The Insurance Deposit"

On this subject we have no earthly bias
that might interfere with just view OF lts
merits. From the time the measure was in
troduced years ago into the Virginia Legisla.
ture We looked upon it as uncommerclal.
We regarded the act Of the State as the as
sumption of q relationship towards the citi-
zen rather outside of its proper province.
The interference, too was in matter in
which of all others the people are especially
astute and well-iDformed, and We know Of
no relation in life in which they less need q
guardian.
One light in which we especially consider
ed the measure unfortunate was the bearing
it might have upon our Interstate relations.
We are a confederation of States, and har-
nony is best preserved By avoiding all laws
that might have the appearance of inhospl'
tality to outside commerce. 1t Is asserted that
some States have passed retaliatory deposit
laws especially applicable to Virginia, and
our particular regret at such retaliation is
that it cones from some of our sister States
of the South.
If the State Is to undertake any Interior
ence with the insurance business we cannot
see why it may not give completeness and
efficiency TO its intervention by becoming
itself the insurer for its people, after the
plan of Governor WISE, and tax foreign
corporations to the degree that will exclude
Them altogether.
1t is bad for us that our "depOst" law
subjects our own "home companies" as
they are called, to hardships, and it is yet
worse for our people that through the de
posts with other States required of those
companies large fund is Withdrawn from
this city, where it would be most beneficial

r,o M,xea Basis of Representation.

The Mixed Basis of Representation.

ceedipgs of the House of Delegates on wen.
nesday, printed in yesterdays O'spd'cn' 'na'
AR SMART withdrew his proposed amend
mon, IN the Constitution for establishing
,,,;xed. basis for representation. dc sta'eo
tina, in doing this he yielded to the earnest
exposition which had been manifested 70
wards the proposition; but aVo~eo toas Il
.,,h,dies his own views and contained
priaciple tina: pervaded the Code oil qlrglnia'
The conservative principle Is indiSpensa-
bile for al good government. A thorough
democracy cannot long endure in any land.
Conservatism must be blended with the laws;
and the basis of representation Is certainly
not the leas: part Of the government Which
may be benefited BY its introduction.
Mr.. SruART's basis Of population and taxa
ton blended would be one way OF fairly in'
dlcating the interests Of the community that
should be protected in legislation. We should
think that a statesman could hardly give II
a calm consideration without arriving at the
conclusion that it was pretty accurate way
of arriving al the just basis Of representation
for the protection of the general interests oil
the State.
It was Mr.. STUARr's limitations upon
this basis to which we objected. We sug'
eested that Mr.. STUART probably incor-
porated those limitations with bis amend.
ment more for the purpose Of obylatins op'
position from one cause and another
especially prejudice--than anything else.
But he found the concessions far from salts
flying the House. Some objected to IL Tor the
concessions to prejudice, whilst the demo-
cratic notions of Others could not be recon
cled to its decided conseI vatism. And we
do not mean the Democratic party IN usirg
the term democrat. The most ultra demo-
Gratis we ever saw were not classed With
members oftRe Democratic party.
We syppathzs with Dir. STUART 10 MS
conservative principles, and regret that gene
rally they find far too little favor IN TINS
country. Were they more popular, and hao
they mere life 10 our laws, we should have
stronger faith in the endurance of republl-
canism in this land, and know that there
would be better order and more content
ment amongst the people.
p. S.-Snce the above was put into type
We have received from Dir. STUART a letter
which We shall publish tomorrow.

A City EHJolNEp !-JUDGE BOND NHEDs nc
FORCE BILL.-Several negroes have applied
to Judge BOND, of the United States Circuit
Court, for an injunction restraining the
proper officers from registering voters, hold
ing an election, &C., in Wilmington, N. c.
These negroes say:
"That by the terms of said act Of 1875 the
city is SO divided into wards that the first
ward contains about three hundred voters,
of whom about one hundred are colored, and
the remaining two hundred are white per.
sons; the second ward contains about two
hundred and fifty voters, of whom about
seventy.fiVe are colored, and the remaining
one hundred and seYenty-fYe are white per-
sons; and the third ward Is made to com.
prise about three thousand voters, about two
thousand two hundred of whom are CO.
lored, and the remaining eight hundred are
white persons"
This is bu. small part of their petition,
We! it contains the gist of it. However, it
matters not what the complaint is. The
wonderful thing is to see Federal Judge
entertaining such petition; yet here is
Judge BoED's endorsement
