LAST week we published a short
item to the effect that the State Super
intepdent of Insurance had revoked
tho certificate of the American Insur-
ance Company, of Chicago, Illinois,
to do business in this state, and that
there were a number of the policies
of this company in force in Andrew
county. We notice that under date of
March, 18th, Superintendent Price has
issued to the company a renewal GER
tiicate of authority to do business in
this state.

Ineffable Democratic Meanness.
(Chicago Tribune1


The ineffable of the Demo-
| cratic partisans who would fastcn the
crime of Secretary Belknap and his wife
ON the Republican party is almost be
yond comprehension. Instead of feel
ing sorrow and shame Mt the national
disgrace, the r,alignants gloat over it and
rub their hands together in great glee.
"This makes a sure thing of New
Hampshire and Connecticut for the
Democrats, say they, with IL chuckle of
delight, A confederate member o Con-
gress ftly rebuked a gang of these par
tisans who were rejoicing in his pres
ence at the prospective injury the cx-
posure of Belknap would inflict on tho
Republicans. Said he: 1.-THE Repub-
lican party is no more responsible for
Belknap-s bribery than Southern ladies
are for the blackmail his Kentucky wife
levied on the suffer-" If parties or Sec
tons are to be charged with their guilt,
the South and the Democracy must share
it with the North and the Republicans.
Belknap was always a democrat--went
into the war one, came out me- was
promoted one, and was n when he
fell. But we feel as bitterly over the
disgracefu! cause of that fall as it he had
been born and lived a Republican.
He was IN American. n patriot. a brave
man, and until he yieldedto social temp
%tation, an honorable and an honest man:
His crime and disgrace reflect on us all

From the ". Y. Observer, of the l6th.l
St. Patrick's Day comes tomorrow.
For some hours the streets of the city in
the busiest part of the day will be block
cd up, trade will be compulsorily s,ls-
pended, thousands of dollars lost by the
people that foreign element may DC
paraGed before the public to show its
power.
But. in spite of it's anti-American teel-
ing and action, we have always been
pleased to have this procession once Il
year, because it pcrpetuates the knowl-
edge of the fact that we have in the
midst of usa tremendous force of men
who do not seek to amalgamate with
the American sentiment, but retain, for
their own purpose Il distinct, antago-
nastc, Irish organism. So long as this
linues as n religious, sectarian and
un-American society among us, just so
long will the Protestant Irish hail the
Orange as their distinctive color and
make the 18th OF July the festive and
professional anniversary of their tri-
umphs. and the occasion for the reasser-
ton Of those principles and liberty which
Popery stamps out wherever it has
power, and Professionalism nourishes and
transplants, that they may fill the earth
with freedom and Christianity. And so
it comes to pass, that on the 18th of
March annually marches the troops of
Popery through the streets of IN Amer
lean city. with music and banners, re-
ioicing in the freedom they would never
give to others, and making the highest
possible demonstrations OF the glory of
that Protestant liberty which allows even
its enemies to drink full draughts of its
living waters while they themselves
would take the lives, il they could, of
Protestant Irishmen celebrating their
chosen holiday.

JUDGE HILL of lafayette Circuit Court,
at a recent session of the court. charged
the grand jury that it was their duty to
indict all mon who shirked their duty
as a good citizen by making false re-
turns to the value of their personal
property, and twelve prominent citizens
were indicted.
The same policy we think SHOULD be
carried out in every county in the State,
and we think good results would follow.

Last evening Officer Nicholson brought to
the Fifth precinct station a colored man named
Manual Lacy, who stated that he had been
shot in the arm by a white man, and that the
ball still remained. The injured man showed
evidences of having drank quite freely that
day, and told his side of the story in very
disconnected manner. He said that he was
coming along the public highway outside the
District line, and met q white man riding in a
wagon. The man said something TO which he
replied, and finally in their word-battle he
threw q stone at the man, who drew a pistol
in turn and fired, the ball entering his arm.
He appeared little concerned about the wounl,
and was advised to see a physician and have it
dressed, which he promised to do as he de-
parted from tie station house. The county
police think there is q different and more i'm
Portant story about the case, which they are
trying TO uuraVel.
