TIIE DAILY EVENING TELEGtlAlI-PItlLADELPIIIA, MONDAY, AUGUST 17, 176 ENGLAND. Vh F-XtleS tad U-e.rtal-tlsl of Her Harris lws. The London Vai'y Hews has tbe following: "A case oa the iutrrpretatlon of tbe English law of marrlaen, which hat Jost been decided by Sir James wildfi, throws a curious light on ome of the difficulties of the subject. A jountt lady of the name of Worniald, aied sixteen, sloped with btr father's footman, a certatu Thompson Ncale, aged eighteen. Ibis joudk man bad made every necessary preparation for tbe event, with one little exception. In bis native parish ia Lincolnshire he had caused the banns to be put up, he had fixed the day and hour, and engaged the clergyman to attend. To the legality of bis proceeding thete was only one objection he bad given his intended wife's name m Morumild instead of Wormald. When the cler gyman, who happened to come from a neighbor ing parish to oblige the incumbent of Nettle's parish, met the parties at the altar he asked It tbeir names wc-ro thorn- stated in the notice of banns, and the girl replied that her name was Wormald. Then he performed the ceremony In that nam'1, and the reglnter was duly tilled up accordingly. Next day tbe bride repented of her choice, and returned to her lather's house. That gentleman at once took steps to havo the marriage declared irreeular; and in this he lias succeeded. Every one will rejoice that a Billy girl escapes even at such tost a pro bable life of misery; but the means by which her rescue was effected illustrates somo of tho pazJfs attaching to our marriage symcm. As the law now standi, a marriage under lalte names Is bad only if both parties are cognizant of the error. Had, therefore, the clergyman proceeded with the ceremony on the aasuiup'.ios that the names In the banns were eorree', there would have been noevldeuce lhatMUs Worm ild knew that her name hait been given incorrectly, and, as a consequence, the marriage must have been pronouueed valid. Now a clergyman Is not bound to make auy such previous inquiry, and thus it was the mere accident of his putting the question, and tbe bride being sufficiently collected to distinguish btwecn the sound of Wormald and Morumild, that enabled her atier wards to escape from th consequences ot her foolish act. "it car.uot be said that this is a very satisfac lory state of the law. The provisions of our marrlago system have indeed in this case broken down on teveral of their mo-.t important points. They seek to prevent clandestine juvenile mar riages; yet here is a ca-e in which, but for a tneie accident, a good marriage would have been effected between a footman and his mas ter's daughter, aged sixteen, without tbe slight est warning to her parents. They seek to give certainty to the marriage relation; yet here Is an entirely new quvstion raised, which the judge cannot decide without taking some days to comider it. Moreover, we may easily see how a very slight change of circumstauces might have made the result entirely different. Had Neale given the young lady's name as Worumlld (which, in lact, it is far from im probable he may have meant to do, as the parish clerk showed him three different ways of spoiling the name which he understood whs intended, and a groom might perhaps easily mistake an 'N' for a W) the difference In souud would not have struck the girl'd ear, she would then have remained Ignorant of the error, and consequently her marriage would have bten good. Nay, it she had even inquired about the spelling, and discovered the inaccuracy in that respect, there would have still beou a question whether the two names were not substantially the same, or at least too little different to vitiate a marriage. Aud jet if in any of these particulars we try whether we could obviate the difficulty by altering the terms of the law, we shall only tlnd ourselves involved In worse mischiefs. If we were to declare that here, as in France, no marriage of a minor should be eood without consent of parents, we should merely give to villains au opportunity of iepudiatiug at pleasuie tbe wedlock into which tbey had lured their young and unthink ing victims. It we were to enact that auy error in the banns, whether known to ono of the parties or not, should vitiate the transac tion, we should provide every one with the most convenient means of secretly rendering a marriage bad, thouph to all outward appear ances it was good. In fact, wo may dismiss any such nxpedients from cur mind as Imprac ticable, for they were both resorted to in Lord Ilardmicke's Marriage Act of 1754, and we found ourselves in 1821 obliged to repeal them. "From the colonics, however, there comes to us a suggestion ot a different character. Sooth Australia has laely passed an act to consolidate nd amend its Marriage laws, which awaits the anclion of the Secretary of btate. In this measure the geceial rules are, that any regis tered clergyman, or any district registrar ot births, etc., may celebrate a marriage, tae essential part of the ceremony being only a declaration before two wituesses that the par ties take each other for man and wile. In the case of minors a written consent by parents must be produced. In all cases, fourteen days' notice of tne names of the parties most b9 given to tbe registrar in each district. After the mar riage Hikes plt.ee the fact is duly entered in a book. All these requirements are enforced by heavy penalties. Bat while thus far South Australia follows English law in a general way, here comes tbe essential difereoce. Supposing any of these requirements are neglected, the penalties of fine or imprisonment are tnllicted, but tbe maritnge is not declared bad. It Is. in deed, specidcaliy euacted tut 'no marriage, in fact, shall be avoided by reason only of auy de tect or error in the declaration made respecting the same where tbe Identity of the parties is not in question:' and it is further declared Uat no en or in stating that consent had been given, or in the residence of the parties, or in the for mality of the license or certificate of notice, shall be admitted to be proved, but that the register shall be conclusive evidence of all mar riages entered therein, and upon no ground or firetence shall be impeached. Now, here, at east, we have sometbinii approachiu? to cer tainty. Questions may, indeed, arise about the register volume itself, and, of course, any plea ot lorgery must still be tried in attempting to prove or impeach identity. Bat at last we have the great lact that, given au entry in tne proper register, and given that the identity ot the par ties is made out, no falsehoods or blundering about names, or notices, or witnesses, or consent of parents, or character of clergymen, or conse cration of buildings, can in any way impeich the fact of a mairlage being had between the partie who at the time were represented by the registered names." gk.teliaaat Her Majesty's Opera. One of the best contributions to the last num ber of London Society is that entitled "Sketches at ber Majesty's Opera." We give oue pasoage; "Who is that? Why that is Mr. Mapleson, the director of her Majesty's Opera; one of the most indefatigable ot tbe caterers for the public, to whom distance is nothing, and space between Liverpool and Lyons on Bond street and Berlin to be swept over iu the soriit gof a hand at cards. This gentleman abounds in vigor, resource, and readiness, and praet'cal talant. He has done bo many things that are difficult, that I really do not know which to enumerate first. "That surely, is Titiens. "It is she. The queen-of song, beyond all comBarieon. Only remember the characters she sustains, and you will become aware of her varied powers. 'Semlrimlde,' 'Medea,' Norma,' among thesevere heroiuesof tragedy; thi 'Countess' It JVozze di Figaro, aud 'Mrs. Ford' in Faetqff, attests her versatility.

For her bounty, in cue shape or another is free as air. And the TrfififiMtnnul work w hich she sets through is enormous: as tbe advertisements in the public papers in the season assure u."

"Who 1st Abl I thought so, now she turns this way. 8urely that is the delicious Trebelli Ilettinl. She who could sing the heart out of a stone image.

"But surely that Is the fascinating Christine Nilsson, who first turned the heads of Paris, winning golden gifts from the Emperor of the French and then Hashing gifts from the Empress of the French I mean jewels; and, wheu she came to London, stole Into tbe Kngllsh bean, lor the Euglitih people listen to her wonderfully beautiful singing with charmed attention. Christine Ni1-poii Is a very choice specimen ol womankind.

Why, what can, could, or would you do against such sirens as are here collected? Let them begin to sin, and you are chained. Notes are changed even into pold every night at tho opera. 'Music hath charms' indeed. Do you not thiuk that Ulysses, that sage closer ot his ears, who had recourse to cotton-wool at the most difficult point ot his parage through the sirem, and batdened his h?art and steeled his front against the allurements of the sinking sisterhood do you not think that even tbe Grecian hero would have been unaole to resist if he had been asi-ailed by Titipns, Nilsson, and Kellogg three wonderful women with tiieir voices? Men most be amused, look you. Men must be entertaineJ, ou see. And if Mozart, Weber, Cherubini, Flotow, Verdi, Donizetti, Auber, and Bellini cannot delight and instruct, I do not know who can or will. What are prudence, and valor, and pride, and self-resistance against the seductions of the opera? 'All the world's an operatic stase. and all the men and women merely players and singers.' Tbe best resolutions sometimes avail not against anything, and lenst of all, occasion ally, uguiust the attractions of the opera." PRUSSIA. Iler Army aad How It Is Had Up, A writer in tbe Cornhul Magazine says: To make an obnoxious institution pop il ir It requires nothing but to make the people be lieve it un institution of their own creation. Tbis stratagem has wonderlully succeeded in I'russin. Nine Prussians out of ten glory in the army, but the tenth hates it with a fierce hatred. The governing principle in tbe Prussian army Is subordma'ioa iu its most exhausting form, entire abandonment of tree will iu every re ppect. A most rigoious military code of laws enforces obedience in all cases. The commis sioned officers form a military aristocracy, whoso influence ou the poiuical and social affairs of tho coui.try cannot be overrated. Tne connecting link between commissioned officers and men is lormed by the non-conmissioned officers, whose position in the army is extiemely important. Ayouug man who enters the army as a profession has his career marked out lor the remainder of his life, as nearly all govern ment appointments, not requiring special or superior traiuine, are at the dispo.-al of soldiers who have served a number ot years, or who by some special cause, havo obtained a claim on the government. Policemen, railway guards, custoui-bouse officers, tipstaff's, bailiff's and the countless multitude of tbe lower officials are chosen from among the non com missioned oflicers, whilst corresponding offices of a higher position are reserved to commis sioned officers. It is thus Government collects a host of depeudeuts around it whose inrluouco on elections is otten decisive. Tbe progeny of the military aristocracy furnishes part of tue material tor vacant commissions, whilst the re mainder are filled up by appointments from amongst the volunteers ol all classes, who are well educated and possessed of some means. Very different elements are thus brought iu contact with each other in the variou regiments, but the esurd de corps and routine of service seon assimilate them, and they all end in be coming tbe willing instruments of Government. A great many 'officers are educated in the cadet houses, of which there are several in the provinces, and one in Berlin, where the young men receive their final training. Of thes insti tutions I will but fay that the education they give is utterly useless for anv other profession than tbe military. Tbe greater number of officers is appointed Irom among the volun teers (avan'otieurs), who enter tbe army as privates, having to find a guaranty ibr a mode rate monthly allowance that varies in tbe differ ent regiments and branches of the service. The majority ot the private soldiers belong to the agricultural classes, who lu Prus sia, as elsewhere, form the least intelligent por tion oi I tie people, ana taite very nine, it any, interest in political matters. Henco they form an admirable material lor the army of an abso lute Govtrnment. Tbe young soldiers, when thoroughly drilled, are, as a rule, well treated. and full of youthful enthusiasm; rejoicing in the lioerty ironi nam manual worK, possessing ample opportunities to indulge in tho cheap and novel pleasures of a garrison town, the recruits soon like lueir new lite. Officered by men who form a favored and exclusive caste in the com munity, 1 believe that nine-tenths of tbe array would blindly obey tbe most despotic orders, and the Government knows well that it can place reliance on the army. Any one looking at the Prussian army esti mates, and observing the proportion of that part ol tbe public expenditure to the general revenue, will see at a glance now teartui a burden the army must be to the nation. All other public inteiests are made subservient to the military, aud, in consequence, tbe salaries of public offi cials are absurdly low in Prussia. An officer corresponding in rank to an Euglish county court judge receives a salary with which any ordinary merchant's clerk in London would be diosatistied. POST OFFICE ROBBERY. HcoTrjr of Boads Stolea 1m November The Washington Express of Saturday last says:- borne time in last November 136.150 or United States Seven-thirty bonds were 6ent Irom New port, Rhode Island, to New York, for safe keep ing, by mail. They never arrived at their desti nation, ana auuougn tne I'obt uiuco uepi.rt ment here was uotltied of tbe fact, aud every effort to discover tho thief made, no clue to the robbery was obtalued, and the bonds were given over as finally loBt. On the 7th instant Special Agent Fred. Depro. of tho Post Office Depart ment, received information in regard to the matter. He Immediately thereafter left for New Yotk, and consulted with Special Agent Gaylor, lor the New York Post Office. The two then put their heads together, and soon discovered that the bonds in question had been abstracted by a clerk who, about the time of the robberv. was employed in tbe New York post office. The agent arrested the clerk and traced the matter so directly home to htm that he immediately confessed the robber? and dis gorged what he supposed to bo all of the bonds, but which in reality ware only half of them. On further investigation it was ascertained that the missing half had been stolen by the brother of the party arrested, who had induced a still younger brother to cash three of the bonds amounting to I'JOO, at a New York banking ho'ise. V' "'" The younger brother, on being questioned with rcgiird to the mstter, contessed that bis brother had eheu him tbe b aids to cssb. The agents then visited the brother who had given tne hi 'tids to Ins Mj"i'gnr bro'b'-r to bo pushed. currying with thyui the latter as a witness, and, after an interview, he too disgorged the bonds which he bad stolea, so that the whle anio int was recovered. Tbe agents after the discovery of tbe bonds, left for A'ewpoit, and receled almost a public ovation from tho citizen', the greater portion of the bonds belonging to widows and orphan, and which had bstro given up as lost. The guilty paMiesVit Is snH are connected with some of the best families lu Nw York. Too much credit cannot be given to bo untiring and intell gent efforts of Hoeefal Agents Depro and Gaxlorin securing the suo cessful termination of tuis apparently hopeless case. Cast Steel Hollers. Boiler plates mado of cast steel havo recently been subjected to a series of practical experi ments, in order to tet tbelr value as compared with these made of wrought Iron. The trials were made at Harkon't iron works, in West phalia, and the results are reported to have been decidedly In favor of steel. The two b il ers employed were used in connection with the puddling 'nnd rolling mills, and were both of the same form and size, being cylindrical, thirty feet long, four feet in diameter, with dome two feet high by two feet wide: the thickness of the Iron plates was a little over 410 inches, and ihat of the steel plates inch, and tbe respec tive weights 8975 pounds for the iron, and 6842 pounds lor tbe steel. It was found while a pound of coal evaporated 320 pounds of water in tbe Bteel boiler, it evaporated only 251 pounds in the iron one. To perlorm the same amount of work It required In the wrought Iron boiler 28 per cent, more fuel and 30 per cent, more time. At tho Iron Works conducted by tho Messrs. Haikoit, filteen s'eel boilers are now In use, and one of them, which is mado of soft Besse mer steel, has been tound to give quite as good results us the others. There was, likewise, U is stated, a marked diminution in tho amount of iurrustation in the steel boilers, owing, piobnbly, to the extreme smoothness of the sur face; water wbirh gave an lucruitution of ' inch iu two years in tho wiought iron boilers, gave in the bteel boiler an incrustation hardly perceptible.
