FOREIGN LABOR EMIGRATION TO THE SOUTHERN
| STATES, it seems, has decreased in remarkable
ratio during the present year, over twelve thous.
I and emigrants going there from Castle Garden,
New York, in 1868, and but few over seven
thousand conserving take employment these
States the present year. The actual figures for
the sixteen Southern States, including Delaware,
Yves, Virginia and Missouri, through New York,
are : 10 1868, l2,704 ; in 1869, 1861 decrease
| 5,O43, or over 40 per cent. Doubtless the new
| German steamship lines from Bremen to Balt-
more and New Orleans have diverted the passen-
ger traffic from New York to considerable ex-
tent, but with the largely increased immigration
at New York, it is thought the South should
have held its own at least. Various reasons are
given for the decline the fact that labor and
crops there are not such as the European emf
grant is accustomed to that his accommodations
and fare are no, as good desirable, &c; but il
is very probable that the unsettled condition of
the political status 81 the South has good deal
to do with il. The whole inning grafton al New
York for the eleven mon hs of the present yea I
ending December lst, has exceeded that of the
previous twevemonth by about So, 000 bringing
the number TO upwards of 25l 900 This num-
Der, it is calculated would give an addition to
the money capital of the country OF about $l5,-
900, 900.
WOMAN SUFFRAGE The Legislature OF Wy
oming Territory has passed bill giving women
the right aud hold office. This will be
regarded as great triumph by the advocates of
woman suffrage. And if tas measure cannot
be passed through the Legislatures Of States,
why all women who desire the ballot may go to
Wyoming and vote. This territory will be
looked to by the STRONG minded" rs the prom
ised land. Where equal rights enjoy ed by
all When women cease to he wives and moth |
ers, and takes their places upon the plane
AS men, there shall favo their advent into the
political arena but not before. To invite con- |
test between the two sexes, for political power,
would be Immensely disadvantageous as well as |
degrading to woman, with no good to man - |
We shall look with interest to Wyoming to see |
how the new system works.

more effectual, Petruchio laid down an
excellent programme for Rareyizing Kate
where he said -
II will attend her here
And woo her with some spirit when she comes.
Say that she rail why then I'll tell her plain
She sings as sweetly as a nightingale.
Say that she frown I'll say she looks as clear
AS morning roses newly washed with dew.
Say she be mute and will not speak a word,
Then I'll commend her yolubility,
And say she uttereth piercing eloquence."
Petruchio was a genuine woman-tamer,
who used his art not unkindly. Of
course there are incorrigibles, whose
husbands have no alternative but a study
of the book Of Job, and a strong faith in
compensative immortality. With them
there is no rest. When we read in the
papers of brutal violence towards wives,
we are often too sentimental in condemn
ing the husband. We may not take into
account the unbearabIe provocation to
which he is often subjected. A story is
told of an actor who had to repeat Tobin's
celebrated piece of claptrap, 1.-THE man
who lays his hand upon q woman, save"
WCs II OCCuILCQ W uIlii dG UiO IOuiou
that he had whacked his wife about half
an hour previously, in the presence of
the green-room, and so, in order not to
appear inconsistent, be altered the text
thus The man who lays his hand upon
a woman, SAGE when she deserves it," &c.
We should be sorry to allow this freedom
with so noble o modern toast, but un-
questionably there are times when it's
literal Interpretation must seem unjust
to labourers whose wives pawn the child
ren's clothes and waste the money in
drink. Into this branch of the subject,
however, it is not now our intention to
enter. Disputes between man and wife
in which the smoothing-iron and the
dishes are employed as arguments, are
beyond the cooler region of tifs. 1t is
we'll when the tiff only resembles a lovers
quarrel, and is established, perhaps, by
the lady, for the express purpose of a
delightful making-up. On such oeca-
sions a good husband is expected to show
his appreciation Of the luxurious misery
he has gone through by a box at the
opera or a new dress. He not only
dances, but very properly pays the piper,
and he has the consolation of ref1ecting
that any future amusements of a similar
nature must be similarly purchased. AS
Selden says, eff a man keep q monkey.
shall he not pay for'the glasses it breaks z"

A NewSecretary Of the Navy.

Hon George ". Robson. appointed
by the President Secretary of the Navy.
to fill the vacancy occasiOned by the
resignation Of Mr. Bore. Is the son of
Judge VIM. p. Robson, of Warren Co.,
New Jersey, VIII" was a leading Wing,
and long and prominently connected
with the politics Of the State.
Mr. Robeson entered Princeton Col
leye in 1sl4. and upon graduating. in
1s47. he entered the law Office Of Chief
Justice Hornbfower Of Newark. Upon
concluding his legal studies, in 1850. he
was associated in the practice Of his pro-
fesson with Hon. A. c. NJ. Penning-
ton. Subsequently removing to Cam
den, he was appointed by Governor
Ward. Attorney General OF the STATE,
which position he resigned for his new
stud,es
Mr. Robeson, is about Al years Of age,
and holds high rank in his profession.
TO his fine legal qualification he unites
a general knowledge and practical abil-
ity which gives promise OF efficiency
and usefulnes in his new position.
Mr.. Robson is u strong and decided
Republican, aud on all questions OF ua-
tio,ial policy is in entire accord with the
party which supported the election Of
General Grant.
I'D Itis curious coincidence that the
only position ever held in the Cabinet
by Jerseyman has been that of Secre-
tary Of the Navy. In 1923 Samuel l..
Southland was appointed Secretary of the
Navy by President Monroe, and con.
tinued in this position during the all
ministration Of John Quincy Adams
In 1884 NJ. II. Dickinson was appointed
by President Jackson, and he continu-
ed in Van Buren's Cabinet for more
than year Both were distinguished
men, and added to their national repu-
tation by their administration of the
