Connubial war of washbowl is thus shown
to be fearful, by the New York correspondent
OF the Boston Evening Gazette:
A fashionable couple, up town, married but
not mated, 60 the story goes, quarreled few
mornings since, and the irate wife. by advice
of her parents, has sued for divorce. The
case is only noteworthy from the ridiculous
cause of the quarrel. One morning, il seems,
the husband washed himself, as usual, in the
bowl used by both but the lady for some
reason refused to use it that morning, and
rang the bell for another. 1t was brought,
when the now indignant husband flung it vio-
lently to the floor, breaking it to pieces, the
wife thereupon called him hard names, when
be locked the bedroom door, and insisted that
she should use the bowl. She vowed that
she wonndn't, 'fif she wen with dirty face fol
week" he swore that she should and so
filing the howl, be seized her bands, and using
sufficient force, washed her face for her. Ht
| then unlocked the door and went to his bust
ness, while she went to consult lawyer, anC
the suit was commenced. If incompatible!
of temper were sufficient ground for divorce
/ we should require divorce court to attent
exclusively to dissolVing the marriage tie.

SINGULAR DKvHoPMENTs-''M Murder Will
out."-On the evening of the I'd of Novem-
Der, 1862, man named Strawbridge, work
man at the rolling mill in Harrisburg Pa,
left his home, telling bis wife that he was go
ing to place of amusement. She awaited
bis return, but as he failed to appear, search
was instituted the next morning, resulting 10
finding him lying insensible on the river bank.
He died soon after being taken home, and the
cause of his death has ever since been invol-
we'd in mystery. The Harrisburg Telegraph,
Of Tuesday, however, explains the whole af
fair. as follows:
An old lady named Paul has called upon
District Attorney Herr, stating that young
lady, who recently died in our city, confessed
upon her death-bed that she, in company with
lover, were promenading on the river bank
on the evening preceding the day on which
Strawbridge was found that her lover
knocked Strawbridge down and robbed him,
supposing that he was dead; that she was forced
to swear that she would never reveal the MUIR
der, but her conscience compelled her 10
state the facts before departing this life. The
alleged murderer is in the army, and if guilty
it is hoped that some means may be found by
which he may be made to suffer the penalty
of his crime. The case is a singular one
throughout. Quite a sensation has been ere
ated here by the revelations related to the
district attorney.

Endsnos of Rebel Decay.

Mr. Mansfield, State Statisticiau, enumer-
ates the following circumstances as evidences
Of rebel decay;
Ist. Their entire dependence now, is upon
conseription fol, men and impressment for
provisions. They now take one-tenth of all
produced, by force
2ud. The late speech of Howell Cobb and
JEFF. Davis recent manilestce. Both ofthese
documents are the confession OF Criminals
Cobb says they have nothing to depend upon
but the army. The speech of Davis is still
more melancholy. If all the men up to sixty
in the rebel territory can be conscripted, only
I37, ,l30 will be obtained. Three hundred
thousand men is their extreme number
Eighty thousand will be needed to defend
Richmond; fifty thousand for Charleston, viii
mington, North Carolina, Florida and Mobile
Thirty thousand are beyond the Mississippi
One hundred and forty thousand remain fol
Longstreet, johnson and Polk, to defend Geor
gia, Alabama and Mississippi.
In March our effective army will exceed
anything we have ever had. Three hundred
thousand new troops will be in the field. Tn
negro troops will soon be sufficient to garri
son all the Southern forts. Sherman an,
Grant will soon divide the remainder Of th
Confederacy, latterly. The wounded tige
fights with fierce courage or despair, but h
can spring but few feet either way. Th
avenging sword is ready to fall.

The Proposed Amendments to the Militia
Law.

We understand that the Military Commit
tee of the Legislature propose to introduce in
a day or two, bill amendatory to the Mill.
tia Law. The changes proposed are excellent
and of great importance. This bill will
completely wipe out the present farce of the
enrolled militia. Accepting as a fixed fact
the Worthlessness of the present militia system
of this State, it, in effect, abrogates it, SO far
as the enrolled militia are concerned, the re-
suit being for the benefit of our truly valuable
volunteer militia. Should this bill pass, the
volunteer militia will permanently be fixed on
4 most substatial basis. Every white male
citizen, between the ages Of eighteen and for
ty-hve will be required to do service as a SOL
dier 10 a volunteer organization, or pay the
commutAtion fee of three dollars per annum
into the treasury of the county in which he
may reside, for the benefit of the volunteer
militia of that county. For the collection Of
these fees in full ample provisions are set forth
ia the bill. Thus, the volunteer militia-now
germ full of vital strength, and of fair pro-
portions, will be cultivated with the aid of
men and a full treasury, to degree of
strength and efficiency, which will command
the respect and confidence of all, and enable
Us to throw along eur borders, at a moments
warning, aspleDdid army, completely drilled,
clothed, and equipped to resist any invasion.
The military fund, which each county will OBJ
tain from the communication, will enable us to
do all this. The bill further provides that
when any regiment in any county shall fall
below the minimum strength required, draft
shall be made among the people of that eoun-
~an
strength. There will be camp ofinstruction
in every county, instead OF general camps al.
so, a military fund in every county and each
regiment will have its fund, made up of fines
imposed upon its members for any non-attend-
ance, 1t is confidently expected, that, under
the provisions of such Militia Bill, our volun-
teer militia system will be made efEcieRt.--[

FoRE1eN.-The loDg-threatened war in
Northern Europe has finally broken out
Hostilities were inaugurated on the I'd instant
by the combined Austrian and Russian forces
attacking the Danes near Missunde, on the
Schlei. Since that time there has been con-
siderable fighting, IN most of which actions
the Danes have been worsted and compelled
to retreat before superior numbers. The
losses on both sides have been considerable,
but the allies being the attacking party we're
the most serious sufferers 1t was supposed
England would aid the Danes in case they
were attacked, but she shows no disposition to
do so, and ifshe keeps aloof and Russia and
France pursue the same course, general war
may be avoided, and the contest viii proba-
bic be brief one resulting in the failure oil
the Danes to retain possession of the coveted
territory. The state of affairs ct home has sc
entirely absorbed the attention Of the Euro
pean powers that they pay but little attention
to American affairs, remarkable ilustratior
of which fact is found ia the failure of ths
Queen of England in her late speech to Par
| lament to even allude to this country or the
struggle in which we are engaged.

It it rumored, on the faith of rebel refugees,
that the Governor of Georgia has ordered the
removal of all citizens from the portion of that
State lying west of the Chattahoochee river.
This would vacate some twenty-five or twenty
six counties of Northwestern Georgia, with
population OF about 10000. It is stated
that these people are commanded to remove
east of the Chattahoochee under the penalty
of the destruction of their estates. The object
of this is said to be in order to make a esert
waste of that region, in the hope of thereby
preventing the approach ofthe Union armies.
The Court at Halifax has decided that the
captors of the Chesapeake were pirates, acting
in tnat commission from JEFF. DAVIS and
cowardly villains, and has ordered them to be
delivered to the United States authorities un-
der the provisions of the Extradition Treaty.
An attempt will de made by their sympathizers
to have them released on hGbeaS corpus for
trying them in the Supreme Court OF the Prov
ince. There are only three Of the gang in
custody, the rest escaping at the time the
Chesapeake was recapured. The action Of
the Nova Scotia authorities from the begin
ming has been eminently just and energetic.
The news from England by the Africa,
shows that the British Government are not
disposed to assist Denmark. The opposition
claim that Denmark had a right TO expect
assistance, and the Ministry were very bitter
Iy attacked. The address to the Queen, how
ever, was adopted without amendment, thus
sustaining the Ministry. The Times assals
the course of Prussia aud Austria, and claims
that the guarantees assured by England should
have prevented them from inaugurating hos
tilities. The non-interference policy had caus-
ed reaction in breadstufs, and prices were
lower
The quota of New York under the last two
calls is $4,000, and of Pennsylvania $4,000.
From 10000 to $4,000 men are expected to
be drafted in each of these States.
Governor HALL of Missouri, has signed the
bill, unexpectedly to the Radi-
Gals, as he has hitherto been classed with the
Oopperheads.

LETTERS TO PRISONERS OF WAR AT RICH
MoND.-Tbe following letter which we find in
the Albany Argus, is of general interest:
Norfolk, Virginia, Jan. 25. 1864.-Sir I
am receiving frequent letters from relatives of
our prisoners of war at Richmond. forward
all fag-of-truce letters and money so received
promptly. It is important that the direc-
tions on such letters should be ex-
plicit, or they fail of being delivered at
Richmond, for lack of sufficient description.
Thus, a letter directed to John Ad-
ans, prisoner of war, at Richmond, Virginia" !"
would go to Richmond, but the Confederate
authorities do not know where to look for John
Adams as well as they would if there were ad-
ded also, Private, company E, Fourth New
York Cavalry" as the case might be. Iflet-
ters are seut through me, add these parti-
culars to the description on the direction
when the correspondent with me gives it, aud
also the ten cents Confederate postage, when
that is lacking, but if sent through the mails,
the directions should not only be explicit
as above, but there should be enclosed with
the open letter for fag-of-truce a ten cent
United States postage currency note to pay
the Confederate postage. If this is done Gen.
Butler will see that the regular Confederate
postage stamp is obtained and placed on the
letter.
Respectfully, your obedieut servant,

The Columbus correspondent of the Cincin-
natl Gazette, writing under date of 22d inst
states that formidable and daring plot to
escape from the Penitentiary on the part Of
the John Morgan rebel officers confined there,
including a simultaneous movement in the
same direction by the Camp Chase prisoners,
had been detected and frustrated. The plot
had been arranged by Basil Duke, one of the
Penitentiary prisoners who had been paroled
and given the privileges of Camp Chase. but
at his own request had again been returned to
bis old quarters in the Penitentiary. The
plan was to attack the guards on Sunday,
overpower them i! possible, and fight their
way out. On the discovery of the plot the
guards were doubled st the camp and increas-
ed precautions used at the prison, and previ-
GUS to the time fixed for the attempt to es-
cape the conspirators in the prison were seiz-
ed, searched and disarmed of large number
Of knives and other Instruments designed to
aid in the undertaking, which they had con-
cealed about their person. One thousand oi
the prisoners from Camp Chase have since
been sent to Fort Delaware.

INDIANA UNION STATE CoNyENTIoN.-Tbe
State Convention of the Union men of India
ma, held at Indianapolis on the 22d instant,
was one of the largest and most enthusiastic
assemolages of,the kind that ever convened in
the State Gov. MORTON was nominated for
reelection by reclamation, and strong State
ticket formed. The subjoined resolutions
we're adopted by unanimous. vote, those in
structing the delegates to the National Con-
vention to vote for the denomination of Pre-
sident LINCOLN and for ANDREW JOHNSON Of
Tennessee for Vice President, eliciting rap
tuous applause and unbounded enthusiasm
ResolUed, That the cause of the Union de-
mapds of every patriotic citizen the sacrifice
of every partisan feeling of all selfish purpo-
ses, of all private ambition, and that no action
of the Government, whether in accordance
with our views of correct policy or not, can
absolve any man from the duty to render
every possible aid to crush the rebellion, by
furnishing the Government men and means,
counsel and encouragement.
Resolusd, That we hail with joy the iudica-
tions of approaching peace, not by COM
promise with rebels in arms but by COM
plete and utter subjugatiOn to the laws and
Constitution of the United States, and that
we are in favor of the destruction of every
thing which stands in the way Of permanent
and perpetual peace among the people Of all
the States, and full and complete restora-
tion of the just authority of the Union under
| Al, of 4Ia
RESOLVED, That those who persist in their
opposition to the Government in its hour of
peril; who denounce its very act for the pre-
servation Of the Union who refuse to con-
tribute men or money for its support, or who
organize secret conditions to embarrass the
Government, by resisting the laws and en-
couraging desertions, are thereby rendering
the rebel cause more effective support than if
| they joined the rebel armies, and are entitled
to, and will secure the execration of all patri-
otic citizens, to the latest posterity.
Resolved, That now, henceforWard and to
| the end of time, the thanks of q grateful peo-
pie are due 10 the rank and file of the army
and navy, to the officers and men who, on so
many battle fields have periled their
lives in defense of their homes and constitu-
tional liberty, and by their patient endurance
of trials and priyations, by their dauntless
courage and devotion to the Union, have COW
cred themselves with imperishable TenoWn.
Resolved, That in the midst of civil war
for the preservation, of the life Of the Govern
ment, and having confidence in the patriotism,
wisdom, justice and honor Of Abraham Lin
coin, we regard his reelection to the position
be now occupies as essential to the speedy ard
triumphant end of the war, and therefore here
by instruct the delegates to be appointed by
the Convention to represent this State in the
National Convention to cast their votes for
his nomination.
Resolved, That the gratitude of the Ame-
rican people is due to Andrew johnson Of
Tennessee for bis unselfsh devotion to the

Great excitement has been produced in
Lancaster by fracas which occurred in that
city last Saturday, resulting in the death of
two soldiers belonging to the 18th Ohio Reg
iment, and the serious wounding of several
others. From the published accounts of the
affair it appears party of soldiers entered a
drinking saloon in which were number of
citizens, among them John and George See,
father and son, residing a short distance from
the city. A controversy sprung up beeWeen
several of the soldiers and young See, in which
harsh language was used on both sides. Du-
ring its progress the elder See approached
from another part Of the room, and drawing a
revolver fred number of shots at the soldiers
two of which proved fatal. The father, who
shot the soldiers, escaped, but the son, with
whom the quarrel originated, was captured
and brought back by the soldiers, and it was
with great difficulty his life was saved by the
interference of citizens. 1t was feared the
affair would lead to further difficulties, rs the
soldiers and many of their friends were in
tensely excited on the subject.
