Most of the Liniments sold have fallen j
into ill repute with owners of stock, from
the fact that they Iweome sticky, mouldy,
rancid, and when a little old irritate the j
skin without benefiting. The Mtigie Ar
liica Liniment is a beautiful ruby-colored
■ flitid, which is a!way limpid and never
(spoils. It is powerfully penetrating, and
there is no disease of stock that can be
reached by extended means that the
Magic Arnica Liniment n'ill not cure, j

The Law of Matrimony.
The Briuckley divorce case, which lias
attracted general attention, brought the
law regarding matrimony again promi
nently into public notice. The statutes of
all the Stab's are literally agreed in de
claring, us do the revised statutes of New
York, that marriage is a civil contract, but
the courts in the different States are siu
, gularly at variance as to the evidence re
! ([Hired to prove such contract of marriage
j when [mt in question on a trial. This eon
j only be accounted for on the ground that
■ some judges cannot relieve themselves of
antiquated notions about the special sanct
ity of a judicial or ecclesiastical soletnui
i nation of marriage. 1 f the statute Ik>
1 right that the union of man and wife is \
but a civil contract, then it follows, as a
matter of course, that the rules of evi
dence- enforced as to all other contracts are j
applicable also to the contract of marriage.
This includes that where written evidence
exists—a marriage certificate, for instance
—it must be pm, I ras'd or, its twin-produc
tion or loss sufficiently explained, when
oral testimony may he received, and such
oral testimony is as conclusive as to the j
existence of the contract as the Same kind
of evidence in till other cases. When a I
marriage, even by verbid agreement only, ■
is consummated, it takes the form of an
executed contract, mid is therefore exempt
from the statute of frauds, w hich requires I
certain contracts, which arc to he executed
only in the future, to be in writing. Per- |
haps an engagement to marry in a year or
more from the time of the engagement !
tnay come under this restriction, and if the
point were made Mint, the statute of frauds
applies, many ti breach of promise case I
would fail at the start. Hut there are |
tome peculiarities about marriage, consid
ered merely as a civil contract. The par- j
ties to any common agreement can aban- j
don it at will by mutual consent; yet that |
cannot bo done in the case of the marri
age contract. Again, tile rule of law re- j
garding any contract is, that upon its dis
solution the parties to it shall he placed in 1
the same position in which they were at*
the time of entering it. It seems an ab-■
surdity to suppose that, upon the dissoltt- j
tiun of the eoutract of marriage, the wife '
—perhaps the mother of many children— ;
could Jpe placed back exactly in the condi- j
tion m which she was before married. In j
these respects, therefore, tho contract of I
marriage is not subject to the general law !
uf contracts, and, consequently, cannot be !
deemed to be merely a contract, and noth- i
mg else, It will take some careful study j
to mature anew system of laws governing !
matrimony that shall bo just to all parties,
guard the rights of both Hexes, and yet
tally with the progressive and liberal ideas !
of the times.- -V. J r . Sumhiy Meycury . i

A Gkanoe CoNt’N'niirjT.—There is al
ready a little dissension among the Gran
gers. Home of “the embattled farmers”
want to know where a ll the money goes
which is paid into the grange treasuries.
There are 12,000 granges, it is urged in
existence, with an average of fifty mem
bers each, and $2,500,000, it id estimated,
have been paid in initiation fees and dues.
“What has become of all this cash ? Who
is enriching himself ly his gruugeship ?”
are questions which the curious are begin
ning to ask. It is not a point upon which
we can give any information. Porliaps
the estimates are too^lngh.— N. Y. Tri-,
bane.
A Remarkable ( 'ask.- -The New York
Tribune gives this as one of the current
bits of gossip in that city: “An American
gentleman of large wealth and a resident
of this city recently retired from bnsiness,
and after turning over to his wife his
estate, valued at $250,000, sailed for Eu
rope upon a pleasure trip. During his ab
sence his wife died, and under the laws of
the .State of New York, there being no
child as heir, the entire property goes [to
her father. The latter named person
failed in business some time since, with
debts amounting to S2BO,(MX), and this
entire vast property now goes to the
liquidation of the father-in-law’s debts.’’
The mistake in this case was that the wife
had not made a will after the property
■ had been put in her name giving it the
j required direction in case or her death.

President Atigeli of the Masschusetts
Society for the Prevention, etc., writes:
“I am represented as saying in the paper
! which I read before the American Social
j Science Convention, at New York, on
j Thursday that animals have neither
I thoughts nor language. Wliat I did say was
i that animals do have thoughts language
intelligence affection and grattitude and
| that if the beliefs of a majority of the human
j race including such eminent Christian
i theologians and sehollars as John Wesley,
Jeremy Taylor Coleridge, Lamartine and
Agassis are crtrrect they have also immor
: tality. Permit me to add, that there may
bo no mistake, that upon the latter point 1

j the hope that in some future life they
nlay be compensated for wrongs they stif-

The following story is told on the clerk
|of the court of one of our neighboring
| counties, Who was training a pet calf in
! the way he should go as an ox. The calf
! walked around very peaceably under one
i end of the yoke, while Mr. Clerk held up
! the other end, but in an unfortunate mo
ment the man conceived the idea of put
ting his own neck in the yoke, to let the
calf see how it would seem to work with a
1 partner. This frightened mister calf, and
elevating his tail and liis voice, he struck
a “dead ran’’ for tire tillage, -arid Mr.
Clerk went along, with liis head down and
his plug hat in his hand, straining every
nerve to keep up and crying at the top of
his voice—“ Here we come, d—-n our fool
souls, head us, somebody."
A shrewd wife, who has a forgetting
husband has adopted a method of jogging
his mentory, which is at once novel and
effectual. When she desires him to bring
her anything from the store, she makes
a cross on the back of liis hand with a
lead pencil. When he takes a drink at a
saloon, in extending his band for the glass
he invariably sees that mark, and remem
i hers his errand. Being thus reminded
thirty or forty times a day; it would be
! singular indeed if he forgot what was re
j qtrired of him.

IMPORTANT MEETING OF SOUTH
ERN COTTON EXCHANGES.
Sew York to be Cut.
- ' ■ t ' v SJC ¥ m • *. * •
A Southern correspondent of the Louis
ville ObiiriiT-jiiurnul has something to say
in reference to the proposed meeting of
cotton exchanges in Augusta on tho 10th
instaut, from which wo extract the follow
ing:
An important meeting of Southern cot
ton exchanges takes place in Augusta on
t in' 10th of J tine. It is expected Mint rep
i resentatives will be present from every
important market south of the Potomac.
One, if not the most important of the
questions that will come up for discussion
and determination, will be the breaking
up to a great extent of the present exist
ing relations with New Y’ork and the ship
ment of cotton in futnro direct to Europe.
It is argued, and with a great deal of
truth, that it is perfect nonsense to make
Southern cotton take a long detour
through New York, where it is tolled and
charged at a round rate, instead of ship
ping it direct to Liverpool and such other
manufacturing porta of entry; and why it
jis that the British do not send their buy
[ era and their ships direot to Southern
markets and get their cotton from first and
second hands, instead of New York and
third hands, is tin incomprehensible mys
tery. They can, of course, liny it in nil
tho South Atlantic and Gulf towns ns
cheap as the Now England speculator,
and from thence ship across the ocean,
getting rid of the middle men their
wharves, their ware-houses, their drays,
their rogues, and many others who make
their living. It is no advantage whatever
to ship by way of New York. On the
other hand, it is worth teu or fifteen dol
lars per bale more there than at Savannah,
and if the British manufacturer has any
other profit by going there for his sup
plies of the raw material than “the glory
of the thing,” I can’t see it. The differ
ence in freight between Savannah and
New York and Savannah aud Liverpool
does not amount to near as much tis the
difference in price.
Another important matter which will
come before tho convention of Southern
cotton buyers will be ft more perfect sys
tem of sterling exchange. This is always
Scarce iu the South, for the reason, I sup
pose, there is very little demand for it.
The planters of the South have long
since abandoned the custom of ranking di
rect shipments to any distant market
more especially to New York. The main
reason they had for doing so was the out
rageous impositions practiced npon them
by tho factors of that city. It became im
possible for them to sand their crops there
without being shamefully swindled by ev
ery man who touched them. They were
credited with a false number of bales, false
weights, false charges were made and al
most invariably a lying account of sales
was returned. The honest, sturdy old far
mer, away in the country, had no means
of redress, and indeed hud little power to
to detect the rogues. They could only
quit the rascally market, which they did
in a body, and sell to the iieiirest buyer at
homo.
Nor are the speculators and buyers upon
their own account faring much better than
the farmer. They are much sharper and
can the more readily and quickly detect
the cheats sought to be practiced on them,
and thence the New Yorkcrbas to be more
wary and accept cents instead of dollars.
So groat became the complaint all over the
South, more than one year ago, about the
dishonest practices of New York cotton fac
tors, that an effort was made to regain the
confidence, which was well nigh broken
down, by building cotton warehouses re
moved from the city proper, and, by tak
ing it direct from vessels, stop the plunder
of bale: around the wharf. But matters
have not been mended a great deal, and it
is proposed now by this forthcoming Con
vention of Exchanges to revolutionize the
whole business by establishing direct trade
with Europe.
Nebraska people have found pearls in
clams, and the coat-tails of dignified alder

A Pittsbnrg coroner makes no charge
when he sits on a young man who parted
his hair in the middle. He says that his
personal satisfaction in enough without the
fee.
A fish farmer in Hlinois gets seventy
five cents per pound for his trout; thus a
j small string of fish will bring as much as
| a sheep, and they required neither gruin,
hay nor stabling.
A little boy a few days ago undertook to
j see if he could lift himself by hanging on
a mule’s tail. He found out all about it,
and the doctors think the skin on liis
forehead Will grow tip, but will leave a
bad eenr.
