Al tbe East tby alwaya wind up trades
gainst tbe West by pointing to our divorce
laws and declare that "divoron made easy"
In lodisna, Ohio and otber Western States,
is a moral disgrace and stigma to courts
and to people. And yst there has lately,
la staid Massachusetts, been a dtvoroe
granted which, so lar as moral or legal mer
its are ooneerned, Is as great a judloial out
rags as ever dlsgraoed back-woods Indiana
court-house. We refer to tbe,divorce grant
ed between Senator Sumner and his wife
Tbe theory of the law or dlvorae is that
then must bo no Collusion between the par
ties, and that whenever it Is discovered that
the man and wile are acting tn concert In
firing np a decree of divoioe, or whenever
it appsars that either party with tbe conni
vance of the otber party, has deliberately
f.rolshed oause ordlvoroe for the purpose
of securing a decree, tbe proceeding shall
be dismissed. In otber words tbe proceed
Ing lor divoore aiust not bo an amicable
affair, or an agreed affair. In the case of
Sumner and. wife, the two ''don't like eaob
other pretty well." Hotb war beyond
chicken period When tbey were minted,
nd it Is very oaay to Imagine that it tbe
wife Is like tbe husband, no one bouse Is
Urge enough to bold both, unless one coo
seats to be tbe mere slave of the other.
The upshot ol tbe marriage was a contin
ued "unpleaaantnegs, and so tbe wife goes
broad, stays tbe requisite length of lime
to amount to legal desertion and thus tbe
Senator prooures divorce, on tbe supposed
ground tbet;be etlll loves bis wire, Is aox
Ipus to live with her, has never consented
to her absence, but that she bad deserted
bin. How la that for "divorce made
easy!" t .

Here is a new chance for geographical
speculation and a new Incentive to Arctic
exploration. Tbe "Polaris" expedition
found In Newman's Bay, Iweity miles north
or where the "Polaris" wintered, In latlr
tilde 81 0 3 a considerable quaolty of drift
wood among the ice 00 the shore. It bad
evidently beeo long in tbe water and was
much decayed. The largest piece wits six
inobes lu diameter. Tbe noticeable fact
was that soms ot it bore evident marks of
having been cut dowo. Wbo cut it down?
On wbat land was it cult Certainly It
never grew in the neighborhood where
found. Pid It drift down Irom tbe suppos
ed open Polar Seat or in case there is no
open Polsr Sea, but only a channel crossing
tbe Polar region, Irom wbat portion of tbe
Eastern Hemisphere did these saplings
drill t If the drill wood could make tbs
passage across, why not a vessel f In course
of lime we sbali bave another Arctlo expe

taureot. Ha was arrested In Buffalo In
February last, charged with breaking into
Robison's jewelry establishment ol tbat city
Ha has rema'oed In j til since his arrest, and
on Monday laat waa tried and convicted.
The judge sentenced him to brd labor lu
the Auburn State Prison lor the period ol
three years and six months.
It Is understood Taylor was convicted on
the evidence of tbe man who manufactured
the burglar tools. It seems accordiog to
the testimony of this man, wbo resides at
Rochester, Taylor came there and bad tbe
tools manufactured. When brought into
tbe jail at Buffalo where tbe prisouers were
all assembled together, be picked out Tuy

bo was oonviotsd and aent down.

A correspondent Informs us tbat a part Or
Piuin lowoshlp was visited by a rain, wind
aud bail storm 00 tbe 4th Inst. Tbe giiFf
commenced about hall past tbree o'oloo lu
tbe atlernooo and caused great del of
damage. In Sunville a bouse was moved
ten leet Irom its Inundation and tbe entire
ln.t blow n away. Three oihi r buildio.s
were unroofed and the Presbyterian church
slightly damaged. The farms arouod Se
ville suffered heavily. Samuel Axtel'e
bouse was partially nnroofed and lis Jlitnher
heavy oak nearly alt destroyed. Tbe
large trees were torn up from tbe
ground and piled In one massive heap
Twu barns, belonging respectively to Jes.
M'Clelland and R R Gruees. bad tbe greater
portion of their roofs carried , away. The
fences in the track ol tbe storm were blown
dowo leaving the crops exposed. Orchards
were prostrated and laid as tbotigb tbey bad
beeo chopped, Such was the violence of the
storm that It swept down tbe heaviest tim
ber. Our correspondent does not know how
fur Ihe torando extended but he estimates
its width at half mile. Tbe hailstones
were otjuncommon size and could be seen
next day where the wind bad swept them
in piles. On tbe 4lh day or June, 1858 fil
teen years ago Piuin township was visited
by a similar storm, which all tbe old nibab
Hants remember.
A young msn named I P Cunfleld, com
mitted suicide in Sugarcreek township, near
the Poor House, 00 Tuesday afternoon, hy

mlttiog tbe deed, but was unconscious. Tb
deceased bad been subject to spells or der
angement but it was supposed be was br.
oomlngless liable to tbeir attacks. He
seemed melancholy at times but gave no lu
dications of the terrible deed be was about
to, commit. His parenla resided near Mead

Waterlord, Erie oouuty, woich has lately
stirred up, from center to circumference,
over tbe series of forgeries commuted by
Williams, Is now agitated over another
afTiir, which in Its' details, has a p ecTiliar
Chicago flavor. Some time' since a girl was
married against bar parent's wish; but, tu
time, the couple were forgiven, and all went
well for a lime. But Ibe green-nyed nioo
ster, tbat made Othello mad, found a I01I4'
log In the breasta of both, aud tbe result
was a divorce. Time healed the breach,
however, and one day laat week the pair
eloped and were a second time married.
Chicago can't best it.

A Vicksburg paper says tbe policemen of
