The apparent excess OF expend..
iturcs over receipts in the Treas
ury statement for December,
Amounting to about one and half
millions, is owing to the fact that
the receipts from tie month from
the bank tax, about three million
{ dollars, were not included in the
statement Of reccipte. The croak-
ers cannot therefore citc the figures
to show that the country is pro-
crossing toward bankruptcy by ex-
pending public moneys faster than
they are collected. The figures
show the contrary to be the fact.
/ The great Improvement that has
taken place in the credit of our
Government since the close Of the
civil war is illustrated by facts late
ly submitted by the Secretary Of
the Treasury before . Congress
sional Committee. MIR. Boutwell's
statement was that English consols
could not be sold on the Continent.
France sold her 5 per cent. loan for
81, and Germany and Russia sold
theirs below par. The United States
5 per cent, loan went at par. The
reason why Enplish consols sold
higher than American securities in
London was that all trust funds In
England were required by law to
be invested in them, thus creating
avery great home demand.

Public Conscience Awakened.

The conviction Of Stokes for the assas-
sinatiop Of James Fisk, Jr., il IN impor-
tant event in the history of the criminal
Jurisprudence Of this country. 1t is al
together exceptional, and marks not
only change for the better in the
practice of courts but . revolution of
public sentiment upon the subject Of its
relation TO crime. In other words, So
ciety begins to discern that it is respon-
stole, not only for the character of the
laws enacted, but for their due and pro-
per execution. IS Business cir
cles require cleansing every whit as
much as the courts of law. For every
murderer suffered to escape by the lat
ter, ten men guilty Of frauds ON the Ex-
change, 10 the railway boards Of direc-
ton, and in every avenue Of trade and
commerce, have been spared the Just
sting of an accusing public sentiment.
The well-being Of society, the good Of
every community, and the salvation Of
the State, as imperatively demand that
these should be visited with the indigna-
ton and scorn Of all honest men and
punished to the full extent of the law,
rs that murderers should be brought to
the penitentiary or the gallows.
1t is time to inaugurate an era Of
memorable justice. Mercy to the viola-
tor Of law, whether high or low, whether
the offense be great or small, civil or
criminal. is injustice to society and ruin
to the State. So long as public opinion
fails to condemn, the courts will fail to
punish but when whole communities
point the finger Of scorn 1t the perpe-
TRAITOR of every gride Of offense sgainst
the laws, no guilty man can run the
gauntlet Of the ministers Of justice.-In-

The exceptionally hard expert
emce which the FIRE insurance inter-
ests of the country has had to en-
counter during the last year or two,
or since the Chicago confagration,
has not been without compensatory
influences. It has, for instance
served to check ruinous competi-
6on, impel q closer scrutiny of
risks, and necessitate an advance Of
rates to the paying point The as
sured wants security, as absolute as
he can purchase it; and experience
has probably taught him that as it
is not compatible with low rates
profered by the sscut-under" COM
panies, SO many of which have been
forced to the wall in consequence OF
carrying more sail than ballist. I'm
derwriters have doubtless discover
ed that there is a limit of safety at
which rates are infexibly fixed by
the current laws of risks; and they
are perfectly right in advancing to
that limit; and establishing them
selves there firmly.
It is for the interest of every par
ty insured to pay sufficient premium
to enable insurance companies to
insure safely-that is, to do the
business with almost the certainty
of a moderate profit. Without this
profit the capital is finally eaten
away and the company goes to the
wall. The Chicago and Boston dis
asters call quite as much for more
intelligent discrimination in the
classification of risks as for an ad-
vance in rates. Insurance compa-
MES under a new adjustment, must
pay an indirect premium, by way
Of concessions, for Prevails solid
division walls, iron shutters of prop
er thickness, fire-proof roofs, and
for all improvements which ENTER
into first class structures. There
will be sharper questioning than
ever before touching the ability OF
insurance companies to pay not
only ordinary losses, but extraor-
binary ones. The greater tho ca,
lamity the greater the necessity on
the part of the citizen, of the most
perfect indemnity against loss. Ere
has demonstrated the inadequacy
of even the best measures to con
front it successfully, under excep
tional conditions whose existance
is beyond human control; and the
Boston disaster, following 80 close
" upon that of Chicago, was 9
startling summons for the insur
ance companies to review their po
sition with searching care, with an
eye to the essential element ofsecur
ity for either side. A rapid survey
of the situation has enabled then
to meet the requirments of the
time, and the lessons of the lates
disasters will probably not be lost
upon the managers of these institu
tions.

stokes Sentenced to be- Hanged
Jan. 7th.

New YoaK, Jan. 6.-Stokes was
brought into the Oyer and Termin-
er Court this Morning to receive
his sentence. MIR. Tremain, of his
counsel made an address in rela-
ton to q bill of exceptions to the
Judges rulings, which he proposed
to offer.
The prisoner was then asked
what he had to say why sentence of
death should not be passed. Stokes
thereupon said he had not violated
the law Intentionally; that the testi-
mony upon which he was convicted
was manufactured and perjured.
Judge Boardman then, in feel
ing address, in which he alluded to
the prisoners youth and social sur
roundings, sentenced the prisoner
to be hanged on Friday, the 28th
day of February next, being the
shortest time that could be allowed
the convicted man.
Stokes counsel were in consulta-
ton last evening. They were great
" surprised at the verdict, and ex-
pressed their purpose Of applying
at once for stay of proceedings,
and ultimately, if possible, to seel
another trial.
It seems that the lawyers regard
the newspaper and public clamor o
bout the prevalence of murderous-
ness as partly responsible for the
adverse verdict. They should have
deferred the trial of the case at this
time, but for the demads of the
prisoner and his relatives.
The witnesses in the Stokes cas-.
confined in the House of Detention
q year, have been discharged.

EarIham Gossip.

DEAR PALLADIUM:
A yearning desire has long ex-
listed within me, ''and latterly with
increasing weight that I might
furnish you with a talk about Earl
ham and it's inmates. Now, per
haps, some of your readers are
aware that Earlham College is sit,l-
ated in the region west of Rich
mond, about fifteen minutes drive
from the city. This is the spot
where is copyrighted much talent
from all parts of the Union, In or
der that it may receive instruction,
and be fitted for entering the arena
Of active life.
Earlham has opened this term
with flattering prospects, and bids
fair to be as successful as any pre-
ceeding term. About one hundred
and forty students have already put
in an appearance, and quite num-
Der of applicants have not yet ar
rived The Senior Class this year,
is the largest that has been at the
College since the beginning. The
Junior Class is not quite so large in
numbers, but there is no discount
On the members, and we think with
one more years toll, they will pre-
sent es nice an appearance as amy
body of graduates in the country.
The Sophomores, we think do not
deserve the name Sophomore in it's
literal Specification, for they are all
sharp, good looking, and, as body,
present a fine appearance. And the
Freshmen What shall we say OF
them? verify our pen doth culver as
we reflect that we can but half do
them justice! They have the larg-
est class in the College department
and give fair promise OF a large, In
telligent class, in the end, if they
but hold together.
Parvin Wright and lady hold the
Offices of Superintendent and Ma
tron this year, as successors of w.
T. Carpenter and lady. Uncle Par
win performs the duties of his of.
fee well and is generally liked by
the boys, and Aunt Mary is an es-
pecial favorite with all the students.
Well do they understand and ap
preciate the favors for which they
are indebted to her. Is it any won
der they Like her, when she gets uI
such oyster dinners as she did Last
termi And only this evening, such
good, warm biscuits as we had fol
supper! They were enough to ex
cite the admiration and TASTE OF the
most cold hearted Earlhamite thai
ever came to Richmond! We say
God bless Aunt Mary! and may
she long live to superintend the
the cooking department of Earl
ham.
Nothing new in the way of excite
ment, except now and then q way
ward boy is made to confront tn
Faculty, to answer for his misde
meanors. Coasting and otbal
are the popular games at East Earl
ham, going up the walk the popu
lar game at West Earlham.
