NEW MILFORD.

The reception given at Treats Hall last Thursday evening by the ladies of the Con gregational Church for Mir. & Mrs. Bonar, was well attended, notwithstanding the rain, and was 8 very enjoyable affair. About two hundred people, including the pastors and several members of both the Episcopal and Methodist societies, were present, also number of visitors from abroad. An elegant collation. was provid. ed to which ample justice was done, of course. The company separated about half past ten, and all seemed greatly pleas ed with the evenings entertainment, and expressed the wish that such reunions might be much more frequent.
 Your printer, last week, made me speak of Mir. Bonar as man of prominent ability. The adjective should have been pre-eminent.

Married women.a Property.

We give on our first page the debate on the Married Woman's Property bill, which occurred in the Legislature week before last. It is in no small degree mortifyine | to find radical measure of that kind, one which nearly every intelligent opponent oi woman's suffrage comedies to be just and necessary, opposed by the leading Repub. licans of the House, and supported chiefly by Conservatives. We had hoped to see the bill passed to a vote, and some amel- ioration of the odious laws now in exis- tence effected, this year; but the indica tions now are that the whole measure will be defeated.
 While we regret that the amendment proposed by MT. Seymour was carried, we cannot but admit that the taking away of property rights already vested in hus. bands is of doubtful constitutionality. Those rights began in injustice, and the passage of the bill would have left it for the Supreme Court to decide just how far the original injustice is beyond the reach of remedy: which is exactly where it seems to us that it should be left This amend ment having been engrafted on the bill, however, we see no reason for the aban- donment of the measure. If, as is very likely, the husbands s curtesy rights are his vested property, the sooner the unjust bu- siness is stopped, the better. Any future General Assembly can pass retroactive statute, if constitutionaI; but only the present one can give the women of Con- necticut, marrying in 1870, control of their own property, if such a retroactive stat ute is unconstitutional! .- a
 The unconcerned manner with which our legislature confesses that the existing denial of rights to married women is an outrage, and yet suffers that outrage to pass unredressed, shows what an absurd humbug the conservative cant about wo- man s indirect political influence is, practical ly. Suppose that 6O.OOG or 10000 Conn. roters were suffering from some such man. ifest, inexcusable injustice, does any one imagine that bills for it's remedy would stand in danger of indefinite postpone ment? 8-.- -......
