The afternoon that Shugart died, I-had made arrangements to watch Mar tin and Mrs. Shugart that night, but af terwards discovered that Shugart had died, so I didn't watch. [The witness was here, proceeding to tell all he had seen, suspected or heard; when. he was interrupted by counsel.

He generally came in the afternoon. I knew Shugart had became apgry and ordered him away one Sunday evening. Mr. Shugart told me he was dissatisfied at Martin's coming. In 'the summer some time I heard her talking to Shugart about going to Ger many; Martin was present at the time; Shugart said she was too old a woman; - Martin said if there was nothing but the money wanting, he'd "fix that all right." Martin was talking of going to Germany. I made an arrangement with Leonard - -Witte to . Watch for iiartin. We heard of h im cOming at night, W watched two . nights, but didn't see him. e One evening 1 I came home late, and Mrs. Shugart was standing at the door, and asked me what I was looking for. I said nothing. I don't know whether she knew I was' I watching, but she.eccused me of doing so. It was after I had watched one night hefore Shugart's death; when she accus ed me. 1 She said, "I understand vinare *etching me, arid you needn't." I told her I wasn't "PUT SIR OUT OP-THE ROAD."

[The wit ness corroborated the evidence of other witnesses in relation to the times and frequency of Martin's visits.] I saw M i artin and mother Dide to gether several times. d notkitchen hear any conversation between them in regard to going away. One day I came in the gate, and was passing the kitchen door, when Martin and mother were in the kitchen. Just while passing I heard Martin say, "Yes, I'd put him out ofthe road;" but I don't know why he said it or what it meant; I wasn't going in the kitchen; ',wanted to get a drink at the pump by the kitchen door. The time was between four and five o'clock in the; afternoon.. It was about six or seven weeks before father died. Nobody else that I know of was in the kitchen. I, never recollect et hearing Martin say to mother she was ifitoo pretty a woman to have such an Ugly man." I don't mind of accusing mother of sitting up late with Martin and causing people to talk.

Mr. Thompson for the defense, objec ted to thie question. . 14r,'McCandlesis conteaded that it was proper, es showing the unfaithfulness of the wife. The Commonwealth proposed to prove that Shugart was absent in Cali fornia from ism. to 1854 and that the wife during that time had exhibited her want of affection and "constancy, for him by proving untrue. Mr. Thompson asked that the proposi tion be put in writing, that t ohe•o ••lefense might have au opportunity fobjecting to it in the visual manner. _ Mr. McCandless reduced - the offer to writing— It wee to the effect that the 'Commonwealth' propoisat to prove ,by this'and other witsessess that Shugart had' gone to Califtmaia in 1851 aid re turned in 1854; that in the meantime. in the summer of 1858, Mit. Shugart had ati illegitimate child, thus exhibiting her tHIODEOIIIOy and want of affection for him; that they also proposed to prove that Mrs. Shugart had never liked;her husband, but had been indnded to marry tdm at the solicitation of frielide. Mr. Mitchell then presented an objec tion to the offer, as not relevant to the question at issue, and the circumstanc es too far back to be brought in at the pres ent time. In support of his objection, he claimed that a blrenniatance hIPPeo tion toli gixticen.yeartii‘ nearly half a genera .before, could not be t aken into 0000lheder tiena0w; as it threw no light on t question at issue. It had nothing . to-do with and could not explain 8 oPrt's death or Mar,thi's Intimacy. It happened before Mar'An was about the Oeuntry. ' If the door.- was thus thrOwn open, there co'ald be no end tothe 'irrelevant lelilimealy-which might be produced. It had rat. connection with the present case, as ~"didn't prove anything bearing upon it.; The only effect such evidence would have would be to prejudice the minds of the jury against the prisoner by intro ducing circumstances, and outside cir cumstances, which, even if true, were al together foreign to the issue. Mr. Mitchell said the argument upon which the admission of the testimony Iwas based wan altogether wrong, and ' that it did away with , all locus renitentia [ in the case, which was a recognized pen ' ciple in law. Certainly in sixteen years, even if the alleged act had been commit- I ted, there had been time for repentance. ' Such was - the presumptlon of law, and he ,argued acoordingiy that the evidence I was inadmissible. Were itimmediately [ [ related to other surroundings in the case, . [ or of recent occurrent', then it [might be ' considered as a part e the rcs gestae, and mi i be receivable the ea as other testimo raY already presented-'to the Court - and jury. Bnt it was het,. in any sense, one of the surroundings, but an event pr act of long , ago, which decidedly,made it not I properly receivable. . Mr. McCandless said, in a case of this . Ikind, there were but three inquiries • [ proper to be asked. First, in relation to 1 the nature ofj offence; second, its I commission and the the offender; and, third, ' the 'motive. The Commonwealth for nearly two days had been attempting to show the inconstancy of the defendant and her alienation of affection from her husband; that she did not love him and desired to befreed of him. In doing this they had produced evidence show ' ing the fact of her intimacy with Martin. : I This certainly was proper nd ats [ cording to law. They ce a rtainly 'could not be prevented from ex ' hlbiting a • motive for the crime in thie manner. But now, having done this, ' and established the fact as regarded re cent events, they desired to go back still I further and give unmistakable evidence on this point. Was thia not a proper in quiry? - Had she a proper affection and "love him? If laer life was tracedback to another period of time it would shim the fact of a deliberate, settled alienation, if not hatred, for a psriod of perhaps more than. hall of ..their matrimonial lives. More positive evidence of her unfaithfulness was thus given, and was this not what had been shown in the testimony thus far in the two days' exam inations? Was it not merely a continuation of this evidence? -As she was faithless then, so she had been ever dace, an assertion which, if permitted, would be followed up with ,proper proof. It was - proper to show a motive . for the crime, and what stronger one could there,be than a want of affection or a positive hatred to her husband. ' It was hardly necessary, he thought, to refer to the authorities to show that acts of Jude screlipn are admissible, but if necessary they could be Prouced. Judge McGuilin 'said they would not be needed on that point. Theyhad been hearing that for two days. and the ques tion was settled. The proposition was a very.broad, one, and was not confined to the illegitimacy of the child, but also l raise the pant It e time, et ath wher whiela - theres tich' e wasi anvi y imit d , to dence' wets' competent. Be'asked Mc- Candless for bis authorities upon this point. • • ' '' '7. ' '' ' -' Mr. McCandless stated he had authori ties showing the admissibility of the evi dence; but had none, in which the limit of,time Was stated, as ,to how far ck an examiner might go to prove ac ts of inconstancy. The principle, hOwever, was welt choseh and jaid uown, that the facts could be shewn,,and it seemed no more than proper thavit - should be done at any time, and• no matter how long a time back the evidence extended. He Said, however, as it was within a very few minutes of the time for adjourn ment, if the Court would defer a decision untirThursday morning he would et amine into the matter more carefully. This suggestion was agreed., to and Court accordingly adjourned. _..._ • Success the Test of Merit. Success is the teat of merit in regard to Sewing Machirox 4 es well as enterprises of any kind.
