The divorce system of England is of recent
growth, but it is already quite as corrupt and
as fruitful OF abuses as that of New York or any
of the western states. There are divorce lawyers
who undertake TO avoid publicity and provide
evidence as well as advice and other strictly
professional services:
Il am assured" writes Justin Mccarthy in
London letter TO the New York Evening Mail
"by lawyers who practice in the divorce court,
that there is hardly case comes up which is
not supported on one side or the other by the
perjury of string of suborned and professional
witnesses. ln q single week there were three
prosecutions for perjury, arising out of three
different cases, and in each case a cluster OF male
and female wretches were convicted and punish
ed Now at last the dreadful fact is made
known that a regular profession OF perjury, like
that which existed in Rome's worst days, has
been created and fostered among us by the pc
cular temptations and facilities which our sys-
TEN of divorce offers"

THE NEXT CONGRESS.

Both wings of the rebel army, with the Gree
ley bushwhackers" thrown in, are doomed to
disappointment. Take North Carolina, the first
state holding an election, which occurs early in
August, Grant had II 600 or so majoity in '6S;
last year we had 10 900 on mixed issue. This
year we are sure of as much or more Poole
will be reelected. Senator Nye, vino leaves here
for the Pacific coast on Tuesday, is tolerably con-
tident Of reelection The democratic majority
against Representative Fitch was only 800
about 40 less than Oregon was carried by the
same year. Now there is about 700 the other
way. We shall have solid republican vote in
the House from the Pacific coast-six members
"a republican gain OF two over the present rep
resentation.
Coming east, and the Missouri valley is next
Nebraska will give Grant 5000 majority in spite
of Upton. Kansas may have a decreased ma
jorityi but will send three republicans and
Grant electors by at least 10000. That will he a
gain Of two representatives, making FIVE in the
Ave states named.
Missouri is problem Of mixed quantity, but
republicans there aud here freely offer 10 bet ON
Grants carrying the state Missouri is entitled
to thirteen representatlves,-a gain of FOUR
thus showing an increase of nearly half mil
lion Of population. At least one.thrd is from
emigration, seyenIenths Of which is republican.
There is fair prospect Of carrying six con
gressional districts, and probably more. There
is reason to count three more republicans. Iowa
no one doubts who knows anything of It's poll
ties. She has three more congressman TO elect.
IL is possible we may lose one district, but
hardly probable. SO we may fairly expect a
gain from the seven states named of eight repre-.
sentatves, on total Of thirty-four. Take the
northwest states, Minnesota, Wisconsin and
Michigan, and what ~ there 10 be estimated2
The first state has an additional representative.
IL is probable but not certain that we shall elect
him. In Wisconsin, as Il senatorship is in the
balance, there will be tremendous effort TO
divide The state gains two representatives
both Of whom will be republican, leaving the
delegation six to Two. Michigan gains
three, and there Is no detection of
| serious Character Gov, Blair is dissatisfied

III we may trust the reports from Havana, the
flibustering vessels employed to aid the Cuban
insurgents, do not fare well. The Fannie, it is
/ said, landed her cargo; but her men, or most of
them, were captured and shot, while she was
burned. The landed cargo, also, was captured
and will be used against the insurgents. 1t is
not long since the Fannie left New York, and
took from small vessels, at sea, the guns and
ammunition with which she was loaded Two
imbortant insnrgent leaders, Generals Perata
and Ryan, had charge of her. The Spaniards
say they have killed Peralts. The dispatch does
not mention Ryan. The Edgar Stuart, said to
be flibnster of the same kind, is now at Aspin-
wall in charge of the American vice consul The
Cubans aboard this vessel desire TO have her
given up TO the Central American authorities;
but the vice consul holds her subject to orders
from Washington. She ought TO be sent home
for trial; and if she is, as the reports say, fill
buster, she ought to be condemned.
There is nothing authentic in regard to the
present condition Of the Cuban insurgents; but
they appear to consist of small bands which
operate chiefly from secure hiding places in the
mountains. 1t has never at any time appeared
that the native Cubans engaged in this rebellion
are sufficient in numbers or force of any kind,
to take the held as an organized army and main
tain themselves in the open country. There APP
pears to be no point on the coast where they can
meet and protect those who bring them guns,
ammunition, and men. They have trusted
wholly to aid from this country. They can do
nothing without a strong and well furnished
tlbustering army from the United States; and
their agents and sympathizers have sought and
hoped for war between this country and Spain
There should be an end of their violations OF
our neutrality laws. The movements of vessels
employed to carry them supplies have been man
aged so craftily as to escape detection before
they sailed, in most cases; but their voyages
have not heen prosperous. 1t would be good
thing for all concerned, If this business of fill
clustering could be completely suppressed.

Last year we had Commander Selfridges
rather discouraging report of his efforts TO find
apraeticable route for ship canal across the
isthmus Of Daren or Panama. He surveyed
several, but TO each there was some objection
that seemed nearly inSuperahle. Common to all
was the difficulty of summit too high for an
open cut, involving the necessity of a tunnel of
considerable length. Engineers can estimate
the Expense of such a tunnel, high and wide
enough for the passage of large ships and pro-
nounee it theoretically possible; but as a praet-
cal problem a work of that kind has not been
attempted and probably will not be for the
present A surveying party was also sent out
by the United States TO explore the vicinity of
lake Nicaragua for canal route. This party
: has now suspended its work for the present sea
son, and a brief summary Of that already
accomplished has been published. They have
surveyed three routes between the lake and the
Pacific ocean. The first has for one terminus the
mouth Of the river Las Lagas, on Lake Nicara-
qua, and for the other the town of Brito, on the
Pacific. The distance is nineteen miles, and the
extreme elevation 148l feet. The second leaves
the lake about two miles north of the river first
mentioned, and has the same terminus on the
Pacific. Its length is about one mile less than
the other, and its greatest elevation is 1856 feet
The third route surveyed is known as the Buena
Vista route. 1t is still further north, its length
is about four miles less than the first, but the
greatest elevation is 1870 feet though this hight
is maintained for only short distance. This
route, in the opinion OF the engineers, is the
nAut afs a,
trustworthy, as the transit and level have been
carried over the whole distance. These data are
scanty, but so far as they go, they do not sug-
gest any very formidable difficulty. Access
10 the lake from the Atlantic side must
be provided in addition, II the long desired
inter-Oceanc canal is to take this route, and the
nature and extent Of The obstacles there, and
the probable cost Of surmounting Them have not
we believe, been carefully studied Another
difficulty suggested by former explorers is the
want of good harbor at the Pacific terminus,
il the connection were made between the lake
and the ocean by any Of these short routes An
admirable and spacious harbor exists same dis
lance further to the north in the gulf Of Fonseca
Or ConehaguA, but TO reach 1t from Lake Near
aqua II would be necessary 10 connect that lake
by canal with the smaller lake Managua and
the distance from the latter TO the port would
still be more than fifty miles, though probably
no great elevation would be encountered and
the channel Of a navigable river could be made
available for considerable part of the distance.

The astronomers tell US that gravity
is so increased at the sun that bodies
would weigh twenty-eight times as much
there as here. What singular results
that might occasion if the sun was in
habitable For example, a sylph-like
belle, weighing say one hundred and
ten pounds on earth, would weigh over
three thousand pounds at the sun
What lift she would be for lover
seeking to rescue her from her papa's
burning dwelling Then just think
the avoirdupois of man heavy on
earth-say three hundred pounder-
at the sum- There he would weigh
eight thousand four hundred pounds
Imagine such man falling from fifth
story window upon the head of an un
suspecting passer-by The coming
down Of thousand of brick on earth,
would be nothing to the impact of such
a creature on the sidewalk III front of
his sunny home. But the astronomers
are unanimous in the belief that the sun
is without inhabitants and we agree
with them, if it be true, as they say,
that the temperature of that organ is
ten million Fahrenheit

FOSSIL ELEPHANTS IN ALAsKA.-lt
has been generally supposed by scien-
tifc men that the fossil elephant Of ST.
IBERIA had no representative in the same
latitude on this continent. Recent ex-
aminations on the Yukon river in Alas
ka. however, have established the fact
that the remains are even more plentl-
full on the west than on the east side of
the North Pacific. Enormous quantities
of bones are found. and supply OF
ivory sufficient to last the world for
centuries. The valleys of all the streams
and all the low grounds are filled with
bones and tusks, so that every vessel
now arriving from these remote possess
ions has part of its cargo made up OF
these new-found remains. The elephant,
whose range was formerly almost uni
versal. is now confined to small por-
ton of Africa and Asia, and it would
seem as if the species was in process OF
slow extinction. Neither Europe nor
America, which once swarmed with them,
has now either climate or vegetation
fitted to their existence. Their remains
however, are likely. to give Alaskan
value not previously suspected.

WHERE THE GOLD GOES.

In the reign of Darius, gold was thir-
teen times more valuable weight for
weight, than silver In the time of
Plato it was twelve times more valuable.
In that of Julius Caesar gold was only
nine times more valuable, owing, per-
haps, to the enormous quantities of gold
seized by him in his wars. 1t is nat
ural question to ask-what became of
the gold and silver.
A paper read before the Polytechnic
Association by DR.. Stephens, recently,
is calculated to meet this inquiry. He
says of our annual gold product fully
fifteen per cent. is melted down for man.
ufacture thirty-fve per cent. goes to
Europe; twenty five per cent. to Cuba;
fifteen per cent. to Brazil five per cent.
to Japan, China and the Indies leav-
ing but five per cent. for circulation in
this country. Of that which goes to
Cuba, the West Indies and Brazil, fully
fifty per cent. finds its way to Europe
where, after deducting a large percent
age used in manufacturing four-ffths
of the remainder is exported to India.
Here the transit of the precious
metal is at an end. Here the supply
however vast, is absorbed and never re-
turns to the civilized world. The ORR
entails consume but little, while their
productions have ever been in demand
among the Western nations. AS mere
recipients, these nations have acquired
the desire of accumulation and boarding,
a fashion common alike to ali classes,
among the Egyptians, Chinese and Per-
slams.
A French economist says, in his opin-
ion, the former nation alone can hide
away $20,000,000 of gold and silver
annually, and the present Emperor Of
Morocco is reported as SO addicted tc
this avaricious mania that he has filled
seventeen large chambers with the pre-
cious metals. This being the passion O.
princes, it is not surprising that The
same spirit is shared by their subjects
and it is in this predilection that We
discover the solution of this problem as tt
the ultimate disposition of the preci ou
metals. This absorption by the Easter
nations has been uninterruptedly goiDs
on since the most remote historical peri
cd. According to Pliny, as much a
SlO0,000,000 in gold was, in his day
annually exported to the east The bal
ance Of trade in favor of those nations
Is now given as $8C,0O0,00O.
