A Little Light on an Obscure Point.

From the La Crosse Sun.
\ correspondent who has not been
married many years, writes Us for
advice He says he and his wife
differ in opinion on asubject of great
Importance, and they have decided
to leave it to The Sun, and abide the
decision. The question is, should
the man or wife get in first and get
the bed warm? Well, (excuse our
emotion while we spit on our hands
This is question that has occupied
the minds Of EN- nent scientists for
the past half century, and no two
agree. We have not sought the
position Of arbitrator on this ques-
ton. 1t has been forced upon us.
There are several rules that apply to
the case, and as custom is divided
on the subject, it seems proper that
some court of competent jurisdic-
ton should decide. But all judges
do not agree, and so The Sun will
settle it. Judge Alva Stewart de-
cided, in the case of Turner VS..
Turner, Puckaway r., p. 1875, that
inaSmuch as the defendent, the hus-
band, was the smallest, that it
would be better for him to 90 to
bed first, while Judge Pulling, in
the case of Hume vs. Hume, Calu-
met K. vol. /, p. 2, remarked that
if he was the defendant he would
go to bed first and LOCK the door
and not let the plaintiff, the husband,
in at all, but ma &c him sleep in the
barn. With these discrepancies Of
opinion from great legal minds, 1t
is bard for The Sun to prepare an
opinion that will hold water. How
ever, from the evidence, and taking
into consideration the fact, patent
to all students of political economy,
that In ninety cases out of one
hundred women's feet are seventeen
degrees colder than ice, and that
they invariably place them in the
warmest place in The small of a poor
suffering husbands back, and that
they roll themselves up in a pack
age about the size of a camp stool,
and seem to be all toe-naiIs and
hair-pins, useless for purposes of
warmth, and from the additiona!
fact that they pull all the clothes off,
The Sun is constrained to decide
that the woman should go to bed
first, warm the front side Of the
bed, and when the poor, careworn
head OF the family gets through
smoking and comes to bed, she
should roll over to the backside of
the bed and warm a place for her
self. From this decision there is no
appeal.

TherSETs many business houses for
rent in the city, and a great many dwell
ing houses also. when can be rented for
much less than they we're last year. The
cause Of this is that business has been
oysrdons heretofore and persons have
paid too much rent. The vacant resi-
dences aud tenement houses tell in
unspesksble terms that mechanics and
aud lsborers are leaving the city for
other psrts On account OF scarcity Of
work. There seems 70 be but very little
building to be done this coming year,
and certainly very little building was
done last year. There is a large nun.
Der Of mechanics, clerks, laborers, etc.
out Of employment, a general cutting
down Of expenses having taken place
even in the midst Of the business season.
This taking in sail proves clearly that
business is rapidly falling of, and pre-.
sents a foretaste Of what will be doing
during the summer season. Some Of the
principal causes of this is too little Of
q diversified industry; too much crowding
into the city by negroes and whites who
ought to be blowing, too much politics
and too little honest labor too much
taxing Of the property of the State
for the benefit of all those who
have usurped the domain of politics.
There are too many consumers and toe
lew producers, and these drawbacks are
impoverisbing the city. The city gov
ernment is not a financial success, and
the only theory Of finance understood BIZ
the Mayor is, "lfI had the money !
would pay of all the debts of the CITY.
SO could any child, but it requires some
financial genius and experience 10 now
master and bring under control the in
creasing burthens Of the city. These
are facts which stare us in the face, ant
although a roseate hue could be giyer
the subject with a few strokes Of III,
pencil, yet such would present a false
appearance and produce a false impress
sion. The facts must be met in a bust
mesa manner, and must be overcome from
a business standpoint.
