cleared at the Custom House, which the Captan in,
formed him would be done at Il O'Clock on Weanes-
day morning.
] Tuesday evening Mr.. IIussEr's partner. Captaip
BLACK, and runner of the port named TALBOT, went
by invitation of Capt MARTIN on board the yacht to
collect the shipping bill as she was understood TO be
getting ready tosai Shortly after getting on board
Capt. B. observed certain movements which con-
WINGED him that the Vandersr was about to put to
sea- when he proposed to go on shore Capt. MAR
TN then stated to him that he was going to leave the
port, and thatno living soul should leave the vessel
fat under the circumstances he would not trust his
own brother, and that he would blow out the brains
of any man who attempted to leave the vessel 1t
being useless to offer any resistance Capt B. obeyed
the order to go below, where he laid down upon a
sofa, and after some time, being much fatgued fell
asleep.
Between three and four O'Clock in the morning he
was awakened by commotion on board, and found
that the yacht was aground Captain MARTIN was
IN towering passion at the mishap, ard was very
uneasy until about 10 O'Clock when the tide enabled
the WGaderer to float, and she was again got under
way and stood out TO sea. Capt BLACK and his kid
mapped companion now renewed their appeals to be
put shore, to which Capt. MARTIN replied that he
could not release them, and that if they would 60
the voyage with him it would be greatly to their adj
vantage. Perssting in their entreaties to be put
ashore, the Captain of the Wdderer finally consent
ed, when he well out of the harbOr to let them

at rapid rate, they were allowed to jump into
their boat which was towing astern. As the line
was east Off the Captain said TO thenl-"Now GO

people of Savannah, and tell them to -.''
The conclusion of his speech which not distinct

FOREIGN INSURANCE COMPANIES.

All are considered Foreign Insurance Companies
not chartered by our own Legislature; but the
law now stands it is difficult fora Company charter
ed not bv State of this Union, but by foreign
government to comply with laws. If it be not
the poIicy to encourage these companies to do bus
ness in the State. as it doubt Is both for the
revenue If brings and the ampeP security it affords
the insured the law might be changed for their
convenience without eecting the safety OF the Com
panies.
There is some conflict as to whom the Companies
shall pay their tax Sec. Cos requires it to be paid
TO the Clerks who issue the license. Sec. POS re-
ouires the Comptroller to settle with the Banks In
surance Companies, &c, for Common School monies,
subject to annual distribution. All taxes on prIyl-
leges specific taxes, &c (Sec 94S, Subsec. 81 are
annually distributed to Common Schools. This tax
upon Insurance Companies is both tax upon privi-
leres (Sec $50 Sub-seC 81 and specific tax, (Sec.
553 Subsec l2) and therefore distributable annu-
ally TO the Common School fund. If the COmptrol-
Ter do not settle with them for this there Is no other
settlement to make. If Sec. Cos were repealed. the
money would be paid into the Treasury when the
Companies filed their statements with the COmptrOl-
| Ter If paid under that Section. Companies must
send around to all Clerks where Agencies are es-
+o1Iishcd the receipt of the Clerk where the first
yras started Without this, the Clerks would have
no evidence the tax had been paid But they must
act without this testimony as all the certncates Tor
Accents are generally sent out by the same mail. II
one Clerk acts without evidence Of the fact Of pay
ment. upon the Agent telling him the tax was pald
in another. county, all may do 50, and the Company
nav never pay il. The only way TO ind out Bouid
be to examine the annual settlement of every Coun-
tv Court Clerk in the State TO see if any particular
| Gompanv had paid This very heavy labor would
never be performed unless a suspicion were aroused
as to the good faith of the Companies or the Clerks
Most if not all the other States allow the Comp
toer reasonable fees for his services to these Com
! panies, to be paid by them.

The SOUTHERN ELECTIoNs.-We do
not gain much further definite informa-
ton in regard to the Southern cleo
tious. 1t appears to be conceded that
Sam Houston is elected Governor of
Texas. We hear nothing about the
Congressman. The Democratic can
didate for Governor in Kentucky, has
5000 majority. 1t is believed that the
opposition have four congressman.
The Democratic Governor of Tennes-
see is reelected by majority some
what reduced from the 1900 which
he received two years ago. The Con-
gressional delegation is politically re-
versed, standing seven opposition to
three Democrats. The Legislature is
Democratic. The Democrats of ala
bama make clean sweep, re-electing
their Governor by over 10000 MAORI
ty. The Congressional delegation of
North Carolina is equally divided max
ing an opposition gain of two. We
should judge the vote to be light in
