the dispatch reads, VIM. A. Starr
was married TO a woman in Ohio,
moved to Iowa, and obtained divorce
through a Chicago divorce lawyer.
Upon the same day he married an
other woman i'm Iowa The courts Of
the latter States declared the divorce
proceedings illegal and the second
marriage adultery. On Monday the
Chicago court held that the divorce
was valid according TO the laws Of Ill
inois. 1t is therefore illegal for Starr
10 live with either wife. although mar

LEAVES FROM NEW MExIcAN TRAVELS.
LAS VEGAS, n. NJ, Nov. l6, 1880.
Editors journal
Ihave for sometime given the read
ers of the JOURNAL . rest on Mexican
oddities; in this I will give some more
Of the curions habits of this queer
race. The more I see Of them the
greater interest I take in studying their
habits and customs.
Since my last 1 have made trip in
to the mountains, northwest Of here.
I was provided with good team, the
driver was q splendid fellow who could
talk the Spanish language well. My
other companion was large No. l
six shooter This fellow had strap
ped around me by q belt filled with
cartridges. From Las Vegas we first
stopped at Las AliinOs, from there to
Sapel:o; from there to Rincon Luco-
late, from there to Marc and then to
La Cneva, then home. On account
Of not having time I did not go to
Toas. The trip was q grand one, al
though quite cold. We were in the
mountains most all the time. I was
surprised to find the Tucolate and
Marc valleys such nice ones up there
way in the mountain range were beau
tiful cultivated valleys. each valley
producing q large amount of small
grain. Here each valley, distinct by
itself, has q town in which IL q good
mill to grind their wheat and corn.
They are thickly settled with fine
farms. These valleys look as il they
are entirely surrounded by high noun
tains, only small gap or gaps to get
out. Some places they are one mile
and probably two wide. In Marc /
met Mr.. Frank Metzger, who inform
ed me he came into the valley in l847,
and has lived there ever since. He
stated that when he first came into the
valley it looked the same then as it does
now under higher state of cultiva-
ton. They claim their average yield
for wheat Is 60 bushels per acre. OF
course it is raised entirely by irriga-
ton. They run the water very easily
from the mountains by bitches to any
part of the valley. They also raise
vegetables to q great extent; must say
was surprised to find the like in q
mountain range. While on our trav-
els we were treated to a good snow.
One place we were hemmed in by
mountains almost on all sides. We
could look up and feel as il We were
in the bottom of an immense funnel,
and the said funnel was being filled
up with snow. 1t was q grand sight,
and in some cases q serious one. 1t
does not take long to fill up these mar
row passes and blockade the traveller.
AS we were passing through the val
ley the clouds extended below the
mountain peaks from side to side.
There We were shut up on all sides
with the top put on.
