The excess over the iportion to be credited to Camden was from Pennsylvania, and mainly from Philadelphia, Many of the parties were jchildren, and the marriages were die- igracefal. In one instance the bride was y thirteen years | fifteen The New Jersey legisiature seems dispoosed stamp out this | vicious pratice, and its assembly on Tues {day passed a bill fixing a fine of $100 for | performing & marriage ceremony with- out the production of a license from the county surrogate. It is presanmed the bill will pass the sedate and become a law. Uniformity in marriage and divor- ce laws is the great need of the times, and as an amendment to the Federal congressional control with a view of securing uniformity is impracticable, it would seem to be wise to secure uni. form State laws on the subject. The liquor men are rejoicing over ihe Supreme Court's decision of the matter of sales in original packages, and if oot careful may yet get themselves into trous ble in some of the States, They propose, it is understood, to es tablish houses nearly everywhere for the sale of gpirits in original packages, and have these packages put up in all sizes from a gill to five gallons, to suit all comers, This is an evasion of the spirit if not of the letter of the decision, and may result in test cases and another opinion or opinions defining “original packages” to mean a gallon or more. Meantime, however, the States having prohitory I‘guor laws are in danger of being deluged with whisky, and States having the license system may also get a similar dose from men dealing under United States licenses. There may, perhaps, be legal recourse against these latter, bot they may do a great deal of harm before being shut off, 1f not there will be a genuine boom in the bottle and keg manufacturing ius dustries and cleo in intemperance, | year marriages, against J larger Jersey only old and the groom to NO.
