It matters little what the cause may
be, but certain it is that the moral
status Of the American people is not
being improved, because Of the ease
With which they can be relieved Of
their marital obligations, through the
aid Of divorce courts, no matter how
trivial the pretext. Therefore it is
gratifying to rlght-minded people,
when they hear Of certain class Of
divorce proceedings falling Of their OBJ
jet. The following is one Of that
kind. 1t also suggests very pertinently
the duty Of meddlesome parents.
Vice Chancellor Green, OF New Jersey,
fled an opinion in the case Of DR.. Charles
A. Olcott, who sought divorce from ms
wife. Fanny. He dismissed the DILL or
complaint and denied the divorce. The
case has attracted much attention.
Or. Olcott Is a practcing physician in
West Milford; the wife resides az Cald-
wei. Essex county. Mrs. OlcOtt left her
husbands home in July, 1890, with the be-
lief that her children, q boy OF four years
old. and q little girl under two, had been
taken away from her By her husbands
moliSer. with his cooperation and consent.

Tho French Bourgeosie.

The bourgeosie is that immense
body eff the French nation which repre-
sents Pepargne, or, in other words,
capitalized savings. The bourgeois
in the man who has made his money
cent by cent during the first three
quarters of his life, and who spends,
it in pretty much the same proportion
during the last remaining quarter. As
long as he works he is not bourgeois.
But as soon as be retires from business
and lives on his income, however
small 1t may be, he becomes
Monsieur Bourgeois. To reach this
goal has been his only ambition
through lifetime of want and labor,
and l fancy Heaven itself would Appear
an almost superhuous recOmpense to
those who have actually attained this
stage of human felicity. The bourgeois
thinks of nothing, aspires to nothing
bet to make money, not in q gay, OIL
hand, haphazard way, but ever cautious
ly, calculating over centime or silently
graSping at penny. And the bourgeois
in this case means the woman as well as
the man, the wife as we'll as the hus-
band. for both work on untiringly, at
tached by the same bonds TO the yoke
of labor. l remember once accompany
ing a friend to q confectioner's. She was
a wealthy American who spent money
lavishly. On this particular occasion
she paid an unusually large bill,
and while waiting for the change ate a
tempting "fondant." We were leaving
the shop when she suddenly remem-
bered it, and, turning to the saleswo-
man, with one of her beaming reception
smiles, said: 81 have eaten Que Of your
pretty bonbons; what do owe you p
Two cents" answered the woman un-
hesitatinglY. Had not those 10 confines
been discounted already by the proprie-
tor? No Frenchman throws away two
sous on q client unwittingly; no more
than a French client would think OF
eating two sous worth OF candy with
out paying for it. The bourgeois knows
too well what it costs to make two sous
in an old cauntry, and the rich man
knows exactly the amount Of pleasure
he is entitled to expect from the same
two sous.

HAwrRORNE ON LINCOLN.
A Bit of Description it Was Thought Best
TO Suppress.

A Bit of Description Is Was Thought Best
TO Suppress.
Nathaniel Hawthorne wrote for the
Atlcntic Monthly al article entitled
CHIEFLY on War Matters, which con-
tained the following description Sup
pressed by the EDITOR OF President
Lincoln:
ENTHUSIASTICALLY, Western man
though he be, and Kentuckian by birth,
President Lincoln is the essential rep
reSentatlve of all Yankees, and the YER
table specimen, physically, of what
the world seems determined TO
regard as our characteristic quail
ties. There is no describing his
lengthy aWkwardness, nor the unc0uth-
ness Of his movements, and yet il seemed
as il I had been In the habit of seeing
him daily, and had shaken hands with
him a thousand times in some village
street, so true was be to the aspect OF
the pattern American, though with a
certain extravaganza which, possibly, l
exaggerated still further by the delight
ed esgerness with which 1 took it in.
He was dressed In rusty black frock
coat and pGntaloOnS, unbrushed, and
worn so faithfully that the suit had
adapted itself to the curves and angu-
larities Of his figure and had grown to
be an outer skin of the man. The whole
physiognOmy is as coarse o one as You
would meet anywhere In the length and
breadth Of the State; but, withal,
it is redeemed, illuminated, soft
ened and frightened by a kindly though
serious look out OF his eyes and en- ex-
preston Of honely sagacity that seems
weighted with rich results OF village ex-
perience--a great deal Of native sense,
no boOkish cultivation, no refinement,
honesty at heart and thoroughly so,
and yet in some sort sly, at least en-
dowed with a sort of tact and wisdom
that are akin to craft, and would impel
him, think, TO take an antagonist in
flank rather than to make bull run at
him right in front. But, on the whole,
l liked the sallow, queer, sagaciOus WIS.,
age, with the homely human sympathies
that warmed it, and for my share In
the matter would as lief have Uncle
Abe as a ruler as any man whom it
would have been practicable to put in
his place"
