AlGSNEseTA.-The Republicans of Minneso-
ia. who hold their State Convention on the
10th day of July, propose to elect their dele
gates to the National Convention at that time.
This is the first movement in regard to the Ma
tional Convention that we have noticed on the
Republican side. The St Paul Minnesotian
says 1.-THE delegates TO the National Con-
vention from this State will, of course, no
matter when appointed, be uninstructed except
as to the nomination for the Presidency of
some undoubted Republican, of competent abil-
tiles, who can combine the most elements for
success in his character
The Minnesotian has the following in regard
to the frost and the crops
''TBE CRoPs-While the papers of States
south and east of this say that the late frost in
their ricinities was very severe, and did great
deal Of damage, the press of our State shows
that Its effect here has so little injury as not
to be worthy of mention. The spring here
has been very cold, cloudy, windy, stormy,
and discouraging in the extreme, but owing to
the quickness and dryness of our soil, or to
something else, the crops are in good cond
ton OF progress. We made trip up to St
Anthony on Saturday, and all along the road
we saw fields of corn growing finely, of good
color, and exhibiting no signs of injury, while
the wheat, oats, rye, and potatoes, looked ex-
ceedingly fine. The rye is headed out, and
appears indicative of an excellent yield. The
wheat and oats are green stout, thick, and
thrifty. And some fields of potatoes surpassed
all our expectations, they We're so large and
forward"
The GINSENG EXCITEMENT seems to
eclipse everything else in Minnesota at the
present time. The Minnesotan states that
"large capitalists have come from the East and
are paying out good eastern par finds for all the
ginseng they can get" The St. Peter Free
Press estimates that from S150000 to 100000
viii be realized in the two counties near it, this
season.

IMPORTANT Insurance DEcIsIoN.-In the
Superior Court before Judge Nash, last week,
case was decided involving important ques
tons of the rights of insurance companies and
of the liabilities of persons insured. The ac-
ton was brought by the Peoples Mutual In
surance Company Of Boston against T. G. &
w. w. Carson to recover two assessments on
two deposit notes given by defendants for pol
icies of insurance on stock in their mills in
Berkshire county. The notes were for 500
and $3.50, and the assessments sought to be
recovered were S41 40 on the first note and
Sill ON the second, less $50 paid under prior
assessment. The defendants declared among
other things that the company was fraudulent,
in its existence and organization, that the
above notes were obtained through fraud and
misrepresentation, that the policies of insur-
ance were invalid and worthless, and further
more that said pretended policies" had been
cancelled and the notes given up by the plain
tiff in full accord and settlement of all claims.
The court ruled that the original organization
OF company could not be contested by a de-
PENDANT in an action of contract brought
against him by said corporation that proofs of
fraud and bad faith in obtaining the notes must
be considered by the jury in reference to the
assessments laid upon them; that as general
rule the possession Of a note by its maker af
ter its maturity is pyima tacie evidence of its
payment; but if it should be found that the
notes in the present case had come to the
hands of the defendants upon the payment of
any sum less than the amount due thereon, this
presumption of law was sufficiently rebutted,
unless some additional consideration entered
into the arrangement as motive for the com
promise, or unless the claim was released un-
der seal. The trial occupied six days, and the

HAVING on THE CoMMoN.-On Friday and
Saturday last week. those who visited the
Common had an opportunity to witness the
operation ofhaying by machinery. The now
ing machines worked well, although the grass
was not in the best condition for them, having
Grafton of turning up and stirring the uncured
hay, attracted most attention. This work
was done by Mr.. Charles Billiards. newly in
vented machine, which worked admirably do
ing more in ten minutes than a small army of
men would do in couple of hours. 1t SEEM

We saw no machine for pitching hay.

PARADE OF THE CADETs.-The pupils con-
nected with C. B. Metcalf's school, in this city,
some time ago, for purposes ofphysicaI exercise
and discipline, organized themselves into a mill
itary corps under the attractive name of the
"Highand Cadets" Saturday afternoon, they
made their first public parade under the direc-
ton of Col, John NJ Goodhue, their military
instructor. The corps numbers thirty, and
is furnished with muskets and other trappings
incidental to martial life. The Cadets, attend
ed by Joslyns Cornet Band, marched from
Lincoln Square through Main street to the
Common, where, in the presence of several
military gentlemen, and large gathering of
spectators, they went successfully through the
drill exercises and the customary eyolutions Of
the field. AT five O'Clock they took up their
line of march to tile residence of Mayor Bull
lock, where they were received with very cor
dial hospitality. Equally refreshed no doubt
by the collation. furnished for them, and by the
complimentary manner in which their appear
ance and general bearing had been noticed,
they reformed in front of the residence,
and repeated portion of their parade exercis-
es for the qualification of the ladies and gentle
men gathered in the vicinity, after which the
company separated and the Cadets started
for home. The exercises of this unusual
demonstration, after they commenced, were
uninterrupted by disappointment or disaster,
and seemed to afford much pleasure to the
large number who were out to witness them.

and safe decision. There are woiuen iii
this world whose husbands have broken
and daily break every express and i'm
piled obligation of thsmarriage contract,
and whose lives are as miserable as If in
stead of being bound to loathsome, iv-
ing, they were tied to dead body; and
yet who, with all their million wrongs
that cry to heaven, can gain no remission
of their tortures al The hands of human
laws and tribunals. And now, in what
respect is society made better by interpo-
sing its arbitrary rule to keep up this de-
testable connection We piously roll up
tho whites of our eyes, and mourn over
the darkness of the poor heathen wives,
who, in compliance with custom of so
ciety, burn themselves upon the funeral
pile of their dead husbands, and talk of
sending them the Gospel that we have in
such plentiful quantities, to teach them
better; but we have no Gospel for those
thousands in our midst - the victims of
equally-senseless social prejudices - to
whom bonfire with a dead husband
would be far preferable to a couch with
their living one. Had we not better re-
serve our pity for people nearer home

MYSTERIOUS SUICIDE.-On Thursday after
noon, man was observed to go to the river
bank near the foot of Fifth street, and after
divestiug himself of clothing, he placed
them in sack with stones, and threw them
into the river. He then plunged into the
water himself, and before he could be res
cued, disappeared beneath the surface. Eff
forts were made, yesterday, to recover the
body, but without success. The sack was
fshed up, however, and found to contain
good clothing, and several books in the Dutch
language. On the wristbands of one Of the
shirts was the name of " Christian Bugel,"
which was doubtless that of the unfortunate
man.

Marriage and Divorns

Messrs HENRY JAMES, HORACE GREELY
and JAMES REDPATH, are holding a sort
of triangular controversy, very volumin-
GUS in its character, upon the subject of
marriage and divorce, in the columns of
the New York Tribune. The question
seems to be: Granted that the object Of
marriage is to secure the happiness Of
the parties, what is to be done in cases
where it not only fails of this end, but
makes them miserable2 Mr. JAMES is in
favor Of divorce; Mr.. GREELY believes il
best to hold them to it; and Mr.. REDPATH
occupies sort of mixed position.
Mr. GREELY, who, without q large en-
dowment of the rational faculty, became
free thinker in carly life, has nOw-as
is not very uncommon with men of his
class-subsided into state Of rigid Or
thodoxy, and quotes Scripture" like a
divine; Mr. JAMES quotes from the philos-
Ophers, who, taken as whole, have no
superabundance Of respect for Bible au-
thority; and Mr.. REDPATH, who has been
making observations among the free-love
African danes of Hayti, tells his experi
ence.
One would think that if the question
were submitted to the plain arbitrament
of simple common sense, there would be
no great difdculty in arriving at a sound

The italian States.

The Italian provinces, the right to gov
ern which is claimed by Austria, are We
NICE, the capital of which is the city of
that name, and LoMBARDY, of which Nj
Lam is the capital. Both were overrun
by the French army under NAPOLEON, in
the celebrated Italian campaign of 1896,
and continued subject to the French gov
ernment until the occupation was with
drawn by the treaty of Paris of May 80,
1914, on the abdication of the Emperor
when a guardianship over them was as
sumed by Austria. At this time, both
Venice and Lombardy were in a most de-
plorable condition. Of Venice, it is said
that nearly one-half the population was
in want of charitable assistance. The
misery was frightful.
The exertions of the Austrian govern
ment from 1914 to 1S4S, greatly reduced
the distresses of the people. The rule at
that time, appears to have been both
wise and parental. Pecuniary assistance
from the treasury of the kingdom, better
administration of the revenues, diminu-
ton of local taxation, the opening of the
ports, and the establishment of important
public works, in great measure restored
the country to state of prosperity.
In lS48 the people of these provinces
revolted against Austria, and offered to
become subjects of CHARLES ALBERT,
King of Sardinia, who was then engaged
in contest with that kingdom, and an
unsuccessful attempt was made to expel
the Austrians altogetheD from Italy. In
lS49-CHARLEs ALBERT having been de-
feated and dethroned, and his son sue
cessor, VICTOR EMMANUEL having made
peace with Austria-the other States at
tempted to erect themselves into indepen-
dent republics, but were overcome and
subdued, after a short resistance, and
again reduced under Austrian sover-
eighty, with some reduction of privileges
which they had previously enjoyed
By the treaty of lS4S, between Aus
tria and the Sandman and Lombardo-
Venetian States, the former was permit
ted to keep sufficient garrisons in her
italian possessions to preserve the peace
of the country unbroken. Under this
permission it is claimed that size has been
gradually increasing her force and ex-
tending her occupation, until all Italy
Sardinia only excepted-may be said to
be in her power. Under the treaty, right
to garrison the city of Placenza, on the
frontiers of Piedmont, she is charged
with having erected vast system of for
tifcations that can have no other object
than to threaten Sardinia.
The excuse for its policy on the part Of
Austria is that of necessity-to preserve
the peace of countries inhabited by a
turbulent people, forever on the eve Of
an insurrection. Upon the other side, is
the idea, now universally prevalent, that
every people is, by nature, invested with
the right to prescribe their own form OF
government, and administer it for them
selves. And it is between these different
views that lie the real merits of contro-
versy which, at this time, seems verging
to most unsatisfactory of all trials, an
appeal to arms.

FIaHT OVER DEAD BoDY.--A woman,
named Tierney, was arrested and lodged in the
Ninth street Station house, yesterday after
noon, for having been engaged, with two of
wife lay dead in the room. 1t appears that
some articles Of clothing which had belonged
to the deceased woman, the husband, after her
death, had locked up, and because he would
not allow the, sister of his wife, and the woman
will, they fell upon aud beat him, he said,
numerically. The only sober person in the
party was the bereaved husband, who seemed
to have suffered much from other causes than
those we have named.
