were offered to make the time ten hours,
and to make the bill apply only in cases

but both of these were voted down before
the main question was reached, as was
also the amendment, offered two or three

A Woman Kicks Her Husband Out of
Bed, and He Leaves for Parts I'm

From the owosso (Nieh.1 Press, April Isl
Last Sunday morning in one of the many
wood-colored tenements in this CITY, a
man, wife, and child were taking a morn
ing snooze, when the child waking I'D
began to play with its fathers whiskers and
finally stuck its fingers into daddy's eve,
whereupon daddy demonstrated by shak-
ing the child Just a little. This matter of
shaking the baby aroused the slumbering
wrath of the female portion of the estab-
lishment, who pitched into her said hus-
band, claiming that he was a brute, a seal
awag, a coward, and a thief-thst he
wasn't fit to live outside of a Jail. These
pleasant remarks were retorted to by the
husband by some considerable swearing,
and tauntingly reminding her that her
virtue was not what it ought to have been
before he married her. Here the wife put
in again, claiming that her character had
always been good until she married him,
and adding something by way of a elinch-
er about the chastity of his mother, and
the legitimacy of his birth. At this point
the debate became so warm that the bed
would not hold them both, and after a few
lively turns at kicking, the woman sue
ceeded in depositing her better half on
the floor. These complimentary remarks
continued until the husband, becoming
Disguised, bid farewell to his fair spouse,
and departed to parts unknown.

Emigration from England Great
Rush Of the Golfers and Iron Work.
ers 10 the United States,

From the London Times, April 81
The mania for emigration has again set
in among the golfers and iron workers of
South Wales, and the effects of the move
ment are beginning to be seriously felt,
more especially by the colliery proprietors.
Those who are induced by glowing de-
scriptions to leave constant employment
and good wages, and break up their homes,
to seek new spheres fer their labor in the
States, are principally hardy, industrious
men, who from long experience have be-
come what may be called skilled GOLFERS.
These are the men that the district can III
afford to spare, especially at the present
time, when the coal trade is SO active, and
their departure in such numbers will not
only prove inconvenient, but a positive
loss, TO the employers of labor, inasmuch
as it will take the hands brought in to sup
ply the vacancies caused by the exodus a
very long period to become proficient in
their new ~avecations.
In addition to the large numbers that
have emigrated since the fine weather set
in, upward of sixty families have left
Aberdare for New Ysrk a few days since,
and Others are preparing to follow from
different parts Of the district.

Particulars Of the Explosion on the
Steamer kelsO.

FORTRESS MONROE, Dec. 8, 1S66.-An-
other startling steamship disaster to be
added To the already painfully cumu-
lative list, occurred at half-past three
o'clock this morning, through the ex-
plosion of the steam drum of the steam
er Thomas Kelso, by which five per-
sons were killed, and eighteen or twenty
badly scalded.
The steamer left Baltimore last even
ing a little behind time, having on
board between one hundred and thirty
and one hundred and forty passengers
and large load of freight, including q
drove of mules. When the explosion
occurred she was three and half miles
to the northward of Wolf Trap Light,
thirty nine miles distant from here. II
was very foggy at the time, but this
had nothing to do with the disaster.
The noise of the explosion awakened
and alarmed every one. For time the
prevailed. Mingling with the wild
screeches of the wounded and the ter.
rible braying of the mules, nearly all oil
whom were badly scalded, and the
madly kissing steam permeating the
length and breadth of the steamer,
came the alarming cries that the vessel
was on fire and sinking. To allay this
tumult and satisfy such of the passen.
