NEW HAT.
The old Madison" recognizes the
fact that the people Of the West have
generally become dissatisfied with the
Mutual system, and prefer to know what
they are to pay. For this reason the
name and style is changed to Madison
Fire Insurance Company.
1t has added 100000 paid up capital
to its other assets, and embarks in
modest way in general insurance bu-
siness.
1t will continue to deserve public pat.
ronage by promptness and liberality.
We have reduced our amount at risk
and increased our surplus. We shall
continue to write at as low rates as ,cM
ray, but shall not write for less, as no
Policy will be issued that cannot be re-
deemed.

THE EASTERN QUESTION.

The most important event of the last
week connected with the Eastern gues-
ton is the removal OF Ahmed Vefyk
Efendi by the Sultan from the Turkish
Cabinet and the appointment of Sadyk
Pacha as Grand Vizier, which caused
great CONSERVATION at the British Foreign
Office. So long as Effendi, who was
friendly to an alliance with England, re-
mained in the Cabinet, England had but
little TO fear from the danger of an alli-
ance between Russia and Turkey, as
every step looking to such an alliance
was at once communicated to the British
Minister. Sadyk Pacba, as we'll as Os.
man and Reouf Pachas, favors q Russo.
Turkish alliance. This evidently gives
to Russia, in the settlement of the ques.
tionB arising from the San Stefano
treaty, great advantage over England,
which her statesmen are not slow to re-
aliGe. Notwithstanding the efforts of
diplomacy to aettle tho difficulties arising
out of the conquests of Russia, both Rus
sic and England are making great prepa-
-rations for war. England has ordered q
large force from India to Malta, and
Russia 10 concentrating large force near
Constantinople.
The latest news is that England and
Russia have agreed TO q simultaneous
withdrawal Of the British fleet and Rus
sian troopa from the vicinity of CONSTANT
nople. This may open the way for q
uiseting Of Congress to settle the ques.
tions at issue, but it settles nothing. 1t
seems likely that this scheme for the
withdrawal of the fleet and troops will
&c defeated, IS the iiihonities encounter.
ed in settling the details of such with.
drawal are not yet removed.
It now seems that England viii. be un-
able to form an alliance with any of the
great Powers of Europe; and, if so, she
viii harj'y precipitate war with Rus
ala, from which she could not gain any
thing, and would perhaps lose her India
possessions. Diplomacy, under the di.
rsction Of Bismark, the German Chan
cellor, is still seeking to harmonize the
conflicting interests, but has as yet failed
to remove the principal obstacles to g
settlement Of the many vexed questions
which threaten the peaco &C Europe.

vention, which convened in Atlantn last

harmonious union meetings which has

fani act, which requires one per cent. ct
the national debt to be annually retired

be held aS sinking fund. Tho grounds
upon which 1t Is proposed to make this
