracelul row. Both sides had acte wrongly, but as the mate seemed to ham commenced the riot, by striking first.the b-iich would dismiss tho a caution to tl porters not break tho law again.
