Special Dispatch to The Chirago T'ribune, BosroN, Oct. 30.—George H. Kingsbury, Assistant Receiviog Teller of the National Bank of Redemption, was nrrested to-day for cmbozzling the funds of tho bank, By his confession it appears thut at the time of the November fire, two yoars ago, e had takon from tho funds of tho bank §500. From that time he has gone on until the smount of the dofalcation now is about $6,000, He had been in the employ of the bank siuce May, 1805, and was gener- ally respected sod implicitly trusted. The cuuse of his utenling was doubtless the nocessi- tion of living, as ho Lss a wife and ono child, aad recoives & aalary of but $800 o year. It is roported thut ho lived very modestly in the snb- urbs, and bas no extravagant vices. Tho manver in which Mr. Kingsbury has from time to time embozzled the funds of the bank, hus been to seeurg lettera containing checks oud drafts re- ceived from other bank and acconnt for them us g0 much ecash on hand, wyils in renlity heo took the mouoy that tho drafts and ohecks reprosented and put it in his own pocket. Whenover a bank would complam that thero was & mistako in it nccount, Kimngsbury would roctify it by transferring tho deficiency to the nccount of auother bank, In this manner the fraud bas boen carried on, and, by o series of falso ontrios, was kopt from tho Lnowledge of the ofiicors. ~ Whenover tho day came for an examination of the funds of tho bunk Mr, Kingsbury, by false entries, made his nc~ count sppear correct, but the recsut frequoent oc- curtence of mistaken in thestatoments seut tooth- orbanks contirined the suspicions of the officers that Mr. Kingepury was & dofanlter. Having strong suspicions of tho source and nature of tho trouble, a plan was devised to deteot and unravel tho mystery. Accordingly, on Thursduy tho Cashier, Mr, Presby, placed s letter on Mr, Kingsbury's dosk containing a check, and the Iutter soon appropriated it to himsolf. Kings- bury was thon nccused of having atolon monoy, aud strong proofs of his guily Were discoverat by tno finding of drafis and ohecks in his posaession, the actual cash value of which Wad aout $24,000. o andmitted having taken o all sbout £30,000. His nffalrs bad becomo so cowplicated, aud the number of complainty was §0 gmnfl, that, to \»rcvom the Cashior discovering tho condition of things, it bocame nocossary for him to ot possoesion of all lotters coming to tha Lauk from othor banks, which accounts for the large sum found in his possession. Somo two yoard ago & disorcpancy of 2,300 was found in the accounts of tho bauk, and suepiclon was direoted to two clors, rosulting tn their diu- charge. Mr, Xagsbury now coufesses that Lo took the monoy, and that the clorks ware in- noveut. ¥he Glendonning Cnase—Oponing of the Defense — Impenching Maxy Pomeroy’s Charnctor, From the New York World, Oct, 39, Tho defendo made no formal oponing, and ealled Mius Jonnie Dogpott ns the firat witnoss.

From the New York T'imes, Oct, 20, Now that the truth concorning tho cruel mur- dor.of Samuel J. Jones, committed at Oyster Bay, Juno 26, 1879, has boen confossed by its vorpetrators, it will not be amiss to recall tho main foatures of the tragedy us they were first presented to the public after its occurreuco. Samuel J. Joves wis kuown to the inhabitants of Oystor Ba}y as * the Recluse,” Jiving-alone in a framo building, a short distnuce from the rail- road track. Mo was tho grandson of Chief-Jus- tieo Jones, and naphow of Chaucsllor Jones. Ho was o mau of learning, master of five Ianguages, aud o gontleman of the old achool. At the timo of his death Lo was 70 yoars old, Lut retninod his. vigor and good bhealth to s ioarked degree. Tlo was gonerally belloved to Lo ‘n misor, and possossed of monoy, which the ignorant nogro settlors in lis vicinity bolioved was honrded nway T bhis house, n tho 27th s farm-band, Poter Maloney, first discovored tbo dond body of hiu wmaslor in the woll with bis skuil benten in, but no cluoe to the murderera, Muloney’s daughbter had scon tho doconsed putting out the firo lit by the asuassing to attrace his attention, and had aftorward soen Mr. Jonos going to bis house. Nothing more was discovored until tho next day, s above reluted; and thon tho community bo- cuame awaro of the bloody deed thut Lad been dona within & stono's throw of half a dozon houses, Thero followed inquost and suspicions, and the rewards for the capture of those who nad killed “1bo Reeluse,” ~‘Che aftair died out, and seomed to be quite forgotten until the wirest of Jaclwon aud Jarvis, who have since counfeesed their guilt, With Juckuon's story the public is already familinr, Now comos the other man's: While Lowis Jarvis was being conveyed from North Hempstead to Jamaicw vesterday, o was informed by bis custodinus that Jacksun had made a confossion of tho murder. Jarvis there- upou told his versiop of the tragedy, which fully implicates Jackson in the crimo. ~ fo admittod ibat the murdor was promoditased, but ingistod that it was fivst spoken of by Elbert Jackson, who told Jarvis' wife thot ho iutonded to Lill Jones, Jackson and biwsolf planned thot a fire wag to be set in the vrush to attract the old man oaway {rom the Liouse, and that they were to liein wait and waylay him on his return, The impor- tant point of differonce between Jackson’s con- fesston and that of Jaryis is, that tho former said 1o was not presant when the muvder was com- mitted, whilo tho latter insista that he was, ond that Jackson even cut tho hickory club and struck tho first blow with it, and afterstard throw the old man into tho woll. Itis ovident, nowever, that the club was cut by a teft-tandod wman, and, curiously cnough, Jarvis is left-hand- ¢d, oud it wae thouglt probable ut the Coro- ner's wquost that tho wound was inflicted by & left-lunded person etriking from bebind. It is protty evident, therofore, thai, while eack of the prisouors is trying to make the other the miore guilty, both wore present and tpok part in tho murdor. Jarvis aoys that ha sot fire to the Drush, sud that, when Jones came to put tho tira out, Jackson slipped Lebiud the well and kopt in concoslment, As the old man passed the well on his return, s blow was stiuck with the elub which Lnocked him down and stunned him, wheu Juckson took his watch and chain, rifled his pockots, and attemped to throw him down the well. = At this moment the old man revived, and began to struggle vio- lontly, but he was overpowered aud pitched in headlong, clutching wildly at the rope and tho walls of tho well as hie wont down, ‘The old man bepgod thom pitcously not to kill him, but thoy slung down miseles upon Lum. 1l then solzew the woll-rope, and lind almost reachod the top of the well, when Jackson picked up a heavy, gharp-edged stone, with which ho dashed his victim's brains ont. Relaxing bis hold, the old man dropped to the bottom of the well, aud all was silent. To make ussurance doubly nure, however, several lurge stones aud a heavy chop- ping-block waro thrown down upon the inui- wate forta below. Tho house was then hurriedly rangncked, nnd two tin boxes wlth a small roil of bills wore found. ! Putting together tho different atories told by the implicated persons, itis judgod that tho whole smount realized by this horriblo murder did not excoed $50 or #60. Thero wera some 10,000 of United Bintes bonds aud othor securi- tics in the honse, whick were uutonched, aud whon asked why heleft them bobind, Jarvig suid, with a. shrug, * Humph! wo dida'’t know nothin' ukgut no bondal™ Whon askod how the watch hetl boon disposed of, ho insisted that Jackson had it, and buried it, _Jarvis' wifo, how- ever, testified that ho (Jarvis) had it and buried it. 'Pho chaln, ho said, wae still 1 his wifo's posession. Ono old eilver dollur was still some- whero in the house. When Jarvis had concluded his confession, he appearsd much relioved, and remarked that hio Thad not folt so lappy since Jones wa killed, not having haa ono moment's comfort sinco tho crime was committed. Lowis Jurvie was_subscquontly brought from Jawmaica to South Oystor Buy in churge of Con- atable Wilkingon and Detective Payne, 'Tuo roads about 8 miles from the dopot were searched, under tho dircction of Jurvis, for the buriod Lfluudm‘. Aftor an hour's diligont scarch, a cag- ov containing n number of gold lockoty, an old coin, and a bunch of koys, was found, The murderer then directod tho oflicers in search for tho watch worn by Jones ou tho aight of the tragedy.

Sketch of Its Advantages and Growth. llow lhevProlécllon Life Carries on Business, What It Has Done During the Last Four Years. The Inferences. THE LIFE-INBURANGE AGITATION, The subject of life insuranco lhag long been one of the moak profound fnterost to tho whols clvilized world, and the intorost . in tho question would bo- intensely incroased if its growth, syu- tom, and praotical operatign, togothar with its presont magnitude, could ‘be ncourately given. And, a8 wo hiave from timo to timo placed boforo our rondors facts, tiguros, and detailsof the diffor- ont commorclal interests of this city, wo will at this timo tako the subject of life insurance, treating it, a8 wo havo other intorests, impar~ tally. The importance of lifo Iusuranco is too woll undoratood at this day to require any vory - oxtendod romarks, further than to recall to the roader what exporioncoe Las demonstrated, Tho wisdom of making pro- vislons for those dear to us, whilo wo aro in hoalth and prosperity, needs no argument to convince oven tho most careless, nor do life-in- aurance compsnies, and the boneflts thoy have outailed, aud are entalling, upon the human family, need farther evidonco than tons of thoueands of beautiful homes, tovantod, per- chiauco, by widows aud orphaus, who bave boon savod from & life of want, and perhaps misery and vica, through its provisions. Therefore we may properly treat Lhia subject ng A WIBE KEDIUM OF EXCHANGR, which, whon properly carried ou, all may avail themacivos of within tho Humit of their moans, I'ho foresight of ono who can see in tho distant futuro Providential interferonce with tha plany ot Yife, will cortainly induce kim or her to adopt this most excellent medium of protection ngainst the contingoucy of uutimely doath, The ad- yantagos of the system being coucodod Ly all intolligent minds, it is unnccessary to advauce any argumonts on that subject. 'I‘herc ian wide dissgroomont betwoen both sacient and modetn writors £8 {c THE ORIGIN OF INSURANCE, but cortaln it is that the underlying principles aro tound {n tables actually i oxistonce in tho time of Pliny and Plato, by which annuities wore gronted. Lifo iusurauce was first practiced in Englaad about 176 yoars ago, among clorgy- men who formod an nssocfation for the pro- toction of their familics, and by u singular coin- vidonoe it was first introduced in this country by sn association amony Episcopal olergymen ubout 100 yoars ago. It wasnot, however, until tho pasy thirty years that the systom osmo into genoral sdoption in this country, aud it was ouly during the flush timos wsucceoding the Wur "that the business assumed such vast proportions, and is now socond only to banking iu the magnitude of tho interest involvad, and the vant sums e trolled by tho oowpanies, Heuco & brief review of TILE PRESENT STATUS of the buainess aud the practical working of tho varions schomes bofore tue public will bo of aut interost to many who rely so much upon fo insurance for protection to their fanulios in the hour of need. Yrom the lifo-chart, published by tho Zerald of this city, one of the leadiug iusuranco papers of tho West, we lonrn that fifty- two lifo compauics roceived liconses from the Illlinols Insursuce Doparimont to transact business in chis Btate lass year, Forty-four m'roxtod o paid-up cash cupital of 97,201,216, and fourteon had no capital, boing operated on tho *‘mutual plan.” The fifty-tivo companies roport assots on lund, accumulated from premiums collocted tocover visis assuied, $965,105,099, Thoy report cash incoma lagt yoar of 117,877,073 to cover death-lousos of ouly 926,685,104, whilo the agents’ commisuions, ofli- cers’ salarlos, taxes, and all ochor oxpanses, amountod to $17,033,907. Tho policy-holders recoivod back $25,202,770 of their surplus pay- ments fu **dividends ;" and $16,909,157, princi- pally composed of notes, doforred promiuws, and other ablllfhflnna againat polioy-boldery, wera cancolled by lapse, surrendor, and purchase of policas, THE MOST REMARKADLE FEATURES of theaa statistics aro that it shouid be necossary to colleet $117,000,000 anuvually to pay sbout 26,000,000 doatli-lopses, and that tho sxpunses exceoded $17,000,0000 True, about $23,000,000 wat returned oy “dividonds,” and $15,000,000 writton oft’ aguinst surraunderod nud lapsed poli- cies, but thoy do not by any means account for the preat disparity botweeu the amount collected and the suw paid for doatn-losses, It i not possible that it is necessary for the policy-holders wsured in tho companies report- 1tz to the [tinois Dopurtmout to pay iv 114,000, 000 1 order to secure 24,000,000 tfo the fanilies of those who happeued to die duriug the yesr, The differenco between Lhe cost aud tho benefity aro out of all proportion, and can only be ac- counted for by tho fact that endowments and varionseavings-bank foatures foroign to renl life jnsurance Liave beon incorporated in the business, It must be apparont to anyone conversanty [4 it with the Ifimo‘y system of life-iusurance companies, lovying toll on the promiums bofore they ‘reach tho . compamos, of from 20 to 50 por oont, that it is absurd to Buppose investmonts can bo profitavly mado in that way, aside from tho risk polioy-holders must nocessarily run of forfeiting all, throngh failure or neglect to comply with some oondition of_their policies. But thore is ANOTHER VIEW - of this matter, of more importance, {o the poor people especially, than the withdrawal from tho pockots of the polioy-holders and loglung up in non-producing corporationa over 300,000,000, which is, that o system whick requives an ad- vanco pavment of about fivo times the cost of the immedinte bonofits secured, places the ad- ventagos of lifo insurauce just 50 much beyoad tho reach of the poorer classes, whose familios most necd its protoecting.shiold. This abuormul condition of tho bnsiness iy producing the inovitavle resuits, and a largs number of companios have, during tho past fow yoara, transforred their risks to otliercompanies, and retired from tho fleld, cithor for wank of publio patronage, or from inability to compate witli the largor companios; but miost gonarally, ag Elizur Wright aptly oxprosses it, ** whon it comes a famine amnong frogs, tho largo oncs swallow tho littto onos.” As o further indication that A REACTION has set in, wo also loarn from the Herald chinrt that, whilo the 52 companies issued and rovived 102,118 policies fnat yenr, 152,786 termiuated by lupse, surronder, und rofusal, This indieates vory unsottled stute of business, and shows that it is only temporary insurance the groat majority onjoy. n{'iona attempta havo boen made by different classes of persons and Boclotios, such as clorgy- men, railrond-conductors, expressmen, tola- graphers, Odd Follows, und Musons, to orgunize mntual-benellt sociotios, but with only lLimited succoss. ‘This may bo partinlly accounted for ns follows: Au oxtended mewmbemhip is ossontial to Beoure a falr average mortality; it Is noceseary to ba constantly add- ing new members to take the place of thoye who drop out, and it ia vltall{ important that nono but sound risks be accepted, It is uoarculy nec- eadury to 8ay that theso elomants of success aro in & meagurs wanting in clags nnions and wocie- tws, DBenldes which, the managemont is gen- oraliy dolegatod to new and inoxperionced per~ sons who suon tire of tha onorous aud wnvemu- unorative dutics, Still we liavo reason to know that many of thewo nssoofalions aro con- ferring groat Dbonefits on the families of thair “mombers, aud that, too, at a aosl much below the ordinary insurauce rates. It mny also bo said for them that whon ono of thom closes or falle it does not fmlern!ly do 80 with any considerabla anouut of its membera' monsy, a4 iu the case of regular life-inanrance companios holding large amounts of their membora’ money {u renorye. About four yoars ago, i PROTEOTION LIVE-TSBURAKCE COMPANY was started under the immediafo manugomont of L. P, Hilliard, and other woll-known eitizeus, t0 be operated on the mutual contribntion ptan,— that ie, to Hmit the cost to the actual losses ox- porienced each nonth, and fo Hmit the expenses ln & fixed and definite sum anuually. "'l Protection started out with & latge casl capital, more than sufilolont to comply with the 1aw, 40 that it at ance secured tho contidanco of its mombors, and wau fully responsible for ite obligations. Many of courso regarded it aa u doubtful ex- petiment, whioh, dood, it apposred; but patlent, perslatent labor and eflcient mausge- ment bave placed the Protection in iho front rank of tho lifo-lusursuco companicd_of tho country, Indeed, wo bolleve its rocord sa to numbor of policiea Issued, amount paid for lonscs, aud the cheapnoss of cost, Is unaqualed by nll;y othor compauy of the esmo age In the world. Tho plans of this Company are easily undot- atood and peculiar to it, Starting on the solf- ovidont principla that the losies in all com: panigs, and the oxpongen tvo, mukt bo paid by tha mombors, it mukes a dofinilo contract in rogard to thoso two items, Ench mombor s rated ne- cording to ngo ond the amount of his policy oach nionth for the actual lonses experiouced, o may keep A deposit in advance to pay this, or {m it any time during tho succoeding month ; and fo pay expouses of the Compauy n fized aunual ‘charge in mado according to the amount of policy, and heyond which the Compnny cannot Indulge in ox- travagance rt “tho policy-holder’s exponse, On this plan each nember pays the uctunl cost of Lis riuk o long ns ho continues inwurod, nud a fair stipulated sum for oxponees, and whenaver ho witudraws ho forfoits or loses nothing but his Inguranco. Ronsoning from these faots, tho Company do- clares thad thore can bo no doubt but this ix s just and equitable system ta all, nud that the Drotoction Lias domonalrated its practical merite *during tho past four yoars by paying over $750.~ 000 to tho familles of deceasod miowbors; whilo it has onch yoar added to it memborahip, now haviug abot 9,000. ‘Yo gentiomon who started the Protection and brought it to ita preseub position did not find thoir path strown with rosc, Thoy woro meb with o fierce and, in many cases, a vindictive op- position from thely rivale ;, buk the fair and com- mon-sonse principles. on which the Company s operated, sud the lmunn&r and eflicioncy of managoment, have placed the L:ung}mny Leyond belng injured by fugitive and guerrilla warfavo. Byite four years of unprocedonted success, {ho Protection can claim that it hos domonstratod tho soundness, cheapness, snd practicabllity of tho actual cost plan of life insurance.
