resist what was represented as raid
of New York desperadoes to abduct Ui
ct d''ais the insane prisoner. On ar
irving at the place, the lady found the
villagers up in arms, and the brother
of her husband, who has been instru-
mental in dccoying him from home,
and preventing his return, present,
and determined to dispute her right to
an interview with her husband. I'm
der such circumstance, of coursershe
had to succumb, and the rural force
extemporized to resist, renamed In
triumphantvp possession of the field.
If the matter stood as the foregoing
facts would leave it, therrights of the
claimants for the custody of the gen
tleman would be easily decided but
strange and embarrassing comp 6ca-
ton arises from the fact that, just in
tlle midst OF the contention, a new
actor IN the drama appears a,pon the
scene. After q disappearance of some
thirteen years, d,1ring which nothing
was heard from him, the lady's first
husband turns uR The law of.the
State en- the subject provides that if Il
husband deserts his wife, or from any
reason remains absent beyond the
seas for the space Of five years, and
she hears no tidings of him in the
meantimr, ;,l ne, she is at Liberty to marry
after such a long snd silent absence,
the husband is dead; and, if he is not,
he certainly ought to be. Any man
who deserts his wife, not only for five
but for thirteen. years, and fails to
communicates with her in any way,
has 10 right to turn up then, 0d GER
tainly none whatever to interfere with
any domestic relations She may have
formed in his absence. AS the second
marriage was privately conducted.
there may be an attempt made to deny
its existence, but there is no doubt
that legal and valid lnalaiage cere-
mony was perf5rmed.
The case, AS We have. intilnated at
the outset, Is one Of the strangest on
record, and it will be observed by the
readers of poetry that the particulars
correspond almost literally with the
incidents of Tennyson late epic of
Enoch Arden. In the poem, a hus-
band GOES off,. and long afterwards his
wife m;,rries another. The ta1ant
husband returns to find her in her new
home, HIS own place supplied by I,
sub>tit:fte: He has the deeency to
keep shady; and as the 'unitics of the
;apoam demanded that some of the dra-
ln;atis person:e must disappear, he
dies OF, a.ld leaves his wife and her
new husband untlisturbed Such is
the denouement, as wrought out by
poctic;sl justice, and if the present
case evdF comes before jury, we pre-
dict tlfatathen verdict viii harmonize
with the decision of the Muses..

The Stars orc in the Quiet Deep.
The stars are in the quiet deep,
A thousand sanity eyes Of light,
Sweet watchers of thy maiden 0leep,
That bring thee visions thro' the night;
Foe not q breath that sweeps the skies,
With tones that take the gentle ear.
But from some holy mansion flies.
To soothe the dream Of one so dear.
Silent, as through
Arches of blue, =
Darts the bright meteor cleaning and gone,
So do they rise.
Bright in the skies
Blessing for angels what mortals have won.

And blessings, for thy heart, from mine,
Even now are speeding on their way:
The sacred principle of things,
In all we know, that Heaven. makes far,
May we'll command . thousand wings
To watt and hallow Loves own prayer.
Softly as goes
Dew to the rose,
Bearing the precious balns gathered above,
SO do they bear,
Blessing and prayer,
Cheering the happy heart chosen Of Love!

PepSaS,

tits we'll known that large class Of pro-
tessional and other business men are now,
under recent acts of Congress. required to
take annual licenses. These licences expire
on the first Of May in each year. Persons
whose business requires licenses, should
make immediate application for the same at
the office of J. II. Baruhill, Eso., L. S.
Assessor for this District.
Among the recent changes in the license
law are the following
Common carriers, or persons or compa-
nies doing an express business, whose gross
receipts exceed 5000 per annum, IRE requi-
red to pay license Of $40.
Insurance brokers must pay license of
$25. Any person negotiating or procuring
insurance in behalf of another, and recei-
wing l)hS therf5r, is deemed an insurance
broker
Persons nr companies employing Others
i'll mining Ior coal or other minerals, when
their annual ircome exceeds $1,000, and
when not licensed as manufacturers, must
pay SO license.
It is provided in the law relating to ped
der 5 license, that no one between the ages
Of 20 aud 70, who is not enrolled for militia
duty, Or exempted for physical disability,
shall be entitled to a peddIer's license. If
any pcddler fail to prodoce his license, when
demanded by an officer, such officer may

EX-PresilGNt Buchanan and
Secretary StatsfGga,

Ex-Pre>ident Burhanan has thought the
n. Y. Fast s Misrepresentation Of the his
tory Of the Cincinnati Convention worthy of
the explicit contradiction and exposure -
While the venerable Pennsy lvanan is deyo-
ting himself to the truth Of history" we
would suggest that lie enlighten the public
on another point Of more practical impor-
tnncc, upon which he is equally well quail
fed to speak authoiitativtly
Secretary Stanton is in the habit of claim
ing credit with the enemies of Mr.. Buchan-
an for having intinldated him so greatly as
to prevent him from ordering Major Ander-
son out Of Fort Sumter, as according to the
rcdoubtable Secretary was proposing to do.
This charge is one which the ex-pIcSidcnt
will have no difficulty in rctuting, if he
deems worth his while; but the point which
we repeat, is Of importance, is, the alleged
conduct Of Secretary Station himself, four
years ago, in aiding and abctting the leading
traitors in the inception Of their treason. -
Unless we a,e greatly misinio,med, Mr..
Buchanan will have no difficulty in showing
that, even so late as the first battle of Bull
Run, Secretary Stanton adhered to his oig-
inal conulctions in favor of secession and
treason laughed at the discomforture of the
federal troops, and dcrided anew the posi-
bility of coercion. Pits. Post.
