THE Dwight Insurance case.

New York Commercial Advertiser
Col. Walton Dwight, of Bingham
ton, n. Y, died some months ago. as
will be remembered by our readers,
leaving policies upon his life in va
rious companies amounting to over
s250,000. After proper investigation,
the Equitable Life, Of this city. prompt
Iy paid its loss Of 10000 in full and
steadily declined having anything to
do with the subsequent proceedings.
However, the remains were exhumed. a
second autopsy was made, aud the en-
tire case was gone over again before
the Coroner's jury. composed of prom
inent physicians. Yesterday the Jury,
after hearing all the testimony upon
the case, returned the following unan
imous verdict:
We do lind that they said Walton
Dwight came to his death AZ the
Spaulding House. in the city Of Bing-
hamton, on the 18th day of November.
1873, from exhaustion of the vital
powers produced by protracted yomit
ing, malnutrition, aud the enervatiug
effects of malarial poison, terminating
in fatal collapse; aud furthermore we
6nd that the said Walton Dwight did
not come to his death from suicidal or
homicidal causes.
This disposes Of one of the most
curious CT disputed life Insurance
cases, for it is to be presumed that
all the companies will now be COM
PEELED to adopt the course taken vols
UNFAIRLY by one at the beginning.

A change of YIa,xs-

Henry Ward Beecher, in his recent
trip to the south west, went as far
south as Memphis. His visit did him
good. He learned some things he
had not known before. His inter-
courses with Southern men was pleas
ant. H. found they were not swag-
gerers and bullies, but we'll hammered,
gentlemanly, patriotic, and hospital lie.
As a consequence his opinions were
smartly modified.
Last Sunday, as reported by the
Herald, Mr.. Beecher in his sermon re-
ferred to his visit, and spoke Of the
Impressions it left upon his mind. He
said
"This great nation was divided by an
invisible line, morally visible enough, on
both sides of which the North and South
had stood in bloody antagonism for FIVE
terrible years. In my own judgment,
when l consider human nature, when
consider that proud people have seen
themselves emptied out of rover, their
political existence almost annihilated,
thei property swept out of their hands
as by consuming flame, the ascendancy
of the dispised slave established over

| should not have wondered if there had
been ten times the resistance that there
has been to reconstructive measures
Neper in history has people borne so much
scith so much p0tience gallaHtey and patriotism
"a spectacle of moral grandeur and of
substantial good intent and honor in
those who have been so terriilically
scourged which is without parallel. The
spirit which would set the North
against the South, the East against the
West, the Germans against the old Puri
tans or the old Puritans against the Ger
mans, the whites against the blacks OF
the blacks against the whites, Is not only
politically criminal, but it is absolutely
| subversive of the fundamental instincts
of humanity. There is yet the power anC
the honor in this country to hold men to
gether in charity and unity. When i
was the need of the untempered North e
/ he nerved to resist the arrogance of plan
tation domination ! was not wanting
What VIC need now is love, charity an,

How A Clergyman settled A
Chinese Question.

The Rev. Mr.. GOber, Methodist
clergyman at Grass Valley, New, has
settled the Chinese question in his
parish. He took with him to Grass
Valley from Sacramento a Mongolian
man-of all-work. The members Of
the flock liked the shepherd, but hated
the shepherd dog, and it was not
long before the board of stewards de-
manded the expulsion of the China
man. The clergyman assured them
that John had lived with him long
time, was a tolerable Christian and
an exceedingly good fellow, and there
was no reason why he should be disc
charged. The stewards subsequently
ioformed the parson that they would
not pay his salary if he refused to dis
miss the servant. The reply was,
"Come TO church next Sunday even
ing" The church was crowded on
the evening IN question, aud the SER
mon was awaited with breaihless in
tercst The references to the Chinese
question was brief but poil ted. "The
discharge the Chinaman in my EN-.
ploye they will no longer be responsi,
BILE for my salary. My wife has
learned to like j ohm because he is
good Christian, thinks so much of US
and does his work so faithfully. Il
now answer you once for all that the
Chinaman shall stay with us, and |
shall continue as pastor of this church |
until the conference sees fit otherwise /
to direct me, salary or no salary, /
starve or no starve l have never
yet been inundated from what con.
sidered my duty as christian, and do
not propose to be now! Brethren, it
strikes me pretty forcibly that it would /
be better for you to follow the religion
taught i1 the Bible than that dealt
out in the sand lots in San Francisco"
There was applause from every side
of the church, and when the preacher
left the pulpit prominent member of
the congregation stepped up to him
and said: "Parson, you have partaken
of my hospitality in the past many a
time. Recollect that my latch string
hangs on The outside when you come
that way. There is a crust in our
when your salary fails"
