HOOD, ATTORNEY AT LAW, AN DE It' !>1V, - - S. ?. Feb 5, IS. 81 Sjtl STATE XAWS ARD DIVORCE. The Various Ground on which It Is Grant? ed. Chicago Herald. Since it is impossible in many States to procure divorces except for very grave reasons, it becomes necessary for those who can no longer live together to seek some Steles where the least amount of time and the slightest causes will gain the desired decree. All the States and Ter? ritories except Georgia, Louisiana and Delaware specify the necessary length of time duriog which the plaintiff must have lived in the SUate in order to be able to bring an action for divorce. This period varieB from ninety days for Da? kota to five -years for Massachusetts. Time in these days often means a great deal of money, and that is why the Da? kota divorces occupy so much attention at present, and it is solely for this .rea? son that she has the advantage over a number of other States and Territories. A six months' residence will entitle the plaintiff to sue for a divorce in Ari? zona, California, Idaho, Nebraska, Ne? vada, New Mexico, Texas and Wyoming. A large number of States fix the term, at one year.^ TheT)est of-these are Colo? rado, Illinois, Kansas, Missouri, Mon? tana, Oregon, Rhode Island, Washiogton and Wisconsin. Many of the States make the threat that the decree shall be invalid if the plaintiff removes there simply for, the purpose of getting a di? vorce, but the State pays no further at? tention to him after the decree unless there is a vituperative defendant to fol? low him up. Even then it is difficult to get positive proof that, he or she went to a certain State for the sole purpose of obtaining a divorce, since so many causes are constantly coming up ? which lead to. a change of mind. The successful plaintiff may move back because he could not dispose of his Eastern businesses he fancied, or the enterprise for which he left his native State may have failed to materialize^ or parents may be sick and send for him tb return. A fertile mind might be impelled to come back for a myriad of excellent reasons. When the plaintiff has selected the locality which suits him best he must not forgot to take with him sufficient proof *of his allega? tions to entitle him to a ? divorce under the laws of that particnlar State. In Dakota the following reasons are deemed sufficient grounds, for divorce: martial infidelity, which will secure ab? solute divorce in every State and Terri? tory except South Carolina, where di? vorce is not allowed for any reason; ex? cessive cruelty, willfdr. desertion and neglect and for habitual intemperance. The glorious climate of California is ex? cellent alike for the body and for divorce. Absolute separation is granted there for one year's willful desertion, neglect, and for habitual intemperance. Extreme cruelty is also a cause. The Courte of Arizona grant a divorce for t>ix month's intentional abandonment, for cruel treat? ment, habitual intemperance and neglect on the part of the husband to provide the necessaries of life for his wife. In Idaho a plaintiff may secure a divorce for ex? treme cruelty, desertion neglect and in? temperance, continuing for one year. In Nebraska the sufficient causes for judi? cial separation are desertion for two years, habitual drunkenness, extreme cruelty and failure to provide for wife. Nevada severs the marriage tie for one year's desertion, for gross drunkenness, if contracted si n ce marriage, for extreme cruelty and for a years neglect on the part of the husbaod to provide for bis wife. New Mexico dissolves the mar riage partnership for cruel treatment, abandonment, habitual drunkenness, and husbands failure to provide. The Courts of Texas give a divorce for such ill treat? ment as renders married life unbearable I and for three year's desertion. The laws \ of Wyoming declare a severance of the ! conjugal relation for one year's willful desertion, for extreme cruelty, habitual drankenness, husband's neglect to provide for one year and for any treatment by the one which renders the life of the pth I er intolerable. The above-mentioned States and Ter? ritories exhaust the list of those allowing a plaintiff to commence action after a six month's-residence. Of course when plaintiffs remove to a distant State they always want an absolute divorce, uot a limited one, which is a separation from bed and board only. It is well to note that Arizona, California, id a ho, Nevada, New Mexico, Texas and Wyoming never grant a limited divorce. Among the States requiring one year's residence on the part of the pi in tiff are Washington, Colorado, Montana, Oregon, Illinois, Kansas, Missouri, Wisconsin and Rhode Island. Of these, Washington has been regarded as the banner State for the sensible view her Courts take of divorce. Sufficient causes are cruel treatment, personal iniquities, habitual drunkenness, refusal to provide,- one j year's abandonment, or any other cause seeming sufficient to the Court, and when the court is satisfied the parties can no longer live together. Colorado and Montana both grant di? vorces for one year's drunkenne?ss or de? sertion and extreme cruelty. The causes in Oregon are cruel and inhuman treat? ment, personal indignities rendering life a burden, and gross drunkenness con? tracted since marriage. In Illinois it is 1 necessary for the plaintiff to show the existence of extreme and repeated cruel? ty, two year's desertion or habii.ua! drun? kenness for a like period of time. The laws of Kansas will give a divorce for habitual drunkenness, one year's aban? donment, extreme cruelty, fraud in tbe marriage, contract and gross .neglect of duty. Missouri will grant separation for indignities rendering the life of the other intolerable, and for a year's deser? tion or drunkenness. Wisconsin has excellent laws, for they dissolve the bands of matrimony not only for a year's desertion or drunkenness and cruel and inhuman treatment, but also when the husband and viife have lived apart vol? untarily for the space of five years. The statutes of Rhode Island call for five year's desertion, until the Court decides that a shorter time will answer. Habit? ual drunkenness, extreme cruelty and re? fusal to provide will also annul the mar? riage contract in the Courts. The Government has recently made out some statistics which show that Connecticut has about 11 marriages to 1 divorce; Massachusetts, 30; Ohio, 201 Rhode Island, 11; Vermont;, 16 ; New Hampshire, 10 ; Maryland, 62; Kansas, 17; Wisconsin, 21. It is impossible to compute the ratio for the banner divorce States, owing to the fact that the re? cord of marriageB was imperfect. It is instructed to compare tbe?e rig area with those of various kingdoms in the Old World. Belgium averaged 183 marriages to 1 divorce; France, from 138 marriages to 46; England, 718. In some rears Catholic Ireland averages over 20,000 marriages to 1 divorce; Berlin, in 1885, had 19 marriages to 1 di? vorce, while Stockholm for the same year had 34 to 1. In 1885 there were 470 marriages in Russia to 1 divorce; in Switzerland, 22 ; in Belgium, 138; in Prussia, 59. Italy grants her wedded, sufferers no absolute divorce.. The Government "Report on* Marriage and Divorce" gives many curious cauues as valid. The following cases where di ?vorce has been granted the wife is quo? ted verbatim, the original numbers being preserved: 7. Defendant does not speak to plain? tiff for months at a time, thereby making life a burden. ? ? 13. Defendant got drunk day after tbe marriage, causing this plaintiff to con? ceive a. violent disguet for him. Divorce proceedings begun on day after marri? age. 19. Plaintiff says that when she was sick in bed the defendant^ for the sole pur? pose of harausing her, said he meant to suicide, and did then and there drink a bottle of paregoric, which said action of defendant sorely grieved plaintiff in body and mind. 23. When defendant, suffers financial loss He lays it to plaintiff, and ceasures her in bitter terms, He treats her as a child, claiming the right to do so becau. of bis age and sex. 27. Plaintiff says she ,, is subject to sick headaches that grows worse when she smells tobacco. Defendant uses to? bacco and thu3 aggravates ber head? aches. 31. Plaintiff says immediately after marriage defendant began importuning her to deed him her property, which said importunity caused Plaintiff mental an? guish. 34. Defendant threatened to knock plaintiff "cold as a wedge," whereupon'he did clutch her by the throat and pound ber bead against tbe wall. * US. Defendant quotes verseB from New Testament about wives obey their hus? bands. He has even.threatened to mash plaintiff, and drew back his hand to do . it. In the decree granting this divorce appear the following: I find that when plaintiff was sick and unable to work defendant told her the Lord command? ed her-to work; that be was also in the habit of frequently quoting Scriptural passages in order to show her she was to be obedient to her husband. 46. Defendant cut. off my bangs by force. 56, Defendant was cruel in this: He caused a letter to. be written* saying he was dead, .Plaintiff ordered a mourn? ing garb and mourned a long time, but at last learned that tbe letter was a fraud and that the defendant was not dead. 68. While defendant was confined to his bed by lameness he threw cups and saucers at Plaintiff and threatened to run his crutch down her throat. In these cases the husband got his di? vorce : Defendant violently upbraided plain? tiff and said to him : "You are no man at all," thus causing him mental .suffering and anguish. 5. HusbantHays: "My wife refused to keep my clothing in repair ; she refused fo^cook and never sewed on my buttons." A witness testified that he had seen the plaintiff with only one button on his vest. Plaintiff further alleged that his wife would not let him go to see fires at night; that if he went she would keep him awake until 3 o'clock quarrelling. 6. Defendant pulled out of bed by his whiskers. 12. Defendant took all the covering off the bed, leaving the plaintiff to sliver until morning. On one occasion she jumped on him with her knees and ran a knitting needle four inches into his arm. 14. Defendant struck plaintiff a violent blow with her bustle. 21. Husband sayB: "My wife would not walk with me on Sundays. Once in a tantrum she heaved a teapot at me. She hit me on the side of my head be? cause I refused to be worked into a pas? sion. Once she pulled out quite a quan? tity of my hair." Among the papers wsb a to ft of hair marked "Exhibit A." 30. During the last year the defendant has struck plaintiff with pokers, flatirons, and other hard substances. In summing up tbe divorce statistics for all the States, the report says: "Our Courts, instead of being careless in the matter of granting decreess, weigh well the causes alleged, and do not grant de? crees unless the allegations of tbe libel lants are fully sustained. In about 30 per cent of the cases of petition a decree has been denied." The Judges are, however^ compelled to render their decisions in accordance with law, where the statutes lay down a slight cause as sufficient. Whenever that is proved to exist the Judge must grant the divorce. ? All traces of mud spots should be removed from black goods by rubbing with a raw potato cut in half. ?

Robinson, of New York, was asked to tell a story. He replied that he had never told a story in his life?his molher had taught him not to?but that he would take tbe opportunity to complain of a great outrage. He desired to be under? stood that though he had compiled sever? al hymn books, he had done some other things in his life, though people strange* ly forgot it. "Why," said he, "even my good friend, Dr. William M. Taylor, who Bpeaks partly broad Scotch, insulted me before a congregation the other night. He said, 'I take great pleasure in intro? ducing Rev. Dr. Robinson, the As-aph of America.' "Now," said Dr. Robinson, "il '- ?? what I want to know, if I am the A-Hifh a'ho h whe other l:a!f" Dauntless to the End. Gen. John S. Mosby has written an interesting letter, in which he tells of several interviews with Gen. Robert E. Lee. When I waB a private, he says, I met Gen. Lee but once. Shortly after the battles around Richmond, when he defeated McClellan, I was captured by a raiding party of Northern cavalry and taken to Washington, where I was kept ten days in the old Capitol prison, and then exchanged. During ray imprisonment I kept my eyes open and obtained some valuable information. A'- oou as we landed at the point of e. :ange on James River, I started to walk twelve miles under an August sun to carry the information of the movement to Gen. Lee. I knew it would result in a 'corresponding move? ment on our part. I shall never forg'et the awe and op? pression I felt when I came into the presence of the great commander. His benevolent look and kind manner soon put me at ease. He immediately started a courier with the news to Stonewall Jackson The resuk was Jackson's victory at Ce? dar Mountain, where he defeated Pope before reinforcements from Burnside reached him. STORY OF THE LEMOXS. After exhausting my budget of infor? mation Gen. Lee asked me how I was captured. I told him that I was at Bea? ver Dam Station waiting for the train when a regiment of Northern cavalry [Harris's Light] gobbled me up. He aBked: "Couldn't you run away?" I answered: "Yes, but not so fast as a horse." I brought with me from Fort Monroe a haversack full of lemons. Such a lux? ury as lemonade was then unknown in ?Richmond. As I rose to leave I took out half a dozen lemons and laid them on the table. He said in the gentlest way that I had better give them to the sick and wounded in the hospitals, that he didn't need them. But I wont-away and left them. I have no doubt that some wounded soldier got them. I was a common soldier in my shirt sleeves, covered with dust, without any political influence behind me and no prospect of promotion. My-feet were sore and blistered from the long walk through the buu, yet I felt that the priv lege of the few minutes' interview with the great General, who then filled the world with his fame, was ample compen? sation for all the toils and dangers of war that I bad undergone. It was certainly a distinction to which I had not permit? ted myself to aspire. AFTER GETTYSBURG. We did not meet again until after Get? tysburg, in his tent on the Rapidan. In the meantime I had become an officer, and he knew me by reputation. I doubt, however, whether he ever knew that the soldier who gave him the lemons was the same person whom he saw then. Although the weight of the Southern Confederacy then rested on his shoulders he did not seem to be oppressed by it or discouraged by defeat. His spirit waB as bold as it was on the day that he drove McClellan out of his entrenchments be? fore Richmond. My command was then jn embryo, yet he seemed to take as much interest in our petty forages as in the op? eration of our army corps. A thorough soldier by training, familiar with war in its theory and details, yet there was no man in the Southern army less a marti? net and fonder of adventure than Gen. Robert E. Lee. In February, 1865, I went to Bee h;m at his headquarters, near Petersburg. His army was then reduced to -a'skele ton, but his spirit was as combative as ever. Although he knew that the end 'was near, his manner and conversation did not indicate it. He was just as bold and as aggressive in temper as on the day that he routed Pope at Bull Run. Look? ing over in the direction of Grant's lines, he said : "We could whip those people now if we could only get at them/' refer? ring to their being under ground. .WORN AND HAGGARD, In the spring of 1870, a few months before his death, I was at the Exchange Hotel, in Richmond, when Gen. Lee ar? rived there from Lexington. He had been advised to take a trip south for the benefit of his health. He looked worn and haggard, and it was ha; to realize that he was the fierce warrior that had so often wielded the thunderbolts of battle. I went to hi3 room and we had a long talk. I had met him in public after the war, but this was the only time we were alone. The war still threw its shadows 1 around us, and while we talked of the present and the future we were thinking of the past. I felt oppressed, almost overwhelmed, by the great memories which his presence recalled. He was no longer ray commander, yet his word even then would have been law to me. Soon after leaving his room I met Gen. Pickett. I told Pickett that I had just left Gen. Lee, and that he looked like a dying man. There had been an es? trangement between them. Pickett said that he would call and pay bis respects to Gen.^Lee if I would go with him, but that he did not want to be alone with him. So I returned with Pickett. The interview lasted only a few minutes. The conversation was formal, with no refer? ence to the cause of their difference. I do not think they ever met again. In a few months the great soldier join? ed the ehadowy host that had crossed the river before him. "Fate denied him victory, but blensed him with a glorious immortality." ?

Tho detective was obliging, and upon reaching tho room tho young man showed him papers lying in tho bottom of a largo sample* trunk.

Ono of tho most astonishing of all tho promises of electricity is now being dis? cussed by tho scientific journals, says tho Boston Journal. Itis'tbatofextractinggold from the sea. It has long been known to scientists that every ton of sea water con? tains half a grain of gold and a grain and a half of silver. But science has always found it impossiblo to deviso any practi? cal method of gaining possession of these precious bits of metal. But now comes electricity with its marvelous power of precipitation. It is proposed to stretch a long series of iron plates under the water I and by running electric currents through theso plates to precipitate tho gold upon them. It is estimated that at tho rate of half a grain of gold and a grain and a half of silver to each ton of sea water tho en tiro seas and oceans of tho world contain 21,595,000,000,000 tons of gold and 04,785, 000,000,000 tons of silver. Now* if these metals can be liberated by electricity and precipitated, what a revolution it would make in tho world's production. What a revolution all this might make in the world's currency basis does not concern science. Nevertheless, this new appli? cation of electricity is decidedly interest? ing as showing how discovories ip sci? ence may operate at any limo to change tho whole face of things in social and economic affairs.

LITERALLY WASHED WITH BLOOD. Police do their Duty without respect to Persons. The Wall Still Covered with Bloody Gore. 1HE fight was on South Main Street at the Bazaar and Ten Cent Stores of C. S. Minor & Co. It was an attack of the combined forces of seven other merchants on the famous C. S. Minor. They fought in defence of their prices, which they claimed had been crushed out of all respectability by the said C. S. Minor, and they fought with desperation to restore the former prices, but down they go in the dead of the fight, and their blood on our Store-front only is left to tell a pitiful tale of woo. Stranger than Strange. One man claimed that we had reduced the price of Pants to 25c. and 50c. per pair?less than cost to make. We dou't care. Another claimed that we sell the best quality Mason Fruit Jar at leas than he can buy the second quality. We don't care for that, either. Another said our 10c. Hosiery was the same that he had to Bell at 15c, or two pair for 25c, aud that we sold bis 15c Suspenders at 10c, and his 25c Suspenders at V0C. Well, what of that ? Another manjbelieves that we are selling his 40c Cups and Saucers for 30c, and h\ J5c Plates at 25c. Why should we care ? * A certain millinery man thinks we have knocked him out of more than a hundred sales. We don't have to pay a milliner, and he don't believe we pay for our goods. What concern is that of his ? Another man claims that we sell Tobacco at a starvation price. Has he any right to object ? These are some of the complaints made against us. We ask you whose busi? ness is it, if not that of our customers and ourselves? Can't we make such figures as we see fit without being hounded down and forced to fight for our lives ? We'll fight to the death?we'll put their blood on our walls and their scalps on our doors, and their customers in possession of undoubted bargains. Say, would you wash that blood off the. wall, or would you let it stay as a warning ? Yours for Spot Cash, C. S. MINOR, THE BAZAAR and the 10c STORE. JES3E R. SMITH. A. A. BRISTOW.

SMITH & BRISTOW, Clothiers and Furnishers, Greenville, S. C. A LONG FELT WANT! AFTER FIVE YEARS of patient and persevering endeavor I have at last succeeded in getting control of the best hand-made copper dfstilled Whiskey in the world. This Whiskey has been tested by the United 8tates Chemist at Washington, D. C, and declared to be perfectly free from all poisonous chemicals generally present in the dis? tillation of all Whiskeys commonly used in the United States. It is en|irely free from the maddening effect, the'nauseating of the stomach, and the immediate intoxication that is always the result of tte use of an inferior article. It is pleasant to the palate, has not that burning effect so common id other goods. It is strengthening, invigora? ting and mild, giving the bouyancy of youth to old age. It is stimulating to the over? worked ard feeble ; in cases of consumption, heavy colds, weak lungs, debility and loss of appetite it is quickly recommended by the leading doctors and hospital physicians in the United States, and no sick room should be without it AU enfeebl' d, weak, old and infirm should take it daily as directed, and thereby regain that bouana> and strength that countless thousands stand so much in need of. This Celebrated Whiskey is sold as cheap as a very common article, and can be found forsale at JOHN O'DONNELL'S PALACE SALOON. SOUTH MAIN STREET, ANDERSON, S. C In addition to the above I have the different vintages of Europe, including the cele? brated bands of Wines from Germany, France, Italy, Spain and Portugal. Also, Scotch and Irish Whiskeys, Dublin and London Porter, Bass Air, and all other Liquors that go to complete a First Class Saloon. JOHN O'DONNEJLJL.
