Rfsolred, That while we recall with a just

bill providing for the back-pay and increase OF

it has been among the most successful OF any IN
the history of our government.

Rev. DR.. Field, Editor of the New York

"Among the largest companies in the United
States is the Equitable Life Assurance Society
whose immense new building of solid granite
towers up so grahdly on the corner of Cedar st.
and Broadway. Being ourselves insured in
this company, as well as elsewhere. we had the
best reason for inquiring whether it was equally
safe. We did not take any official report, but
determined to investigate for ourselves. To
this end We have spent some days in the Offices
of the company, examining its ways of doing
business, and looking over its books and its Sc
%curities. The result of this personal examina-
ton, although 1t has been somewhat laborious,
has been worth oil that it cost. since it has
more than satisfied us as to the security of our
own little Investments, in the form of policies,
which we have set aside as n sacred deposit for
our families when we are gone.

In our issue ofthe 81 inst. we stated
that VIC had heard intlmatiops that the
Patrons of Husbandry in Vermont would
not support the regular nominees for
State officers or Congressman at the CON-
lug elections, any man not a farmer or a
Patron, and that such intimations must
have originated with persons who felt un-
friendly to the order and wished to retard
its progress or with those who were unac-
quainted with its fundamental principles,
and that we knew of no good reason why
the regular nominees for State officers and
members of Congress, by the respective
parties, could not be supported at the
polls with the same uuanimity as if tie
word Granger had never been heard. But
since the convention Of the 18th inst. We
have been accused of having either mis-
tated or misjudged, and that our state
ment then was erroneous or unreliable /;
but We are unwilling and respectfully de-
cline to acknowledge any such error or
misstatement, fer VIC have yet seen no ev-
ldencc that there will be any effort made
at the election to defeat the regular NOM
inces for the officers mentioned. 10 re-
ply to the argument that if the Patrons
use the influence of their order for po-
litical purposes in town and county mat
tiers, they will quite naturally use such
influence to effec, the more important Of
fces,-we soy that we know of no coun-
ty in this State where the majority OF any
subordinate Grange encourages an attempt
to use the influence of their order to de-.
feat the regular nominees of any political
party, nor do we know of but one county
where even minorities or individual Is have
deemed it proper or advisable to suggest
using the strength of their grange for po-
litical purposes and VIC have no DOUBT
that such individual indlscretions (if any
there be) has been Influenced or magnifed
by outsiders. 1t is true that a county
convention of Changers has been called
and held at this place and it is also true
that it is publicly reported in this vicinity
that the convention appointed a committee
to call a meeting to nominate county Of
6cers, under the name ola Farmers Con-
v%ention, and it is doubtless true that out.
siders have understood by what they have
been allowed to hear at the preliminary
meetings on the organization of Oranges,
that the rules, regulations and organic
laws of the order, expressly excluded aud
shut out all political action from their
meetings; but the convention was not
composed of chosen delegates, nor did
such call mention any political action,
under which circumstances we fail to see
any good reason why the order can be
justly censured, or the several Oranges IN
the county held responsible for the acts of
such convention, whatever they may have
been, aud W believe that judgement
should be reserved until it may be shown
that the order justi6es the wrong acts of
its members or permits its influence to be
diverted frem its proposed or legitimate
purpose. Societies are very scarce that
can truthfully boast of having no imper-
feet members, yet many societies with
some imperfect members prove of great
value in the community.
