RAILROAD surT.-The case Of James Evans va.
the p, w. g. B. Railroad Co., was on trial before
the Court of Nis Prlus, In Philadelphia on Monday.
Plaintiff got on the train In Philadelphia, in July
1864, to go to Elkton. At Darby, he was point
Ing out the Fish House, to friend, when the
cars passed over the bridge, and his hand was
caught, managing his arm so as to render amputa-
ton at the shoulder necessary. Ho claimed
damages.
While counsel were addressing the jury, the at
torney for the plaintiff referred to case reported
in the books, and while discussing the question
of damages, spoke of verdict that had been
rendered for $2500 in railroad accident. Judge
Sherwood at once stopped the counsel, and said
that the remark was improper, and the case
should stop. The jurors were therefore dis
charged from the further consideration of the

DELAWARE MUTUAL LIFE INSURANCE Co.
Under the very efficient management of Mr.. Geo.
W. Stone, General Superintendent of this Com
pany, 1t Is beginning to do an excellent business,
not only at home but abroad. A general agent
mas been appointed for Maryland, and another
Tor Georgia, Alabama, and Tennessee, and the
business of the Company is being extended. The
reason the Company is, though new one, meet
ing with such success, is that 1t presents unusual
advantages to policy holders. All its policies are
non-forfeiting, while its rates are from twenty
I'VE to thirty per cent. lower than any other Mu-
tuai Company 1t is purely Mutual Company,
and all its profits, over its expenses, are divided
amongst the policy holders. The expenses, too,
are Kept down. 1t does not pay President a
larger salary than the President of the United
states receives, as do several New York and New
England Companies, but is conducted through
out on an economical plan. Again, Its Loan fen
ture renders 1t very attractive TO all business men
wishing to insure. But we must STOP or we
should 10 on enumerating advantages for half !,
column. 1t seems as though Mr.. stones large
experience had enabled him to add to II every
possible economical and advantageous teature
and we unhesitatingly advise our readers to in
sure In 1t.

We trust that Congress will not punish the
great mass Of Government employees in this
city, BY retrograde movement "on the 20 per
cent bill, because of the impulsiye outbreak
OF few clerks in the House galleries yester-
day, who could not restrain their manifesto
tons of JOY AT the success of a measure in
which they were so greatly Interested If
members OF Congress Will only In imagination
place themselves in the position OF these
Offenders against the rules, who tor a year past
have been pinching and saving, and despite all
Their economy have found themselves gradually
sinking deeper in debt month after month.
and who saw yesterday in the passage of the
Dill speedy relief from the incubus which
oPpresses them, they would no doubt treat
with leniency manifestation which was
natural, If improper. Relief from debt for
the husband, perhaps a new dress tor the wife
carriage Tor the baby, and possibly a little
Trip for the family oftwo OF three weeks to the
seaside or into the country, were blessings in
prospective, which, opening on them so sud-
denly after the hope deferred w ich makes the
heart sick, were more than poor human nature
could bear, and who can blame them if they
gave vent TO their emotions. They would have
been ungrateful if they had not shouted Sc
riously, We hope that no extraneous matter
may be allowed to delay favorable action on a
Dill which is only measure of tardy justice to
most worthy and hard worked class of EN-.
Ployes, who have seen the pay of all their Co.
IaOOTers throughout the country increased
while they have been compelled to 90 on at the
old insufficient rates.

the habit Of business men here to nut their

The Galts have during their entire business

They made money there as they deserved
20 do with honorable dealing and excellent
wares, ard now they invest 1t IN the erection of
business building that as much SURPRISES
their late establishment as that did its prede-
cessors.
Their new place of business was thrown
open to the public last night, and we venture
TO say that of the throng OF visitors. including
hundreds who have seen all that the leading
Cities Of Europe and America can show in the
wsy OF Jewelry establishments, not one but
conceded the new store of the Messrs. Gait to
equal an thing to be found in the world. q uiet
good taste Is the predominant characteristic of
the place. Gilt and tinsel glitter has been
carefully avoided, and the furniture, the or.
namentation, aud all the surroundings are of a
character of quiet elegance, calc ulated to please
the cultivated eye.
The private residences of the Messrs Gait
We should add, are also alike creditable to their
good taste and their disposition to contribute
