clearer understanding Of the animus of
the democratic paden which are doing
so much talking about the alleged in-
crease IN pension payments, to state the

Mr.. EDIToR:-There wants to be one
moro society formed in this city, secret or
otherwise, whichever Will be the best.
Every pay day, which happens about the
tenth of every month, it should be the
object of this society to look after those
of the wofkmen who are unable to look
after themselves and by imprudence spend
not only large portion of the amount
paid them, but very often lose from
week to ten days before settling down to
work again.
1t has been suggested that the churches
are the proper bodies to look after such
weak brethren (for all are brothers) but
they do not seem to catch on from some
reason or another. If there was as much
energy, activity, persistent effort, desire
to please, entertain aud make happy, on
tho part of christian people of all denomi-
nations as are put forth by those who do
strive for their wages, there would be less
of it in a very little while. II one kind of
entertainment, even if it be huItful, is
taken away, there must be something to
take its place. Prayer meetings will do
when men become accustomed to them
and enjoy them, but from the tempting
ing places before the man of pleasure can
fully enter into that rest and peace which
is enjoyed by those who have been life
long christians.
There are times when the hand of
friendship stretched out to an erring
brother will be grasped by him and he
may be led away from scenes of wicked
ness. There are times when the kind
word spoken in Gods pane will reach the
heart of one held dear and another soul
will be added to the list of saoed. These
precious moments are not always on Sun.
day, when church bells call to worship
1t is good week day work, it is good
every day, every hour work for those who
are banded together for the downfall Of
evil and the uplifting of those who have
fallen, or the strengthening of those who
may through strong temptation, fall.
Let those who sing,
"Am l a soldier of the Cross,
| follower of the LambY
Go forth and strive with those who though
erring often, very often, say il they de
not sing,
WEARY of earth and laden with my SIM
look at heaven and long 10 enter ill.,"

In the days when ! was a cowboy in Old
Mexico the vaqueros knew how to ride.
Those fellows who go around with Wild West
shows can't ride little bit. See one of them
lean outof his saddle to pick up something
on tho ground He hooks his foot behind his
saddle and can hardly reach his hat on the
ground as the horse lopes by. The vaqueros
used to ride with could pick up n pin on tho
ground with the horse at full gallop. The
rider would hitch the spur on one foot in the
sinch Of the horse. and the little bells ON the
heel, falling into the rowels of the spur,
would hold the foot as firmly to tho sinch as
IL 1t had been tied there. Then the rider
could throw his whole body out OF the sad
die and could reach the very smallest object
on the ground Nowadays the cowboys don't
seem to understand that trick In fact, ono
Of them told me once that tho only use OF
the little bells on the spurs was to jingle and
add TO the dashing appearance of tho horse

The following facts, which have been
officially verified, relating to the part
borne by New Jersey in the war, are of
interest. containing, as they do, much
useful information in compact form
The population of the State in 1860,
or just prior to the breaking out OF the
war. was 672, 035, and the vote cast for
President in the Lincoln campaign num-
bered 12l. 1875. Taking these figures as
the basis il can be seen how we'll New
jersey did her part in the struggle, for
she furnished to the army and navy
1854 men. OF this number 81, I0l were
volunteers and 8,762 substitutes. The
personal service men were 951, and
Communication from drafted service was
paid for in the case OF 4, 1866 The num-
Der of enlisted men who received bounty
was AZ, 1871. To these soldiers the United
States paid as bounty $7,350, 900, and
the local bounty amounted to the much
larger sum OF $23, 1868, 966. New Jersey
paid out more money as local bounty
than Massachusetts,, while the latter
State had almost twice as many bounty
soldiers.
The proportion Of white soldiers who
enlisted in New Jersey to tho white
population was one to nine; proportion
OF colored soldiers to colored population,
one in twenty-one.

Gen. Clinton B. Fisk, of this State,
chairman of the Board of Indian Com
missioners, had better spend little of
his time in attending to the duties of his
Office, or resign it to better hands. Rev.
DR.. T. S. Childs, of Washington, d. c.,
recently investigated the Hampton In
dian school, and discovered that the
Indians were ill-fed and cruelty treated.
Upon the publication of DR.. Childs'
report, Gen. Fisk sent two of his COM
missioners to Hampton, who report that
DIR. Childs' statements are false. Never
theless, the Indians have sent a repre-.
sentative to Washington to thank the
authorities for the amelioration of their
condition as result of DIR. Childs' visit.
1t appears that Indian boys were pun
ished by being put in cell six feet six
inches long, three feet three inches
wide, and nine feet six inches high. II

cell is absolutely dark. The only ven.
tilation is some small holes in the side
wall at the top of the cell and which dc
not connect with the outside air. A
little straw comprised the furniture o
the room. The Indian boys, DIR. Child
reported, were sometimes confined il
this cell for from a few days to NOR
than week at time, and some of til,
officers of the institution said the stencil
was awful when boy was removed. i
wouldn't be bad idea to put thea.

There are many ways beside actual
contact in which contagious diseases
may be transmitted, and, recognizing
this fact. the Trustees of the Boston
Public Library have arranged that the
Board Of Health shall cause the library
card in any family where contagious
disease is found to exist to be stamped,
and the library will thereafter decline to
allow books to be taken out on such a
card until the contagion shall have been
extirpated from the home. The danger
which Turks in the handling Of books
from an infected locality can be readily
understood.

The vote on constitutional prohibition

The vote on constitutional prohibition
yesterday, in Pennsylvania, resulted in
its defeat by about 1856, 900 majority.
Philadelphia gave majority of 93,750
against it. This is the first battle. When
the temperance people stop quarrelng
among themselves and unite heartily to-
gether, the result will be different. To
say that constitutional prohibition is
going to prevail in this country, sooner
or later, is simply to say that the world
is moving on, and great social evils, one
by one, are being crushed by the gradual
moral elevation of the people.

AN INSURANCE CASE.

RANbE, COMPANIES EFT AL.
Directors and omcsrs OF the Arlington
Company Sustained in Their Rela-
tloLs TowArd the Citizens Company
by Chancellor Estes.

In the Chancery Court yesterday Chan
cellor Estes rendered his opinion in the
case Of Aston Boyd against 7. b. Sims,
the Arlington and Citizens Insurance
Companies and others. This suit, it will
be remembered grew out Of an attempt on
the part Of Boyd and others, minority
stockholders in the Arlington Company, to
prevent the President and Secretary Of
that Company from acting as such officers
OF the Citizens Insurance Company, and
TO prevent the Citizens from doing busl-
ness in the office OF the Arlington, they
claiming that the Citizens was rival
Company to the Arlington, and was quar-
tered there for the purpose OF dividing its
business, and that such was the effect of
the arrangement between the Companies.
The court was without power, except in
an extreme case Of fraud or abuse, TO take
the control OF the business OF the two COM
panies out Of the hands Of their Boards OF
Directors aud majority stockholders, and
that no such case had been proven in the
record. The court also decided that Boyd
had entirely failed to show that any injury
had been caused the Arlington Company
by reason OF its business association with
the Citizens, and no fraud committed by
the officers aud directors. The court ex.
pressed the belief that the litigation was
the outgrowlh OF party spirit and that the
iancicd wrongs OF the complainant existing
between the companies aud had decreased
the business Of the Arlington and injured
tha tfs.ltt.t ii ~ afaYE mud thn
stockholders aud directors OF the Arlington
Company were also stockholders IN the
Citizens Company the arrangement be-
tween the companies was u fraud upon the
rights OF the minority stockholders.
The Chancellor aitera careful considcra-
ton Of the case and in an elaborate opin
ion held that there were fifteen diroc,Dri
in the Arlington Company who fully APP
proved and ratified the dealings and bust
ness arrangements between the two com
panics, only five Of whom were directors
In the Citizens Company, aud that three.
fourths OF the stockholders also fully APP
proved OF the dealings, which had been
greatly magnided and were without foun-
dalton. The Chancellor ordered the bill
dismissed ut the cost OF complainants,
both ON the ground that they had failed to
show effort 10 connect the business deal
ings between the companies aud had also
failed 10 show merit.
This case has caused considerable inter
cat in insurance circles, aud the result IL a
complete vindication Of the officers aud di-
rectOrs OF the two companies.
