do nothing but set type he manages by con.

A Doa-SToRY = A lady residing in
Campton recently owned dog, which be-
cause of age and inGrmity had ceased to be
of use. One day She remarked to laboting
man connected with the family that she
would give half dollar if be would take the
old fellow off out of the way and kill him.
The servant promised to do SO if he might
have the dogs skin to make therefrom, for
his own use and comfort, pair of gloves At
this stage of the conversation, the old dog,
who had been lying quietly on the earth,
arose, and giving the cOuspiratOrs look,
more in sorrow than in anger, left the house.
On rise of ground, not far away, he stopped
and gave liugeti6g gaze at the honse and
vicinity, then plunged into the woods, never
to return He never was seen or heard Of
afterwards. 1t is supposed that he commit
ed suicide.

Divorces TS 0HIo.-The Cincinnati Gazette
has IN interesting condensation of that portion
of the report of the Ohio Commissioner of Sta
tstics for 1865 which relates to the number an
character of divorces. 1t says:
The whole number Of divorces ia this State
reach the number of 837 in ore year. This, at
the present population Of the State, is one to
three thousand persons, and one divorce to &c of
The annual number of marriages. 1t is not a
very pleasant thought that when we lock upon
twenty-six couples OF young married people, we
know that one Of these couples must be diyorc
ed. Yet such is the state of facts.
The causes Of divorce described in the re-
vised statutes Of the State to be 1. Another
wife or husband living 2. Wilful absence for
thee years. g. Adultery 4. Impotence 5.
Extreme cruelty, which includes gross neglect
Of duty and habitual drunkenness. The divorces
Of other States are likewise recognized, which
oftentimes gives rise to frauds.
To divorce parties for three years wilful alb
>sence, is in many cases to egalize fraud. 1t may
be said that neither the wife society are ben
Gifted by keeping vicious or vagabond husband.
But if a husband or wife, especially the former,
chooses to take that mode Of divorce in this i'm
meHse extent Of country and various States, be
can do it at any time. By residing in any of
four-6fths of the American States for two or
part ct the husband, at the request of the hus-
band or wife, while the other party is perhaps
lamentiug his absence, and utterly innocent of
any offence.
The statistics show that divorces were granted
for the following causes
Adultery.
Absence ...-.......'..... L96
Cruelty and neglect. 220
Drunkenness. t.........,........~...... s.
Fraud. "
This table in one particular fails Of giving the
true result. Only IS cases are put down as
caused by drunkenness but that was the true
cause in double that number, because the trial
of the cases in court shows that Drunkenness
has been a main cause of cruelty and neglect.
1t is little curious that while the crime Of
adultery is very difficult 10 prove, there should
be no less than 276 cases of open adultery proved
in court. II shows great abandonment Of char
deter on the part of portion of the community.
Il Is not less curious that the majority Of these
are in counties where there are no large towns.
