[ /. ondon Rtvitw. Jl HEW THEORY OE MARRIAGE. [From the Nation.] What our reformera p?eadfor here, and what ?good many of them practice, is simply easy divorce; in other word?, the dissolution of the marriage contract by a judicial tribunal when? ever either of the parties alleges tbat beor she has had enough of it. To deny a person this, they say, is to out bim from the "purbuit of happiness," which is well known to bs one of the inalienable rights." This is, it must be admitted, tolerably advanced ground, and they have greatly enjoyed standing on it, but they will be pained to hear that a French sister has S>t ahead of them and non leads the march on at line; and she is not one of the ignorant declaimers or fanatics of the "Redoute," but .an exceedingly acute thinker and powerful irriter, of whom a very large proportion of our woman's rights champions here ?light proba? bly toke lessons in logie and rhetoric. We mean Madame Clemence Royer, of whose able argument against the right of combination amongst the working classes in the December number of the Journal des Economistes, we spoke some time ago. Her remedy for the evils of the working man's condition we wailed for with some curiosity, and she has produced it io along article of the March number of the Bame peri?dica?. Her remedios fife, first, the revival of the old traue eorporafcon? of th? middle ages, but on a, different Dtreis, master and, workman to beincianieTpSin them;?econdlv, tho .mobilizoy J tion" Of the wofkinginno, thales* the Supply of j every possible facility for ms moving from | {?lace to place in" search of work; and under bia head she condemns in strong terms all movements which encourge him to become an owner of a house or real estate, as this mode of investing his savings naturally ties him down to one place. Bat then the workingman cannot bo mobilized very mach under the uest of circumstances, unless you also mobilize his family, and the "mobilization'' of a wife and children involves great expense and trouble. Upon reading her statement of its difficulties, we felt that Bhe was face to face with an insur mountable obstacle, but we are mistaken. Bare Bhe takes her great {,te?p ahead," and * 'leaves Ben Butler, Ben Wade, and the whole fraternity of our social explorers literally, in the language of the turi', nowhere. Her mode of mobilizing the family is to abolish the fami? ly. Woman, she says, needs and must always have a permanent abode. She cannot rove, as man can and must do; therefore let her not be tied to any man in particular, or any man to her. "We must then," she says, "mobilize the family, destroy its indissolubility. This is tbeonly way of saving it from shipwreck; it is only in reforming courageously that we can Srevent its falling into complete desuetude." o she proposes that the marriage contract should be dissolved on tho simple request of either of the parties, and that there should be instituted a kind of marriage corresponding to the confarreatio of the Romans, sufficient te legitimize the woman's position an 1 the birth of her children, but not binding on her or her husband longer than he or she pleases. The woman being the permanent person, Ma? dame Rover proposes -that she, and not the father, should give her name to the chil? dren to be the legal head ot the family, the father being relegated to a secondary position, and constituting in domestic life a kind of (shadowy auxiliary, of no moral influence or Weight, and not necessarily known to his chil? dren; and the mother taking as many hus? bands in succession as her 1 ?ney or circum? stances suggests J; the result being, we need hardly say, perfect happiness, purity and free? dom for all concerned, and on end. total and complete, to the quarrelings, falsehoods and oppression of the present system. The schema is worked out with much ability, and its bearings on property and other social arrange? ments are fairly considered. The editor of the Journal half apologizes for inserting this portion of the .article, which he styles "passablement excentrique; ' but he Justi? fies himself on the ground that his readers are "philosophers," to whom tho "moat delicate combinations" may be submitted with safety. We commend it to the careful consideration of our American reformers. Many of them will naturally peruse it with mortification, for there is no denying that Madame Rover is, at pr?sent, far in ndv?nee of them all. The moat fearless of them has never proposed to make : the mother tbe head of the family, giving her name to the children, and consigning the father to a nomad existence, in wbieh his do? mestic relations would bear the closest pos? sible resemblance to those of domestic ani? mals, and through which, indeed, the condi? tion of the whole human race would have -^SSite-W9 eteptoward the freedom and ex emotion from d^gKui?SF-ooji?fintional bonds ana restrictions now enjoyed ?y""tne ?AU?.W creation.
