CIinging to Her Mother.
AN AFFECTING SEQUEL TO A NEW
JERSEY DIVORCE SUIT.

JERSEY DIVORCE SUIT.
A most affecting scene transpir-
ed in court on Friday last in Pas
sale City, New Jersey. 1t grew
out of divorce obtained by Will
liam E. Calender, a wealthy bro
ker, mainly through a paper sign
ed by his wife confessing a crimi-
nal intimacy, which she now as
serts was obtained through false
promises of condonement of an Of
fence never committed. The de-
cree of divorce directed the moth
er to surrender her three children
to the father. The oldest child,
named Kittie, an intelligent and
pretty girl, aged ID, declined to
go, clinging to her mother and de-
claring that her father had treated
her mother unkindly, 1t was in
vain that the vice chancellor pic
tured the wealth of her father and
the poverty of her mother; but
Kittie replied that a crust and a
straw he'd with her mother were
dearer to her than all her fathers
riches During this interview not
an eye in the courtroom remain
ed dry. The decision was given
that the father must have posses
sion; but the mental strain of the
scene threw Kittie into a fever,
and at home she grew rapidly
worse, so that when Under Sheriff
Drew on Monday called at the
house of Mrs. Calender, he found
the girl in a very critical condi-
ton. She is in nearly continual
state of delirum, and constantly
raves about being separated from
her mother. She frequently i'm
AGNES that the officers of the law
are tearing her from her mothers
arms and pleads piteously for help.
The scenes at her bedside are
heartrending. The physicians in
charge have given up all hope of
her recovery. Under Sheriff Drew
reported the case to the Vice
Chancellor, who at once directed
that Mr.. Calender furnish nurses
and proper care for the child, and
that the latter remain at the home
of her mother until it is safe to
move her.

In an affecting account of his

mus Ward says:
There was great many affec-
tim ties which made me banker
after Betsy Jane. Her fathers

ourn squenched their thirst at the
same spring both our old mares
had stars on the forred the mea-
sizes broke out in both families at
nearly the same time; our parents
betsy James and mine) slept reg
ularly every Sunday in the same
meetin's house, and the MAJORS
used to observe, How thick the

Future Of the Republic.

From the London Telegraph, May ID. j
Whom, in 1875. the thirteen
North American colonies put forth
that Declaration of Independence
which preclntled the birth Of Iia-
ton, the combined white popula-
tion inhabiting them did not ex-
coed two and half million souls.
Yet they had the courage to throw
down the gage of battle to Pow
err, with which, in Daniel Web
ster's words, for purposes Of for
eigu conquest and subjugation,
Rome, in the height Of her glory,
was not to tie compared; a Power
which has dotted over the surface
of the whole globe with her pos
session and military posts, whose
morning drum beat. following the
sun and keeping company with
the hours, circles the earth with
one continuous and unbroken
strain oi martial airs Of England
Fourteen years later camel 1880,
the first census of population ia
ken i'm the United States, and it
Was found that within the borders
of the young nation there was not
quite four million souls. At the
expiration of ten years it appear
ed, upon taking the second census,
that the population was little
more than five and quarter mil
lions, having increased between
1890 and 1900 at the rate of thirty
five per cent. In a short time the
tenth census of what has long
been o mighty people will be ta-
ken, and we risk little in saying
that, in Joseph Hume's phrase,
"the tottle of the whole" will show
a population of at least fifty mil
lions especially If the immigrants
who are now pouring into the
United States in vast numbers are
not omitted from the calculation.
In other words, the population of
the great Republic in 1880 will be
their population in 1776 multiple
ed by twenty, and were it likely
that the same ratio of increase
could be maintained for another
century, the mind of man would
sink before the effort ofimagining
what 1t is possible for the monster
Republic to be in 1880. However
boundless the resources OF the
North American continent may
be, 1t can hardly be expected that
the second century of the United
States will be celebrated by a
thousand million human beings,
and yet such would be the result
of multiplying fifty millions, by
twenty. Anyhow it is certain
that a century hence no such as
semblage of men speaking the
same language and amenabie to
the same general traditions of feel
ing, habit and education, will ever
have been gathered together upon
earh as it will then probably Oc-
cupy the great Western Cont
| nent.
