Of persons resident in the West Indies,
presents advantages such as no other AS
surance Company, labouring in the same
field, can offer. It's scale of Premiums,
although considerably lower than that of
any other Company, has nevertheless been
found quite adequate to provide for the
risk Of life in the West Indies, and sufi-

which Reversionary Bonuses, averaging

Its career, during a period of 81 years,
has clearly demonstrated the fact that the
lives of persons residing in this part OF
the world, are, when carefully selected,
almost as valuable as those inhabiting
Europe, and that they do not demand
such excessive Premiums as are charged
by every other Company.

population Of the ten States in question but
of these" nine millions" over Three Millions are
Blacks-every one of them an enthusiastic sup
norter of the policy Of Congress, and an I'M

there is large class Of loyal Whites-certainly
NOT less than one million-who complain only
that fine act is not so stringent as 1T

that tbey would remain forever DISTINGUISHED

The diversity Of conviction evinced by the
Veto Message is so broad and clear that shere
is no excuse for sophistry or pettifoggmg; ana
the Presidents alluson to past Instructions
in Massachusetts, Pennsylvania &C., as parai-
Iels TO the great Southern Rebellion, insults
the understanding Of his readers In each Oh
these cases, the State wherein the insurrectlon
arose was firmly attached to the Union, ana
tbe rebellion delled her authority exclusively
or in conjunction with that Of the Nation. a
conspiracy of ten OF twelve States, through
their organized governments, to divide anu
subvert the Union, is as different from this as
| chalk from cheese, and demands totally diverse
treatment. And the fact that confederacy and IN
sunection are alike legally invalid, proves
nothing beyond itself-at all events, proves
nothing to the Presidents purpose.
But we cannot make room further to expose
the errors embodied in this most unfortunate

and advised those States TO accept and ratIfy the

been back in their proper places ere this and

listen to and trust in the President-with what

TIE CUSTOMHOUSE FRAUDS.

The report of the Committee on Public EX-
penditures upon the frauds i'll the NewYork
Custom House is long, because the frauds
were great; so that from a glance at the six
columns we devote to the subject the reader
may infer to what an unusual extent the
administration of Collector Smythe de-
parted from the strict path of virtue. A
great deal of property and money passes
through our Custom-House, the value Of
imports =. in 1866 being $780,, 5OjS19, on
which duty of $l3i, S93,1H was collected.
Much of this merchandise is necessarily sent
to the General Order store, where it is kept
till all charges are paid. 1t is evident that an
enterprising man might keep this store to
advantage, and so Mr. Smythe seems to have
thought when he looked around for store
keeper. Indeed, the Committee found that soon
after his appointment, last Summer Mr.. Smythe
averred that A" the North River General Order
"bgJpeSs is the big plum for the Collector
so be thrust in his thumb aud he pulled out
tue plum, and, we judge from the report,
divided all that was eatable with his
friends, and then generously presented
the Government with the stone. The
Committee undertook TO examine the way the
plum was divided, and found that Mr.. Smythe
had sold it to Miller & Conger for $4,000
year, of which Senators Doolittle aud Patterson
were each to have 5000, Mrs. Perry, "a Washing
"ton woman" $4,000, others other amounts, leav-
ing $4,000 as II political fund.-" of which Mr..
Smythe appointed himself Trustee. Mr..
Humphrey who formerly kept the store, was to
have had a share, but died before getting it, an
event whicll may have agonized the hearts of
his colleagues, though the only expression of
grief recorded is that "there was one less to
divide wth.n However, Miller & Conger did not
get the General Order business and it became
necessary " find another purchaser. Mr.. C, c.

The North German Parliament has chosen as
its President Professor NJ. L. Simson of K0enigs-
berg. Prof. Simson has taken a prominent
part in the various efforts for establishing the
unity of Germany. having been, in 1S48 and
1640, Vice-President of the German Parliament
Of Frankfort, and, in 1852, President of the
Parliament Of Erfurt. He is now as he was in
184S, a leader of the moderate Liberals or, as
they are more frequently called, the cold Lib
erals" whose number has been, in late years,
greatly reduced by the increase of the more
democratic "Party Of Progress" The "Old
Liberals" undoubtedly, are but a small minor
ity in the North German Parliament, and the
election Of Prof. SiusOn may be regarded more
as a tribute to personal worth and disposi-
ton towardi Cancellation than as a proof of
the strength of his party.

Mr.. Devlin has INTRODUCED a bill in the AS
embly to make gas companies furnish dry
meters and to prevent them from charging as
much for poor as for good gas. This right.
But the gas monopoly has won victory in
Congress which will more than compensate for
any defeat in Our Legislature. The House
Conference Committee, in agreeing to the
clause in thesSsnate Tax bill, which allows
companies to impose their taxes on con-
sumers, sacrificed the rights of the people.
The effect is that gas companies are not
taxed by the United States and that we bear
their burdens. Nothing could be more unjust
in principle.

johnson paid $4,000 to farm it out, and it APP
pears that he made his profit by causing the
charges against importers to be illegally raised
receiving IS per cent Of which he kept 80, and
gave Mr. Smythe s. The small size Of this
plum caused dissatisfaction, and then followed
q series of changes of agents, and changes of
percentage, which we need not detail. The
substance Of it may be with great cleamcss
stated thus The merchants complained of over
charges Collector Smythe affirmed that he did
not makea cent out of the business; Senator Doc
Titles son "gOt very good places" President
JohnsOns son got, Orwas to get $1,000; none OF tho
witnesses had any distinct recollection OF any
thing; somebody had sworn a dreadful oath
that Congress shouldn't find anything out; and
Mr.. Smythe, who never got a cent paid $500
70 Mrs. Perry, though who Mrs. Perry Is, what
she did and why she did it, is not fully set
forth in any of the testimony. Thus it Is not
plain who made the most out Of the plum.
though there is no doubt that the Government
made nothing.
Those who have a curiosity to thread laby.
rinths will enjoy such revelations; but weneed
only add that the Committee affirm that Col
lector Smythes profligate practices, his extFaya-
eancc his wantOn interference with the nights
of merchants, require his immediate removal.
The rest of their report is valuable as an analy-
s;s Of the Seizure Bureau-which it is argued
he essentially mOdfied-and an inyestga-
ton of our Detective system abroad, from which
II il concluded that, to prevent the most
fragrant abuses of our Revenue system. all
Treasury detectives in other countries should
he recalled at once. The Committee, OF Which
Mr.. Hulbllrd is Chairman, seem to have done
their work well, and the report, which we
print in full, deserves the grave consideration
of Congress, and may possibly suggest to the
President that the Treasury would proilt by
greater care in making his appointments.
