Relief Notes.

A Bill has passed both branches of the Legisla-
ture and now only awaits the signature OF the
Governor 10 become law, which makes provision
for cancelling 100000 worth of the Relief Notes
now in the Treasury and for the further cancelling
of 500, 900 worth every month. This is an ex-
cellent move, and if followed up by the passage
of a law allowing the solvent specie paying Banks
to issue one uco and three dollar bills, cannot fail
in afording an immense deal of relief to our suf.
ering community 1t is true il will take about two
wears before all the Relief issues can in this man.
ner be cancelled, but the Bill provides that those
of the broken Banks shall be first destroyed, we
will soon be nd OF the wofst. The rest will pass
freely until they are called in, and be principally
used for paying tolls and taxes Doubts are en-
tertained whether the Governor will sign the Bill
For our part, we do not see how he can prevent
such salutary measure from becoming a law.
lie knows that the people are in pecuniary sense,
bleeding at every pore-that the business commu-
nifty are shaved 10 the amount of thousands of
dollars year. and that the poor laborer who earns
his few dollars week, must submit of a Saturday
evening TO loss Of perhaps one tenth of his hand
earned wages. And all this on account of the
depreciation Gf the Relief Notes. In the face of
all these facts, we cannot believe that David R.
Porier will defeat this measure, until we receive
The evidence of it over his own signature.

Gently from Stamford Connecticut, where she
has been remaining in order TO obtain a divorce
from him, succeeded OH Wednesday last in ta-
king her by force from the house where she
was residing in the latter place. The case is
thus stated in a New York paper:
She was the daughter Of Lyman Wells, a
wealthy gentleman at Yonkers, Westchester
county, by which Mr.. Miller became possess
ed in right of fortune. In short time the
feelings of the young wife were seduced from
her husband. and she induced TO leave him and
return to her relatives The husband endeav-
ored by force to regain possession of his wife,
a quarrel ensued, and the husband vas defeat
ed, fiogged, and bound over in $4,000 10 keep
the peace.
MIR. Miller was a man Of too much spirit to
stay defeated, and he, on Thursday afternoon,
procured of Disbrow, Of The Vauxhall Riding
School, one of his fastest teams, and drove TO
Stamford, CT, where he learned his vile was
stopping He called at Seely's tavern 10 get
some refreshments. He was somewhat surpri-
zed, however, to learn that the object Of his
search was under the same roof with himself.
He had his team arranged in readiness al the
door and then went into the room where his
wife was sitting, and seeing him she became
alarmed and screamed for help.
Mr. Miller, without more aid seized her and
rushed to The door He was interrupted in his
flight by the bar-keeper. whom he proslraled
with blow, and safely lodged his charge in
the carriage, and ordered the driver TO speed
10 town. For time she s,ruggl led 10 escape
but before reaching the city she became recon-
ciIed, and consented 10 unite her fate with her
liege lord, and render 10 him due obedience. In
one hour and thirty minutes the parties were in
safe conceament in this city. In one hour af-
Ter, the brother of Mrs. Miller, accompanied
by an officer reached town, and, procuring the
aid OF our police, commenced searching for the
supposed iusitives. Search however, was in
vain, for yesterday morning they were safely
embarked on board vessel, and are now before
a spanking breeze, vending their way to the
West Indies.
