Professor Agassiz stands alone' among prominent scientists in oppos ing the Darwinian theory of the de velopment of animal life by evolution, and for this reason he has received much local homage. But it must not be forgotten that scientific research is in its infancy in this country, and that Agassiz, a man of foreign birth, is the only noted .authority we can boast. Por this reason, he here takes the lead in. scientific inquiry, but in Europe he is Bated as a student of the second class and not Of the first, lii- deedj his reputation rests upon his specialties of glacial theories and re search in the lower animal kingdom. The doctrine of evolution needs more than one opponent to check its pi*o- gress, supported as it is by the entire body of advanced scientists in G'er- manynnd England.

Some time ago application was aade to the late Chancellor Zabriskic -'’\-ag that ract might be granted to Mr. I Carris, of Newark, from his made to the asking t a nullity of the m.i;rna^e contract might be granted to Mr. Solomon Carris, of Newark, from his nfo on the ground, as alleged, that he had made false representations of lurity When marrying him. It was liRmed that,-fi‘aucl in a ‘contract viti- tes it, but,the latei Chancellor thought otherwise,' and reAsed to grant a divorce, claiming that the statute law of New Jerscy was opposed to grant ing a divorce on . that gi’onnd. The main difficulty between Carris and his wife <vas that the latter gave birth a child two m onths after her mar- thc father of which wits some than Carris, and that when the marriage took place the husband was sxtlUl- liild two months afte ,ther of which ;Jarris, ai ok place unaware of his wife's delicate situa tion. TJiis constittuted the fraud in riage, the father of whi other than Carris, e took pla 3 of his \ ?Jiis const! the coutract which it' is (herefore claimed imed was void a h in ii in . 'The parties were married in New York and came to Ncwai’k aftej-ward's. The marriage, according to Mr. K alisch’s idea,’Could not be held in New Jorsoi’-, on account of the lex lost contractus. Notwithstanding the Chancellor's re fusal to grant the divorce, the case was sent to the Court of Errors where it has since been decided to reverse the former decision and annul the contract on the ground that the woman at the time was laboring un der an incapacity and had no power to make such a contract. The case is a very important one, not so much because the CbancclloFs opinion was reversed, but because it establishes the important principle that when fraud o f an extraordihary natur curs in a marriage contract, the : may, upon proof, be declared void tr'om the beginning. The above case is the only one of its kind that has^ ever occurred in New Jersey.— N e tv - arJe Journal, 21.000. 000 ACEES! C2IEAF FARMS!
