He said Governor Seymour had gone over President Johnson's track for the purpose of making the people believe he was right and the republican party wrong; that Governor Sey- miour had three speeches to suit the localities—one for the Ohio farmers on the high price of four and grain; the second in Pittsburg to the workingmen about the high rate of taxes, and the third to the Berks couuty democrats on the vast expense incurred during the war for transports.

Mutual vs. Active. ‘The game between these clubs yesterday, whether regarded as the return gaméor the home-and-home of the match, did not prove to be as interesting a8 was expected. The Actives did not have their full nine present, and although ap to the end of the fourth inning they gave the Mutuals all they could attend to, yet it seemed to bs a foregone conclusion that the Actives could not Win, On the fifth inning the Mutuals gave some specimens of champion bat- ting, and, assisted by loose felding, ran up 8 score of fourteen, which virtually gave them the victory and deprived the game of all further interest.

The championship is in very much of a muddle fut now, according to the opinions of some folks. ere is no law on the matter, and everybody de- cides to suit himself. Some members of the Union Club viewed the matter tn a light “altogether difter- ent from the view the all fraternity takes.’? The ambitious clubs must get together and decide on some rules to govern the case, and thus settle the disputed points. The Unions claim—or rather some of them do—that “when they and the Mutuals com- menced the series they were champions, and the match was for the championsnip. They lost the championship and the Mutuals won it before the series was concluded. The Unions defeated the Mutuals the last game, therefore winning back the championship.” it is @ very nice argument ; but what were the Mutuals and Unions playing, for in the second game of the match. ‘ne match, according to the above specious argument, was “for the championship; when the second game was Played neither the Mutuals nor Unions were cham- Pions, and yet the foolish feliows were playing for what neither of them possessed. The base ball fra- ternity may be able to see the matter in the light ey above. If itdo, then possibly the prize and lltle may go to Westchester county. During the week, besides the closing games, the Atlantics will play the home and home with the Eck- fords, on Thursday, and the Unions will play the a wane on Frday, at the Union Grounds, Brooklyn, A NEW SCHEME, 1 Bogus Life Tusurance Compantes. Within the past few months some eight or ten new schemes for insuring lives and affording’“pecuniary relief during sickness” have been started in different parts of the country. ona. side institutions of this sort are exceedingly beneficial in their operation, and, as competition would be likely to effect @ reduction of rates, any increase in their NEW YORK HERALD, number should be gladly hailed, It is feared, however, that the mushroom growth which has recently cropped up in New York, Chicago, Cmemnati, Philadelphia and other large cities was sown in anything but good faith; and should this prove to be the case it will be neces- sary to trample 1t down again as soon as possible. One suspicious fact conceruing the adventurers who have started these new schemes is that their mode of doing business is exactly similar to that of the cunning Jeremy Did- diers who #0 snecessfully manage the numer- ous “gift enterprises’? now flourishing in our midst, The first step is to engage a “temporary place of business” and a box at the Post Office. The prospectus prepared and posted, the scheme ts at once in fall operation. The following extract from the “application for membership” issued by one of these new institutions is suificient to show the main object of the projectors: Sins—I desire to become a member of your association, | representing that Lam in good health, with no disease likely to prove fatal, and am every way a fi applicant forsaid mem- rahip. I agree Fira—To pay tive dollars at the time of making this appl- ion. “*Serond-—To pay one dollar and ten cents upon the death of eacl ery member of my section wiwin thirty days | after f notice of such death. | Third—To kegp the association informed of my place of residence, and fn case of absence from or change of resi dence to appoint some one to act as iay agent In payment of dues. Failing to observe any of the above rules, I hereby forteit all claiius #gainst and all money previously’ paid to the aaso- ciation. The prospectus states that the association is divi- ded into “tive sections for men and five sections for wowen,” and that wien these sections are filled five new ones will be adopted. Each section is to con- tain 5,000 members, and “men and women are not allowed in the same section.” Section A teiudes ail »rsons between the ages of fifteen and twenty-five, those ranging from twenty-five to thirty-tive, and 80 on down to E, which contains those between ffty- ‘The sections for women are arranged in the same manner, and in view of the peculiar weakness of the gentie sex in that particular the «directors have made the cruel proviso “that any one (hat is foaad to have misstated their age will ve expelled and all pay- ments forfeited to the association.’’ Rach person pays five dollars upon becoming a member, $110 each time @ member dics be- longing the same section of which he pe & member. Each section is inde- ndent, having no connection with others. A mein- ber of one section cannot be assessed if a member of another section dies, The prospectus gives the following brief but forcible iilustration of the ope- ration of the association:— “Section A has 6,000 members, A man dies. The association pays over, within forty days, $5,000 to the heirs of the deceased.”” The circular states that ‘no one, however poor, can afford to be without the certainty that this asso- ciation presents. The payment is emali, but five dol- lars upon joining, and one doliar and ten cents occa- sionally, thus securing $5,000 to his heirs, The erage number of dollars ph person will have to pay to receive $5,000 will be $30 per year, alittle over nifty cents per week, asum easily saved from neerdt- less expenses where the loss would never be felt. ‘This makes this method of insurance cost about one- sixth what would have to be id any regular in- surance company for & $5,000 policy. It is to be remarked that, however careful the framers of the prospectus, &c., may have been over their calculations, they were not very particular in | the mater of grammar. First on the long list of “siveamene ofered by an association formed equalize t pardens of life and to diminish its riaks by combining to aid each other” we find the follow- ing:—“No panic can effect its standing. The fauds are in the bands of the members, and are, therefore, safe."? (7) The prospectus concludes with the following touch- ing appeals:— owe it to your family, if you are ® married mai and thereby providing certal rt You owe it to society, for you hat tren dependant upon the chan ‘ou owe it to your cred to make sure, in case of he payment of your debts, ‘owe it to yoursel ire the freedom of peace of Athat can only be obtained but by bec Life Insurance Association of Ne isa wide difference between the “illustra- ontained in the pro#pectus of the association and the following, but then It is to be admitted that they are drawn m opposite points of view. ‘The association “takes Mr. Smith's life and five dollars, and informs him that he has been pieced in section ©. Mr. Smith ts called upon regu. larly to forward his dues, and is “occasionally” in- formed that a member of its section has deparved this life, and that $1 10 is due to the heirs of the defunct. Smith fnaliy arrives at the conclusion that section © ia a remarkably unlealihy one, and calls at the office of the association to get acopy of the jist of mem- bers so that he may check them off himself. After considerable trouble le finds the “temporary piace of business,” but 18 surprised to learn from the Jauitor that the manager, directors and clerks are “always ont.’ Just a8 Smith begins to think things look rather queer he recetves a letter informing him that three members of lua section bave died of yellow fe in New Orleans, two been carried off by sanstroke in New York, two others to tion killed in the recent raiiroad disaster, and that tire sum of $1 1019 required for each ease—iotal, $7 70.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 31, 1868. Preparations for tho Reception of General Grant. The Grand Army of the Republic, Boya in Blue and other political organizations here, controlled mostly by hungry ofice hunters, who hope by loud demon- strations to bring themselves into the no- tice of Grant, are preparing to give the General-in-Ohief @ grand reception on his return. The friends of the General, however, declare that he will accept no sueh compliment, and the politico- military office hunters are therefore likely to have “love's labor lost.” Grant, very probably, will de- cline the honor of being indebted even for such small favors from such very diminative fry. Interfereuce of the Army in Elections. General orders have been issued from the head- quarters of the army, by command of General Grant, Publishing to the army, by direction of the Presi- dent, the provisions of the constitution and laws of the United States in relation to the election for a President and Vice President of the United States, together with an act of Congress prohibiting all per- sons engaged in the military or naval service from interfering in any general or special election in any State. . Tho Exodus of Officers and Clerks. The departments were all pretty weil thinned out to-day by the departure of the officers and clerks homeward to share in Tuesday's election, Many of the rooms in the Treasury and War Departments are almost deserted. In the Department of the In- terior the leaves of absence are no greater in number now than at any other time, the Secretary having announced it as his opinion that leaves of absence for the purpose of voting should not be granted, but that leaves would be given aa usual to any clerk who might wish to go Lome on private business. The Trouble About Supervisors. Commissioner Rollins visited Secretary McCulloch this morning and bad with him another protracted interview on the subject of completing the appoint- ments of Internal Revenue Supervisors. Nothing could be accomplished, it appeared, as from the best authority in these mutters it is ascertained that there | are still twenty vacancies remaining, aud the same number of expectants disappoinied, tt was fully believed that the Supervisors for New York and Pennsylvania wouid have been confirmed this week, but now there is no prospect of these oftices being disposed of until some time after the election, as Mr. Rollins left here to-night for New Hampshire. The Union Pacific Railway. The ninth section of the act of July 1, 1862, author- ized the Union Paciiic Railway, Eastern Division, to construct a raiiroad an@ telegraph Ine from the Missourt river to connect with the Union Pacific Ratlway at the one hundredth meri- dian, and that the route in Kansas west of Fort Riley be subject to the approval of the Presi- dent of the United States, to be determined by him on actual survey. By the first section of the sup- Plemental act of July 3, 1866, the company received the privilege of changing their route, but were re- stricted to the same amount of government bonds they would have™ been entitled to by the original route. This change of route rendered it necessary that the exact distance from Fort Riley to the one hundredth meridian should be ascertained in order to determine what amount of bonds the company would be entitled to; and Major Howell, of the United States Army, was June last «assigned to the duty of making the survey. Major Lowe!) has completed the survey, and finds the distance to be a fraction over 258 miles. The distance from the initial point on the Missouri river to Fort Riley ia 125 miles. The survey has been approved by the President, wito has ordered that the distance for which the company may become entitled to the subsidy of the government on the completion of its railroad and telegraph line i# a fraction over 393 mules.

Judge Olin con- curred in the conclusion, but difered somewhat in regard to practice. Tyler, at the breaking out of the rebellion, was major in the marine corps and went South and took an active part in the war. His house was sold under the confiscation jaw, the pur- chaser to hold the satme during Tyler's lifetime, Defrees bought it at a pablic sale, Tyler sued to re- cover it, but the decision just rendered confirms Detrees in possession. ‘Treaty with the Sace and Fox Indians. has prociaimed a treaty with the “ and Foxes of the Mississippi, by which they cede to the United States atl their lands, ia return for whickample compensation is made aud @ tract of land set aside in the Indian country south of Kan sas for their future home.
