A Ciucl Threat for ThHI. ste.
DhcNS

1t is said that Thad Stephens threatens
to go over to the Democrats, unless the
Republican members of Congress keep
straight up to the hair lire of the radical
policy. Thismay be a very terrible threat,
so far as the democratic party is concerned,
and 1t strikes us as a most un ust one for
what right has he to punish the demo-
cratic party for the shortcomings of his
own friends? If, however, Thad. really
leaves his party and Journeys over this
way, VIC hope and trust that he will make
up his mind to stop when he reaches what
delights to call itself the war democracy.
That is convenient half way house be-
tween the high and radicnt hills cf pure
Democracy and the black marshes Of Abs
olitionism, where we think Thad. Stephens
might find himself quite at home, in the
society Of such consistent patriots as John
Van Buren, James I. Brady, editor of the
New York World, and their associates,
who have acted so brilliant role in the
tail Of the Black Republican Kite for the
last four years. These gentlemen are i'm
pressed with the idea that a new party
must be formed, chiefly, We suppose to
provide comfortable front seats for them
selves, and as old Thad. likes front seat
and won't sit still anywhere unless he has
cne, We beg to suggest that this uneasy
type of Democrats, and such Republicans
as Thad Stephens, jim Lane, and Sum
ner, night form a coalition which would
be mutually agreeable, while, at the same
time It would relieve the Democratic par>
ty of a threatened burden which might
keep it demoralized for quarter of a
century to come.-N J, Dan Book.

Ee judge that 1t will, probably, reach two hun

submit, that the legislature should do something
10 diminish rather than increase that number
A wholesome restraint upon this rush OF ar-
plicints tor divorce, would be prov sion that
Ine divorce should be-in law phrase-a ntnsI,
ct thOro, divorce from bed and board, but
WHICH leaves neither of the divorced parties at
liberty to marry again. With such a modE-
cation of the present laws relating to divorce,
habltual drunkenness perhaps might wisely be
added TO the causes already recognized. But
unless some such Proviso is Incorporated, either
in;o this DILL or the general law, We think The
legislature ought not TO multiply the causes OF
divorce, and thus multiply the divorces 10 u
hereafter granted in this State.

Divorce.

Senator Reed, of Washington County, has
inirodu bill into the legislature, adding
habitual drunkenness to tie causes now recog
nizsd by sta ute IS sufficient grounds of divorce
There is no doubt but habitual drunkenness is
as serious a domestic evil, brings as much
pain, discomfort, and sorrow to families,
some of the causes of divorce now included in
the statute. But cur laws respecting divorce
are already too comprehensive and the Su-
preme Court now separates nearly as many
couples as our ministers unite. Auy lawyer,
who has had much practice in divorce cases,
understands that, as often as otherwise, divorces
are obtained because the husband or wife wishes
to be married to some other hfh nity." The
facility with which divorces are procured rem
ders this method of selecting new partners no
. difficult one, while it brings profitable usi
ness to the lawyers, and takes up much OF the
valuable time Of the Court. To be sure, the
business has not become quite so much prosti-
tuted in this State a. in some other states,

The Elections.

The elections in Pennsylvania, Ohio, lodi

from $4,000 to 10000 msjority, and gains two
Congressman, Henry L. Cake and John

Dennison, is to be contested by James Arch
bald, Republican. The Legislature is Largely
Republican, which makes sure the election OF ,
Radical to take the place of the renegade Cow
The majority IN the popular vote is Ii
tie less than last year, owing to the govern
ment colonizing Copperhead voters in the e.
vy-yard, but the gains in Congress make VI
for this. The delegation from that state just
elected, will be eighteen Republicans to SIX
Democrats.
Ohio is all one way on the popular vote, the
majority being from 10000 to $4,000. We
have, however, probably lost one Congressman,
Columbus Deiano, "a Johnson man early last
session, but afterward voting with the Republi-
cans-who is defeated by small majority, by
Gen. George w. Morgan, Democrat. 7 he
Ohio delegation 10 Congress will be sixteen
Republicans and three Democrats.
In Indiana the Republican ms have lost one
Congressman, Holman. Democrat, being elect
81 in the Fourth District over his Republican
competitor. The Republican majority is about
$1,000 in the state, the Democrats gaining
about 5000 in Indianapolis alone. The north
ern part of the state shows Republican gains
The delegation in Congress will be eight Re-
pubicans TO three Democrsts.
Iowa is Republican Overwhelmingly as
Vermont. TIE popular majority is above 3d.
900, and the entire Congressional delegation,-
SIX members-are, of course, Republican.
