Property Of Married Women,

The following bill passed both houses OF tho
New York Legislature, designed to protect inat-
ried women in the enjoyment of their property.
This Is emphatcally an age of progress and the
Empire State, by her example, has done much to
explode the old ieudal doctrines about the rights
of women. The law is passed and we are glad
of it. We will now see from experience wheti-
er the marriage relations will be destroyed or
weakened by protecting women against the ex
travngance aud proaigacy Of their husbands.
SEC. l. The real aud personal prop
erty of any female who may hereafter
marry, and which she shall own at the
time of marriage, and the rents. issues,
and profits thereof, shall not be subject
to the disposal Of her husband, nor be IL
able for his debts, and shall continue her
sole and separate property.
50. The real and personal property.
and the rents, issues and profits thereof.
of any female now married, shall not be
subject to the disposal of her husband.
but shall be her sole and separate prop
erty, as if she were single female, ex-
cept so far as the same may be liable for
the debts of her husband heretofore COLI
tracted.
So. 1t shall be lawful for any married
female to receive by gift, grant, devise
or bequest, from any person other than
her husband. and hold to her whole and
separate use, as if she were single fe.
male, real and personal property, and the
rents, issues and profits thereof, and the
same shall not be subject to the disposal
other husband, nor be liable for his debts.
"a. All contracts made between per-
sons in contemplation of marriage, shall
remain in full force after such marriage
shall take place.

The Rank of wooster.

We have no news TO communicate concerning
this "individual liability" concern. that will have
a tendency to increase the value Of its paper. A
correspondent of the Ohio Statesman, writing
from Wooster, April 18th says:
"The Wooster Bank sent two wagon
loads ofspecie 10 Cleveland night before
last. Thts is true. 1t is now ascertain,
ed TO be fact and no secret, that Joseph
S. Lake and 0. Klemm, his son-in.law

is now certain that the failure is worse

which position he has occupied during
the whole time which, by his own show

guilty is the man who, having been en-
trusted with the management and guar

suffers the same to be squandered by a
third person by his consent. than that
knave himself? The public will Judge"

from doing any material damage Whereupon
the excitement was transferred to the Senate and
House Of Representatives.
The editor ofthe paper was requested to re.

properly refused TO do. He has conducted a
moderate paper. he has made 10 effort to create
excitement. he has hOd no hand in the abduction

We have thus given sufficient extracts
of tho late news from Europe to let oul
readers form an idea of the great events
now transpiring upon the continent. En-
gland and Ireland cannot, in the event oI
War, remain passive. France cannot
remain in peace. And should the wal
commence, it will be one of the blood
lest in the annals Of the world. That il
will result in the good of tie greatest
number, we have no doubt. Revolutions
never go backward and though the Peo'
pie may be apparently checked by theil
iyrant kings, yet an advance is made and
sooner or later it will be felt.

Some time last winter, small squad Of office
holders. in Quincy, Illinois, got up public dem

Pondence to write to Gen. Taylor and obtain his
views upon public matters generally and the War
in particular. They wished to know from the
