Interesting from Warrington.
WASHINGTON, February 23.-Stan-
ton has been lodging in the War
Office since last Friday. He was re-
commended to this course by Con-
gressmen, who apprehended that On
attempt would be made to take DOS
session of the Office by force.
Gen. Grant yesterday detailed Col.
Carr, member of Gen. Emory's
staff, to remain at the War Office,
and the guards have been doubled.
A large number of members, of
Congress called on Stanton to-day
and held long consultations with him.
They assured him of the support of
all the Republican members; that
their party would act as an unit in
both houses; and now that impeach-
ment is fairly inaugurated, there
would be no faltering until the mat
ter is finally settled.
, After the impeachment resolution
passes the house tomorrow, Stanton
will go home, as his friends think
that, after that event, the President
Will not venture on any aggressive
movement.
It is ascertained that Gems. Grant
and Emory, the latter commanding
the department., will obey no orders
of the President which conflict with
the tenure Of Office Act or the ex-
pressed will of the, Senate. 1t has
not! transpired, however, that the
President has issued or intends to
issue any such orders.
In the whole matter, so far, the
President has confined himself to
civil proceedings and has directed
that an application be made to the
Court tomorrow for writ of quo
aod,rdnt0 against Stanton.
The excitement to-day has been
great, but events nave made no pro-
gress, and this evening public senti-
ment is toning down. The moro
wild of the radicals assure their lis
teners that three days will do the
work, but with each hour they are
growing less confident.
The House ourned last night at
half-past IL Lock, to meet to-day
at 10.
Nearly all the Democratic members
of Congress, Mr.. Seward and many
prominent citizens and strangers
called on the President to-day. The
excitement which pervades other
circles is not perceptible at the White
House.
WARRINGTON, February 24.-Com-
parative quiet this morning, no more
war talk; application has been made
Tor quo aparrdnt0 against Stanton.
The House is debating the impeach-
ment resolutions; its passage is still
regarded certain.
+ At half-past 10 o'clock this morn
ing, Thomas went to the War De-
partment, ordered Stanton to vacate
and demanded the mails. Stanton
again refused. Thomas went to the
Adjutant- Generals Office, but issued
no orders. Neither party has yet
issued any order which requires re-
cognition by the other departments.
Senator Morton, of Indiana, is
positively reported as saying that
these parties would not stand the
pressure, and that the present feel
ings and purposes of the House could
not be sustained.
1t is stated that McCulloch will not
recognize Stanton's official requisi-
tions.
The most profound silence followed
the enunciation of the vote.
Stanton to-day said he wished the
reporters would let him alone. The

Concentrated responsibility

There appears TO be, in these days, an
increasing desiris by the public for things
that are permanent, substantial, and in every
way reliable. This, as sign of the times
is most encouraging. In our public build
iDgs we see massiveness and an extent Of
accommodation never thought. of by our
fathers; in our bridges, telegraphic cables,
immense railroad lines, and all internal i'm
prOyements, We are willing to sacrifice any
considerations of present or doubtful advant-
age, for permanence, security, and extended
eapabiity. So too in regard to our incorp-
Grated iinstitutiOns, we exhibit disposition
to establish such bodies upon wide and Sc
cure foundations, to abandon the idea Of
numerous small and comparatively irrespon-
sible companies, with limited capitals, and
to concentrate, as far as possible, the respon-
sibility on which the public monetary inter
ssts may depend. The substitution of q
reliable and concentrated banknote system
in the place Of that one which allowed a
little bank, in any little town, to send on
notes Of very little value, anywhere but at
home, and which might become at any mo-
ment Of no value anywhere, has been Of the

greatest public service. A national bank

Florida, and if the issuing bank cannot

So With insurance and other Companies Of
the kind. The most popular life Insurance
company in America viii doubtless be the
''NatiODal Life insurance Company of the
United States" The charter of this Com
pany is not given by any State Legislature,
but by the United States Congress. 1t is
intended to cover in its operations the whole
country. It's capital, not dependent upon
future contingencies, is one million dollars,
all paid in. Its directors and managers are
men who stand at the very head of financial
affairs in this country, CLARENCE h. Clark,
Jay Cooke, and others Of the very highest
integrity. There rs nothing about this Com
paDy which shows any signs of possible
weakness in its construction. 1t is not
Necessary that its business should increase,
and its affairs flourish, in order that it may
be relisble aud competent to meet all losses
and just demands. 1t is so now, Founded
by men of wealth, IFS position is such at It's
very Inauguration, as few companies can
hope to reach after years of successful ex-
istence. There is no risk, no dependence on
the future success of the Company for ones
belief in its character.
Besides this substantial foundation, the
National Life Insurance Company presents
many inducements to those who wish to
make provision for the future of their fami-
lies. It's rates are very low in comparison
with other companies It's policies are non
fOrfeiting. They are negotiable, but cannot
be attached by the creditors of the insured.
All its promises are definite and certain
there,,is no chance or dependence on future
profits iu any of them. There are no an
necessary restrictions in its policies, and no
' extra charges of any kind.
Then, its plans are of various and sdvan-
tsgeOus kinds. By one, party can be
insured in the ordinary method. By an
other, all the money received as premiums
win be added to the amount Tof the policy
and returned to the heirs at the death of the
insured. By the Endowment Plan, the pol
icies are payable t. the insured after the
lapse Of a stated term of years, or to his heirs
whenever bis death may occur.
By the IncOme-producing Plan not only
viii the family or heirs of the insured party
receive the full amount of his policy at his
death, but he viii, himself, receive yearly
income, after ten, fifteen, or more years, as
may be agreed upon.
Therefore, it is easy to perceive that, by
uniting, in one Company, all advantages,
both of plans of insurance and of absolute
security, arising from an immense combina-
ton of capital, the National Life Insurance
Company gives every promise of being,
truly, The Life Insurance Company of the
nation.

EVEN so bitter a Democratic paper
as-the National IatelIigsneer of Wash
ington speaks thus in rebuke of the
methods by which the New York De-
mOcracy succeeded in carrying that
State:
''The result which we chronicle to-
day, Of the vote of the state of New
York, fully proves that our worst ap-
prehensioDs have been realized. The
evidence of treachery is plain. It will
be seen that Hoffman leads Seymour
BY many votes, and the caution which
we gave a few days has been undecided.
Tammany with all its corruptions has
triumphed at the expense of all party
fealty, and will now reVel in undisturb-
ed possession of the spoils wrung from
the over taxed people of the Empire
State. With such an unequivocal pro-
fession of duplicity and treachery as
result exhibits, we call upon the Demo
Gratis and Conservatives of the country
to scorn in the future all affiIiation with
their spectators"
