HELENA AS 1T rs.

EDITOR OF THE MONITOR Helena
is a town of six thousand inhabit-
ants, wedged in between bare hills
extending down towards the plains
as best it can among enormous piles
of stones and dirt, the debris of ex-
tensive placer mines. The miners
have scarcely spared room enough
for the road to get into town among
their heaps and holes. An unclean
business this placer mining, carried
on in mud and water, leaving CHASTITY
scars, heaps and holes on the sur
face. The town is the out-growth of
prosperous mining camp, the "Last
Chance" gulch, from which it is said
more gold has been taken than from
any other single locality in the world.
It's situation in the mining region
being the nearest point to the head
of navigation on the Missouri river
at Fort Benton, made Helena a dis
tributing center. The merchants
bought years supply of goods dur
ing the brief season of navigation.
It thus got start as chief CONNER
cial town of the territory, and it still
keeps the lead and will continue to
do so unless the railroad should de-
velope larger town in the Yellow
Stone Valley. Ugly to the eye, with
its scrambling, shadeless streets,
clinging to the hills, it's narrow
crooked thoroughfare and it's blotcf
of Chinese suburb. Helena is new.
ertheless, an attractive place. The

MR.. BEECHER'S FAILURE

Though Mr.. Beeeher has seeded
from the New York and Brooklyn
Congregational Association, the
church remains in it's old connection.
And his friend, Mr.. Thomas G..
Sherman, who stood by him in the
terrible ordeal through which he pass
ed few years ago in the Tilton-
Beecher affair, says that of the two
thousand members of Plymouth
Church, not over four hundred agree
in theological opinion with their pas
tor, and that ''alI the others would
support the orthodox dogmas." This
shows that a great many people of
earnest evangelical, orthodox views
have been attracted to Plymouth
Church by Mr.. Beecher's reputation
his skill in the use of language, and
his power of acting in the pulpit
and also that Notwithstanding his
wonderous popular gifts and the
very heterogeneous character of his
congregation he has not been able tc
draw after him more than one-fiftI
of the members of his church. 1t il
moreover evident that the distinctly,
character of this church will ceas,
with the close of Mr.. Beecher's Ia
bors, and that it will rapidly disinte
CRATE, as all churches gathered a
this has been, have done. MI

DIVORCES.

The subject of divorces is recely-
ing considerable attention from the
legislature, and there is a great di-
versity of opinion in regard to it.
Representative Thompson of this
county, would make habitual drunk
enness cause for divorce, and we
fail to see why this should not be
done. If there is anything that can
make man unfit for a husband it is
drunkenness. While drunkenness
may not be the sum of all villainies,
it is hard to conceive of anything
in the line of crime, abuse, abandon
ment, disgusting personal condition
or other thing that makes man more
unfit for a husband than drinking hab-
it's; and if a woman cannot be liber-
ated from a man of this kind, when
she desires to be, we can think of no
grounds for divorce.
Senator Crane of this county would
make adultry the only cause for di
vorce. This puts the thing, so far
as observation goes, into close linn
its. In several instances, it is prob
ably true that divorces are obtained
x-bop ~ x,oro loo++or o4boru1co. b,,t
as a rule, there are more bad matches
which result in sorrow, crime, do
nestle warfare and miserable off
spring, than there are divorces. There
are not many instances where men
get so seriously cheated in marriage
that divorce is necessary. II they
exercise common prudence and intel
ligence they can get the best end Of a
matrimonial bargain every time; but
the case is different with girls and
women; they are only marketable
commodities and rarely have opportu-
nifty to exercise their best Judgment in
selecting companions. They take
perilous risks at best, and when it
turns out that they get brutes, drunk
ards, adulterers, shiftless wretches
who, bring them to poverty and star
walton, and worthless creatures, who
are a curse to them and the world,
they ought to be set free by law.
The law now knows only a few
causes for enforcement, and if it is
limited to one cause only, many poor,

the men in this regard-will be doom.

abuse then they ought to bear from

are a few who hope by means of thu

any man who walks American soil.
To have come into the territory in
1862 is an honor here as great as a
lord in England. 1t is hundreds of
miles across a vast country to the

on. The only noticeable difference in

news of "the states is of slight in
terest and rarely mentioned, that To-
cal aft airs, including the days of the
Vigilance committee, are much more

helped hang dozen murderers and
robbers. Hemmed in by mountains
and separated from well settled por-

THE PROHIBITORY AMEND.
MENT.

Among the proposed amendments
to the constitution of the state of
Vermont to be considered by the leg
islature during the present session is
one relating to the manufacture and
sale of intoxicating liquors, other
than cider and wine made from the
fruits Of the state. Opposition to
this amendment has been expected
from certain parties, but many will
be surprised to learn of an opposi-
ton from an unexpected quarter,
viz the Woman's Christian Temper
ance Union of the state, which Or
ganization is anxious that the people
may not have an opportunity to set
tie the question for themselves. The
Union as plea usges opposition to
the amendment on the ground that
the clause relative to cider and wine
is in opposition to the spirit of pro-
hibition and unworthy of the advanc-
ed position in which the state now
stands. AS the Christian MESSENGER
says: We think the argument falla-
cious and sophistical. Personally we
would be glad TO Danish the whole
list of drinkables which tend to alco-
holic manifestations, from existence,
but we must recognize the fact that
a practicable amendment, even
though less stringent than total and
absolute destruction of alcoholics, is
better than an impractible one which
will die of its own weight when in the
| legislature, or passing there will
meet such fate by the verdict of
the popular vote. And we suspect
that this plea, although professedly
in the interests of temperance legis-
lation, with the design to kill the
movement by overlooking with i'm
practicable conditions. We have nc
defence to offer in behalf of cider
and wine, for we believe them to be
the prevailing curse of our agricult
ural districts ; but they are used, espec
tally the former, in legitimate man
ner when past the season of fermen
tation, and developed for Legitimate
use, and the proposed amendment
duly provides for the restraint SO a.
to prevent illegitimate use. We shall
look with very suspicious regard
upon any protesting friend of tenn
perance who makes so weak pie;
as this the excuse for refusing hi
support to the measure when tn
test-day comes and we make the rec
ord, as we intend to, of the name
in which each legislator meets hi
opportunity to aid in renting thi
question to the sovereign people

The British parliament assemblies,
to resume the work suspended five
months ago. During this suspen-
sion some greats event have occur
red, and probably some opinions
have changed as to the policy of the
government. The first business to
be settled is that of the closure, or,
as we call it, the previous ques-
ton" by which the majority in the
house of commons may put an end
to debate and call for q vote. This
is Mr.. Galdstone's measure and it
remains to be seen how fully ne car
ries the liberals with him. as many of
them are disposed to give the minor
ity better share in deciding when
discussion upon question shall be
closed. No doubt the house will
want to hear from the government on
Egyptian matters, and the Irish ques-
ton is quite sure to come to the
front, So intimate has become our
connection with England that the
action of parliament and the drift
and tone of party sentiment in the
kingdom, are more closely followed
than formerly and better understood.
The bill introduced in the Vermont
legislature, making it lawful to adj
minister an9sthetics to q criminal
before hanging him, is intended,
probably, to mitigate the barbarous
and bungling work of the hangmen.
But if a criminal is to be made in
sensible before being taken to the
gallows, why hang him at all? Or,
if he must be hanged, why not kill
him first and hang his corpse? The
feeling is growing among those who
still believe in capital punishment.
that the spectacle of the gallows has
little moral effect upon the crimina
classes. In the more enlightened
states an execution is not performed
in public, but the number of specta
tors is limited as mnch as possible
If capital punishment is to be con
tinued, the seclusion of the criminal
death scene might with profit be car
ried still further. Why not, afte
the last words have been said, shu
him into a dark cell and suffocat
him with chloroform or kill him wit
the electric current? To half xii
him and then hang him is a needles
expenditure of labor.-SpringieJ
