Washington County Court.

HORACE W. LYFoRD, Sheriff
LUTHER NEwCOMB, Clerk
The week has been occupied by the trial
of the Mead divorce case. Capt. A. A. Mead
and his wife, Mrs. Sarah Mead. each petit
toned for divorce from the other. Wing,
Randall, and Dillingham; for Capt. Mead and
Livingston, HeatoD and Hath for Mrs. Mead.
1t would seem from the crowded state of
| the Court Room during the trial that not on
| ly is the occupation Of Othello gone. but
| also that of very great number of our
cltzens, at least to. such degree as not to
give them any pressing occasion of devoting
much of their time to their usual avocations
Ordinarily people might learn something in
court room, but the occasions that appear
to be selected for crowd to be there, are too
commonly when the private affairs of some
unfortunate or erring man or woman are on
inspection and the more private aud unfit
for general edifcation, > tellectual and IRA
these affiirs are, the more eager is the inter-
est displayed 10 them.
l his case for the first time fully illustrates
the working of the divorce law of 1870, by
which trials are changed from the Supreme
Court to the publicity of the ordinary court
room. 1t is true the law gives the court
the power Of excluding from the trial all ex-
cept parties and their witnesses, but secret,
s. staT-chamber " trials are not in accordance
with the theory of legislation or administra-
| ton of justice to which the people are educat-
ed and the adoption of this rule of exclusion
mis- hit work great injustice to parties and
throw undeserved odIum ON all connected
with tie decision of any case that had excit-
ed the public.
The only alternative at present is to admit
such as are disposed to swallow voluntarily
and unnecessarily the filth that is stirred up
and picked over in such case as Montpelier
has the past week witnessed. The presence
OF SO great number of the gentler and
purer sex, when not necessarily in court as
witnesses, can be explained, we suppose, on
the theory that they are preparing themselves
tor the duties of jud re and juror, and looking
forward TO the time when they will be obi G
ed to take part in these disgusting exhibI-
tions, that they may not then be unfit or IN
prepared. The shock, if it came all at once,
would be too sudden for delicate nerves aud
sensibillties. But few repetitions of doses
like the one so many have been taking for
the last few days, will 60 great way toward
strengthening the feminine constitution to
such an extent that tyrant man can have
but little to say about its want of fitness fol
the rough blows and dirty ways of politics
We can account for the presence of SO many
women in no other way than this of UNIV ling
preparation for the higher duties about tC
devove upon them, tor it certainly mus
have been unpleasant and, otherwise, no
good Tor them TO be there.
