Persons leaving the city for the sammer, or &ny portion of it,cam have Tux Stae mailed to their address for such time as they desire, at the rate of fifty cents per month. Orders, accem- panied by the money, should beseat to the bust- ees office of the paper. presen er ‘That there have been repeated and gross vio- lations of law by some few of the magistrates and constables of this city there is no doubt; the sufferers by the petty exactions and illegal seizures of these licensed harptes being mainly those who are ignorant of their rights, or know- ing the law are too poor to bring their perseca- tors to the bar of justice for their cruel extor- tions. Admitting these facts, it ¢s not just to assert (as some do) that our magistrates may be divided into two classes—the knaves and the fools. The majority of them are men of in- tegrity and intelligence. Bat less serupalous and more ignorant magistrates do a large por- tion of the business, some relentless creditors preferring them in the same way that they pre- fer a constable without a conscience to collect the judgment when rendered. The Congres- sional exemption law, published in Tae Star a few days since, is violated every day, because the poor no suffer from its violation find that it costs more in the long run to obtain Justice than submit to the exaction. To illustrate A has a judgment against B for a debt, and he gives it to a constable who takes out execution, and finding no property of B's to levy upon but exempted property takes some articles which by the law are exempted. The only remedy ef B is to sue out a writ of replevin which he pro- ceeds to do, having to give bond to the District of Columbia to return the goods replevied if judgment is given against him, and he has to | pay about ten dollars costs to obtain the writ ‘Then it is tried before a magistrate and as the constable is defended by lawyer, it is neces- sary that the plaintiit, B, shall alsoemploy a lawyer at an additional expense of five or ten dollars; then the constable has as many. post- ponements af the case as car be had for the purpose of tiring the plaintitf, who if a working man must lose twoor three days. If | judgment is rendered in favor of B the consta- ble appeals to the Cirenit Court, and from three months to a year must elapse before the | trial comes off there, a lawyer being necessary eople &.

But in casea where he pro- e.eds ministerially, rather than judicially, if he acts corruptly, he is liable to an action at the suit of the party, as well as an Information at the suit of the state.” In a future article we propose te cite the acts of Congress detining and limiting the powers of magistrates and constables in civil cases, and to refer to other points bearing om this gubject, tn which so many people are interested. -see- The executive committee of the Wisconsin state grange of the Patronsof Husbandry ata meeting held yesterday adopted a resolution re- pudiating the recent action of the Dodge coun. ty grange calling a state convention at Milwau- Kee on the 15th of Angust, and issued an order to the granges throughout the state directing them to disregard the call, and not to bind themselves to the furtherance of any political #@cheme in direct opposition to one of the cardi- nal principles of the order. There is a natural tendency among the granges in some of the ‘Western states, where the order is the strongest, Zowards participating in political movements, Bnd it is extremely doubtful whether or net the Organization can long retain its non-political ©haracter. Leading men of the order, however, mre strenuously opposed to interfering in politics, and assert that the moment the organization does this its power for good will be gone for- ever. The inevitable result of introducing poli. | tics into the order would be dissension among its members, and this, its founders and leaders, elysire especially to avoid. +200: A domestic or nouse-to-house telegraph has recently been established in New York city, and the company have a central office in each of a number of convenient districts.

If a policeman is wanted the fact is eommanicated by pulling twice, and if your hoase ison fire you can summon aid at once by pulling three times. This is certainly handy to have in the house; but not mueh of a precaution against burglars, who would be apt to cut the wires be- fore entering. +s0e- Senator Sumuer has again taken occasion to aumounce himself in favor of equal mghts for the colored man, &c., &c., ete., ete.

Winston, and the great company of which be is the president, that I | cannot permit it to remato altoge:her onsuswered. Mr. Homans is an Actuary of groat experience and reputation, and fur many years faithfully served the Matual Life Insurance company, of New York, and was handsomely compensated therefor. Unfortunately the applicaticns made to bim for his Professional serv: came #0 numerons and so profitable that he gradu- ally negtected his duties in the “Mutual Life,” al- lowed the Actuarial Department to become mach confused and in arrears, and firally furnished work- ing formule for computing divideads, which were #0 questionable as to lead to their reference to such distinguished tlemen as Professor W. H. C. Bartlett,(then of West Point, now Actuary of the company ,) Professor Church,and Professor Peirce (of the U. 8. Coast Survey), whose patient and in- borious investigation, and very able report, failed to sustain Mr. Homans, and caused serious changes to be made in his formule. The soreness and in- subordination exhibited by Mr. Homans after this, together with @ continuance of the negleet of oa referred to above, led the Trustess to discharg him, That part of his card which leads the pubtic to believe that he left in a fit of virtuous indigna- tion is sheer nonsense: he left the company becanse the Trnstees discharged him,and the Trustees dis- charged him because he neglected his duty. I: is not now surprising that he has done his best since that date to injure the company, and slander and malign ite venerable president, but it is sur- prising that aman of Mr. Homans’ character and standing, shoul ccnspire with sandry persons of lees repute, di-charged clerks and othera,to re- Yepge himself, by bitter abuse of the Mutual Life Insurance company, and be found before an investi- ating committee, a swift witness, so blinded by rage and mortifiestion as mot to see that his own svidence, if accepted astra, bore more hardly on | iself than on any other officer of the company, h having been its trusted Actuary and Auditor, fully guizant «f every act complained of,and only waking upto a sense of the wrongs of policy-hold- ers, upon finding himself discharged for persistent neglect of duty. He speaks; perhaps naturally, frem his point of view), with creat contempt of the Trustees, and yet it is probable that it would be difficult to pick out 36 gentlemen more distinguished for int-grity, ability, wealth, and prominence in all business enierprises than this very board which discharged him from fice. He objects violently to policy holders con- fiding their proxtes to Mr. Winston, aud denounces system fvet he heartily approves of proxies when ntinsted to him, or to any o of the hungry applicants who look to achange of ad. ministration for permanent office or fat pickings, As regards the charges themselves, against Mr. Winston and the Mutual Life Insurance Company, L only wish to say, that all that were proven were in highest degree trivial, technical, and unim- portant, and involved no peconiary loss whatever, For twenty years President Winston has labored frem early morning till late evening in the service of the Company; the first to enter and the last to leave its busy offices. To-day hecan proudly point to sixty million dollars of cash asscts, belonging to the policy-holders, and say truthfully that not one lollar has ever been lost during his Stewardship, by breach of trust, defaleation, or insecure inv: ments; and that the cash receipts from new business are larger this year than ever before im the history of the company, In New York, Mr. Winston is too well-known to require defence, not only his vigorous and able management of business, but for bis active benevolence, and genuine pirty; here, however, he snot so well-known, and I esteem it aduty nol * ploaeure to vindicate him and the company whose MeerI am, from the unworthy aspersions of Mr. Sheppard Homans.
