From N. Y. Star.
The Third.Terr1 Conspiranv.

me tntrd' IeTn Conspiracy. i'
A bold intimation OF the real spirit
and purpose of the third-term mana
gers is given by the Times. That paper
says: "It is not doubted that Grant
would assert bis right to the office II he
believed he was honestly elected"
What does this mean?
lt does not mean that II he were
honestly elected there might be some
obstacle which he would have to over
come In order TO take his seat, for, II
the votes in the Electoral College show
majority for him no Democrat, GER
talnly, will dispute his election.
what 1t does mean is, that If there Is
any chance by force or fraud to pre-
vent the Inauguration of the Demo
cratic candidate, should he be success-
full at the bal llot-box, Grant sciH choose
to believe thdt he ,ods honestly elected
and proceed 10 carry out the cOnspiracv.
That is the object Of securing the
services of a strong man. '''''' ''t Ti't--s .
His strength is NJ 1, not to main
tain the right, but to accomplish the
triumph Of wrong; not to enforce the
will of :he people as expressed by the
result of the Presidential election, but
to install the third-lerm candidate in
any event, and if necessary against
that expressed will, aud in defiance Of
that result. "'
Let US say, here and now, that the
the Democrat JIG party will nvt submit
to such an exhibition of the astrong
mans" strength. i'
The infamous crimes by means of
which Rutherford B.l Hayes became
President ID fac o can never be tamely
borne again 1t is the power OF the
Democrats ih the two houses OF Con
grrss to provide for faithful recording
Of the verdict rendered by q majority
OF the voters on the I'd of November
next, and that record will be sustained
Whatever Grant and his fellow con-
splrators may will to the contrary. lf /.

Letter from SGn,I Townsend.

Mr.. Big A and Double S, of Black
bird, last night, says he accidentally
overheard some gentleman, he did
not know, say / did not oppose the
ship canal going up the Noxentown
Pond. never heard of a ship canal
going up Noxentown Pond, therefore,
there was nothing to favor or oppose.
Are you sure you accidentally heard
these gentlemen (you did not know
say a ship canal was going up Noxen-
town Pond or was Noxentown Pond
going up the ship canal. Such evil
dence in slander cases has put many
a poor greeny in Jail. Had / have
known you were merely young gos-
lin, standing on your fat feet trying
to air your young pin-feathers, I should
have taken no further notice, than to
laugh at your ignorance and impu-
dence, but you made a serious charge
of hypocrisy against me that could
not quietly submit to. My advice te
you, is to live on light diet, cruel and
pomade, until your brain more fully

endorses them all. He pledges himself to main
tain the results of the war, and the war amend
ments, yet he endorses the platform OF 1864
which declared the war failure, and the plat
form OF 1868, which declared reconstruction and
the consequent amendments unconstitutional
The platform OF 1868 also declares for soft mon-
ey, and that of 1880 for hard money. yet they
both receive endorsement. In shoit, the letter
is not mp to the expectations OF Washington
politicians, and they are not backward in con-
denning it.
Engsh's letter is regarded here as stump
speech of the lower order, written with but 1t
tie regard to truth or candor.
Next Thursday there meet in New York, by
invitation Of the National Republican Commit
tee, many prominent Republicans from all parts

will be there, also Senators Blaine Conkling,
Logan and Edmunds, Mr.. w. e. Chandler and
host of others. They meet for consultation,
to hear reports from the States, and to act up
on suggestions for the campaign in each. The
meeting will also signal the real opening OF the
campaign,-slow at first, growing warmer as the
October elections approach, and between them
and November reach the climax
Good words OF encouragement are received
here. From Indiana prominent Republican

tricts, and give Garfield 10000 majority. The
Eastern doubtfal States are improving with
each passing day. The fusion in Maine don't
fuse as was expected in New York Tammany
don't harmonze as was promised and IN Vr-
ginia the Democratic party is wide apart. Re-
publican prospects are excellent and should
stin ulate all to work hard from now until No
vember.
1t may be thought presumptuous bat If the
people of Maine understand their own iuter-
ests, as think they do, they will retain, if pos
sible, Mr.. Hamln .at his present post in the
Senate. We may have greater men, but none
truer than he, none OF more discernment, none
OF greater courage and fidelity. His long expe-
rience IN Congress make his services Of more
value than would be those OF less experienced
man. He is one Of those statesmen who stood
by the nation in It's darkest hour, few Of whom
are left believe we cannot afford to dispense
with Mr.. Hamlin's services so long as the mean

Those Wives.

III San Francisco and other large
towns Of California it is said that many
Of the married women past the middle
age, have been the wives of two, three,
and sometimes four or five different
men, owing to the freedom Of divorce
which used to exist, and still exists in
modified form, in the State. Women

treme marketableness, enhanced their
value by very broad coquetry, and dis
posed of themselves TO the highest bid

entertained proposals for another, and

Ie same wife i'll the space of twenty
our months. Some of the most matri-
nonially enterprising women in the
country journeyed thither twenty to
twenty-five years ago, and made their
marriages remunerative by getting settle
ments cash down before the tying of the
nuptial knot. The lives of not a few of
them would, if faithfully chronicled,
read like the most sensational of sensa-
ii ~ novels.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., July 81, 1880.

The Republicans have made splendid start
IN the Presidential race, and were never before
favored with so many auspices of success. Be-
sides the great advantage of initiation in this
campaign, important in every species of con-
flict, the Republicans begin to realize that their
candidate has many advantages over the pad
ded military shape that has been set up against
him, and they are furthermore encouraged by
the unity aid harmony which is becoming con-
spicuous in all their rank and file. When chief
talns, personally so antagonistic as Conkling
and Jewell, or Logan and Schurz, bend their
energies in a common cause, what may not be
expected from their united efforts?
Nothing, not even foreign war, would be
more calamitous than the accession OF the Dem
ocrats 10 power. In the tram OF Hancock would
follow at least half million OF the hungriest.
most wolfiish office seekers that famine, igno-
rance and Incidence ever brought forth. The
thousands OF places now filed by able and ex-
perienced men and women would be turned
over to this maurauding horde, and TO all the
confusion Of Babel would be added the wild
ruin OF looted public treasury. Said the Dem
ocratic editor OF one OF the best papers in the
South, after he had seen the Tammany crowd
at the late Cincinnati convention, "If 1 lived in
New York would be Republican"
Your correspondent was in Washington when
the Democrats got control OF the House OF Rep
resentatIves four years ago, and saw the hosts
of red-nosed, bear- eyed bummers that followed
in their train to get the few Offices that were
under the control OF the House. These thou
sands Of physically, morally and politically rot
ten men were but squad IN comparison to the
myriads that will swarm from all the sources OF
pollution that mark the places OF Democratic
stencil and strength.

Divorce in prUsSIn.

There is in Prussia custom, establish
e. - law, about which we presume but
~ littlc is known in this country, de-
signed to discourage divorce. When q
husband and wife "fall out" and one Of
them wishes f. be separated from the
other, It is necessary, before an appeal is
made to the law, to sec if the quarrel
ing couple as they are called, cannot be
reconciled.
The person wishing for divorce must
apply 10 the minister Of the parish, or To
the magistrate, who hears the story of
both husband and wife separately, and
then brings them together and urges
them to "make up" 1t is interesting 10

cessful. In the published report for two
years, it is stated that of IL 500 couples
which proposed to separate, reconcilia-
ton took place III $500 cases.
mis- law, which might be enacted IN
this country with good effect, reminds
one Of another custom which it is said
once prevailed in Germany. When a
married pair quarrelled, and wished for
legal divorce, they were first obliged
to pass 4 fortnight constantly in each
others society in a single room. They
had but one bed, one chair, one dish,
one spoon, in fact, only one OF any arti-
Gle. If, az the end of that time they
still wished to separate, the court would
hear the case. But usually they did not
wish it. In the fortnight Of trial, each
learned the lesson that mutual forbear-
ance and accommodation were necessa-
ry; and that lesson was all that was
needed to allow them TO live happily to-
oether.

AN AWFUL ORGANIzATIoN.-The Old maids
association of Geauga county, Ohio, had
picnic on tie lake recently, and mustered 66
souls. This society was an outgrowth OF the
war, and was organized in 1862 by 4 bevy of
young ladies whose brothers and sweethearts
were fighting for their country, and left them
without the resources OF male escort, except
the laggards who remained at home. Unwil-
hog to accept the gallantry OF these young
men, the young ladies' preferred to depend up
on themselves, and formed the ASSOCIATE ion
mentioned. Out Of revenge tie gallan;s dubbed
these independent damsels "old maids" and
they accepted the cognomen and made it their
own. humorous con stitution aud bylaws
