    A SENSIBLE/VlEW.—The New York
Journal of C,birrincrec, while reminding
its readers Ott General Grant was-not
its choice . the Presidency; protests
agabat o, t 'two forms'of opposition tt) his
'administration: It says: •
" The one is represented by the New
York Wor/dovinch before the inaugu
ration openly avowed its 'enmity, and
promised unceasing and uncompromis
ing 'hostility, to the new incumbent,
Without regard to his methods of policy,
We not think that any measurellof
_ party fealty requires of the most devo
ted
,; party organ such a course of war
fare against Onceessful opponent, and
we believe that decent men of all par
ties are thoroukbly disgusted with it.
"The other is represented by the New
York Sun, Which avows itself in sym
pathy with the new administration, but
now loses no convenientloppKtunity to
'misrepresent and degrade the President
of its own choosing. We do not seek
!'impertinently to pry into motive's; and
we care not whether the distinguished
journalist now editing that paper has
been disappointed in the pursuit of .of
flee, or only rebuked for uffering advice .
which was not,asked or acceptable ; but
we submit that the daily thugs at the
Piesident now published in the Sun are
contemptible in any aspect, and coining
from a professedly Republican source,
degrading to the party with which their
author has'been so prominently connec
ted. Of the two, the World's proposed
opposition to all the measures of file z-td
ministration," good and had alike, al
though it seems to us to be time extreme
of party immorality, is less despicable
than .the course of the avowed friend
who deals in slurs and intiendoes where
he is afraid fairly to criticise or openly
to denounce. If both
_these nuisances
may be abated for thd , remalnder of the
year the reading pubbe will be of_
grateful."

Prof. HORTON, County ,Stipyeintend
cut elect, is a young man, possessing
fine talents, and entirely devoted to
his calling. He has the vigor and en
ergy requisite to the discharge of the
duties of the position, and we begin to
hope that the system nay be fairly tried
after all. The only miiitake.of the Con-_
vention was in refusing to make the
salary $l5OO. Prof. Horton 11111 n o t
have much margin left of his salary if
he gives his time to the work. If you
want work well done you must pay for
it.
'. Mr Fairman, the recently appointed
Postmaster,at Elmira, took possession
of the office Tuesday, evening, 4th Inst.
He says that the retiring / Officers remov
ed the names from the boxes before
leaving, or defaced them, thus making
it almost impossible to accommodate
the public at once. We have known
same pretty mean Johnson men, but
that beats them all hollow. If there is
anything to come out of that transaci
tiou; at all disrepute, the stigm&
cannot rest upon Mr. rairman. How
like sheepticks these Democriitie place
men stick_to the body politic. Mr. Post
ought to emigrate to Baltimore.
Under the head of "Pulpit Phraseolo
gy," a correspondent • pf', the Chicago
.Advance asks if it be pr , Oper for a min
ister of the Gospel to saYA, hi the pulpit,
"it is as false as twill" The editor
opines that such phraseology is not nec
essarily wrong, but may seem to sonic
" a species of pious profanity." it
strikes us that if it be proper for a min
ister to use such expressions in the pul
pit, it is just as proper' for him to use
them out of it; and if it be proper 1'or•
a minister_ to use such language, it is
just as proper for anybody else to use it
anywhere. , elco minister can speak thus
with reverence. It is the language- of
passion or indignation. Altogether, we
have much respect for the Jew anti the
Bramin, neither of whom (hire to speak
the name of the Almighty.
, The debt statement of the nation for
April, just published, shows a decrease

added to the decrease in March $3,000,-

debtedness during the first two months
of Grant's Administration nearly $lO,-
000,000. The people willtnot fail to ap
preciate the gain to the treasury involv
ed in this decrease of the debt, ast car
ries with it a saving of $600,000 this
year.. Mr. Boutwell seems determined
to second Giant's efforts to economize.
lie discharged 29S clerks in his depart
ment during the month of Aprila
saving of not less than.s3oo,ooo per an
num. The people ask that tOw sin
ecures shall be abolished, wherever
they may exist. l'Co man has a legal
lien upon the treasury as an office-hold
er unless his services are needed. Too
many men hrve received salaries of from
$l2OO to $lBOO per annum, yet never put
in an appearnmce save on pay-day.
Gen. Grant will put down that sort of
thing ho 411 deserve distinguished

MARRIAGE A.N.D DIVORCE
Probably such of our readers as live
beyond the borders of Pennsylvania
will gaze upon the long string of ap
plications for divorce, published else
here in this paper, with ast i onish men t.
"hey viii ask themselves if there be
anytl ing fatal to the marriage tie in the
cleat' mountain air of Tioga county ; or,
it there is a sort of purgatory for mar-
Jed\ people, out of which the HotalTa :
Ole c,
, 'mitt of Common Pas is lift i ins'
}the ill-mated in response to their for
mal and passionate prayers.
_
Good 'people, let us answer your ques
tion : The pure air, piiiy woods, clear
waters, and occaional frosts of this lat
itude and longitude are not, singly, or
combined, fatal to - the marriage tie.—
Thoug i lt there be seven ill-mated•peeple
asking to be unhitched and placed in
sitcau qui), it by no means follows that
these fourteen people were wounded II:s
Cupid, betrothed, and wedded in Tioga
county. Thirty-six Miles north-of this
point lies an empire. Some people call
ft New York. Therein man, beim.;wiser
than nature and statutes more pnerful
than natural laws, thoSe whmit 'Squitle
and Dominic join together are not easily
put asunder._ Hence, the ill-mated, af
ter the keen edge of wedded life has
1 1 crumbled off, and "fancy, roving free,"
like a bee sips the nectar of a strange
•ilower, look longingly over the blight
my line between the two States, and
conclude to try We virtue of our climate
and much prayer to the Honorable Court
of Common Pleas.
Therefore, not every application for
legal coriVint to unmarry and remarry
proceeds, from natives. Our laws are
favorable to the rectification of little er
rors of judgment and fancy which ren
dernatried life a burden to many.—
The unhappy married of our neighbor
north have only to reside In Penusyl
vault), a year to entitle the party to the
right of petition for a divorce. This is
not to say that none of those applying
at present are natives. Possibly they
are all. -natives. Nor istl it to reproach
them for parading their griefs before On
unsympathetic public. While standing
second to none in respect for the-ordi
nance of marriage, we certainly do not
hold to the extreme views pressed by
many. Marriage, in thi country,
among Protestants; is but a civil con
tract, It - is-a partnership, "ostensibly
for life, and not i effeeted by the angels,
as many suppos4. In speaking of these
matters it is best to drop formalism and
humbug, and tell the'exact truth. The
institution is intended for the protection
of society by the legal establishment of
families. The law which purlislics big A.
flirty does not go farther in the reason
for its rule than the matter of protec
tion. A writer in a religious
,journal
before us takes another view 9f the
subject, however. He asks : -" Did not
you once, in ' the presence of minister,
and.friends, solemnly declare that you
would love, honor, and obey until death l
did you part?" Well,
,suppose the par=
ties to a divorei• did fid promise; 'and
suppose that the husband forga his
proMitleAecatife a sot; beat his wife and
starved hiS — farnily ; or suppose that
either husband or wife proved infidel
to the relation; What then? Will you
force them tolive,au outrageous, shame-,
ful lie, every - ilay and hour of their
lives, because, forsooth, they
. promiset,
to do what they have not done, and dot
not intend to do? What is that. but to
make the relation a penalty instead of
a mutual benefit?
However, let us look at this matter
of solemn promises to do certain things
hi the future, and see if it will work in
other cases. When a man or woman
unites with a church, he or she prom
ises, soletimly,to be faithful 'to the vows
of a Christian, and to walk uprightly
'before God and man. Time passes, and
the convert becomes a sot, an adhiterer,
profane, neheat. Now what will the
church do? Will it Say—" You prom
ised once, in the presence of the min
ister, of God, and a host of witnesses,
to observe the requirements of a Chris
tian life, to walk uprightly
,before God
and men ; therefore you must remain
in the church, willy-willy ?" Who sup
poses that a possible proceeding?
Now both cases are upon promises ;
and thus far parallel. What is good
and right in one is good and right in
another. Is there any other point dis
similar? The church was ordained by
the Almighty; in the same way mar
riage was ordained. Breach of vow in
one works dismissal ; why not in the
other?
Let divest the matter Mill further
of popular falsehood. What right
have priests or rulers to declare that
0 odjoins any particular man and wom
an together? In hosts of eases the dec
laration is blasphemy; in most eases
the pereoliciating knows nothing
about - the-tifeumstances of the union.
Thousami,S marry for convenience ; oth
eribousands marry for position ; other
thousands marry; because they agreed
to ; and the balance harry because
God made theta for each other. We
' don't propose to say how many belag
in the last named class. But we have
no hesitation about saying that none of
those who marry for conveniimee, po
sition, or to escape prosecution for
breach of promise, are joined by God.
They are joined by the statute of the
state, or by sonic virtue bf the common
Such marriages are not, as we be
lieve, recognized anywhere else save on
the earth. To talk about the sanctity of
such unions is worse than nonsense.—
To stickle aboU holding parties to their
contract when they fight like cats and
dogs, and render the relation hideous,
is to stickle for the husks of things
while the kernel goes begging.
Now, after all we have written, it
must not be s4apposed that we would
make divorce bheap and easy. By no
means. Divorce ought never to be
granted to parties except upon the plain
showing of necessity for the protection
of the family interested. Parties with
out children, who have tired of each
other, and who ask to be released so
that they may experiment elsewhere,
do not deAerve much favor. In the
same class we place those NA; ho do not
need each other, and have separated
amicably. But where the man is a
sot, or a libertine, the law should in
terfere to release the wife, so chained to
livng corpse. And where the wife
liestows her favors upon other men, the
husband is entitled to release from the ,
contract. But - where both parties are 1
infidel the Courts ought to diyorce,
with an injunction upon both not tei\
marry again, under penalty of ptinish- 1
went for bigamy. The deserted wife,
who can show that she did not drive
her husband away, ought to. be heard ;
but the deserter ought not to be free to
cheat another woman ; and vice versa.
To sum up : We hold that divorces
should be granted with a d view to the
protection of both parties and society.
The law has no right to wreek two lives
on panetilio. It is always better for
parties to divide than to lire in constant
violation of the marriage vows; and
better not 'only for parties, but for
the community at large.
The State (Marti, Harrisburg, pub
lishes a list of the names of honest
metiThers of the Legislature. One of the
"e ••t writes to the editor that he has
read the article containing the afore
said list, and is struck with its justice.
W. Forney neglects to mention the
names of, out ! members Niles and
E.traug—as among the elect. We pre
sume that Messrs. Strang and Niles
neglected to fee Mr. Forney before they
left, as in all the State there is not a
more "touchable" man than he. He
oilers to revise the list upon application
by the reprobated. We advise our
members not to ask: it, or complain of
the outrage. To be endorsed by the
Guard after such an obvious bid for
black mail, would damn any man,
though be were pure as the 'driven
snow.
Mr. E. Pollard, of Richmond, is pre
paring a life of Jefferson Davis, em
bracing the Secret History of the Con
federacy. Mr. Pollard was one of the
most influential journalists in the Con
federacy during the Rebellion, and is
believed to be well advised of the se
cret workings of the rebel chiefs. To
Mr. Pollard, as to most men who know
Jefferson Davis, the latter is far from
being a hero. The history will embrace
the conspiracy which began years be
fore the war broke out, and cannot fail
to afford valuable information to' all
who want to understand the cause and
result of the rebellion. The National
Publishing CoMpany, Philadelphia,
will palish the book, which will be
well printed and bound. An agent is
wanted for Tioga County.

Your correspondent "Accidental" complains
that my question is not fairly put. Well—l can say
that it is Jamb evader?. Ho then makes a question
for me, and proceeds to show how ho could an
sn•er it, rushing/matte-1y into the history of the
past, stopping to take breath upon the 11th nr
tielo of our Constitution, not forgetting to call
upon England by the way. It would not be
ger/mine to tho point under discussion, for mo to
go through the history of the struggles 'of the
peoples forming the nations that have progressed
in self government, or to enumerate the various
forms of equalifications for tho elective franchise
that have been used; but for the information of
- "Moidental" I will atato that - in the matter ef

suggestion produced that result, but not in the
manner he puts it. Every election' district is a
miniature republic, and as such note independ
ently, It never came into my mind to send half
a delegate front Mainsburg, and tho - other half of
him fibre Elk. My proposition is susceptible of
improvement; but "Accidental" has not bit the
right way. And what does ho mean bv - "mod

is pure Democratic principles that I wish' to' in=
ealcate through your columns. Does "Aceldoa

am afraid were I sitting upon a Grand Jury, to
ascertain if ho was guilty of so much knowledge,
the bill would be returned marked "Ignoramus."
In choosing out Legislators, and executive officers,
it is for the whole people, not for a party. Diff
erence of opinion as to the best polioy to pursue,
causes thorformation of parties. When caucuses
are hold, those that differ from the party calling
them stay away.* When Conventions tire held
the Delegates propose to, represent the opinion of
the district from which they come. The Ballot.
Box is the only proof whether they do so or not.
