A Price Curren, Divorce.

Tho Chicago papers publish the particulars
OF case which came up few days ago in one
of their courts, in which an application was
made by the wife of lieutenant in the United
States army to set aside certain proceedings
taken by her husband for divorce. The evil
dence shows that the parties are from Maine,
but that the husband produced the testimony
OF two witnesses one from New York and the
other from Long Island, to prove that he had
been over year in Chicago, and applied for
the divorce on the alleged ground OF deserion.
The notice of his application was published in
the Western Price Current, and the wife was in
ignorance Of the proceedings until she received
copy of tie decree OF divorce q few days
since. These Chicago Price Current divorce
cases are becoming common, and lawyers in
tlis city and Chicago are said to reap quite a
harvest in managing them. If troublesome
wife is to be got rid of the husband makes his
application In an Illinois court proves resi-
dence by false testimony, publishes the legal
notices in some little local paper that no one
frees himself from his incumbrance. The first
intimation the wife receives Of tle proceeding
is copy of the decree OF divorce, which turns
her marriage certificate into waste paper. In
ordinary cases we should advise wives who
are thus victimized to content themselves and
make sure that they are happily released from
a very bad bargain. But in this particular in
stance we should be well pleased to see the
War Department take hand in the matter,
and, if the facts are as stated, divorce the lieu
tenant from his commission, without even a
Price Current notice, as disgrace to the army
Of the United States

and prosperity we are, however, deeply inter
estcd. Negro supremacy in the COVE, umen. is
not very palatable thing in either seeNion OF
the coantry. Perhaps, indeed, it would be
even more Objectionable here than in the
South, aud may prove dangerous measure at
some future time. Yet such condition 81
affAirs cannet be regarded as wholly impos-
sible, should the negro vote become unit, in
view OF the fact that in all the Southern States
the black voters are largely in the majority
over the whites. Therefore what philanthro-
piss may regard as blessing to certain
class may become source of danger to the
country at large. II the negroes and their
white friends are left to work out their own
destiny they win get along very well, even in
their new condition; but the intermeddling of
political propagandists may breed mischief,
and we hope that there will be no more Of it.

Treasury Misnauaxemeut.

We have another statement from Washing
ton in regard to the purloining of ninety-nine
one thousand dollar bonds from the Treasury.
The frequency Of these occurrences gives
ground for the suspicion that the business of
the Department is conducted in very loose
way. If in any private commercial establish
ment such distractions of money OF important
securities were to take place habitually it
would soon lose its credit. How is it that
with such an expensive organization as the
Treasury possesses similar degree of care
cannot be exercised? 1t is seldom that we
hear Of such violations Of trust in govern
ment departments abroad There must be
something radically wrong in the system on
which the Washington Treasury is conducted.
II is time that an inquiry we're instituted TO
find out where the fault lies.

The Coming Crops.

BY our special correspondence we learn that
the crops of Michigan and Indiana look very
promising, and there will be this year boun-
tiful yield Of the cereals and fruit also. This
appears 10 be the opinion generally expressed
with reference to the other States of our great
West Other proofs are not wanting that the
harvest will be abundant, and foremost among
these is the rapid decline in the price of -four
and the failure of several heavy spectators in
wheat and corn a. Chicago. Very much of our
national prosperity depends upon the value OF
the new harvest; for there are heavy balances
against us in the Old World which demand
either our agricultural products or our gold.
The more Of the former we can make useful in
payment the more healthy it will be for our
finances, which are at present in such an en-
barrassed condition. How much the nation
leans upon the products Of the great West is
here plainly evident This tribute to the agri-
cultural power Of the Mississippi Valley is not
only acknowledged by the Atlantic States, but
by Western Europe, which hangs almost as
much upon the bounty of our valleys as we do
ourselves. Therefore an unstinted yield from
old Mother Earth will be thankfully received
as special gin from Providence, and will
carry joy to the hearts of the poor, who depend
so much upon the price of wheat and corn,
which for the past season have ranged at such
enormous and unwarrantable prices

When the radical politicians conceived the
idea of sIumping the Southern States they did
not probably foresee that the advantages
gained for their party by the ventilation of
its principles among the enfranchised blacks
might result in danger to the country. The
experiment of negro suffrage is in itself
doubtful one. To place in the hands Of
servile race, bringing with them from bond
age only ignorance and poverty, SO vast a
power as the negroes of the South are now
vested with, was al least dangerous measure.
1t was paying too heavy q price for an extern
sion of radical power; and yet it was to this
end that negro suffrage was urged by the
radicals in Congress and pressed to its final
passage. The condition oil society in the South
just now is very peculiar, very unsettled, and
exposed al any moment to violent disruption,
not only from q strife between the races, bu.
from the unbalanced slate of the political
mind upon the question Of reconstruction.
AS a general rule the Confederate soldiers are
reasonable and loyal. Many of them are
enthusiastically in favor of the mild military
rule as exercised by our discreet generals.
They regard it as a safeguard alike against the
Disseminated lower stratum OF white society,
which is still senselessly venomous towards
the government in every shape, and against
any turbulent disposition which may show
itself among the colored people. While the
latter have as yet exhibited no inclination to
misapply their newly acquired rights OF citizen
ship, but bear their honors meekly and rather
philosophically, still IT does not seem wise to
excite in them anticpations that may lead
that race to excess aud provoke jealousies on
the part Of the white people, who are now
kindly disposed to those who from being their
servants, have become their equals before the
law.
Hence the danger Of radical propagandism
in the Southern States; and il is well that the
leaders are beginning 10 see it in that light
and to counsel the abandonment of further
stump visits to that section. The political
affairs Of the South have no interest for US
more than the securing of the negro vote for
one party or another; and that can best be
attended to by the Southern people themselves
| without any interference or propagandism
| from -the NORTH. In Ia social reconstruction

grave one. When the Raleigh trip was IN
dertaken there was n question in the minds OF
many whether il would have the effect of pre-
venting repetition of the same blunders.
The failure of the Impeachment scheme in
creased tho anxiety that was felt on the sub
ject. Fortunately Mr.. Johnson has had the
good sense TO disappoint these aniicipaiions.
He is therefore welcomed back with pleasure,
and may accept the warmth Of his reception
at the various points Of his homeward journey
as an Indication of the general satisfaction Of
the country at his course.

The Morals Of syracusc-The Effect OF Csn-
ycutions.

vcuttOuns
The city of Syracuse ispdly in need of So
cial and moral reconstruction. All the baths
of its Sicilian namesake in its palmiest days,
and all the waters of the fountain Of Areihusa
would be insufficient TO wash its reputation
clean. Salt will not save it. II is the Chicago
of New York, and has become as notorious as
that city of family difficulties for the laxity Of
its morals. In the tragic event Of last week
in Albany oil the actors are Syracuseans. The
lady in tie case is Syracuse lady. The
victim and the assassin, or avenger, or whatever
the popular sentiment may call him. were both
Syracuse men. Similar affairs, although not
always with so tragic a result, are by no
means uncommon in Syracuse, and prudent
travellers are learning to avoid the Central
City as they would plague spot. But there is
some excuse for this. Syracuse Is unfortunate
in having been for number OF years the
theatre OF nearly all the conventions, religious,
political and miscellaneous, which have been
held in the State Of New York. Democratic
conventions, wing conventions, republican
conventions, radical conventions total abs!i.
nence, temperance, spiritual, free soil, free
love, Jerry rescue, woman's rights, bran bread
and Fourier conventions, with scores Of others
have assembled there year after year and
have left their trace in the social life OF the
place. Under such influences how can q
people hope TO escape contamination, and how
can a city, even though entirely made Of sal!
expect 10 preserve good odori
