TItOn's First Separation From His
wife.

In the examination on the 10Th inst,
in the Reecher trial, correspondent
says:
A slight sensation in regard TO Til
toms brief separation from his wife in
November, 1870, and the means he
took to get her back. On leaving his
house she took her child aud went to
her mothers. rilton sent for her to
visit his office, and she did 80. While
she was absent from her mothers TIL
ton sent woman there with @ per-
emptory order 10 carry his child to his
house, and as this business was carried
out, Mrs. Tilton soon returned home.
The point of the oross-examination
was to show that Tilton induced his
wife TO leave her mother TO call at his
office, and then abducted their child
during her absence TO compel its moth
er to return home. During this pain
full exposure OF Mrs. Tilton's flight
from home to her mothers house, and
OF the device alleged to have been ems
piOyed to enforce her return, Mrs.
Tilton wrote continuously on a piece
of paper, which was afterWard passed
TO Tracy. One of the curious features
of the trial is the frequency with which
Mrs. Tilton prompts her husbands
cross~eXamiDer.
AS witness Tilton is less satisEacto-
ny to his own counsel, and much more
easy TO be dealt with on crOss-exam-
ination by the defense than Moulton
was. 1t has been a tedious, dragging,
long winded day. There have been
no hugely sensational incidents or
surprising developments there has
been but little POPULARITY on the part
of the counsel or witness, and none Of
those rasping passages which generally
make us laugh as much az the funny
ones. But Evarts made many subtle
and sinuous attempts TO involve the
witness in contradictions, aud to col-
fuse him in all sorts of WAYS.

\ correspondent Of the Boston Adler
tiser, who has apparently had exception
al opportunities for knowing the intrigue,
Of the Spanish Bourbons in Paris, says he
was told by Queen Isabella, three months
ago, that the "cost had been enormous,
but the result would be apparent before
the winter had passed" IL took 81 ,0OO,-
900 10 convert Serrano, and the queen /,
said to have spent in all about $1,000, 900.
TO raise this sum she has had recourse 10
every possible eXpedient, even to selling
her jewels and laces. The Due dc Mont
pensier also loaned 81, 900, 900 10 Don Car
los, in hope TO further the claims of his
wife TO the throne, and there is general
rejoicing in French circles that he has
lost it outright. Montpensier has also Sc
cured the love letters Of the queen moth
er, having bribed Don Francois d'Assisis,
her ex-husband, 20 steal them for the re-
ward Of valuable diamond. BY this in

II THE DISCUSSION in the Senate
over the proposed law to tax the
losing party, in civil suits, with the
cost Of the jury, Senator Jones, ar.
guiRg in favor Of the bill, said:
The speaker cited case in his own
county where the county had been taxed
with jury-costs, TO the amount of five hun
dred dollars, where mule, and a dead
mule at that, was the object in controversy.
Senator Emmert said there was large
class of people in every community who
are eternally going to law, putting their
honest, law-abiding neighbors 10 an i'm
mense cost. Senator Alden opposed the bill,
and said that its passage would be "a viola
ton of the bill of rights and that litigants
might, with as much justice, be required
to pay for the time occupied by the Judge in
hearing the case.
Senator Hodges favored the bill, and
said that trial b" jury could not be had
without the services of sheriff, clerks and
witnesses and that if litigsnts are requir-
ed to pay for these, they may with equal
justice be required TO pay jury-costs.

The Mnk In the Cocoa NuI.

The secret Of the resolution OF the
Tennessee Legislature, in favor Of
Tom Scott's bill for $4,000 aid for
the Texas Pacific road, is thus de-
scribed by Washington correspond
ent:
The effects Of tremendous lobby is
seen in the resolutions now being
passed by some of the Southern Leg
islatures. One method of operation
has been to induce the State Legisla-
lures to instruct their Senators and
request their Representatives to vote
for this bill. 4 recent resolution of
the Tennessee Legislature il thus eX-
planned: 4 Democratic Representa-.
tive from Georgia IL said To have
written four letters TO members Of the
Legislature of his State, urging the
passage Of a similar resolution there,
and the same trick has been played
in other Southern States. The ex-
PLANTATION Of this proceeding is, that
there are many timid members who
will vote for the bill IL they can fall
back upon the resolution of the Leg
islatures of their States. Then, in the
case Of being held TO an account, they
can claim that they were carrying
out the instructions Of the Legisla~
ture, and not acting upon their indie
pendent judgment. IL IL said that
several skilled lobbyists have charge

expect to have resolutions similar TO
those from Tennessee passed within

State where the Legislature IL in SEES

Preparations for War In Europe
Prom the Saturday Review

When the system of universal con
scription, lately established in Russia
has borne its full fruits, the total NOM
inal strength Of the Russian army il
calculated at $500, 900 men. This is
half million in excess of the German
force, but the vast extent of the Rus
sian dominions must always make it
more difficult TO concentrate Russian
than German armies; and for the pres
ent Russia has not enough officers to
supply the requirements of so vast al
army. The German army is, there
fore, and must for some time remain.
the first army in the world. The arm
ing of the greater powers has, how
ever, made it necessary that the lesser
powers should follow in their wake.
and not only Austria and Italy, but
smaller States, like Sweden, Belgium
and Switzerland, are doing their best
to make their armies efficient Spain
exhausts itself in raising armies to
fight each other, and Turkey exhausts
itself in raising an army which it il
not allowed to use. Europe may
therefore be said TO be in arms from
one end to the other, although there
is no immediate prospect or assignable
cause of war.

Mr.. Carpenter referred, with much

vass next autumn would be but the
preliminary skirmisb. He IL of those
who believe that the issues in thai

such Issues were dead, aud we do not

tensions in the North by the assur-
ance that the war questions will never

in every way the support of that por-

awaken those questions. A policy OF
this character is never safe. 1t Is SUR
to betray the party which adopts 1t

Monetary Effects Of the whisky Ia,

To say that the consumer pays the
tax on spirits, and, therefore, it is a.
much burden on all as on those CEN
trail districts of the interior or West,
where most of the distilling is done,
does not tell the whole truth. The
payment Of this enormous tax in the
first instance, by the distiller, make
him carry the financial burden until
it is distributed. TO require the dir
filling business OF the West to use for
ty or fifty millions of dollars of addi-
tional capital, because OF the tax, is "a
very heavy burden on this manufac-
ture; and this financial necessity
draws SO much loanable capital from
all other business, and thus keeps up
general monetary pressure. And there
fore, every increase of this enormous
tax increases the general monetary
pressure on all kinds of business in the
West. -C.Rcinnd Gazette.

But il the Legislature is not willing
to make an additional appropriation,
it should let the appropriation stand
that has already been made. With
that amount the building can be put
up and covered, so that the walls will
be preserved until the State is better
able to do more. We think this would
be the proper course to pursue, even
if the financial bearing of the case is
the only one looked to; but taking
the first view mentioned in connec.

should not only not repeal the law

make an additional one necessary tc
furnish and equip the building ready
