terday morning rendered his decIs-
ion in the case wherein W. L. Pier
cey, former Registry Clerk of the
Post Office in this city, is charged
with abstracting letters and embez,
zeling money. A very thorough tri-
al was had, and very large amount
Of testimony heard. Mr.. Busche, one
of the parties arrested with Mr.. Pier
cey, was discharged for want of evil
dence during the progress of the trial.
The Commissioner yesterday deci-
ded to hold Mr.. Piercey over in the
sum of 81, 800 BAIL. which was given,
and the accused released for his ap-

In rendering his decision the Judge
said:

THE MARRIAGE LAw.-Attorney
General West, after quoting the
marriage Act, passed last winter,
says:
aTheproviso requiring female per-
sons under the age of twenty-one
wears to first obtain the consent of
their fathers respectively, was, as 1
am informed, q blunder of the En-
rolling Clerk of the House. The
bill as it passed the two houses read,
females under the age of eighteen
years As the law now stands it is
clearly inconsistent with other pro-
visions, and in some cases operates
as restraint upon marriage. It
should be disregarded by the officers
whose duty it is to execute it, and
treated as ifit read eighteen instead
oftwenty-one years.

~ Boston has been crowded the
past week, and in fever of excite
ment. They have what is termed a
Peace Jubilee monster exhibition of
vocal and instrumental music-ten
thousand voices and over one thou
sand instruments helping out the cho-
rus, including park of artillery, an
wills, DC. A building, capable of ac-
commodating 10000 or more of peo-
pie, was erected specially for the occa-
sion, and was filled every day of the
exhibition, which lasted the whole
week, closing with sacred concert on
Sunday evening, in which ten thou
sand children from the public schools
participated in the chorus. The like
has never before been known in the his
tory of the world. Though of such gi-
gantic proportions, and withal new, 1t
was complete success.
