NEW YUAirr
MORRISON'S VICTORY.
The uncxpccleil rnajirrity of Mr. Mor
rison iu carrying through hl new rode
of rulei for Iht Home of Kcprcenta
lltos, Fays llw X. Y. i'mi, changr-a pro-
foumlly llic rehtloni of the llllncli
statoinutf to the House .ml the country.
flc lvrtut henceforth be rrganMas the
Jender of the Democracy lntil.il division
of Coimrnis; and for wli.ite.vcr wise
measures ni.i) he cixtctcil lie ill enjoy
1:1s full tdmre of itftiry. ami for whatever
mistakes m ly bu-ciMnmlltPil :i peculiar
rejpotiiiliillt7 wiTf rest upon him.
The pofnt of first Importance to the
new iTglme Is thai there shall not be
any great or mineeesrar ineieiiie of the
public expenditures for any of the orill
nary subjects of legislation. Of course,
ff, under the lead of Mr. Morrison, the
House should determine, to adopt the
prudent and patriotic proposition of
Mr. Tilctcir's recent letter upon fortify
fug our seaports, a Kre.it outlay will be,
necessary for th.it purpose; but this
oitsht not to excite nny blame against
the now Democratic leader. The pro
posed works of defence, arc dillieult and
Indispensable, and they cannot be other
than coillyj and if they are wisely
planned and largely and energetically
conducted, only pi-.iise should be be
stowed upon the Congress under -whose
auspices such an enterprise is initiated
and carried through. The people will
not balk at any expense, however seri
mis it may be, that will promote the
safety and the. power of the nation.
For the ordinary subjects of appropri
atfou a ditrerent rule will le Insisted
npon. AW know that If the cuardian
ship of the national purse had been left
to Mr. ItarnTall mid Mr. Ifohnan, the
strictest economy and the most morel-
fes integrity would have been enforced
and It is wfdely believed that ,1 looer
system will now prevail under Mr. Mor-
il son's auplees. If this (should prov
to be the ease, Mr. Morrison will beheld
to account: hut u trust that the out
come uny Justify his anticipations rath
cr than those of the opponents he has
o triuniphantlyilefcatcd.
As for Mr. Randall and Mr. Ilolman
It Is not impossible nor even improbable
that this defeat 111 iv prove the means o
raising llieni to higher po-its In tlm pul
lii-civifi lence and In the alTeelliin of the
Democracy. Int. whatever may Imp
pen, one thing fx er-Hain: tluy will r
main, a they have ever heon, faithful
nntfrtng, devoted senants of the popu
lar welfare. In the list of our public
men of all part Ira there are im brighter
or mom enviable names tliau those o
S.unitel .1. Uamlall and William .S. Hoi
man; aud the gentlemen who have now
so sweeplngly beaten them, may ye
have occasion, perhaps, to keep
truth vividly In mind,

PROHIBITION.
The Chicago Tribune give-, an entire
page to the remits of an luvcjtig-ition
made by live Hon. I. M. Sutton, a State
Senator if Iowa, into the worklngof the
prohibitory lliptor Uw iu tlut Stale.
The Inquiry lias lieenvery tliorotigh,
impartial and Intelligent. It establishes
the fact that the total number of open
saloons Is slightly greater than before
tlictaw went into operation, leing 18.'",
in place, of 18ty). while there are 120
places In which Ihpioi Is sold "on the
sly." Mr. Sutton, who Is a strong nutt
liquor man, concludes tlut prohibition
1ms done great gol fn places where
public sentiment sustain it, mid great
evil where It does not. In his own city,
for instance. Marshalltowii, apt.ii-cof
10.0) inhabitants it is worso than a
failure, for it is Impossible to enforce It.
He strongly favors a lawgiving local
option, and, where prohibition is not
Adopted, a high lici-ii-.' law.

numberof saloons from 13,000 to IKXKi.
In Chicago It has ship up rtOO of the

tionists may say "it was blood money,"
but one thing is sure, it makes the evil
hear a larger portion of the. expense it
entails upon sober people, and Is so far
good until better things will be upheld
by public sentiment.

thusly and truly: The miners and other

maltreat follow 'workmen who do not
grce with them about wages or the

fh'ir money In organUIng secret assocl-
vtfon and paying smooth demagogues
to 3peak for them; but as long as their
ballots are cast at the dictation of tlWr
employers they throw away the only
effective weapon of defeiwe against in
justice which has ever been devised.
The law that gives one citizen as great

In jii'-tleo to Mr. Stiles, of Packcrtoii,
we wish to savto the readers of the Ad
vocate that the "Itoised (."oinmand-
ments" that appeared In an edition of
our p.ier, a few weeks ago, were not
his production, did not come from him,
through him, or by him, but were hand
ed to us by a party who is not, nor ever
has had any connection with the I'aek-
orton works.
im's flew York Letter.
Special to the Caiidos Advocati:.
We. arc aboul to scalp the Mormons
for maintaining a loose matrimoniaj
code according to our system of ethics.
Yet day after day things conic to light
In this goodly city, on which matters at
Salt Lake are quite an improvement.
Wives arc taken and dropped with as
much impunity as a nalr of old shoes,
and husbands are parted without a mo
ment's notice, aud In nine cases out of
ten, tho woman falls to better her con
dition, but on the contrary, she frequent
ly abandons home and children to fol
low some vagabond who eventually casts
her off.
But one of the queerest arrangements
turned up in ourslster city of Brooklyn,
which as usual, furnishes me with the
bulk of my Interesting Items. In the
city of churches and Henry Ward
Beecher, lived a comfortable couple who
had been married eighteen years. Con
trary to all experience, the marriage
had been an exceedingly happy one.
Mrs. M. thought her husband a teapot,
and Mr. 31. thought his wife was a
daisy. About two years ago Mrs. M.
was taken ill, and paitial paralysis in
capacitated her from attending to her
household duties, so she sent for her
friend Mrs. X. to come and take care of
her house and her husband.
Mrs. X. was a widow whose husband
had crossed the Styx some live years be
fore, leaving her in somewhat straitened
circumstances. She was a most est!
mabh; person to look upon, and she
uurseil her slek friend with a devotion
that certainly did her very great credit.
At last It became evident to Mrs. M
that the land of the golden slippers was
not far off so sho summoned her hus
band and the widow to her bedside and
gave them her blessing and told them
that the best thing they could do was to
get married at once and be happy. This
exactly met the views of the widow X.
and Mr. M.' So without waiting for the
unimportant formality of Mrs. M. mak
ing her final exit, the) repaired to the
nearest Jlethodlst parsonage, when the
minister, seeing they were both of age
tied the holy knot, and received two
dollars anil a half, and seventy-five cents
for tho ccrtllicatc, not to mention a
kiss of tho bride thrown Iu. Mrs. JI's
ease was hopeless, and after tho mar
riage sho was removed to the hospital,
where last week she died. All the time
she was In the hospital her husband
paid tho expenses, but at her death her
brother claimed her body and refused to
let her husband attend the funeral, but
after tho funeral was oier he sent the
hjisband a bill for the funeral expenses
The husband rcfusell to settle the bill as
they had not allowed him to attend the
funeral, so the brother had him arrested
for bigamy, though his sister, who was
the Injured parly, if there was any in
jury, was safe in the promised land; hut
bigamy Is bigamy, even if a ghost is the
complainant, and Mr. M. and widow X.
have States prison staring them iu the
face, though everybody immediately
connected is perfectly satislied except
the brother whose only Injury was $87.50
for his sister's funeral.
It Is no uncommon thing for three or
four widows to turn up at thcSurro
gate's Court of men well known In the
community, aud many of whom up to
the tlmo of their deaths, were supposed
to be leading most exemplary lives.
i.ooiung oacK a lew years, .1 man as
well known as Burton, the actor, left
three orfourwldows.every one of whom
seemed to have a legitimate claim to the
property. Marcus Cicero Stanley, the
lottery man, left two widows, each one
claiming to be the original Jacobs.
Davis, the gambler and .sawdust man
who was killed while, trying to rob a
Texan, had two wics, and each of
them declared he was a most exemplary
and affectionate husband; and It is only
a short time ago since I reported the
death of an eminent New York mer
chant who was known by one name at
his olhcc iu New York for twenty years,
ana by anothcrnamc at his private rcsi
dence in Brooklyn, where he resided
with his wife, who swore after his death,
that she never hcanl of his New York
name, and on his will being presented
for probate, his real w ifc whom he had
abandoned twenty-llvo years before, ap
pealed and established her Identity by
her marriage ccrtllicato and other col
lateral proofs, Her husband had ac
cumulated a fortune of SUOO.OOO, and
ever since he, had iWrtoil her she had
1 maintained herself and her children bv
washing. The. remarkable part of the
story is that they were living not a half
mile apart and hid never met or hcanl
of each other in all these, years. It is a
1 Mitifa'-lioii to know that wife No. 1 got
the great bulk of the fortpne. . She left
her Masli-tubs-aJ,d,took possession - of
one of her late huslnind's brown stone
houses furnlslied it magnificently, got
a seal skin sacqiie, a camel hair shawl, J
a pair of diamond car rings, nud 11 wld-
ows veil at seven dollars 11 yard. Sho
took a front pew In a fashionable church
aniMs a' prominent patron of Sunday
Schools and foreign Missions, and now
all the seedy old bachelor and Impe
cunious widowers are going for tho rich
widow. Wlfo number two, who was
perfectly Innocent of any wrong doing,
and who had been a faithful wife to tlie.
dead man for over twenty years, was
not left wholly destitute. She had se
cured $30,000 duringher husband's life,
and a comfortable home besides, so that
she would tic no bad catch for any
bachelors or widowers who are lying
around loose.
This is n perfect paradise for female
swindlers; no sooner Is one disposed of
than another takes her place, and our
best hotel keepers are generally their
victims, though bankers and brokeis are
not beneath their attentions. It Is only
a few months since, a lady from the
South charmed a dozen boarding house
keepers and a large circle of admiring
acquaintances at each place, as she sang
with exquisite power and was an artist
In crayon and oil of no mean ability.
But with all of her talents and accom
plishments, she was a swindler and a
thief, and taking advantage of tho eon
lldence reposed In her, she purloined
rings, breastpins and all such trifles as
were left lying about her friends rooms
aud after working a house to Its ut
most capacity, she generally left. At
last, a noted detective was set upon the
case and the result was the arrest of the
unfortunate woman, whose baggage be
ing searched, disclosed over 200 pawn
tickets for all sorts of things, which she
had stolen. When the detective arrest
ed her she asked permission to step into
an Inner room to arrange her bonnet
where she swallowed a dose of strych
nine and was dead before aid could reach
her.
The latest Is the wife of .1 dead Kng
lish Lord. She gave a couple of sharp
old ladies some worthless checks in
payment forhcr board, ahd as a natural
consequence, brought up In jail. It
would seem that this class of adventur-
rs arc seldom without friends. A very
line lady went through a dozen hotel.
here, living at the rate of a hundred to
1 hundred and fifty dollars a week.
None but the best apartments suited
her, and she rode, from place to place,
not In an ordinary turn out, but In
private carriage, with coachman and
footman iu livery, so that every body
thought she was rolling iu wealth. At
last the calls for the payment of bills be
came pressing, when all at once the
hotel was startled by the announcement
that the. lady's room had been entered
and $10,000 worth of diamonds had been
stolen. Waiters were called up anil ex
amined chambermaids were overhauled;
bell boys were scrutinized; but nothing
was found. Just in the nick of time n
detective dropped in and gobbled the
lady, when a list of her swindles ap
peared, longer than the moral law.
Just as matters were coining to 11 head,
a kind-hearted old gent, was Induced by
her daughter to come forward and settle
all of her bills, and she walked out
of court a free woman, though at one
time It appeared as If she would land In
the penitentiary.
The equitable division of the Yander-
bilt property caused a drop in the mark
ct from two to (he per cent. There ap
pears to be no special reason for this,
but the chronic cussedness of the brok
eis. Tho cxecutois have a year and a
half to settle the affairs and the securi
ties are of such an excellent character
that it is altogether probable that the
major portion of them, will be held by
tho family, and if there was any likeli
hood of tho market being disturbed,
there Is no doubt but a, syndicate would
be formed Inside of twenty-four hours
that would hold the market firm.
Marvellous indeed are these winter
displays that are now crowding the
streets. Never before, in my memory,
has the display ot goods been so beauti
ful ami lavish. It Is a gratification to
know that many of the most beautiful
goods In the market are of American
manufacture. Our schools of design
are making themselves felt In cveiy de
partment of art, giving employment to
thousands whoso lives might otherwlso
be passed in hopeless drudgery.
The weather has been most trying,
alternating between moderate summer
and keen winter. Great preparations
for Santa Clans, and for the little ones
a good lime is coming.

says the whisky men will not attempt
this session to get any legislation in
their interests through Congress.
A bill, introduced to-slay by Senator
Voorhees, to refund Internal revenue

Secretary of the Treasury to refund to
tho persons thereto entitled such
amounts as shall be shown to the satis
faction of the commissioner of Internal
revenue to have been paid prior to July
1st, 1809, as internal revenu" taxes on

in excess of the tax paid on the quantity

Mr. Udmund's introduced in the Sen
ate to-day a bill granting a pension to

granting her the franking privileges.
Mr. Kdmunds said the bills were pre

Keprcscntativc James, of New York,

Time was that the Senate was full ot
soakers and tipplers. It Is not so now.
If wo are. to bellcvo what Senators say
It has become a brotherhood of veritable
Jonadabs. But after all the country is
not so much interested In what or how
much Senators drink, as in what or how
much they do. According to well au
thentlcatcd history there were sonic lol
erably smart men In the bibulous Sen
ates of by-gone days, w horn the people
are proud to honor and remember for
the services they rendered. It will be
so generations hence. The Senators of
to-day will occupy the highest place iu
their countr)'s remembrance, who have
best wrought for their country's great
ness. Still, although sobriety is not all
of statesmanship, it is a good tiling for
even the best of statesmen to keep
sober.
Senator I.osan has no intention what
ever of declaring war against the Ad
ministration. He says he shall only op
pose the confirmation of such men as
ho would oppose If nominated by a tc
publlcan President. His position In this
respect is much more reasonable and
fair than that of many Mugwump Dem
ocrats. The Congress of the United States
might be called, by any person cynically
disposed, the lawyer's paradise. Ac
cording to the new Congressional Direc
tory there are two hundred and eighty
six lawyers in the present Congress.

ceed these figures, as not a few of the
