RIVERS, WEATHER, BUSINESS.
Eighteen hundred and seventy-one will
long be remembered as the year OF
storms. We have had several gales this
season, all of which have done more or
less damage in this vicinity. A wind
storm came mp yesterday after aoon, pre-
ceded and followed by rain. Trees we're
blown down by the roots, houses were
unroOfod and signs we're tossed about in
the air in lively manner We have so
far heard of no damage 10 steamers at the
levee. The river here Is at a stand, just
one foot below the high water mark of
1867. Our dispatches give the latest
news from above. The Arkansas and
White rivers are falling. Business on the
Iovee yesterday was retarded by the
storm.

lapse, new and then, of an insurance com-
pany, it is evident that new safeguards must
be thrown around the system before it can
be made as perfect as it ought to be. This
is not an easy task, but it would be very
proper and commendable one for the Legisla-
ture; and if that body will seriously under
take to devise means for discriminating be-
tween good and bad companies, and for
prosecuting criminslly, as swindlers, all
directors or agents who obtain the money
of the public by false representations, it
will do great deal more good than is to be
accomplished by the mere creation of lu-
crative new Office The subject of insurance
should be carefully considered in all its bear
ings, and comprehensive system adopted
that would ward off all the existing dangers
and reform all the prevailing abuses.

AN INSURANCE DEPARTMENT.

BILL creating an Insurance Department has
recently been presented in the State Legisla-
ture and published in THE TELEGRApH. Its
leading feature consists in the transfer to a
new official of the business and duties con-
nected with insurance which are now en-
trusted to the Auditor General change
which in itself will be of comparatively little
utility unless it tends to awaken increased in
terest and attention to the general subject
In one respect the proposed reform would be
likely to be detrimental to the State. The
Auditor Genera, being an elective officer
chosen by the people of the whole State, is
usually q man of wide reputation for honesty
and capacity, whereas the proposed Superin-
tendent of Insurance would be an appointee
of the Governor; and if he proved mere
mercenary spoils-hunter he might enrich
himself by blackmailing good insurance
companies and by coanivins at the
operations of fraudulent institstions.
At the same time there is no doubt that
insurance has attained such a magnitude that
additional legislation is needed to protect the
public from imposition and to secure an
honest and faithful administration of the
affairs of the respective companies. Perhaps
the best method of attaining this end would
be to apply principle like that Sidney Smith
proposed to apply to railway travel as pre-
ventive of accidents. He suggested that
directors should be put on the locomotives of
passenger trains, and it would be we'll to pro-
vide that the directors of insurance com
panies should not only be made liable peou-
niarily for the acts of the companies
they control, but that they should also
be punished criminally for any specially
grievous act of wrong-doing. 1t is becoming
a practical question, in some instances
whether there is not a necessity for insurine
those who have undertaken to insure pro-
perty and lives; and while good and respon-
sible companies abound, an oyerabundance of
'tricks that are vain" are practised by agents
and officials connected with some of the CON-
panies. Insurance is, inherently such a
useful and essential part of the economy of
modern life, that it would be exceedingly un-
fortunate If the public confidence in it was
materially diminished or destroyed; but in
view OF the numerous misrepresentation
made from time to time by untruthful
agents, the obscure clauses inserted in some
policies, and the occasional efforts to eyade
their obligations, as we'll as the financial col

We wonder whether the City Council OF
Charleston could not be prevailed upon to
wipe out or postpone the taxes for the cur
rent year, assessed upon the citizens who
are so unfortunate as TO own real estate
The Aldermen confess that they and the
Mayor have at their discretion remitted
license taxes, or deferred their payment, and
we believe that the Mayor has frequently re-
mitLed the property tax in the same way. 1t
is tr7e that the Ordinance requiressal prop
erty to be taxed, and imposes license tax
upon every branch of business. But Mayor
Pillsbury and bis Aldermen, who make laws,
can afford to laugh at Ordinances Of their
own creation. The first object with most OF
them is to secure reelection. Charleston
and its interests are Of no consequence.
Perhaps it would be as we'll to give notice
at once that every man who binds himself to
vote for Pillsbury Il Co., in August, will
have his tax remitted. In this way the
whole city could be converted in less than a
week, perhaps.

William Morris, and the other from the French

The English papers are protesting against
the terms exacted by Prussia. The Saturday

Allies Of 1914, have not troubled themselves
much with the principle of eradicating hostlll'

| Their estimate of human nature, or at least o.
| French nature, is far from exalted. They cal
cpste on France nursing the spirit OF ven

be fortunate, If, IN 1874, when the indemnlt!
