DOM OF SPEECH.
London, March 24-The anniversary dinner OF the
London General Pension Society was given tonight.
Among the guests was Thomas +. Bayard. Ameri-
can Amba ssador who responded to the toast ''Our
Kin Beyond the Seas" He remarked upon the
strong family likeness Of the kin beyond the seas
10 the people OF England. They were. he said. as
like as two peas. and they resemblei each other
in their patriotism and pluck. There was another
similarity between them. namely. helping tn poor
and weak. He inclined to believe that therein
lay the strength OF the Notwithstanding svetHr.
Mr. Bayard dwet upon the difference OF opinion
among his own cOuntrymen and upon the value OF
individual opinion. lie said tina; since ne came TO
England he had never found occasion TO change his
tone, and there was nothing he would say here
that he would not say at home. and vice versa.
almost say God forbid II. A man must not be cX-
pected to speak In tone that would suit every
body. He rejoiced that in the system OF govern
ment that origina ted here and that had been carried
beyond the Atlantic there was something that en-
abled man to speak according TO his own con
both countries. When the time when man
dare not speak the thoughts swelling within him
for the public good. God help the country. He
quoted Tennyson vocing this sentiment. and said
he believed the poets words echoed as strongly IN
the country where he himself was born ana where
his best hopes lay as they did in Great Britain.
In conclusion Mr. Bayara said: Herein lies that
which shall keep both countries moving onward ana
upward in the Of civilization. and we will
never suppress the truth for fear OF evil conie-
quences We will tell II whether we live or whether
we have to die"

JERSEY MARRIAGES.
Evils Of a System in Which
No License Is Re-
CURED.

Attempts have been made at sessions Of
the New Jersey Legislature for years to
secure a reform in the marriage laws of
the State SO as TO have a better regula-
ton of marriages, but they have uniform.
ly failed, says the State Gazette" At the
last legislative session a bill got through
the Assembly for a marriage license law,
but 1t failed in the Senate. AT zach ses-
sion that legislation was attempted, a
lobby composed of Camden clergymen
and civil justices appeared and worked
unblushingly against reform, and the
same men attempted to commit a conven-
ton Of a large religious body in South
Jersey against it.
The evils Of the New Jersey marriage
law were aggravated by the enactment
in Pennsylvania of a marriage license
law. Soon after that law went into opera
ton Camden became a "Gretna Green
for runaway Pennsylvania couples. Jus
tees Of the Peace, ~clergymen and the To-
cal hackmen saw profit in the business
of marrying couples, and it became a reg
ular and discreditable system of mar
rage mills" in which some ministers of
the Gospel have earned dubious celebrity.
To get an Idea OF the number of non-resi-
dent marriages in Camden, reference can
be had to the vital statistics of 1886. A
comparison of principal cities will show
what proportion of marriages in Camden
is resident and what proportion is nom
resilient
