Since the foregoing remarks were put in type,
we have heard that in the New Code, which it is
understood is about finished, the reform which
we advocate is strongly recommended, with the
proposition that all officers of the police be plac-
ed upon regular salaries, instead of being al
lowed, as at present, a portion of the fines.
This is as it should be. Were the proposed
Code published, however, as we have frequently
intimated it should be, the beneficial effect
would be found not only in the preparation of
members for their Legislative duties, but in the
satisfaction with which the public would receive
those intimations of proposed reforms which
they are entitled to expect-from a legislative
comnaizion, even.

THE LATEST ROMANCE.

Tho Cincinnati Gazette gives au account of a
case which occurred in that city recently, which,
as it says, sets an example for loving husbands
that has no parallel on record, and but for the
criminal reality connected with It, would throw
the latest romance into obscuIlty.
1t appears that the elder brother of family
residing at Naples, Italy, married wife consid-
orably his junior, and she became the sold
mans darling" Like AIelnotte, he'd sshave
no friends that we're not lovers" and with
pride be pointed to his pretty wife, aud made
her bis idol, his temple of devotion, morning
and evening. lu an evil hour a younger bro
ther, Michael Angelo Gitto, looked @ith loving
eyes upon his sister-iu-law, and she was won
from her allegiance 10 her lord. The guilty
pair made their escape 10 this country, bring
ing with them a little daughter and leaving the
husband and TWO little boys in their deserted
Italian home The brother lover aud his fair
companion reached Cincinnati some months
ago, and opened confectionery store on Main
street. In time the husband learned thei-
whereabouts, aud taking his two motherless
boys with him, he sailed for that city He at
once sought out the guilty pair, and lmplored
the wife to return to her allegiance, but to no
purpose. He was rudely spurned by both wife
and brother, and, as a last resort, he had them
arrested for adultery. The case was to come
up before Justice, but mutull friends inter-
fered. Unlike the s'Misanthlope," who feared
the jeers of boys and girls, should they see him
with his runaway wife upon his arm, the elder
Gitto, with tears coursing down his cheeks, be-
sought her on his knees to return with him to
the sunny cline of Italy, aud make his home
once more heaven Of domestic peace. The
scene was affecting the picture being rendered
complete by the pleading looks and iears of the
little boys, who had accompanied the father in
his long and tedious journey. There vas a
choice between the penalty for adultery aad
husbands arms The wife hesitated, the hus-
band pleaded, friends councelled obedience,and
all combined, at length prevailed. She con-
sented TO return to Italy with her husband
The guilty brother agreed to pay the COSTS aud
lawyers fees, the husband took his runaway
wife upon his arm, and his children by the hand,
.nd left the court SO overjoyed with his recover
ed treasure that he actually kissed the hands of
tiiend who had been mainly instrumental III
bringing about consummation Of his happiness
under such peculiar circumstances.

The LAST CARD.--The Berks county Ro-
turn judges showeda disposition to throw out
the returns from one of the wards In Reading,
and thus 10 return Clancy jones again to
Congress; but the popular indignation was SO
great that they were compelled to adhere to the
law, and to announce the election Of Schwartz
by nineteen majority. This great victory over
this Janus-faced politician and professional
Presidential dinuer-gourmand, was received by
the people of Berks, without distinction OF
