JrBCE JAMESON on DIVORCE.

While the question Of divorce is exciting
60 much interest in the public mind and is
;hc subject Of SO much debate, a very timely
contribution } the literature of the subject is
an article by Judge John a. Jameson OF
Chicago in the April number Of the NORTH
american Reuiep. Judge Jamesons opin-
ions will carry great weight from his ac-
knowledgcd emincnce in the legal profession,
and from his long and intimate acquai ntance
with the practical side Of the question. His
general views are nearly coincident with
those heretofore expressed by the Ere E
PEEss, and formulate, indeed, the judgment
of the great majority of practical men on
this much-veXed subject. A resume of
Judge Jameson's Article will be Of general
interest.
Speaking first of divorce laws and their
administration in the Western States, Judge
jameson says that no city has suffered more
from its supposed laXity than Chicago. Con-
sidering The orisiL and magnitude of its
population made up by the confluence of the
separate Overilows of all nations, that city

relative number Of its divorces. Libcrality
in granting divorces, however, is not New
England idea. Before the rise of Christianity,
the leading nations Of the world allowed un-
limited divorce. 1t WAS the law of the Hin
docs, the Chinese, the Jews, the
Romans, The ancient Briions, and with
some reservations, Of the Greeks
Christianity, Tc.enacting the supposed
divine law placed strict limits to the
right Of divorce combining it to single cause,
adultery. From the union of the Christian
and Roman arose the canon law, which, as
the law of the church of Rome, became, as
to marriage and divorce, that of Chrstea-
dom. The early reformers revoltcd against
the canoniCal restrictions imposed by the
churcl. and in all communities in which
their principles have prevailed more liberal
system Of divorces has been established
Lberallty in granting divorces Is but step
in the general movement, for greater social
freedom Which charicterizes our modern
age. II New England has become distin-
guisled for il, il is because she has reverted
farlhest toward the original type,

An Important series OF Articles.

Al i portant undertaking just begun
by the FREE Press is the publication of Il
series of articles upon the fauna and flora Of
Vermont, The former written by Mr.. +. Ii.
llerr.ck of the Roek Point Institute, whose
articles in the lScjtnHfc american and other
perio cis have given him wide reputa-
ton, and the latter Ivy George Ii. Perkins,
Howard Professor OF Natural History in the
University of Vermont. These articles
while exhaustive and thorough, will be writ
ten in popular style, and will, we think, be
found Of interest and value to all readers.
Papers in both series will be published at
frequent intervals throu thout the season and
the whole will constitute IA full and complete
accom-, # the flowers and the birds and wild
animals of Vermont. We havcgone to large
expense IN procuring these articles, but we
are sure that We will be well repaid in the
increased attractiyeness and value of our pa
per, We commend the series TO the attention
of our readers as well worthy of perusal and
of permanent preservation.
