the adoption of paid Department, whose nem-

great saving in cost, is unqueSt"n"d, and we
arc equally confident that it will DO no loss

Indiana divorces may serve the turn Of Indi-
anans, but are very poor reliance for New
Workers. 1t seems to I've settled that one Of our
citizens can't take his ncighbor's wife clandes-
timely to an Indiana tavern. get her divorced,
marry her, and come back here to live in the
next street to her discarded husband; or, if he
does, New-York jury will not justify him in
doing it. Such being tho law, our easy-going
people should make a note Of it, and, if they
want an Indiana divorce, 60 and live in Indiana.

the principal part of it:
