We hear with great satisfaction that both
forks or prongs Of the Eastern division Of
this great werk are being resoluteiy pushed
forward. The Southern .(Kansas) fork,
conneeting with the Missouri Pacific at the
mouth of Kansas River, is now in full op-
eration to Lawrence, and will soon open to
Topeka, or beyond, and is to he pushed on
to Fort Riley next season. We hear that
its completion to this point will save the

Of Common Pleas is still in session, Judge
Mcllvaine presiding.
On Monday night the case Of Boyd Us.
Boyd, Tor divorce, was concluded. The
Court was engaged three days in hearing
this case, aud, as the parties had stood very
high iu society, the Court Room was crowd
ed all the time, considerable Of the audience
being ladies. The plaintiff was Rev. Saml.
BOYD, formerly pastor of the Presbyterian
Church, at Bridgeport. The prosecution
was conducted by Messrs. o. j. Swaney
and R. X. Chambers--the defence by
Msssrs. BIS. Cowen and G.. W. Hoge. -
Mr.. Boyd sued fer divorce-eharging his
wife with wjlful absence and gross neglect
Of duty. AThe defence set up a counter
petition against divorce and claiming ali

very searching cross-examination. Monday
was occupied with the arguments, and upon
the conclusion on Monday evening Judge
McIlvaine rendered his decision. The

Court said this was one Of those cases
where the law contemplated alimony, but
he~ould reserve the amount to some future
time.
Judge Mcllvaine rendered very able,
clear and lucid opinion. He went over the
whole ground in controversy, and pronoun-
ced against Mr.. Boyd IN toto. A letter that
he had written 70 Mrs. Boyd after the
separation the Court regarded as very OBJ
jeetionabie, and said, especially after that
letter was received, she could not return to

satisfaction by the large crowd in attend

Since writing the above, we learn that
the Court has fixed Mrs. Boyd's alimony at

The Presidents Remarks on
demonstrations.

New York. Oct. 23 The Herald's
special, from Washington, 22d says the
substance of President Johnson's remarks
on the subject of reconciliation in the South
ern States, during a recent private inter
view with him. is given, with the Presi-
dents approval, by Maj. General Stearns,
of Massachusetts.
The President, in reply to the remark
that the Democrats claimed that he had
gone over to them, intiMated that the Dem
ocratc party had discovered that he was
ia advance of it, and that il was now try
ing to come up to his standard, and he
hoped it would succeed in doing so He
recommended his doctrine that notwith-
standing the so called secession of certain
States they were never out Of the Union,
but by theirrebellious course they bad for
feited their, civil government. to reconstruct
the machinery of which, asasoou as practi-
cable, he considers the chief duty of the
time. This he says cannot be done in a
moment, but such great and happy, pro
gress is being made in it that the results
sometimes appear TO him like dream. =
He did not expect to forever deprive of
their former civil rights. even a majority of
those who were excluded IN the amnesty
proclamation, but he intended that they
should sue tor pardon aud thus realize the
enormity of their crime. He is in favor of
allowing those negroes who have served in
the army, those who can read and write,
and those who are possessed of certain 9th
er qualifications, to vote, but does not think
it is polite, or that he has the right to force
these conditions on the white people of the
South, though he believes that they will
ere long concede this principle to the freed
men. The President also favors basing
representation in Congress on the number
ofqualified voters, instead Of in proportion
| as at present.
