MATRIMONIAL ALLIANCES
A singular Case-A Man Seeks Two Divorce,

II
The St. Louis Republican has the folloMipg:-
A slight diversity occurred yesterday in the
monotony of the numerous divorce cases which
are being brought in the Circuit Court. On the
25th of July man named Charles Masschelein
filed suit for divorce from his wife, Mary
Masschelein, to whom he represented he was
lawfully married in Milw aukee on the lst oftNo-
vember, 1859. The lady before she was mar
ried was Mary Varenberg. The husband states
that he treated her with extreme Kindness but
that on the 9TH OF November-one week after
their marriage-she abandoned and de-
serted him. II appears that Masschelein be-
coming dsconsolate at his virtual state of single
blessedness, and thinking that his first wife was
on the 18th of May, 1861, in st. Louis county.
He continued to live with his second wife until
Saturday last. Yesterday Mr.. s. NJ. Taylor,
attorney, filed petition on his behalf in which
Masschelein asks to be divorced from her. He
charges her with cruel treatment and rendering
his condition intolerable. There were two
children born of the marriage-Colette, eight
years, and Alice, three years. He asks to have
the custody of them. The Christian name of
the defendant in the two cases is Mary. The
Mr.. H. lB. O'Reilly appeared with a
petition for divorce on the part OF Mary Mass
chelein No. 2. He did not file it, however, but
determined to put in cross bill. Yesterday,
also, Emile Simenskie filed similar petition
for divorce from her husband, Julius. The
parties were united in matrimony at Donaldson
vile, La, on the Goth of December, 1858. De-
sertion on the 1st of March, 1865, is alleged.
Plaintiff prays that the custody OF their six
children may be awarded her, and that her
her. Jachemiah VI. Baldwin is another appli-
cant who desires to be divorced. He was mar
ried on the 10th of January, 1866, in the county
of Henry, Ill. He states that his wife, Laura

advancing from Germany upon Paris:-1. By
crossing the French frontier between Strasburg
and Luxemburg, and then advancing in direct
line on Paris. 2. BY crossing the Swiss terri
tory situated below Strasburg, and marching by
the valleys of the Seine and Marne on the capital.
3. By movement from the north, passing the
fortress of Metz and reaching Paris by way of
the valleys of the Seine and Marne. 4. By ad-
yancing through Belgian soil, in a direct south
ern line through the valleys of the Oise and
Aisne on Paris.
The first course is regarded as military i'm
possibility France being protected on the
east by the great natural defenses of the Vosges
mountains, the Moselle river, the Ardennes
mountains, and the River Meuse, supported by
many fortified places, among which is the
stronghold of Metz: Dsmissing, then, any
speculations which this route may suggest, we
arrive at the second line of advance toward the
French capital. If in this case the Prussiaus
were to violate the neutrality of Switzerland
and attempt to advance upon Paris from the
southeast, they would find themselves con-
fronted by the fortress OF Lyons, which has
been strengthened and rendered very secure
since the period of the first empire. Before ar
irving at that point the invading force would
have to capture either Belfont or Iangres both
OF which occupy commanding positions on the
ground through which an army advancing from
Switzerland should pass.
The third route is the most feasible and con-
sists, in military phrase, of turning the for
tresses on the northeast frontier, including
Metz and then by continued successes arriving
on the river Marne, from whence there is no
formidable obstacle to an advance towards the
immediate neighborhOod of the capital. But
an invading force could not, on account
of Metz and Strasburg, wisely adopt this
course. The French army, If defeated, could
take refuge in Metz and thence harass the rear
of the invaders, who would be open to similar
attacks from Strasburg and places of less i'm
portance. The fourth route, by way of Bel
gium, is secured by defenses which the reverses
of 1914 proved more imperatively necessary
The French calculated that even if an enemy
should arrive in the vicinity of Paris her fortf-
cations are practically impregnable. Thirty
years ago, under the administration of NJ.
Theirs, these defenses were completed, the pro-
ject being regarded with special favor by Louis
Philippe, who took an enthusiastic interest in
Notifications. Another resource is found in the
population of Paris, now numbering 1000, 600,
who, by acting in concert with forces operating
in the rear of the invaders, might overwhelm
them. Such was the hope of Napoleon ], but in
the altered circumstances OF his time it proved
impracticable.

GREAT ENGINEERING WORK.
The st. Clair Flats ship CanaI-PFoxress Of sh {

The 81. Clair Flats Shlp Canal-Proxrese Of the
Work.
The Detroit Free Press, in describing the
work at the st. Clair Flats Ship Canal says:-
The scene presented at the canal is one of
great activity. No less than six steam barges
are employed, five steam pile drivers, three tugs,
and large number of scows, while three hun
dred men are engaged in the work, and with
the docks already built, quite little town is to
be seen. The entire length Of the cut is about
10000 feet, of which little over 1000 feet re-
Quire protection by docks upon both sides. These
docks are forty feet wide and built in e sub
stantial manner, so that it is thought that they
will effectually Withstand the force OF the waves
Nearly all the dockage has been already finished
The mud dredged from the channel is dumped
between the inner and outer breakwaters and
the intention is to SOW grass seed upon the SOIL
in the expectation that the roots penetrating
will hold 1t more firmly together. The channel
is already passable for vessels, but is not
dredged to its full depth in all places, and
as the work is still going on, OF course it is
not yet opened TO general use. II is 10 be
dredged so as to give thirteen feet OF water
in all parts at low water, and with the
present stage OF water there will be fifteen
feet The channel is three hundred feet
wide, and runs nearly south, the head beginning
in the old channel, but instead of the tortuous
course pursued by that the new one is as
straight as is possible TO make it, thus saving q
distance of three or four miles, and substituting
for the dangers OF the old channel a route which
will be safe at any time or in any weather. As
erroneous reports have been in circulation as to
the cost OF the work, Mr.. Brown wished our re-
porter to state that the whole amount so far ex-
pended was $350,000, and when completed i:
will be at an expense of $3.50, 900. 1t was begun
three years ago, and when the magnitude OF
the work 10 considered, IL will be seen that
energy has marked its prosecution.

ever pecuniary charges this arrangement may
involve.
Article s. His Majesty the Emperor of the
French shall raise no opposition to a federal
union of the Confederation of North Germany
with the States of South Germany, excepting
Austria, and this federal union may be based on

Stntes.
Article 4. His Majesty the King of Prussia, on
his side, in case his Majesty the Emperor of the
French should be led by circumstances to cause
