THs LAWS OF NEW YORK STATE make
duellng murder. if death ensues and pun
ish it with imprisonment in the State prison
for ten years. if no death ensues. For send
ing challenge. or acting Is second or
surgeon in duel, the penalty is imprison-
ment not less than seven years. Every
person convicted Of fighting duel is also
made ineligible to any office, or post OF
trust or emolument. civil or military
These penalties apply to parties leaving the
State to fight, the same as if the duel takes
place within the State.
The penalty under the Maryland Statute,
if man kills or wounds his antagonist in
duel. is imprisonment for from D to Is
years.
We trust. but hardly expect, that the
laws will be rigidly applied to the case OF
the New York duelists. They are getting
plenty of notoriety-they should also get
some legal intamy from their reckless de-
fance of the laws Of God and man.

The eighth annual meeting of the Yer
mont Life Insurance Company was held in
the Directors room of the company, in this
city, at 10 O'Clock, Tuesday morning, Jan
uary 10th. The annual statement was read
by the President, James r. Hosmer. Esq,
and showed an improved condition OF IL
nances and increased business over last
year this, too. in the face of obstacles
hitherto unparalleled in the history OF life
insurance. For not only did the company
have to contend with the effects Of the gen.
eral financial depression, last year, in which
an extraordinary shrinkage of values OBJ
tanned, but the fact of an exciting political
campaign, and the failure of two prominent
New York life Offices which served as rivals
in The work of soliciting new business. The
assets of the company were increased to the
sum of Sls3, 90l.Ol.
Seven Directors were elected at this meet
ing, as follows James K. Hosmer, L. L.
Lawrence, j. W. Newton, W. A. Crombie,
Edward Barlow, Geo. S. Redfeld, of Chi
cago, and James c. Dunn. The Directors
holding over are: Torrey E. Wales, Samuel
Huntington, James A. Shedd, Russell S.
Taft, Nathaniel Parker, 10 d. Hatch. F. G.
Kennedy, Lawrence Barnes. Noah Allen,
B. S. Nichols. Daniel Roberts, William G.
Shaw. Edward P Mudgett, William W.
Henry. Joel Ii. Gates. Aug. N. Currier.
At subsequent meeting Of the directors
the following gentlemen wero elected Off
GERS
President-Jsmes r. Hosmer
Vice President-Russell S. Taft.
Secretary-Warren Gibbs.
Medical counsel-Wslter Carpenter, NJ.
D.; A. P. Grinnell, NJ d.
The following committees were elected
Executive Committee-Russell S. Taft.
VIM. W. henry. 10 ID. Hatch, James A.
Shedd, Edward Barlow,
Auditing Committee i B. S. Nichols,
Daniel Roberts.
The policyholders are to be congratulated
upon the excellent showing of their sterling
company. The management is evidently in
able and iudIcious hands, and the fact that
the Hon. R. S. Taft was elected Vice-Presi-
dent demon strates the undated interest
that gentleman shows in the progress and
growth of the company of which he was one
OF the most conspicuous founders. The cit
liens Of Darlington have good reason to be
proud Of its sound and honest homo insti-
tuition
