A Life Insurance Decision.
AN IMPORTANT onssrrou IN THE U. s. savanna
comm;
The case of the Phoenix Mutual Life Insur-
ance Company of Hartford, Conn., plaintiff
in error vs. Caroline B. Coster, et al. was
decided last week in the U. s. Supreme
Court. The principal controversy in this
case atose out of the forfeiture clause
in the life insurance policy upon which the
suit was brought. 'l‘hat clause provides
that if payment of the premium is not made
by the assured on the day when it falls due,
t w policy shall be forfeited and void. It
Was conceded by the beneficiaries of the
policy in this case that when the hssured
was killed in a railroad accident his annual
premium had been several days overdue and
was unpaid. They maintained however that
on several previous years the insurance
company had accepted the premium without
objection five or ten days after it fell due
a rd that this constituted a tacit waiver of
t re forfeiture clause so far as it related to
punctuality of payment. They further
maintain that the company neglected to
send to the assured. the customary annual
notice of the amount of premium due for
that year, and that he was on this account re_-
lieved from responsibility for failure to make
prompt payment. The amount of the prem-
ium wa‘s tendered to the company, Immedi-
ately after the death of the assured by the
beneficiaries of the policy but was refused.
The court held that any course of action on
the part of an insurapce company which
leads a party insured honestly to believe
that by conforming ‘thereto, a forfeiture of
his policy will not be incurred, followed by
due conformity on his part, will and ought
to estop the company from insisting upon
the forfeiture, though it be claimed under
the express letter of the contract. The
court further held that the failure of the
company to transmit to the assured the cus-
tomary annual notice, if he had a right to
expect such a notice, 71nd if he was ready
upon receipt of it to pay the premium, Is also
enough to defeat the operation of the forfei-
ture clause. The judgment of the court be-
low that the company must pay the amount
of the policy was affirmed. The opinion was
delivered by Justice Harlan.
A case coming closely within the last
clause of the U. S. Supreme Court's
, decision as above, is now being adjusted
with the Phoenix Company by our worthy
townsman Joseph H. Randle Post Master at
Winnipauk. ‘Mr. Randle has held and paid
promptly his annual premiums to this com-
pany for a period of about twenty-five years.
The custom of the Company has been to
mail him some time in advance, a “ notice"
Of the time when his premium would fall
due. Last year the company failed to send-
him such usual notice and Mr. R., immersed
in business as he is, forgot all about it and
it was not paid. This year, not receiving
his notice and having forgotten that he did
not remit last year he sent to the company for
a statement of the amount due on this
year's annual premium payment. He was
surprised to learn that his policy had been
declared forfeited and all he had paid there-
on for the long series Of years, because of his
non-payment of his premium last year, was
lost. As we had induced Mr. Randls to
take out the policy originally, he came to
seek our advice, which was that he apply to
the company to be
and if found sound and insurable, in all re-
spects, that he be permitted to pay his last
and the present year's premiums, wlth the
interest on the amount due on last year's
premium and have his policy restored. This
fair and honorable proposition the Phosnrx
Company, we are glad to say, have accepted,
although not obligated thereto by the pre-
cise terms of the policy.

Wet and Dry Coal in Making
' Steam. -
A series Of- tests was made recently at
Bochum, Germany, to determine the values
of wet and dry bituminous coal in the mak-
ing of steam. Washed slack, holding 18
per cent. of Water and 9.9 per cent of ash,
evaporated 5.7 pounds of water per pound
of fuel; while the same coal, with only 6‘
per cent. of water, made from 8 to 8.5
pounds of steam. Making due allovtauee for
moisture by reducing to a standard of like
quantities of coal, free from moisture, there
is found to be a direct loss by using Wet coal
of 14 per cent. ,

Oyster Sets.
The Norwich Bulletin says: The oyster
law went off the natural beds in the Thames
on the first of November, and tho oystermen
were prompt to visit the oyster beds to reap
their annual harvest, but they were surprrsed
to find that the spawn had "set” upon the
oysters in such numbers as to actually make
them saleless. It is said that young oysters
have not been so thickly distributed of
late years in the Thames river as during
' the past season, which appears to have
been unusually favorable to their develop-
ment. There is promise of a large native
crop of oysters from ‘the Thames in 1884M
the oysters now set have no drawbacks.
Similar reports come to us from the Provr-
sings the: beds.

LILY ” AND Iran PHILOSOPHICAL MANAGER,
&0.
(Special Correspondence of the GAzIITTlr.)
, NEW Yonx, Nov. 18, 1882.
Many and many a time I have been a
guest at the residence of a friend living in
a brown-stone house near the Union Club,
and have admired jhc fine yards and houses
from the large windows. The other night
came a letter from my friend containing this
extract: “ You will remember how you used
to watch those lovely children who played
in sight of our window. Every morning I
have arisen at seven o'clock to see the little
ones at their games. There were three of
them; each had beautiful long, silky hair.
The youngest—fl girl—five years old; the
two eldest—boys—were six‘ and seven,
Their swert .tempers and innocent ways
made them seem like angels playing in early
sunlight. This morning I missed them.
They were no longer playing soldiers, nor
or playing hide-and-Seck with their mother,
who is a tall, graceful woman, intellectual
and refined. I went down stairs and said to
my brother: ‘ Where are those children this
morning?’ He said nothing, but handed me
the Herald, and to my horror I saw in big,
black headlines that the children weredead.
Their mother had shot them in a front room
at ‘the top of the house. The statement
seemed too awful to be true, and even now I
look out where the sun floodsthe grass-plat,
but there are no voices, no children playing
The doors are clOsed, the windows are dark-
cued, and the neighborhood seems wrapped
in gloom." '
It Would seem that October has been a
fatal mouth for New York. For the most
part the weather has resembled murky Lon-
don. A bright October sun was a rarity
indeed, and there must have been something
in the muggy atmosphere to breed calamities.
First, we had a crazy Frenchman running
smack in a thoroughfare crowded with lady
shoppers, and dealing death blows right and
left with a pair of compasses. Then an
employs of the Third Avenue Horse Railroad
Company tries to shoot his uncle, the presi-
dent of the eompTIny, and, under the impres-
sion that his shot was effective, blows out his
own brains with the same weapon. Then
the Park Theatre fire, which missed only by
a few hours being a human holocaust. The
climax of horrors was capped, however, on
the last day of the month by the murder of
the three beautiful and innocent children,
mentioned above, by a lunatic mother, who
subsequently takes her own life. Dr. Seguin,
the father of the murdered children and the
husband Of the lunatic in question, is a man
,known to entertain peculiar views on the
subject of insanity. That ‘phase of insanity
resulting from nervous disorders he has made
l special study. It is reported that he would
have been called as an insanity expert in the
Guiteau case but for his peculiar ideas. No
one questions the doctor’s high standing in
his profession, and the most profound sympa-
thy is extended On all sides for his dreadful
misfortune. But it is rather remarkable that
a man supposed to be an adept in diagnosing
the insane phase 0t morbid nervousness,
hysteria, &c., should have failed to discover
that his own'wife was a lunatic.
The present sensation in New York is Mrs.
Lsngtry. The Bernhardt boom was never so
great as the interest in the “ Jersey Lily,”
who is a common subject of conversation.
Her pictures are for sale in all the shop
windows, in the elevated railway stations,
and on vendera’ carts in the streets. Some
of the photographs are high-colored, and not
in the least like the original. Herbeautiful
face is now so well known that when she
ventures forth in the street people stare at
her with abominable persistency, and even
follow her about. The Park Theatre fire was
a costly advertisement to' Mr. Abbey the
manager, his loss being $100,000, but it has
not been without its advantages, in spite of
the delay of one week and the annoyance to
eager ticket holders. I say eager advigedly.
because people who rushed forward to pay
$18 and $20 for a, single seat 13nd $320 for
boxes must be somewhat enthusiastic. One
advantage of the fire is that the debut was
made in a more suitable place, 'Wallack's
new theatre being the handsomest as well as
one of the largest places of entertainment in
the country.

The Grand Army.
Yesterday, keeping time to the drum tap,
a column Of men ununiformed and unarmed
marched up State street. No lace or tinsel
glittered on their coat, nor spur jingied at
their heel, nor sabre clanked at their side ;
as with elbows touching they followed the
music of the beating drum. ,
There were but few who could be called
.young men in the ranks, there were many
whos: locks were scanty or, grey, and here
and there was one who, bowed down by
years and the infirmities of age, strove pain-
fully to keep the measure of the quickened
pace. These were comrades of the Grand
Army of the Republic following a fellow
soldier to his final resting place.
Stop and watch them oh noisy politician,
as they pass you ! Nay doff your hat to
them, man I for pratc us you will of your de-
thllull to your 'couutr'y, these men have
proved theirs as you never can. Tellof your
patriotism in the caucus or at the bushings, if
you will, they spoke theirs at. the cannon’s
mouth, their eloquence was the roar of mus-
ketry, their gestures the sighting of a rifle,
their appeal the outpouring of their life-blood
on the battlefield. You know them. You
will meet again tomorrow, this one in the
shop, that one in the store. and you'will for-
get almost that they were soldiers in that
grand and great army. But to-day they are
apart from you and me. These are the men
who saved the Republic. We have no part
in their memories, no fellowship in their re
collections, no place in their ranks.
Remember the terrible days—the bulletins
uncertain and vague—the tidings of defeat
and disaster—the word of bloody and fierce
carnage—the eyes anxious and dimmed by
tears that scanned the list of dead, wounded
and missing—the tramp of armed men press-
ing to the front—the pale wan figure with
empty sleeve, home, wounded—the long
fierce and doubtful struggle—the call for
more and more troops—the anxious awaiting
for news—the hope deferred that maketh the
heart sick—remember thosd terrible days and
then remember gratefully that these men
were participants in that struggle. wore par-
takers of that sacrifice.
How long ago it all seems, a generation
has grown up since then. The young man
who will be made a voter this fall remembers
nothing of it all. It can only be such history
to him as the story of the struggle of '76 is to
you and me. It is in the school histories
now and the children in schools reading of
the battles and seeing the pictures of this and
that field with its charging platoons and its
tattered flags, wonder as you and I did when
we were children at school, what it all means
and what war really is. God grant they may
never know. .
' Step closer, elbow to elbow, comrades of
the Grand Army. Though never more the
storm of- shot and shell shall thin your ranks,
yet there are gaps here and there. Your col-
umn is thinner than last year. Here and
there is a comrade gone and your ranks car:-

for this army.
Step closer and fill the gap, though the col-
umn grows shorter and there be some tread-
ing now in the file who shall walk there no
more, as he on whose breast you laid the rose
and the laurel yesterday shall never walk
with you again, and we for whom you fought
will wait with uncovered head while you
pass, you who even now are but a meagre
handfull of those brave men who counted
their- llves as nothing in the defence of their
country, being soldiers of the Army of the

“My dear,” said Mr. Spoopendyke. rump-
liug his hair around his head and gazing at
himself in the glass; “my dear, do you
know I think I smoke too much i’ It doesn’t
agree with me at all." '
“Just what I have always thought i”
chimed Mrs. Spoopendyke, “and ‘besides it
makes the room smell so. You know this
room”— .
"I’m not talking about theirOom,” retorted
Mr. Spoopendyke, with a snort. “I’m not
aware that it affects the health of the room.
I'm talking about my health this trip, and I
think I’ll break off short. You don’t catch
the smoking any more.” And Mr. Spoopen-
dyke yawned and stretched himself and
plumped down in his easy I chair and glared
out the window at the rain.
“How are you going to break off!" in-
quired Mrs. Spoopendyke, drawing up her
sewing chair and gazinglinto her husband’s
face admiringly. "I suppose the best way
is not to think of it at all."
“The best way is for you tosit there and

for? Now's the time to make me cheeful. .
If ye don't know any cheerful things: keep

”Of course," assented Mrs. Spoopendyke,
“you want subjects that withdraw your mind

used to. Won’t it be nice when the long
winter evenings come, and the fire is lighted
and you have your slippers and papers—"
“That’s just the time I want a cigarl’v
roared Mr. Spoopendyke, bounding around
in his chair and scowling at his wife. “Ain‘t
ye got sense enough to shingle your tongue
for a minute? The way you’re keeping it
up, you’ll drive me back to my habit in less'n
an hour," he continued solemnly, “and then
my blood be on your head 1"
“Oh, dear i’” sighed Mrs. Spoopendyke,
“I didn't mean to. Did you notice about the
comet ? They say it is going to drop into the
sun and burn up—”
“There ya go again!” yelled Mr. Spoop-
endyke. “You can‘t open your measly
month without suggesting something that
breaks me downl Who wants fire when he's
stopped smoking? Two minutes ore and
I'll have a pipe in my mouth!" and Mr.
Spoopendyke groaned dismally in contem-
plation of the prospect.
“I’m glad you’re going to stay at home to-
day,” continued Mrs. Spoopendyke, sooth-
ingly. “You'd be sure to catch cold if vou
went out; and by-snd-by we’ll have a piping
hot dinner—”
“That’s it!" squealed Mr. Spoopendyke,
bounding out of his chair and plunging
around the room. "You’d got to say some-
thing about a pipe! I knew how it would
be? You want me to diel You want me
to smoke myself into an early grave! You’ll
fetch it! Don’t give yourself any uneasiness!
You're on the track 1” and Mr. Spoopendyke
buried his face convulsively.
“I mfint it for the best, my dear," mur-
drawing 1” .
.“That’s it i" ripped Mr. Spoopendyke.
“Drawing! You’ve driven me to it instead
of keeping me from it. You know haw it’s
doncl All you need now is a lightning rod
and a dish of milk toast to be an inebriates’
home! Where’s that cigar I left here on the
mantel? Gimme my death warrant! Show
me my imported doom ? Drag forth my
miniature coffin!” and Mr. Spoopendyke
swept the contents of the shelf upon the floor
and howled dismrflly.
“Isn’t that it i" asked Mrs. Spoopendyke,
pointing to a small pile of snuff on the chair
in which Mr. Spoopendyke had been sitting
”That looks like it.”
. “Wah? yelled Mr. Spoopendyke, grasp-
‘ng his hat and making for the door. “An-
other time I swear off you go into the coun-
try, you hear 1" and Mr. Spoopendyke dashed
out of the house and steered for the nearest
tobacco shop. , .
“I don’t care," muttered Mrs. Spoopan
dyke; “when he swears ofl again, I’m wil-
ling to leave, and in the meantime I suppose
he’ll be healthier without his pipe, so I‘ll
hang it up on the wall where he'll never
think of looking for it," and having con-
signed the tobacco to the flame, Mrs. Spoo-
pendyke gathered he sewing materials
around her and double fiinched an old reso-
lution never to lose her temper, no matter
what happened.

“Not Fltten." ..
A school teacher entered a grocery store
and said :—
“The other day when I came in to see you
I inadvertently said ‘have saw.’ 1 have call-
ed around to make a correction." '
“How far have you come '1’" asked the
grocer. .
“Two miles,"
"All right—I'll see you again."
Several days afterwards the grocer entered
the school teacher’s office and said :
“I owe you about fifty dollars for teaching
my boys. 1 have walked two miles to cor-
rent an error. When I was in here the other
day I said, ‘I will pa‘y you.”
'“That-is strictly correct," said the teacher.
“No, it is not correct, and I wish to make
a correction. I will not pay you. 0 Now
that's a correction. Any man who is so
particular as you are ain't fitten to have among
children."-—Arkamaw Trawler.

Our Reporter’sVantion Notes.
During his rambles thissesson, our Mr. M. has
_ taken upon himself the .task of satisfying our nu-
merous readers that whatever goods are manu-
factured in our city of Roger Williams, are of as
high a grade, and as fine in quality as can be pro-
cured in any spot on the globe. Especiallyis this
. so when the skilled Pharmacist of many years.
experience resolves to extract from the fin-
est hotanicai specimens of the yegctablo world
the most potent cure for some special disease. In
proof of his assertion that Providence'afforda the
best, he relates an interview with an acquaint—
ance, given him while sojourning temporarily at
her residence. She says, “About a year I suffered
severely from rheumatism in my limbs, and non-
ralgia in the head. whichI endured two or three
months, with as much patience as possible, being
under the treatment of an excellent doctor, and
trying many kinds of medicine without any
niarkcd benefit. Atlast a medical friend advised
me to try Hunt’s Remedy, because he attributed
my severe suffering to the bad condition of my
kidneys, which were not performing their proper
functions, and Icommcnccd taking it, and in a.
few days the neuralgia had departed, my head-
ache had entIrely disappeared, the swelling in my
limbs and joints had gone, and 1 have not had a
touch of‘ It since. More recently 1 was troubled
with imnurity of the blood, which showed Itself
In severe eruptions on my face. I again resorted
to Hunt's Remedy. and after takrng it a short
time was completely cured of that complaint.
Hunt’s ltemed y has proved very beneficial to me
in gttaeks of sick headachenvhich it always al-
levlates. and I notice the improvement as soon as
1 take the Remedy. This ltemcdy hasstreugth-
enlng elements, for it has made me feel much
stronger and has been very beneficial to my gen-
eral health. I most heartily recommend it to all
sufferers like myself. Mrs. L. G. 'I‘ANNEII, No.

Albert G. Mann, of Cottage 110me,Ill., says: “I
have been prostrated for three or'more years with
kidney disease; at times Iwas not able to put on
my boots, my wife has often pIIlledjtlI em on for
me. I. was not so bad as that all the :time, but 1
never knew what It was to be without pain in my
back until I commenced using HUNT’S ltnunnr.
sInce I beganto take Hunt’s Remedy I have been
free from all ain, and take pleasure in saying
that It is the est medicine that I ever knew for
kidneyland liver diseases.”

for two years; the other eye finally becoming
sympathetically effected, her general health ser-

awalkin g skeleton. in this terrible strait she eon
salted Dr. David Kennedy, of Rondout. N. Ya
who told her at once that the injured eye must be
removed. She quietly but firmly said: “Al
right, Doctor, but don’t give me chloroform. Let
my husband sit by my side during the operation
and I will neither cry out or stir.” The work
was done. the poor woman kept her word. Talk
of soldieriy courage ! This showed greater pluck
than it takes to face a hundred guns. To restore
her general health and give tone and strength to
the system. Dr. Kennedy then gave the “Favorite

new life to the long suffering woman. She rapid-

Dr Newman a Spiritualist.
111E AYOWS H15 BELIEF IN COMMUNICATIONS
I
FROM THE BPITIT WORLD.
l ,
', The sermon preached by the Rev. Dr. J.
I P. Newman at the Madison Avenue Congre.
gational Church, recently, has excited con-
siderable comment. His subject was, “ Do
the Dead Return ?”;the sermon being one of
a series on the immortality of the soul. He
took the position that the spirits of the dead
inhabit an invisible world and that com-
munications are received from them. Dr.
Newman in conversation recently with a
Tribune reporter said:
“ There has been a belief in spirits among
nearly all nations, and that there is an in-
termediate state has been almost universally
believed. In Bible times the two worlds
met. There was communication between
them as there is now between New York and
London-not so frequently, of course. If
spirits exist the question comes as to what '
form they have. In the first placeI say
that wherever there have been appearances
the spirits have been in human form. It is
a physiological fact that the human soul is
coextensive with the nervous system. If
you take away everything from the body
but the nervous tissues, you still have left
the human form. Death is the evolution of
the soul out of this system of the human
body.”
“Do you believe in a communication with
departed spirits?"
“ Nothing is more clearly taught in the
Bible. Not less than five persons are re-
corded there as having returned. Christ had
a precxistence. During the three days in-
tervening betweeen His death and resur-
rection His spirit is represented as absent_
from the body. First, He visited Paradise
for he told the thief on the cross that He
would meet him there the day of his death.
Then He went to Gshenna for He preached
to the 'spirits who “aforetime were diso-
bedient." The Scriptural record is in I,
Peter iii., 10. There is no doubt some ac-
ceptedHls teaching. This is presupposed
by the fact of His preaching to them. He
then returned» to the earth and is to return
again," -
“ Was Christ in the flesh or the spirit, in
your opinion, after the resurrection P”
“ He took up His body again, but it uh-
derwent a transformation before His ascen-
sion. Then there are the cases of Samuel,
Moses and Elijah. Moses represented the
, disembodied spirits and returned after an
absence of 1,500 years. Elijah, representing
the embodied spirits—he was translated,
you know—returned after 1,000 yearsl"
“ What was their mission ?"
" They were evidently a committee of two
sent from the spirit world to inquire of
Christ whether He felt himself competent to
make their heaven permanent by His death
on the cross. They were familiar with this
world, they knew where Christ was; what
mountain-top he was on praying; they knew
that helwas to die in Jerusalem—a future
event.”
“ Did you make use Of Paul’s case in your
argument ?" -
“ Yes, that is another Aexample. Under
the law of leviation he was caught up to the
third Heaven and heard, as he says, things
not lagful for him to utter. He came back
and lived twenty years after this event. It
was to him the inspiration of his ministry,
and enabled him to endure martrydom. ‘ He
is the only man that ever longed for death.
He knew all about it. He had been
there."
“ What do you think of Swedenborg's
theories ?"
“ There can be no doubt that he‘ is correct
in his assertions that the spirits of his friends
come to him and communicate with‘him.
There are many cases where there seems to
be this communication of spirits. When
the father of the eloquent Buckminster was
dying in New Hampshire he suddenly ex-
claimed: ‘My son is deadl' His son did
die at that very moment in Boston I buried
a precious woman a few years ago. Her
only son was in Iowa. While ploughing in
the field he suddenly stopped and said his
mother was dead. The young man’s father,
who is a mathematician, made a calculation,
and foudd that the death and the impression
received by the son were coincident in point
of timerto the moment.”
“How I you get this evidence '1’"
“ From the father and son. I know them
both well.”
“In what way do you account for the trans-
mission of such intelligenc e?"
'.‘ The mother's spirit may have communi- -
cated it to him. I have had several remark-
able instances Of a similar character to those
I have cited in my own life."
“ Do you believe in verbal messages from
the spirit world as well as spirit impres—
sion 2"
“ Stepping away from necromancy and
things of that sort, there are persons, I be-
lieve, who are messengers of the spirit
wOrld.”
“ By what do they come into possession of
this power ?"
“ Faith is a condition. These persons yield
themselves tothe influence. Others through
them ,by consenting and exercising faitb,may
receive communications. ”
“ Is moral character a condition ?”
“ Bad spirits may communicate through
bad persons."
“Do you believe is the theory that the
spirits of the dead are fa'Iniliar with the con-
dition and acts of the living ?”
“ Just as the angels rejoice over a reputant
sinner, our dead friends are familiar with our
companions. A great army of evil spirits
are the companions of the wicked. While
it is beautiful to celebrate All Souls' Day in
praying for the dead, it is a wonder to one
that nothing is said of the dead praying for
us, which is a great Bible truth. It is stated
in Revelation that the prayeIs of saints are
as precious incense ascending from golden
censors." _
“ Is it not unusual for a clergyman to de-
clare his belief in the communication of
spirits P”
“It is exceptional for one to take up the
subject and treat it logically and philosophi-
cally. Many clergymen speak of the exis-
tence of spirits in a sentimental way and for
rhetorical effect.”
“ May they not do this and yet not believe
in Spiritualistic doctrines f" ‘
" They do wrong if they do.”
“ How long have you :entertained your
theories on this subject 2"
" For twenty years."
, Voting 3 Butter-:Blllfora Ballot.
Our.Plymouth correspondent writes: In
1849 the vote for representative was a tie,
and on the second vote cast the Hon. John
C. Lewis was elected and chosen speaker of
the house. Now, November 7th, the vote
was again a tie, and on the second day the
majority for the democratic representative
is said to be one. It would however, have
been a tie the second day had not the mod-
erator, who is a democrat, allowed a man to
vote twice: The man had been to the polls
and voted but returned a while after in
search of a butter bill that he had lost and
thought he had deposited in the box instead
of a democrat vote. The moderator told
him he might vote again, but that when
they came to count the votes, if ;thay did
not find said butter bill, they should throw
out one vote, namely the one he put in last.
So the man voted again! Sure enough the
butterbill was in the box. By throwing
away the butter bill it elected a representa-
tive. Whether any action will be taken on
the matter I have not learned.

MATRIMONIAL INTsmoaNon—“Is it a
fact,” asked one Austin young lady of sooth;
er Austin young lady, “ that you have con-
seated to marry young Spooney, and are go-
ing to be married right off." '
“ Yes, we are engaged.”
“ Why; he has not got any money, he is
ugly, and he is dying: with consumption.
He won’t live two months.”
“That’s the very reason I marry him‘.
Black is so becoming to me, that I ought to
have been a widow yearsand years ago.”—
