The Democratic State Convention of Wiscon-
sin, held last week, was n curious collection of
men of fading generation, of obsolete ideas
and quite barren of modern notions. The only
new thing attempted proved a failure-this
was squaretoed reputation, as set forth in their
last resolution, viz:
Rcs0red That we are In favor OF the prompt payment
OF tho public debt In cgalteudcr currency the same on
burden of taxation that idle capital may be forced into
industrial pursuits ana that there may be one class OF
currency for all classes of citizens.
This was something too much of good
thing, although reported rs regular plank in
the platform, and in order to get at it the
resolutions were voted upon separately. When
this came up, member proposed the follow
ing slightly different idea:
Resoired That In favor OF the full and puncfuol
discharge OF the national obligations aud debts precisely
on the conditions and terms which they were CON,
racted aud the faith of the Government pledged 10 ia
creditors W 80
This was carried, and the repudiators retired
from view. We don't often find occasion TO
commend the action of Democratic Conyen-
ton, and so improve this chance to give the
Wisconsin concern credit for manly act.

Mrs. Theresa Yelverton, the wife of Major
Yelverton formerly of the 1th Hussars British Army
IS stopping at the Albcmarle House for a few days
previous to her visit to Boston This lady is well known
the reading public both sides Of the Atlantic as
victim OF the unjust laws Of Great Britain relating TO
marriage Mrs Yelverton twice married to her hus
band. Ireland and Scotland. The Legality
OF the union he denied and brought suit for divorce
several years ago. The Scotch marriage decided to
be i'll ega but with all the OF the learned counsel
for the plaintiff they unable to inyadate the
riage performed under the Irish law. The case was
finally taken the Lords who have recently refused to
put husband under oath for the that
he may criminae himself! From the time he began the
suit for divorce he has been living with another woman
not his wife, an oense against morality and decency for
which he dismissed from the army as being unfit to
associate with gentlemen. Mrs Yelveron proposes to
employ herself while in this country IN giving readnsa
from the British and American poets for the purpose OF
defraying the heavy expenses she is daily mourning In
prosecuting her appeal before the House OF Lords This
undertaking she is induced TO attempt at the solicitation
OF influential friends here and in England who predict
for her this country fully equal TO that which
has rewarded her efforts I'm Great Britain.

1t lamentable spectacle to see men whose
best days of manly maturity and mental power
were devoted to the cause of freedom, DEPART
ing from consistency in their old days, to the
disheartening Of those upon whom the better
example of their early life might exert an
inspiriting influence. Lord Brougham all but
apOlogized for the Shareholders Rebellion, to
the amazement of every one who remembered
him as the eloquent and uncompromising
champion of liberty; and Earl Russell now
declines to attend banquet in celebration of
the new Reform bill, because he is uncertain of
what may be the effect of Lord Derby's lean
" in the dark" These painful alterations can
not be explained on the ground that age has
tendency to chill enthusiasm for freedom, for
we have many examples to the contrary. Must
we look for the explanation of them in some
natural defect of character, developed 10y cir
cumStances!

By the terms of the charter of the Soldiers
Messenger and Dispatch Company, the Board
of Health shall determine the number, size, and
location of the booths or stands which the
former body is authorized to erect upon the
public streets. The Board of Health refused to
take this action, under the apprehension that
it would be in effect licensing the booths and
stands, which would be contrary to that section
of the Tax Levy which declares that no Board
shall license membranes Of the streets. JUS
tice Clerke of the Supreme Court yesterday de-
cided that the Board Of Health could not refuse
to comply with the demands of the Messenger
Company. 1t is, therefore, probable that the
stands will soon be erected, and the multitudea
who throng our sidewalks will be correspond
ingly incOmmOdcd.

By dint of Sunday labor the managers of
the Belt" Railroad Company laid track
across the Battery to Castle Garden, and
chuckled yesterday morning at the astonish-
ment of those who found all the parapherna-
liza of a horse railway where they had been
accustomed to see smooth sward. But the
Councilmen, a few hours later, directed the
track to be torn up, the Railroad Company to
be sued for damages, and the streets, walks,
&c, to be restored to their former condition
Let us hope that this order will be carried out
more strictly than was a similar one in the case
OF the attempt of the Dry Dock and East
Broadway line, last year, to cross Broadway
from Ann to Fulton-sts. The track was
taken up but the pavement left in
a wretched and outrageous condition.
and so it remains to this day, in defiance of
comfort, safety, and the Common Council.
How much of yesterdays action in the Council
is due to consideration of the public good
and how much to kind remembrance of the
whose designs upon the unwary emil
grants would be greatly interfered with by

The Reform League has broken ground in
Ireland. On the evening of the Sd inst. a mass
meeting was held in Dublin, the Lord Mayor
of the city presiding, at which resolutions in
favor of manhood suffrage and of the formation
of local organizations to agitate the question of
equal rights for all were unanimously adopted
Among the noteworthy incidents of the great
gathering was the reading of q letter from
John Stuart Mill, in which he avows his con-
victiOn that lreland's only hope of complete
justice lies in the transferring of large share
of political power to classes who are not under
the influence of landed or church prejudices.

Another letter is addressed to the Street Com
missioner by the Citizens Association, wherein
that official is reminded not only of the large
amounts of work which have been given out
from his office without inviting the proposals
required by law, but also that the Assoeia-
tion has been unable to find exposed for sale
any of the French copying ink at 81 per bottle
or sponge cups at $50 per dozen, which the
Commissioner had found necessary for his sta

The negroes of Richmond yesterday cast
their initial vote in favor of the railroad i'm
provement of Virginia and the South. Of
course, the railroad loan having been carried by
virtue of the cOlOred vote, the opponents of the
measure declare that they will contest the cleo
ton. This was to be expected They would
contest anything to which the negroes con-
tributed, except their own incidence. 1t is
claimed that the negroes are not registered
voters until the registration lists are finally
closed. How would this principle work in
