Chancellor Runyon has just rendered deci-
sion ia one of the most remarkable cases ever
brought before the New Jersey State Courts
1t is suit brought by one James Persons
against his wife, Harriet, for recovery of his
property in Paterson. Persons, who was born
in England. 1898, travelled in early life over q
large part of the world. In 1888 he married and
subsequently discovering that his wife already
had husband living Travelled to St Louis with
her in search of her husband, to whom he surren-
dered her. In England, in 1872 he married his
present wife, and finally decided to move to Pat
erson. Providing his wife with $500 in cash,
he sent her to purchase, in his name, the prop
in that city. She repaired to the place desig-
mated, and had the deeds made out in her
own name In utter ignorance of this fact her
husband, who is some twenty-five years her
! senior, afterwards paid small balance of the
purchase money. Mrs. Persons then started a
boarding-house, and among her guests was a
man named Isaac Farthing, who was very near
her own age. An attachment sprung up between
Mrs. Persons and this man, and in proportion as
| the attachment grew was the old husband treat
ed with cruelty. In October, 1872, the pair took
| possession Of the house, Mrs. Persons putting a
| single dollar into the hands of her husband, and
| turning him out on the streets. Bent down with
| years, and unable to engage in an active busi-
ness, he threw himself upon the hospitality OF
| some kind friends and laid the case before o
| Paterson lawyer Suit was Immediately institu-
| ted by the injured husband against his heartlesa
wife in the Court of Chancery to gain the title to
| the property purchased with his money Chan.

The new ownsrs have right to change its
policy ii they see it--no man can hinder that
though many men may be erisyed thereby--but
while vssrins from Reputlieanisn to Dsmocra-
cy they should st lsast nsvs the dessnoy to treat
their cotenporaries With the Justice which the
founder of the paper never denied to his most
virulent opponent
The contrast is indeed, singularly vivid. 1t
WAS Mr.. Greeley's way to consider matter from
all sides to recognize the fact that every par
tzan, If truly in earnest, had some good in him
worth finding out, and not TO bs summarily DIS
missed with sneer, or yet more brntslly. Gree
ley's political articles were models of reasoning.
When he differed with man he set forth the
why and wherefore nor hesitated clearly to pres
ent the points on which be and the opposite party
agreed. Take as an instance his position during
Mr.. Lincolns first candidacy. He did not APP
prove the current of opinion which seemed bear
ing Lincoln to Washington, and said 30 in some
of the strongest articles he ever wrote yet in
saying so he did Mr.. Lincoln complete justice
and never sought by calumny or misrepresen-
tation to defeat the popular will. The grand re-
suit was that with all its eccentricities the peo
pie believed in the Tribune conducted by Horace
Greeley while with all its perfection as a news
paper-and it is doubtless now greater in this
regard than ever--they do not believe in the
| Tribune, as conducted by Whitelaw Reid.
Considerits recent treatment of Gen. Dix, at
pure man, we do not hesitate to say there is il
American Politics at this moment, an honor to hit
party and to his country. Yet in its new hatred
Of everything Republican the journal 'founded
by Horace Greeley assails this honest soldier
statesman in manner quite incomprehensibl'
to those who know the difference between a de
cent man and blackguard. Its last abuse aros
from the fact that Gen. Dix had expressed al
opinion on the Third Term question, whereat
few into rage because the opinoin had no
been given long ago. The explanation Of thi
probably is that the expression interferes some
how with the Democratic opposition in New York
Old friends are best surs enough. Men pic
up the Tribune now aud feel that something i
gone from them; that they would rather hav
less news and more heart;-not, il needs be, 8

API Ute Papa IN SCHOOL.

Three little Pi Ute Indians boys attend the
Silver City public school, Unlike the majority
of white men, the father of one of the redskins
thinks it worth while to visit the school occa-
sionally and observe the progress of his son and
heir-the hope of his wigwam. When the faith
er comes to visit the school he marches into the
institution of learning with a turkey feather in
his hair and a shot gun on his shoulder. AS an
object of distraction to the school, the lamb lit
tie Mary had would not amount to a row of pins
beside the big Iniun, with turkey feather, war
paint, and long-banelled shot gun.- Virginia

said that the Fourteenth Amendment to the
Constitution is perpetual bar to the realization
of such hope. But Mr. Hunter one of the lead
ing Democrats OF Virginia, says the emancipa-

gally adopted, and that they are therefore void.
Mr. Hunters declaration of the unconstitution-
