'EvuL1sn sPEkLlSa REFORM.

The House Committee on Education
and Labor, to which was referred a
bill in the interest of the so-callcd
..spelling REFORM, Introduced by Mr..
Ballou, Of Rhode Island, has submitted
a favorable report on tho same. The
repott, written by Mr.. Ballou, declares
that it Ia deemed worthy of considern-
ton and careful inquiry, whether the
English language, which Is, perhaps,
destined to become universal, may not
be sim plified and abbreviated in Its
orthography by emitting tho silent
and unnecessary letters, and using only
those which most naturally and sim
ply convey the sound OF tho words
when pronounced. The committee
saws It has been informed by leading
educators that the irregular spelling Of
the Englinl, Language causes q loss OF
two years OF each child's school time,
is main cause "of the alarming hit
eracy of our peoples" involves nm an
nual ex xpense of many millions OF dol
lars for teachers and for writing and
printing supcrfuOus letters, and is In
many other ways an obstacle to tht
| progress of education. The COMMITTEES
1 has also been told by experienced
4 teachers and learned scholars that I
great reform can be made In Epglisl
spelling, and that system can be dc
vised, 'sto be gradually and wisely In
troducetl, which will be n great I'm
provcment in facilitating education
and a great saving of expense To th'
government and the people, In tht
printing OF public documents, schoo
, books and periodicals." The commit
tee. therefore, recommends the mp
nointment of u commission, "as n pre-
, iimjnary step, and for the purpose o
, having some well-detincd plan and
system presented to the public before
INV definite and radical change Il

A LEssOM FOR LIFE INSURERS.

~ k,4uV
Court Of Pennsylvania will, doubtless,
lead life Insurance companies of other
states, as we'll as those OF that State,
oIlook kscarefuliy into tho printed for
mulas which constitute tho Contract be-
tween the insurer and insured. The
policy in litigation had been issued by !
the Mutual Life Insurance Company |
Of New York. In the application
which had been signed by tho person
to whom the policy had heen issued
were these words: t'Tho applicant fur
ther declares that he Is not now afflicted
with any disease or disorder, and that
he does not now, nor will ho practice
any pernicious habit that obviously
tends to the shortening of life." The
policy contained condition that If
any Of the statements or declarations
made in the application should be
found In any respect untrue tho policy
should be void. At the, time of max
ing the application and taking opt the
policy the Insured man was man Of
good habits. Some years afterward he
took to drinking and was attacked with
leli,i.ns y streDaens, which caused his
DEATH, The company refused to pay
the policy and was sued. 1t was not
alleged that the habits of the Insured
were Objectionable when he took out
the policy, but 1t was claimed that he
had bound himself, for the future as
we'll as the present, not to practice any
tperniclous habit. that obviously tends
to the shortening Of lifc,' - and that the
4 tvlolation OF this pledge several years
after the policy was issued nulitfaetl
the contract between tho insurer and
insured. The lower court took this
view of the law and decided in favor o
tho insurance company. This deci
sion is now reversed by the Supreme
Court, which orders Judgment for tin
full amount of the policy, with inter
est, to be entered In favor Of tho plain
r tiff. The court holds that In no par
of the application had the fnsurcs
Icovenanted, promised, agreed, or war
ranted not to practice any pernfciou
habit. He declared that no would not
but the legal effect of a declaration
very different from that OF a covcnan
n or agreement. Nor was there an!
clause In the policy providing that
the insured should do anything t
lshorten life the, policy should, las'
facto, become void. Tho stipulation
that the policy should be null II any o
the statements or declarations made II
the application should be found untrue
"evidently REFERRED" says tho court
"to state of things existing mt tl't
time the policy was issued." a

LOTTERY DECISION.

d WASHINGTON, May w.. mt Su ''S.Ao
Court to-day rendered the following
decision In this case the Snte brougnt
a suit to suppress the lottery known
cationni and Manufacturing Aid So
ciety, - chartered by the State in 1867,
but forbidssenl by article 12yl section IL,
of the State Constitution Of 1855. The
Circuit court entered judgment Of Gus
ter against the respondents, which,
upon appeal, was affirmed by the Su-
;preme Court of tho State. This court
holds that although the lottery COM
pany of plaintiffs in error was duly
chartered by the State, the Legislature
which granted that charter had no au-
thority to bargain away the police
power of the State, that is, the regu!a-
ton of matters affecting the PuDlic
health and public morals. That lot
terfes are demoraliziug In their effects,
no matter how carefully regulates,
cannot, in the opinion OF this court,
he doubted. There Is now scarcely .
State in the Union where they are
tolerated, and Congress has granted a
special statute, the object of which Is
to close the mails against them. This
being the case, there can be no ques-
tion that lotteries are proper subjects
for the exercise of state, governmental
or police power. The contracts which
the Federal constitution protects are
those which relate to property rights,
not to governmental rights. Lotteries
belong to tho latter class. They are q
species of gambling, and wrong in their
influence. They disturb the checks
and the balances Of we'll ordered
lconmunity.9 A society built on such
. foundation would almost OF nceessl- :
| ty bring forth q population Of .specuia-
tors and gamblers living on the expecta.
ltfon Of what chance might award
them nom the accumulation of others
Certainly tho right to stop them il
governmental, and to be exercised al
all times by those in power at discre
ton. Any one, therefore, who accepts
a lottery charter does so with the I'M
piled understanding that the people
in their sovereign capacity, ant
through their properly constituted au
thorities, may take it back; at an!
time when the public good shat
require, and this whether 1t be pait
or not. He gets in legal effect moth
ing more than q license to continue OF
the terms named for specified time
unless sooner abrogated by the sover
eign power of the State. 1t is n permi
good as against existing laws, but sub
iect to future legislation, constitutions
contract, or withdrawal. The decree
is affirmed with costs. The opinion
was delivered by Chief Justice Waite

into the late order in Russia persecut-
ing the Jews. There ~ ample prece-

Russia united with christendom to put
a stop to the cruelties practiced on
the Christians by the Mahomedans.
The Jews have been prosecuted for
aees. and the civilization of the age de-
mantls that men of every race and re-
ligion should share equal privileges.
The Jew is as much entitled to the free
exercise of his religious opinion as the
Catholic or the Protestant, and the day
of bigotry is passed when governments
and societies shall prescribe men for
religions sake. .aa .1l: - q. --.l..-b +.

TIE CAMDEN AND GURDON RAIlROAI'

It begins TO look Just now as though,
we arc soon to have railroad from
aurtlon, on the Iron Mountain rail
rend, TO the city of Camden. The pre-
paratory steps arc being taken toward
its Immediate construction.
This work, when completed, will DO
duo to the enterprise and Iiberaiity OF
st. Louis and tho Iron Mountain rail
road company. 1t is a bold stroke for
tho rich and growing trade Of souti,
| Arkansas, and 1f they succeed IT VIII
be because they deserve IL. While the
citizens n nd merchants of New Orleans
are relying upon others, and suffering
the road from the Mississippi river I"
Camden TO come to q stop, the 'ner-
chants OF st. Louis arc working ana
extending their influence ana trade
into uIl the corners of our State. Tho
natural outlet for the products sof this
state il through New Orleans, but st.
louis, by IT'S energy, enterprise and
greatness OF soul, Is about to reverse
the very order OF nature. Let New
Orleans sleep on. We will not disturb
her rrcpose.--G"zcNe. ,,t.l yt, ief1
