MORALS OF CINCINNATI. -Conjugal
Infdelity by Wholesale. A late num-
Der of the Cincinnati G Commercial, after
giving the particulars of strange case
of conjugal infdelity in that city, then
goes on to make the following startling
statement. We hardly know what to
make Of it. The editor, after men
tioning one aggravated case, then goes
on TO say
The above may be considered a
squally affair, but it is not up TO ruse,
the knowledge Of which we are in pos.
session of, by at least three hundred
per cent Opportunity to cheat
husband is considered more than half
the game. To effect this without the
least suspicion, n society Of the elite
of the ladies of this city has been
formed, each Of whom belonging, has
a lover. They pay a visit to each
others houses, and "whcre two or
three are met" the lover of one or
more is present by invitation or APP
pointment. The others being equally
culpable at another or the same time,
no information is given in fact pro-
lection ample is afforded, to the lovers,
who are allowed 10 enjoy a private and
passionate meeting to their hearts con-
tent, under cover of company of
highly respectable associates. So per-
fectly systematic has this thing been
carried on in our city that one unsus-
pected room has often been the place
of meeting for three or four guilty
ones-the presence of one not acting
in the least MS n hindrance TO the Grim.
inal pleasures Of another. Implicated
rs members OF the unheard of society
are, those who, il named now, would
be powerful enough in accredited vir,
tue to overpower almost any opponent
Of the schemes practised. But tn,
tine is not far distant when the Who'll,
will be exploded and the names known
That day will be one of extraordinar,
weeping, wailng and astonishment.--
The society was founded for the con
venience and revenge, by two of III
most celebrated women of the city, bu
few years since, and as means O
retaliation upon iaithless husbands
it has grown to fearful extent-th
inroads daily making upon the virtuou
are fearful. What are we to think {
the inventions of society as now organ
lied? II it continue as now what sha
we not see?

we learn the impossibility of acquiring correct in

ration of the new postage law. Nor shall we be
able to lay before our readers general exposition

From The city post Office we learn that the number
Of letters, papers, and packages, passing through
their hands, unconnected with the business of the
government has increased about 80 per cent, when
compared with the business Of the month of June
The gross amount of proceeds from postage on these
has fallen OF nearly &C per cent, while the postage
charged to the government for its letters, &c, re-
ceved and sent, is enormous, For the Post Office
Department alone, it is said to reach near $4,000

lege of free bank is to food the State with small
notes, and supersede the general circulation of 'he

woRKING.MEN's ADDRESS.

We most cheerfuly give place to Mr. Norris's
address TO the Democratic Association of this city.
I, contains many bold, and some very just sugges-
lions But the orator might have enlarged the scope
Of his reflections TO great advantage. He has
taught his auditors most of their privileges; he might
have enforced their other duties In this great and
free country, every white man is equal. The hon
ors and emoluments of Office are within the reach
Of every American; and, with the exception of a
few naturuzed citizens, even the road to the high
Is, station in the republic--the presidency-is open
to all.
Our annals also show there is no distinction
which is not accessible to the working-man This
is exemplifed by the cases of Franklin, Of Roger
Sherman, and of a multitude Of others. With these
potcal rights open TO all, it becomes the working
man TO make up by his own energy of character for
the Deficiencies which early life may have brought
upon him. Education may have withheld her rich
est treasures from him; but he should, by his sub
sequent exeftions, make up for what Fortune had
denied him in his youth. He should educate him
SELF acquire new accomplishments, enlarge his
sphere of action, and profit by the glorious oppor-
tunities Of advancement which his country secures
to him. 1t is thus the working-man becomes that
noble beng--the selfmade man!
