 Achdsh L. Clark, ys. John Q. Mnrtiing.- This was an action on the case and brought by the plaintiff to recover damages sustained by her in Consequence of most scandalous and infamous report circulated by the defen- dant The plaintiff had worked for the de- fendant in his confectionery establishments had sustained an uni,npeachable character-- and some time last fall entered into mar riage engagement with an industrious and re. putablc young man of this city. The defen- dant, for the purpose of retaining her services, which were valuable, and for sume other sel- fish and damnabIe purpose, informed the young man to whom she was engaged, that she was destitute of chastiy-that he him. self had frequently had criminal intercourse with her-we do not state the wnlds as laid in the declaration-and after the poison had taken the effect intended, after the match was broken off, he then offered her superior wa ges, ~hich of course were promptly rejected, and this suit brought to test his veracity. The cause came on to trial at the late circuit be- fore Judge Vanderpool. An intense interest was excited in the community, in consequence of this outrageous violation of public senli- ment-this base attempt to ruin an innocent woman. Messrs. Hunt and Buel were conn- sel for the plaintiff, and Messrs. J. P. Cush- man and Stevens. for the defendant. The de- fendant placed his vianous charges on the record, and attempted to justify. He did jus tify, if his material witnesses testified to the truth-but their characters were SD notorious Iy infamous-all probability was 80 strongly against them, that the judge and the jury had no confidence in them. The Jury brought in verdict of s19OO, for the plaintiff.

 The charge ofthe judge was able, righteous. and accorded fully with the deep feelings of a crowded assrmblage. This is the first case in the history of jurisprudence, that we ever heard of, where a defendant came boldly in- to court, and deliberately attempted to prove himself guilty of course of conduct, which mus, fastcn upon his character stain so deep that neither the waters of the Niagara, nor the washing waves of time, can etface it.
