valuable Public Documents.

The bindery at the government printing
office has finished some very valuable pub
lie documents during the past week. The
proceedings of the third session Of the
Forty-Second Congress are contained in
three volumes of the Congressional Globe,
with an appendix embracing all the laws
passed at that session. The proceedings
of the extra session of the Senate are pub
lished in very neat quarto, styled the
Congressional Record. Grave doubts arc
expressed whether the government printer
has facilities for publishing the proceedings
of Congress, daily, In the small quarto
form which has been adopted, when both
houses arc in session. The Report Of the
Smithsonian Institution for 1872 has large
number of valuable scientific papers not
| usually otherwise accessible Among them
are an extended memoir of Sir John Hers
chel, and translation of Arago's biogra-
ply of Joseph Fourier, which was read
before the French Academy of Sciences.
| The volume also contains the instructions
of the Secretary of the Navy to Captain
Hall, and the instructions of Professor
Henry to tho Scientific Corps, which, to
gether with the report of the Polaris in
vcstigation, also recently published, com
plctcs the history, TO this date, of the Pc

published are, The International Pcnetcn

may be a fault of human nature, but 1t Is
true, that the people cannot be governed
and restrained by the mere fact that GER
tain courses are approved or denounced by |
divine law. God Numbered forth, from |
Sinai, his commands, but the people would |
not follow or obey his dictates The safe |
ty and peace of human society is involved
in the obedience of Gods commands, yet,
although this is almost universally &C
knowlcdged and felt 1t has been necessary
to provide for their enforcement, by hu-
man enactmcnts. II is commanded thou
shalt not steal" and "thou shalt not kill
but the mere divine command was not
found sufficient to restrain individuals
from the commission of these crimes.
Men would steal and would murder, and
even under the Jewish dispensation it was
found necessary to add the penalties of hui
man laws as punishment for disobcdience,
and warning and cxamplcto others against
| similar acts.
Regret 1t as much as we may men cal
culatc upon the uncertainty of life, and, in
their spcculations, determine that punish
mcnt, after death, is too remote to be taken
into consideration, they have long num-
Der of years before them in which they can
arrange for their violation of the laws of
God Human laws cannot DC SO easily
cvadcd they think. The penalties pre-
scribed by mans law are immediate and,
if crime is detected punishment will be
awarded at once, while the penalties of the
other may be avoided by futurcrcpentancc.
For these reasons, law makers have pro-
vided punishment for the attractions of
laws which have been enacted, if we may be
Above the expression, in aid of the en-
forccmcnt of Gods laws. Hence, also,
although marriage is of divine origin, leg
islators and jurists have treated it as a

Library Donations.

The city of Vergennes likely to become
possessed of valuable circulating library.
Susan b. Strong who died nearly TWEEN
ty years ago, bequeathed, it seems, the use
of nine hundred dollars to Ann Walters,
under the condition that at the deccase OF
the latter, the same should be paid over to
committee of three persons who were to
purchase historical, scientific and moral
books for the founding of a circulating Ii
brary in that city. The said nine hundred
dollars is to be given to the inhabitants of
the city, pr0ciied that they shall within
one year from the decease of Ann Walters
raise like sum to Ike expended for the
same purpose, by tax, donation, subscrp-
ton or otherwise.
Ann Walters died week since and the
people of Vergenncs are beginning to look
about for the fund to be raised among
them. Several hundred dollars we under
stand have already been procured and it is
thought the library is assured to the city
during the year ensuing.

RATHER CLOSE QUARTERS Charles
G. Hills horse of Troy, became frightened
at an approaching locomotive and turning
caught one wheel of the carriage between
one of the rails and the plank, turning it
over spilling him and another occupant out
Mr.. Hill, who was driving, held the reins
and was dragged short distance, tearing
his pants and vest, when the reins parted,
leaving him lying near the track, outside,
and his watch which had been thrown out
of his pocket, lay on the other side of the
rail. Meanwhile the locomotive, which
had been the cause Of the accident, was
approaching and passed over the watch
chain, severing the watch from Mr.. Hills
vest. Had the position of the watch and
Mr.. Hill been reversed, he would inevitably
have been run over; it was narrow escape
from instant death. The whole affair oc-
cupied hardly minute.

The Free Press copies our editorial in re-
ference to the death of Judge Steele, say
ing that it was "evidently written by a
warm friend and admirer," which may be
true in fact, if the intimation is not. The
Free Press, however, and all others inter-
ested, are respectfully informed that the
editor of The GLOBE writes his own edi-
torials-a habit lie never has deviated from
wherever he might be placed as an editor
and that, as yet, he has seen no occasion to
call in outside aid. He has the vanity to
believe that hereafter, as heretofore, he
will continue the same course, and that
some method will be adopted 80 that ex-
pressions of opinions from outsiders may
not gain currency as editorial. While we
propose to allow the largest possible free
dom of discussion on the part of our fell
low-citizens, compatible with prompt
dissemination of the news, we intend to re-
tain in our hands the policy to he pursued,
and expressions of opinion on current
events and public men 80 far as The GLOBE
is concerned.

DIVORCE.

Does any sensible person desire to see the
doctrines of Woodruff and Clafin obtain
foothold in America, and the doctrine of
free love come in and take the place of the
institution of marriageP If 80, they have
only to labor to make divorces easy, and
sneer at marriages as only convenience,
and talk about legislation looking to the
frequent and easy dissolution of the mar
riage contract, as boom to society and o
blessing to individuals. We have inveighed
against the ease with which divorces are
obtained in Indiana and other western
states, yet we find Vermont daily news
paper saying that divorce DEGREES are neces-
sary as safety valve of society, and that
they are ian emancipation from the worst
of human slavery" Although the law
makes marriage civil contract, as 1t
should, 1t is, also, divine institution. 1t

If we should say that we had issued a
daily edition of The GLOBE of five thous-
and copies, we don't think it would be par
ticularly gratifying to our advertisers, !"
or, although it would be the exact truth,
deceive them in regard to our circulation
If we, or any other newspaper, should pub
lish an article in reference to particular
enterprise, which the managers thereof
should deem an excellent advertisement or
a good puff, and should, therefore, order a
large number of copies, to be circulated as
circulars are distributed, we should not
consider that we were justified in announ-
cling the extra edition as part of our cir
culation, or leave the public to draw that
inference. If we, or any newspaper,
should take that course we do not believe
that we should gain the confidence of the
public or deceive advertisers thereby. An

they contain only the truth they are in

Ladies travelling through Canada by rail
are often annoyed by having their luggage
unnecessarily searched, but one of the
officials recently got his deserts. 1t hap
pened that Yankee school teacher on her
way from Kansas to Vermont, passed
through the Dominion, with a trunk
packed to bursting but with nothing con-
traband. When the officer demanded her
key, she begged him not to open it, assur-
ing him that it had come through from
Kansas, containing some books and some
clothing, and was 80 full that it would be
troublesome to repack it. But he ternly
demanded the key, and maliciously pulled
everything out to the very bottom. On
finding her assertions true, he returned the
key, and advised her to ''hurry up and get
the traps back" as the train would soon
move. "What's that to me?" said the
quick-witted woman. 81 have a check
for that trunk, and hold the Grand Trunk
railroad responsible for its safe delivery.
l will not take the key, and you may do
as you please with the trunk.n Report
says that the official was very weary and
red in the face, and rather profane, ere he
finished packing the trunk.
