Tbe New York Tribune aaye; “There is now a greet dlsetmlou. In religtous circles, of the queen on whether clergymen should marry young. This appears to bo going on with ont any abatement.

Certain it Is, that the proportion of men who marry after attaining the age of tblriy-hve Is very rmall, and lbs chances lessen with each snocreding year.

Minister* are bnt hnmsn beings after all. and snbjaot to tbe same laws that govern the rest of mankind. But experience has dunouatraled that early marriages ere by far tbe happiest, as the parties become assimilated by association, and yield more readily to (hose peculiar idiosyncrasies of character, which most exist tn eaoh. We bare seen some couples who, after long years cf eon- noblal existence, aotnaUy grew to resemble each other In person. The venerated deeeased President of tho University of Georgia. Dr. Gburefc, and his exoellen*. wife, were striking Illustrations of this remark. It should be remembered, too. that those who many yotmg, have Ibe reasonable hops of sur viving to watch oyer and direct (be education of their offspring, and may he even permitted to eld them In their first stages upon life's jonmey, acd perhaps behMI *h*1r childrens’ ehlldrsn. Itseentv peculiarly desirable, slso.that the young paa'or should tak* onto himself n rib at the earliest moment, for his better half is almost os great a power (n the church as himself. She Is usually bead centre in tbe Sabbath school, sewing soo'ety, acd ladles' prsyer meeting, end takes the load In every benevolent enterprise. Indeed, wo have always oocsidornd here grlev- onsly Imposed upon sod wrongfully used sroman. Moray Is a divine attribute, and unrely the am basssdors of the Almighty, and their helpmeets, too, are entitled to some oherlty and considera tion at the bands of those they servo so faith fully. A minister 1 * wife loves hams ns well aa other people, and her ohlldren require alien- tion, and their gsneeuts mending. Bat how can aha dtnoharge bar family obligation*, when the publlo usurps so rauoh of her time ? Stilt, as all this inure* to the benefit of tbe congre gation, why object to the marriage of their pastor? Lastly, an early marriage removes all osnse for soandal and remark, let tbs minister walk never so prudently; and at tbe earns time gets rid of a prollfia sonroo of diaeord and jealousy among the fair daughters of the oommnnlty. AU want him, and but one eau secure him; so the sooner this bone of contention la removed, tbe better.

Tonr own paper—one of ex'enslve olrenlation and great irfiarnce In tho State—baa taken etroDg ground In Its favor, and In a leogthy editorial,, which baa been copied by most of the country piper* and favorably endorsed, you favor a State appropriation of $30,000 from our al ready Impoverished treasury to put It on its legs again. Tbs only reason you give why this ap propriation should bs mid i is, that the bnlid- fngs at Marietta were turned by Sberman, and that acme of the graduates, Harrison, Winn, Yon eg, and others, “held high positions under the Confederate banner, and illmdrated Georgia by their deeds, and wonnda and death, on many a well- fought field." ■*» If* tbe flr-t to a gord reaecn why the Btale should rebuild the iualitntion) then it 6hnald rebuild every private residence burnt by Gen- H.

Fscm the following from the New York World, It seems that the ne wipapers at the North, have their trouble* too, with the railroads.

The addition of 1 cent to tho cost of a dally paper would seem like a very email matter to have tny Influence on the enter prise of a community, but every publisher knomt what an effect il would have on tho cir culation of his paper, and we are amoeg these who believe the newspaper to be a necessity to an lntcllireut oommnnlty, and that (be free dr- eolation of onr great dailr journals la a country town adds vary msterlftily to iu piroeperity. especially If the town be wilhin ea*y access of the city. If the coat of carrying tha papers be cot enough to raiao Its price, It may be enough to deprive the baru-worklcg newsdealer, the publisher*’ »cl'-appointed bnt efficient agent, of a portion of his small profits, and has the same result on the c.rcr juen, by destroying his tfil- olency.

The Georgia Military Institute Is not enlltlod to tbe credit which the persons named deserve for “illnatra- rfrrg Georgia by ibeir deeds and wound? and death on many a well fought field." It was Ibeir Kouthern blood—their devotion to home, and their native Btate and their manhood. Many other Georgians, who never saw the inside of a military Institute, held equally aa high positions to those you r.r.n, •. and together with tens of thousands at noble privates and subordinate officer*, who did not know “right shoulder shift" from “order arms," when they first enlist ed. also “illustrated Georgia by theirdeeda and I wound? and deaths, os many a well fought field.” What nse have we now for trained soldiers? ' tr ‘ r than .rich training *» oar young men may receive by attaching themselves to volunteer military organizations now springing np all over the Stale? What good to to bo accom plished by It to compensate for tbe outlay you name? I confidently assert that not onto no prv.d will be aooomplished, bnt absolute injury. We want onr buys ednoated in order to fit them for the active duties of life. We da not want them to strut aronnd in a cadet ooat with brass buttons snd gold lace; to handle a musket and sind.v the rules and articles of war, bnt we want ''i •T".~vr. them !o be nsefn! and industrious citizens; to lesra them tbe monnalof the plow, tbe loom and the anvil. Common school edu cation is what wewanb nut “foes and feathers. If you appropriate $30 000 additional to the educational fond of tbe Btate, let it be eet apart las a perpetual fund, the interest of which shoald annually bs expended In giving a thorough course at the Btate University, to such yonug men os may exhibit a high order of talent In oar graded schools, whose perents sre unable to leear tbe expense of their college oonrae. Tbo? yon woold realize to the State In after year*, talents which are now rusting out for the want of means to develop them. If there are Georgia parents who have tbe means and desire to glvo their sons a military training snd education, let them send them off to *uch institutions os sro already established In Virginia, Kentucky acd 6l«ewhere, aud take as much pride as they desire In their fine ooat*, stripes snd brass buttons. It to nobody's busi ness bnt thatra. If they foot the bills them selves. I, for one, do not with lo be taxed to stert any more sneb nonsense and useless parade and show in Georgia, while to aid the talented and ambitions poor youth in reaching the top. most round In the University ladder, I am willing to be taxed roundly. And there are fens of thousands In Georgia who will say Amen to this noctlment. One man ednoated to till Ute soil, drive an engine, wield tho ham mer, tbe saw or jack-plane, to worth a thousand military cadets to Georgia now. My object in penning this article to (o awaken tbe thoughts and torn the attention of onr peo ple to the other side of the Military Institute question. I know that pnbllo sentiment to now slumbering, and that when awakened, it will not aonotlon this worse than useless proposed drain npon an already overdrawn treasury and tax-bnrdenel people. We most go back to first principles and edneate onr sons to be nssfnl rather than ornamental, and the sooner we aot upon this idea the better will It be for Geoec.ii. Rrlgliatn Voting's 17th Wife rad Her Knit lor Divorce. Editors Telegraph and Messenger: We have been much amused lately by the telsgraphlo re ports in reference to Mrs. Young No. 17, her secession from Brigham's bed and board, and her salt for damages, alimony and counsel fees. Tbe first question which presents itself to tho mind of an unsophisticated gentile lawyer is, ha* she any oase, with such merit In it as will enthorizs a recovery for damages, alimony or oounsel foes, or a dissolution of the bands which have bound her to the Moimon prophet? In order to maintain an action for dlvoroe under the laws o( the Slat es there mu3t have been a legal marriage, as wallas so oh ground? as authorize a dissolution of tho marriage rela tion. If no legal marriage, then there can be no divorce. If no d'voree can be decreed, then there can b» no judgment for alimony or car-set fees. Under tbe tows of any of tbe States, or of tbe United States, a second marriage by man or woman, with the first wife or husband living and nndtooreed, to bigamy; the mrniage nnll and void, and the offspring of tbe marriage illegitimate*. By this law then. No. 17 hei nn care in oomL If she brings her salt In the United States Court for the Territory of Utah, as the seventeenth wife of Brigham Young, she shows herself ont of cunt h‘. once, If she simply snes as his wife, aud proves a marriage and rests her oaae there, then he cm show that he had sixteen wives when be te;.k her, and thus she goes out for cause shown by the defendant. The terri torial law, providing for a plurality of wivas, yon msv be sure, does not allow divorce sails, alimony, damages or oounsel fees to disgruntled w.ves, so-called, when the; wish to dissolve the iniquitous relation. It there to a court to administer territorial law, with a Mormon judge, whioh. I suppose, would not be allowed—she could get no relief by bringing her caaa in that court. She ean get no relief in the courts cf the United States, and c r.?i quontto K acd ought to be, withont rem edy, becauio she to entitled to no consideration In any court in a civilized snd Christian coun try. If fhe escapes prosecution and tranlsh- msnt for her offense against the laws of deoency and morality, she ought to eongratnlate herself npon her escape, and retire from pnbllo notice.
