He had beer addicted to drink, and bad before threatened "to make a hole in the water." o " . -An Interesting example of the way In which the liberal divorce laws *of Indiana some::met. operate ls given in a Louisville paper. . A woman in Indianapolis was in poor health, and fearing that in case she should die her husband would obtain the control of certain property that she possessed, she visited her elster in Louisville, Kentucky, In order to carry out a scheme which she had projeoted to prevent lr. While staying with her sister she crossed the river to New Albany, where '. she rented a house for three months, and on this transaction based a residence there. She then Instituted a suit for divorce, after which she returned to ?er husband In Indianapolis. About a year ago she received a tele? graph dispatch requesting her imme? diate presence In Louisville in con? sequence ot Illness in her sister's fam? ily, and showing this to her husband, he readily consented to a second visit to that city. At this time she again went over to New Albany, where she received her decree of divorce, which she quietly put ia her pocket and carried home. It is possible that the husband would have never known what had taken place, at least during her life time, had he not excited her ire by insisting one _day Wo much on his own way as the head ol the family; upon which she very curtly inform? ed him that he need not try to tyrannize over her, as she was not his wife, at the same time producing the documents to prove ber asser? tion. The husband was more than astonished; but he insists upon It that such a divorce as that will never stand, in which opinion he ls probably about right, -The New York Tribune, of Thursday, gives the following particulars of the arrest, in that city, of the pereon claiming to be the Earl of Aberdeen. It says: "Deputy Sheriff Judson Jarvis arrested Tuesday night 'Lord' George Gordon, alias George Henry Gordon, a!iss Gordon Gordon, at the suit o? Jay Gould, OD an order of arrest granted by Judge Brady. Gould swears that on the first oflast March he delivered to Gordon rix hundred shares of Erle Ballway stock, of the market value of $36,000;tbat he Instructed Gordon to sell the Btook, and with the proceeds to purchase eighty acres of land lo Westchester County, and that Gordon did not observe his Instruc? tions, but refused to ' return the stock, and converted it to his own use. Ball In $37,000 was furnished by Gordon, who was then re? leased from custody. Gordon ls an English? man, who came to this city some time since, representing hlmeelf as a large Erle stock? holder, and claiming that he owned half of aU, the Erie stock held in England. He "appeared at the.Erle offices at the time of Gould's over? throw, and loudly demanded admission, which was refused. It ls said that he claims to be the Earl of Aberdeen, whose fate was long in doubt, but whose loss at sea appears now to be Bottled beyond question. Notwith? standing this, Gordon is said positively to as? sert his identity with the lost Earl, and to de? clare his intention of claiming the Aberdeen estates." . ' ?_? ? The Sleeting at the Cooper Institute. The Liber?THepublican meeting held at the Cooper Institute in New York, on Fri? day evening, was imposing in character and in numbers; and the speeches of Senators Tram bull and Schurz, who then gave in their formal adhesion to the Cincinnati movement, are already giving the Anti-Grant party an ominous strength and consistency. The declaration of principles adopted by the meeting is strong and to the point. If the Cincinnati m?v?merit is dead, ns the Bread? en d-B ut ter papers insist, it is a very lively; corpse. ._ Captured and Abandoned Property. Chief Justice Chase bas delivered an opin? ion in the Supreme Court of the United States, in the case of Parqnod against the United States, which opens the way to nu? mer?os actions growing out of the late war. The case in point was a proceeding to re? cover the proceeds of a lot of cotton, seized nader the Captured; and Abandoned Proper? ty Act of 1863, an appeal from the Court of Claims, and was argued at the last term of the conrt The Court of Claims dismissed the petition on the.ground that it did not aver that the claimant' bad not given aid or comfort tb the rebellion, and that it did not sufficiently aver executive pardon. The Chief Justice held (the same as in the case of Armstrong vs. United States,, recently deci? ded,) that the President's proclamation of, December 26, 1868, granting pardon and amnesty unconditionally and without reser? vation, relieves the claimants, in all cases under Mle Captured and Abandoned Proper? ty Act, from proof of adhesion to the Un ited States during the late war, and the judg? ment dismissing the petition was reversed. It will j he Been that this is the second de? cision of the kind that has been rendered, and already many persons in the South have taken advantage of it. Under these decis? ions most of the property taken at the South during the war can be reclaimed. The Haullty of Naturalized Citizens to do Military JJ ut j-. Some anxiety having been manifested among our naturalized citizens, especially those from continental Europe, in regard, to their liability to do military duty in case of a return to their native country, it is stated by the New York World that under the terms of the treaties between the United States and the Germanic and other powers, there is no liability to military duty unless the natural? ized'citizen was .really in the army or was drawn for service and then emigrated. . If merely in a class liable to military duty be ia protected by the treaties, and will not be touched on revisiting bis native country. To take, for instance, the case of a Badener, under the treaty of Jury 19, 18?8, if he bas emigrated after being enrolled for service, or wh i le in service under the Hag, or while upon leave ol absence, or while in the militia or the reserve after summored for duty or after war bas broken ont, he will be held amena? ble for such default ou bis return, nor will his naturalization protect him. The same general rules apply under'the treaties with Bavaria of May 26, ?868; with Wurtemburg of July 27, 1868; with Belgium of November 16, 1868; with Hesse of July 23, 1869, and with Austria ol September 20, 1870. Under the treaty of February 22, 1868, with the North German Confederation, naturalization, provided the naturalized person does not re. turn within five years from his departure^ wipes ont all liabilty for military service, and remits any punishment, fine or cost which may have been declared on that ac? count; By bearing these facts in mind our naturalized citizens may ascertain for them selves how far they may venture upon for? eign travel. The North German, as fae Confederation was in 1868, may have no f ?ar of being harassed if he has resided fivey^ars uninterruptedly in the United States. The Bavarian, Badener, Austrian, and GO on, will find naturalization no protection against Bait for violation of military obligation, pro? vided he was at the time of hts emigration in service or summoned by name for service. In no case, however, we believe, can actnal military service be demanded. Wealth and Taxation in ihe United States. . The census figures just published show that tbe valuation of property in the United States increased from sixteen thousand mil? lions of dollars (bard money figures) in 1860, to thirty thousand millions (paper money) in 1870, equal to a nominal advance of 90 per cent. ; also show that the total taxation for State, county, city and town purposes has increased from ninety-four million dol? lars in I860, to two hundred aud eighty-one millions in 1870, an actual advance of 300 per cent. The federal taxation for 1871 yielded into the treasury three hundred and eighty-three millions. This added to the local taxation gives six hundred and sixty four millions as the amount of taxes collect? ed directly from forty millions of population, for one year, for the support of the general and local governments. This is at the rate of S16.50 per capita for every member of the population, or, estimating five persons to the Tamily, $82.50 per family. But in order to ascertain the total burden actually im? posed upon the people by the machiaery of government, we must add to the direct tax? ation the further amount which 13 collected through the tariff as a bonu3 to "protected" industries. This amount is estimated at I ? three handred millions per annum, which raises tbs grand total of taxes annually paid hythe people of the: United States to nine hundred and sixty-fonr million do Itara. 1 The total indebtedness of the States, counties and cities in 1870 was eight han? dled and sixty-nine millions. The federal debt was given on the first of the present I month at two thousand two hundred and ten m?lions. This gives ? total Indebtedness of three thousand and seventy-nine .millions, equal to ten per cent, of the total nominal valuation of the property of the country. The annual interest upon this indebtedness is less than one-third of the taxes directly col? lected. Summed np, the total annual bor? den imposed by government machinery, fed? eral and looafi upon the people of the United States, may be stated as followB : For 1nreN | est upon indebtedness, two. hundred and twenty million dollars; as a bonus to pro? tected industries, three hundred millions; for the direct maintenance of the govern-, ment, fonr hundred and forty-four millions. ?ostetter.'s Bitters.
