The notorious looseness of the divorce Inws ip some of the States, especially some of the | Western States, Indiana and Illinois for in- stance, bas attracted considerable comment, but ratherin atone of levity than otherwise. The pilgrimage of ill-matched couples and halves of couples, from all quarters to that land of easy di solution of hated ties has been noted rather as 8 topic to be treated inethe joker's column than asaserions question of national morals. Until quite lately we do not remember to have seen any attempt to take into thoughtfal consideration the growing dis- position in this country to sever the marriaze tie. The frightful ease with which the wedding yoke is shuified off “out West” has been illus- trated by the story of the good old Indiara couple. who atter living together without an unkind word passed for fifty years, were horri- fied on reading the morning paper to find themsetves, by some mistake or practic .I joke, solemnly divorced by act of the State Lagisia- ture. It is related that the worthy old couple ‘wept on separate pillows tlmt night, and the next day trudged off to the nearest mazistrate, and after fervently renewing their marriage ‘vows, took the earliest train for a State of stricter divorce law, and where honest mar- Tied folks could go to bed at night without risk of breaking the commandments, by beimg divorced before morning. It would appear, however, from recent statistics that the West bas re- ceived father more than its share of odium for the facility of its divorce legislation. ‘The last number of the New Englander has an article on “Divorce Legistation in the United | States,” by President Woolsey, in which the subject is treated with the grave consideration which it merits. The article is based on a care- ful examination of the statutes of twenty-three States, including nearly all the older ones: and the tacts brought out are startling, and deserve the thoughtful consideration of all good citi- zens. The causes of divorce are given in the various reports present to the legislatures. In Vermont, out of 571 divorces in five years, | there were for adultery, 16%; wil.ul desertion, 1% desertion, 6); mtolerable severity, 126; tor refusal te support, 13; with 20others, in most of which more causes than one sre mentioned. In Massachusetts, out of 1.2% divorces granted im about five years, there were for adultery, 5i6, or 42.3 per cent.; for desertion, 5:9, or 45.6 per cent; for cruelty, 122, or 9.4 per cent.; 15 for sntemperance, and 2) miscellaneous. Here the large ratio for adultery is startling. Can this represent the real stateof the case? In Onio, out of 251 cases of which the causes sve par- ticularly assigned, there were grant 1 for adultery, #35; for absence and nezlect, 1,030; for cruelty, 440; for intemperane>, 196. Of the origin of the applicants for divorce ‘we have noitems furnished to us, save that in Obio the counties where the C.tholic> form a considerable part of the population fell t -low their ratio, while the « Western Reserve coun- tes have & much larger proportion of divorces than the rest of the Star-.” These counties constitate « New Connecticut,” the settlers of Which came from the old Stare. The fact is significant, 9s it appears from the statistics present*d under the heads of the ratio of an- nual divorces to annual marriazes that the State of Connecticut figures mo-t conspieu- ously. In looking about for an explanation of this fact, it seems that to the two origmal causes of divorce in Connecticut—adultery and desertion—there were added two others in 1-43—« habitual intemperance and intolerable cruelty,” and that in 1549 a new batch of causes was superadded, viz: sentence of imprison- ment for life, beestiality, or any otner infamous crime involving a violation of conjugal duty and punishable by mmprisopnent im the State prison, and—what we have already spoken of—any such misconduct of the other party as permsnently destroys the happiness of the p2- titioner and defeats the purpose of the mar- riage relation. This last is generally known as the “omnibusclause.” Itappears that after each of these advances in legislation there was am imcrease of divorces; that the divorces in i-@4 were five times as many as in 14i%, 9!- though the population Bad grown by the ad- dition of less than one-balt, of which one-half Catholics, who did not swell the diverces, tormed nots small part; and that the +‘ omu- bus” clause, both directly and by its influence when other causes were weak, aided the pe- titioners for divorces not a little. lu Vermont, the ratio of a:nual divorces to annual marriages foots up for seven years a total of 730 divorces (o 15,710 marriages, or a ra- hoof tto®t. Im Massachu:etts, for a period of four years, there was a total ef 1,022 divorces to 45,372 marriages, a ratio ot | to 44. In Ohio, in 1566 the divorces were 1,169; marriaze3, #A7% oF & ratio Of 1 to. In Connecticut, in & period of eight years, the divorces foot up 2,910: marriages, 33,227; a ratio of t to 1!. From Prussia we have: ome mat -riais for in- stitating & comparison between that country of loose divorce laws and the States named above. Weexclade the Catholic population, which cannot be done with accuracy in the States, and thns the story the tables tell is unfairiy in f1- Yor of the latter. For instance, in Connectient ‘Where the whole number of marriages was 4,975 u Is66, the marriages, in which both par.ies were of foreign birth, were 1,°03. Now of these it is sase to say that two-thirds, say eight hundred, were Catholics, who rarely pe- tion for divorce in that State. Deducting them we have the rat‘o of one divorces to less than eight and 8 bs'f so called Prot’ tant or rather non-Ca‘holic marriages. Prussia, in 1835. a —— of non-Catholic=, 84,914; divorces, 5 Fatio, 1 to 29. ‘7 Connecticut, “the land of steady habits,” is at the bottom of the list altogetber. The ratio of divorces to marriages is there double what it is in Vermont, nearly four-fold that in Massachusetts, and mach more than double that in Prussia. There are absolutely more divorces in Connecticut, on the ayerage, by 18 (viz: (¢4 every year) than in Massachu- sels, & State with two anda balf timesa¢many ipbabitants. There were in 1565 more than half ss many as in Ohio, a State with almost five times the population. It is stated im this connection that the divorces in several of the States were unduly great in the year 1664, and have been so since the war. ‘The reason must be that many hasty marriages ‘were contracted by soldiers; the motive being, on the woman's part, to ge: a share of the bounty or the pensiom, if the husband should be Killed. But to counterbalance this, the marriages, as always happens in similar cases atte wet, Dave increased quite perceptibly, so tbat the ratio is not much affected. Woman's Ricnts.—A practical evidence of the advancement of the woman's rights doc. ‘rime took place in England lately. At a political meet'ng in London to make arraage- ments for the approaching general election, a Mrs. Law delivered & speech om the plat- form, She said she stood there as the repre. sentative of ome bundred thousand seam- stresses of London, who eataed one shilling per Gay, sud of suother fifty thousand who earned sixpenc? per diem. She loudly praised ‘Mr. Mill, who “had mo equal ta this country for liberality, Dresdth and compass of thouga', or for purity, integrity, aud unswerving honesty.” Us WHOLESOME Tatx.—The Richmond Fn- quircr says that the mep-of the South “have seen the day when they could v<e the bullet and if God, in Bis anger, permit te ne 2essity to arise, they wel seeds ‘The wheat is dearly over. The crop is nearly double that of test yer, and will exceed by one~ the usual average. a | THE CAMPAIGN IN THE EAST. | & brief review of the political campaign in the Western States of Ohio, Indiana, and Illi- nols was given in the StaR of Monday. Al- though the New England States, with) the single exception of Connectient, have for the Jast ten years uniformly given majorities tor the Republican tickec, the Presidential cam~ paign in the East has opened with comsider« able vigor. In the State of Maime the issue ig tairly divided on the Gubernatorial ticket.. ‘The Democrats are so hopelessly in the minor- ity in the Congressional districts that little or Ro contest will be made by them there, with the exception, possibly, of the Portland district, whrch they carried in 164, electing Hon. L. D. M. Sweat, but which the Republicans re- treved in 1366 by 3,95* majority. Nomi- vations ‘have thus far been made but in thiee ef the Maine distmets for Congress, The State election is held the first week in September, and both parties are straining every nerve to win the day. The Democrats are not very conficent of electing their candidate, but are working to reduce the Republican major. ity. In the Presidential election ot 1364 Mr. Lincoin’s majority was 24,501, and in the pre- ceding September the Republican yote for | Governor was but a trifle less. In Septemhber, | be, it was redaced to 11,614. The Republi- | caus, however, are making a most thorough canvass this month to bring their majority to the old standard. The State Commitee, of which Hou. James G. Blame is chairman, are Teaching every voter in the State. On Satur- day evening last the Democrats held a large ratification meeting of the Seymour and Blair ticket, in Portland, which was eddressed by the leading Democrats of the State. In New Hampshire no election precedes the Presidential one in November, but both par. ties are already in the field, and ratification meetings have been held in Concord, Ports- mouth and Manchester. The nomiuations for the 4Ist Congress do not take piace until next winter. In the Presidential campaign of 1560 Mr. Lincoln's majority in this State was 9,115; | im 1964 it was 3,561; in 1865 the Republican ma- jority for Governor was 6,127; in 1566 it was 4,066: in L867 it was 3,147 and im March, 1563, . The majorities show considerable change in eight years, increasing one year and decreasing the next. A State election is held in Verment in Sep- tember, and the Republicans will undoubtedly carry the State. In 1867 the Republican ma- jority was 20,162, amd im 196i the State gave Mr. Lincoln 29,095. The intermediate years de not show much change and the record ot fig- ures isof but little use in a State which has voted but one way for twenty years. No election is held in Massachusetts before November, and not a single Congressional | nomination has been made. The present mem- bers of the Fortieth Congress will all be re- | nominated for the Forty-first, unless General Twichell declines to run againin the Third District. Ajthough his majority in 1966 was 3,483, the Democrats prior to that year came | very near carrying the District several times, | and, it is understood, intend to make a spirited | contest over it this Fall. The largest majority j in any district im the State is given to Hon. W. } B. Washburne in the Ninth, who last year re- ceived 10127, and the smallest to General Twichell, of the Third, which, as stated, was 3.453. In the Fifth District.an effortis to be made by some parties to defeat General Butler. General Schouler, at present a member of the Legislature, and a Conservative Republican in polities, 1s to be run as an independent can- didate for Congress, while the Democrats will put up Mr. Northend, of Salem, or Mr. Spof- ford, ot Newburyport, in the hope of giving General Schouler a plurality. In 1866 General Butler’s majority was 6,153. In the State elece ton last Fall Governor Bullock bad, over Jobn Quincy Adams, 27,916; but in the pre- vious year the Republican majority was 65,209. In 1964 Mr, Lincoln hed over McClellan, 77,997- The Democrats are about to open the campaign With a mass meeting at Fanueil Hall. In Rhode Island the campaign will prove to be a spiritless affair. The Republican majori- ty is so large that the Democrats do not make much ofa fight to reduceit. But in Connecti- | cut the reverse is the case. No Statein the Union will witness a more hotly contested | campaign. The Democrats have already the control of a portion of the State Government, while the New York ticket is more acceptable to the Comnectient Democracy than, perhaps, to any other section. Each party has the State thoroughly organized, and each is confi- dent ofa final triumph m November. In 186% Mr. Lincoln's majority was 2,46, In 1965 the Republicans carried the State by 11,035; in 1566 by 541; but in 1867 the Democrats elected Gov. English by $76, and in 1865 by over 1,700 mayor- ity. It isevident that the hard fighting of the campaign in the East will be covfined to the States of Connecticut and Maine. The new proprictors of the £zpress, Messrs. J. D.and A. P. Hoover, mtroduced themselves to their readers yesterday in a good-tempered. | well-written salutatory. The valedictory of the late owners, in which they claim “to hi founded a journal which, in less than six months, took the lead of its contemporaries in circulation, and gave a new impulse w the character of Washington journalism,” will be read with a smile by those tamiliar with the particolars of their notable journalistic failure. ‘The Messrs. Hoover announce that the Ezpress will take an active part in the campaign for Seymour and Biair. They have the ability and experience to make it an able and energetic exponent of the principles of the Democratic party. It is understood that Robert Geddes, Esq. 4 well-known and experienced journal- ist, will be the leading editorial writer of the | dapress. Tue Workinc Peortx.—A circalar, dated July 28th, bas been distributed in the coal re- gious, mviting the working men to require pledges trom the cand\dates for the Legislature that if elected, they will use all honorable means in their power to pos: a bill thatall lnbor done over eight hours shall be time and one balf time; or, im other words, that forty minutes shall consiitate one hour.
