An exchange tells us that "thd ladies of Ironton, Mo., have united to discour age the practioe of smoking in ehuroh.'' They won't lot us smokein railroad Cars, nor in street cars, nor in private parlors,, nor in theaters, and now they watft to stop-us from smoking iu church. The thing is becoming really alarming. It is said that ah Indiana preacher dec'nrcd in a rocont sermon that, "iro woman who wears false hair is a fit person to sit in the house of the Lord." Hut as all the women in his congregation wore jute instead of false hair, they thought he was "going" for the women of the other church. A Bridgeport rnao who was 'driven in the night time by lire from his house, took his wife, who escaped with nothing but her night clothes, to her father's house and said : "Dad I married your daughter fifteen years ago, and I've brought her back." The old (naff thought shj.didu't dress so well ns she usi d.to. The "India rubber bustle" is again heard from. This time it was a Brook lyn young lady, who was thrown from hor carriage coinit*g down the hill from Prospect Parole. She. made uiuety -seven ?and a half bounce*, in all?, and was final ly rescued, by a hook ami ladder coin pnoy, from the top of a telegraph pole, where she had stuck in attempting to complete the ninety-eighth bouncq. An impulsive Connecticutyoung man pent his giil the piece of sheet music entitled. UI will meet you at the beau tiful ga'e." Her father saw tire piece whg^she opened the p.ic knge, and after , ehr^mtjg a bucketful of tar over his irate, quietly remarkel to his daughter, "He can wuit fur you if he want s to, but jfou won't either of ymi swbv^. oh- ikii g.?to . if tar will keep you off." Thomas Carl_ 1c him.--edf could- hardly f'c nnre bitter upon anything IJritMi than Mr. Buskin has been.when hosays, while moralizing on the thetuo that, lit is age has distinguished itself in tho ao quisition of the destructive and tho loss of the deobrativo art*, that Knglmd of to day will, in tho eyes of the future historian, be chiefly remarkable lor cov ering filass \riih pictures f!ic could not puintj and killing her factory women in the manufacture of cartridges with which she Would not fight. This seems highly impmildo. It. in related that a few evenings ago a way* farpr journeying along a country road Irl Connecticut, close to the baunln-y ?f Rhode Island, was overtaken by a severe thunder storm. The wind wrench'd his umbrella from his grasp and b'ow it into the adjoining State. In consequence uf this catastrophe the unfortunate j - ! iT ' 'i* i'll T traveller got soaked tinough, took thu nicumatiz and died, but, thanks to the umbrella, Bhode Island wasn't oven moistened. The New York .<//<rulti estimates that the amount, of actual-cash brought into this couutry by iu> migrant* ??vertigo? 100 to every immigrant, ami values -every immigrant as a laborer at.S 1,000 Consequently li/ estimates the meresole of material!wealth from the immigration of last-week alone, at the amu of SI7, 000,000. The IlrtaUl'n estimate is en tirely within the limits of reason: The .muscle, brain and treasure brough loour shores froin JOuropo are a ja-i/ool ine.-ti mublo- value. One .million of dollars is to bo spent for the purpose oPorccting 'indicators'' to mark the most important positions on the, battlefield of Gettysburg. Tho money would be better spent if it were given to the dismembered veterans who grind organs at our street corners?for a living. These ''indicators" can only Sorvu to keep alive memories which, the best wisdom of mankind has told us, should bo discouraged. Kvetl Pagan Borne passed*laws prohibiting all such public uicnprinls of her civil wars, lli.-tui^ will sufficiently preserve the story ol our soldier*' valor and sacrifices.

Since writing the foregoing article we have eopaulered with soaie care tha argunieut of tho Uiehniuii I l)i pith, .rhieh appears on o ir first p ige, as to the uneon--"titntiontilit)' of certain pro \ihi,ius of the bankrupt Luv. The points made by the Dispatch .1 mount awuply to thw; That the net Of Congress allowing hoi;cstead exemptions is uncous1 itntiou al for the reasons: lnt. THuVi* ovtnhlen tli?> dfceis'n M ol the \' irjjiniu* Cou^t of A'ppcHs, ami 2bT That it is not uniform, MS it neither ??respects the State laws mu fixes the amount itr-t li," As to the first poiut, it is suifit i- nt to reply that the U. iS. CutrstitAitioii, by expresg forms, empowers Congress to pass a nn'iforSn Bankrupt law. If the !n*.f i< mi if' o in there in no question as hi its constitutionality. Tlie lh'<jmtih says lb it the law is not uniform for the reason that '"it neither respects flio Stato law, nur fixes the amount ItSeirV' Of course no man with an'r.unec of brain wouid HCiiously declare a Bank rupt ait unconstitutional for the mere I reason that it failed l?*"respBct" some law or laws of Virginia ; sTJ We shall dospat'rlf that pi:t of the fffsp'ttih'* reasoning sulnniartfy. As to tho seenid p'rrt* of t}.?- Pis f.ahh't ireoud point ? that tho act is not uniform in that it dnea not "V.k the amount itself" -it i4- tfoougb to Buy, in the words of the old law maxim, that id cerfiun est an oil cerium vcddi pptcst?r what can be made certain, ^or !ix-:d,) in certain (or fixed)?and to refer the Dis patch to that part of the Hiukrupt act which reads as follows : ' It is hereby enacted that they (ih< lioutcstcad exemp'iois) shall ho tlx amount allowed by the Constitution and laws of each State respectively as exist ing jn tho year lbel ; and that sucl exemptions shall be valid against debt: contracted before the adoption and pas sage of Mich State Constitution tint luws, as well as those contracted after the same, and against liens by-judgment or decree of any State Court, any deci sion of any such court rendered binco the adoption and passage cf auch Consti tutions to the contrary notwithstand ing." Applying this section of the act to tho Constitutions aud laws of the various States as they stood iu 1S71, and construing the whole iu the spirit of tho maxim ubuvc cited, the amount of, homestead and exemptions allowed itrany given State is absolutely Uxcd and absolutely eertaiu. This disposes effectually of the points raised by the DlnpuUlt. But thorc is a graver question than any raised by the Difputch?and it is this : The amounts allowed as exemp tion? are not the same in all tho States . In South Carolina, for instsuco, the amo int allowed is $1500, white iu some other Slates the amount is greater and iu other', again, less. Ts xwh a Bank rupt law uniform? This is the question up-ln which tho U. S. Courts Will finally have to pass. -?? Our opinion is, that the law is in el] respects constitutional. Tho reasons upon which we biso our opinion will appear in another article. Poor American Children . Wo take tho following passage? from the admirable oration delivered by Rev. l>r.

Mr. Simmer'* Divorce. Tt lias already been announced that Mr. Sunnier had obtained a divorce fro tu bis young and dashing wife, on tho ground of continued absence?five years under the Massaohuctts laws. She was the widow of a millionaire Massachuetts Congressman--M r. Hooper?and only twetity two. The Cincinnati bmiuirpr says : 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 unlortunate proceeding. There was, natura'ly, a disparity of years and of tastes and habits.. This almost universally pro duces an unhappy marriage. Hut in this instance it was aggravated. Mr. Sunnier was not only a bachelor of long matured habits, but he had formed other connections and associations pecu liar to hinisolf aside from that fact. For instance, it was said thai he al ways had his carriage at the dour at any party or ball they mutually attended, at which he would say. "Madame, it is now 10 o'cloek ; it is time to go home, and our conveyance is below." She would reply, "I am happy to hear it. Von arc sh cpy and tired. I??? home and go to bed, but 1 a III not yet ready. 1 will follow yon by and by. So. good t ight my dear." Then, as you have Iteurdi tho Senator was siid to h i morbidly jealous of a certain gentleman connected with the Prussian Embassy, whom he had himself introduced to his wife, extolled in the high3*1 terms, and which gautle in au afterward escorted h r (o many evening amusements, which her hus band's habits fprbude him to attend. One day this young attache rocicved a very peremptory letter from Herl, n old. ring him to return home immediate' ly, and recalling him from the Prussian Legation, lie was thunderstruck by the iut< li'gei;'." ; not ? Oiisci ms nl any nll'i nsc against his government, he could not conceive what it miaul I! ? therefore wrote to an influential friend it homo to make inrjuC; ios of Count llisilMrck ns to what wad the real reason fur t'.is v rv OStr Ol din u y pr >coc ling In reply, he was i r!or;u,>d th.it llfj cluiiitnau of tho Scna.'c Committee on lparoi.ii L?y'.ali >\9', w!i > .was then $c-i.i j tor Charles Sunnier, lud^writ'.cu ?> lett.?r ?! renm stiug his recall, and thvt the Count did not consider that he was au thorized to refuse a rcujiost oomiug from Mich an i..i'!u?uiial souveo i.i il> 1 g incut to w hich ho was accredited.
