In an important divorce suit in Chicago.
where the wife applied for q divorce upon the
ground of blows inflicted upon her person py
the husband, the Court laid dow the law az
follows:
"The law upon this point is not a subject OF
dispute. Undoubtedly there some men.
and II is TO be- hoped there are very many. IN
whom the reverence for womanhood is a senti-
coming from a woman, stopping short OF i'm
minent danger TO life or limb. could extort
from them a blow. Certainly not if the or
fender is a wife and the mother of their chll-
dren. From a field of combat where a woman
r the opposing party there is no dishcEcr in
retreat
"But while We may censnre a husband who
allows himself TO be provoked by his wife 20
blows, the law OF divorce is not administered
upon these principles.
"The common law right Of the husband te
chastise the wife has been justly repudiated in
all the American courts. Yet no court has dls-
solved the marriage tie at the prayer of the
wife. because Of violence provoked by her
own misconduct, even though such violence
should proceed TO blows, a. was very truly
said by Sir William Scott: afterwards Lord Sto-
well, IN W Warning VS.. Warning. Phillim, l32.
he security Is in her own power. She has
only 10 change her conduct other wise the wife
would have nothing to do but 10 misconduct
herself. provoke i'll treatment, and then COM
plain. Still, even in cases where the wife has
been al fault, the violence Of the hu sband must
rot be out of proportion 10 the provocation and,
II go, she Will not be entitled TO her decree"

THE WRIT OF Quo WARRANTO.-This pro-
cess, under which il is proposed to oust Mr.
Stanton, is Of English origin. Upto the time of
Edward l, the King Of England was i'm the
habit OF calling upon persons holding fran
chises to produce the charter by which they
held them. If they could not satisfy the royal
commissioners their franchises Were taken from
them without more ado. The action of quo
r0nt0 was instituted to check abuses of the
royal prerogative. 1t issued out Of Chancery
The person against whom il was directed was
summoned to appear before the Kings Bench,
or justice " in eyre''-that Is, riding his CIR.

franchise or Office.
The original action has gwen place to what is
called "an Information In the nature Of a quo
pdrrdnto." This, although in it's form crirni.
nal, is really a civil proceeding. Originally, if
the defendant could not make good his rieht
he was fined for usurpation. At present NO

case, the person who takes the initiative rs

OREGON INDIAN WAR CLAIMs.-GeneraI
John Z. Wool has written the following letter to
Father Beeson relative to the Oregon Indian war
claims of 1884, which have recently been pre-
sented TO Congress for payment, amounting to
about three million dollars, in addition to three
million dollars which have already been paid:
TROY, Feb. 26, 1c68.-Dear Sir: Your favor Of
the 23d instant was received by me this morning
relative to Oregon claims for Indian outrages.
The Oregonians have no just claims for out
RACES committed by Indians. They have already
received from the United States five times as
much as they We're entitled to for the outrsges
which they committed upon the Indians and
which were the causes of the war.
If you or any one else desire to learn the
cause of the war in Oregon, could refer you
TO the report of Col. Cram, called for by Judge
Olin (residing in Washington when he was in
Congress, believe in 1861 and 1o62, also the re-
ports published in the Senate doc No. 16, 3;d
Congress, and 35th Congress, House of Repre-
sentatives, doc. S.
In conclusion, 1 have only to say that the war
was caused on the part of Gov. Curry and his
coadjutors, without the slightest Justification.
and, as was reported at the time, to enrich the
whites and make political capital for the Gov
eTnOr. Yours, very respectfully,
JOHN f. Wool
