Insurance Company of New York, states
that the company is perfectly solvent; that
the deficiency of over 81, 100000, as shown in
the statement of Superintendent Smyth, OF
the insurance department, was simply an or
ror in valuine of real estate and mortgages
thereon. The company values them at g,
100000, and the superintendent places them
at 81, 100000. The officers will object to
the appointment of a receiver, and ask for
the appointment of referee to examine in
to the company's assets.

London dispatches say that the adjourn
ment of the Greek Chamber means that ap-
prehensions of Greek participation in the
Russo-Turkish war will not, at least for the
present, be realized, which it is thought will
be welcomed by those who have feared the
failure of attempts to localize the war.
1t is further suggested as being
highly probable that British influence has
been the strong support OF the peace policy
in Greece, but not necessarily in Il manner
hostile to Russia, and possibly without the
the knowledge of the British Ministers.

lmously decreed to Messrs WIN. KNABE
& CO., The DIPOMA OF HONOR
and % EDAL Of MERIT for Concers
Grand, Parlor Grand, Square and Upright,

BY the system of awards adopted Pianos
of all grades received Medals of precisely
the same character, but the true test Of
merit appears only in the reports of the
judges accompanying the medals. The
Judges pronounce the Knube Pianos to be
the best opponents Of the art of Piano makino
and fully entitled to the leading position
combining all the requisites Of perfect m
strument in the highest degree: pover, RICH
ness and singing quality Of tone, ease and elias
ITCHY Of touch, effectiveness Of action sozidity
and originality Of construction and e2ceNence
Of craftsmanship. The Knabe award is not
confined to any single style of instrument
as is the case with other exhibitors IN this
department. but comprises ALL FOUR
STYLES, and stands unvuaifed by phrases
indicative of mediocrity.

A SvindlfnS Operation.

A villainous transaction has just been
has been v;ctimized out of $500. Mr. Dan
iel Jones was approached few weeks since
by a stranger who offered for sale 5000
mortgage on farm property in Columbia
county with some interest accrued We
believe Mr.. Jones sent for an abstract of he
property, aud finding it all right struck up
a bargain for the mortgage, paying $500
for it, The stranger left with his money,
and the next thing in order was to notify
the person against whom the mortgage was
held that the interest was due. But the
mortgagor denied all knowledge of ever
giving a mortgage on his property and de-
clared the instrument a fraud. 1t was
found that no such notary AS signed the
mortgage was in existence, and The name
of the witness was also fictitious clearly de-
veloping a swindle of the first order Mean
while the man Who disposed of the mortgage
could not be found, as plenty Of time had
elapsed for him to get out of reach. The
entire innocence Of the party on whose
property the mortgage was given is ques-
toned, and it is thought be may be in
plcated in the trans action, although his
intimate friends asset that be is entirely
free from any part or lot in the matter. 1t
is to be hoped that the parties perpetrating
his swindle may yet be brought to justice.

Beaver Dam has Just been the scene of an
attempt of abortion that has caused great
excitement in this locality On Wednesday
last Mrs. Hattie Andree, young.lady mar
ried some months, died very suddenly, and
suspicious of foul play having been aroused,
coroners inquest was held the next day,
at which the doctors. who had made post
mortem examination, testified that deceased
came to her death in consequence OF an at
tempt of abortion by instruments, she being
some threevmonths advanced in pregnancy.
Other testimony left no doubt that the at
tempt had been made by Mrs. Mary b
Woodwork, of Oak Grove, and she was
consequently arrested and brought 10 Bea-
yer Dam. An examination WAS waived and
the prisoner placed under $5,Ooo2 bonds to
appear at the February term of the Circuit
Court. The accused is we'll known as the
wife of Mr.. A. B. Hopkins, of Beaver Dam,
and the principal actor in several law suits,
Que Of which is now on trial in the County
Court.
The County Court resumes its session on
Tuesday. 1t has been in session almost
continually for two months.

that the verdict was just one, it will
probably be- reversed on technicalities and
