The Secret Process of a Court An
nulling a .Tlarrlajfe ISettureeu
Ur other and Sister.
Iho curious story of a woman
seeking the aid of Justice Neiison
to dissolve the marriage she had
Unconsciously entered into with her
own brother, has found a sequel in
the judicial separation of the cou
ple. The case has been sur/ounded
with much secrecy, as the Justice
and others concerned have endeav
ored to kept the facts from publici
ty for the sake of the unhappy wo
man.
Justice Neiison was trying a ease
in the Chambers of the Brooklyn
City Court, about two weeks ago,
when a welldreased wo mat) ap
proached the bench, and, asking
the Justice’s attention, said that she
was in great distress, as she had
discovered that her husband was
her own brother, of whose existence
she had no knowledge until she be
came his wife. The Justice asked
her if she bad lived with her hus
band since the discovery, and she
replied that she had not. The
J ustice advised her to consult a law
yer, who would suggest the proper
legal remedy for her case.' The
woman consulted a lawyer, and the
papers were duly prepared, and the
case was referred to Mr. F. E. Da
na to hear and determine. The
law providing for secrecy in di
vorce cases has been rigidly applied
in this instance, but the story is said
to be as follows:
Two Swedish brothers, named
Peterson, made the acquaintance
many years ago of two Irish girls
named Connor, who were sisters,
and were domestics. One of them
went to live with one of the Peter
sons, without, however, the ceremo
ny of a marriage in church, while
the other, who was Annie E. Con
nor was regularly married to the
other brother. A few months after
this marriage the first sister gave
birth to a son, who, when but a day
or two old, was sent to his married
aunt. The hoy was treated as her
child by his aunt, and was named
Peter Peterson, after his foster
father. A girl was born two
years later to the boy’s mother, and
soon after her birth Peterson de
serted the mother. The mother
had her christened Annie E. Con
nor, her own name.
The children g‘*ew up as cousins,
and regarded each other as such. —
The girl is said to have been at
tractive though delicate, with blue
eyes and an abundance of light
hair. Her brother was strong and
manly. llis supposed mother, who
was really his aunt, educated him
| in the common schools, and then
put him into business. He pros
pered, and when his supposed moth
er removed from the city he fre
quently visited the house of his
supposed aunt, who really was his
mother, and was thrown into the
society of his supposed cousin. The
two were fond of each other’s soci-

etv, and were much together, but
it was not suspected that the ten
der affection of lovers existed be
tween them. Last summer,howev
er, the mother visited Europe, and
was absent a number of months.—
In her absence the brother and sis
ter, who did not dream that their
consanguinity extended beyond the
relationship of cousins, agreed to
get married and to give the girl’s
mother a surprise upon her return
by receiving her into their own
home and by welcoming her as
their perpetual guest.
Some weeks ago the mother re
turned, and when she went to the
house of her daughter she found
her two children living there as
husband and wife. She then told
her astonished children the story of
their lives, and when they realized
what they had done they at once
separated, and, it is said, have not
seen each other since, and will
probably never meet again.
The referee has reported in favor
of annulling the marriage on the
ground of consanguinity, and Jus
tice Neilson is said to have signed
the necessarv decree.
Do you ask what will educate
your son ? Your example will ed
ucate him; your conversation with
your friends ; the business he sees
your transact; the likings and dis
likings he sees you express, these
will educate him. The society
you live in will educate him ; your
domestic circle will educate him;
above all your situation in life,
your home, your table, will educate
him. It is not in your power to
withdraw from him the continual
influence of these things except
you were to withdraw yourself
from them also. Education goes
on, at every instance of time ; you
can neither stop it, nor turn its
course. What these have a tenden
cy to make your child, that he will
be.

Repiililuaii Centralization.
Several Republican journals pro
fess to be amused by the word
“centralization’’ as used in the Cin
cinnati platform, and express curi
osity with regard to its meaning.
They can find illustration of the
meaning which Democrats attach
to the word in the letter of accep
tance written by their own Presi
dential candidate, who not only
uses the the word several
times, but whenever employing
“United States” as a nominative
folllows it with a singular verb.
Here is an extract :
“They [the Republicans] insist
that the United States is a nation
with ample power of self-preserva
tion ; that its Constituion and the
laws made in pursuance thereof are
the supreme law of the land ; that
the right of the nation to determine
the method by which its own legis
lature shall be created cannot be
surrendered without abdicating one
of the fundamental powers of gov
ernment.”
Referring to the “nation” he
adds this reference as to applying
“any portion of “the revenues of
the nation, or of the “States, to the
support of sectarian schools.”
In connection with this use of
words let us refer to the language
which is employed in the Constitu
tion of the United States. Article
1, section 9, recites :
“No title of nobility shall be
granted by the United States, and
no person holding any office of prof
fit under “them” shall without the
consent of the Congress accept of
any present, emolument, office or
title of any kind whateyer from any
king, prince or foreign state.”
Article 3, section 3 recites:
“Treason against the United
States shall consist onlv in levying
war against ‘them’ or adhering to
‘their’ enemies.”
The thirteenth amendment,
which was drawn before
the doctrines of centralization
had advanced to their extreme con
sequence, reads :
“Neither slavery nor involuntary
servitude * * * shall exist within
the Unite.l States or any place
subject to “their” jurisdiction.”
Nowhere in the Constitution
is there the slightest authority for
terming the United States a nation
in the sense in which France of
Russia is a nation, of which the
subdivisions are mere creations of
the central power, made for con
venience of administration. ‘‘'Cen
tralization” is the process which
tends to convert the United States
into such a natiou, and the inde
structible units which compose it in
to divisions of no more importance
than the departments of France
or the administrative districts of
Russia. It tends to assume for
the United States, through what
Gen. Garfield calls ‘‘its Congress,”
the powers which have hitherto been
exercised by the States, and which
the Constitution expressly reserves
to the State or the people. Gen.
Garfield’s letter perfectly illus
trates this view in the extract
which we have given in regard to
“applying any portion of the
revenues of the nation to the sup
port of sectarian schools.” Un
der the Constitution the United
States Government has no possible
jurisdiction over schools, except
perhaps for Indians in Territories
or for military or naval cadets. —•
Within the past fifteen years we
have seen Congress incorporating
loan companies, life insurance com
panies, health associations and gen
erally meddling with financial and
social questions. Finally we have
seen the United States—or, as
General Garfield ought.in consisten
cy to call it, the “United State”—
Supreme Court uphold Congress
in legislating upon criminal pro
cedure to be applied, within the terri
tory of States and within the juris
diction of States, to citizens who
the peace towards the
officers of the United States.—
The framers of the Cincinnati
platform merely embodied in it by
the the word “centralization” the
name which the Democrats every
where ascribe to this tendency of
the Republican party to destroy
the rights of the States and their
independence in all things not ex
pressly delegated by the Constitu
tion to the Federal power
to build up not a Union hut a
nation clothed with legislative
powers. A Democratic Congress
has alone protected the people of
this country from the practical ob
literation of State lines and the
assumption of all State powers.
President Garfield and a Republi
can Congress will complete the work
which Thaddeus Stevens began—-
and, if such a rule were possible,
there would be no doubt after four
years of it what is meant by cen
tralization.
It is one of the most discreditable
signs of the times that men who
pretend to discuss public affairs
and who imagine themselves to
know something about the Govern
ment of the United States should
either he ignorant or effect to be
ignorant what the Democratic Con
vention meant when it protested
against “centralization.”
Wli> the Eavv is Uncertain.
Language is an imperfect instru
ment for the expression of ideas.—
Not a few of its forms are ambig
uous ; that is, they speak ill two
ways. Reader and hearer are left
in Isaac’s perplexity. The voice is
that of Jacob, the hand is that of
Esau,
Many of the terms of language
are equivocal, They have two
meanings, so that the reader is in
doubt as to the mind or intention
of the writer.
Those who draft statutes know
how difficult it is to frame a law
which shall be free from ambigu
ous expressions or equivocal terms.
J udge Story once told a personal
incident which illustrates this diti
culty ?
He was employed by Congress
to draft an act. So important was
it that he spent six months in try
ing to perfect the phraseology. His
purpose was to make the statute so
clear that the most astute lawyer
should not be able to cast the shad
ow of a doubt upon its meaning.
The draft proving satisfactory to
the lawyers ‘in Congress, became a
law. In less than a year, a suit
involving the interpretation of this
very law, came before the court
over which Justice Story presided.
Having heard the arguments of the
able attorneys, the J udge confessed
that he was unable to decide upon
the meaning of a statute which he
himself had framed.
He, of course, knew what he had
meant to put into the law. But
the criticisms of the two lawyers
showed him that he had used such
ambiguous expressions that it was
doubtful if he had said what he
meant to have said.
Why an Old Texan Made Hi* Will.
One day last month when trade
was dull a grocer clerk procured a
piece of sale leather from a shoe
maker, painted it black, and laid it
aside for future use. Within a few
days an old chap from back in the
country came in and inquired for a
plug of chewing tobacco. The
piece of sole leather was tied up,
paid for, and the purchaser started
for home. At the end of the sixth
day he returned, looking downcast
and dejected, and, walking into the
store, he inquired for the clerk.—
“’Member that terhaeker I got hero
the other day ?” “Yes, sir.” “Well,
was that anew brand ?” “T es.”
“Regular plug terbacker was it
“Well, then, it’s me. It’s right
here in my jaws,” sadly replied the
old man. “I knowed I was getting
purty old, hut I was alius handy at
biting plug. I never seed a plug
afore this one that I couldn’t tear
to pieces at a chaw. 1 sot my teeth
on this one, and bit and pulled ani
twisted like a dog at a root, and I’ve
kept biting and puliiug for six
days, and thar she am now, the
s/me as the day you sold her to
me.” “Seems to be a good plug,”
remarked the clerk, as he smelt of
the counterfeit. “She’s all right;
it’s me that’s failing,” exclaimed
the old man. “Pass me out some
fine cut, and I’ll go home and deed
the farm to the boys, and get ready
for the grave.” —[Fort Worth Ad

A poor Irish woman went to a
venerable priest in Boston the other
day, says the Pilot, and asked him
to forward to Ireland her help for
the famine sufferers. “How much
can you spare P asked tiie priest.
“I have 8100 saved,” she said, “and
can spare that.” The priest rea
soned with her, saying to her that her
gift was too great for her means ;
but she was firm in her purpose.—
It would do her good to know that
&he had helped. She could rest
happier thinking of the poor fami
lies she had saved from hunger and
death. The? priest received her
money with moistened eyes, “Now, j
what is your name ?” he asked,
“that I may have it published,”—
“My name ?” said the brave soul,'
counting over her money ; “don’t
mind that, sir. Just send them the
help—and ’ God will know my '
name,”
At the late commencement of
the University of Georgia, the bac
calaureate sermon was preached by
President A. J? Battle of Mercer
University. The following synop
sis of it is taken from the Athens
correspondence of the Savannah
News. The text was, “So God cre
ated man in His own image
After referring to the fact, that
creation was still a problem that
engaged and perplexed the world,
he proceeded to describe what it
was —the earth and all its fullness,
and man and the animal kingdom.
Did it all come by chance, or was
it the offspring of a great created
mind. Whence came man and the !
other animals for whom earth and
its works was created ?
Human reason would have us be
lieve that the creation was the re
sult of chance, but the Bible tells
as God created the heavens and the
earth, and then made man in His
own image. Not to cross swords
with scientists, the speaker said he
would discuss the subject simply
from a Christian standpoint—that
there is a God, and that His in
spired Word is truth. lie proceed
ed to divide his discourse into two
parts:
First, Whence came man and the
earth he inhabited ? Second, The
creation of man in the image of
God. Another division will give a
clearer idea of this aide discourse :
'First, traces of God’s image in
man; Second, the Image blurred by
sin; Third, the final restoration of
the original purity of the image
through Christ’s atoning blood.—
Man is God like, not divine. He
is an image—a reflection of God—
a faint image at creation of bis
Maker. As God is not material,
man on earth can only resemble
Him in his spiritual nature.
Rev. Dr. Battle clearly and fore- j
ibly defined man’s superiority to i
all other animals, his intellectual I
endowments, his creattve and in- i
ventive faculties, his affections and j
his powers. The creative in God j
is seen in the creative of the poet, ;
the painter, the sculptor and the j
architect. Goodness is God and ;
God is goodness. Greatness with- j
out goodness is dangerous and of- i
ten destructive. Goodness is great- j
ness —is the highest manhood, be- j
cause it is the highest Godhead.— |
This portion of the sermon was
sublimely eloquent and forcible,
showing that he that ruleth his own
spirit is greater than he that taketh
a city. Duty, as exampled by Gen
eral Bee and others, was beautiful
ly described.
The marring of God’s image in
man by his sin was illustrated by
numerous striking cases of moral
deformity and vicious conduct. In
this connection the speaker address
ed hirnself very earnestly and point
edly to the students present, and
endeavored to show them how easi
ly the best and purest young men
can be transformed by sin to out
casts and criminals. God’s image
in man can only be kept from ruin
by constant prayer, necessary watch
fulness and zealous effort to secure
more perfect holiness. But, thanks
to God, when that image is lost and
blurred, there is a restoration to be
found in the salvation of Christ.—
Not only a spiritual restoration,
but finally a physical restoration —
we shall be like our Savior in the
resurrection. Such is an imperfect
| outline of an hour’s discourse by
one of our. ablest and most pleasant
speakers. It is imperfect, yet will
give a faint idea of one of the best
sermons ever preached at a Univer
sity com men cement. ,
Kindness begets love, sympathy,
! friendship, happiness. It is the
golden chain in the web of life.
I.auditing >ff a Duel.
“Speaking of the Cash-Shannon
duel," said the exchange fiend, put
ting his feet in the waste basket,
“we need a few men like Judge
t)ooly. He laughed out of duels
with an audaeious wit that compell
ed even the admiration of his cme
niies. You remember •he said,
when they threatened that if lie
didn't fight his name would fill the
columns of a newspaper, that he
had rather fill ten newspapers than
one cofiin. Once he went on the
field with a man who had St. Vitus
dance. His opponent was standing
at his post, his whole frame jerking
nervously from his malady. Dooly,
in the soberest manner, left his
post and cutting a forked stick,
stuck it in the ground in front of
his opponent.
“What does that mean ?" asked
his opponent,
“Why,’ says Dooly, ‘I want you
to rest your pistol in that fork, so
that you can steady your aim. If
you shoot at me with your hand
shaking so, you’ll pepper me full
of holes at the first fire!”
“Then there was a laugh all
around, and the duel was put off,
without a day.”

Sometimes, when I look back
over my life, says Burdette, lam
amazed to see how the pages of its
record are dotted with hair-breadth
escapes. I escaped the dangers
and hardships of the Revolutionary
war by waiting until the war had
been over about sixty years
before I got born. When the
Brooklyn theatre burned I was
in Burlington. When the yellow
fever broke out in New Orleans I
was in Minnesota and immediately
skipped out for Canada, When I
was a boy at school one day all the
boys in school were flogged all
round for robbing an apple orchard,
but the Hogging didn’t do a bit of
good, for every beggar of them had
the cholera-morbus all that ni&lit,
just the same. And I? I was at
tending another school, twenty
three miles distant. When all of
my brothers and sisters were down
with the scarlet fever, I was down
South in the army, and when I !
read the letters from home I laugh- J
ed aloud to, think of my great good
fortune, and that I would only have
to be shot at once or twice a week
instead of having to take medicine
three times a day. When a man
comes to the office with a little bill,
nine times out of ten fam out.—
And if, by some astonishing blun
der, lam in, then, indeed, I am
more unfortunate, but the man is
in no better luck than before.
The Galveston News says that as
an illustration of the Texas idea of
real heroism : Quite a number of
darkies, young and old were fish
ing down on Khun’s wharf, when
a boy about 12 fell off, and would
have met a watery grave had it not
been for the energy and presence
of mind c f old Uncle Mose. Af
ter the boy was safely landed a by
stander took occasion to praise old
Mose for the heroism he had dis
played. “Is the boy you son?”
asked the sympathatic spectator.—
“No, boss, but he might, as well
a been ;he had all de bait in his
pocket.”
