WoMAN's CHANCES OF GETTING MAR
RIED.-Englands marriage statistics
have been anAlyzed to show the probabI.
titles Of marriage for women at different
ages. supposing the sum Of q womau's
chances oil marriage to be one hundred,
she exhausts between the ages Of 10 and 20
years fourteen and q halt chances.
Itshe lives unmarried from 20 to 25, fifty.
two more ol her chances have vanished
into thin oil. II she remains unmarried
tor five more years, she will turn 80 with
only fifteen and hall chances out Of her
hundred left. Alter 85 she has eleven
and half chances, and at this point the
stAtistlcian gave up his calculation, ex-
cept that he assures Us that even II q wo.
man has lived unmarried 80 years, she
still has the tenth OF chance Of getting
married out Of the hundred with which
she was supposed TO have started life.

counsel for the Company filed a special
plea Tor The dismissal Of the application,
on the ground that the State law in ac-
cordance with which MIR. Stedman made
the application is unconstitutional. 1t Is
probable that this point will be argued
before Jude Besrdsley, Of the Superior
Court, this afternoon. In his application
Commissioner Stedman stated that the

plumbers, 100000, and their liabilities

All New York, or rather tho stratum o.

clergymen, laymen, and church.goiuq
people, arc ugltatiDg o great question
which has arisen, and which must q,
once be met. l refer to the opening o.
Sunday evening amusements, called
SACRED Concerts" but which, held ID
theaters, and combining dramatic and
musical performances, can not rightly be
SO called. That the opening OF amuse
ments on Sunday evening ia on the in
crease, Ia evinced by the seven dra,
matte and operatic entertainments
given last Sunday evening. ali
were advertised Rs "Grand Sacred Con-
certs," yet the fine classical music given
BY regimenial band and orchestra was
not altogether Sacred" nor we're the &C.
lections from opera and drama always
devout and solemn. II seems to be q
widespread fear among our leading cler-
gymen and church people, that New
York, so proper and decorous on a week
day, may geF 10 initiate New Orleans, OF
even Paris and many other European
cities, in her Sunday evening amusements
Many are the letters written, many the
sermons preached, by our leading clergy
men lately, on this new danger that
threatens US. An Euglish Episcopal d.
vine, lately settled in Brooklyn, has writ.
ten and preached Ia favor OF these even
ing concerts on Sunday, as attracting the
masses, and amusing them In right and
sensible manner He argues that. il they
will not attend evening church, they can
be benefited and refreshed for the hSrd
struggle Of the coming week by attending
some places Of innocent amusement as a
SACRED Concert" a New York Uniytr.
sslist clergyman has gone even o step
further, and asserted that "Once q Sunday
is quite enough for any person 10 attend
church, and that Sacred Concerts are a
benefit" But the mass Of clergymen
and church going Golhsmiles look with
alarm al these new manifestations, and
wonder where the liberty Of enjoyment
is 10 be checked. Ithss long been con-
sidered right to take stroll, write q
letter, read the papers or a good book, or
even enjoy drive, on the Sabbath; and
even our pastor can enjoy cigar and
'kItG after bis sermons. But people
begin TO shudder at the broad license and
wide open doors Of the so called "Grsnd
Sacred Entertainments" and 10 ask each
other where the matter will end.

Is only six dollars this year, while
hers Is ten dollars." She desires us ito
warn widow ladies from coming 10
Moundsville to buy themselves home"
and she goes on to relate the experience
Of a certain unfortunate widow who
bought lot for flty dollars, and another
LOT that had q small stable on II for Tour
hundred dollars" II seems that this un.
fortunate widow "fouud herself taxed at
thirteen hundred dollars for her vacant
lot, and the same Tor the lot that had the
stable on IT," Notwithstanding the fact
that mot 0 lot in the place was selling
for more than two hundred dollars." And,
"As II all this was not enough in the way
Of robbery" this unfortunate widow
twas further taxed with o capitatlon
tax when everybody knew there never
had been q man about her house, or II
there had been his tax had no right on
her bills"
1t seems that there Is no hope for any
redress Of grievances for the unfortunate
widow ladies Of Moundsville, inssmuch
aS the letter Of our fair correspondent as.
sures Us that this over taxation was put
before Republican Board Of Supervisors,
when the Republicans were in power, and
nothing was done. And when the Dem.
ocratG came into power 1t was put before
their board and nothing was done" She
supposes, therefore, "that the individual
members had all they could do to pocket
the dollars themselves" whatever that
means, Her conclusion Is that, Demo.
Gratis and Republicans can clasp hands
over the chasm Of their pockets II moth.
ing else" In this conclusion we are not
prepared 10 take issue with her. We wish
We knew what advice or consolation
to offer to our correspondent in
view Of the wrongs ol which she
complains, but really We arc at loss
what TO suggest. We think probably it
would be better to move the Rolling Mill to
some other place. Perhaps iilthe widows
and other property holders who have been
90 sadly damaged by it would turn in and
vote 1t o small bonus as an inducement to
lsAye, their property would recover It's
rentable value. At least we have prece'
dent for the possibility Of such thing in
Mother Goose's Melodies, in the case Of
that eccentric individual who having lost
his eyes by jumping into bramble bush
recovered them sgain by repeating the
process. ItmIght be well to try and get
rid ol the Rolling Mill .by.some such oper.
alton as this. 1t is the only remedy that
occurs to US at this time.
