The gentleman from Burt went on to sny that the gentle man from Ilarnin had dodecd voting nn im portant measure , and had bartered and traded-with nearly every other senator in order to got votes for his private scheme. The attack was wholly unexpected , and coming from so nnlct a member as Suther land was uonbly surprising. The bill passed the committee of the whole with the aid of several complimentary votes , On the adoption of the report Mr. Sutherland de manded an aye and nay vote.

Ho has sovor.il times objected to concurrence in house amendments by viva voce vote , or by a voo lass than that pro scribed by the constitution for the passage of the body of tlio bill. Ho has raised the point that such a record would not stand the test If questioned in the courts.

Bennett for $10,000 dara'a'fres for breach of promise was called'for trial in the circuit court , Boooklyn' , this afternoon , says a Now York dispatch to the Chicago Times. The plaliitlff-vlsji jviclow and is GO years old and the ajj/ppdUhtfiisli wjtlowe.r , GO years old ? His "wife died in "February a year ago. In her complaint the plain tiff says she has boon acquainted with defendant many.years , that'since the death of his wife ho has paid her marked attention , visiting her at her residencd * in this city and elsewhere , and in conversations and letters has asked and urged her to marry him. In 'May last at his solicitation ssho prom ised to marry him'and it was agreed that they slfould bo married as soon as she could arrange her alTnirs and secure a suitable wedding outfit. The outfit was duly obtained , according to tlio complaint , but the defendant failed to fulfill his promise. Although the fact does not appear in the complaint the doctor hna married again. The widow is represented by Lawyer Ilowe. Dr. Bennett in his answer avers that the plaintiff and ho entered into an agreement that they should marry in such manner as to avoid strife ainl anger and dispute between them. They could , however , not so agree , and strife" , anger and dispute took place between them during their courtship. In con- sequqnco thereof the agreement be came null and void. Tlio strife and anger anu aisputo were caused by the plaintiff , and ho urges it ns a defense , lie also declares that the plaintiff agreed with him tocancol their engage ment and , ( hat each bhould disohurgo the ether fi'oin all obligations under the agreement to marry. On these grounds ho a ks to bo dismissed. There are a number of letters in the case which will bo produced and which indicate a warmth of affection on tlio part of the elderly lever not altogether consistent with the idea of auurrcling and disagreon nts. Some are written on prescription blanks with lead pencil and some on note paper. The plaintiff is addressed as "Dear Sir in Lovo. " In the letter ho entreats that she will bo frank with him. Ho said : "Please write mo your thoughts. Lot it como freely and willingly. I know it will bo pure. Lot your mind have ita course without four and in the Lord.

Sail Ending of a Younji Hungarian's Honeymoon Tragic 1'asslon of a 'Prentice She Broke the Matrimonial Itccord , Litttln Romance' . Last Wednesday evening a young gentleman mid lady drove into Scotia , says the Herald ofthat city , in great haste. The | horse was put up at a livery - ory stable , the couple took supper at a hotel , and then sallied forth , with I-uiust-and-will-got-marriod looks on their young faces , in search of a parson. They were directed to Ilov. Campbell , and when they found him the swain drew a marriage license on the preacher issued by Judge Luvorty of Valley county. Mr. Campbell had his doubts as to whether ho could legally tie the knot on the papers , and to make assur ance doubly sure , it was finally resolved to go over the border and do the job in Valley. Rigs were obtained , and the candidates for matrimony , tbo reverend - erond gentleman and two witnesses were driven to a point in our sister county about throe miles from Scotia. The night' was as dark as ten thousand black cats , and the party carried no lantern. There , on the open prairie , in the darkness , with no other light than the bright and expectant eyes of the bride. Rev. Campbell said the words in tones that spoke to heaven through somber sky that made Ward Vanwio and Josie Tiinmorman one until death do them part. The darkest hour is that which ushers in the dawn , beautifully says the poet , and we hope that the say ing will prove true in this case. Dr. G. Dan ford Thomas , the coroner for Central Middlesex , hold an inquest at the Marylcbono coroner's court yes terday , says the London Globe , con cerning the death of William .Tames Pratt , aged eighteen , lately living at 105 Tachbrook street , Pimlico , who committed biiicido by hanging himself ttt 10 Mortimer street , Oxford street.

The police being called in , ho was out downj but on being examined by Ur. Woou life was found to bo extinct. On the deceased was found a letter , in which ho wrote as follows of a young woman with whom ho had boon keeping company : "Dear : I love you so much that I could not bear to live with out you. No ono knows how I love that girl.Vhat could 1 have not done for my darling' : " ' Ho finished uj ) the letter thus : ' 'The sloop of death is sweet to those whoso life is weary. . " Wurron B. Wostcott and Miss Jane P. Truman were married recently at Sar atoga. Forty years ago they were lov ers and engaged , but Mr. Wostcott jilted Miss Trueman and married a wealthy widow. To vindicate hor.-solf , Miss Truoman successfully prosecuted a breach of , promise suit against Mr- Wcstcott , but refused to accept the dam ages which were awarded hop. About three years ago Mr. Wostcott became a widower. The old love revived in the hearts of both and they decided to wed , ho nt the ago of seventy and she nearly sixty. A liceiiHO has boon issued out of the Orphan's court in Philadelohia , allow ing Wasyl Grynoznk to marry Anne Pccanowska , who boh lately arrived in this country from Austria. It was mild that the groom and bride uro member ; of wealthy families in the old country , and that they caino to this country be cause their aristocratic parents rigidly objected to their union. Each of the couple was said to have a situation in Philadelphia , and to bo working hard for a living. John Emmerich , a young man from Cleveland , O. , was walking with his bride of a week at Division and Mont gomery streets , Thursday night , Rays the Now York World , when ho Btag- gored and fell on the sidewalk , app ir on tly in a tit , Ho was taken to Ciouvor- nour hospital , whore ho soon diod.

The two Iqyora kept up a correspondence , and four years ago the girl albo came to America , working an a domestic ! uptown until a month ago , when John came to Now VJork for her. Tlioy were married Saturday t.n a church in Forayth street. They intended to leave for Cleveland last night , had purchased tickets and were making farewell calls upon rela tives when tlio husband loll dead.

Ono account says ho has gene permanently insane , The cheerful intelligence is sent out by wire from Toledo , says the Now York World , that Mrs. Losowa Soitz , aged flfty-four , has for the third time made Mr. Samuel Seit/ happy by be coming his wifo. Mrs. Soitz's matrimonial menial experience has been peculiar and exciting. While a maiden named Gnines she was wooed and won by Mr. William C. Queen. William jolted her young affections too severely on the corduroy road of life , and she secured a dlvorco and promptly married Mr. Samuel Soitz. This alliance not prov ing satisfactory she as promptly secured another divorce and married Mr. Jacob Mocker. Mr. Meeker became tiresome , and besides it was developed that his first wife died under circumstances which would seem to indicate that her tea had boon surreptitiously sweetened for her with a confection originally in tended for rats. So Mrs. Meokpr sought relief and divorce and again nfarriod Mr. Soitz. Content did not long brood likea snowy dove upon her soul. Within a fleeting month Soitz vs Seitz again decorated the court calendar , tuid Mrs. Seitz , on obtaining her freedom , forgave - gave Meeker both his fatiguing man ners and the rut-bano suspicion , and married him for the second timo. Alas for that evanescence known us human bliss , and for constancy which needs no ether bane than experience and time ! Jacob wearied her again , and again sought the blcssincrs of single life through divorce , only to give herself for the third if not last time to the eager and expectant Seitz , to whom her loyal affections wore transferred at the altar. The divorce business in Toledo is looking UD and Mrs. Seit'it may bo said , has broken the matrimonial record for all America. HE HAD ONLY ONE LUNG. Cut Colonel Lynch Was Able to Rrcatlio Through Ilia Kroiist. Colonel Frank Lynch , of Cleveland , who was shot through the breast at the battle of Atlanta , died recently , and an autopsy was held on his remains. At the time of his injury , in 1805 , the wound was supposed to bo mortal , but ho recovered from the shock and was brought homo , when it was found necessary to remove portions of three ribs that had boon broken by the ball and had become diseased. The opera tion was successfully performed , although the wound where the ribs had been removed never healed. A fistulur opening remained , from which were constantly discharged pus and mucus from the lung. Colonel Lynch possessed the ability to breathe through the passage after closing his mouth and nostrils. The wound required daily attention , although it did not cause Colonel Lynch acute suffering. It was a matter of considerable interest to as certain the condition of the right lung after death , and the examination showed that it hud been totally obliter ated with the exception of a small limb about the sl'/.o of two fingers. The right side of the chest was totally col lapsed. The loft lung , however , was found to be unusually developed , as is often the cii'-e where the ether is dis eased.

Oinnli < \ . The Omaha Cigar Manufacturers' associa tion Is now an assured fact , and as ono of Its rules is to employ only uuion labor , it Is meeting with the support of all labor organ izations. Its distinguishing label ia a. redone ono , and calls forborne patronage for'ahbmo- made article , as against the cheap Cuineso and iont-mado cigar. Ton foreign Rigors are smolred for ono of the homo-made-brand , , und if the Omaha clgarnmkora received the patronage they deserved , It would require TOO mcd instead of seventy to 1111 the bill. At present , the latter number is employed and turn out about four million cigars per annum at nn average of $10 per thousand , which moans an expenditure of 8-10,000 > per annum for wages. This amount is spent in Omaha , whllo not one cent of that forwarded to the Chinese joints of San Francisco , or the tenement houses of Now York ever finds Its way buck. By patronizing the home-made cigar , the amount or wages earned and cxpeudcd in Omaha would1 bo increased tenfold , and the association isonco more about to nsk the worldngmen of the city to use an article made by their follow- workmen only. The Cigar Manufacturers' association holds its annual mooting on the second Tuesday of each December , and in the meantime will moot nt the call of the onicers. 'S. Jorgcnson is president , S.
