As AN INDICATION of a possible turn in the tide of political affairs—a possible recasting of parties at no very •distant day —we notice the fact .that The Labor Reform Executive Committee of New Hampshire have issued a call for a political State Convention, to which they invite citizens, irrespective of party, to send •delegates. A platform is to be adopted .and a State ticket nominated. How labor .is to be benefitted by politics, the New Hampshire committee fail to explain, but from the tenor of their call, it is evident that the Granite State has citizens anxious to hold office. For the time-being these persons are willing to fight under the flag of labor reform, but how the condition of the laboring classes is to be bettered by their elevation to power we cannot conccivc. They will be unable to provide fat offices for all the workingmen of New Hampshire, and once in public positi^is themselves, they will hardly set examples of industry and fru gality, the practice of both of which virtues are much needed in labor reforms, much more than platforms and State tickets.-

Our Divorce Laws.

®REV.

DOCTOR LILENTHAL,

On the 20tli Gov.

the eminent

Jewish Rabi, of Cincinnati, addressed a note to Gov. BAKER,

on the 14th of De

cember, suggesting to him that the divorce laws of this State are obnoxious and injurious to the marital relations of all the States, and asking the Governor to recommend a reform in this matter.

BAKER

Rev.

replied to the

LILENTHAL,

and as the subject is

one of very general interest at this time we quote the most important portion of V** the Governor's letter: "I concur fully in your view as to the necessity of a reformation of our laws governing the subject of divorce, and shall in the future, as I have in the past, labor ', to accomplish that end. "Before Gov. Morton's election to the

United States Senate, and while I was presiding over the State Senate, I preparv1--' ed a bill making the most radical changes in our divorce law, and in the conduct of proceedings to obtain divorces "This bill was introduced, and passed the Senate, but did not pass the House. "At the last session I weuld have introduced the subject in my message to the

Legislature, but for two considerations, vis "1. The message was longer than I desired it to be, without introducing this topic. "2. I hoped to be able to get the matter introduced and carried, without discussing it in the message. •_ "1 shall not hesitate at the meeting of the Legislature, if my life is spared, to .commend this much needed reform to the ^attention of the General Assembly. "You speak of your conference at Philadelphia, adapting the Jewish divorce iv laws to those of this country. Will you be so kind as to inform me what are the regulations of the Jewish divorce laws, as modifiecf by your conference? In otner words, what do the orthodox Jews in this

country recognize as valid causes for the decreeing of divorces? .,"1 have the honor to b«,

BAKEE."

Tbe public will look -with interest for DB.JLILENTHAL'S

Jreply for—AS a cotem-

^porary' justly remarks—"the time has come for reconsidering the family rela.•'*'tion, for the adoption of such legal measures and rfuch moral regulations' as will serve to stay the progress of jmarchy in the homestead. There is a crying necesaity for a thorough reform of the inarriage relation, both in the laws of thfe land in the morals of the^peogle." vt

PANIC AT

SEX.

Scrriblc St'cne on Board a British Steamer—A Courageous Engineer.

Kingston (Jamaica) Cor., N. Y. World.] A sad accident has happened to the British steamer Twinkling Star, late American steamer Estrella, which left this port on the 20th ult. .for Cape Haiti, with a valuable cargo on board. At about 9 o'clock on Saturday, the 27th ult., when about fifty miles from St. Nicholas Mole, and about 9 o'clock at night, the engineers discovered that the iron plates about midships, atad in front of the paddle wheels, had been strained, from the heavy seas through which she was passing, and that large volumes of water were coming into the hold of the vessel, through cracks on either side, below the water-mprk. Some of the passengers on board were advised of this, and gradimHy the passengers and crew were overtaken by a panic, when there was a rush to the" lifeboat, which was speedily lowered, and into it escaped the United States Consul of this port, Mr. Aaron Gregg, and several others. 'But the lowering of this boat was so badly managed, in the effort of every cne to save himself, that the bow tf the boat was elevated out "of the water, while the sterti was submerged in the foam which left the paddle wheels, but they managed at last to cut the rope, and so disentangled them from the steamer. No sooner had the lifeboat parted from the ship than a panic overtook the firemen and others who were left oil board, and the scene when the firemen forsook the furnaces, the, wHthen the engines, the stewards the kitchens, and the captain teck feavc of his senses, was perfectly hellish. The panic-stricken crow, seeing that the lifeboat had left them, believed that the ship was about ready to part and ready to founder, and just at this critical moment Mr. Thomas Lewis, the second engineer, and the only American citizen on board, seeing every post deserted and all hands Hying in the jaws of death, rushed upon the deck, ahd with a voice of thunder attd thrilling earnestness, addressed hitaself to them in thiswise: "Hallo there! where are you, who call yourselves Englishmen? who fly from your stations when there is a ^little of danger, and call yourselves men, and Englishmen? Come back here to your places—1 am not afraid! I'll stake mv life, and back all I have, that I will take this vessel into port with safety— if you but do your duty." Then turning to the captain, he said: "You, captain, you've lest vour head, and allowed these cowardly fellows, these lazy land-lubbers, who call themselves English, to take your senses from you. Go up to your place, on the hurricane deck, and order the wheel* man back to his place." (Turning again to the firemen, who stood with their bags ready to quit the ship), "Go back to your vlaces, and do your duty, and if we

die, let us die like brave men, and not as cowards. I am but a young man yet, and do you think I am going unnecessarily to risk my life? And 1 have a young wife and a little family in Jamaica,"and do you think I am going to leave them to want? Not a bit of it. I n^gpn to go back there, and not to run away in a little emergency like this." Then addressing Mr. Nathan, a solicitor, who was buckling on a life belt, said: "Take that off, sir not the slightest necessity for any nonsense of that kind. You stand by me, and everything will go well." And" that little American citizen, Mr. Lewis, so inspired confidence

into the whole panic-stricken crew, that they resumed their places, and carried the steamer successfully into the harbor of St. Nicholas Mole, and 1 am informed by Mr. Nathan, a passenger on board, that had it not been for the courage and presence of mind of this second engineer, the steamer must have foundered, and all hands been losf, whereas the steamer was safely conducted into one of the best harbors in the world, without her cargo having been damaged to the extent of a single shilling.

Political Affairs in Indiana* From the Madisftn Courier.] a.: The Republican party in thi« State ha v. ing determined to hold their State Con* vention in the latter pat of February, delegate meetings will soon tfe held in all the counties, to choose choose representatives in that Convention. There arc some objections to the method usual in selecting delegates, for the reason that the few active aspirants for power, and the retainers and promoters of their political fortunes, are about the only persons who participate in delegate elections or appointments, the selections being made by a few personally interested. The voters have not heretofore fully appreciated the importance of participating in tne primary meetings, or if they do, are unwilling to trouble themselves ahant them—believing that their duly is fmY performed when they vote on the day of the general election. Everybody sees the evil to which the non-attendance of the voters at the primary meetings leads, but those only who have the power of correction cannot be brought to perform the duty.

The lesson of the last gefieral election should teach Republicans the importance ot a strong, and at the same time an acceptable State ticket. This is a necessity —it is demanded not only by the public good, but by tbe manifest temper of a considerable body of voters, as exhibited in the combination of Republicans and Democrats in Cincinnati, Chicago and other cities and localities, win? art determined that they will Rot

drill arty Idftger. It may be set down as a certainty, almost, that in all cases where unfit, or otherwise improper nominations are made, that such candidate will be extensively "cut" at the elections within the lines of the party, if conditions with the opposition are not made to defeat them.— In this county, in 1868, an improper nomination was made for Clerk of the Court the result: the defeat of the candidate and a loss of several hundred, of thle usual Republican majority. The Republican organization is not so homogeneous, or subjected so completely to party discipline, as it was during the war hence there is less fealty, and the charm, or power, then was in the old party ties—to bind to common action the diverse interests and wills of tens of thousands of voters cannot now be depended upon to carry through successfully objectionable nominations. Every decent citizen recognizes his right fdTO represented by a man of^s'gdffA cli&raeter as himself, lie k&ews that unless honesty, capacity and experience distinguish the candidates for State offices, he cannot expect wisdom or purity in the public administration. If he sees trickery and management on the part of the party hacks to foist their favorites upon the people, he will take the opportunity to indulge, at least, the natural sentiment of disgust at such nominations, without being in the least influenced or restrained by the weakened party ties. Hence, Candidates who only rely upon assumed party duty to carry them through are in more danger than ever of being left behind.

An earnest effort should be made to impress upon the convention the necessity of making none but good nomimations. The wiles of the artful managers, the "shrieks of jQcaiititeS," assumed claims ©f iiV^Tviauals or their grievances', foust be ignored and disregarded. The convention can have no reasonable expectation of adding materially to its party strength unless it acts upon the principle of placing no man in nomination unless he is a man of merit, for his character, his past service, his ability, his competency, and his kViown integrity.

The duty Republican voters is p:.J tent- atfetid the primary meeting of your party see that men capable and willing are chosen to represent you in this convention. The office should not be one of mere courtesy choose only such as you know will attend the convention and represent your fairly therein. The beginning of- success in the cahvAss ft£it year will be in the primary in'e'etftigs of the party errors fjfe'dc IVi the choice of delegated will b'e irreparable, and the evils which may arise from not being fully and impartially represented, may prove disastrous to county tickets, as well as injurious to the State ticket.
