WHOEVER asserts or intimates that
any one except the avowed editor
writes or incites the political editorials
in tho C5lamjian is simply puppy--a
puppy who would be scamp if he had
brains enough. lie who reprints is
little better. The utter contempt we
feel for such petty SANDERS and those
who cOncoct and peddle them usually
prevents us from noticing them, but
when they involve Others this becomes
duty. We have always endeavored
to treat Our editorial brethren in a
gentlemanly manner, whether we be-
lieved them gentlemen rnot, but when
they traducc others for the sake of in
sulting us it becomes necessary to take
such notice of them as people usually
bestow upon their kind.

of correcting the i'm preston that seems
to have gone forth that "Chicago has

says: "While $4,000 houses have been
swept away, $4,000 yet remain; and
while $4,000 persons have been rendered
homeless, an immense city of 2lj,00O
persons has not been disturbed The
whole of the immense area of the West
Division, with its miles of dwelling
houses, stores, school houses, churches
and manufactures, is almost intact,
while on the South Side great many
fine residences yet remain, with spen.
did business blocks, churches, and in.

much information valuable to every per-

to him pecu iarly trying case, Judge E.
acquitted himself with the great ability
for which he is distinguished, and all
accord to him entire inpartiality and
an exactly correct discharge Of duty.
The circumstance Of the defendant be-
ing the only son of au intimate and

and the additional fact Of long personal
intimacy with the family, made the
position of his honor extremely critical

that he discharged his duty in exact

INsURANCE.-In another column
will be found the animal statement Of
the Penns valley Fire Ins. Co. from
which it will be seen that the Affairs
are in healthy condition. The risks
and insurances Of the company, in
force at the present time, sum up three
and n half million dollars. BY Look.
ing over the expenditures, the mem.
bers of the company will readily per-
ceive, that greater economy could not
have been practiced, and we venture
to say that there is no other company
in the United States, doing the same
amount of business which is conduct
ed with as little expense, and in which
the losses and assessments have been
less. We think it the duty of every
property holder this side the county
to become member of our own home
company. There are not only less
risks, but the affairs are conducted by
our citizens, men whom we know and in
whom we can repose confidence. Since
the organization of the company, some
fourteen years ago, not single dollar
can be shown to have been misappro-
priated, and the officers and directors
have ever been faithful in the dis
charge of their duties.
