and Strict Construction of the Federal Constitution

The object OF Insurance ID indemnity
There il little wisdom in paying premium,
whether large or small, for : piece Of paper
called : Policy, unless there il osrtainty
that the company issuing tho policy il able
TO respond promptly in case Of loss. The
safety Of insurance companies consists main
y 10 the suf6ciency Of . paid up capital, and
also in the su1iciency Of the premiums
charged. By charging less than living rates
q company can and will, In no great length
Of time, use up ito surplus, infringe upon ito
capital, and be compelled TO wind up sud-
denly, without reference to tho rights or in
terests Of polioy-holders. In this matter,
therefore, the insured have vital interest,"
The severe competition which il raging gsn-
orally between insurance companies 10
worthy Of attention. In New York city the
Independent has lately taken up the subject,
and, while ii condemns this competitive
spirit, says that il is likely to become worse
rather than better. Prudent business men
are therefore becoming far moro particular
in taking ont policies in companies that re-
tain large surplus, than with those which
charge the lowest premiums.
1t is . great mistake on tho part OF in
surance companies that they have no longer
any settled tariff Of charges. The actual
cost OF insurance has been asoertained by
years Of experience and careful analysis, and
the rates Of insurance ought TO be rigidly
I.gai.s.i " sshA.s oo.s. Il, ;sasn, IN spite Of
the lessons Of experience, companies will Il.
low competition 70 nnsettle al regular rates,
will continue to do business 10 the hap. has-
ard manner too generally adopted, and will
entrust their management in the hands Of
incompetent parties, it becomes the interest,
- well - the duty Of the insured TO taks tn
matter into their own hands. They can
easily regulate the business BY following thu
example Of house in New York, msnsionsd
by the Indepssdsnt, who applied to I'll thu
companies TO know how much they would
reduce their published rates for large poll.
cy; and refused TO insure with any one sha
made any large reduction.

attracted the attention Of the special detect
i've force Of Mstsell h Co., New York, who
last evening dispatched Mr.. Mo0rath TO this
city, 70 Investigate the matter. When he left,
strong suspicious we're entertained In New

The traffic 10 skunk skins has suddenly be-

From the London Times.1
The sicklss TrageAy..From m Eng.
llsh POims 81 Vaows

We published yesterday very strange and
q very sad story from Washington. With
the recollection Of Sir Cresswsll Crssswslps
clients before our eyes We are not shout TO
6y into paroxysms OF virtuous indignation
because in the United States, - elsewhere,
woman 10 sometimes frail, and man general
~ vindietive. Such things are OF oil ages
and Of oil countries, and this Washington
story about Mr.. and Mrs. Sickles and Mr..
Key might ct any given season find its ooun-
tsrpart in tho scandalous chronicles Of any Of
tho European capitals, London included. II
10 true indeed that the husbands vengeance
WAS swift, savage and severe. Such 10 not
tho way In which such injuries are resented
in England; but, according to tho oivilixa-
ton OF tho country, 20 10 the fashion OF it,
revenge. One nation uses stiletto, anoth-
or revolver, another IN old aint-gun, .
fourth barristsr. We employ tho fourth
weapon in the United States tho second
comes more familiarly to the hand Of On OUT
ragged husband. The remarkable part Of this
occurrence, then, % far - We are concern
cd, 10 the form which tho husbands vsn-
geance assumed. Had soch story - this
happened in England, and had tho husband
in due course put his case into the hands Of
the family solicitor, and had that useful per-
sonage, still in due course, feed counsel and
brought Il before the Judge Ordinary, We
should scarcely have given the report 500
ond glance. Deny il who may, the truth il
that habit renders oil persons but tho imms-
date family, friends and scquaintancss Of
the parties TO such suits, profoundly indif-
fersnt to the matter. We can hardly cay il
equal apathy exists on tho other side Of the
Atlantic, whom the injuries Of this class are
avenged in the terrible manner Of this Wash
ington tragedy. At Arst sight the fast that
On injured husband ct once rushes to tho CON-
clusion that nothing but the blood Of the
adulterer can DO accepted % IN sxpiation for
his wrong, and would seem 10 argue high
or conception Of tho marriage vow than the
one which obtains among ourselves. We
cannot, however, ct the Same time forget
that American hands are swift TO shed blood
for injuries Of far inferior Glass to those
Of which We are speaking. The form then,
Of Mr.. Sickles' revenge Was according 10 the
fashion Of his ago and country. We think
| it probable that had hs been an Englishman,
living in London, he would have actsd 9TH
erwise. Take it, however, - yon may, the
story 10 . most lamentabls one. In England
much interest will DO felt in it from the fast
that the unfortunate young wife-and sure-
| ~ she 10 most unfortunate-was known Ia the
social circles Of London. When Mr.. Buch-
anan was minister over here, her husband,
Mr.. Sickles, WAS the Secretary Of Legation.
He Was accompanied by bic wife, child ia
years, and still moro child in appearance.
She excited interest in every one-vho net
her in those days, and many IN English
friend will grieve st the termination Of hsl
brief career.
