Our jail for sometime has been.
empty, save the presence of our o,rn
Taylor Bass, who, it seems, has taken
rooms for the season. 1t is to be
hoped the criminal docket will
continue to be light, for we have had
enough of cases for grand and petit
larceny, murder, ct cetera. There is
another Improvement in our courts,
and that is, we have less number Of
divorce cases on docket, and if our
Legislature will still be blind to the
terrible influence that our present d.
vorce laws have upon society, it is to
be hoped good people everywhere will
frown down this system OF legal en-
dorsement of adultery in our midst.
Weare pleased with the proposed
Congressional apportionment bill, but

DISCUSSING THE IssUE.-The great evaporation
Of the clique that defeated in the Union State
Conven ton, induced the belief that they had con
templated swindling schemes of greater ma gnitude
than those they charge against their successful op
ponents. Their subsequent efforts TO place their
candidates in the field would seem TO confirm this
view of the situation. 1t is not altogether without
precedent, as will be seen by the following:
"The Pensacola Florida. Observer saws that the
report that s3i0,o00 had been dug up from the
graveyard of that city, where it had been buried
during the war, and removed to parts unknown,
came near terminating in a tragedy. Some fifty or

have spirited the treasure away, and would have
lynched him but for the iaterposition of the Sheriff

as the old Pennsy lvania farmer lost FIVE hundred
dollars 10y not raising corn enough Ordinarily the
defeat of such schemes occasion but little disap-
pontment as the attack IS generally renewed until
1t becomes successful; but in the present instance,
like Pensacola grave yard treasure. it appears to
have slipped from their grasp forever as according
TO their charges, the Triumphant clique will lay up
on the State ABOUT all that its backbone can sastain
