The Insurance Commissioner claims
that he was justified in excluding the Pro-
lection Life Insurance Company from this
State, which was spoken OF by Mr.. French
in this paper few days ago. Mr.. Nye
thinks the plan on which the company
does its business is not the correct one.
We take no part in the discussion as to
the merits of the company-that Is Tor
others to talk about, but the rejection OF
the company makes conspicuous the tact
that the Commissioner has a complete
despotic power in the matter OF rejecting
companies. From his decision there is no
appeal, even if he should reject COM
pany that is among the soundest and best
in the world This is feature of the In
surance law that might safely be so modl-
fled as to allow aggrieved companies the
right of appeal to somebody or some
board, when they feel that their cases de-
serve it. We do not know but that the
Commissioner has done just right in all OF
his reflections, perhaps it would have
been better if there had been more Of
them. All the people want is safe COM
panies.

The Vermont Legislature of 1874 adjourned
Wednesday morning, after an uncommonly
busy and pleasant session Of seven weeks.
The new South Carolina Legislature met at
Columbia Tuesday. The Hon. Robert r. Ell

in Congress to become a leader in the Legis-
lature, was elected Speaker of the House Of

Wade Hampton was an honored guest at the
Democratic celebration, in honor of the New
York election. His distinguished services to
the Democratic party, in bringing out the re-
bellion, in supporting it, and in his constant
adherence to the Lost Cause, when the South
generally gave up, have given him strong
hold upon the Democracy, and surely no one
has better right than he TO congratulate him
self upon an election which lifts the stars and
bars from the dust, and once more unfurls the
confederate flag to the airs of victory. En-
change.
The Providence Journal very candidly and
justly says:
"While the party lines are by no means
drawn upon the financial question, and al
though among the champions on both sides
are prominent men Of each party, still it is
plain that the strength of sound currency is
mainly with the Republicans, and the strength
of imitation mainly with the Democrats"
This is a very tar statement of the case.

Legislatures elect gives the following polti-
cal results:

The great Republican party has still album
dsnt vitality, and can easily cast forth the in
significant minority which is urging it on to
ruin, and will be the first to desert it when
that ruin is accomplished. If the defeat just
experienced fully arouses its dormant energies
for the work Of publication it will have
achieved grand result. If it does not, no
new party can spring full grown into power
and wrest the control from the hands of an
opposition thoroughly organized and trained
in all the strategy OF party warfare Boston

Messrs Fowler IIamlen 4 Smith of this city,
dry goods dealers, have now the largest establish
ment of the kind in the city, if not the largest On
the kennebec river. AS we have before stated,
they have leased the store adjoining their old stand
south, formerly occupied by Mrs. NJ d. Hodges,
which has been thoroughly renovated, and the two
stores now virtually one by means Of an arched
passage midway between the stores, and the entire
floor is new given up to the constantly increasing
retail trade Of this cntclprsing firm. In the south
apartment is kept ladies' and children's under
wearing apparel fannels, cloaks, shawls, prints,
gloves, hosiery, buttons, ribbons, embroideries,
laces, and all small wares usually found in first
class dry goods store. In the north apartment
the old storc-lnay be found dress goods of every
description shown in the Boston and Ny. markets
heavy wooens for gents and boys wear, cloak
ings, shcetings, blankets, etc. The combined and
beautifcd establishment has truly metropolitan
appearance, quite in contrast with the previously
crowded condition of the store. By keeping full
line of goods of first class quality this firm has
built up a trade that has finally eliminated in the
demand for more extended accommodations and
we glad that the propretors have had the
courage. 10 respond so handsomely to the popular
demand.

EARLY SowiNG.-A few bright,
warm days in April are sufficient to
bring on an attack of planting fever.
The garden must be spaded or plowed,
beds laid off, and in 60 the beets car
rots, parsnips; turnips, etc. They find
cold beds; the soil is packed over
them by repeated heavy rains; many
Of the seeds rot outright, or the slen-
der germs fail to lift the heavy soil
pressing upon them. 1t is far better
to leave off sowing until the soil is
warm and dry. a few of the hardy
plants, such as early peas: potatoes, on
ions, lettuce, radishes, spinach, ETC.,
may b: put in to advantage: perhaps,
during the month of April, but it is
better to wait for the main crop
sufficiently long to allow the earth
to become ':y, and somewhat warm
before planting. Seeds will then
come up quickly and grow rapidly and,
every one knows that quick grown
vegetable is far better than one which
it has taken q whole season to mature.
Beets for late Fall or Winter use will
be best when sown as late as even the
first or middle Of June.
