ONE OF MANY INCIDENTS

One of the beauties of the marriage
laws which resolve the wife's individG-
ality into that of the husband, is illus
trated in a Centennial story, which
runs something in this wise:
A middle-aged woman from Atlanta,
Georgia, appeared at the Mayors office
in Philadelphia recently, in a state of
excitement quite natural under the cir
cumstances. She was in search of a
missing husband, who had disappeared
early in the morning, and she desired
police aid. She had been married the
day before to a man who represented
himself to be from Boston, where he
had father and other relatives. About
daybreak he had complained of feeling
unwell, and had left her room, as she
supposed, for a short time. But the fact
that he had carried off $1,000 and val
uables which the wife had given to his
keeping, led her to the conclusion thai
he did not intend to return. This con.
.clusion was strengthened as the hour:
passed away without bringing him.
One of the Mayors detectives prom
ised to aid her, if possible, in recovering
her property, but the chief obstacle il
the way of criminal proceedings wa'
the fact that husband cannot stea
from his wife, unless it be property tina
she holds in her own right.

CONFLICTING NEWS.

The conflicting returns and dispatches
relative to the election of President of
the United States for week so confused
and bewildered even the most sagacious
politician, that he was free to confess
that he did not know what he believed
or who was probably elected" Day
after day anxious throngs eagerly
sought the bulletin boards, only to be-
come more confused than before.
Neither ''the last, "the latest" nor the
"very latest,n tended to throw light
upon the subject or transfer the "doubt-
full States' into the certain" columns.
1t is a great misfortune that the election
was so close, as no matter which party
is defeated, they will not be disposed to
calmly and peacefully abide the issue
We hope, however, that the councils Of
prudence and of humanity will prevail
and neither party be betrayed by theil
passions or disappointments into acts
of violence.

UNCERTAINTIES.

When we last went to press, the tickle
dispatches from the East pointed al
most to a certainty to the election to
he Chief Magistracy of the nation of
Rutherford B. Hayes. Since that pc
riod doubt and anxiety have ruled the
minds of the people-one party jubilant
for a time over the supposed election of
rilden, and at the next flash that would
speak from the magic wires, the other
party would be extravagant in their
demonstrations of joy over the supposed
triumph of Hayes.
The excitement seems now for the
most part over, but the suspense and
anxiety continue as the people wait and
wait for reliable news from some of the
southern States. Enthusiasm, like
everything else, is weakened by fire.
quent and chilling disappointments;
indeed, it only survives them as it is
engendered in principle and grounded
in firm conviction of right. 1t is this
that renders the abiding enthusiasm of
in which they labor so utterly impervi-
GUS to what would else be the annihi-
iating influences of combined disap-
pointment and defeat. With the great
principles of liberty underlying and
supporting their enthusiasm, however,
they are invincible and their enthusi-
asm still lives.
1t is feared by many that we, as ma
tion, are stepping with tread not too
cautious upon the verge of violence and
anarchy. 1t is, indeed, a most pitiful
commentary upon the capability of men
for self-government, when the minority
will not submit to the will of the ma
jority without resenting by acts of law.

RECENT EVENTS.

Hayes majority in Ohio, according
to semi-official count, is 1882.
Since the close of the Centennial Ex-
hibition the general tendency to fall in
prices has reached first-class hotels in
New York. The st. Nicholas announced
a reduction to $3 50 per day from the
18th.
Judge Westbrook has decided to grant
motion of defendant counsel in Moulton
vs. Beecher, to change venue to north
ern county, aud Delaware county is to be
named, unless good reason for not doing
so is given.
The steamer "Franklin," with Tweed
on Loard, arrived in. safety at st.
Thomas, and on the Sth inst. sailed for
New York. Although her voyage was
tempestuous, Tweed was in excellent
health. She ran short of coal and was
compelled to stop at st. Thomas to re-
plenish.
Senator Morton will not return East
in accordance with requests telegraphed
to him, but will remain in San Francisco
until the close of the investigation of
the Chinese question. He had grand
reception rendered him at the rooms of
the Republican State Central Commit
tee on Saturday evening.
The sale of the great dalies for few
days has been unprecedent. The Iri6-
atne gives the following figures: On

The matter of the extradition of VIM.
NJ. Tweed came up in the Spanish
| Cortes .On the 11th. The Minister of
Foreign Affairs, in replying to ques-
tion, said the Spanish government had
authorized the extradition of Tweed as
a return for courtesy displayed by the
government of the United States in
similar cases.
The G. & o. stage from Redding to
Yreka was stopped on the 11th, between
Pitt River and Bass Station, and the
treasure box demanded. The box was
handed out and the mails were not in
interfered with. This is the fourth de-
mand made by the robbers for Wells,
Fargo & Co.'S box, and one for the mails
within ten days. Armed men are
lying in wait for the robbers.

CLOSING OF THE CENTENNIAL.

The great Centennial Exposition was
formally closed by President Grant on
the afternoon of the 10th of November
The ceremonies, though not as preten-
tious as were the opening exercises on
the 10th of May, were yet conducted
with pOmp and circumstance befitting
the nation and its hundred years of his
tory and of progress. Great numbers OF
people were in attendance. Shortly be-
fore . O'Clock, President Grant, es-
corted by Gen. Hawley, ascended the
platform, followed by the Centennial
Commissioners, hoard of finance, foreign
commissioners, and invited guests. AT
ter the excitement of the multitude, Oc-
casioned by the presence of Gen. Grant
had subsided, the orchestra, under the
direction of Theo. Thomas, performed
Wagner's Inauguration March, com
posed for the opening exercises on the
10th of May last. At the conclusion
Rev. Jas. A. Reiss offered prayer. A
chorus, accompanied by the orchestra
then sang the choral entitled, "Fu
gric," by Swabach, after which an ad
dress was delivered by the Hon. n. J
Morrill,, United States Centennial Com
missioner from Pennsylvania, the Chair
man of the executive committee. Th,
orchestra then rendered selections. AT
ter which Hon. Jno. Welsh, presiden
of the centennial board of finance, deliv
cred an address. After Beethoven

audience at length. Hadels "Hallelu
jah" chorus was next given by the or
chestran chorus, and Hon. Jos. r. Haw
ley, president of the United States Cen
tennial Commissioners, delivered an ad
dress reviewing the history of the Expo
sition. The audience joined in "AmeI
ica," when President Grant declared tn
international Exposition of 1876 CLOSED
The Doxology was sung by the chor III
and the audience accompanied, and tn
formal ceremonies were concluded. Th
!. ceremonies took place in Judges Hal

COUNTING THE ELECTORAL VOTE.

The counting of the electoral vote
takes place by Constitutional provision
on the second Wednesday in February.
One of the greatest farces in the revered
document known as the Constitution of
the United States is the manner desig-
mated for the election of President by
voting for electors instead of for the can
didate directly, and we confess to our
inability to discover the wisdom that
prompted the proviso. However, it is
law, and Constitutional law at that, and
as it was framed and enacted some years
before we were born, we feel no private
responsibility in the matter-and this
more especially as no woman had a
voice or hand in the absurdity. The
following is the provision alluded to:
The President of the Senate shall, in the
presence ofthe Senate and House of Represen
tatives, open all the certificates, and the votes
shall then be counted. The person having the
greatest number of votes for President shall bC
President, if such number be majority of the
whole number of electors appointed; and if nc
person have such majority, then from the per
son having the highest numbers, not exceed
ing three on the list of those voted for as Presi
dent, the House of Representatives shal
choose Immediately by ballot the President.

THE LIQUOR LAW.

One of the provisions of the liquor
law enacted by the late Legislature is as
follows:
1t shall be unlawful for any person to know
ingly sell, by agents or otherwise, any spiritu-
Gus or other intoxicating liquors to any minor,
for any purpose whatever, unless upon the
written order of the parent, guardian, or family
physician, or to sell the same to any intoxi-
Gated person, or to any person who is in the
habit of becoming intoxicated; and any person
violating the provisions of this section shall
forfeit and pay to the school fund the sum of
one hundred dollars for each and every ofTense,
to be collected by action on his bond, by any
citizen in the county wherein such offense may
have been committed.
Under the supposed sanction of this
law, we hear of one woman who has
visited the saloons her lord is wont to
frequent and requested the keepers
thereof not to sell him any more of the
ardent. We venture to hope that
whether the wife is sustained by the
law or not, the men appealed to will
keep the promise made to her.

ONCE AGAIN.

We must again appeal to our friends
to work in their respective localities for
the financial interests of the New
NORTHWEST. We have, since the COM
mencement of the new volume, sent out
a large number of bills, some of which
have met with prompt response, but a
large number yet remain unpaid. We
think our subscribers can scarcely real
ize the constant strain upon finance,
mind and energy that results from
keeping this journal before the public,
or all would feel an individual RESPONSE
bility about the matter that would cause
them not only to pay their bills when
presented, but to promptly prepay their
next years subscription. Mrs. Duni-
way has now been absent from home
nearly six months, and the date of her
return is not yet certain. Her pro-
longed absence from the field where she
has so energetically presented by her
personal labors the claims of the New
NORTHWEST since its first issue causes
many of the real friends of the journal
to relax their efforts in its behalf, and
while reading it from week to week in
quiet contentment, to forget tempora.

though perhaps natural, is just the re-
