Satnrdaj Morning^ Dec. 5th 186&

The general result, then, is that twentyfive States have voted for GRANT by 622,989 majority, and seven States for SEYMOUR by 210,198 majority popular maority for GRANT, .counting in frauds ir. New York, New Jersey, Louisiana and Georgia, 312,956. But allowing ten thousand lor the naturalization frauds in New York, three thousand for new Jer* sev, forty thousand for Louisiana, and thirty thousand for Georgia, and allow, ing also about ten thouaand for illegal votes cast in Missouri, the honest popular majority for GRANT was not less than four hundred thousand.

THE Court of Appeals of New Yorkhave rendered an important decision in the cese of Mrs. MARCUS W. GIBSON, vs. the Mutual Lif* Insurance Company.— The widow breught suit to recover her husband's insurance, which had been re* fused by the company on the ground that ho had invalidated tho policy by committing suicide. We find in an exchange the following details:

Tho defence set up by the company was in these words: First, Toat the proof filrnished omitted to state truly the cause of the death of said Marcus.

Second. Thai thfi 3aid Marcus W. Gibson committed suicide by designedly shooting «nd wounding himself, with the design and tor the purpose of produoiug dealt), of which shooting and. wounding Said Marcus died.

The company also attempted to prove that Gibson was an atheist or infidel, and therefore thai the suicide was intentional, the deceased not having the fisar of God before him but the court ruled out this as irrelevant, and held that in an action to recover for an insurance upon tho life of the deceased it is incompetent to inquire into his religious faith with a view_ of influencing iho que tion whether, in such case death was occasioned by an intent of pelf-destruction or by accident.

Tiie Court oi Appeal* therefore a&raetl the judgment of the lower court by giving judgment for the respondent, thus virtually establishing the principle that a life insurance policy is not of necessity invalidated by the suicide of the insured person or in other wosfc, that though a man should b« suspected of having committed suicide, his widow and children are not therefore to be deprived of the amount of his life insurance, whether he «?as Chiistian or heathen.

IT was only in 1865 that some ray of civilization—some glimmer ot decency shone in upon the dull brains of the legislators of Delaware, and woman-whip-ping was abolished.—Exchange.

THE BRFVRAL of the Government to accept tLe latest extension of the Union Pacific Railroad or to pay its subsidy on the last hundred noilos, has caused considerable excitement among those who are building, or making a pretence of building, the road, it will have the effect, we hope, to call public attention to tho manner in which these great jobbe^ are going into the Treasury ttoree or four miles a day at sixteen thousand dollars a mile. Good railroad men who have been Over the track say that a good deal of it is the most scandalously slighted and ram •hackled piece of work ever done in this country, and that it will all have to be done over again before it will be fit for use or safe to travel on.

The Popular Vote-

Official majorities of the Presidential vote in twenty-live States have beon published, with very nearly accurate statements of the result in North Carolina, Tennessee, Kansas and West yirginia, from which a few counties in each were still lacking at last accounts. As to Louisians, the official rote as returned gives GRANT a majority, for the Board of Canvassers threw out a large part of the returns on the ground that the election was illegal, as it doubtless was. Including the votes actually cast in that State and in New York, legal or illegal, the majority for GRANT in the six New England Slates, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Illinois. Indiana, Wisconsin, Michigan, Iowa, Minnesota, Nebraska, South Carolina, Alabama, and California, seventeen States, is 428,245, and the majority for SETMOUR in New York, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, Georgia, Louisiana, Oregon and Kentucky is 201,198. The remaining States have given, West Virginia about 9,000, Nyrth Carolina 12,000. Tennesson 24,000, Missouri 22,000, Kansas 17,350, Nevada 1,000 and Arkansas about l0,000 for GRANT.

It contains, besides the reports of the UommiiB&iner and his beads of boreaua, about twenty-five papers on different subjects, prepared by writers living in various sections of the country. There are three on steam culture. Oae is the history of the invention for farm Use, with some consideration on the mechanical principles involved. Another gives the practical results of steam culture in Europe, as shown by hundreds of experiments, and, the third relates to introduction and working of steam ploughs in the United States. Another is upon Bamie or Chinese grass, giving the hiatoiy of experiments and tests in British colonists, resulting'from jealousy of this country, and also on aocoant of the efforts made by the Agricultural Department in the same direction. There are also articles upon the goat antelope of the Rocky Mountains, and upon the manufacture of goat fleece for commercial purposes.— George Husmann, of Missouri, has a paper on wine making, and Edward A. Samuel?, of Boston, on the value of birds on farms. Mrs. Ellen 8. Tupper, of Iowa, has an article on bee keeping in winter, and F. B. Elliott, of Cleveland, one on popular varieties of hardy fruits. One of the department officers has an article on 'industrial colleges, agricultural societies, magazines, ana papers, and there area hall a dozen essays on 8outh em agriculture, rice culture, Southern fruits, tobacco culture, orange and citron culture, and similar topics. There are other articles on irrigation by citizens of Arizona, liquid manuring, cross breeding and degeneration oi plants, model farm buildings, Pennsylvania butter, etc.

WHILE we do not withhold our sympathy from Mr. R. Barnwell Rhett, Jr., nee "Smith, in the suspension of the Charleston Mercury, we are satisfied that this melancholy event is not one of unmixed ovil to the rest of mankind. We are fortified in the foregoing opinion by the conviction that the present shattered coniition of the Southern constitution is owing in large part to too copious and frequent doses of the villainoas mercurv ropounded in Charleston, South Caroliand with which the fire-eaters of that etion have heretofore delighted to saliynle thomselves on the slightest provoca-

ilowto Raise Twenty Dollars f&r Re ligipus Purposes. A preacher in a frontier settlement had I «n collecting money for some church obj. There was still some twenty dol-i-.rs wanting and after rain efforts to .Mike up the deficiency he plainly inti mated, as he locked the church door one oay after service that be intended to have that said twenty dollars before any of them had left the house. At the same tiaie he set the example by tossing $5 on the table. Another put down a dollar, another a quarter of a dollar, a fourth half a dollar, and to on. The parson read out4 every one and then the state of tiiu l'unds. "That's seven and a half my friends. "Thats nine and a quarter." Ten" tid six bits are all that are in the hat, fiends and Christian brethren." Slowly it mounted up. "Fifteen." Sixteen and ree bits," and so on untill it stuck at $19 5o. "It only wants fifty cents, friends, to make up the amount. Will nobody miike it up?1' Everybody had subscribed, and not a cent more was forthcoming. Silence reigned, and how long it might have lasted it was dificult to say, had not a half dollar been toeed through the open window, and a rough explanatory voice shouted, "Here, parson, there's yer morey let out my gaL ,I'm about tired of waitin' on her!"
