An English exchange makes the fol-
lowing statement with reference to the
working of the married wOmen's property
act, recently passed by Parliament:
''CuriOus relationships occasionally
arise under the new married wOmen's
property act. The other day a lady we'll
known in society bought the freehold of a
house for which her husband held a lease
for ninety-nine years. She thereby
became her husbands landlord and
he her tenant, bound to carry out
all the covenants Of the lease as
TO repairs, etc. In the event of his fail
ing To- carry out the covenants in any
form. she can sue him in a court Of law.
and, should certain circumstances arise.
eject HIM from the house altogether. The
situation might become more complicated
if the couple lived in house under the
double relationship of husband and wife,
tenant and landlord, for should the eject
ment be put into force. the husband would
have to sue for a restitution of cOnjugal
rights before he could return TO his home.
This is the power which the law actually
gives to married women under such cir
cumstances."

The above are the figures of the popula-

perfectly safe estimate that both population
and valuation have increased 20 per cent.
since that time, which would make the pop
ulation of all these towns to-day 1880 and
their valuation S1,631, 404 This added to
the population and valuation of the towns
on the lower end of the route before named,
make population of 14,606 people aud a
valuation of 50, 172, 495, all Of whom and

Democracy and Finance.

The two most serious mistakes which
Speaker Carlisle committed in making up
the House committees were the appoint
ments of Buckner and Bland to the head of
the banking and coinage committees. There
are no committees in the House which if
disposed to do so, can work more mischief
to the business interest of the country than
these two. One has in its hands the paper
currency of the country and the other the
metallic currency. Obviously therefore the
only considerations which should govern in
the selection of their heads should be such
as relate to the business interests of the
community. The very worst disposition
which can be made of financial crank is to
place him at the head Of one of these COM
mittees But Speaker Carlisle seems to
have ignored all the Considerations which
should have governed his conduct in refer
ence to these committees and to have based
his action entirely on bad precedent. He
tells us in an explanation which he has felt
compelled to make since the committees
were announced, that he was aware that
both Mr.. Buckner and Mr.. Bland were f.
nancial lunatics. Yet he felt compelled to
appoint them to the head of these two com.
mittees because they had held those posi-
tions before and it would be violating pre-
cedent to remove them. Therefore he con-
cluded to appoint them, after exporting from
The Portland daily press., 1883-12-29

them promise that they would try and be
sane and would not indulge their vagaries
on the subject of finance.
Had the lunacy of Mr.. Buckner and Mr..
Bland Oh the subject of finance been of re-
cent origin the Speaker would have had
some excuse for looking upon it as of cur
able kind and some ground for hoping that
their promises might hold them in check
But the financial lunacy of both these gem
tieinen Is chronic. Buekner is just as vio-
lent hater Of the national bank system aud
just as firm believer in the superiority Of
the irredeemable greenback as he was when
the greenback craze was as its height, and
Bland is just as loyal to his affection for the
dollar which bears his name as he was when
he framed the bill that gave it birth. The
great majority OF the men who shared in
their decisions years ago have recovered,
but the intellects of Buckner and Bland still
dwell in financial darkness.
The selection of these two men for these
two committees in spite of Speaker Carlisle's
explanation, will be, and ought TO be, accept
ca py Inc country as indicating that the
Democratic party is incapable of dealing In
telijgently with the finances of the country
and that it is still imbued to great degree
with those heresies on this subject which
it sought to incorporate in the financial
system of the land. The fact that there are
Democrats who are sound on this subject
does not initiate against this view so long
as they are not powerful enough in number
or influence, to prevent the selection Of snch
men as Messrs. Buckner and Bland as
representative fnanciers. Neither does
it avail anything to attempt to defend
these selections on the ground of precedent.
On>the contrary it makes matters worse. If
the Democratic party is always going to be
governed by its presidents almost all its acts
will inevitably be bad for all The precedents
which it has made in the last quarter of
century have been Of this description.

The Children's Christmas Club NAV now

at each recurring Christmas we may expect
to witness anew the pleasant spectacle which
was presented in City Hall on Thursday

Ella S. Sargent conceived a year ago, and
which she and her associates have twice ex-
ecuted in SO happy manner, has already been
the means of bringing delight to hundreds
of children whose life bad been devoid of

more than this the time and labor and mon
ey which have been spent in its execution
would have been repaid with liberal inter
est But this is only small part, and not
the noblest part, of what it has achieved. It
has revealed 10 the minds of children who
had known only the delights of receiving
that there are still greater delights in giving,
and has sown in good ground the seeds of
beneyolence and kindly sympathy. 1t would
be hard to say who derived the most pleas
ure from the festival, those who served or
those who sat at meat, both were SO full of
delight. By all means let these Christmas
festivals be continued. They bring sunshine
and happiness where otherwise all would be
darkness and gloom. They develop virtues
which otherwise might be stifed and de-

The Columbus convention of Colored
men addressed a letter to the Hon. S. S.
Cox calling his attention to the s.unwar-
ranted and cowardly shooting down in cold
blood Of American citizens in the State of
Virginia in November last" and beseech-
ing him as prominent Congressman and
humanitarian" to give the same attention
to murder of American citizens at home
which he has given to what the Irish
Americans have represented as murder of
American citizens abroad. 1t is hardly
necessary to say that Mr.. Cox will not heed
this appeal. Mr.. Cox is humanitarian for
votes only. And there are no votes for him
in championing the cause of Colored men.
