Great Men and Their Wives.


From the days of Socrates to Charles
DICKENS there has been one long sue
cession Of unfortunate examples. Poet
and painter, dramatist and novelist,
philosopher and linguist-the Molieres,
the Millions, the Byrons, the Bulwars,
the Durers, the Scaligers, the Shearidans,
the Thackerays-will all marry and
quarrel in the future as in the past. All
these men, without exception, will in
the future as in the past, blame their
wives for the several successive catas-
troyphies. And yet what a record of
heartlessness and indifference our
greatest men have left of their domes-
tic life. DIR. Franklin, that old utili-
tartan kite flyer, went to Europe, leav-
ing his wife behind and never saw her
face for eleven years. She had shared
his poverty, and practiced his Poor
Richard maxims, pinehed and econo-
mized, patched and darned, worked
early and late, bred children, nursed
them through jaundice, red gum,
whooping cough, measles, scarlet fever
and fits, while Benjamin enjoyed the
splendor of court, velvet cushions,
great dinners and choice society. Of
course when he came back, the poor
drudge was no match for the philoso-
pher; there was great gulf between
them. That her heart rebelled is mani
fest in the headstrong acts Of her chill
dren. He quarreled with his sons and
disinherited one of them. Thus the
mother was revenged. A just retribu-
tion for any wrong on woman is sure
to come, in the vice and crime of her
children, to the third and fourth gen.
erations. Henry Clay thought he could
safely leave his wife at Ashland to bear
children and make butter for the Lex
ington market, while be made laws

women in Washington. There his

man on a farm in Kentucky, cutting

His dream Of ambition over, sick and
sad, he went back to Ashland to find
that the domestic drudge, called by
the holy name of wife, had reared up
for him race of degenerate and way
ward children. He was filed with the
bitterness Of disappointment. But they
measured the depth Of the mothers
humiliation. The angels Of indiffer-
eace and retaliation were but equal.

Omaha, .. The Pacific Railroad at last
accounts was blockaded between Laramie
and Rawlns and also west of Rawlins the
snow was still drifting, and the prospects of
the road getting clear were as bad as ever.
A train left Ogden Saturday for the East
composed of Central cars, as there were no
Union cars west of the blockade. This last
eastward train is probably now with the 9TH
ers in the drifts off Creston.
Cincinnati, o., ). An attempt at robbery
was made in the Adams Express car on the
Pan Handle train due here Saturday morn
ing After leaving Xenia the armed guard
was sitting in darkness, having been deprived
OF light by the frozen lamp oil. The quiet
was broken by some unknown person in the
end Of the car who struck light, the better
to enable him to prosecute his search among
the valuable. The illumination thus made
clearly revealed man at work upon the
trunk, whereupon the guard fired, striking
the robber in the breast, the ball passing to-
wards his right shoulder. The wounded man
was brought in custody to this city, and
finally removed to the hospital. The wound
is not dangerous. The man gives his name
as James 1remble, and said he was once a
brakeman on the road.

Intelligence from Halifax.

Halifax, y. S., ,. There was a severe
southeast gale with snow, rain and hail Sat
urday night. Considerable damage was done
to shipping in port. American steamer Lady
Head broke from her moorings and collided
with brig St. Vincent and schooner Spirit of
the Day. All three were damaged. Several
vessels dragged anchor. The injury to ship
ping would have been greater had we not
been informed Of the coming of the storm.
The intimation of the English press of tie
intention of the British government to re-
pndiate the treaty excites grave comments
here. 1t is believed that such a violent
course would be almost a certain signal for
war. The English government, it is thought,
will therefore hesitate before consenting TO
follow public opinion SO far as to take SO de-
cisive step. The merchants of Halifax are
deeply interested in the treaty.

House.

Various dilatory motions were made and
votes taken by yeas aud nays in order to con-
sumo time and stave off the new drawing for
seats.
Mr.: Peters of Maine moved to suspend the
rules and the adoption of resolution declar-
ing that the highest patriotism and most en-
lightened public policy demand of all political
parties and of citizens acquiescing in the
18th, 14th and 10Th amendments to the Con-
stitution, and such reasonable legislation of
Congress as may be necessary to make them
in their letter and spirit the most effective.
Agreed to, l20 to 81.
Mr.. Brooks of New York moved to sus-
pend the rules and adopt a resolution recog-
nizing the 18th, l4th and 18th amendments as
valid parts of the Constitution. Agreed to,
l66 to %.
Mr.. Stephenson of o., moved to suspend
the rules and adopt resolution recognizing
as valid and binding all the existing laws
passed by Congress for the enforcement of
the 18th, l4th and 18th amendments to the
constitution, and for the protection of citizens
in their rights under the constitution as
amended.
Mr.. Randall-Those laws are unconstitu-
tional
Mr.. Eldridge-I think you had better take
these cases to the supreme court.
Without taking a vote on the resolution or
disposing of the question for drawing seats,
the House adjourned.

Those who are well acquainted with our
relations with Great Britain under the Treaty
of Washington, have no apprehensions that
any serious conflict of opinion is to arise be-
tween the contracting Pow ers. 1t was agreed
that the case to be presented by each nation
should be referred to arbitrators at Geneva,
who were to be governed by a set Of rules
laid down in the Treaty, and John Bull now
protests against the demands for indirect
damages included in the American case thus
presented. What the demands of Great
Britain are is not as yet publicly known, but
it should have been expected that the United
States, like any other party to a bargain,
would have made the largest possible demand.
Payment of the indirect damages caused by
the prolongation of the war, for which Great
Britain is shown to have been accountable
HAS been demanded, as well as payment OF
direct damages caused by the Alabama and
other rebel cruisers fitted out in British wa
ters. But because this payment has been de.
manded it does not follow that portion Of it
may not be accepted 1t is for Great Britain
to appear before the Geneva Tribunal and
prove that her view of the case is correct
not to get indignant now. Should the arbi-
traitors rule that indirect damages are not to
be considered, the counsel for the United
States will telegraph that ruling here, as they
are not clothed with any authority to depart
from the statement of the case placed in their
professional charge. Our Government will
then doubtless direct modification of the
claim. in accordance with the limitation of
the issues on which the arbitrators are will
ing to decide. But thus far there is no off,
cial knowledge here that the case of the
United States is not in accordance with the
stipulations of the treaty; and the exhibition
of anger in the London newspapers is but a
repetition of the equally vehement demon
STATIONS with which Senator Summers
speech, announcing the liability of Great
Britain for indirect damages, was received in
that country. 1t was that speech which
brought the British Commissioners here to
make the Treaty of Washington, and the de-
mand for indirect damages now made, if not
accepted, may secure the payment of indi-
vidual claims. Washington correspondent
of Boston Journal,
