THE DAILY -EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, THURSDAY, JULY 9, 18G8 4 Frequent DiToroc In New England. JVorn the American Quarterly CAurct Review for July. jJo thoughtful man can behold, without solicitude, the low grade of doineatio morals which Beem to prevail to a large extent in oar New England families. The general deoar of pnblle sentiment in respect to family religion, the practical neglect of the Holj Scriptures, the infrequency of family prayer, the reluc tance of parents to make their children obey, the transfer of respoasibility for the manners and morals of children from parents to publio chool teachers, the common rudeness anl arrogance of boys and girls, the great preva lence of uutrutU amongst the young, the li cense and familiarity of intercourse which is allowed between the youth of different sexes, the murder of living but unborn children, the number of illegitimate births all these are Buflioient to fill one with consternation and dismay. To all these signs of demoralization there is to be added one, which is closely con nected with them, which fosters them, and is fostered by them in turn. We refer to the Tery great and alarmiDg frequency of divorce. This has grown to be a portentous evil. It is certaioly one of the moat siguilicant signs of the real condition of our douwBtio life. It is communicating a sad coloring to the whole luner life of the people. It is working its way from the lower strata of society upwards, and exerting a decided influence in the control of public opinion. Its progress is increasing, and at the present rate, a time eetms to be rapidly approaching when the publio sentiment on this point shall be almost wholly debauched. Lst we thould seem to be only an alarmist iu this matter, we will state some fact! wuioh will fairly illustrate the progress of this social vice amongst us during the last five year3. Nat to be too tedious, we select our principal facts from the statistics of the State of Vermont, as furnished by its indefatigable Secretary. We elect Vermont as being by geographical posi tion the most secluded of the New liagland States, the least affected by foreign immigra tion, and by marriages of mixed nationalities, and probably, with New Hampshire, the most tenacious in maintaining the traditions and Bocial morals of the early settlers. Vermont is divided into fourteen counties, and for the last five years the population has not mate rially changed. We find, therefore, that for the last live years the divorces are as nearly as possible distributed as follows amongst the counties: In Addison county to every 1000 persons the number of divorces is 1-1, and in Essex couaty, -S. To the great honor, or rather less shame, of these counties, this is the smallest proportion to be ound in any portion of the State. In five counties, Chittenden, Franklin, Windham, Orarjge, and Caledonia, the divorces vary in number from 15 to 1-7 to each 1000 people. In Orle-aus and Rutland counties, they are 2 to each 1000 people. In Bennington, Lamoille, Grand Isle, Washington, and Windsor coun ties, they number from 2 3 to 2-4 to each 1000. For the year 1802 there were granted 91 di vorces; for lb0:i, 105; for 11-04, 101; for 1SU5, 141; for 180'(i, 155; a sufficiently rapid increase one would think, to alarm the most phlegma tic mind; a steady increase from 1)1, iu 1802, to 355, in 18GG; the fifth year alone showing an increase of 70 per cent. be yond the first year. From another point of view, however, it comes still more closely home. Observe that these divorces have been increasing, while the popu lation of the State lia-t remained stationary. The whole number of libels granted in the lat five years amounts to 51)3. We have then 593 divorces to 315,098 people, or one divorce to every 532 persons, llere, again, if we deduct CO per cent, for the children and youth under eighteen, we have one divorce to every 200 marriageable persons. And as there are two parties to every divorce, there are two out of every 200 marriageable persons, or one man in every 133 men, and one woman in every 133 women, personally concerned in this witter, liut perhaps a more startling view is derived from a comparison between the last five years of divorces, and the last five years of mar riages. There have been, as we have said, in five years 593 divorces. There is also an ag gregate of 11,325 marriages reported during the same time, which, however, it would be fair to Btate at 11,400, so as to cover the number of marriages not reported through ac cident or carelessness. Compare then 593 divorces with 11,400 marriages, and we have this result of 1 divorce to every 19 marriages. Or, in other words, to every 3S persons mar rird during the last five years, two are con cerned in a divorce. We might add, that at this rate there is a certain degree of proba bility th&t during the next five years, two at least, out of every 38 persons entering into the married estate, will be divorced. If the annual increase of divorces goes on unchecked, the proportion will be still larger. Finally, the prospect is very dark Irom another point of view. The last recorded year of marriages gives us the number of 2983 (call it 3000, to compensate for possible errors). This is the highest number of marriages in this State in any one year. Now compare this with the number of divorces, 155, for the same year. It will be found that whereas, five years ince there was less than 1 divorce to every 22 marriages, the latest yearly record assures ns ot 1 divorce to every 19 marriages. It affords but sorry comfort to reflect that Ver mont is not alone in the melancholy retrograde march of domestic morals in New Englaud. In the State of Massachusetts, things are not quite so bad, but bad enough, there being duriog the last five years 1 divorce to 41 mar riages, and during the last recorded year 1 to 27 marriages. The State of Connecticut shows a record worse than Vermont. There, the aggregate of five years of divorces to five years of marriages is as 1 to 1 1, and during the last year as 1 to 10. Neither the States of M aine, Rhode Island, or New Hampshire have collected full statistics. From the ob servations we have made, however, and from the information we have received, we have no reason to Buppose that either Ftate can give at the best, bo good a record as Massachusetts. The estimated number of divorces in the State of Maine for the last five years is 950, which, in proportion to the popu lation, gives one divorce to every 330 meu aud Woin-n above eighteen years of Bge, placing Maine upon a very little better standing than Vermont. So far then as numt ers and calcu lations can approximate to the exact truth, the propped is dismal. We well remember the astonishment and dismay expressed by two persons who had been obliged to leave the noithern part of Virgiuia at the close of the war. When they learned the custom amongst us in regard to divorces, they both del laitd, lhat, In all their experience in that part of Virginia where they lived together for many years, and where one was born, they heaid of but thrte instances of divorce, and then it was invariably at the cost of the reputation of the offending party and here (said they) it seems to be' con sidered only a trifle, and to be almost as freely tontemplaUd and resorted to as mar riage. Now what is the law and the practice in New Kogland f Here again we take for illustration the law of the State of Vermont, which is almost identical with that of the other five States, unless it be Massachusetts. After Mating that on account of consanguinity, or insn flitient age, or the idioay or lunacy of f ne pf the j arties, Pf force oj jj-aui to obtain consent, or of Impotency, marriages in certain cases may be declared void from the beginning; the law goes on to mention these other causes for which the Supreme Court of the eonnty in which one or both of the partiea reside, may grant a divorce, namely: 1. Adultery in either party. 2. The sentence of either party to confinement in the Btate l'risou for three years or longer. 3. Intolerable severity by either of the parties. 4. Wilful desertion for three consecutive years. 5. Seven years' unexplained and Biient absence. 6. Neglect of the husband to support his wife, be having sufficient pecuniary ability. All libels based upon either of these con ditions, and proved, must be grauted by the Court. And finally, section forty-two thns declares: "Whenever a marriage shall be dissolved, pursuant to the provisions of this chapter, the parties shall be deemed single and may lawfully marry again." Here, then, the law ignores all distinction between separa tion a men st i for the protection of suffering sub jects of the State, on the one hand, aud di vorce a vinculo, on the other hand. The latter is the only mode of separation recognized in these statutes as lawful; and in this Slate, and all the New England States excepting Massa chusetts, it is employed in all caaes without distinction. Thus, while 184 bills of divorce have been granted in Vermont for the last five years for the cause of adultery, 409 bills, givirjg exactly the same freedom as to mar riage, have been grauted for various other causes: as for wilful desertion 238, intolerable peverity (exercised in some cases by the wife) 117, refusal to support 11, and for causes not mentioned 43. The law of Vermont allows the parties to al these 409 bills, which are granted for some other cauee than adultery, to marry again, as if there were no existing divinely-appointed relations between them. This estate of marriage is treated by the laws of Vermont aud other New England States as if it were never in anywise under the control of Christ's law; as if its sanctity were a myth; as if it were the sole creation aud ordinauce of the State, and to be dealt with and rent asunder as a simple affair of proletarian cou veniance aud policy; as if its solemn contract was hardly bo coercive as that which one might make with his wood-sawyer; as if all its vows, spoken and implied, were binding only bo long as the caprice and humor of the parties agreed, and then, to be put away with a slight formality, and a new contract with another entered into, as one would cast off old garments, present them to a needy friend, and reclothe himself in new apparel. Upon this ground, therefore, we declare the law prevailing in New England as to divorces, and the practice under the law, to be treacherous to lamily union, contrary to Christian morals, a Bnare to the thoughtless and ignorant, an op portunity to the depraved, an offense and sin against the Divine law, and, in short, a method of legalized polygamy. We cannot attempt to dwell upon all the painful thoughts to which this view of the subject gives rise. The immorality threatens a beautiful and favored portion of our common couutry with a cloud of moral evil, scandal, domestic strife, and debauchery. Families become unsettled. The relation of husband and wife assumes the form ot a bare partnership in business. Chil dren lose their just inheritance of baptism, of borne ties, of family name, and family honor. The registration reports may record that the number of illegitimate children in this State average less than in England, but their num bers would be fearfully increased should we apply the eame laws here as there iu respect to matrimony and divor e. Legalized divorce is not known in Kogland as it is here. There is but one cause acknowledged there which can dissolve the marriage tie. Our phi lanthropistsand our demagogues may in veigh against Mormonirin, or they may hold up to execration that repulsive feature of the old Southern slavery which held as nothing the matrimonial bonds be tween the slaves; but here, in this free State, the very same thing is done by freemen, and is legalized by the law of the State, and we Buppose there are men to be found who glory in it, and view it as a sign of progress. Oue of our clergy, who was for several years chap lain to a haw England State Prison, came to suspect that men might easily be victims of a conspiracy to thrust them into the State I'ri Bon lor three years or more, that their wives might marry a preferred suitor. The dissolv ing of home ties amongst the people is some times most bewildering. We lately heard of an instance of divorce, in which one of two daughters, after the father aud mother sepa rated, went to live with her mother's mother. There she took her grandmother's surname. Her mother afterwards married, and this daughter then went to live with her, and took the name of her mother's second husband, by which name she now desires to be known, but of course she is known by all the three name3. In the meantime her sister went to live with her father, who also married again, and she is known by ber father's name. How can chil dren under such circumstances retain any re verence for home or domestic ties, or learn to value them except upon merely mercenary grounds ? The fact is, that although publio sentiment revolts at the simultaneous poly gamy of the Mormons, yet, in New Eoglaud the course of things appears to be tend ing towards that which moralists and jurists call successive polygamy. Can we re gard such things with patience? Ought they to be allowed to poison our domestic aud social life ? Is not the law and practice under it viewed by the light of the Christian law, im moral and corrupt f We pas to the third point, the causes of this extraordinary fre quency of divorce. These are not difficult to describe. First, and before all, the cause and provocation to many divorces is the very facility with which they are obtained. It is bo easy on account of weariness, incompati bility of temper, longings for forbidden plea sures, unsatisfied vanity, covetonsness, ca pricious likes and dislikes, to obtain a legal divorce, that it is obtained. That license which would hardly be thought of, if abso lutely prohibited, is readily seized, when it is thrust into the hand, pressed upon the mind, proclaimed to the ear, and assured to possession by compliance only with a slight formality. Human nature cannot resist this temptation. The facility with which divorces are granted, and the so called freedom which it oilers to marry again, present a most attractive bait to young, thoughtless, shallow, vain, or desiguing per sons. There is really nothing to hinder a fre quent change of husbands or wives, as the case may be. Those who enter into the mar ried estate are always conscious that they need not bear the yoke longer thau they wish to. It can be thrown off by a slight artilice, either by mutual agreement, or at the will of one of them. Each divorce bows the seeds for others. It is the town talk. The newspapers give the often disgusting particulars, with an unholy relibh. The men give the details of it in the tavern, over the counter, and at the noonday rest. The women gossip over it, month after month, at their calls, tea-drinkings, or sociables. The chil dren Lear it discussed freely by their elders at the daily meals, with comments and details often that they should not hear. They all, men, women, and children, Bee that it is a legal act, frequently occurring, recognized by the Statute Law, and accepted by the people. They see the actors in it, and their children, living in the same reputation as heretofore, and they hear them extenuating and justifying their course. Thty t ee the Supreme Court of the county, which they have been trained to regard as the very impersonation of jtntice and dignity, sanctioning the dissolution of the marriage tie. They see Justices of the I'eaoe, perhaps, sometimes, Ministers of the Gospel, uniting these divorced persons again with others in holy matrimony. And what is the result f What can it be, other thau the general corruption of the publio conscience, and con temptuous disregard for the appeals of the few remaining fastidious, reverent, and religious citizens. One part of the remedy must be for the clergy and laity both to educate the publio mind and conscience as t the Bolemuity, religiousness aud indissolubility of marriage, and to endeavor to reform it. Another reme dial means, wbich we may hope is generally practised by our clergy, must be to ascertain the facts when parties apply for marriage, aud to decline to join in holy matrimony either of two divorced parties, both being alive, except it be the innocent party to a divorce, grauted only upon the ground of adultery. Again, the statute law of every State should, so far as practicable, solemnize and dignify the estate ol marriage, by preventing all hasty, secret, illegal, and irresponsible marriages. In the State of Vermont, as the law now stands, since abolishing the publication of the bans, it regulates only the age and degree of relation ship of the parties, it forbids polygamy, it names the authorized miuisteis aud pro vides a form of certificate of marriage when consummated. Besides this, there is absolutely no law in Vermont on the FtiVject. Men ' and women, known and unknown, publicly and privately, at any hour of the day or, night, without signature, without witnesses, without identification, clandestinely or otherwise, upon the bare im pulse of the moment, or by deliberate plot ting, are allowed to follow out any device or desire which their own prudence, passion, folly, or cunning may dictate. The law gives no attention or respect to the subject which tends to dignify and vindioate the true honor or marriage. It affords the officiating minister no protection against deceit or fraud. It does nothing to identify the parties for the sake of peace and good order of the community. It gives the friends of the innocent and uusus pectirg no opportunity to detect and expose profligate designs. Is does nothing to secure the family circle from possible invasion. It simply ignores, as far as possible, the whole subject. In these sentiments, we doubt not, our readers most heartily concur. Should not then the ttatute law of every State es tablish "precautions aud protective for malities" by which the parties to a marriage shall be distinctly identified as citizens iu their respective communities; by which their intention of marriage shall be duly signed in the presence of competent residents, and regis tered by the proper officer; by which a definite interval of time may be allowed after the re gistration, witnesses required to be present at the marriage, aud a certificate or license fur nished for the assurance of the officiating Minister of Justice, perhaps to be counter signed by him, aud returned to the office of the Town Clerk I 'these simple requirements will procure creator respect for the union thus solemnized. They will put no bar to the mar riage of any honest citizen, whatever be his rank or station; they will protect the com munity to some extent against the misfortune of ill judged, hasty, clandestine, and perhaps criminal unions; and by thus elevating the views ot the people as to mar riage, they will contribute, it is hoped and believed, to lessen the number of divorces. And finally, efforts shall be made, all good men united, and the publio sentiment aroused where practicable, to procure such change in the law as shall prohibit the dissolution of the marriage bond except only in case of the adul tery of one of the parties; increasing also, if need be, the pains and penalties incurred by adultery; and in special cases of hardship au thorizing separation, if necessary be, a mensa et tltoro; leaving the way open to tuture recon ciliation of the parties, but absolutely re fusing permiscion to marry again while both the parties live, and treating all such marriages as criminal. One Year of the Kcw Dominion. FVomj the Montreal H'ltnt us, July 3 J Our Dominion is now a year old. How does it work i. Iu Cauada we have appointed for it a day of rejoicing, liut has our rejoicing been the bounding pulse of national life, or simply the comtort ot being olt work on a hot day f Every one can now judge for himself whether the feelings drawn forth by such an occasion are closely akin or not to those manifested by our neighbors on the 4th of this month, or by ourselves on the Queen's birthday. Young Canada, at least, should feel this consciousness of national life, if there were anything to draw it forth; but, wanting thin, the sentiment seems to be but shallow. Most people seem to look upon it as a matter chiefly interesting to the political schemers with whom it origi nated. Very different is the state of affairs in Nova Scotia. There tbey grind their teeth in voluntarily whenever the word confederation is mentioned. The state of feeling is described by well-informed people there as being too deep for utterance; and, as it takes the form of a wide-spread and deep-seated movement toward annexation, it is not to be wondered that public expressions should be much more guarded than private ones. That a stoiiu is brewing there seems very likely to be an established fact before next Dominion Day. The desire of Great liritain to preserve the loyalty of her colonial subjects, aud the integrity of her empire, whatever it may amount to, appears to have been of late smothered among what were to Englishmen weightier matters, and theadvo cate for a betrayed l'rovince could be feund but in Mr. liright, an acknowledged revolu tionist, who, it is possible, would object very little to the annexation of all the Provinces to the United States. It is to be hoped that wis dom, if not justice, will prevail among our own legislators, and that, instead of denying the most patent facts, they will set themselves to conciliate by liberal measures the affections of their lellow-oitizens so grievously outraged, and save their pet scheme, and us as a people, from irretrievable ruin. The lobster factory at Englishman's River, Maine, is putting up about 3000 lobsters a day. It has taken in over 90,000 already. About three tons of the refuse are thrown out from the factory each day, which the farmers are using to enrich their laims. LEGAL NOTICES. IN THE DISTRICT COURT 0?
