New Postal Note.

The Postoilico department has con.
cluded to issue postal currency and
the notes will readily gain favor with
the people, as they will serve to accom-
modate them in their business transac.
tons with parties at IL distance. The
fact that small sums can thus be carried
makes the method peculiarly advantage
oup, as $50 out of every 1000 orders are
for - or less. The limit Of single
money orders is raised from $50 to 500,
the following scale being adopted Not
exceeding $40, $ cents; $40 to $lj, 10
cents; So to $50, Is cents $50 to $40
20 cents $40 to $50 % cents $50 to
500, 80 cents 500 to S7O 50 cents $40
to $50 80 cents, $50 TO 800, A. cents.
The reduction on sums under $40 from
present money order rates il one fifth.
Sums not exceeding - will be but
cents, or reduction of about two thirds
the. present rates. The postal notes
will be issued payable to bearer simply,
there being no expressive letter Of ad-
vice attending it, and they will bc good
for three months, after which time the
bearer, il he neplccts to get his money,
must send to Washington. The object
OF this is to prevent It being uscd for
general circulation. For odd amounts

Divorce DOlngs Dlgested.

There is spasm of alarm over the
discovery, says the Altoona Times, that
il is easier to get divorce in Pennsyl.
vania than almost any state of the union
1t isn't any wonder either. Our staid
old Presbyterian population has been
thanking heaven that in this respect
our state is not rs other states, such ms
Indiana and Illinois are, and ontrasting
the superior social morality that has
resulted from our closer conformity to
the scriptural standard for so long Il
time, that the dictum of a Philadelphia
Judge, that instead Of being strictor we
are really looser in this respect, than
most other communities, is calculated
To stArtle them out OF their sclfsati.lied
dreams ofrropricty, and security. And
yet we advise them not 10 get too cx'
cited about the matter. Though divorce
is rapidly increasing in Pennsylvania,
though every county court is grinding
out such cases by the dozen every term,
there isn't much danger that tho mar.
rage tie is about to become "a rope of
sand to our people and Il general rush
to plurality, or Oneida promiscuity
about to take place. The truth is that
it isn't the law that keeps up the mar
rage institution in community like
this. Marriage, monogomjc marriage,
is an institution of the white race older
than any Of its laws, and founded
deeper than any law ia the habits and
traditions of the race ~anctiicd and
glorihcd rs it afterwards was hy being
adopted a. a part of the christian rr.
ligion, il has acquired depth aud
strength of root such as no other hu
man institution has. There is more
danger OF the common law Of England
being abolished than Of the one wife
marriage system being destroyed. There
is infinitely more danger Of the political
commonwealth of Pennsylvania being
obliterated from the map than OF the
family as we know it, being even 'cri
ously threatened, in our society. No, 1t
i. not law that upho'ds the fabric of our
laws. Abolish all the marriage and
divorce laws to morrow, and men aud
women would still 90 on for ages. to
marry and give in marriage, and raise
families as their fathers did before them.
In fact, except for the confusion that
would result in matters Of property, and
the abolition OF all marriage laws would
make very little difference with the
marriage relation in Pennsylvania Pub.
lie opinion, the real ruler Of the world
in social matters. would still compel
marriage, and frown down divorces that
ought not to be granted And as long
as the present public opinion exists
which will be for ages probably tho
good people Of this state need fear no
inundation Of divorce upon them. The
increase Of divorce in the last few years
is rapid, but not a, all alarming It is.
for the most part, an increase only in
those classes which, il denied divorce
here. would either get it elsewhere, or
by desertion and adultery, get what
they consider its equivalent. When all
this class takes advantage oi tho new
laIlty OF the laws. the increase will stop,

4 Hopeful Sign OF Otherwise.

The reports OF the bureau OF statistics
lust issued present an encouraging ign
to the protectionists, though 1t j. not
clear to the general spectator Of events
how benefit j. to be deprived from it,
According TO this report the volume OF
exports of butter and cheese declined
materially during the months Of Jauu.
ary and February. That is to say that
during the first two months of lS>2 the
cheese exported amounted to 100000
pounds, while during the same months
OF the present year the amount was less
than 100000 pounds. The comPari,
son in butter is made for the tc'. months
ending with the close of February and
the falling oT aggregates about 5000.
600 pounds
Now to the protection monopolist
these figures must present an exceed.
ingly cheerful aspect OF trade. The
difference between the exports Of last
year and those Of this are o' course
within the borders Of our own glorious
country spreading wealth and comfort
broadcast everywhere, and the protec
ZIONIST Mark Tapleys must be CORES
pondingly jolly in contemplation Of the
fact, II may require a specious sort of
reasoning to arrive at the conclusion,
hut the logic which the pyotec,ioni,t-
employ in advocacy of their here-y Is
easily applicable to this. For example,
they say that by prohibiting the imPor
tation of foreign goods Americans
have opportunity to get rich IN trading
among themselves II this is true, why
is not the parallel proposition equally
clear II expectation il avoided, the
commodity remains a. subject OF
barter among the home producers and
consumers, and 10y parity of reasoning
both are put on the high road to wealth.
The producers of butter and cheese
in this country will probably fail to az
preciate the force Of this logic. The
closing Of foreign ports to their surplus
cheese and butter circumscribes their
market, breaks down prices and limits
their opportunities to trade. But the
same result follows the closing Of Amer
ican markets 10 the foreign fabrics.
except that tho American consumer is
made to suffer instead Of the producer
II in the course Of future commercial
relations between the new world aud
the old the expectation OF grain and
beef and other articles should decline
and finally stop the Judge Kelleys, the
Harry divers and the other monopo
lists and their agents would doubtless
20 into perfect paroxysm Of pleasure
over the advantages It afforded them ia
multiply their wealth at the expense ot
their fellow workers in the vineyard oi
industrious effort Patriot
