THE LAST OF THE EVENING ExcHAN0E-By
reference to our financial article it will be seen
that the Stock Exchange, comprising both the
regular and open boards, passed resolutions
yesterday forbidding any Of their members to
deal, directly or Indirectly, at the Evening Ex-
change, under the penalty of expulsion. This
ia a wise determination on the part Of the two
associated bodies of stock brokers, and one
which will do much to improve their social
status, which the nightly orgies of the Evening
Exchange were greatly calculated to lower.
The domestic unhappiness and financial
ruin to which the sessions Of the evening
board have led, to say nothing of crime, would
be difficult to trace; but that it has been
hotbed of vice those most familiar with it can
abundantly testify. Its extinction ID benen'
to the Stock Exchange, to the city, TO moraiisy'
and to civilization. Many families will have
occasion to rejoice over it, and none Will regre'
its disappearance but the gambling dens on
the opposite side of the street to 1t and the
barrooms in the neighborhood. We were the
first to expose and condemn it, and it only
required that the bubble should be pricked In
order that it might burst. Henceforward the
Evening Exchange will be contemplate
thing, belonging only TO the history of these
exceptional times.

TROUBLE ABOUT THE NrooER SOLDIERS -The
niger soldiers now, who number over Afty
thousand, arc giving great deal Of trouble,

But II is evident that he does not UNDER

Of the niger soldiers thoroughly. Let the
first batch Of them be sent to New York and
we can dispose Of them among ell the different
islands in the hsrbor and rivers. The Loyal
Leaguers will no doubt be anxious TO present
the gallant fellows with another flag, and most
probably the ladies Of the Loyal League will
present each Of the fragrant heroes with .

be sent North and scattered all over the towns
and cities Of New England, where they will DO

ACCIDENTS TO Our SoLDIeRs.-Our soldiers
returning from the war have been particularly
unfortunate in meeting with accidents on rail-
roads and STEAMBOATS,. Hundreds Of brave iel-
lows who escaped the perils of battle have
been killed or muti)ated almost within sight of
home The last disaster OF this kind on record
was the explosion OF the steamer Argosy, on
the Ohio river, on Monday, having on board
three hundred men of the Seventeen Ohio in
fantry, many of whom were drowned or
scalded. In this instance, however, there ap-
pears to be no blame attached to the officers of
the boat, as she was driven ashore by storm,
and the conclusion burst the mud-drums of the
boilers.

BOGUS AND UNsOUND INSURANCE COMPANIES
In the midst of the heavy defalcations, embez-
elements, forgeries and the exposure Of bogus
oil and mining companies OF the past few
weeks, would it not be well for the community
to look little after the condition OF the life.
fire, and marine insurance companies that
abound not only in Wall street, but all over
the city? That many Of these companies are
unsound, if not entirely bogus we have heard
repeatedly charged. Insurance officers are
also frequently known to put off the payment
of losses upon the most frivolous pretexts, and
even compelling parties TO go into course OF
vexatious and expensive litigation to obtain
the payment Of inst and acknowledged claims
What is the Gauss of thiss II companies can
not pay legitimate claims thcy should be COM
PEELED to wind up, and not be allowed to fleece
the community at will. A stricter accounts
bility on the part Of insurance companies and
q general overhauling OF their affairs would
lead to reforms much needed in our insurance
system. We repeat that it would be well in
this era of swindling and public and private
corruption to overhaul these insurance compa-
MES If sound, they can readily prove it. If
unsound, they should be compelled to go by
the board.

MORE RAILROAD ACCIDENTS. "A Accidents on
the railroads, it is no harm to say, are follow
ing each other with railroad speed. They
average now about two each day, involving a
loss OF life and limb which is positively fearful
to contemplate. Yesterday two trains on the
Oil Creek Railroad, Pennsylvania pas
senger and freight train-came into collision,
and nine persons were instantly killed and
from ten to fifteen wounded. An excursion
train, filed with hundred and fifty passen-
gers, on the Old Colony Railroad, near Ablng-
ton Mass ran into hand car, and was
thrown down an embankment The casualties
in this case were, fortunately, not great, but
that is not due to the good management OF the
company. The only protection for the public
is in the verdicts of coroners' juries and the
activity of prosecuting officers. Until strik-
ing example is made Of some railroad director
railroad travelling can only be accomplished
at the imminent risk OF life.

TIE VIEWS OF A SENSIBLE SoLDmR.-The
views Of the rebel General Joseph E. Johnston
in reference to the policy and the duties now
devolving upon the Southern States and South
em people are the views Of an honest and
sensible soldier, and they also embody the
soundest statesmanship. During the war,
had JEFF Davis followed the advice and sup
ported the plans Of Joe Johnston, his confed-
eracy would not have suffered the ignominious
collapse which was brought upon II by the
folly Of Davis It wsuld at least have died
with something Of dignity and decorum. Cen
eral Johnston, however, retained, and still
retains, his popularity ell over the South; and
throughout the South these opinions Of his on
the consequences and duties resulting from
the war will do q vast amount Of good.
