He accused Mr McBride of drunkenness,

violent language, obscene ucts, and ad-

ultery, and said his client had struggled long against all this misconduct, for she thought of the child Torn of the unhappy

union.

Next, Counsel examined the points of the defence and road the pleadings put in on 18th July, in which Counsel for the de- fence argued that drunkenness was not ad- mitted as a ground for divorce in French law. He argued this point, and maintained that scandalous drunkenness as a ground for divorce. He stated that Mr. McBride
