An act to enlarge the rights OF married
men has just been passed by the Bit-
iah Parliament; and, from its general tenor,
We infer that the hour Of finhIemancipa-
ton for the male ssx is slowly, but surely,
approaching. Heretofore, man who
married woman in debt became liable for
her debts contracted before marriage. One
Of the humo1s of the Fleet Prison was the
marriage OF "fast" Countess to tha
prison barber, who was somewhat disap-
pointed 10 6ud that the sole motive of
his inamorata was to transfer her debts
to him, in order that he might
take her place, whilo she. went
forth free. The new law
tepeals these expressions, and provides
that, hereafter, the husband who pays the
debts contracted By his wife after mar
riage shall be regarded as having suf-
ficieutly atoned for his weakness. More
over, under the old law, married wonan's
separate property could never he charged
with her husbands support, even though
he came upon the parish. II is now en-
acted that, if woman of property has a
husband, she must relisve the parish Of
tho necessity of supplying his cold victual.
Rhe sanae property is charged also with the
support Of her children. A husband is
also permitted to sue his wife, luxury
which is still denied The aggrieved males
in this country. Thus, one by one, arc the
shackles falling from an interesting class
of victims, ike Sir Charles Nloraaunt,
whose function it has heretofore been to
pay the bills, amuse the children, and to
feel an amiable and friendly interest in
their wives hirtations.

4 very sad occurrence 10 reported at Rio de-
Jauc,ro. namely, tue burning Of an enigrAut

Of this terrible catastrophe are given by the
Captain Of the French bark Adele Louise, who

On its wso from Genoa for Mouteyideo, with

that on the a1st Of July, about p. NJ, being
attexst Of Rio de JAnaiEo, the Adale Louise
sighted the Bar1avina In tlaues. soma dis

down. 1t WIS almost impossible to render as-

eight persons, including captain and mste.
The schooner M2ry, from London to Aus

that =" there is no such thing as a Federal

would be the result? The fraudulent votes
IN the city of New York alone might have
resulted in the illegal choice . Of
thi,ty-dvc Illegal Presidential Electors
for that State, whose votes, tt:might be well
knoso, would determine the choice OF
President and Vice President for the whole
country. To allow the. fraudulent votes to

We believe we hare said enough to show
that The powerto vote for members of Con-

The truth is leaking out in regard to the

with the Germans in the great duel tha,
has been fought. A Paris despatch ex-
plains part of the cause. II says tI1at, of.
late yearx, the civil list Of the Emperor has
not been large enough to provide for the
lavish expenses Of his court, his largesses,
histoadies, hisbribcd emissa5ies, paid spies,
and multitudiuous claequcrs hired to keep
up the love Of imperialism among bis SUBJ
jccts, whose azdor for CmsArism was cool
ing of. and required constant stimulation.
About ten millions of dollars were
therefore abstracted from the reye-
nues to. supply, those corrupt
demands, In addition to the Ave millions OF
salary given him by the French Par
1iameut, and the millions voted as .salarics
or pensions to his numerous relations,
This amount Was taken from war app.e-

larceny, the report says, was concealed by

that State and the Nationnl Govanmant,
upon the question whether the act Of 1870,
for the punishment, IN United States Courts,
Of persons who vote fraudnlently for
member Of Congress or Presidential Eec-
tor, is constitutional. The World con-
tends that il is unconstitutional, becanse,
as il alleges, The right to vote, even for

hence are not punishable in The United
