We notice BY our New York ex-
changes, that a bill has been introduced
into the Legislature of the State OF
New York for the purpose of regulating
the Theatres Of the State. Among
other provisions it makes it INSIDE
mcanor, punishable by fine and imprls-
onment for any manager Of any
Theatre to admit any minor, unless
accompanied by his parent or guardian.
However good the regulation may
be in intention it is very easy to see
that il vii! be continually evaded.-
Half dozen Of those little ragged
urchins who fill the galleries of the
Metropolitan Temples of the Drama,
will collect together and employ some
ragged, dirty man who has the good
fortune to be over twenty-one years OF
age, to act as guardian for them all. II
the bill is passed we predict that a
thriving trade in guardians" will at
once grow up.

Candidates.

The Council Bluffs Bugie suggests
the name of Hon. a. &. Dodge as the
next Democratic candidate for Cover
nor. 1t is good suggestion, and we
second the motion, friend Babbit. We
have also heard the names of several
other able and popular democrats sug-
gcsted in connection with the same
office, any one OF whom would not
only run well, but fill the post WE'LL
But without any disparagement to
these worthy and talented gentlemen
We think with Col. Rabbit, Gen. Dodge
under all the circumstances to be the
strongest man that the Democratic
party could select for this office, and if
selected will be elected. In this mat
ter, however, whatever may be our
personal preference, We feel, as We
trust also do the great mass of the
party, that the very best and strongest
man aught to be selected as our stand
ard-bearer, wholly regardless of past
prejudices, chickering's, or personal feel
ings. A man who can command the
undivided support of the party and
lead US to complete and glorious
victory"
We add our endorsement to the
above from the Ottumwa Statesman,
and feel satisfied that, with Gen. Dodge
as the standard bearer, a greater unity
of feeling aud action would be obtained
among MS, and brilliant victory be
the result of our labors.-Burlington

the Law lately enacted by the Board OF

Herald
The Express and Herald is not up
to the times. The "curative" act is
also unconstitutional, and it has heen
90 decided by Judge Williams at the
Gutenberg District Court several days
since. The Editor e the Herald will
also remember that Attorney General
Rice, when his opinion was asked for
by the Board Of Education, as to the
constitutionslity Of legallzing the acts,
elections and expenditures under the
bogus School Law, expressed very
grave doubts upon the question, al
though he did enormously advise
them that the passage Of a "curative"
set could do no harm. Upon this re-
commendation-aIthough that bodyt
self was aware Of the question AS 70 its
pOweTs-the Board Of Education passed
the curative act, thus attempting to
patch up the "bungling" work OF the
Legislature, instead Of commencing at
the beginning as they should have
done, and doing it all over again.
The bad policy Of this act is perfect
~ apparent from the fact that we have
been involved in new and additional
difficulties by the decision against its
constitutionality as well as against the
first law.

Judge Davies has recently promul-
gated an opinion in the case OF MGif-
icrt agst. MG,ifcrt, which, if sustained
will have the effect of annulllng many
of the judgements of divorce granted
in the State of Indiana and elsewhere.
1t appears that, in the case under
consideration, the parties were married
in this State in September, 1850, but
after living together for few weeks,
they separated, and the husband file |
a bill for divorce, on the ground OF
physic incapacity on the part of the
wife, which she denied in her answer.
In October, 1851, an order was
made staying all proceedings on the
part of the husband in consequent e of
his neglect to comply with an order
previously made, requiring him to pay
court fees and alimony. In January
1852, Mr.. M'GItfert went to Indiana,
leaving his wife in this State, where
she has since remained. After remain
ing 10 Indiana over year, he filed his
bill against Mrs M'Gificrt for divorce
and she not appearing. the divorce
was granted in May, 1853. In October,
1855, Mr.. M'Glgert returned to this
State, accompanied by woman to
whom he had been married in Indiana
Mrs. M'Giffert No. | then com
menccd suit against him for divorce
Il yincuio mutr'monii, alleging that
his intercourse with the woman to
whom he claimed to be married was
sdulterous.
Upon the authority OF Nischee vs..
Vischee, the Judge held that the court
Of Indiana never had jurisdiction of
Mrs. Gilert, and that the proceedings
there AZ to her were void, as the prin-
c,ple Of law and of natural justice de-
cared that no person should be bound
by judgment without being heard.
1t, therefore, followed that the defend
ant had no legal justification in cohab-
ltatng with any other woman than
the plaintiff, his lawful wife and the
facts OF such Capitalization being clearly
established, the Judge had no choice
but to direct a decree Of divorce.-N.

ArRocIous MURDER IN ILtiMous-
Posi- MoRIEM EXAMINATION BY Cox
oNER Edmund l.. War
rem, resident Of Venice, a small vii
lage about five miles from this city,
lying on the Edwardsville Plankroad,
vas discovered dead, in the woods,
some twenty yards from the road, by
two or three children, while at play,
on Tuesday evening last. Mr.. Warren
for the last five years has carried on
&c char ,al business, at which he has
amassed considerable fortune. On
Monday evening he left his house in
apparently perfect health, for the pur-
pose Of watching bis coal pits through
the nigh, according to his regular
halt. He was not seen again by his
friends until discovered dead, as al
ready stated.
On Wednesday, Justice Squires held
an inquest on the body, but for good
and sufficient reasons we will omit
publishing the verdict Of the jury on
that occasion.
Yesterday the body was brought to
St. Louis by the friends Of the de-
ceased, and at their request, DR.. Bois
Iiniere performed post-mortem exam
ination. After an examination, extend
ing through some five hours, the DR..
arrived at the conclusion that the de-
ceased had been foully murdered, that
he had been attacked by more than
one person, and that the marks upon
his face and body indicated that he had
commended stoutly against his foes. Ii
is said that about a month ago he had
difficulty with some persons, whose
names are withheld for the present,
and it is supposed that they are the
parties instrumental in his DEATH

furnishes happy instance of a graceful
recognition. Fifteen years ago, Major
Il, who was felow-passenger with

bound European packet began the recital
of story to them, in which he was inter
rupted, and, no opportunity occurring for
its conclusion before the termination of
their passage, the voyagers became sepasa-
ted at New York, and remained SO until a
day or two ago, when the Major waited up
on his former acquaintance to welcome
them to Washington. The first greetings
over, Mrs. Chestnut. with smile Of pleas

A PLEASING Unconstitutional
evening yesterday, we witnessed .
little incident exhibiting the preJom-
nance OF the better feelings and SYM
pathies without ostentation-a rare
case nowadays As a genteel we'll
dressed lady was passing along Fulton
street, she observed a couple of little
girls with tattercd garments and shoe
less feet. She Immediately beckoned
them to her side, and without a word.
taking them by the hand led them into
the store of Mr.. Bevillc, No. 1875 Fulton
street, where she had each fitted with
a pair of neat and comfortable shoes.
and sent them on their way homeward
rejoicing, the JOY beaming forth on
their youthful countcnances seemingly
being mirrorcd back in the gentle face
OF their kind bencfactress. What
devotee Of Mammon would not have
given dollars without number to have
felt the peace Of mind and gladness OF
spirit enjoyed by this benevolent ady:
and yet how cheaply was this happiness
purchased.-N. Y. News.
