COUNTERFEIT MARRIAGES.

If all the vice i'm the world were confined to
bachelors, the verdict just given in the Brinck-
ley case would be subject of general con-
graduation. No severer warning against what
is sometimes regarded as venial fault among
our gilded youth could be imagined than this
verdict which marries q man of fortune and
social position to licentlOus companion, upon
her own testimony. Judge Van Brunt ex-
pressly told the jury that unless they believed
that the parties went through solemn form
of agreement to marry on the 14th of June,
1864, the plaintiff had no case. The woman
swore they did, the man swOre they did not
AS the Judge and jury were men they nat
urally took the wOmans side. The other facts
in the case were disregarded; the witnesses
who swOre to the vicious life Of the plaintiff
from personal knowledge and fIOm common re-
pute, were looked upon by the Court with an
evil eye. The evidence that she was transferred
from one man to another like piece of
merchandise, that she had visited improper
houses with Brinckley before the pretended
date of marriage, were held to weigh nothing.
Little stress was placed upon what would seem
to most people the most important point of
the case-that Brinckley had introduced the
woman as ulS WIG III HOttlb anu In Otner
places. The case was decided by the jury on
the charge of the Judge relative to the secret
marriage Of Brinckley and the plaintiff-solus
cum sold-of which there was not the slightest
evidence except her oath, contradicted by his.
The Judge said that if Brinckley intended to
make the woman believe this agreement was
marriage, it was one, even If he had no
intention to marry her.
1t may be said that this case is full of edi-
fication for young men Of more money than
brains OF conscience. If they would all read
it and lay it to heart it might keep them out
of ways where there is nothing, and ought to
be nothing, but misery and degradation. There
will be no sympathy felt for those who suffer
by such an application of law. The good of
society is directly involved in making the ret
ribution which lights upon men who trans
gress the laws of morality as severe and as
certain as possible. If a man lives with o
woman, imposing her upon decent people as
his wife when she is not 1t is not too great
a punishment for his fault to give her
his tarnished name and the money which
he puts to so bad q use. So far, there
is q sort of equity in the treatment which O
sympathetic jury has measured out in this
case. If all pen bsd gsasQp. aud ~ Wa4ss

LUSS-RICHARDSON.

A journal belonging to the angelic press of
Washington remarks that "the satanic press y
by which we suppose is meant the press
that differs from the angelic in not having
had any paving contracts" is good deal de-
"moralized over the removal of Mr.. Cluss from
the Board of Public Works" The statement
that the friends of the President are panied or
even astonished at his action is vigorously
and Indignantly denied. Further, this news
paper says According to his own tes-
timony, Mr.. Cluss was either an incOmpe-
"tent and unfaithful officer or perjured wit
"ness-if not bOth-and as he had not suf-
fcent regard for the decencies of life to
"vacate position he could only disgrace,
"there remained but one course for the ap-
"pointing power, and that was to remove
him"
1t is not usual. we believe to slap a witness
into Jail from the witness stand because the
thief in the dock says his testimony is false,
but that may be the way they do things now
in Washington. No one has pronounced Mr..
Cluss "either an incompetent, an unfaithful
"oficer or perjured witness except the men
whom he charges with fraud. Mr.. Cluss was
removed by the President with no official
knowledge of the testimony whatever, and
upon no pretext except that he had testified
that some of the Presidents intimate friends
were dishonest, and they had charged him
with perjury, and demanded his removal. But
suppose we erase "Cluss' and substitute
d" Richardson" which the official report of ian
investigating committee, and not the mere un-
supported assertion of an enemy, warrants us
in doing-how will the paragraph readi
According to his own testimony Mr. (Rch-

vere perfect, nothing but good could result
from such laws. and such interpretations OK
them. .Itr... +..f-.T .T.-N
But unfortunately there is another side TO
the case which is also worthy of consideration.
There are many young men who are weak
vain, and rich; and some women who are
immoral avariciOus, and cunning. The foolish
young men will not learn the lesson taught
by this case; there is sone reason to fear the
female adventurers will. BY carefully combin-
ing few points of evidence. it is placed In
the power of one of these women to get ono
of these simpletons completely In her clutches,
and to 90 before gallant and chivalrous jury
and get his name and his money. 1t will serve
the young mau just right, we may say: no
one should be an immoral simpletOn. But 1t
may be doubted whether it is good thing
for these women, inclined to live without
work and without honor, to make the
way of vice SO easy and 80 profitable. Inc
question is full of thorns however 1T Is de-
cided. Every ono who is interested In the
troublesome subject of social morals Will Dc
clad to know that this particular decision Is
to he appealed, and to receive the mature con-
sideratiOn of higher court. 1t is matter
which is greatly in need of all the attention
which our courts can give it. Society rests
upon the institution of marriage, and anything
which impairs its binding force and sanctity
ia disastrous. 1t is too sacred to be made either
a means of proHigacy or a legal punishment.
