The first steps for the emancipation of
the serfs in Russia are soon to be published.
They include the following two e eat prin-
ciples: 1st, Freedom of Marriage" No
serf can be forced in future to marry against
his will or prevented from marrying accord
ing to his own desire. Cd, mo serf can
be transferred from one village to another
against his will" The remainder of the
ukase is less important. These two points,
however, are sufficient to recogoize his
rights as man. Its likewise rumored that
the power of chastising the serf will be cir
cumscribed, though not at once entirely
taken out of the hands of the landlord

From the New Orleans Pieayune.
Division Of rexas---A New slave State

Division Of fexas---A New Slave State.
The subdivision of Texas into two or more
States is revived in the public journals of
that State. No State in the Union has in
creased in population and wealth during the
last few years more than Texas. Her esti
mated population at this time amounts to
more than half million, and when the next
census is taken it will be found sufficient to
entitle the State TO six or seven Represents
tives In Congress.
Several reasons are given for division ::
The great size of the State; the great dis
similarly of its parts, and the difficulty of
constant communication between all parts,
and one centre of Government, are among
the chief of them. The general political
reason is the importance of increasing the
strength of the South in the United States
Senate, by the addition of more Senators, to
check the increasing predominance OF the
nom -slaveholding States, from the growth of
free soil States in the Northwest.
The subdivision of Texas into not more
than four States is provided for by the arti-
cles of annexation. Taz TE4r
One of the principal objections is that,
perhaps, one of the new States may be a
free State. by reason of the predominance
in one portion of the State of settlers from
Europe, who do not employ slave labor
That danger is oyerrated. 1t is proposed to
avoid all apprehension on that subject by
making new State out of the first Con-
gressional district as now constituted, which
win be sure to adopt slave Constitution,
and in the remainder of the State-the orig
inal Texas-the preponderanee is clear, and
the constitution provisions sufficiently de-
cided. 5.E i7 -5s5s~iIz3 s-rs z2gcT

The Marriage Contract in Indiana.
J. H. LANE,
Major General.

A rather singular case has recently been
decided in Indiana, by which it is declared
that marriage in that State requires no
formalities to make it legal. except the mere
agreement of the parties; that il is a civil
contract only. and differs from other civil
contracts merely in this-that it cannot be
dissolved; even by mutual consent. 1t is
provided in -4etion seven in the revised
statutes of Indiana, that s'no marriage shall
be void, or soidable, for the want of license
or other formalities required by law, if Ell
ther of the parties thereto believe it to be a
legal marriage at the time 1t is further
provided that the agreement may be record
ed. but the failure or neglect to do this is
punishable only by a fne--lNo. Democrat.
