Oiu* Divorce Laws.

A good deal has been said, and a great more ,oan be said, concerning the repeal of the law in regard to divorce as its now stands in our statutes.

That it is a shame and a disgrace to our State is almost.universally admitted —and yet we fear that there is danger of no radical change being effected in this respect by the Legislature now in session.

We do hope however, not only for the fair name of the State, but for the rights of society, that before its adjournment something will be done by this body to do away with the many odious features of the existing law, and that hereafter our State instead of being a laughingstock and a by-word for the facility with which divorces are obtained in our courts, will take her stand by the side of those which regard marriage as a contract too sacred to be annulled by but few things short of death itself.

We are heartily tired of seeing, year after year, migrations among us of dissatisfied men and women who liave entered into pledges at God's holy altar to take their partners "for better or for worse," and who after a short experiment of living together as man and wife, conclude they can do better by coming to Indiana and procuring a divorce.

Our courts have enough to do without being compelled to crowd their records with applications like these.

While it cannot bo denied that the public mind does not sanction the facility with which divorces are obtained, very often upon the flimsiest pretexts imaginable and without any regard to justice or right, we fear that it is not ully awake to the injury which results to society from such a course.

The time was when marriage, instead of being a sort of "taking on trial" aflair, as is sometimes done in some of our churches concerning their members, was regarded as a holy ordinance "not to be entered into unadvisedly or lightly, but reverently, discreetly, advisedly, soberly, and in the fear of God."

As the law now stands, it is almost as easy to get unmarried as to get married "The discretion of the Court" is a very comprehensive, and sometimes in its application, a very ambiguous phrase.

Ordinarily there exists in the consciences of Judges about as great a difference as there is in the length of their feet or the cut of their garments.

This discretionary power is one of the most odious features of our present divorce law, and one which, above all others should be done away with.

Discretion is a good thing in the hands of a discreet man and while the power to grant divorces at the will of an Ellen borough or a Mansfield might be very judicious and proper, it by no means follows that.the same right should be extended promiscuously to all of the Cir euit and Common Pleas Judges of our State, for it can hardly be claimed for them as a class, even by their most enthusiastic admirers, that they by any means come up to the standard of the eminent chancellors wo have named, either in the extent of their learning or the purity of their characters.

One of the chief objections to our existing laws in regard to divorces is, that from the very facility with which they are obtained, hasty and inconsiderate marriages are encouraged. Let it be understood that the bonds of matrimony, when once entered into, are not to be sundered for trivial causes, but are to continue until severed by death, and we will not hear of so many mismatched and unhappy couples.

If our laws were so changed as to provide only for a separation between man and wife—a divorce from bed and board only, instead of an entire cutting of the matrimonial chain—our courts would be much less annoyed with family jars and difficulties than they are at present, its it is a melancholy fact that many, indeed we think that we can safely say, the most of the divorces of the present day are applied for, not so much because the parties cannot live together as man and wife, but because one or the other of them fancies an affinity in someone else, with whom life would become as smooth and as placid as an unruffled lake, instead of the boisterous ocean which their matrimonial experience has found it.

We repeat that we hope someting will be done during the present session of the Legislature to materiallly alter our statutes upon the subject on which we have been writing, as the laws as they now stand are not only a burning shame to our State, but a disgrace to the age in which we live.

THE "Barnes Will" was refused probate yesterday, and Messrs. Samuel Orr and Charles Viele were appointed administrators, at the petition of the heirs ut law.— Kvansville Journal.

Now comes the fat feast for lawyers and sheriffs and all the attachees of the t'anderburg county Courts. IJarnes forgot to administer on liis own estate, but left it for his heirs to quarrel about and lawyers to grow fat over.

Some men never make their wills, until they are sick enough to die, while others do it 1n such a manner, and under such circumstances, that they are "broken" and go for nothing. As we said yesterday, be your own administrator, and then there will be no difficulty about your property, while you are knocking at the doors of St. Peter for admission.

Legislative Summary.

I N I A N A O I S

Feb. 22.

On motion by Mr. Williams, the bill [H. II. 342] repealing tax for State debt sinking tund purposes was read the second time.

On his motion—yeas 41, nays 0—the bill read the third time and finally passed by yeas 42, nays 0.

On_his further motion the bill [H. R. 343] to raise revenue for State purposes for the years 1871-2 and subsequent,years five cents on the $100 of property entered for taxation and fifty cents on each poll, was read the second time.

On motion by Mr. Williams, the Senate resolved itself into a Committee of the Whole, for the consideration of this bill, in accordance with a constitutional requirement.

Mr. Green was appointed chairman by the Lieutenant Governor, and the bill having been read-

On motion of Mr. Williams, the committee rose and reported a recommendation that the bill pass without amendment.

The report of the committee was concurred in. On motion by Mr. Williams, the Constitutional restriction was dispensed with. The bill was then read the third time, and finally passed by yeas 43, nays 9.

Mr. Gray moved to take up the bill (H. II. 1"2) compelling suits to be brought in counties where the maker of the same •resides, and that the constitutional restrictions be dispensed with that it may be pressed to its final reading to-day.

The motion was agreed to by yeas 37, nays, 4.

THE Chicago Republican notices that Western journals mention the fact that an active traffic in soldiers' discharge papers has lately sprung up in various localities. Inasmuch as such papers are of no use or value, and cannot be made honestly valuable to any one but the soldiers themselves—for no right or interest can be conveyed with them —it is not a violent presumption that the basis of whatever speculation may be involved in the business, it is a design to use the papers dishonestly. The peculiar form of swindling contemplated by the speculators, has not yet been developed but the probabilities are that attempts will be made to adopt an extensive system of personating soldiers entitled to homesteads under the law recently passed. In any case, no soldier should ever permit the official record of his honorable service to pass out of his own hands. When he presents his claims for benefits accruing under any of the acts of Congress, that record will be found valuable and the man into whose hands it may have been permitted to pass for a trilling consideration, will doubtless be able to exact a heavy profit on his investment, as the price of producing the paper when it is wanted. The traffic alluded to has all the surface indications of fraud, of which the Government or the soldiers, or both, are to be the victims and effectual measures should be taken to discourage or suppress it at once.

The End of tlie Siege.

A letter from Paris, written on the day of the armistice says: Think of the shells bursting in a hospital of three thousand bed ridden old women—in a lying-in hospital—among the crowded quarters of the poor for there seems to be no doubt that such places were aimed at the object being to so terrify the lower classes as to make them rise and compel the Government to surrender. This has been done everywhere. It may be war but it is not chivalry. But the shells did not hasten by one day the fall of Paris. It was the rationing of bread—the near ap proach of a horrible famine—the actual disease and suffering. When long lines of people had to format the entrance of every bakery to get the little loaf for the day's consumption too small for a single meal when those who went to restaur ants were required to bring their own bread when the soldier's three days' rations would scarcely make a single good meal, famine was felt to be very near—and the horror of a famine of two millions of beleagnred people, cut off from all hope of rescue, was too great for the brave men to meet. The last sortie delayed, disarranged, mismanaged, per haps, was yet desperately fought. The successes of the French at first, and the heavy losses on both sides, showed that Nothing can be said against the bravery of troops who carry position after posi tion at the point of the bayonet, though repulsed at last, and swept olt' by the enemy's artillery. And nothtng can be said again3t the courage of the thousand dead Frenchmen who lay in one narrow space before the German intrenchments nor the five thousand wounded carried in a sad procession to the hospitals of Paris. It is over now. The l'amishin people will be fed.

RICHARD ADAMS LOCKE, the author of the celebrated moon hoax, died recently on Staten Island, at the age of 74. The incident of his life, and which has made him known to fame, was the authorship of a pretended account of the appearance of the moon as purported to be seen in 18o by Si John Herschell, the celebrated as tronomer, when he visited the Cape of Good Hope with his immense telescope. The minute and technical de scription which the account gave of a newly discovered habitable world, with its winged population and strange animals, deceived thousands of well educated persons. The pretended source was the Edinburgh Scientific Journal, and many savatis in the couutry actually wrote to the dditor for further information. The moon hoax was a great success and it was much admired even alter its spuriousnesswas discovered, for tlieingeuuity of its description, especially of minor details. This caused it to be republished in ISoO, and had it not been for the imposture the name of .Richard Adams Locke would not have been thought worthy of being handed down to posterity.

THE old debt of Virginia is to be funded, and new State bonds are to be issued for the principal of State bonds outstanding ou April 1, 1861, amounting to §32,000,000. The new bonds are to bear date July 1, 1S72, and to run thirty years they are to be either coupons or or registered, at the option of the holder The interest is to be paid the same annually, beginning January, 1872 the coupons to be receivable for State taxes and interest is to be paid regularly on sterling debt included in the thirty-two millions, but new bonds are not "to be issued therefor. Bonds are to be issued for interest accrued, or which may accrue, to July, 1871, and all assets of the State, including West Virginia, be made over to the Commissioners and employed by them, tirst, in payment of said accrued interest, and, second, for the payment of the public nebt.

THE New York Evening Post says: "The President in his message to Congress wisely advises the repeal of all testoaths. Will not Congress do this? The war lias been over for some years now we did not hang any of the rebel leaders, which has always seemed to us a mistake. But it is time to have peace, and the way to secure peace is to abolish all arbitrary distinctions which remind men who would now like to be peaceable citizens of the time when they were the enemies the Union."

ANNA DICKINSON fiatly told the Chicago folks whou some of them "got up and got" before she was through, that she regarded it a sign of very poor breeding. The people who remained in their seats applauded enthusiastically.

THE following is from a Southern letter: "Natchez is sadly changed. The old aristocracy, proud and exclusive, yet generous and chivalric, have disappeared. Their palaces are desolate, and in their ornamented grounds the owl and the fox have their nests. Large plantations, once yielding a net income of from twenty-five thousand to fifty thousand dollars, now lie uncultivated, or deformed with little, half cultivated patches of cotton and the graves of the household, once decorated with the rarest flowers, are now overgrown with brambles. A new population fills the city itself. After twenty years' absence, I traversed the main thoroughfare without recognizing a single person."

General George W. Cass is foreshadowed as the next Democratic candidate for Governor of Pennsylvania.

HAIR VIGOR.

AIEU'S

A I I O

For the Renovation of tlie Hair! The Great Desideratum of the Age!

A dressing which is at once agreeable, healthy, and effectual for preserving the hair. Faded or gray hair is soon restored to its original color and the gloss and freshness of youth. Thin hair is thick ened, falling hair checked, and baldness often, though not always, cured by its use. Nothing can restore the hair where the follicles are destroyed, or the glands atrophied or decayed. But such as remain can be saved for usefulness by this application. Instead of fouling the hair with a pasty sediment, it will keep it clean and vigorous. Its occasional use will prevent the hair from falling oft, and consequently prevent baldness. Free from those deleterious substances which make some preparations dangerous and injurious to the hair, the Vigor can only benefit but not harm it. If wanted merely for a

HAIR DRESSING,

nothing else can be found so desirable. Containing neither oil nor dye, it does uot soil white cambric, and yet lasts longer on the hair, giving it a rich glossy lustre and a grateful perfume.

A WORD TO ore COMPETITORS.

We understand that certain merchants in this city, and a very large number of

country merchants, are complaining bitterly at what they term our monopoly of

the Dry Goods trade. Gentlemen, we came to Terre Haute to break up Monopo­

lies—not to form them Our road to success is not a royal road. There is no secret about it. Any one who wishes to do so, may walk in it. You liavc only io

mark down your old stock about one-half— GET RID OF IT—buy new goods as cheaply as we do, and in selling them, BE CONTEXT WITH A LIVIXG PROFIT, and the Sabbath-like stillness of your stores

will soon be broken up by the same eager throng of customers that so constantly

meet at our establishment. Far better do this, than seek to bolster up a business "growing smaller by degrees and beautifully less," by slander and abuse of us—for

in this your customers are finding you out. You make a great mistake when you

think they are so simple-minded as not to know, tor instance, that an Atlantic Mills

Muslin is the same in your store as in ours. You are selling it at TLN cents per yard, and we are selling it at SIX cents, but this neither makes yours nor ours any

better or worse. It is the same muslin still. That is all, gentlemen now drive

ahead exactly as you please. Your abuse only advertises us and injures yourselves,
