We learn from special to the Chica-
go Journal that recently delegate
Hooper, of Utah, had an interview with
the President relative to affairs in that
territory. 1t is understood that he laid
before the President the Mormon side
Of the question, ono point of which is
the admission Of that Territory as a
State into the Uunion, with provision
In its constitution prohibiting poligamy
hereafter, but allowing existing rels-
tons to remain, so as to legitimatiEe the
children OF Mormons. It Is stated that
the President did not commit himself
to any particular line OF policy on this
proposition. He will probably leave
the matter entirely with Congress. & . /

INSURANCE.

We have read many articles upon the
subject of insurance, says the Atchison
Champion, and we have had q practical
experience in losses by fire and the
subsequent adjustment of those losses
by the insurance companies. We were
paid all that was due us, and have no
right to complain ON that score. But
the striking difference between the
bland and persuasive air and manner of
the agents who solicited the policies,
and the surly, ungentlemanly, insulting
and impertinent style of tAe adjusters
who came to look after the losses, was
most astounding, and to us will always
be an unpleasant recollection of the in
surance business. The following arti-
Gle which we take from the ST. Louis
Democrat, shows that those insured,
even in the Oldest and best companies,
have experienced this same insufferable
treatment. And we are inclined to be-
lieve,l from all we have heard of the
adjustment of insurance losses, that
this experience is a general one, and
that the insurance adjuster is generally
an ill-mannered, insulting fgnoramus
and ruffian. There are, of course, ex-
captions to this very general rule. We
found two-Mr. l. y. Blaokwilder, then
of the Home, of New Haven now, we
believe, employed in the same capacity
by the Continental. of Philadelphia; ;
and Mr.. John H. Brown, of Leaven-
worth, then working for the North
America, OF Philadelphia, and the Hart
ford. But contact with any of the 9TH
er adjusters with whom we had any
dealings was sure TO result in some in
suit or outrage, on their part, that made
itimpossible for us to deal with them
without anger and indignation. The
Democrat thus speaks of the general
method of insurance adjustment, aud
it speaks frankly, truly and wiselyi
"But the Chicago FIRE has also demon
strated that even the best and oldest
insurance companies arc capable of bad

There are several rather peculiar fea
lures about the existing strike in Ger
many, in which half million work
ing men have Joined. The strike was
thoroughly arranged before any opera
tive quilted work. There were no balks
and no false starts. The movement
owed its origin to no special grievances,
but is merely strike on principle, de-
signed to secure some alterations in the
system of work and wages. The whole
thing has been managed with true Ger
man elaboration, and passion has had
very little to do with it. But the most
curious thing about the whole affair is
the adroitness with which Prince Bis
marck has converted possible revolu-
ton into a pillar of the Empire. The
International Society clearly wished to
make the strike political one, and for
q time it twas feared. that a collision
between the authority of the Govern
ment and tho obstinacy of the working
men could not be prevented. But Bis
marck has refused to interfere with the
strikers, and whatever the Government
has done in the matter has been in the
interest of the operatives as against the
employers. The latest advices from
Berlin are to the effect that in addition
to the proposed legislation Of which
we spoke last week, providing for dis
tribution of excessive profits, the Gov
eminent will adopt, in its own work
shops, the hours of labor and the rates
Of pay demanded by the strikers, and
thus force other employers to do the
same. AS a result of this willy policy,
the workingmen, instead OF trying to
oyerturn the Government, as the fanat-
ical Internationals hoped, have become
stannch supporters of the Emperor and
his prime Minister. i g.. & &.

Some pressure has been brought to
bear upon the President to get certain
West Point cadets restored, who were
dismissed for "hazing." Tho President
very emphatically informed the party
who called on him that he would not
restore any of tho dismissed cadets.
To do so, he said, would impair the
efficiency OF the academy, and destroy
its discipline.

the pay for the work with great alacri-
ty, but when it comes to the work to
be done they would probably fail.

The town Of Charleston, the Kama
wha Valley, and indeed the whole State
of West Virginia has suffered a sad
loss by the death of II. CLAY DIcKIN-
son, announced by special dispatch this
morning. He was prominent men,
Der and type of class of citizens that
West Virginia can i'll afford to spare.
Possessed OF wonderful energy and
thorough personal acquaintance with the
capacities and the needs of the State,
and especially of that section in which
he resided, he has done much to advance
the material interests of the Kanawha
Valley and add to the wealth of the
entire community. He was a man of
fine education, cultivated taste, and
great personal popularity. The peo-
pie Of Charleston will unitedly mourn
him as a friend. There are no truer
nor larger hearted gentlemen in the
State than was CLAY DICKINSON, and
his death in the prime of his usefulness
and activity is calamity to be long
and deeply deplored. He was at the
time Of his death, President OF the
Kanawha Valley Bank, Mayor of the
City of Charleston, and prominent in
every work for the public good

The Parkersburg Tines wants to
have the Grand Jury system abolished
in West Virginia as it has been abolish
ed in Michigan and Wisconsin, and, we
believe, in some of the other Safes.
There is really much that is objection
able in the system as at present con-
Quoted and it is extremely doubtful
whether it is not more expensive than
useful. But just how or when our
neighbor of the Times hopes to see the
reform adopted in West Virginia with
out the agency of Constitutional Con
vention, we cannot quite see. While
advocating several measures of much
importance to the welfare and progress
of the State, the Times still keeps stand
ing in its columns that useless para
graph Down with the Convention in
iquity," &c. Before all the constitu-
tional changes that the Times and the
times demand can be made by amend
ment in the manner provided by joint
resolution Of the Legislature, the State
will be so far behind her sisters that
she will never be able to compete with
them in the race for wealth and power.
A Constitutional Convention is the only
feasible plan Of progress and reform.

Many, many people suffer from they

are not well. There sno name for 1t. 1t
issimply weakness breaking down Of the
vital forces. 'Thateverits causes, land they
are innumerable) its symptoms are in the
main the same. Among the most promi-
nent are extreme lassitude, loss OF appetite,
loss of flesh, and great mental depression.
Indigestion and stomach cough are also
frequently concomitants of this distressing
state OF body and OF mind. The common
remark in relation to persons in such a con-
ditlon Is. that they are consumptive. Now,
what these unfortunates really want is
,igor, ritdl strength; and, as certainly as
dawn succeeds darkness, they tah recuper-
ate their systems and regain perfect health
by resorting to Hos,etterS Celebrated Stom-
ach Bitters. 1t is as clear that a life-reviv-
ing tonic is required in such cases, as that
the dying flame of an empty lamp requires
to be revived with a new supply Of Oil.
Perfectly pure and innocuous, containing
nothing but the most genial vegetable ex-
tracts, and combining the three grand ele-
ments Of a stomachic, an Alternative, and a
genial invigorant. Hosetter's Bitters are
suitable to all constitutions, and are as ap-
plicable to the diseases and disabilities of
the feebler sex as to those of men.

only question in which President Grant
seems to be at all sensitive Genes

then goes on rather naively:
You will Remember that the impetu
Gus Andrew, in that little difference
over the War Department, said that our
friend Grant was a small man, intellec.
tually, and not reliable in the matter OF
veracity-in word, that he was stupid
and not to be believed. AS Andrew was
very unpopular at the time, and Grant
was regarded as the savior of the
country, great indignation was felt at
the attack, and we all joined in hooting
and abusing the poor Executive devil
for daring to intimate anything of the
kind, Gradually, however, since then,
the unpalatable fact has crept in upon
the public mind that Andrew was ight,
after all, and now the best friends of
the General, in the way of his defense,
admit the charges by saying that he is
well.meaning; that he intends to do
what is right; which means, YOU know,

A little scene occurred in the District
Court at Pittsburgh on Wednesday,
regarding the ojuror business. The
Post says 1t seems to be the most equita,
BILE idea, especially when connected with
the free government of a free country
that a man has a perfect right to

free soil of an American Republic.
In the District Court on Wednesday,
Charles c. Kelley, Of Lawrenceville,
was called to serve upon jury with q
negro named Wilson. Mr.. Kelley said
he had conscientious objections, and
begged to be excused. Judge Kirkpat-
rick informed him that he could not
comply with Mr. Kelley's..request. As
the law stands, HIS Honor has no other
alternative than to compel juror under
such circumstances to serve. Mr.. hel,
