OF Thousands do DOT return cent, and bear the

If any thing could add to the odum that le-
ultimately attaches to disorderly strikers, it
would be the manner in which the cigar makers,
now on strike 10 New York, treated the poor
girls, who, anxious to make an honest living, in
response to advertisements, applied for and OBJ
tanned the positions vacated by some Of them.
When the girls had given over work and de-
parted from the factory they were surrounded
by tie strikers, and some had their clothes torn
by them. The terrified creatures ran back to
their workshop and awaited for the police to

Mr.. Eobc,t Iugersol. to whom the President
has offered the German Mission, should be
compelled to pass through Bell county, Texas,
previous to Iii, departure. The citizens ofthat
county lately took Dr.. Russell, an old and re,
specied resident, barring his ntidety, from Ills
bed at night dragged him into the woods, tied
him to a tee. and gave him hundred lasbes
With raw hide. Previous TO the whipping
the spokesman Of the party said 1--WE kooW
you are an houest man and good physician,
but We will tolerate no infdel in Bell county;
so, by the help of God. We will stop your career
of in6deli,y" A written notice was posted on
the tree that iofdclity in Bell county would 10
the future be punished by hanging. The trlp
through that county might not change Mr.. To-
gcrsol's views on the subject OF Christianity,
bu. it would teach him that until he has s1mc.
thing better to propose 10 its stead his capacl-
ty for injuring humanity would be lcsscncd by
keeping his mouth closed on religious questions.
Considering Mr.. IIayess orthodoxy, the APP
pointmeot referred to is most Singular one,

gular than sone Of the others he has made
that is, if his expressions are to be received as
the correct import Of his Infections.

SUPREME COURT DEcIsIoN.-The New York
Lille Insurance Company w. Dlvis-Error 10
the Circuit Court for the Eastern District OF
Virginia-rhis was IN action On policy OF in.
surancc issued by the company upon the life Of
Sloman Davis, a resident of Petersburg, Va.
The last payment was made on the policy in
December, 1860. being the premium in advance
for the next ensuing year. Prior to the war
the company had an agent in Petersburg, and
premiums were paid to him in the usual way,
he giving receipts therefor signed by the actu.
airy, as provided in the margin OF the policy,
which were usually sent to the local agent about
thirty days in advance OF the maturity of the
premium. When the war broke out the agent
entered the Confederate service as major, and
remained 10 the service Until the close of the
war. Offer Of payment of premium, without
actual tender, was made to the agent in Deem
Der, which the agent declined to receive on &C.
count of the var, and similar offer was made
to the agent after the close. The plaintiff, as
assignee of the policy, claimed to recover on
the ground that at the close of the war the
policy revived. The G rt instructed the jury
that if the company inLdced the assured to be.
lleve that his premiums were TO be paid to an
agent at his residence, such conduct fixed the
place of payment Intended by the contract, and
that the absence Of tho receipt signed in the
usual way excused tho uon payment OF premi.
um. Also that while the agent could make no
new contracts of insurance by reason of the pro-
clamaton of non.intercourse, he was still the
agent of the company to receive money; and
that if, as such agent, he arranged with the as.
sured for the safe keeping of the money due
the company. the latter was bound by the ar
rauecmcut. The latter fact being shown, the
verdict was for the insured, and these instruc.
lions arc assigned here as error. !..
