Forced Into a Hateful Mar
FiaRe.

An application for divorce filed in the
office of the clerk in chancery at Tren-
ton, N. j., last week, reveals remarka-
BILE story. The application is made by
Mary j. Morris, aged eighteen, daughter
of Edward J. Morris, of No. 220 Walnut
street, Newark. Her position sets forth
that on August "a she came to this city
to make some purchases, and, while
looking in window of store IN the
Bowery, she was accosted by a young
man whose name she subsequently learn
ed was Charles j. Lecuw, of second ave-
nue., near the Bowery. She paid no at
tention TO him and moved away, when
he followed her and persisted in making
her acquaintance. He one day induced
her to walk in the Bowery, drueged her
and forced her by threats to consent to a
marriage with him. The ceremony was
performed at the Five Points Chapel by
the Rev. g. s. Plumley. Immediately
after, the giIl states, she lost conscious
ness. 1t is further set forth in the ap-
plication that Lecuw is now endeavoring
to take her from her fathers home in
Newark. She prays that the alleged
marriage be annulled. Lecuw has re-
tanned council and threatens to compel
Mr.. Morris to produce his daughter in
court, claiming that the father has alb
Quoted her and deprived her of liberty OF
of choice. Lecuw's object in the alleged
forced marriage is believed 10 be the ex-
tortion of Inoney.-Ner York Tribune.

ple their leaders, II they are judicious and
determined, to impose upo n the party
definite policy.
Leaving out Nevada, from which deci-
sive reports have not vel come, and Calf
fornia, whose delegation Is ii present tied,
the democrats have majority in nineteen
State delegations and the republicans in
seventeen If Nevada and California
should both give republican majorities

The General Result.

THE NEXT SENATE's DEMOCRATIC MA
JoRITY NINE-THE HOUSE DEMOCRAT
IC BY 20 MAJORITY.
The New York Herald estimates that
in spite of the democratic losses of Com
gressmen, which are serious in this and
some other States, they will have ma
jority in both houses in the next Congress-
In the Senate, after the 4th of next March
they viii have majority of nine without
including Senator David Davis, who fig
ures as an independent. In the House
leaving aside California, which does not
elect its four representatives until next
year, and which now has two of each par
ty, the democrats will have majority of
over twenty, according to present ac-
coun's, which cannot be much changed
by fuller reports. This leaves out of the
count the greenbackers, for it would be a
mistake to count these as swelling the
democratic majority, because some of
them are of republican antecedents, and
therefore likely 20 vote with the republi-
cans on general questions. But party
bonds hang so lightly on Congressmen in
these days andNboth parties are so devoid
oi questions on which their members
agree that partisan majorities are mainly
important because they will control the
election OF Speaker and the formation OF
The committees of both houses. There
will be, OF course, other contingencies in
which the fact that both houses are demo-
cratic will be of moment; and it may
happen that the possession of this pre-
dominance may force upon the democrats

THE IMPoLICy of the present high
salaries is well illustrated in the contest
of Pennsylvania. Don Cameron is one
OF her wealthiest citizens. His salary
for six years is thirty-six thousand dol
lars. BY the expenditure of ten thousand
lie secures his reelection and the interest
Of one hundred thousand dollars year
for six years. This money is sent to him
monthly and therefore the interest is com.
pounded monthly and by the end of six
years his salary will be equal to the pay
ment of about $4,000. He does nothing
IN the Senate scarcely and can as well
attend to his own business there as he
could elsewhere, SO that he finds seeking
office the best investment for his ten
thousand dollars. Had the salary been
$1,000 a year, or IS day, as it was in
lo5l, it would have secured the services
OF better man, as Don would likely
have found better investment for his
money.

The RIGHT TO a SECRET BALLOT
The Legislature OF Minnesota, at its last
session, for the purpose of preventing
frauds in elections, enacted a law re
quiring that in cities when a ballot
should be cast at any election the judges
of the poll should endorse ON its back a
number which should correspond with
the number of the vote on the poll-book
Ihls act the District Court of Ramsay
county has pronounced unconstitutional
as violative of the right of the voter to
cast secret ballot, as the numbering of
each ballot enables any one SO disposed
to identify it, and discover by whom il
was cast.

WHY SHOULD the National Banks OBJ
ject to taking their bonds back and re-
covering the money for them? They
could invest this money no doubt at six
per cent. The proposition if carried out
would save the nation seventeen million
dollars year and the banks would con
troll their own money, and not tax the
people with seventeen millions of dollars
of interest. Seventeen millions is nearly
one fourth of the whole cost of running
the government under James Buchanan
in 1860.

about the public honor-and the honor
Of the public debt, especially by the gold
gamblers. There was nothing said about
honor, however, when they were dishon-

Bald Moultain.

1t was reported Il few weeks ago
that this mountain, situated in the
upper portion OF Spartanhurg county,
from some unknown cause, was found
to be split i'll two from top to bottom,
and That much excitement prevailed
among the citizens Of the surround
ing country. TO ascertain the facts !,
that enterprising journal Tie Neus
"nd Co"rio dispatched IL special re-
porter to make examination and
report results. a crack. about one
hundred yards in length, about four
feet in width and Of unknown depth
was dis covered running due east and
west, and but short distance from
the brow Of the precipice This
crevlce has every appearance Of u
recf ut origin, but seems to be nothin q
more than large section of the cliff
separating from the body of the
mountain, and will result some day in
land slide similar to other phcno-
mena Of like character in noun
tai ,ous regions. No sign of the re-
ported volcano to rival Vesuvius wa
discovered, or the smell of sulphur.
or appearance Of smoke.
l Three years ago this mountain gave
forth certain rumbIing sounds which
threw the whole country into state
of terror and wild confusion. The
Judgment Day was thought to be
near at lhand, prayer meetings were
held and many of these old mountain
sinners Joined the church preparato-
ry to being swallowed up, it was no
telling where and when. Three
years experience, however, with hard
times, apple-jack brewing and Rev
cnuc officers nbated somewhat their
religious zeal, and "Old Bald" by
way Of reminder shakes his hoary
head and gives this ominous grin.
