WHAT WILL NOT CONGRESS REGULATE p
A bill has been reported in the House of
Representatives for the establishment OF
a National Bureau Of Insurance, which
makes the Bureau sclf.sustaining, while it
offers security in the matter Of insurance
by requiring all companies who may act
under the law to deposit United States
bonds, the amount varying according to
their capital stock. Noparty is permitted
to transact fire, marine, and life insurance
business at the same time. The object of
the proposed Legislation is said by its friends
to be to give every company an opportunity
to show its solvency, in order that the pub
lie may be guarded against fraud-the
principle being similar to that now applied
to the National Banking Association.
The object is to NEEDLE with everybody's
business. Nothing will be left to tho States,
which have been reduced to the dignity
Of municipal corporations.

The numerous friends of DR.. David s.
Doggett will be gratifed to learn from the
Geographic dispatch from New Orleans that
he has been elected Bishop of the Southern
Methodist Church. The appointment could
have fallen upon no one more worthy. DIR.
Doggett was born in Westmoreland county,
in this State, in June, 1911. He commenced
preaching at nineteen years of age, and had a
charge at the unusually early age of twenty
one. He shortly after married. He rose rap
Idly in distinction, and was appointed Chap
lain Of the University. He there became a
most devoted student, and was only prevented
from graduating by severe attack of illness.
He was afterwards appointed a Professor in
Hampdcn Sidney College, which position he
held for six years. He has held charges sue
cessivelly at Lynchburg, Petersburg, Richmond,
Norfolk and Washington city. He was in
Richmond during the war, employed, as he
continues to be, in the ministry and as an edi-
tor of religious periodical. He is now one
of the editors of the Episcopal Methodist, a
popular religious paper recently commenced
in this city. Wherever his vocation has call
ed him, he has commanded both the respect
and esteem, not only of his own church mem
bers, but the community generally. His even
temper, frank manner, kind disposition and
general Intelligence, were well calculated to
do this In his Office, none could be more
discreet and earnest His appointment is
| therefore an excellent one.--l2ichmoa1d Dis
