should perhaps be stated that this ballot
model, ms originally designed, provided for
tho location OF the party emblem at the left OF
the party name, and of tine square ,or mark
ing straight ticket at the right of the name,
with n wide srsco between it and the
squares below it, but that feature of the
ballot was changed TO illustrate the amend.
mont proposed by Senator Foster. The
original design would, OF course, make a
more concise ballot, and in a case Of diiiicul-
" arising from the extreme length OF the
ballot, ike thnt Just now experienced in
Pennsylvania, for instance, condolences
would count for something; but Vermont is
not likely to be troubled in that way for
some time to come and the location of the
emblem with reference to the party name is
largely n matter of choice.
1t is believed that with the revision of the
ballot law as proposed by Senator Foster
and the use OF a ballot arranged on lines
similar to those here suggested, little, il
any, difficulty would be hereafter expert
enced in Vermont from the Use of the secret

INSURANCE C0MFASIEs WIN.


A Boston Cattle Shippers Low Premium
Proves Very Costly.
BOsTON, Oct. CT was an unfortunate
step that Albert n. Munroe took in ship
ping lot of cattle on the steamer Mis-
sOur when he took out policies of iusur-
Ance against total loss of the cattle be-
cause when the Missouri was wrecked off
the English coast in February, 1855, part
OF the cattle were saved, and as there was
not an actual total loss, the insurance
rompanics, under the terms Of their
agreement with Munroe, refused TO pay
nnything. He brought suit in the United
States circuit court against them, claim
ing S'5, 900, on the ground that there was
p constructive total loss, but the circuit
court ruled otherwise, and the circuit
rOut of appeals yesterday sent down an
opinion affirming the decree of the lower
tourt. The insurance companies sued were
the British and Foreign Marine Insurance
rompauy and the Union Marine Insurance
company. The object of Munroc in plac-
ing his insurance as be did was to save
the payment Of large premium. If he
took his chances Of either getting his cat
tie over safely or else having them all lost,
his premium was less than in case he took
Dut policy providing that lie should he
paid for whatever cattle were lost
