NEssRs. EDITORs PROM an article in
your paper, one day last week, learned
that u Iicense had been given by tbs Com
missioner o Insurance for tue State OF
Delaware to the Delaware State Mutual
Fire Insurance Company, which enables
it, at once, to commence business in the
way OF insuring both real and personal
property. Now, es the law of the
State, under which SnCh license is
granted, requires that there shall be at
isast one hundred applicants for insur-
ance in every new company before il
can procure sdeh Icsnse, aud as sad
numb Der did certainly make application
ct 60 early 3 period Gitsr the recent
trial at New Castle, and after the
Il euse of the old company, bearing
ue4rly TIE same name, was revoke ed, II
ooks very much as if the people fern
ing this community had great faith in
the integrity and responsibility Of The
men who are engineering this new com
psuy, organized, as it now Ia, under an
old chsrter granted by the Legislature
Gf Delaware q few years ago. Your cor
reg pondent has no particular interest
ia this company, further than bsing
oae amongst the many applicants for
insurance, but, at the same time, de
size to see it in prosperous condition,
withaut making any iuvidions com
paFisoas with neighboring companies.

AA'onget the variety Of Legislative
WORK Shis winter 10 the Legislature
to give the Dem ooracy zest for reform
will be the impeachment II Derrick B.
Morris, q Justice OF the Peace from Sus-
sex county. He will either have to be
impeached and removed from office or
the Democracy will nave to shoulder
all the tyranical and Illegal acts which
hs is said tc be guilty OF practiciDg.
II half what is told OF this Democratic
Squire is true the sooner the Democra.
ey get clear OF him the better It will
be for their sinking cause. 1t Is said
that this immaculate squire Las a PEI
feet contempt for the intricate forms Of
law, bat when he gets hold Of trsnsgres-
cor he quietly takes him to one sids and
tells him that he must fork over ten
dollars or il he has not ten dollars to
give he takes what he can get.
This II Is said is done without dockets,
Witnesses or the trouble Of writing ont
warrants. This will be & delec:able
bit to reg ale the Legislature with. We
are afraid hat MOI IL does not stand
alone. There are Olher Justices who
are equally unju.t though no. so ma
liciOus as he Is said 10 be. Il would
serve good purpose We think II the
Legislature would appoint a committee
to investigate the manner in which
justice is administered by more han
one Squire In tbs State. It has Lot
been long since $500 was thought to be
trem sndous bill OF costs for one Jus.
tiee OF the Peace TO present to the Levy
Court for one years work. last year
one Squire at least had bill reaching
above 5000 and hs was allowed the
whole amount. The great bulk Of this
amount OF costs was made by prose
cutious in trivial cases which generally
resulted in couutsrsuits and double
coats 10 the Squire aud COustAbles.

What other States do In lee days
before the election In order to qualify
for exercising tas elective Franchise, IL
takes nearly q year to do in Delaware
TAs period for Asssssmentsx extends from
the OstIbsr session Of the L,vy Court
when the asfessors are sworn Ia, until
the last day of March next ensuing
Though ,his Is Ave months before she
City election, and six months before
the "Little Election" in October, and
seven months before the general STATE
election In November. unless vO:er is
assessed prior TO the aTst day Of April
II the same year he cannot vote al the
lsstelsslions named, and even II assess-
ed In time, he cannot vote Al the ell
suing city election at all.
When the assessment is completed,
II takes two months more to make out
the tax duplicates and deliver the,a to
the collectors which Ia usually ::in the
month N June. Then II the voter
whose name happens TO bs on the tax
duplicate at the time, will hunt up the
collector and pay his taxes and get his
receipt for the same he can vote at the
ensuing election provided he'has been
assessed six months before the said
election. II Is this assessment law OF
which there Is such general complaint.
II ID trne that In the hands Of honest
men, unbiased BY partisan feeling, the
law would bear alike upon &ll and
though II Is clumsy and intricate in its
operations there would be no special
cause for complaint by one party more
than another. But, In the hands Of
unsauprlOus partisan politicians, such
% the Democrats elect assessors the law
has become an engine Of disfranChise-
msnt Of Republicans. Such Law IL
contrary to the spirit Of true Rerubli-
can government which aims to ass' ct
citizens In voting instead OF diSfan-
Chising them. The Registry law offers
the simplest and easiest mode Of quail
flying to vote and with proper precs
tions thrown around tho system it bs.
comes = perfect safe guard againSt.trsud
At the polls.
No doubt an attempt will be made at
the approaching session Of the Lsgisla-
ture 10 amsud the present assessment
laws that they may be shorn Of their
obi jsctionabls features. We do net
know the nature Of the change that
will be proposed bat We are inclined
10 think that 1t will b. Q registry Law
rs a substitute for the old plan. The
prcjsct may be dsfealed, but that mat.
Lers not. The party that undertakes
longer to carry al! the inigQitiss Of the
present assessment Law upon its shoul-
iers will have a heavy load to carry
and will, in the end, meet with igno.
ninous defeat. We hope the RsprbN- ll
ian members of the Legislature will I
push things" little in that direcGo ,
lad let the Democrats take the reepon- J
!ibility Of defeating the bill, If they I
