DEADWOOD, S. D., Feb. 19.--The Blaine divorce case was called at 10 o'clock this morning. The morning was taken up in the reading of three depositions of Gen. Martin McMahon, Dr. Frazer T. Fuller and Dr. Winkoop. Gen. McMahon rehearsed the familiar story of the engagement of Miss Nevins to young Blaine, the opposing of the family, the hasty marriage, and finally the desertion of his wife by young Blaine. Dr. Fuller testified how he had called twice and written once to the elder Blaine to see what could be done toward effecting a reconciliation. He had not been received and the letter brought no answer.
