THE BOTANIC GARDEN SITE.

The selection Of site in Bronx Park for the
Botanic Garden marks another advance toward
the realization Of that admirable project Since
the undertaking was first brought prominently
to public notice It has been expected that Bronx
Park would be chosen for the purpose under the
conditions Of the statute governing the applica-
ton Of public land and money thereto, and we
see no reason to doubt that the projectors have
been well advised as to this all-important matter
The site selected has peculiar advantages Of loca-
ton and environment and, so far as we know,
Is not considered unfit for the purpose by any
body whose opinion Is valuable. We observe.
however that our esteemed contemporary "The
New-York Sum-" whose intelligent and vigilant

WIFE BEATERS no THE BAR.

A drunken rufiian was brought before one Of
the municipal courts on Tuesday, charged with
making a murdcrOus assault upon his wife.
There was no question Of his guilt. lie himself
admitted 1t. But his wife positively refused TO
make formal complaint against him, and so he
was discharged. AT about the SAME hour another
fellow Of the same type was brought before an
other court on IA similar charge. lie had been
arrested while in the az. Of trying TO beat out
his wife's brains with stone beer mug. His
wife said it was the fourth time he had been
arrested for such an offence and the thirty sixth
time he had thus assaulted her. She did make
complaint against him, and he was held TO an
swcr for his crime.
There are few more shocking cases than such
as these, and few more difficult to deal with ade-
quately. They are by no means uncommon.
They come before our courts daily. In many
Of them the result Is as II was in the first one
we have described. The wife refuses TO make
complaint, and the unspeakable scoundre is dis
charged Why does she refuse? In some cases
because OF fear The husband tells her that II
she has him locked up he will beat her worse
than ever, or perhaps kill her, rs he gets
out. She has only too good reason to fear he
will keep his word and so let's him go free. In
other cases wife and children are dependent
upon the husband for support. To lock him up
for a month or more will mean destitution for
them. So no complaint Is made against him. In
