A Deplorable Case. In the Circuit Court, ypcterdar, a jury adjudged Jtfips Emma Goree to be of unsound mind, and Incapable of managing her own affairs. Miss Goree’s case is a peculiarly sad one. During her residence in this city, which ceased about four years ago, she was well known and highly rejected. Bbe was at that time a member of the Christian Church, but becoming infatuated with Catholicism, a belief with which her parents had been identified, she joined that church, and shortly afterwards became a nun, at St. Mary's, near Terre Haute. Recently, however, she has been an instructor at St. John’s Academy, in this eltv, but is now under treatment at St. Louis. Insanity is hereditary in her family, and it is feared that her mind is permanently impair?d, a fact that her friends will greatly regret. Miss Qoree was a young lady of unusual Intelligence tmd brightness, and possessed of striking literary attainments. _ Minor Coart Notes. Before acting Judge Horace Speed, in room No. 3, Superior Court, yesterday, John Flora got a verdict for $420 against John P. Myers and others, on a patent-right transaction in which the plaintiff alleged that he was swindled in the purchase of certain territory. The suit of Adrienue Bouvy against her stepfather, John B. Mazelin, is on trial in Judge Walker’s court. The action is brought to recover $450. which the plaintiff claims is'due her for caring for her mother, the wife of the defendant, but who lived apart from him up to the time of her death. Mazeliu is reputed to be possessed of cousiderable property. Damages Against Manager Gilmore. In Judge Taylor's court, yesterday, tbejury in the case of John Kidd, administrator of the istate of the late Melville Havens, brought in a verdict of $1,500 damages against Charles T. Gilmore, proprietor of the Zoo Theater. Havens was a police officer, and while at the Zoo one night fell down a stairway, sustaining injuries from which he died. Butt was brought, with the result Indicated, to recover damages, it being alleged that the stairway was inadequately protected. In the Criminal Court.

McCurdy were convicted of hog stealing end sentenced to SIOO fine and thirty days 12 j? il - Charles Bnyder, against whom a similar charge was pr©i6rr?d ; said that he did not do it, but would rather take a two years* sentence than stand trial, but the court deolined to receive such a plea, and set his case down for trial on Friday. The Bony-fuelling pase. J. M. Loper, a student at the Eclectic Medical College, on South Meridian street, who is charged with having been Instrumental in the removal of the body of Samuel Bristow from tbo grave, several weeks ago, was brought up for trial yesterday, but the case was continued until Friday.

BREACH OP PROMISE. Miss McPheeters’B Demand for Satisfaction from Ulysses Dlacksom. Quite a large number of persons were attracted to tlie federal court-rooiu, yesterday, by the trial of the breach of promise suit of Heleu McPheeters against Ulysses S. Blacksom. The testiinouy of the plain tiff was concluded duriug the morning. She made what the lawyers call “a good witness.” Her statement of her relations with Blacksom was straightforward, and the story of their courtship was somewhat entertaining. Letters which had been received from the defendant were produced in evideuee, aud while they failed to furnish positive proof that an engagement had existed, they were of a rather affectionate nature, and showed that the two were something more than mere friends. It was claimed by the plaintiff that iu several of his letters to her Blacksom had addressed her as his “darling wife,” and, questioned regarding her form of address to him, she stated she had called him her “dear husband,” “darling bov,” etc. Miss Blacksom, a cousin of the defendant, whose home is in York county, Illitioi, where the parties to the suit first met, testified that she. read several of the letters of Blacksom to Miss Moßheeters, in which the approaching marriage of the two was mentioned. It waft claimed that these letters were destroyed iy Blacksom when he afterward visited Miss MoPheeters at Marshall, 111. The father of the plaintiff was examined and he testified that Blacksom had once said, in speaking to him ab out his daughter,that “she was just the right age to take into his family to care for his children.” In the afternoon tne examination of witnesses fort he defense began, and the rest of the day was occupied in reading written testimony, bearing in the main upon the character of the plaintiff and those with whom she had associated, The examination of witnesses will probably not conclu te before this afternoon. Senator Voorhees will make the clo6iug argument for the plaintiff. Professor Collett’s Less. Three weeks ago a deaf mute giving his name as W. R. Taggart, and claiming to be from Dayton, 0., called on Dr. John Collett, the State Geologist. A conversation was conducted through the medium of pencil and paper, in which the mute manifested a familiarity with geology and claimed an acquaintance with several very eminent scientists. He represeu ted that he was en route to Texas, to make some scientific researches under instruotions from the government. aud Dr. Collett, becoming favorably impressed with his visitor, gave hnu something more than customary attention. In looking through the library of the State Geologist the mute became very much interested in Schimper’s “Palfeontolosrie Vegetale.” an atlas with luO illustrations of the coal measure plants, and a volume entitled “Cretaceous and Periman Flora of the Territories.” He was granted permission to take the books to his hotel, with the understanding that they would be returned the following morning. The fellow has not been heard from since, and it has been learned that no such person is known at Dayton. The two books were valued at $75. It is also reported that Taggart visited a number of physicians in the city and obtained subscriptions from them for medical journals. It is believed that lie is no mute, but is an accomplished swindler.
