LEGISLATURE.

Williams Address to the Impe rial
Legislature.
BERLIN, Oct. 16.-The Emperor William
to-day opened the sessions of Reichsrath in
person. He began his address with a re-
view of the past session of the North Ger
man Parliament and of the course of German
unitication; the progress Of this important
policy, and the present condition of united
Germany, he considered eminently favOra-
BILE and gratifying. Passing from this to the
topics to be considered by the present ses-
sion, he said that its chief care would be the
consideration of the budget for the Empire.
The advances made by the several States
of the Confederation must be paid out of
the funds received from France as indem-
nifty. The budget must include the expense
Of settling the government of the territory
acquired from France. The Emperor ex-
pressed the opinion that a reorganization
Of the coinage of Germany is desirable. He
said the Federal Council was at this time
engaged in devising measures for the estab-
lishment of a gold coin basis for uniform
system of German coinage. He also pro
posed as subject ripe for discussion, the
securing of line of direct communication
through Switzerland to Italy, to be con-
trolled throughout in the interests Of Ger
many, which would be fairly considered.
Abiding to the foreign relations of the
Empire he said that such relations were en-
tirely satisfactory. There was no cause for
anxiety in any quarter, and especially there
was a correspondence with Austria of a
cordial nature, and intercourse with that
country was no longer shadOwed by the
"reminiscences of past conflicts.

Brigham Young PIead< Not Guilty

Brigham Young PIeadS Not Guilty.
SALT LAKE, Oct. 16.-Brigham Young
appeared in court this morning. When the
indictment for lascivious cohabitation was
read to him, and upon the usual question
of the clerk. he answered with marked Sc
i. robustness, aNot guilty." The court room
was but moderately crowded, and there was
no excitement. Brigham seemed much
improved in health and confident in man
b ner.
In the case of the Mayer, Daniel Howells,
on a similar charge, the reading of the in
dictment was waived and after the title of
the case was announced he too plead guilty.
The defendants counsel moved the court to
continue the cases until next term. The
prosecution opposed it, but they said they
were willing to give the defendants all the
time necessary for preparation for trial.
The motion was not acted upon but viii be
taken up at an early day, probably tomorrow.
Salt Lake is still working in aid Of Chicago.
Grace Greenwood lectured most eloquently
last night to crowded house for the suffer-
ers, tonight benefit at the Theater, to-
morrow night Ladies Sociab'e, next night

THE INSURANCE COMPANIES.
Results Of the Chicago ConhagratiO

Results of the Chicago COnhagratiOn.
NEW YORK, Oct. 16.-The meeting of
Insurance Presidents to-day was attended
by about fifty. Mr.. Miller, State Superin-
tendent of Insurance, addressed them, say
ing if any were compelled to go into liquida-
ton, he would do the best he could to pro-
tect the interests of insurers and stockhold-
ers, but he wanted frank and candid state
ments of their condition. He thought the
losses by Chicago would be but small per
centaee to the citizens of this State.
President Oakley stated that he had re-
turned from Chicago, and he considers the
losses there under estimated. The Chica-
90 companies will not pay more than 10 or
Is per cent of their liabilities. He stated
that all New York companies would pay
their losses.
A receiver is appointed for Fulton Fire
Insurance Company of Brooklyn, which
one of the stockholders swears became
insolvent owing to the Chicago fire. The
Phoenix Company, Brooklyn, adjusted
its loss by the Chicago fire by draft sent to
Hart, Allen & Co. The Board of Directors
of the Home Insurance Company, Seri-
ously adopted resolution to fill up the
capital stock TO two and half millions
at the earliest practicable moment. This
will restore the Home Company's assets
| to nearly, if not quite four millions, after
! every cent of the Chicago fire losses are
paid. The Manhattan Company, which
| has announced suspension expects to meet
| its losses. The Continental have lost about
amillion, being much less than their sur
plus, they have doubled capital and after
paying losses will have assets of two mil
! lions for new huSireSs
Superintendent Miller will, tomorrow, is
sue circular calling upon all New York
! insurance companies to report under oath
the extent of losses at Chicago and present
] standing.
HARTFORD, CoNS., Oct. 15.-The Put.

MADAM BOEAPARTE.

The ex-Empress Eugene contributes 20
the political speculations now distracting
France in the interregnum of the Assem-
bly,. The part now ASSIGNED to her is that
of a second DucheSse de Berri, and her
visit to Spain is represented merely as a
T1tse, the purpose of which is to enable her
70 cross the Pyrenees and arouse the peas
ants OF Languedoc and La Yentiee, Ru-
NOR also assigned Gen. Douay to the
management of the affair in Paris. The
mere existence of such a belief demon
strates that public opinion ascibes en-
tirely different qualities to the ex-Em-
press from those which George Sand is
now airing in her published diary; for the
woman who would even initiate the deter
mined, energetic and talented Duchesse
Is not the painted nOnentity pictured by
Madame Dudeyant. In the present fever
ish condition of France even this story is
unworthy of notice; for it is undeniable
that a reaction favorable to the Empire is
taking place. The worknen do not hesi-
tate to express desire for another revo-
luton, and TO add their preference for Bo-
napartism rather than the present order
of things. The Emperor's portrait appears
In shop windows, aud they have ceased call
ing him names. A Vendeean instruction
might yet be carried to success bya woman,
If She had the qualities TO kindle the devo-
ton ofthe ardent peasants.
