TirronTANT Decision in Favoii of.I.ifk Issni-
Ance Policy Hoi.dkiis. Judge Thompson, of the
fiuprerae Court of 1'ennsylvauia, has luteiy. given a
decision that Inures largely to the beneiit of lile
inaurorn. The case arose on ou oppciil from the
District Court of this city in the case of Heliuo
against a life insurance company, aul Is worthy of
perusal by all Interested In the subject. The abstract
of the case is as follows:
1. A custom among life Insurance companies to
allow thlrt v davs'grace for the nayiuunl of pri-iniuins,
notwithstanding a clause of forfeiture for non-pay
ment on the day tney uecome uue exinw 111 mepjii
rv. is valid to Interpret the contract, aud may be
nroved bv the insured.
2. Evidence that the practice of the company was
to irive not ce of the time at v. ntcn tne premiums leu
due, and that thev omitted to do so on the occur
rence of the default in question, or that they so dealt
ivtii the insured us to nutneroir tier guard, is a.l-
missible as evidence, from which the jury niuy draw
the conclusion that the Insured was misled Ly the
company, the company cannot take advantage of a
default which they have themselves contributed to
, . or encouraged.

Emerson was Baln arrested and taXob. before that
magistrate, where he admitted that the letter was
Intended for him, and stated the circumstances
under which it came to the city. It Becras that ho,
first of nil, purchased a London Time, and In it
found the death of a wealthy gentleman. Ante-datlna
a letter, he wrote over the initial K. to "My kind
buncfactor." The substance of tho letter was that
the writer was confined In tho Elkton, Md., fall, on
an unjust charge, and that the money which "my
kind benefactor" had last sent to him was all gone.
He was also Bick, and was being attended to by a
Dr. Hawlcv, who with his wife was deeply interested
In his case Tlio doctor Was so positive of his inno
cence Wmt, In conjunction with some friends, he was
about procuring a pardon, which would require
niorrey. The tone of the letter was to convey to tho
wife, or the executors of tho deceased gentleman's
estoe, that the writer was an Illegitimate child, who
had been sent to this country, and who was beln
supported by the deceased. "B." also directed that
funds be sent In care of Dr. Hawlcv.
Accoinnanviiur this doenment was anotner episuo
signed Dr. Hawloy, in which that gentleman writes
that, being sure t lint "IV was of noble blood, he had
taken considerable Interest In his case. A pardon
was bchiK procured, the expenses of Yfhlch were
being defrayed by the doctor, who relied Implicitly

The Rkiuts of Lunatics. For the sake of this
class, the number of which Is largely on the Increase
In our midst, we should judge from the number of
new newspaper enterprises that are warming into
life, we publish the following extract from a decision
of ex-Judge F. Carroll Brewster, made Immediately
beforo he left tho bench to accept the position or the
highest law olllccr of the Commonwealth, in tiie
case of one Joshua Isaacs. In the proceedings it
appeared that a Commission of Lunacy was ap
pointed under the act of April 20, 1809, but that tho
commission did not examine the lunatic himself, but
relied on other people's testimony, thus defeating
the very object of the wise statute which excited so
much feeling in the community, both pro aud con,
at the time of its passage only a few months ago:
"It rIho arprars that the allogod lunatic was, during the
execution ol the coimms.simi, in couliuomcnt in an inxane
aeyliun. Pergonal service of notice of tlio time and place
of tho mooting was made in due form upon the respon
dent, but of what avail to him wa it to nive him such a
warning and keep him in custody? Of cuu-so he could
not attond, rjaa no opportunity oi commuting his accusers
or croH-exaniiniiifr the witnesses. It i no answor to this
to say that he has been found a lunatic Wo must gourd
heie suaiobt all posbiblo inistajces, and wo Uinrerore hold
that
,wncti
'never it is possible to do so, tho ilcfcnilant should
be brutiKht belore
the jury and huvo the tallest opportu-
nity for detenle.
I it is hint.'erus tn the ratiomlcnt or tool horn to
adopt this cooise, the coinmisbionor anil .jury should goto
t be asylum, and n't only 100, but examine the nlloged
lunatic.
'"i'hcFP remarks, of course, have no application to a case
where the replutlent is at large. Hat too record ought to
show whether he is in confinement or at liberty, and if
ttip former, the imiuisitiou should bei(r vhim atrju h."
' 'J'hib view is sustained by authority Hi iuht. Rep. 1SI ; 1
lim b. ch. in, and i: couliruied by our sense of ju-tice."
The report of the commission was therefore re
committed. OrTRAi.EOus cnNpncT At noon to-day, as the
students of the Woman's Medical College were
leaving the clinic of the Pennsylvania Hospital, they
were surrounded by a large number of the male stu
dents, who were lying iu wail in the yard of the hos
pital. As the ladies made their way out, they were
UBsuiled Willi geers, insulting remarks, and howls.
The scoundrels followed the females as far ns Eighth
street, continuing their noisy demonstrations and
raising considerable excitement amou the other
pedestrians. All this was done, und not au arrest
was made by auy of the blue-coated fellows who
always manage 10 be about when they are not
wanted.

The latest of Mr. Dergh's benevolent manifesta
tions has been that of bloodthirstiness. Recently
his private rooms, at Fourth and Broadway, have
broken out Into a display of firearms. Hitherto he
had been remarkable for his peaceable tendencies
and his distaste for anything remotely resembling a
pistol. The present manifestations are merely the
latest phase of his love of the lower
animals. If any man has a horse or a donkey that
won't go, on acconut of a broken leg, or any other
dislocation that renders recovery impossible, let
that man send for me, says Mr. Bergh, and it will
give me great pleasure to shoot the animal's brains
out. Notices to this eil'ect have been poste np at
police headquarters, In the station-houses, and at
several other public places. The headquarters of
the S. P. C. A. are converted Into a perfect arsenal,
and all the functionaries have received implicit In
structions to be ready to shoot out the brains of any
animal whenever such service should be necessary,

and. last and least, tlio Common Council, .all are
going to be present at that unveiling. Apropos of
this, it is said that Commodore Vnnderbllt wants to
buv hp Sing Sing, and oifers to build a new and
lirst-dass tail, and trlve SJimi.ihjo in addition, if (iover
nor Hoffman and the Legislature will only let him
have it. So runs the world away. Ouo man con
tents himself with leasing opcra-lionscs, and another
buys up prisons. In this last transaction, if the
Commodore would unveil his purpose simultane
ously with the unveiling of the statue, ho would
cun fer a boon upon the community whoso curiosity
he has awakened. lie says nothing about furnish
ing the new prison witn reaiy-inatie jaii-uirus, or
about tun ing up or oil tuose in tne present sing sing,
and his fiieuils regard the proposition as t,he chime
rical fancy of a too much moneyed mau.
Mnrrlzi-k and bin Squabble.
Mr. Maretzek has already had a squabble with his
simiiuff birds. Ho refuses to put as much sugar uud
duckweed as they would like between the golden
wires of their cage. Miss Jenny Laudsmanu is a
young lady belonging to an excellent laniily in this
cltv. and possessed of very promising vocal powers.
Previous to the commencement of the season she
was regularly engaged as a member of his company.
and expected to make her drbut last Wednesday
night, Identlc-ul with that of Madame Caro

ever. Mr. Marttzek came to tho conclusion
tiint.it would lie rash to entrust tho rule of "A.u

Georgia, called ftt tho W'hlto House to-day, and in
vited tne msident to attend the Georgia State
Agricultural Fair, which commences on the 16th.

Wlthaiit Foundation
The statement that Secretary Boutwcll had sent
an agent to Europo to inquire Into tho feasibility or
negotiating a four per cent, loan with capitalists
there is without foundation. Infact.no such step
is contemplated. The Secretary has various oifers
from largo European capitalists, proposing to take
the whole or any part or our public debt at a reduced
rate of interest, but none of them have been acted
on as yet, nor will they be considered until action Is
had by Congress.

Despatch to the Associated rret.
Washington, Nov. 6 Commodore ITirBlns and
Surgeon McNulty arrlxcd here to-day from Wil
mington, N. C, on their way to New York. The
former la lu full naval and the latter in ;hair
dress costume. The surgeon contradicts a state'
ment which has been published to the detriment of
Commodore Iligglns. The facts are that before
leaving Montauk Point the commodore was severely
wounded in one or his eyes by the parting or a
hawser, ami when he reached Wilmington the was
suffering severely from the effects of the accident.
The Burgeon suggested that the commodore's wile
be sent for to attend him. He consenting,
the was telegraphed Ito come to .Wilmington,
Instead of the lady being In Wilmington where the
vessel was seized, she did not there until six days
after, In obedience to the telegram.
The probability is that the Culta will be bonded.
At least the owners of the vessel were at last ac
counts engaged In proceedings with that end in
view.
How the Crew Conduct Themselves.
Wilmington papers of yesterday, just received
here, speak In highly favorable terms of the manner
in which the olllcers aud crew of the Cuba conducted
themselves during the Judicial proceedings in their
case, and state that two of those held to ball have
ah-eady.left that city, and the others under bonds
will soon follow also for Ncw York.
Jllottnt a Colored Church Itllnslon-Flght Be
Iwocu HowdleM and Police The Latter
Knitted.
Late lust night, as services were being held In the
colored church mission, where a revival is in pro
gress, a disturbance arose between a portion of the
persons attending there. Officer Lawler, of the
Seventh precinct, ordered tho rioters to disperse.
He was resisted, however, and Officer Brown, of
the same precinct came to his assistance. As the
officers,; were attempting t.o arrest some of the most
riotous of the ruffians, they were suddenly set upon
by a gang of men and their weapons taken away,
and they were fearfully beaten. Somo held the
officers while others beat them with clubs and
stones; others again Inflicting severe gashes with
knives or razors. Olllccr Brown's head was cut in
several places, his. Jaw broken, and the injuries In
other portions of the body nro bo severe that his
recovery Is doubtful. Officer Lawler's injuries are
also very severe. As soon as tidings of the riot
reached the police station the whole force of the
precinct was ordered out, but on arriving at the
church tlio rioters had dispersed. Four of the rioters
were arrested and six or eight more are known to
tho police.
Judge Kelley Oppose Reciprocity with
Cunuilii.
Judge Kelley, of your city, did not succeed in
seelDg the President last night, but this morning he
was at the White House early, and had an Interview
01 over nn nour. ins nusiness was to oppose the ne
gotiation of a reciprocity treaty with the Dominion
of Canada, aud to present some facts about, the
tariff. He laid before the President a formidable
and well-arranged mass of figures taken from the
bookB of thel Treasury Department, going to Bhow
that since the expiration of the treaty with Canada
we have been gainers to the extent of millions or
dollars In the shape of revenue, and that our export
trade had increased with tlio provincials instead of
diminished.
The PresidtAt, In conversation with Judgo Kelley,
showed that he had been studying the subject, and
was to some extent posted upon its details. Ho
spoke particularly against abolishing the tariff' on bi
tuminouscoal, and said such a step would take from
1 the reasury a large amount annually. These facts
he has no doubt learned during his tour through the
coal regions of Pennsylvania. Altogether tho Presi
dent does not appear to be in favor of revising the
Reciprocity Treaty. He requested Judge Kelley to
leave with him facts and ligures which he had col
lected, so that he might examine them more
thoroughly. It looks now as If Kelley had, to use Ills
own words, '-knocked Reciprocity lu the head.''
The Tnrlll )ui-tloii.
With regard to the tariff Mr. Kelley explained to
the President that the best plan would be to put all
articles of raw material which wo do not produce on
the free list, and to reduce the tariff' ou articles
manufactured from raw material which des not
come In competition with our own production,
while It should be advanced on all articles Imported
which can lie produced and manufactured In tills
country. With these ideas tho President expressed
concurrence, and he thought such a plan would
simplify the tariff and afford a kind of protection
needed to foster and encourage homo industry,

Judge Kelley left at noon to-day for Philadelphia.

His Letter to the American Ttrnnch
of the
livnnue Ileal Asaonlntion.
To ficv. Leonard W, Bacon, Brooklyn,
Rbvbkknd Sir: I am as. much gratified as sur
prised at the honor you ar5 disposed to do to tho
few discourses I have published in Kurope. Soma
of them are actually the production or my pen, but
these are very tew, and relate to circumstances of.
time and place which I rear will have no Interest
for American renders. The others, more Important
in their subject, since they are part of the course or
conferences instituted at Notre Dame by the Bishop
of Paris, are extant only in detached parts, taken
down hastily In shorthand, and the-gsps filled by an
imperfect summary. I should have been glad, I
ocknowledgo, If I could have brought to America
something less unworthy of the sympathy with which
I have been received here, and which I shall always
reckon among the great honors and tho purest joys
of my life. Such as they aro, however, I commit
these rude productions to the Indulgence of your
readers. Frenchman and Catholic as I am, I pre
sent them, through your hands, to that great Ameri
can republic of which you are a citizen, to those nu
merous and nourishing Protestant churches of which
you aro a minister. I am proud of my France,
but I deem it one of Its most solid glories to have
contributed to tho independence of this noble)
country, which it has never ceased to love, and
which shall some day learn to imitate a people
with whom liberty is something else thau a barren
theory or a blood vtpractleo ; with whom the cause of
labor Is never confounded with that of revolution,
and never divorced from that of religion; and who,
rearing under all forms and all denominations Its
houses of prayer and its houses of commerce and
finance, crowns Its noisy and productive week with
ine sweetness una majesty 01 us orirn uuy. -auu
on the seventh day It ends tho work which which It
has done, and rests the next from all its work
which It has mado." I remain faithful to my
Church, find if I have lifted up my protest
against the excesses which dishonor It and
seem bent on its ruin, you may measure the in
tern ity of my love for It by the bitterness of my
lamentation. When He who Is in all things our
Master and our cxnmplo armed Himself witli
the scourge of cords against tho profaners of
tho Temple, His disciples remembered that It was
written "The zeal of Thy house hath eaten me up."
I continue faithful to my Church, but I am none the
less sensible of the interest which will be taken in
other churches In what I may say or do within the
pale of Catholicism. Furthermore, I have never
denied that the christian communions separated
from Rome were disinherited of the Holy Ghost, aud
without a purt in the immense work of the prepara
tion of the kingdom of cod. In my relations with
some of the most pious and the most learned of their
members, I huvo experienced lu those depths of tho
soul where illusion is impossible the unutterable
blessing of the communion of saints. Whatever
divides us externally in space and time vanishes like
a dream before that which unites us within the
grace of the same God, the blood of the same
Christ, the hopes of the same eternity. Whatever
eur prejtdlcc, -tmr alienations, or our Irritations,
ondcr the eye of (iod.who secth what wo cannot see,
under Ills hand, which leailetli ns whither we woulct
not go, we are all laboring in common for the up
building of that Church of the future which shall be
tho Church of the past in Its original purity and
beauty ; but shall have, besides, -ho depth of its
analysis, the breadth of Its synthesis, the experience
or its tolls, Jits struggles, and its griefs, through all -these
ceuturles. In the sad days of schism aud cap
tivity tho word of the Lord came to tho Prophet Eze
kiel, saying, "Thou son ol man, take thee one stick:
and write upon it, 'For Judah and for the children
of Israel, his companions;' theu take another and
write upon it, -l or Joseph, the stick of Kphralru
and all the house of Saul, his companion, anil
Join them one to another Into one stick, and
they shall become 0110 In thy hand." Eze
ktel xxxvil, 1(1-17. To mo likewise, who am the
least or Christians, in those visions of
the soul which are never refused to our devout aspi
rations, the Lord hath spoken. Ho has placed In my
hand these two beloved and withered branches
Rome and the children of Israel who follow her;
the churches ol tho Reformation and tho nations
that are with them. I have pressed them together
011 my heart, and under the outpouring of my tears
and prayers I have so joined them that henceforth,
