expressing its preference for Hon. Thomas

Tor the Presidency. The article discusses
MIR. Scott's peculiar fitness for the candidacy

SALT LAKE, Oct. 3I.-H. G. Eldridge,
OF the Bank of Deseret, and VIM. Jennings,

A Curious Case.
The case Of Clayton VS.. Clayton, being a
suit OF a polygamOus, wife of VIM. Clayton,
Territorial Auditor, for divorce and alimo-
ny is on the docket for tomorrow. The
point at present raised is a demurrer to
the jurisdiction of the United States Court,
the defense claiming that matters of this
nature belong exclusively to the Probate
Court. The plaintiff is Clayton's ninth
wife, and suit for divorce before aUnited
States Court of course cannot be maintain
ed. The testing of the merits of the case
however, it is expected, will be decidedly
curious in asmuch as to admit that the
plaintiff is defendants wife, would leave
him open to the charge of polygamy. The
defendants only hope, therefore, is to
maintain the demurrer. s.80fssr- 1.r a..

MARRIAGE RELATION I'm FRANCE.

The following statistical statement Of the
number of applications for divorce, or rather
for legal separation, in France, is interest
ing. In 1869 the petitions for separation
rose from 2,999 which was the number in
the previous year, to 5,056. OF these, &
6l1 came from the wife, and only AS from
the husband. FOur-tenths Of the whole
number, that is, 1920, emanated from the
working classes, 545from landed proprietors,
400 from peasants, and 4S5 from the COM
mercial classes. In 442 cases the Judge sue
ceeded in efiecting a reconciliation, in 2S2
the petition was rejected, and 2,3s2 the de-
cree Of separation was pronounced. The
reasons given in support Of the petitions
throw light on the character Of the lower
classes of French society. In 147 cases the
wife had been guilty q adultery; in 65 the
man had kept a eOncubine in the same
house with his wife; in 230 one Of the
parties had suffered degrading punish
ment, and in 2,959 excesses, insults and IL
treatment were the cause Of the separation.

From the New York Sun, Oct. %.
Henry Dillon, an ex-Union ST ldier, pro-
prietor of a newspaper stand at MOntgom-
cry and Hudson streets, Jersey City, yes
terday received a check for $500 from the
daughter of the late Gen. Stegman, of the
Confederate army. The circumstances un-
der which the money was paid are romantic.
During the war Dillon served in the
Second New Jersey cavalry. He ac-
eOmpanied his regiment on Grier-
sons famous raid through Mississippi, and
while on a scouting expedition one day dis
covered Gen Stegman and one of his staff
officers. Shots were exchanged, and the
rebel General fell from his saddle, mOrtally
wounded. The staff officer fed, but was
overtaken and captured by a comrade of
Dillon's. In his dying moments Gen. Steg-
man requested his slayer to take from one
of his inside pockets his will, bequeathing
all his properly to his wife and daughter,
and life insurance policy for $4,000. He
asked Dillon 70 keep them and send them
to his family.
After the war Mr. Dillon advertised in
vain for the owners, and he resolved to re-
tain possession Of the papers until some in
quiries should be made for them. Re
Gently an advertisement appeared in the
Alabama papers offering $500 reward for
the missing will. Dillon answered it, and
Gen. Stegman's daughter came North as the
guest of Roger A. Pryor. She related the
particulars of the long search for the win,
the difficulties that had been encountered,
the production of forged will by her faith
er'S relatives, and their Mobile law
suits. She expressed deep gratitude to
Mr.. Dillon for the recovery of the
will, and said that through it her mother
and herself would be enabled to regain pos
session of their extensive Alabama and
Georgia estates. The estates are valued at
100000.
Dillon is to be subpened as a witness in
the suits for their restoration to the rightful
owners. Young Dillon calamity distin-
guished himself in several actions during
the war, and was one of the few private sol
diers to whom Congress voted goldm
for bravery.

starting to get the agreement acknowledged
by party, the shot was fired without saying
a word.
