a gentlemen in London recently
resisted the payment of a bin for
goods which his wifo had purchased
without his authority. lie resisted
payment chiefly on the ground that
the articles thus purchased were
luxuries, not within tho ordinary
scope Of the duties Of wife, and not
necessary to her station in life.
Among these were gold pencil caso,
q guitar and double scent bottle.
The Judge before whom the si,cp
keepers brought suit for payment,
decided the articles named to bo un.
necessary. In his mind they were
useless Injuries to the woman who
had contracted for thcir purchase.
He gave it as his fiat that, "thc law
is not bound to render any assistance
to tho growing luxury and dcgcncra-
cy of the agc," and the hus band, in
obedience to this decision, kept his
money in his pocket.

Immigration Letters from Commodore
NJ. +. Maury.

W. r. MdurJ,
Commodore NJ. T. Murray has lust
issued an interesting circular to tho
farmers Of Virginia, setting forth
the wonderful uudeveloped resources
Of the State and tho advantages of
Immigration. To encourage immi-
migration. he proposes tho following
plan, whi,h is deserving the at
teution of land owners in that
State:
hato already indicated concert Of
action and joint contributor. Let mo
illustrate Suppose the farmers in
ollie Of the counties should club to.
gethcr and aim TO get two hundred
we'll to do immigrants, with their
families--say 1000 souls in ALTO
come from abroad and settlel among
them. Suppose thaf they were to
offer forty acres Of land on long credis
say seven years, without interest
ON condition that the new COM
ers would settle on it and improve
It.
Let us calculate the profit and loss
In tho first place the wealth Of the
country would be increased 81 100000
by the presence Of these 900 new
comors, and the old residcnta would
have to pay taxes OH ono million of
dollars less than they now do and
this, including county, State, Federal.
School and other taxes, count up to
not little SUN, as you we'll know.
In tho next place tho new oomer
would pay the taxes Oh your forty
acres, and relieve you Of burdens to
that extent.
Again these 1000 new comers would
srend In your county in money--or
in service the equivalent Of money
something like 100000 tho first
year, aud smaller sums annually for
several years, until they could gce
their farms fairly undcr way, and
themselves sufficiently provided to
becolt,e ptoduoers, and Of these OK.
pcnditurcs tho land owner would got
the lions share.
Finally the new comcrs, by their
presence, their labor and their i'm.
provemeiltd, would greately enhance
the value of real estate. 1t is by no
means an over estimate to assume
that by the time tho first pa ymont fell
due, after this long credit, tho value
of your own lands would bo increased
to the extent of several dollars al
acre.
Indeed, if tho plan were adopted
by tho land owners Of the State goncr-
ally, and successfully carried out, you
would soon SEQ real estate in Virginia
changing hands in figures at which it
is now held in Delaware, Pcnnsylva-
MIA, and Now Jcrsey. 1t would not
be unreasonable for ono Of us here to
expect to SEQ tiat day. Each of the
ninety nine counties Of the State in.
Producing during the nUst sevon years
two hundred familios from abroad,
averaging fvo souls aach, Why, in
round numbcrn, that would be the in
PRODUCTION of 100000 new citizens
into the State, and an addition Of
$l50,0o0,000 to it's wealth. These
people, paying their own passage,
would come from the old country to
Virginia direct thus placing to your
doors, at their own expense, empty
ships already to carry your produce
back at low rates Of freight, and 80
you would have tho boon Of direct
trade which you have coveted SO
eagerly and so long:

LONDON, Aug. 27.-The official report Of
Bszsine acknowledges the French loss at the
battle of Resonville of 10000 men.
The Times this morning contains another
editorial deplorlng the decsdence of the
French. The article says that France in
her hour of trial has no head, Paris no
leader and the division of power must soon
cease, the emperor having retired from the
administration of the sovereirnty. The
assembly ought to be supreme.
Gen. Trochu is in extreme disfavor and
fails to secure the popular support antici.
pated upon his accession to the direction of
affairs IN Paris. He is distrusted by the
ministry and the Empress and NO confidence
is placed in him. He represents the second
power of the nation of the ministry with an
uncertain tenure of power whist the popu
lstion are capable of bursting out at
moments notice into flame OF irresistible
passion.
The Times sums up the situation at Paris
as being critical and liable To a spontaneous
ou,burss of terrible violence.
The Times correspondent from the vicinity
of Metz says it is not spprehensive of any
decided attempt of the French to break
through the Prussian lines now rapidly
enclosing that city.
The Times believes that the Prussians
works are in no danger of assault by q
,ortie from the works within or by the
precipitation upon their rear OF q combined
attack from the armies of Marshals Bazsine
and McMshon, even should.th latter form
junction Of forces to the northmard of Metz.
Representatives of France, England and
Prussia have signed the ratification of the
Belgian treaty.
The Times in a review of the resources Of
Prussia, states that three armies of reserves
have been formed to await events in France,
one on the Rhine, under Duke of Mecklen-
burg Sehwsin, one a. Berlin, under General
Carstune, and one in SIlesia, under General
Torresburg.
The corr es pondent of the Daily News
telegrapha from Paris a dispatch confirming
the report of the arrest of Madame Lascher
de la Pagerie, upon the allegation of COM
municating important intelligence TO the
enemy. The News adds that the lady is in
duress.
BERLIN, Aug. 27.-A note has been ad-
dressed from Berlin to oil the envoys of
Prussia in regard to the French treatment
Of the flag of truce sent into their lines at
Metz, asking cessation Of hossilities 70.
the purpose of burying he dead, and which
truce was refused and the flag insuted. Also
some cccurances at both Toul and Nerdun.
The Prussian government therefore declares
its resolution to cffer no diplomatic nego-
siations to the French people until the
Empire is declared al an end.
The intelligence from the Rhine at kehl
| represents the bombsrdment Of Strssburg
| as proceeding with vigor. The Prussian
| trenches have been advanced close to the
walls, and new guns are being constantly
placed in position.
An attempt is being made which now
promises success, to divert the course OF the
river Ebl, so as to drain most of the water
surrounding the city.
Strasburg lie now completely invested and
has no communication with the rest Of
France.

Burglary.

On last Saturday night the tailor shop
Of G.. C. Nolan was broken into, and
goods to the amoun of $500 distracted.
The thieves cut wi window panes from
the back part Of the building, and enter
ed through the hole. The window was
next to Robert Gray's saloon, and per-
SON we're in the saloon at the time the
entrance is supposed 70 have been made.
On Tuesday night an attempt was
made about midnight to enter the cloth
ing store Of Messrs. Z. Thomas & Sons.
The dog on the inside gave the alarm
and awoke the family, who occupy part
Of the same building as a dwelling.
Some Of them arose and in descending
the stairway the would-be burglars heard
the noise and ran away.
No clue 10 the rascals in either case
Fervent hopes are entertained that when
they die they will inhabit a cline too
warm to need clothing.-NIIes IHdePend-
