If attention were not called to the

a preacher comes under the inhibited

JUDGES clearly right, the reading of the
law being plain and unmistakable; but
it is also clear that Congress never in

one of those rich old buffers who buys
a. young wife, and we have q
good deal of sympathy for the pcot
young woman who so sadly mistakes
her own human nature as to imagine
that money will make an offensive
match tolerable. Like most ill-assorted
unions where age and youth are made

Rawson marriage turned out badly.
The wife was too gay for the old man,
and the husband was TOO strict and too
jealous to suit the young woman.

quarreling, and finally to separation,

getting some of the money for which
she had sacrificed herself to his lust
for so it was-he assaulted her character,
and put paid spies upon her track. He
even went back of their marriage, and
hired men and women to 60 into the
details of her previous life. One of the
contemplate tools employed by
Rawson to swear to her conduct
in Washington previous to her
marriage, is now being prosecuted
by the lady for perjury and defamation.

more despicable wretch is there than
