A war correspondent of the London
NcoUS describes the Cossack as Il very I'M
savory gentleman. But Galatz is n fine
place, he adds, for taking the edge off ones
sensibilities regarding smells; and one
can getto windward of the Cossack, which
is more than one can do in regard to the
Galatz drains The Cossack is little
chap, about five feet five even on his high
heels, but at once sturdy and wiry. His
weather beaten face is shrewd, knowing.
and merry. His eyes are small, but keen !:
his mouth large, and between it and his
pug nose-rather redder than the rest of
his facets II tuil or wisp of straw .colored
mustachc. His long, thick, straight hair
matches his nfdstache in color, and Is cut
sheer round by the napc of his neck. Be-
low the neck the COssack is all boots and
great-coat He is more armed than any
man of his inches in Europe, and could
afford to lose Il weapon or two and yet be
an average dangerous customer. Weapon
number one is the long, black, llaglcss
lance, with its venomous head that seems
itching to make daylight through some
body. He carries II carbnc, slung in an
oilcloth cover, on his back the stock down
ward. In his het is Il long and well-made
revolver in leather case, and from the
belt hangs n curved sword with no guard
over its hilt. His whip completes his
personal appurtenanccs; he wears no
spurs. He rides, cooked up on ~ high sad
die with leathern band strapped over it,
a why little rat Of a pony.

Control of Insurance ComDauips.

The action of the National Life Insurance
Company of this place'in issuing guaran-
tee stock has been subject to more or less
criticism, and the statement of the officers
of the company and of the Vermont In
surance Commissioners, to be found on
the third page, will be read with interest.
The business of insurance in this coun-
try has grown to be one of the immense
interests of the land, and has risen steadily
in Importance for sixty years, though the
branch of life insurance has developed its
wonderful growth in the last half of that
period. The main fire insurance COM
panies of the country are stock companies
and of course in the control of the stock
holders.
The oldest of these companies may be
taken as examples of Il business founded
and built up and controlled by the same
men and managed in accordance with their
notions of things. Life insurance on the
other hand has run largely to the mutual
plan and each holder of policy has a
voice in the management.
This principle, right in itself and gen.
orally beneficial in its results, has been
subject TO abuse and it is notorious thai
some of the leading life insurance com
panies of the United States have beer
contended for as prizes by means o
weapons furnished unthinkingly by holder.
OF policies. For instance, salaries of oyel
$4,000 year are not raritics in large
New York companies and to obtain these
places it is not IN unheard of thing to fine
men appearing at the annual election,
with hundreds of proxies in their pockets
by which they propose TO vote themselve.
into management.
If we understand the statement of the
National Life, it is just this: to guarC
against the company's being captured by
the proxy system and 10 keep it in The
hands of the management that has built i
up, this guaratee stock was issued.
That the company has surplus of ovel
100000 above its reinsurance reserve
shows that it would be u very good com.
pany to wreck" by means of extravagan
salaries and other well understood meth
DDS of Insurance adventures. The presen
directors could wreck it in the same wa,
if they were of Il mind to 90 to stealing
But their management of the company
since its establishment, its present con
dition, and their character as men arc
good guarantees that their action was fol
just the reasons which are given elswhert
in the card of the officers to the policy
holders.

RIOT IN TIE New York CAPITOL The
failure of the New York Assembly to pass
the one million appropriation for the new
Capitol building, Friday night last, gave
rise to riotous proceedings on the part of
some four hundred working-men cOngre-
gated in the galleries. During the calling
of the roll on the question, the leaders OF
the two parties took advantage of the rule
which permits them TO ask excuses for vot-
ing and made brief stump speeches to the
galleries, directed to the end of making po-
litical capital on either side, which imllam-
ed the passions of those addressed and gave
them the character Of mob fit for any
mischief. They surged into the hall front
ing the executive chamber, and INDUCED
in speeches and yolls of Indignation against
the Governor. GIoans for Assemblymen
Spinola, Purdy. Grady, Mitchell and 9th.
ers were mingled with cheers for Hustled,
Harris, Alvord and the republican party.
Many members went through the side and
rear doors. Those who were recognized
were greeted with cheers or groans. Mr.
Chids, of Seneca. who had spoken against
overriding the veto, was attacked, and re-.
treated into the assembly chamber without
sustaining serious injury. Mr.. Graham, OF
Monroe. made IL speech commenting
moderation and advised the laborers TO
disperse. Aplatoon of police finally drove
them of. A squad Of police were guarding
the Governors residence and all entrances
to the capitol until midnight Detectives
and officers in citizens clothes were on
duty throughout the city, and Il large force
was stationed at the capitol Saturday to
preserve order,
