A CURIOUS matrimonial affair has re-
Gently transpired in Brooklyn. Ten years
ago a couple, recently married, moved
from Boston to the City of Churches,
where the husband set up in business and
prospered. His business at his Office was
better than at home, for his married life
was unhappy, and about five years ago
the parties managed to secure divorce
They gradually lost sight of each other,
and during the past year each of them
married, and each to a person who had
been divorced. The two husbands were
thrown together, without knowing their
real relations to each other, and few
weeks ago the one who had married the
divorced woman invited the other home
to dinner. Imagine the embarrassment
when the happy husband introduced his
wife to his friend. Both were too well
bred to have scene, and so the dinner
passed off somewhat frigidly, but with no
actual unpleasantness The recipient of
the dining courtesy invited the other to
go home with him soon after and partake
of family dinner, little thinking, as it
happened, that he was to return the COM
pliment in every particular. 1t turned
out that each had married the divorced
spouse of the other, and it was more salts
factory to them to know that each was
entirely pleased with the arrangement.
So much for the intricacies of matrimony.

Sad Disappointment.

Though it IS not to be expected of the
defenders of the constitution in Vermont
that they will achieve anything like a
numerical triumph next Tuesday, we do
reckon with great confidence on such
handsome gains for them as will serve
for an index of the final result when the
country votes in body in November.
The result in Vermont will establish the
fact ofthe tendency everywhere else
Boston Pest, Aug. %.
True. Which way is the tendency ,"
Tomorrow Vermont holds her cleo
ton. The democrats and conservatives
have worked with will to secure con-
siderable gain on their last years vote,
and we are confident the result will show
it. Where the dominant party rules by
majority two to one, it Is not to be eX-
pected that such heavy odds will be over
come in one year, or two; but healthy
gains, at a time when the demands of
country are infinitely superior to those of
party, will show that the people are at
work in good earnest. Should the dem
ocracy make round improvement of Il
thousand or two votes, that will sound
the note for their brethren of Maine TO
advance OH the 18th and the long roll
will then beat from one end of the line to
the other, presaging grand Union victo-
ry.-B0StOn Post, dug. 81.

The VERMONT ELECTION is
confessedIy little in Vermont election to
excite the interest or enthusiasm Of the
democracy. The state, since its forma
ton, has been in the political control of
enemies of the democratic party. The
average epuRblican majority for the past
ten years has been about twenty thousand.
OF course, in a state so little affected by
the tides of national politics, or even by
exciting local issues, as Vermont, it
would be extremely rash TO expect other
than republican triumph. Still, oise
may reasonably expect >oms crumbs o. cone

past two years has been as follows:

ic, II ,292: Radical majority, p, S2j.
lS67.-Radic;,l, 3l,G9l; Democrat
ic, 30: Radical majority, 20, 1874.
The figures indicate a decrease OF the
radical majority OF 2,GiI, and a decline
in the radical vote Of , ,432 in IL singh
year The change Is clearly attributable
to republican apathy or indifference, con
,equent upon the criminal impolicy Of
congress toward the South in particular
and the country generally. The same
cause produced similar, though much
more marked : results in nearly every
state which held an election last year.

The election in Vermont yesterday, a

radicals. \ larger vote than that OF last
year was polIci by both parties the IN
crease being greater on the radical than
"a the democratic side. The democrats,

would be in no degree indicative OF the

better than they did four years ago: the
