Investments. This Company, managed upon
principles of economy, offers the lowest rates of
Premiums, consistent with safety, and loaoer than
any other Company doing business in the State,
and its success is an established fact Its profits

the Policy holders additional to the Capital

The Lndea also says that it is fact, tina

West Virginia, through her Commission
ers, who did not take the trouble to obtain &C.

on the score of benefits received, claims that
she owes less than one million of the State

does tide-water Virginia owe ? Nothin &
for she has received DO benfits For whose
benefit were the two most costly works of
internal Improvement, the Chesapeake &
Ohio Railroad and James River & Kanawba

expended in West Virginia, but nearly the
whole cost Of these two works that, in real

She has had the same proportionate use Of

cans of this State addressed to Colonel
VIM. NJ. Grosvenor, chairman committee
Liberal Republican Convention of Mis-
souri,:
1--WE, Republicans of Illinois, wish to
express our concurrence in the princi-
pies lately set forth by the Liberal Re-
publicans of Missouri. We make de-
parture from the ordinary methods of
party action from deep conviction that
the organization to which we belong'is
under control OF those who will use it
chiefly for personal purposes, and OBJ
struct the free expression of opinion on
important matters. The time has come
when the political offenses of the past
should be pardoned; that all citizens
should be protected in the enjoyment OF
the rights granted them by the Constitu-
ton; that Federal taxation should be
imposed for revenue, and so adjusted
! as TO make the burden on the industry
of the country as light as possible; that
reform in the civil service should be such
as TO relieve political action from the
patronage of local governments; the
foundation of American freedom should
be reasserted, and encroachments of
Federal power checked. We also be-
lieve that at this time special duty
rests on the people to do away with GER
ruption in Office We accept the invita-
ton to meet in mass convention in Gin
cinnati on the first Wednesday in May,
and invite Republicans who agree with
us to cooperate in our action. For the
purpose OF securing a proper represen'
tation Of the State of Illinois, we sug-
gest that citizens of Illinois be present
at Cincinnati to select due portion OF
their number to represent the State on
the floor of the convention.

The postpenement of the Democratic
State Convention is a proposition that
Mr.. D. B. Thomas, chairman of the
Democratic State Committee, cannot
see, though he promises to see some of
the members on the subject. Mr.
Thomas own opinion is that the post
ponement will not be ordered. This set
ties the matter, but we think settles it
wrong. When the convention meets
political affairs will be in foam, frOth
and fog so thick that no man can see
through them. The fog bells will be ring
ing all over the land, and the din and
clatter of preparation will De deafening.

New YORK, April l7.--All the ar
rangemeuts are completed for the great
Republican mass meeting this evening.
Stands have been erected in the square
of the Institute, and prominent speakers
will address outsiders should the hall
be crowded.
A committee o. twenty-five, appointed
by the Liberal republican meeting at
Cooper Institute, Friday last, met yes
terday and formed a permanent ogani-
cation. F. A. Conkling, chairman Of
the committe, was appointed to arrange
with the Erie, New York Central, Pen
sylvania Central, and Baltimore and
Ohio railroads, for special trains to be
run through from New York to Cincin-
matt on Saturday and Monday, before
the convention.
The Times special from Washington
says the arms investigation ends to-day
with the examination OF Secretary Bel
KNAPP by Schurz.
The custom-house commissioners held
meeting Saturday morning, but it is
not probable that any more witnesses
will be summoned.
A Washington special to the Tribune
says: at is understood that the reply
of our Government to Earl Granville is
now prepared, and will go out in to-day
steamer. A copy of the American sup
Elementary case, or. replication to the
British case, was read by Secretary Fish,
Monday or Tuesday, and laid before
the Cabinet at meeting yesterday, but
was not discussed. 1t is considerably
shorter document than the case proper. "
The Tribune's special also says: 1t
is pretty clear that the bill Mr.. Dawes
reported yesterday does not receive the
unqualified approval of one member of
the ways and means committee. Dawes
leaves for his home in Massachusetts to-
day"
Secretary Boutwell, informed Collector
Arthur that the invoice, only, instead
of the bill Of lading, the manifest and
invoice, as heretofore, will be sufficient
hereafter to pass goods destined inland.
Delays to merchants in Philadelphia,
Chicago, Cincinnati and other cities have
been greatly increased by the necessity
of waiting return of the bill of lading
to New York before they could have
their goods shipped. aa-43

wrALrH OF THE UNITED STATES.

Advance sheets from the report of the
Superintendent Of the Census shows that
the actual value of property in the United
States Exclusively Of that belonging to
the government is almost thirty thou
sand millions, and it is assessed for tax
alton at little less than half that sum,
$l4, l7s, 1886, 1872. OF this amount the
real estate makes up rather more than
two-thirds. New York is the richest
State, with sixty-fve thousand millions
of property, and after her come Penn
sylvania, three hundred and eight thou
sand millions; Ohio, Massachusetts, and
Illinois, each having over two thousand
millions: and Indiana and Missouri, each
over one thousand millions. Nevada is
returned as the State OF least property,
with Oregon and Florida following in the
order named, from the bottom OF the
scale. Distributing these sums among
the whole population, it is found that the
wealthiest States are as ruie' '"ose
which surround the great cities, begin
ming with New York and including Mas
sachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island,
California, Pennsylvania and New Jer-
sew, in the order named In these States
the property amounts to more than one
thousand dollars per head. Next come
the older Western States-Ohio, Illinois,
Indiana, Missouri, Iowa, Wisconsin and
Michigan, the border States. of Mary
land and Delaware, and the two New
England States of New Hampshire and
Vermont. These, with the mining State
of Nevada, have more than six hundred
dollars for each inhabitant. The list
closes with Alabama and Texas, with
about two hundred dollars to each in
habitant.

LONDON, April l7.-The Times this
morning editorially discusses the situa-
ton concerning the Geneva arbitration,
and very emphatically declares that
England has not committed herself to
arbitration. 1t also states, evidently
upon authority, that if the claim for
couseq uential damages is persisted in
by the United States, and not with
drawn ON or before the 10Th of June,
England on that date will formally with
draw from the conference.
