have been hardly colder than October usually is

out of doors apparently as free and full of life as

the flowers were chilled, and dropped their forms

Law of Marriage.

A very curious decision has just been
reached in France on the law of marriage.
1t will not stand, we are sure, for if leg
islation were needed to upset such de-
cision, the Republican Legislature would
soon give the decision its deathb1ow.
In 1886 priest made will in favor of
his nephew and niece. Some years after
wards he quilted the service of the Church,
married, and had children. Upon this
the nephew and niece brought an action
against their uncle demanding that the
marriage should be annulled; and this
annullation, pronounced by the Court of
Rennes, has been confirmed by the Court
of Cessation. The reason of this decision
| is, remarks of RepQbEique FrGncaise, that
the magistrates who pronounced judg-
ment are convinced that in this affair the
law of the State is subordinate to that of
the Roman Church, and that social saliva
ton imposes upon them the mission of
maintaining intact Catholic discipline.
Therefore the uncle was not married, and
his children are illegitimate; the Court of
Cessation holding that ''there are ex-
Judges, ex-soldiers, ex-lawyers, but no
ex-priests. The sacerdotal character is
indelible; and when once he has received
the sacred uncsion, the priest forever re-
tains the mark. He may desert his affairs,
he may abdicate his functions, he may be
stripped of his gown as unworthy to be a
minister, he may adjure his belief; apos.
tate, criminal, and guilty of sacrilege, he
remains priest"
The decision, it will be evident, restt
upon the opinion that in matters affectins
public morals, courts are to be governed
by the will of the Roman Catholic Church
and as the Church does not recognize sucl
marriages, so the State must ignore them
: This will not hold water even in France
All that has been played ont. Italy ha
spcwed the doctrine out of ITS mouth. l
has however, been taught by the highes
authority, in this country, Roman Catho
lie, that the State is under obligation t
legislate for the Church in obedience t
>, her behests. But the doctrine has IL
support, no faith, no respect; and the ex
= element now produced by this decision
will hasten the impending dissolution o
Church and State In France. Gambett
said, last winter, sit is better, for tn
present, to let things remain as thew are ::
t., but with the consolidation of the Reput
lie, the Romish Church will be left to loo
out for itself. AS other churches do

An Obtuse MAN.

She was stylish young lady about eigh-
teen years old, and to accommodate a
friend she took the baby out for an air
ing. She was wheeling it up and down
the walk, when an oldish man, very deaf
came along and inquired for a certain
person supposed to live on that street.
She nearly yelled her head off trying to
answer him, and he looked around, caught
sight of the baby. and said:
s'Nice child, that. I suppose you feel
proud of him ?'' ...
''It isn't mine!'' she yelled at him.
s'Boy, eh! Well, he looks just like
you.''
''It isn't mine!'' she yelled again, but
he nodded his head and continued:
''Twins, Ell! Where's the other one?"
Despairing of making him understand
by word of mouth, She pointed at the baby,
at herself and then shook her head.
"Yes-yes, see, t'other twin in the
house. Their father is fond of them, of
course?''
She turned the cab and hurried the 9th
er way, but he followed, and asked:
''Do they kick round much at nights ?''
F'I tell you faint mine!' she shouted,
looking very red in the face. ...
''I think you're wrong there" he an
swered. "Children brought up on the
bottle are apt to pine and die,'
She started on run for the gate, but
before she had opened it he came up, anG
asked
''Have to spank 'em once in while, ]
suppose?''
She made about twenty gestures in hall
a minute, and he helped the cab through
the gate and said:
"Our children were all twins, and III
send my wife down to give you some ad
vice, You sec" .-.
But she picked up flOwer-pOt ant
flung it at him. He jumped back, and a
she entered the house, he called out:
"Hope insanity won't break out on til,
twins :" ..s.

Marble Fawn, 'The Satyr of Paraxalites,'
The loveliest face you ever saw. 1t was
only by looking carefully under the cur
ly locks that you could detect the asinine
ears. Here also was the ''Dying Gladia-
tori and tVenus." Coming home, we
stopped at the Capuchin Monastery, where
the rooms are decorated with the bones
and skulls and anatomies of the deceased
members. A more hOrrid sight it would
be difficult to see; but they enjoy it, and
their highest aim and hope is to have their
bones exposed there, likewise; so one of
the monks told DIR. Loomis. I cannot be-
gin to tell you of all the statuary, flowers,
ruins, gardens, scenery, and beggars we
saw to-day.

1t would be difficult to prove anything
more clearly than the Potter committee
has proved that it was the determination
of the Democratic leaders at the time of
the electoral count to inaugurate another
geneaal Southern rebellion. Hear Colo
mel Burke before that committee: '"There-
fore, with us an attempt to inaugurate
the Packard government was bound to
plunge Louisiana into anarchy and strife !;
and if anarchy and strife should come, we
preferred to make national issue, in
which our national friends would be in
vOlved as we'll as ourselves. ."-NelO Re

Senator Owens only damaged the De-
mocracy by his attempt to defend the
Legislative action on the Soldiers Or
phans' Home. Nearly every Republican
paper in the State has assisted In the easy
exposure of his sophistry, and we do not
notice that judiciOus Democratic editors
take much stock in his letter, which fact
is a misfortune to the Republicans. The
more the letter is printed, the greater will
be the public indignation at the reorgan-
izing act. Besides, the Senator has placed
himself in the predicament of declining q

Two BaIlols 10 Each White Voter.

The Charleston Is. c. Neaos and GottT-
Ter, the leading and ablest newspaper of
the bull-dozers in that State, says: ''The
sentiment of the State is that the negroes
shall not be molested so long as they stay
quiet and do not put themselves forward
as political leaders. The understanding
was that they should let politics alone"
No one who pays any attention to the ut
terances of the Southern press can fail to
observe that it is becoming more and more
outspoken and its tone more and more de-
tiant. The questions involved in a late
utterance of General Beatty, of Ohio, are
not only pregnant with Importance, but
timely and pertinent. He says: ''Shall
the Southern white man be permitted to
cast two ballots to GAe Northern white
mans one? Shall the South have thirty
representatives in the electoral college
and the national Congress, based ON the
freedmen, and yet be permitted to dis
franchise the freedmen"
