McNutt, Montgomery and Grubbs filed a motion for a re-hearing of the suit which granted a divorce to his wife. The motion is reduced to writing and sets forth the grounds upon which it is made. They are as follows: 1. That the defendant had no notice of the application of his wife for a divorce.
That the proof of publication of the
pending case was never tiled with the rec ords of the case. 3. That defendant will be able to show that Mrs. Calhoun, one of the plaintiffs witnesses, committted perjury.
The motion will be argued before the court to-morrow. Whether the late attorneys of Mrs. McFarland-Richardson, at the late trial, will defend her interests or not is not known.
The impression among the attorneys at Martinsville seems to be that the motion will be granted by the court. Should it be done, Mrs. McFarland-Richardson, Henry Ward Beecher, avd several other persons will be placed in rather an unpleasant position.
Woman's True Place.
If I do not at least say that whatever else may lure or demand- her, woman's true place, first and last, is her home, I shall be untrue to one standing great conviction. Women must make more of their homes and make them more to those who belong "within them. In this day of outward excitement and many other attractions, the old and sacred integrity of home is endangered. The homes of to-day are not as dear as those of a past generation. Great change has come over our people. Amusements multiply and press. Young people have taken out a license against their parents. Parents are getting rather afraid of their boys and girls. Home isn't the little nucleus radiating joy to each, each shedding back joy on it. It is a convenientplace to have, and the father is the banker, the mother is the mistress of laundry women and cooks, but the home is gone. It isonly a partof the outer world which you have roofed over and lighted afire in, which you may make dark by your frown or uncomfortable by your wliim. Once it was, what it must be again, the heart's holy of holies once no man would desecrate it by deserting it once all good impu'se sprung hence and all true character grew once the hearth at which the father and mother sat was holy and dear, and if the generations are to get back the old stability of character, and firmness of principle and the old undefiled religion, it must be through these homes, of which you. O woman! are priestesses. It must be by your garnishing them again with forgotten graces —re-awaking gone out fires, and sanctifying anew the only place in the World in which a human soul can be surely fitted for the work and warfare of life. Heaven lifelp us if this desecration of home gets into another generation.
Babies.
We love babies, and everybody who does love babies. No man has music in his soul who don't love babies. Babies were made to be loved, especially girt babies, when they grow up. A man isn't worth a shuck who lias't a baby, and the same rule applies to a woman. A baby is a spring day in winter, a hot-liouse in a ray of sunshine in frigid winter and if it is healthy, and goodnatured, and you are sure it's yours, it is a bushel of sunshine, no matter how cold the weather. A man cannot be a helpless case so long as he loves babies—one at a time. We love babies all over, no matter how dirty they are. Babies were born to be dirty. We love babies because they are babies, and because their mothers were lovable and lovely .women. Our love for babies is only bounded by the number of babies in the world. Wealways look for babies, we do witli anxiety and patermd affection we do, indeed we do. We always have sorrowful feelings for mothers that have no babies, and don't expect any, Women always look very down-hearted who have no- babies. and men who have no babies always gamble and drink whisky and stay out nights trying to get music ln®fhelr souls but they canjt .come it. Babies, are,babies and nothing can take their place. Pianos play out,. and good living plays out, unless tfcere's a baby the house. We've tried we know and we say there's nothing like a baby. Babies area productive substance and we intend to talk more about babies in the fu ture. We intend to teil our friends if they want to be happy in baby W house—their 9]sra19 preferable. Babies' stimulate" exerfion they make a young man scratch gravel and in this view of the case, they are all the while laying golden eggs. A man is hardly ever worth three red cents until he gets a wife and baby. They push him to it. While he is making enough for their support, he is sure to have. something' over. "t

Bed Cloud and the President have "Mncli Talk" Testcrday.
WASHINGTON, June 9.—Red Cloud and delegation had an interview with the President to-day, and in effect repeated the speech of Tuesday. The President replied that he had always and still desired to liv«s at peace with the Indian nations, and that so long as his official authority existed", It would be used for the protection of Indians on the reservations, and against the encroachments of whites, as well as for the protection of whites against the red men.
Fort Fetterman, he explained, was for the protection of both whites and Indi ans, and might be used as a base of supplies. The appropriations made by Congress for the benefit of the Indians would be expended consistently. What is right is to be done. The Secretary of the Interior had proper instructions with regard to this. The Indians leaned forward with eager attention while the interpreter explained to them the words of the President.
At the conclusion a silent hand shaking took place as each passed from the room, and the council with the Great Father

^remarked that there was
acutal danger that navigation would be be destroyed on the Ohio river by short span bridges. *.
Mr. Drake favored the resolution, believing the. interests of the whole Missis^ sippi Valley were involved in the legislation on the subject. He hoped the bill would receive the precedence to which it was entitled.
Mr. Cameroji urged the importance of the measure in the interest of the commerce on the river. He said that at Alleghany the people had' contributed, out of their own pocket, $30,000 to iiiduce the Baltimore and Ohio' Railroad to lengthen the span of their bridge.
Mr. Boreman said acomprdmise had been effected with, the Pennsylvania coal interests, which was pressing the bill, by which the span of bridgeis was determined that the proposition now was to tear down, not only bridges in proceas of completion, but
those
already completed, and
to return to the parties referred to by Mr. Cameron, the money they had contributed.

phaticallv all knowledge of the matter He called upon the chairman of the sub committee [Mr. Butler, of Mass.,] to state whether any evidence had been taken implicating him.
Mr. Butler was not present, The Speaker proceeded, as business for the morning hour, to call committees for reports, commencing with the Ways and Means. No report being made,
Mr. Ward called attention to a resolu tion adopted by the House last Monday directing the committee to report, as soon as practicable, a bill abolishing duty on coal.
Mr. Hooper, acting chairman of the committee, remarked that if the resolution had been simply such as stated the committee would have had no difficulty in reporting the bill immediately. The resolution instructed the committee to report a bill abolishing the tariff on coal so as to secure that important article of fuel to the people free of all taxation. The latter part was supposed by some members to go farther than simply admitting coal from abroad free of duty. One member had taken ground that all direct and indirect taxes are to be taken off from coal
Mr. Ward—The resolution was perhaps somewhat crude, but it seems very expli cit.
Mr. Cessna made a point of order that under the call nothing but reports froin committees were in order. ,T
The Speaker sustained him. The Committee on Banking and Currency reported a bill to punish the holders of unlawful crrtificates of checks by officers of national banks, which after a short discussion was passed. It provides that officers, clerk or agent of any bankassociation, who shall wilfully violate the provisions of the acts in reference to certifying checks by national banks, approved March 3, 1869, shall be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor, and on coviction thereof, to be fined not over $5,000 or be imprisoned for not more than five years, or both provided nothing in this act shall relieve any banking association from any penalties prescribed in the former.
Mr. Garfield also reported back Senate bill to provide a national currency of coin notes and equalize the distribution of circulating notes, with a substitute therefor. The substitute was read, being the nintyfive millions currency bill, with the funding and other sections struck out. The omitted sections are 3, 4, 5, 6,7, 8, 9 and 12.
Mr. Cox appealed, and called for the yeas and nays, adding that they would fillibuster on the bill every morning hour from now till the end of the session.
During roll call the morning hour expired, and bill went over till the morning hour on Tuesday.
The appeal from the decision of the chair having been withdrawn, Mr. Upson presented a petition from the citizens of Cleveland for the passage of a bill to incorporate the International Society, for the protection of immigration.
Mr. Davis, of New York, from the Judiciary Committee, reported the bill te establish a Uniform system of naturalization, and regulate proceedings under the same. The bill makes the following conditions of citizenship: Three years residence in the United States with the intention to become a citizen six months residence in the State and 30 days in the county or parish before application is made the application to be filed 20 days in court the proceedings for naturalization to be had before the United States Circuit and District Courts in counties or parishes where there are not over two stated terms of these courts, the proceedings may be had in any State court of general jurisdiction having a clerk and seal. The naturalized citizen is not to exercise all the privileges of citizenship till after, and six months from the date of judgment. Aliens enlisted in the United States army or navy and honorably discharged therefrom, may become citizens upon one years actual residence.
The bill consists of 17 sections, containtaining provisions for carrying it out and penalties for fraudulent actions under it. The bill was advocated by Davis, Ward and Stevenson, and opposed by Eldridge, Cox, Sargent, Fitch, Axtell, Conger, Finkelberg, McNeely, Hay and others, and finally tabled by a vote of 102 to 62.

Without action the House adjourned. Social £ife in China. In China man and wife never walk together arm-in-arm in public, or even side by side, but the wife always follows her lord at a respectful distance, as the women always do among the North American Indians. At social parties the sexes sit at different tables, occupying separate rooms, and visiting only among themselves. Strangers of opposite sexes are never introduced, nor do the women ever speak of the men, unless relatives or intimate associates of the family. There is no such thing as social life, in our sense of the word, among the Chinese, and all their social and domestic theories and
{nferiority
ractices
are based on the idea of woman's and insignificance. W
They are astonished to see the freedom and equality allowed between the sexes among Europeans, and argue strenuously against it and when vanquished in the argument, they reply with their usual stubbornness and portiiiacity: "May be good Englishmen Chinaman no good."
Since the coming o# European ladies into China, some of their own women have begun to entertain some little idea of their rights, and it is now become a proverb ftinong Chmamen^that "the two most dangerous things tliatcan be Imported into. China are. foreign women and
