DirOrceS IN KOx.uu:.j.z,

Bucharest correspondent Of the Lon
don Times says divorces are extremely
common there, and con sidered as one Of
the usual attendants of society. The
Roumanians say that some men and their
wives will always quarrel, and sometimes
separate. This happens in all countries;
therefore it is better to part quietly and
remain good friends, SO to speak, than to
live in continual wrangling, or separate
after divorce suit and part enemies for
life. The following incident Of this Gus
tom is narrated: II knew Young man
here who informed me that he had been
recently divorced from his wife; this he
did in a casual conversation, and without
any of the embarrassment that would at
tend such information in an English city.
Some time afterwards I had occasion to
call at his residence, and was presented
by HIM to his mother, and then, much to
my astonlshment, to his ex-Wife, who had
called to visit them with their little
daughter. There they bad pleasant
chat together. When I reflected on the
probable result to hair and eyes which
would ensue from meeting between an
Anglo-Saxon mother and her divorced
daughrer-in-law, was somewhat stag
gered in trying to institute a mental com
parison between the merits of the two
systems"

The Court.

Inc Court.
This week is being used in trying
criminal cases, and considerable prog
ress has already been made. The "buf-
falO thieves" and Barnet depot burglars
have been disposed of, and as we go to
press, James Hinch is being tried for
embezzlement of funds from express
packages at McLeran's. The defense
is endeavoring to criminate A. B. Norris,
for whom Hinch worked. Richard Pea
body's counsel have got his case put
over to another term, and his bail has
been fixed at $4,000, in default of which
he has been remanded to Jail. The
case of Stokes, arrested for procuring
abortions, has been set for trial next
Monday. The feeling is gaining ground
that he will not be tried this term. His
bail is fixed at $4,000. All the cases
that can be put by this term undoubt-
edly will be. Criminals are afraid they
will get justice under the present states
attorney.

There are many suggestions as to
future graduating exercises of the Acad-
eniy, as people generally agree that the
last was intolerable. Some say why
not have them in the day time, like the
colleges. Others say, issue tickets, and
only as many as the hall will seat. The
other, and seems to us better suggestion
IS, charge twenty-five cents admission,
and let the money go towards class ex-
penses. This will help the class in ex-
pepses which are yearly growing larger,
aud also help those who wish to hear
the exercises.

state tended to show that Hinch was in
the employ A. B. Norris who had charge
of the business of the U. S. &, Canada
Express Co.: that certain sums of money
were paid to Hinch to be sent by ex-
press, which sums never reached the
persons to whom sent: that Hinch used

several off-hand speeches by Messrs.
