Since writing the foregoing article, we
have considered with so.nc care tli3
argumeut of the Richmond Di p tt>'li,
.v Ii ich appears on o ir first p ige, as to
the uneou-titntloimlity of certain pro
v pilous! of the Bankrupt Luv.
The points made by the Disput, h
anmuui.jiiruifrly to thii^.
That the.art of Congress allowing
homestead cxcmplious is uncons' itntiou
;U for tho reasons:
litt. That/ it? ?VtmiduM th" i^ciaioU of
the Virginia' Cou"'t of A'ppCirls, and
2d That it is not uniform, as it neither
? respects the State laws not fixes the
amount it,, if."
As to the first point, itr is sufficient to.
reply that the U. S. Cointitlitinu, by
express terms, empowers Congress to
pass a uniform haukrupt law. If the
hrAf [<t uniform there is no question as hi
its constitutionality.
The liispntdi says that the law is not
uniform fur the reason that ''it neither
icspects flic Slato law, nur fixes the
a mount itself*."
Of course no inatf with nh'otincc of
brain would hciiotisly declare a Bank
rupt net unconstitutional for llie mere
i reason that? it faded t??"respcct" some
law or laws id Virginia; HO W*: shall
dcspA'fclf that put of the /jts/ntrh's
reasoning suln'mirily.
As tu tho sen-dud p<rrt>ofti.v Dt\
Y?//<//'* srSOud point ? that tho act is not
.uniform in that it does not "fiet the
amount itself"?it i* ?uougli to suy, in
tho words of the old law UKixim, that
id cn'lum ett qiiod cerium rrJdi p<>,'isf?
what can bo made certain, (or lix.'d,) m
Certain (or fixed)? nnd to refer the DU
pntch to that part of the Bankrupt act
which roads as follows-:
' It is hereby enacted that they {the
homestead cxempiioiis) shall be tho
amount allowed by the Constitution, and
laws of each State re-peotivoly sr exist
ing in tho year 1871; and that such
exemptions shall !)?? valid agSiDSt debts
contracted before tlie adoption and pas
sage of Mich State Constitution and
laws, aB well as those contracted ufter
the same, and against liens by-judgmout
or decree of any State Court, any deri
sion of any auch court rendered since
the adoption and passage of such Consti
tutions to the contrary notwitbstnod
ing."
Applying this section of the set to
tho Constitutions aud laws of the
various States as they stood iu 1ST 1,
and construing the whole iu the spirit of
tho maxim above cited, the amount^ of
"hoMicsfesd and exemptions allowed in any
given Stale is absolutely fixed aud
absolutely certain.
This disposes effectually of the points
raised by the Dispatch.
Hut there is a graver question than
any raised by tho Dispatch?and it is
this : Tho . amounts allowed as exemp
tion; are not the samo in nil the States .
Id South Carolina, for instance, the
amoint allowed is $1500, while iu some
other States the amount is greater and
in other', again, less. Ts such a 15 ink
rupt law uniform ? This is too question
up-ln which the U. S, Courts Will
finally have to pass. <e?
Our opinion is, that the law is in al]
respects constitutional^ Tho reasons
upon which we b iso our opinion will
appear in another article.

Mr. Simmer's Divorce.
It has already heen announced that
Mr. Sum ner had obtained a divorce
from his young and dashing wife,?. n the
ground of continued ehseucc?five jl.ts
under the Mnssaohuclts laws. She was
'the? widow" 'of'a millionaire Massachuctts
Congressman -Mr. Hooper?and only
twenty two. The Cincinnati Enquirer
nays:
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 unfortunate
proceeding. Thero was, natura'ly, a
disparity of years and of tastes and
habits.. This almost universally pro
duces on unhappy marriage. Hut iu
this instance it was aggravated. Mr.
Sunnier fraa not only a bachelor id' long
matured habits, but he had formed
other connections and associations pecu
liar to himself aside from that fftet.
For instance, it was said that ho al
ways had hia carriage at tho door at any
party or ball they mutually attended, at
which he would say, "Madame, it is now
10 o'clock ; it is time to go homo, and
our conveyance is below." She would
reply, "I am happy lo hear it. You arc
skepy and tired. (!?> home nnd go to
bed, but 1 am not yet ready. 1 will
follow yon by and by. So, g'?>d eight
my dear." Then, a* you have heard, tho
Senator way said to b ; morbidly jealous
of a certain gentleman connected with
the Prussian Embassy, whom he had
himself introduced to his wife, extolled
in the highest terms, and which gentle
man afterward escorted her to many
evening nmu-emcnts, which her hus
band's habits forbade him to attend.
Out? day this 3'oung attache rocioved a
very peremptory letter from Berlin
ordering hin; to return homo immediate*
ly, and recalling him from the Prussian
Legation. He was thunderstruck by the
iutelltgenen ; not tonsci >ns of any nfli nso
against his government, ho Qould not
conceive what it moan t. I lo therefore
wrote to an influential friend at llOIIIO' to
mal.: iimu.ity'S of Count Bismarck a* lo
what wai tho real reason fur t'.is very
?v:'r ordinary pr -coding.
In rcniy, ho was i i'.iar.u ;!i it tay
cliuii'tsnn cf t'.c ScnuiO '.'o:n'nilteo on
l^iei-n llo.?li as, v'i i\'us then Sc.i? ,*!
tor Charles Sunnier, lud.writ.eu *\ letter \

Count did not consider that he was au
thorized to refuse a rennest coming front
such an Uiftuontial u?urco i.i ib * g >wt.
moiit to which ho was accredited. Of
course the young I'russian getitl ruau
duly informed Mrs. Sumnor of all this |
mid rumor hath it that that lady wis
not tit all phased wilh the Con-dupC of
her hushatjd in the matter. T!:e tier
man Secretary returned ho in and for
a time flic cloud upon tho marital rela
tions-of the Senator disappeared.
But by and by, as it was announced
to tho public, and, we think, by An
agicement hotweon tl'.e parties, Mrs.
Susaner'a beult h r.<p?irn.l that she
should leave I bo American cout.motit,
und breathe f r a time the air of Hump".
This was accordingly done, and the
atmosphere has been so bracing and tho
scenery ? ao pleas ant-?to Nty nothing of
her companionship?that shv has linger
ed lhere so long as to enable Mr. Sum
ner ti) obtain the divorce for wilful
abseuco, required by ilu^st.tuto. Mr.
Suinnrr will resume hi-old bachelor re
