An exchange tells us that "thd ladies

They won't lot us smokein railroad Cars,

thing is becoming really alarming.
It is said that ah Indiana preacher
dec'nrcd in a rocont sermon that, "iro
woman who wears false hair is a fit
person to sit in the house of the Lord."
Hut as all the women in his congregation
wore jute instead of false hair, they
thought he was "going" for the women
of the other church.
A Bridgeport rnao who was 'driven in

The "India rubber bustle" is again

Connecticut, close to the baunln-y ?f

One .million of dollars is to bo spent for
the purpose oPorccting 'indicators'' to

A capital piece of newspaper strat
egy was the recent purchase of the
Columbia Union by Judge "Andrews, the
rosnlt of which is that the judge now
controls, ire the Union- ffera/f/, tlie
ablest, brightest and most influential

editor-ih chief of this p-merful journal,
is the accomplished mas'te? of a Etyle

equal in South Caroliua. He ia light or

As a KcpqbKcau we are proud of
tho Union Herald, and as a citizen of

is largoly owing to tho energy and shrewd

Homestead.
This is a liouc question with ninny of j
our citizens.
The RhpT?me Court of the United
States has reocntly decided that the

Since writing the foregoing article we
have eopaulered with soaie care tha
argunieut of tho Uiehniuii I l)i pith,
.rhieh appears on o ir first p ige, as to
the uneon--"titntiontilit)' of certain pro
\ihi,ius of the bankrupt Luv.
The points made by the Dispatch
.1 mount awuply to thw;
That the net Of Congress allowing
hoi;cstead exemptions is uncous1 itntiou
al for the reasons:
lnt. THuVi* ovtnhlen tli?> dfceis'n M ol
the \' irjjiniu* Cou^t of A'ppcHs, ami
2bT That it is not uniform, MS it neither
??respects the State laws mu fixes the
amount itr-t li,"
As to the first poiut, it is suifit i- nt to
reply that the U. iS. CutrstitAitioii, by
expresg forms, empowers Congress to
pass a nn'iforSn Bankrupt law. If the
!n*.f i< mi if' o in there in no question as hi
its constitutionality.
Tlie lh'<jmtih says lb it the law is not
uniform for the reason that '"it neither
respects flio Stato law, nur fixes the
amount ItSeirV'
Of course no man with an'r.unec of
brain wouid HCiiously declare a Bank
rupt ait unconstitutional for the mere
I reason that it failed l?*"respBct" some
law or laws of Virginia ; sTJ We shall
dospat'rlf that pi:t of the fffsp'ttih'*
reasoning sulnniartfy.
As to tho seenid p'rrt* of t}.?- Pis
f.ahh't ireoud point ? that tho act is not
uniform in that it dnea not "V.k the
amount itself" -it i4- tfoougb to Buy, in
the words of the old law maxim, that
id cerfiun est an oil cerium vcddi pptcst?r
what can be made certain, ^or !ix-:d,) in
certain (or fixed)?and to refer the Dis
patch to that part of the Hiukrupt act
which reads as follows :
' It is hereby enacted that they (ih<
lioutcstcad exemp'iois) shall ho tlx
amount allowed by the Constitution and
laws of each State respectively as exist
ing jn tho year lbel ; and that sucl
exemptions shall be valid against debt:
contracted before the adoption and pas
sage of Mich State Constitution tint
luws, as well as those contracted after
the same, and against liens by-judgment
or decree of any State Court, any deci
sion of any such court rendered binco
the adoption and passage cf auch Consti
tutions to the contrary notwithstand
ing."
Applying this section of the act to
tho Constitutions aud laws of the
various States as they stood iu 1S71,
and construing the whole iu the spirit of
tho maxim ubuvc cited, the amount of,
homestead and exemptions allowed itrany
given State is absolutely Uxcd and
absolutely eertaiu.
This disposes effectually of the points
raised by the DlnpuUlt.
But thorc is a graver question than
any raised by the Difputch?and it is
this : The amounts allowed as exemp
tion? are not the same in all tho States .
In South Carolina, for instsuco, the
amo int allowed is $1500, white iu some
other Slates the amount is greater and
iu other', again, less. Ts xwh a Bank
rupt law uniform? This is the question
up-ln which tho U. S. Courts Will
finally have to pass. -??
Our opinion is, that the law is in el]
respects constitutional. Tho reasons
upon which we biso our opinion will
appear in another article.

Mr. Simmer'* Divorce.
Tt lias already been announced that
Mr. Sunnier had obtained a divorce
fro tu bis young and dashing wife, on tho
ground of continued absence?five years
under the Massaohuctts laws. She was
the widow of a millionaire Massachuetts
Congressman--M r. Hooper?and only
twetity two. The Cincinnati bmiuirpr
says :
We know not how it maybe, but it
has been said that a jealousy on the
part of the Honorable Senator had
considerable to do with this unlortunate
proceeding. There was, natura'ly, a
disparity of years and of tastes and
habits.. This almost universally pro
duces an unhappy marriage. Hut in
this instance it was aggravated. Mr.
Sunnier was not only a bachelor of long
matured habits, but he had formed
other connections and associations pecu
liar to hinisolf aside from that fact.
For instance, it was said thai he al
ways had his carriage at the dour at any
party or ball they mutually attended, at
which he would say. "Madame, it is now
10 o'cloek ; it is time to go home, and
our conveyance is below." She would
reply, "I am happy to hear it. Von arc
sh cpy and tired. I??? home and go to
bed, but 1 a III not yet ready. 1 will
follow yon by and by. So. good t ight
my dear." Then, as you have Iteurdi tho
Senator was siid to h i morbidly jealous
of a certain gentleman connected with
the Prussian Embassy, whom he had
himself introduced to his wife, extolled
in the high3*1 terms, and which gautle
in au afterward escorted h r (o many
evening amusements, which her hus
band's habits fprbude him to attend.
One day this young attache rocicved a
very peremptory letter from Herl, n
old. ring him to return home immediate'
ly, and recalling him from the Prussian
Legation, lie was thunderstruck by the
iut< li'gei;'." ; not ? Oiisci ms nl any nll'i nsc
