upon the subject, at which gentle
men of the Legislature and others
have freely expressed their views
upon the subject of roads in gener-
al. The general expression of opin-
ion is that the law needs amend
ment in several particulars. While
it saves the towns from the annoy
ance of frequent claims for damages
on the highways, it has not improved
the roads in corresponding ratio.
The highways all over the state are
horribly bad, worse than the former
law, is the general statement. The
law imposes too little responsibility
upon the town authorities for the
faithful performance of their duties.
| We do not understand that there is
any desire to repeal the law. Its
provisions are good as far as they
90, but it needs amendment, and for
this purpose several bills have been
introduced, from which the commit
tee will no doubt be able to nearly
perfect the law. There should be
no steps backward in a matter of
such vital Importance to the people.
The subject of Divorce is again
before the legislature. A bill has
been introduced into the senate MAX
ing habitual drunkenness of either
party legal cause of divorce. A
similar bill in the house was dismis-
sed last week, but was again before
it on motion to reconsider on Tues
day afternoon, and killed so that it
will stay killed. A few years ago
the attention of the people was di-
rected to the facility and frequency
of divorces. Our court dockets were
loaded with applications. The NOR
al and Christian sentiment of the
State was alarmed, and, as result
of the discussions then entered into,
the law upon our statute books was
adopted. 1t was not exactly what
was demanded by the religious senti-
ment of the people, but it was step
in advance. Under its operation di-
vorces have lessened in number.
The courts have been more cautious
in granting them. 1t is more diff
cult to obtain divorces under the
present law. The number of appli.
cations for divorce is smaller. Why
change the law? Why open the
door which the Christian sentiment
of the state seeks to close? Why
add another to the legal causes fol
divorce, and thus help to lessen the
sanctity of the marriage relation ?

Mr.. ALFRED SPEER.-D Dear Sir: The
visit which | made last year to your
Vineyards, wine-pTesses and vaults at
Passaic, n. J.. satisfies me thoroughly
that the wines produced by you are pure
and unadulterated, and the very best
that can be offered to the public for
medicinal uses.
Acting upon my favorable impression
at the time, have since recommended
the Port Wine; more particularly in my
practice, and am satisfied with marked
benefit to my patients.
There can be no better proof to the
doubling mind, as to the Wine being
made of the finest OpOrtO Grape, than a
visit to the acres of land covered with
the vine bearing the luxuriant fruit.
Wishing you success in your praise
worthy enterprise, remain respectfully
yours, ALEX. +. Mort, NJ. d.

followed by Mr.. Scoville, and has de.
clared that his own conception of the
defense was the only true one, and
he would not trust the best man in
America to close his case for
him, yet he listened to the
speech without interruption, except to
approve or emphasize some of the
points made by the speaker. He did
not forget his own speech, however, and
requested Judge Cox to read it in the
newspapers because ne wanted to talk
to him about it.
Mr.. Scoville devoted his attention prin-
cipally to correcting what no said were
mis- statements Of law aud of fact in Mr..
Davidge's opening address for the prose-
cutiop. He said he had framed in his
own mind an indictment for conspir-
acy to hang the prisoner. The conspir-
ators he had in mind were the District
Attorney, Lawyers Porter and Davidge
and five of the expert witnesses for the
Government. There were twenty
counts in this mental indictment, the
first of which was that they had per.
verted the law in this case. On
this point he spoke of Lawyer Porter's
introduction of what Judge Davis said
about insanity in his decision in the
Coleman case in New York City. This
quota ion from Judge Davis, he claimed,
he i no place there, and he averred that
Judge Davis had gone outside Of the
case before him and attempted to in
fuence this case.
Mr.. Scoville also pointed out what
he claimed were deviations from or
Misrepresentation of the testimony
by the prosecution. He did not specify
the remaining counts in his sup
posititious Indictment. He ar
gued that if Guiteau's mind was over
powered by the consciousness that the
Deity commanded his act, and if it was
the result of mental disease, then the
act, from Guiteau's own point Of view,
was right, and he WAS not responsible.
