The despair Of the present political
situation in the South is inequality Of
representation. But for negro suf-
frage, the Southern States would have
only about l0i or los Electoral votes,
instead of lbs. In the days Of slavery
in making up the basis of representa-
ton, three-fifths of the negroes were
counted, and even then on the
Northern basis of representation, the
South had twenty votes more than her
fair porportion; now that all the ne
groes are counted, the colored popula-
tion gives the South thirty-three or
thirty-four votes in the Electoral Col
lege and the same number in the
House Of Representatives, thus max
ing the representation still more I'M
fair. The unfairness amountr to abso-
Lutte fraud when ii is considered that
the excess of the power over the North
has been obtained by terrorism and
political Acknowledgement, and that
Tilden, II he be elected President, can
only be elected by votes representing
q portion of the people who are abso-
lutely denied any political rights
BY every condition of fairness and
Justice, either the blacks should be al
lowed to vote according to their senti-
ments, without fear or restraint, or
the whites of the South should cease to
claim a double representation, to
which they are not entitled politically
legally or morally.

One Of our weil-known insurance
agents directs our attention to some
important life insurance decision. re-
Gently made, some which were com
piled by an actuary for the Financial
Chronicle. The United States Supreme
Court has ruled, in a case sent VI
from Iowa, that an insured person
who fails, even through causes beyond
his control. to pay his premium, for.
feits his Insurance, but is entitled ta
the equitable value Of the policy a.
paid up, and can recover this value in
the courts. the Supreme Court o.
Massachusetts has decided that il an
insured party fails 10 pay stipulated
premium when due the policy il not
absolutely forfeited, but the com pany
must apply 81 per cent of the net value
of the policy as a single premium TO
extend insurance without lurther pay
ment.

Between 100 and 20.OpD alligator
skins are tanned yearly, which are
consumed BY boot and shoe manufac-
turers in every portion Of the United
States, as well a. exported to London
and Hamburg. The alligators former
ly came almost entirely from Loui.i-
ana, and New Orleans was the great
center Of business. The Florida
swamps and morasses are now the
harvest fields, and Jacksonville. In
that State, the great depot. The alli-
gators often attain length of Is to %
feet, and frequently live to a very old
age. The hides are stripped off. and
the belly and sides, the only portions
Mt for use, are packed in barrels, in
strong brine, and shipped to the
Northern tanner, who keeps
them under treatment for five or six
months, when they are ready to be
cut up. So far the leather has been
mainly used in the manufacture of
boots and shoes, but handsome slip
pers are also made oft.
