History of the vcl> ? rton Marriage Cai Ono of the most remarkable trials which 1 excited the interest of the civilized world in century was that now known as the "Yelve Trial," but which, at its commencement in 1 was entered upon tho records of tbo Dublin O of Common Pleas as "Thelwall ?a. Yelverton.' few years ago the casu waa not only a promit topic of public interest in Great Britain, but attracted sreat attention in thia country, wi popular sympathy for Mrs. Yelverton, tho plaintiff in the cajo, was fully as strong, tho uot so violently demonstrated, as in the tl Kingdoms. In the year 1860, tho Hon. William Charles verton, a Major of the Royal Artillery, was suer John Thelwall, of Hull, England, ostensibly the recovery of expenses incurred in maintain tho Major'f, wife, Mrs. Teresa Yelverton. The fondant denied the justice cf the account pres? ed, claiming that no apartments were rented his wife, no food, clothing, or other nocessa furnished her at plaintiff's expense, and no mo advanced to her by plaintiff, as set forth in the of charges. Ho also denied that Teresa Yelver was his wife. The examination developed the fe which we hero state as briefly as possiblo : Major Yelverton was tho heir apparem. to peerage of Avonmore, and his wife, Teresa Lo worth, was also of gentle .lood. During Crimean war she was one of u band of ladies fl accompanied the Sisters of Charity on their n sion of mercy to the army hospitals. For a lc time she ministered to tho wants of the sick a wounded. Amid the scenes of suffeiing and dei which surrounded her lifo whilo acting as a veli tory nurse, sho met Major Yolvorton, who asl her to become his wife. Sho assented. Ho i sired that tho marriage should be a secret o and performed by any priest whom ho could fli This she would not agree to. He urged it up her, but she was firm in her resolve. No indu mont could make her yield, as the idea of a seo: marriage was distasteful to her, and as she h determined never to bo married by any but priest of tho religion she professed. On her : turn to Scotland he used every argument to cc vince hor that a secret marriage was no breach morality, and that a Catholic priest could mai them in Scotland. Finding her fixed in t determination to take no step which shot: tend to injure her fame, ho propound to her the law of Scotland in regard the solemnization of marriage, and show her that in that country the services of priest wore not necessary-that mutual conse and promise in the presence of witnesses wou make them legally man and wife. He read aloi tho marriage ceremony from a Church or Englai Prayer Book, and proposed that then and thc thai they should declare themselves united in we lock without asking for clerical aid. Sho look* upon this proposition with horror, and without d lay hurried from Edinburgh to Wales. Eve: word of tho sen iee rang in her ears. He had to her that the mere reading of it in her bearii made her his wife, and she feared that bet wei her duty as a Roman Catholic and as a subject the Queen, living under the laws of tho Scotti; rc a i ni- having been married, however un willing] in accordance with law, and at the same time in manner not recognized as lawful by her church she was in a position of great danger. She kue not what course to take, but after serious tbongl she determined to obey the laws of the church, ar refused to consider herself a wife. This reft sal was met by Major Yelverton with the propos tiou that they should be united in secret by pnest of ber own faith, and having consente! thev wero married acoording to the laws of Ir< land at Killowen, in August, 1857. AU those facts were proved beyond the shado of a doubt, and a verdict was given in favor of th plaintiff, tho court thus declaring that, accordin to the laws of Scotland, Teresa Yelverton was tb lawful wife of the defendant in the case. In Jun? 1868, Major Yelveiton left his wife, and withi twenty-four h mrs married Mrs. Forbes, tho wide of Prof. Forbes, the celebrated botanist. The Ye verton case now becomes a curions one, as servin to develop? facts in regard to ihe marriage laws c Qreat Britain, tho inconsistency and injustice c which strike the intelligent poonle of other coun tries with something greater than mero astonish aient. The Irish Courts bad decided that Major and Mrs kelverton were legally married. The Fiscal-Gen aral of Scotland had tho Hon. Wm. Charles lei i-orton arraigned for bigamy. The Scottish Court [tedded that the marriage, as solemnized on Scot tish soil, was illegal. Major Yelverton then ap pealed to the same Court to have Teresa Lour worth "put to silence," a term and process whicl require explanation. Ihe form of action chosoi jy Major Yelvurton's advisors, from its antique barbarity, has nover been practiced, and scarcob >ver heard of, oven by astute lawyers. It is a relu >f the buried past -an obsolete thing; but, follow ug the usual course of British legislators, the aw-makers of modern times have mado new lawt without repealing old ones; and tho ancient sta ?uto cf "putting to silence" is still on the book tc ibo disgrace of a nation which has given birth tc ihe greatest jurists known to the world. This ie the statute which has kept M^. Yelverton in thc inomalous position of a wife not'married - a wo? man married, but without tin rights of a wife. Under this law she does not d ire to call hersch :he wifo of Major Yelverton. Should sho persist ii so doing,'the law gives him the right to take 1er property, and it also imposes a fine upon her. The following ia an extra ot from the prayer ad tressed (the ancient form) to the Sc. ttish Court ?y Major Yelverton: "ii* ? * tQat the said woman mav bo pal JO silence there anent, and be fined ?50 for every dine she shall persist in calling herself Mrs. Yel renou. ? * * lurthermore, that, as ho has suf? fered great pain and uneasiness from suob por listoney, sho may be fined ?1000 as solatium to ?B wounded feelings." As it is impossible to give in the columns of a saper anything liku a connected history of this :aso, it may be well to remark hero that the re? suscitation bf a forgotten statute has bad sn effect lot designed by the honorable Major. He has not 3U?ceedcd in putting his wife to silence, but has nost effectually silenced himsolf. It has driven aim into exile, forced him to change tho name irhich ho would not alk#w his wife to use, and has forever excluded him from the soviefcy pf respect? ive people who know him. Ho has been mobbed in Dublin, Edinburg and London, obliged to leavo ;he army, blackballed from his Club, burnt in ?ffigy, placarded in infamy, and published ineverv ;>aper in Europo and America as disreputable and x> war dry. The Yelverfon case has thus far resulted in no rood to anybody conoerned in it. It has rained Major Yelverton, and rendored his wifo poor, he lid? draining tho resources of many friends of loth. Since its iir-t appearance in a Dublin ?ourt it has employed tweuty-six judges, and two mildred lawyars. Ttt bas been tried eighteen ames, has consumed six vear?, and bf? cost about (350,000. On tho oilier hand it has boen the means of (pening the eyes of English statesmen to tho rrcat injustice of forcing statutes which should lave been repealed generations aro,. It has pro 'uke.l discussion in regard to these obsolete h wa, md "he repeal of the "Putting to Silence" act, rhic.i will soon bo effected, may be set down to ts credit. That other barbarous law called thc 'Penal or Catholic act" will "also bo erased. By his act thc marriage of a Protestant and a Cat no? ie is clashed as a crimo, and the parties are bea? rdy ftnoo their property is confiscated, and tboir carriage is rendered null and void. Tho caso has deo brought out a female orator-tho first and inly ono who has ever spoken before the House of [?ord-. On tho lagt trial, Mrs. Yelvorton pleaded 1er own cause in a speech which, heforo any body il intelligent men, governed by sensible laws, vould have gained for hor every right c?f which the had been dispossessed. The papera in the Yelverton case weigh about hrec tons, and would fill a good sized room. A verbatim report of the whole trial would fill doz 5119 of folio volumes, and moro than ono rcadablo )Ook could be made up from tho incidents of the hfforent trials. When the legality of the mar? riage waa deoided by tho Irish Court, there wero housands of poople surrounding thu Four-Courts. The building was crowded. Every available inch >f Hpace was occupied. The Hon. Major was cow? ling m an obscure corner, dreading tho entrance )f the jury. Whop tho verdict was rendered, luch a shout was raised aa Usn never been heard it a trial before or since. The wretched defend in! tried to escape through th > Judge's room, but [lis Honor closed tho door. He waa then taken ?brough the sky-light, out upon the roof, thence iver the roofs of neighboring buildings, and down nto the street, where he waa put into a carriage md hurried to tho docks. The miserable man was .hen placed ou hoard a vessel, und hurried to France. DIBECT XBADE.-Gen. H. C. Wayne, cf Brun ti? ri ck, Georgia, writes to a Floridian correspondent hat I. e has boen, since the war, engaged in the umber trade with Europe; that ho has sent, tho last two seasons, over fifty cargoes to the differ ;nt ports of Groat Britain and tho Continent; that lis vessels-British, Danish Xorweigian and owed sh-come home in ballast, and that, consequently, ie has been solicited by correspondents in England md France to open direct trade with the South, io expects this your to load thirtv vessels for iurope, and savs the answer he shall give bis Dreien friends dependa on the encouragement ho nav nope to receive, and that if it ia sufficient, ho viii open a house this fall af Savannah. Thc par? ies abroad, who have made the proposition for lirect trade with the South, are of high standing md poseas ah.ple mena of carrying out what they propose. The main feature of the enterprise, how Bver, says General Wayne, ''is tho facility with which immigrants from Europe may be introduced directly into the South -thc only way nf peopling the South with an industrious and respectable population hom abroad, lor we cannot in this re Hjioct coinph-tG witta thc West and New York."

CHARLESTON, S. C., Things in Washington. THO NEGRO TROUBLES IN THE SOUTHERN STATES - OENEKAL GRANT'S EQUIVOCAL POSITION-THE NE? GRO MILITIA ORGANIZATION IN THE DISTRICT APPREHENDED NEOR0 DIFl'ICULTIES IX RICHMOND. Tho Washington corrompo ident of tho Balti? more Gazotto writes under date of Novombor 10 : It seems to be conceded that so far as tho ten unrepresented States are concerned, tho threaten? ed negro insurrection cannot bo prevented by auv power which has been left tho Executive by tho in? famous Reconstruction Acts-that is, if 'thov are tobe execnted according to their terms. Ifearu that, ?hort of setting thom aside altogether, tho power of the President, in his opinion, is restrict- i ed to the removal of thc satraps, and that General i Grant feels only authorized to remove tho aubor- | dinatcs -not to direct their uction. Thus, thc / terrible emergency is left to bc met by men whoso conduct heretofore has shown unmistakable hos? tility to tho substantial people of the South, whose lives are threatened. It is much to bo feared that such men as Pope would be moro likely to fo? ment than allay negro aggiessions, therefore un? fit, if disposed, to prevent tho apprehended catas? tro phy. i ho position of Genoral Grant, in connection with the next Presidency, is becoming hourly moro disgraceful to himself and perplexing to tho Radicals. How could it have been known and stated "weeks ago," except upon authority, that a certain named set of petty politicians would, with his assent, in tho contingency of defeat in tho October and November elections, bring him for? ward without tho formality of a Convention, and proclaim his Radical proclivities ? Thia prediction has been verified. Yet undoubted facts aro now transpiring which show conclusively that he is affecting moderation, and authorizing denials of tho power of this jnnto to foreshadow Iiis views, or to commit him in any way. Nevertheless these mon are not at all estopped by sucli disclaimers, from persisting that they speak his real sen? timents and are privy to his intentions. I know very well that tho conversation between tho "General and tho Georgia edi? tor, as reported, was somewhat colored, and also that that between him and an cx Cabinct Minister as contained in a dispatch to tho Boston Post, was grossly caricatured, but I have unquestioned reasons to bo convinced that he did in botli of theso interviews declare that no one on earth had authority from him to declare his politi cal status or to announce his purposes respecting the Presidency I Yot ono of tho conspicuous indi? viduals who did assumo this authority, publicly and recently, will shortly bean inmate of his house, and now enjoys his unreserved confidence, and another is his Chiof of Stair and trusted confidant. 1 referred in a recent letter to tho game played in 1848, and intimated that it should not be permitted to bo again essayed with success. It has, withal, beon so far deviated from or. this occasion that, instead of a persistent avowal of neutrality, tho purposo seems, by double dealing, to gain a tem? porary advantage merely, and to draw tho public mind from thc lato disastrous defeats of tho Radi? cals. Then is not tho slightest doubt entertained by well informed mon here that eventually General Grant will bo willing to agree to any platform tho Radicals may prescribe. But therois an increas? ing impression that his devious courso lias dam? aged his prospects in that direction by lessening hui availability. If "Democrats," therefore, dis? agree aa to his status, it is tn he attributed to his uuiquo political tactics, and to tho necessities of tho Radicals ti substitute tho duplicity of tho politician for tho ingenuousness ot tho soldier-a role-I am sure the Gonoral has neither the ca? pacity nor the patienco to pursuo with success. Is your "neighbor of the American answered ? I learn that tho military forco boro has been largely increased. Tho negroes threaten resist anco in tho event of tho order of tho President for the suppression of their military organizations heine; carried iuto effect. In Richmond, I learn, an outbreak is imminent. A toleeram of yester? day's dato says : "An excited Republican meeting was held at tho headquarters of thc blacks last night, and a committee was appointed to wait on General Schofield to request him to order tho city election. Lewis Liudsov, a colored dologato elect to the Convention, made a speech. Alluding to the discharge of negroes for votm? the Radical ticket, he said ; 'Before any of his children should Buffer for food, the streets of Richmond should run knee deep in blood. Ho thanked God that the ?egroos had learned to uso the sword and gun.' All the efforts of tin; moro peaceful nogroos to stop these demonstrations wero wildly hooted down. The citizens here are apprehensive of trouble Wardwell uud other white Radicals left the meet? ing. Upon this dispatch, tho Chroniclo of this city virtually encourages the ncgrooB as follows: "Such expressions as ho (Lindsey) is alleged to ?lave used aro to be condemned, ont it cannot bo joncoaled that they aro a very natural result of tho proscriptive policy recently urged by the Rich nomi press. Wheii men becomo desperate througl langer, thov aro always a dangerous clement in :ho community-a fact of which wo have had an llustmtion within the past low days in several of :ho manu lae luring towns of England -and the people of Virginhi cannot expect to try tho expert aient of starving noarly half of their population into submission to the wishes of tho remainder ?rithout exposing themselves to fearful perils." The Negro in the Pennsylvania Courts. THE RIOHT OF PUBLIC CARRIERS TO 8RTARATK TAS SENGEBS, PROVIDED THERE IS NO DISCRIMINATION IN ACCOMMODATION. Tho case of a colorod woman who waH ousted ?rom her seat on tho West Chostcr Railroad in Pennsylvania, on account of her color, was talton ip on appeal, and has been dcoidud by the Stato Supremo Court. Judge Agnew delivered tho dcci lion of thc Court, wheh reverses thc decision of ;he lower Courts. The following aro the ni03t in? festing points which establish a principio of jeno rai i nj po rta ncc: It is admitted no one can bo excluded from car? riage by a public carrier on account of ?olor, roh: jious belief, political relations or prejudices. But tho defendants asked the Court to sav if tho seat trhich the plaintiff was directed to take WAS in all respects a comfortable, safe and convenient soat, aor interior in any respect to tho ono die was di? rected to leavo, sho could not xvuover. The case, therefore involvos no assertion of the inferiority of tho negro to the whito passenger. Tho simple luostion is, whether the public carrier may, io tho ixoroise of hjs private right of property, soparato passengers by ahv other well-defined characteris? tic than that of s*ox * * * ? * Tho right of tho carrier to separate the passen? gers is founded on two grounds-his right to pri rote property as a means of convoyanco ami tho public inte rest. Tho private means ho uses be? long wholly l.o himsolf, and imply the r'ght of con? trol for the protection of his own iutorist BH well is tho performance of his public duty. It is not tu unreasonable rogulutiou to seat pnsgougers so is to preserve order and decorum and prevont oon lactaud collision. If the grounds of regulation bo reasonable, courts of justice cannot intorforo with a cHirior-s rigjit of private property. Tho right of a passenger is only thai nf being carried safely and with a due regard to his comfort and loiivonicncc, which aro promoted by a sound and ffcll-rcguUtod separation of passengers. ? . a ? * * Who would maintain that either at an inn or on i vessel it is a reasonable regulation to compel tho passengers, black and white, to room or oed to? gether ? Jf a right of private property implies no right of control, who on all lioe-iuu a* contest be? tween passengers for scats aud berths? Why tho Creator made ono black and tho othor irhilo ir. known not, but the fact is apparent and ;ho races distinct. Conceding equality with na? tures as perfect, and rights us sacred, yet fjod has nade thom dissimilar, an 1 imparted to them foa :ures of character intended to imply that they shall iot overstep the natural boundaries He has assign? ed to them. Tho natural law which forbids their ntertnarriago and the social amalgamation which eada to a corruption of raoes is clearly divino. Tho separation ot* tho white and black races on the sur faco Of" the globe is a fact oquallr apparont. ? . ? " * * The right of each to bo free {rom sooial contact s as clear as their right to bo free from intermar? riage, * * therefore, wc do alare a right 11 maintain separate relations as far is is reasonably practicable, but in a jspirit of kind? ness and charity, with due regard lp equality and rights. From an opiuion delivered in 1837, by tho late Judge Gibson, i: appeals that tho Status bf the no irro never loll within Un term ' freemen," and that tho emancipation act of 1838 did not elevate him to a citizenship in the State. In 1H3?, the peoplo of the Commonwealth, by an express amendment of their Constitution, drow tho line directly i.i.t'veon tho white citizen and tho black inhabitants 'of tho Slaic lt is clear, therefore, that nuder its Constitution the while and black man stand in separate relations. Never lias there been u; intermixture of the two races, socially, politically, civilly Of religiously. Following theso grounds, wo aro compelled to declare that at the time of tho alleged injury there was that natural, legal and customary difference between tho black and tho white passengers in a public conveyance, the subject uf a sound regula? tion, to socare order, promote comfort and pre? serve the peace. The defendants wore, therefore, entitled to an affirmative answer to tho points re? cited in tho opinion. GOVERNMENT EXPENDITURES POU SOUTHERN HI LIEF.-The law of the last Congress to relievo the Buffering in tho South was signed hy the President on thc 30th ol last .March, and orders to cease operations thereunder were issued by the bureau on the 2Cth of August. Relief was therefore afford? ed to the people of tho South, without regard to color, race or sex, fora period ofabout live mouths. Tho greater part of the reports ol' tho agents are in. Tlio distribution of funds to various State? was in round ligures ns follows: Virginia, $12.350; North Carolina, $32,5?); South Carolina, #104,700; Georgia, $125,100: Alabama, 86,900; Florida, 1,000; Mississippi, $85,000; Louisiana, $21,100; Tennes? see, $10.000, and Arkansas, $12,000, making a total Of about $141,650. At lin'hist reports small por? tions of this money were yet on hand, but it is be? lieved that even dollar of it will bo required to set? tle tho outstanding bills. The various reports load to the conclusion that between seventy-five and eighty thousand different persons were relieved, Botno of whom were supported for weeks, ami others probably for months. Moro I han half these persons were whites. The supplies furnished were mainly corn and pork; the returns mado to thc bureau, with a moderate estimate for the few districts not yet in, give au aggrcato of about 850, 000 pound- of pork and 120,000 bushels of corn.

Several speocbes wore made, chiefly by blacks, who lucidly, as one of them said, "gavo tho charaoter.of tho situation of the condition." One of the speakers, ho wovor, brought down tho orowd, and at once tccured the nomina? tion to himself. Ho was a dirty, agod and notori? ous negro, Jim Brutus, by name, who basod bis claims on tho recital of tho groat amount of thiov ing, harboring thieves and runaways, and tho amount of punishment he received for rascality when a slave, added to tho promisa of farms to al) and the putting the whites, ar he Haid, into the Holl in which negroes had so long boen. This negro, with another namod Calvin, tbo right hand man of tho negro idol, Whitimore, were unani? mously nominated, amid a great and triumphant shoat.

A BLOOOY DOEL-DEATH OF TWO NOTORIOUS CUABAOTEBS. -One who took part in tho afliair jives the Titusvillo Herald tho following account sf the way in which society was rid of two despe? radoes of local colcbrity: Julesburg appears to havo becomo the resort of numerous "hard cases" from thc oil region, as ?roll as other sections of tho country, and among ;hom was tho notorious Tom Quirk, of Petroleum Centre. Ho escaped from tho Allcghany Peniten? tiary, and after reaching Julosburg and netting his itakes for bnsiucss, bo visited Chicago, and pro? cured eight jezebels, with whom ho returned to Tulesburg and established a concert saloon, or in >ther terms, a "Free and Easy." Among tho mem jors of this interesting household was a woman mown aa Margaret Snyder, who became attached ;o a Julesbnrg hotel keeper named Chanfrau, for nerly of Pitbole. Tho woman dosorted Quirk, or Jlark, as ho was thoro called, and wont over to .'hanfrau's. Quirk callod upon tho latter, and de? clared that he must cnvo her up or reimburse him Quirk) for having paid her faro from Chicago. This Clianfrau consented to do, but upon tho rol owing day, when Quirk demanded tho money shannan refused to pay. Quirk thon doctored hat he would light him for tho amount. Chanfrau oplied that Quirk was the better mau, and he vould only fight him with revolvers at fourteen laces (fifty-one feet.) Tho bargain was at once :loscd. A man named James Hayes formely ot Wost iickory, was selected as Quirk's second, and mother nainod McCarty from Salt Lako City, per ormcd the same sorvico for Onanfrau, whilo Tom )illon was elected reforc?. Tho partios imniodi .tely went to the ?uiburbs of tho town, where tho listanco was measured off. The principals then rent to their positions, and each was allowed to ako dehberato aim.

He is tho interpreter of a drama, and tho join full of ladies and gentlemen has no existence ) him. A book hes before him and ho turns over io leaves, but ho rarely looks at tho pages. Ho nows thom by hoart. At first it strikes you his oico is artificial. There is a theatrical tono in it hieb prepares vou for a disappointment; but in io case of nino lectures out of ton, this impros ion goes off, and tho laugh or tho tear defv tho trongest will. Mr. Dickens extremely dislikes, hilo reading, tho noiso of peoplo entering or laving, and printed slips are usually placed at tho oor begging that silonco may bo maintained /hat bo may do in the United States is not known, ut in England ho does not addi ess a syllable to io audience.
