Winship, of New York, for divorce from his wife, Caroline XVinship, was heard recently before Judge Donohue. In relation to his marriage, Mr. Winship says that while he was in the navy, one Butler, his .shipmate*, a Philadelphian, went home and was married, and invited him to his house. He went there one Saturday, and the next day accompa­ nied them to Germantown and was introduced to the person from whom he was seeking a divorce. lie con­ tinues : I don’t know how it was, or any­ thing about our getting back to the hotel, but the next morning, Monday, when 1 awoke, I found the lady with me. She said she was my wife, that we wen* married the afternoon previ­ ous, and as a proof, she showed me her marriage certificate. I sprang out of the room at once, for I was only a “youngster,” and hastily started on for New York, and before daylight on Tuesday morning I was outside of Sandy Hook. It w as Butler who put up the job. After an absence of about two months 1 went back to Philadelphia and found my wife at the hotel. Whenever my duties permitted 1 visited her, and sometimes was absent for months. She had a child born about a year af­ ter our marriage. In the Spring of 1872 she went to Europe and return­ ed in the Fall, and again crossed the ocean in the Spring of 1873. I have not seen her since April, 1873, and don’t want to see her again. 1 went to Europe last Fall, and I suppose she must have heard it through the papers, for she left there before my arrival. She has the cus­ tody of the child, but I have made ap­ plication for the care of my daughter. 1 don’t know how we came to be mar­ ried before I’d known her two hours, and I have never-been able to find out whether her name was Bateman, or Beckman, or Bachman. P rotection for H omixtead S et ­ tlers .—A Washington dispatch of March 3d contains this: The Land Committee have been in­ formed that professional land specula­ tors have engaged many men to pro­ cure for them titles both on pine lands and agricultural lands, and that thou­ sands of acres are now held by them after such sham has been shown up by different proceedings. In a limited degree such abuses have grown up un­ der the present Homestead Law’. To correct these frauds, to protect those who want to make homes, to prevent frauds on the Government, to tiring under Improvement the public lands and to add to the wealth of the States and the Nation, is the only object of the present land bill. It repeals the pre-emption laws, except that it allows inchoate titles under them to be com­ pleted according to their provisions. It also substitutes for the present Homestead Law an entirely new one, retaining all of the best features of the existing law and adding others that the law seems to require. It does not interfere With the soldiers’ homestead features of the present law. It re­ quires actual settlement and cultiva­ tion for five years, after which, on due proof thereof, the settler can ob­ tain a title to 160 acres of land, the whole cost of which will be $10 on the entry of the land and $8 on the final proof. If, however, a settler wishes to obtain a title earlier than five years, he can do so at the end of eighteen months on payment of the price of the land. The committee have thought that eighteen months of settlement would make such an improvement as would keep the land under cultivation thereafter. The provision exempting pine lands was struck out lieforethe pas­ sage of the bill. It is the intention of the committee to report a special bill providing for the sale of timber lands.
