2 THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: ANUARY 8, 1877.-Eight Pages. THE OMAHA BEE FREE LOVE WEDDING. Marrying Without a Parson or Squire—A Queer Document. 8t, Louis Globe. ,Bostou, December 28.—Probably you have not heaid of the new firm of Hull & Johnson. It is a very young firm, and has not, as yet, made auy great stir even in Boston. The senior partner 18 Mary Flor- euce Hull, a daughter of the very advanced radical who edits the Bosa- $m Orucible. Mr. Hull’s hobby is the abolition of all marriage and di- vorce laws, leaving the citizen free to make his or her domestic ar- Jngements under a general law of contracts ; and his preaching of this new socul gospel has borne fruit in his own household, it nowhere else The junior partner is Horace Alvin Johnson. Tuesday evening, while the Cru- owbie ecitor was entertaining some radical friends at his house, 4 Bates fi‘oe, Mary and Horace eame into eroom and handed him a paper, which Mary asked him to read aloud. It proved to be a ““business and conjugal contract,” and ran as 9 lows: We, whose names are hereunto snunexed, do, on this twenty-sixth day of December, in the year one theousand eight hundred and seven- ty-six of the Christian Era, enter into a business and conjugal con- tract, the firm to be known as Hull & Johnscn. ‘We regard ourselves as, 1n every sense of the word, equal puriners, promising to strive to treat each other, under all circumstances, as becomes such. We promise that we will not try in any other way tuan by advice or persuasion to control the actions of each other. Believing that neither Church nor Btate have any business with our aflairs, we propose to live our own lives without reference to either, further than, if necessary, to give security to the Commonwealth of Massachusetts that our ehildren, we be blessed with offspring, shall be, at least, as well cared iJor a3 are & majority of those born in legal wedlock. We further contract that when mutusl love shall no longer justify our conjugal union, we shall part, giving the State as littie trouble in courting as we have had in coming together. The reading finished, Mary and Horace asked auy one in the com- K:ny who knew any just cause or iment—or words to that ef- fect—to speak out then and there, or forever thereaiter hold his peace. If the paper wasn’t right, or if they were not right, they wanted to know it. No one offering any ob- Jection, they stepped to the table and signed the contract. Mary and Horace are now keep- ing house at 30 Hudson street, and Mr. Hull says they sre “to all ap- pearance enjoying as much hap- iness as falls to people in this ife.” e—— Oregon’s Silver Mud. Henry G. Hanks has suomitted to the Microscopical Society a report on asample of the silver-sprinkled mud recently brought f-om Waseo County, Oregon. The sample, on being subjecied to a fire ussay, was found to conta:n 7.4 per cent of silver or 184 pounds avoudupois to the ;on of 2,000 pounds, being $3,468 to the ton. Examined microscopicaily, it was found to contain iree siiver, mixed with finely divided mud. A few minute crysials were found with the silver when coucentrated washing, some of which are very interesiing. The appearance of the siiver does not indicate 1ts source. It is not filings. 1t is not precipita- ted by copper from a solution, as it 18 not crystalized. It has theappear- ance ol having been introduced as AL amalgsc , but wno trace of mer gury remains. ‘The wet mud loses eighty per cent in drying, aud dry residue contsins eighty-nuie ounces to tue ton. Anotuer sample hand- lea did not contain & trace of silver. Mr. Hauks considers tuis mud a remarksble substance. If the silver bas been added for fraudient pur- poses, which he can scarcely doubt, juas still remarkable, as the person whbo prepared 1t has so skulifully covered his tracks that he cannot with certainty declare it a irasud.— [San Francisco Call. —— Infernul Machines in the Russian Navy.

We found them when cur fleet was in the Baltic, ond the vessels used to dredge for them, bring tbem up, and destroy them.
