A SIINSATIORAL DIVORCE SUIT Chicago is now absorbed in the die gusting details of It suit Joy. divorce brought by the wife of Rev. Hart L. Stewart, a young Prespyterian clergy tuan lof that- city. 'llte parties have hitherto occupied a high social position, as the lady does now, she being the daughter of a leading and wealthy mer chant:: The ease came on last Wednes day-in the Superior Court and is still in progress. Sidney ffmith, Esq., open ed the case on the paiet of the compiain nut, and in a speech of some length re viewed-Vac history of the affair from its inciprendr giving also a succinct ac coufit of th ' s alleged facts upon which the action for divorce is based. The counsel stated that not only would it be proredthat Stewart had been guilty of 1 , adultery, but they should introduce "a ' cloud of 'witnesses" whose testimony would show that the respondenthad re peatedly committed that offense at di vers tames and places, anal with several ditfertnt women, in the city of Chicago, durilig the years 1F , 65 and Ib6d, and that he had Ibl months previous to the time when - 121s Wife left him, led the life of a - - profligate mid libertine. .A. W. Arling ton, - E opened the case for the defen dant. 'lie sq., gave a lengthy history of Hart L., - F.tewart, from his birth to the Preient time, and also alluded to most of the leading-points in the case as they had thus far been developed; He al leged that a "conspiracy" had been formednrith a view of inveigling the defondantinto the commission of Sets that would entitle his wife to a decree of divorce, that female "detectives" had' been employed for that purpose, etc.":At the conclusion of Mr. Arling ton's speech the examination of witness es Was commenced and a large amount of testimony has been taken. The tes timony-of three witnesses_ showed that Stewart had been criminally intimate with a - certain "woman of 'the town" named Rosetta Dudley ; that he had fre quented a house of ill repute on North Wall street, kept by one Emma Hod ges ; that he had on one occasion bor toted money of a witness while the two were visitors of that "establish ment;" and that witness saw defendant after receiving the money, retire to a bedroom with a girl, named Mary Ann, an inmate of the house, with the evident intention of spending the night riilr her. Also, that Stewart had been on similar terms of intimacy with a., West Side demirep, and a woman at Michi gan City whose name is not given ; and furthermore, that this model husband had in several instances given notes of introduction to several fast young men, to be present to lewd women who were his particular "friends" and pets. Oth er facts of a similar character wets also developed in evidence. The crowd in attendance fills every inch in the court rooms. One of the-wituesses has a poor opinion of Cilicatro. She, in her testi mony, speakA of Chicago as - "this mis erable place, Chi eago, 'and' this wretch ed place," and gives her opinion of the estimate set - upon the female character in that city, by testifying that "they want here to place every woman on a level, no matter bow hard she works or how old she is ; I am an honest woman, and lum ready to face all Chicago and the United States; I never heard such deeds before ; I shall leave when my -on is settled to receive me." Among these persons With front seats were sev cral clergymen. Tilt COLORED PEOPLE OF Tlll doi 11- 1:R1 STATES.—Genera] 'Howard has written a letter to Secretary Stanton, in which he estimates the number of ne groes now alive in the different South ern States. Comparing his estimates with the returns of the census of IS6O, it appears that in North Carolina, Louisi ana and Florida, the number of blacks remadua uearls the same. There is a decrease in Georgia of nearly 66,000, in v - irginia of 40,000, in South Carolina of :7.000, in Missouri of IS,OOO, in Missis sippi of 17,000, and in Arkansas of 11,000, The only State in which an increase is reported are Texas and Tennessee, the gain in-eaeli being about 17,000. There are no returns from Alabama or Kentucky. The movement of the colored population appears to have been from the interior to the coast, and north ward. The emigration from the border States into the original free States, has been larger than is generally supposed. :Missouri, Virginia, Maryland and Ar kansas, have lost most from this cause. They have been partially compensated, -however, by a straggling immigration from the southern tier of States. Of the immense number of negroes who fled into our lines, or followed our armies, a very large proportion have not returned to their homes. The ex ceptional eae,-, of Texas and Tennessee are easily explained. During the later years of the war thousands of negroes were shipped to Texas by their masters, and there bemixte free ; while in Tenn essee the blacks find now the protect ion and security of a loyal government. WORLD MUTUAL LIFE TICSUDANCE COMRA.NY.—This institution, located in the city of New York, commends Itself to the public by a number of special features, to wit : Mutual Premiums lower than those of a majority of the Life Insurance Companies in the United States ; Non-Participating Premiums lower than those charged by any Com pany in the world ; Dividends increase annually after two years,with the age of the Policy ; Losses Paid in Thirty Days after due notice and proof ordeath, and Thirty Days Grace allowed in the Pay ment of Premiums. The Non-Partici pating feature of this company offers peeuliarindueements to persons of fixed income who desire to pay an even sum, and to secure at once the largest insu rance therefore. J. F. Frueauff, of Hol lidaysburg, is the General Agent for this State, to whom applications for in surance, further information, and per sons desiring local agencies, should be directed. PROGRESS of CALEFADENIA.—The San Francisco Builein says that the reports from the district assessors, as far as re ceived, indicate a taxable wealth in the state of more than $192,000,000.—an in crease upon the returns of 1865 of near ly 50,000,000. The total increase of state property values in 1865 was only $3,678,60.1. An increase of V.)3,410,817 Was reported for 1864, but the returns were meagre and incorrect, twenty-two counties which had sustained great losses, making no returns at all; so that the statement has no value for the pur poses of comparison. In 1863 there was a decrease of 510,530,677, resulting from the drought mainly ; and it is improba ble that this loss had been recovered and $20,000,000 added in oue year. Gen. Sheridan, in refusing to allow civic honors to be paid to the body of the Rebel Geu. Johnson ; has now a claim upon the respect of the nation. In this brief letter to the Mayor of Gal veston, Texas, he says: "I have too much regard for the memory of the 'brave men who died to preserve our 'Government, to authorize Confederate demonstrations over the remains of any one who attempted to destroy it.' These are noble words and will ring through the laud. WE see that Dr. liumphrey, of Toga county, has introduced a bill into the Legislature for a railroad from Law renceville to Wellsboro. Good.

This is a good opportunity for some practical printer with moderate capital. The Philadelphia Prc.e has lately procured new type, and is now printed in the highest. style of the art on beau tiful white paper. The Press has no ri val in Pennsylvania. It is, unquestion ably, the ablest and most enterprising journal in the State, and its circulation is wide and stable. As a newspaper it takes rank with the other great dailies.

However, we incline to think that the above proclamation is of soma nrol TCIII - , Signifying—NOTlllNG." sv.us, AND BE OLDAIN The Cholera carnivalextends through a space of three years: Last year was the initial 3;ear in the Western Hemi sphere. We should prove remiss in duty were we to (ail to raise thle voice of warning to the general publL Cleanliness and health abide together. Filth and pest; tilence'occdpy - the same bed, and pesti lence . abideth not with cleanliness a day and a night. " But you raised the voice of warning last year; and the cholera did not tome after all." That is true, as regards Tio ge county ; but the scourge touched the seaboard cities, halted, sporadically, in lesser inland towns, and found work to do In the uncleansed slums of the pro verbially dirty cities of the West, where it slew thousands. New York escaped decimation only because of its efficient Board of Health. For once in its histdry that city was tol erably dean. The same is true of Phil adelphia, and other seaboard cities. But the present is the culminating year of cholera. The defences were built high last year, but they will need building higher this year. Where you washed once last year you must wash twice this year; where you used one pound of lime and copperas then, use two now; and where you swept then, you should scrub now. • We address farmer, its well as villag ers. None can hope to escape the pen alty affixed to wanton violation of the laws of health. Death can go wherev er noxious influences exist, be they in town or country, palace or hut of logs. We can speak from observation ; for it so happened "that we saw the ravages of cholera in 1849, both in New York and in the country. Themost frightful exhibition of its mortal force which we saw, was in the country, not more than six miles froth the sea, and on table land overlooking the Atlantic. The lo cation was healthy, but the local influ ences were the reverse. Desirous of the prevention of epidem ic diseases in this county, we submit the following schedule of precautions to be observed by householders in town and country, if they would discharge a plain duty : 2. The premises should be thoroughly cleansed and whitewashed, as early as may be practicable. 2. Drains to carry off waste and slops should be opened and cleansed with lime. Vegetable waste from cellar and kitchen should be scattered afar from dwellings, unless fed to thecows. • 3. The accumulated waste of 'winter, lying about back premises, should be scrupulously cleaned up and carted to the garden: 4. Privies and water-eluseteshould be thoroughly deodorized with chloride of lime and copperas ; Ott of the lime to 2lbs of copperas Will deodorize 40 square feet of sink for a month, when the sink is properly drained. 5. Keep a shallow dish of chloride of lime standing on the cellar bottom con stantly. Every vestige of vegetable waste should be removed from the cel= lar at once. , 6. Personal cleanliness, through use of water, is a great preventive of bowel diseases; a towel bath on aritbsOn the morning Is better than a full bath. It is also well to abstain from , all salted meats in the spring of the year. Salt is a stimulant, and its excessive use is weakening to the stomach and bowels. RADS, TAKE NOTICE!—Iti Canada beefsteak sells tor ten cents , a pound, butter for neventeen, laid potatoes for twenty cents a bushel. Silver coin Is so commonS commodity that it sells at a dieconnt of four per cent.' Taxation, though bawler tbari It ought to be, is ae nothing com pared with the galling burden that rests on the "literacy" of The United Szates.—Catskill Be ecrnier. -Being " a Rad.," we accept service, and take notice. We shall' nonsult friend Hall. We have been led to believe, by ob servation, by eiperience; by tbh logic of common sense, as well as by the a/- most universal assentor political econo mists, that when the• producer's profits are small, Literacy is tight, times are hard, and the pulses of industry lan guid. When. potatoes are a drug at 20 cents a bushel, and butter with a wealt—ile -wand at 17 cents, production drops to its ininimurn. Farmers cannot make !within like day wages raising pota toes'at twenty cents.' Wehoperikat tatoes will average 50 cents per bushel, butter 25 cents, and cheese 15 cents per pound, from this time forward, until the race shall be translated to a 'condition in which eating shall be ignored. - It is well known that the producing interest underlies and upholds all oth ers;•thata steady and generous market for staples always brings good times ; that the health of commerce depends upon a strong and unvaryiugetirrent of trade ; and these conditions amduce to prosperity, not so much-by high prices as by the abolition of the system of long and uncertain credits. The paragraphat the bead of this ar tiele is essential demagoguery. It is the estimating of the contents of a solid by its length, without reference to its width and depth. , It is the common measure Used by ,"derriocratte" orators and ed itors in misleading the people. Forthis reason we "take notice," and not to thrust personally at the, author. But upon that text. we purpose hanging facts, which cannot be shaken by any amount of the " deranitiou nonsense" employed by the political Mantilinis of this country. 1. Not the large 'taxpayers, but the small ones, rather, raise the hue-and cry about taxation. 2. Taxation is never burdensome so long as it is proportioned to the rate of industrial development and production. 3. 'While the accumulated capital of the country is made to bear a higher rate of taxation than labor, the produ cer cannot be oppressed. —We affirm, that the three proposi tions foregoing fairly state the condition of things now existing in this country, and the conditiOn which has existed for five years past ; in support of which we submit the following facts: Ist - That the producer has made greater progress toward, independence during these five years of high prices and extraordinary taxation, than he made during any term of ten years pre vious. 2d—That treble the number trave paid for their farms and stock, in the same period, that paid for farms during any ten previous years; and beside, paid the extraordinary taxes levied. 3d—That men pay these extraordina ry taxes with less distress, than. they did the ordinary taxes before the war. -Ith- - --That every man can pay double the ante-war tax to-day, with less dis tress than he could half that tax before the war ; and the purchase of machine ry, in every department .of,lahor, baa quadrupled during the last live years. As to silver being at a discount in that refuge of assassins, deserters, and ske daddlers from draft—Cauada—we can only say that that is conclusive evidence that Canada silver coin is alloyed, and falls four per cent. below the gold stan dard. Certainly, an ounce of pure sil ver is always a standard of valuation. Every Copperhead sheet that comes into this office has paraded a pretended correspondence between the depraved monster who edits the La Crosse .Derr. iierct and - Gen. Butler, touching a libel suit instituted by the latter against the ,Former. The Copperhead press made a great flourish of trumpets about it, as an evidence that the La Crosse monster bad stung Butler into retort. However, in the N. Y. Tribune of the Bth, Gen. Butler pronounces the pre tended correspondence a forgery, and the alleged suit for libel wholly a fabri cation of the La Crease monster. We await the publicatfon of the Gen eral's admirable disclaimer, by the hon orable gentlemen who published the forged correspondence which It quashes. Of course these high-minded editors will hasten to wash their hands of all complicity with a felony of that aort— a sort of felony indulged in only by graduates of Penitentiaries, or by those whose crimes entitle them to perman ent board and 'lodging in some one of those Correctional Public Charities. CONGiESS. Feb. 1. The Senate passed the bill regulating the organization of the House by a vote of 81 to 6. The bill provides that the clerk of the House shall enter upon the rolls only the names of Rep resentatives from States represented in the previous Congress. The bankrupt bill was taken up and. discussed, but without reaching a vote: The House took 4) the tenure of office bill. The Johnson men opposing it as an encroachment upon the Constitution al rights of the President. An amend ment prohibiting the President from removing Cabinet officers without the consent of the Senate, was defeated by a vote of 76 to 78. Feb. 4. In the Senate a Reconstruct tion measure was introduced. It de clares the State governments in Vir ginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Mississippi, Alabama, Louisi ana, Florida, Texas and Arkansas with out authority of Congress, and there fore void. Itreduces each State to a military, district to be subject to the mili tary authorities of the United States, until such time as Congress shall deem it compatible with stable peace to ad mit them to representation. The Vice President presented a me morial of the Legislation of Wisconsion asking Mr. , Doolittle to resign. The Bankrupt bill was taken up but no vote was had. In the Itortseiifesolutiau 'declaring that the piiblie interests will not justi fy a greater curtailment of the currency in circulation than $4,000,000 per month, or $48,000,000 per year, was laid over under the rules. Another, declaring that there shall not be, during the current year, any reduction of the amount of greenbacks in circulation was; under the operation of the previous question adopted by vote of 87 to 63. Feb. o.—The Senate took up the Bank rupt Bill, and after materially amend ing it, upon the final passage it was lost by a vote 20 to 22, It Is reported that the vote wiU be reconsidered. The H one took a recess to receive Gen. Phil. Sheridan, afterwhich it took up the army and Indian Appropriation bills and made some Progre°s. ' Feb. 6.—The Vice President laid be fore the Senate the balance of the Sew ard-Motley correspondence, it being the letter of one McCracken imputing dis respectful conduct toward the President and Mr. Seward on the part of our for- sign ministers. It nppears that the idi otic letter of Seward to Motley, which induced the latter to resigiihis mission, WAS based upon this purely anony moils letter of one who signed himself McCracken, and pretended to hail from New York. No such person is known in or around New York. Mr., Dixon, of Connecticut, offered au amendment to the Constitution differ ing but little from that proposed to the States last session. it makes the Con gressional representation upon the whole number of voters, and aims at giving the elective franchise to all taxa bles without distinction of race or color. Its chief objegtionable feature is a'prp ty qualification for voting: The tenure of office bill was ta ken up, the question being upon the House amendment excepting Cabinet officers from the class not to be removed without the advice and consent of the Senate. The amendment was rejected by a vote of 17 to 28. The new _Recon struction bill was reported. We have given the main features of this bill al ready. It was laid over one day. Feb. 7.—The Senate received a des patch announcing the passage of a bill for impartial suffrage in the Tennessee House of Representatives. The civil appropriation bill was taken up. In the House the Reconstruction bill was under discussion. The Johnson men declaimed vehemently against the bill, and a few of them indulged In threats of civil war if the bill should pass. The debate continued untilnear ly eleven o'clock P. M. r EWA SYLVANIA LECEOL ATTIRE lan. 29.—A bill repealing the 3d sec tion of an act incorporating the Tioga Navigation Company, was referred to the proper Committee of the Senate. A. bill to provide for the redemption of $23,000,000 of the public debt, now past due, passed the Senate. A resolution protesting against the confirmation of Edger Cowan as Minis ter to Austria, also was adopted. In the House, the act to repair the Cowanesque river came up on a third reading and passed finally. There is abill before the Legislature to provide for the better and more im partial selection ofjurors in the several courts of the State. We present a brief digest of its provisions, as follows : 1. That on the 2d Tuesday of Octo ber of the present year and triennially thereafter, two sober, intelligent, and judicious persons shall be elected as Jury Commissioners in each county, such persons not to eligible for re-election more than once in six years. Each elec tor to vote for but one person for, such Commissioner, and the two persons having the greatest number of votes shall be declared elected. 2. The Commissioners are to meet at the County seat at least thirty days prior to the first term of the Court of Common Pleas in every yedr, and select alternately from the 'whole number of male taxable citizens of the county a sufficient number of sober, intelligent, and judicious persons to serve as jurors during the year, and place the names in the wheel. • 3. The said Commissioners, with the Sheriff, or any two of them, shall draw panels ofjurors to try issues in fact as at preseneit is done; the Comng iors and Sheriff to be obligated as the County Commissioners and Sheriff are now obligated. 4. Repeals all previous laws, relating to drawing Jurors except those sections which relate to the sealing and custody, and penalty for anything done or omit ted, touching Keeping, locking, seal ing, or breaking the seal of any jury wheel, or relating to the selection of Jurors. 5. The jury Commissioners to be paid the same as the County Commissioners. 6. Penalties for refusing to serve. 7. Court to appoint persons to fill va cancies occurring from death and res ignation. We regard this measure as eminently just and proper in its object and di rection. The present system is vicious and should be abolished. The selec tion of jurors ought not to be subject to political bias in any respect; and 'we believe that it is as little subject to bias of that sort in Tioga County as it would be under the proposed law. Still, we object to excepting any County from the operation of the law. Let it be per fected and passed, say we. .Tan. 30. Mr. Humphrey read inplace a bill to incorporate the Wellsboro and Lawrenceville railroad company. Feb. 1. A bill providing that the su pervisors of any township may contract with the owner or owners of any land through which any public road passes, to open or repair the same at the will of the occupant, came up on third reading. The expense thus made is, by the bill, to be credited on the taxes of the con tractor. Mr. Cowles moved to except the Coun ties of Tioga, Potter, McKean and Clin ton from the operation of the law.— After some debate the bin was referred. It is a vicious bill, and should be voted down. In the House, Mr. Humphrey pre sented a remonstrance from 800 citizens of Tioga County against the repeal of the Poor House law.
