Ballot.
The first ballot was taken with the following

Joseph r. Lyndall. ....:.::::.':.;;;......:.. 0
During the taking of this ballot numbers of
the delegates refused TO be seated in conformity
with the rules ane there was confusion and
disorder worse confoanded. When a bogus
delegate was discovered he was run out uncere-
moniously and ANONYMOUSLY, and several free
fights were iLdulgek in on the floor of the con-
Vention.
hut MANY of the delegates were stubborn and
refractory, and apparently disposed to make all
the disturbance they could. The proceedings
were most disgraceful and demoralizing.
Insulting and threatening remarks were made
TO the President, and gang of Unlocking
roughs gathered In front of the platform. Some
daring spirits mounted the stage and ii was for
a time doubtful If there would not be bodily
danger to the ofneers.

NEW JERSEY.
Attempted wife-Murdsr In Trenaon.

Elizabeth Ann Corson, in Trenton yesterday,
charged that her husband, James Corson, had
attempted to kill her. The man and wife were
parted little more than two years ago, and
about three weeks ago the wife says that the
husband came to her house. kissed her, and
asked her to go and live with him in Baltimore.
AS the wife owned the furniture, she consented
to the request of her husband. After she had
given consent she says he returned to the house,
and putting his arms around her neck as If to
embrace her, put some kind of drug near her
face which had a smoky smell.
He then left, and with difficulty she went up
stairs, after which she fell down and became
unconscious, in which state she remained some
time. She kept waiting day after day for him
to come and go to Baltimore. She received o
notice to leave her house, and commenced to
pack up her furniture when to her horror she
discovered that he had another woman at his
boarding -house-a Mrs. Mary Bachelor from
Philadelphia-whom he had intended to take to
Baltimore instead Of his wife. On inquiry she
found that her husband alleged that he was
divorced from her, and trading on that divorce
was about to adding the crime of bigamy to
his other transgressions.
The Mayer granted warrant for the arrest
of James Corson. About year and nine
months since, James Cerson saw his wife
walking with a man named George Creamer,
and fight ensued, which resulted in a commit
ment to Court and fine on Creamer.

CONNECTICUT is apparently about to make
an effort to reform her disgracefully loose
system of granting divorces, as a bill has been
introduced in the Legislature in compliance
with the recommendation of Governor
Jewell, which, if it becomes law, will pre-
vent the land OF the wooden nutmeg makers
from being any longer the favorite refuge of
those who hold that marriage is nothing more
than partnership that may be dissolved at
pleasure. There ought certainly to be enough
decent people in Connecticut to influence the
Legislature to promptly pass the bill in ques-
ton, but when it is passed their efforts for
the maintenance of the sanctity of the mar
riage tie should not stop there. ALI who are
opposed to the free-love doctrines of Mrs.
Victoria G. Woodruff and her followers should
earnestly agitate for constitutional amend
ment that will place the power of passing,
uniform marriage and divorce laws flor the
whole nation in the hands of Congress-. The
want of uniformity in the laws of the differ
ent States is the principal cause of trouble at
present, and a proper reform can never be
brought about except in the manner indi-
Gated.

agreed to keep silent even If he does not
advocate the treaty. The average Johnny
Bull, who would rather do anything in the
world than apologize, is pacified by the Times
with the delusive assurance that free trade is
making such rapid progress in the United
States that the profits on English manufactures
will in short time be SO great as to more than
counterbalance any modification caused by
the treaty, and the recalcitrant Canadians are
soothed with the assurance that the ratifca-
tion Of the treaty by the imperial government
will not prejudice their interests 50 far as the
claims relating to the fisheries and other
questions at issue between the United States
and Canada are concerned. So the treaty will
become a law for the two nations in spite of
the malcontents on both sides of the Atlantic;
and the people of the United States may con-
gratulate themselves upon having achieved a
substantial victory by means of the policy of
patiently awaiting for the proper moment.

TEE British Government is very anxious to
have the treaty of Washington ratified, and it
must afford the people of the United States
an immense amount of satisfaction to see the
determined efforts that are being made to
stife all opposition. Some of the. Tories,
who, in spite of ample evidences to the con-
trary, have unlimited confidence
in the ability of their nation to
fight all creation with success,
find the treaty bitter pill to swallow, but
the men who really understand the situation,
and who know that if the treaty. is not ratified
it viii be impossible to conclude another one
like it with the United States, are determined
to have it accepted at ali hazards. Poor old
Russell, who was, more than any one man,
responsible for the Alabama controversy, of
course felt bound to protest against the work
of the Joint High Commission, bat hav-
ing entered his protest, he grace
fully submitted to the inevitable, and
consented to oppose the treaty
no further. Mr.. Disraeli, as the leader of the
Tory party in the House Of Commons, has
