THE INCREASE OF SALARY.

Marshall Wilcox, a prominent lawyer
and lifelong Republican, of Berkshire,
Mass, has written letter ON the legality
of the Presidents increase Of salary. Mr..
Wilcox opens his letter by declaring it TO
be his conviction that the part of the
salary act increasing the compensation
of the President, under the facts and
circumstances of the case. is unconstitu-
tional and void, and ought to be repealed,
for no unconstitutional act should en-
cumber the statutes of the land. In
support OF this conviction he quotes the
provision of the Constitution in regard
to the Presidents compensation, to-
gether with Hamilton construction OF
it. He then cites the act of 1898 estab-
fishing the Presidents salary at $4,000,
and says that was the only act in rela-
ton to such salary which was enacted
till March 3, 1873, when the new law was
passed As General Grant was formally
declared elected President in February,
1873 he entered upon his term subject
TO the provisions of the act Of 1893, and
his salary, therefore, could not be legally
affected by the subsequent act OF March.
1873. Whether, as Mr.. Wilcox claims,
the Act increasing the Presidents sala-
ry was contrary to the letter of the con-
stitution OF otherwise, it was clearly
against the spirit Of the fundamental law.
Congress is prohibited from either in
creasing or diminishing the Presidents
salary during his term, in order that the
Executive shall not be dependent upon
the Legislative department 1t was as
great wrong in Congress TO increase
Grants compensation after his second
election MS it would have been to reduce
it, and thus endeayor to coerce him into
the support of measures of Congress
which he might not otherwise approve.
Disregarding the spirit OF the Constitu-
ton the Democratic President, Senate
and House, in ls60-'6l, after Lincoln's
election, might have reduced the salary
Of their incoming President to a mere
nominal sum.

TIE DIVORCE BUSINESS. The business
Of procuring divorces for insufficient
cause or for no cause whatever, is prof.
tably followed by ring of some thirty
lawyers in New York, who are connected
with others in Connecticut and the West
ern States. They have their corps of
professional witnesses, through whose
perjury tue evidence necessary to obtain
divorces is supplied. SO thoroughly or.
ganlzed IN this system of perjury and
pettitogging that any man can obtain n
decree of divorce from his wife within q
period of Il few days without permitting
her to have the slightest knowledge that
any such proceeding has been contem-
plated. The lawyers who conduct the
infamous trade are perfectly well known,
since they prominently advertise their
business III the lower class OF
newspapers. That they have not one
aud all been indicted aud consigned to
Sing Sing fer actual perjury or for sub
ornation of perjury, is due only to the
fact that no one has taken the trouble TO
lodge criminal information against them.
Here Is certainly field which would
come within the province of the Society
for the Suppression Of Vice. These
divorce lawyers accomplish infinitely
more injury than do the miserable
wretches who furtively sell indecent
literature, for the reason that they bring
misery and ruin upon the helpless and in
nOcent. The sale of indecent literature
has been thoroughly broken up in this
city by the systematic but persistent war
which has been made upon it, Is it not
time that similar crusade should be
made against the wretches who trade in
perjury, aud make their living by the de-
struction of the reputation and peace OF
innocent husbands and wives -
