AFTER HIS WIFE-DoMEsTIC TREAcH-
ERY-A gentleman passed through here
the other day. in search Of his wife and her
paramour who had started across the plains
few days in advance.
1t appears that the parties are citizens of
St Louis and during the husbands protract-
ed absence in California, a friend had sue
ceeded-by intercepting letters and forging
others-in inducing the wife to believe that
ho never intended to return. A thousand
dollars, which he had sent to his wife, had
also been intercepted and letter from him
forged, informing her of his desertion and
marriage in California.
While under the frenzied sense Of this
conviction, the most hellish arts were applied
and she was induced in rash moment to
throw herself into the arms Of the seducer,
and accompany him to California The
feelings of the unhappy husband, on his re-
turn to his desoIate home-but few weeks
after the wife-for whom he had successfully
toiled for many years-had departed forever
with another, and that other his faithful
friend, may, perhaps, be imagined, but can
not be described!
We are glad to learn that the trail of the
fugitives has been discovered, and we trust
this heartless destroyer Of human happiness
may receive condi ign punishment-such as
our laws do not infict.

Sin reply to your letter of inquiry,
YOU are informed that where party dies
before the issue of his land warrant, under
the act of 2Sth September, 1850, the right
to it dies with him unless there be widow,
or children, who were minors at the time of
the passage of the act. If he left widow,
the application may be renewed in her name ;
or if none, then in the names of such minor
children IF there be neither widow nor
minor children, no right vests in any one
The act of 22d March, 1852, is silent as to
the right of the widow Or children to renew
the application if the party dies before OBJ
tanning the warrant.
If the claimant dies after the issue of the
warrant the title thereto rests in the heirs
in the same manner as real estate, and
can be assigned only by those who could
convey tract of land descended from the
ancestor,
Very respectfully,

Of the act distributing among the counties,

begin, so that the route presents some ad-

We have here given the positions occu-
pied by the opposing candidates on the sub
ject Of Internal Improvements, as far as we

mention the fact that Capt. Lewis, who

sailing schooner, belonging to Brandywine,
for the purpose, as was then alleged, of ira
dino between New Orleans and the Rio

more vessels Of that class were wanted and
could be sold at New York Perhaps this
