BEGGARS, AM) ROM TO TREAT THEM. One of the most difficult things in the world is the right administration of mate ial help in eiiies like these, where beggary s reduced to a fine art; where it largely consists in impudi nee and roguery. Do tot 1 know that 1 have been analyzed, watched, and studied Have not 1 known, ittentimes, when applicants for assistance lave come to me, that they have inquired ivhat sort ot a person I am, and where my weak side is? The moment they began 0 present their case, 1 saw that they were ?oing to try to get on that side, and I straightened myself up combatively, and wiid, “Xo, you don't There are a great many cases in which 1 turn away from my door persons who ipply for help, that I am sorry about for Months afterwards; but I cannot help it. 1 have the reputation of being a recklessly jeuerotis man—which is not so; and I lave a great many friends who like to in crease that reputation by saying to every poor dog that comes to them for help, "Mr. Beecher is a very kind-hearted man ?o to him. and he will look into your ease.” suppose there are five hundred cases, in the course of a year, of persons who come to me, and say that they were sent by members of my society, who assured them that I was a kind man. I always say to inch persons, "Who sent you?” They cay. "Mr. So-and-so sent me." I say, "Did ke give you anything?” If they say [hat he did not, I sav, “Then I shall not gi\e you anything. Go right back to him, and tell him to do something for you, anil send me a letter, over his own signature, assuring me of the fact, and then I will do something for you.'; Of course 1 ilo not suppose that any of vou ever did such a thing! Of course, I know that any of you would yourselves give to persons in need tiiat applied to you for help, instead of sending them to me. But when there is such an organized sys tem of beggary, one is perplexed to know what to do. Mnt there is a hopelessness in this mat ter of administering help, arising from the eonscinusness that in so many eases one is deceived by applicants for aid. There is this feeling often: “1 have given away a hundred dollars this month, and I am pretty certain that ninety-five dollais of it have been squandered, and what a thank less business git ingis, where in nine times out of ten what you give is undeserved and thrown away!” Then right on top of that will come the case of a person apparently in distress, of which I will say, “1 am sure this is all right;” and I will give live or ten dollars, as the case may be and before the person gets out of the house something or other will turn up, something will appear on the surface, that will satisfy me that 1 have been taken in again. 1 always pity the next two or three folks that come after that! They get punished for the imposition that has been practised by others on me! And then 1 turn upon myself and say, “A pretty fellow, vou are! These last were worthy cases, and you re fused to help them because you were so stupid as to be taken in by those artful cases!" And there it is. A man that is lull of feeling cannot help being imposed upon. I suppose I do slop over sometimes. Well, 1 never saw a pan just full of milk that did not slop over. If you do not want any slopping-over, take a pint of milk and put it in a big bucket. There will be no slopping over then. And a man who has only a pint of feeling, in an enormous bucket, never slops over. But if a man is lull of feeling, up to the very brim, how is lie going to carry himself without spilling over? lie cannot help it. There will be dripping over the edges all the time. And as every tlower or blade of grass rejoices when the rain falls upon it, so every recip ient along the w ay in which a man with overflowing generous feeling walks is thankful for his bounty. Howto carry a nature full of feeling, and administer without making mistakes, i do not know, you do not, nobody does, nobody ever did, and nobody ever will; so we must take it and get along as best we can. Life is a kind of zig-zag any how and we are obliged to resort to ex pedients, and make experiments, and learn from our blunders, which are inevit able. We fipd out a great deal more from men's mistakes than from their successes. But after ail, 1 am not sorry that I have been imposed upon, and that 1 have trus ted men that were not w orthy to be trusted. I tun not sorry that l have been duped. It falls out from an abundance of generous feeling. It is the mistake of a disposition that 1 think is a great deal better to have, with all the impositions which it suffers, than that kind of cold caution which pre vents you venturing anything on the side of kindness, because vou/alwavs want to be safe. 1 was much impressed with what 1 once heard my father say. His chance sayings have been like rudders to me all my life long. A man whom he had befriended and done a great deal for, turned against hint, and acted very meanly. One day father came home very much excited about it, and 1 expected he’ was going to blow out—for he shook his head in a peculiar way that he had when his feelings were very much wrought up. He said, (raising his hand, and bringing it down slowly, but with great emphasis,) “Well, when I have acted honorably toward a man, and he goes away and acts meanly toward me, 1 am never sorry that 1 acted houorabfy toward him!” Now, 1 think that was a sign of nobility. He had a great many of those signs in him. Never be sorry, then, for any generons thing that you ever did, even if it was be trayed. Never be sorry that you were magnanimous, if the man was mean after ward. Never be sorry that you gave. It was right for you to give, e\ en if ou were imposed upon. You cannot aflbrd to keep i on the safe side by being mean. You hail better, many times in tour life, for the .-ake of ke ping yourself in the practice of benevolence, do things that are ques tionable, rather than judge so narrowly I that you w ill always be on the side of cold [calculation, (live your heart some head way, and in the long run it will be safer for you.—Selection fivm Lecture Ilootn Talks by Hairy Ward chcr.

As one of our “assembled wisdom’* was passing up the stairs into the liepresentatives’ Hall, accompanied by a canine follower, he was accosted by a friend with, “Hallo, Lew, I didn’t know before that there were two “barkers" in the House!” The answer eamo square and direct: “Yes sir, and the rights of buth shall be respected." All lovers of the game of billiards will have an opportunity to witness a friendly game between Henry Sliiel of Portland, (champion of Maine), and Charles 15.

The audience w ill undoubtedly lie large, and the game very interesting as both players are in fine practice. The Gardiner post of the Grand Army of the Republic gave a grand entertainment at Johnson Hall last evening, for the benefit of the charity fund of Heath Encampment. The drama of “The Jacobite,” and the farce “The Varmount Wool Dealer,” were performed, interspersed with vocal and instrumental music. The characters were exceedingly well cast, and the parts admirably performed. This evening there will be another entertain ment with nn entirechange of programme, the entire exercises closing with a social dance. Our Gardiner friends would be pleased to see present many of their Augusta neighbors. The programmes for the occasion are printed in the form of a newspaper, and have been gotten up very neatly by G. O. Bailey Co. Gov. Chamberlain lias invited Capt Cummer ell of Her Majesty's war-ship “Monarch,” to visit this city on Friday of this week, and the invitation has been accepted. It is expected that the officers of the United States vessels now in Portland harbor will accompany Cap tain Commerell. A private dinner will be given them at the Augusta House, and in the evening a complimentary soiree will be ten dered them at Granite Hall, to which the State officials and our citizens generally v^U be in vited. All the officers of the fleet are ex pected to be present with the exception of Ad miral Farragut who has left Portland. Wesee it stated that Capt. Commerell, during the Cri mean war. served witli the British fleet off Veni kale, where the Russians had an important depot of ammunition, arms and commissary stores. One dark, windy night he rowed ashore with no companion but his coxswain, crept up to the storehouses and set fire to them on the windward side. The whole depot was con sumed, but before the two Englishmen could get away the coxswain was badly wounded. Capt. Commerell took him on his back, reached the boat, and pulled off in safety to the ship. That is how he got his “Victoria Cross,” and he was one of the first upon whom that reward of bravery was ever con ferred. We referred yesterday to a young man named William Clark, who was picked up in the street on Monday evening and lodged in the county jail. Clark committed suicide at the jail sometime Tuesday night, by hanging. 11c first attracted the notice of City Marshal Farriugton on Monday evening, and appeared to be wandering about from place to place without any particular purpose ur design. When interrogated as to his name and place of residence, he gave the name stated above, and said that his folks lived in Bowerbank, Piscataquis county. His peculiar answers to questions Indicated that he was bordering on insanity. He said be didn't wnnt to see any of his friends. When asked where he wanted to go, lie said he wanted to get out of the world. !Ie complained of the headache, and appeared exceedingly doll and despondent. I lie Hty .Marshal toot him in Ins cure, pro vided for him a warm supper at a saloon, anil thinking that he would be made more com fortable at the jail than at the poliee station, lodged him at the former place until he could communicate with his friends nt Bowerhank. On Tuesday he was visited by Dr. Toward, who found him in the same despondent condi tion; indeed he seemed to be completely dis couraged, the last spark of ambition evident ly had become extinguished, and he was a poor waif simply drifting along in the world without any aim or object. The jailer visited him Tuesday evening about elevefi o’clock, when he appeared to have fallen asleep, and was very quiet. Yesterday morning when the turnkey visited him at seven o'clock, he was found suspended by the neck by the suspend ers which he had taken from his pantaloons, and which were fastened at the top of the cell door. Lift was entirely extinct. It was evi dent that had he relented from the purpose of taking his life he could easily have accom plished his purpose by raising himself up by his hands but evidently his intellect was be clouded or life had lost for him all its charms, and the poor fellow probably made no eflbrt to release himself from the position in which lie was found in the morning. Clark was about 23 years of age, was quite neat and cleanly in his person, and to all appearance had seen better days. A stencil plate was found upon his person, cut with his name, also a pawnbroker’s ticket showing that he had pawned a watch, and two ten cent scrips, llis body will be retained here until some in telligence can be received from his friends. Since writing the above we have read a communication in yesterday's Ilangor Whig, from Dexter, stating that Clark was an em ployee in the Dexter mills and suddenly dis appeared from that village last Friday noon, Jan. 28th. The correspondint continues: “Fears are entertained by his friends that he has made way with himself, as it is thought that he was mentally deranged at the time. He has a brother lying at the point of death at home, which has affected him much of late. Last Thursday he received a letter from his parents, and while at work Friday forenoon, it was noticed that he frequently took the let ter from his pocket and read it over. When the bell rung for 12 o’clock, he started for his hoarding place, but instead of going there, he took a direct line out of the village. A party of men have been hunting for him two days without success. He was between 5 and 8 feet high, about 2d years of age, light com plexion, smooth face, and when he left, was dressed in a light suit with a black, narrow rimmed hat. IK- was a young man of good habits.” HEARING ON THE INSURANCE DILL. Yesterday afternoon, lion. A. W. Paine, of Ilangor, Hank and Insurance Examiner of the State, appeared before the Committee on Mercantile Affairs and Insurance, and argued for the passage of the bill which is now before the Legislature, and which has been general ly noticed by the press. Mr. Paine said the bill was substantially the one presented last winter, and proceeded to explain its principal features. It proposes to create a department of insurance, such as exists in other States. This department, having an oversight of the entire field of operations, will render more safe the business of insurance by keeping out of the State bogus companies and irresponsi ble or unauthorized agents. Complaints come from all parts of the State of imposition. If this law js passed, any man may know what companies are safe. Only authorized agents of responsible companies will be granted cer tificates, which an applicant for insurance can demand of the agent, and thus may be sure that he is Mile in his policy of insurance. The Examiner w ill receive no pay except fees to be paid by the companies. Provision is al so made for licensing insurance brokers who may place risks with any company either in or out of the State, who are authorized to do business here. Provision is made for annual returns of all companies doing business in the State, showing all the facts pertaining to their responsibility. which statements are to be in corporated in his annual report to the Legis lature. so that the people may be informed at any time, of the standing and responsibility of any company authorized to take risks in the State. Further provision is made for the ac countability of the companies to our State laws, and for a remedy in case a resort is necessary to legal means to collect policies. Provision is made exempting life policies from the claims of creditors during the life of the assured. Allusion was made to the favor able notices taken by people out of the State of the efforts being made to establish the de partment in the State. Mr. Paine then proceeded to the discussion of the 12th section, providing for the taxation of two per cent, on all premiums collected by foreign insurance companies doing business in this State. He based his advocacy of this on the great principle that all who share in the benefits of the government should share also in its burdens, except in cases of meri torious exemption. The business was a money-making one and had no features of an elecmos.i nary charac ter. The business of insurance was then al luded to and general statistics of the aggre gate of the several companies given, showing in cases of fire and marine companies for the year 1868 an aggregate of $-19,072,341 premi ums paid; while the losses were $23,714,803, or ft) percent. In life companies, aggregate of cash income for same year. $39,628,316; losses paid. $10,932,033, or 18 per cent., be sides expenses. For the same year a list of dividends was given of the several companies, varying from 10 to 40 per cent., showing a most successful course of business. In Maine the amount of premiums for fire and marine received during the year was $649,002, losses $339,906: in life. $969,230 premiums, and $133,937 losses, making an aggregate of pre miums paid in Maine that year of $1,618,233, losses $473,843, showing that Maine is of all States the very safest and best field for insur ance. The allegation that the large compa nies would w ithdraw from the State in case of taxation, w as scouted at bv Mr. Paine as too absurd to need refutation. They could not be thus driven from so good a field. The fact w as farther shown that they do pay a tax in almost all the other leading States, in several of which the companies already pay a tax to j their own Statu on premiums collected in I Maine, which by their laws will be suspended j when the laws of Maine require the tax to be j l aid here. lie claimed that no exemption from the common burden of taxation should be granted to these companies from any par ticular hazard attending the business, as in this respect it is scarcely more hazardous than other business engaged in bv the commu nity. Their ability to pay the tax asked for in the bill is shown by the vast amount of accu mulations which some of these companies had rolled up, amounting in the city of Hartford alone to almost 8100,000,000. In closing, Mr. Paine alluded to the large number of remonstrances from all parts of the State which had been placed in the hands of the committee, signed by men of the highest respectability and information. To illustrate the manner in which these names were pro cured, he read a circular which had been sent out by the committee of underwriters in Port land, in pursuance of which the remonstrances had been gotten up, and also spoke of the rep resentations which luid been made by inter ested parties to procure signatures, all of which lie characterized as erroneous and in many eases grossly exaggerated, lie ven- tured the opinion that if these signers had 1 known the actual truth in reference to the 1 matter, not one disinterested person would thus remonstrate against a tax which could so justly and honestly place in the treasury of the State from forty to fifty tliousaud dollars annually. Tlte parties on the other side of the ques tion will probably have a hearing before the committee next week, in which case wo shall give an abstract of the proceedings.

[By the Western Union Line—Offices Granite Bank Building and the State House.] FORTY-FIRST CONGRESS. Washington. Feb. 2. Senate. Mr. Howe, on leave, addressed the Senate in support of the bill recently intro duced by him to more effectually preserve the neutral relations of the United States. The bill was discussed at some length with out affording any understanding upon the subject, and the* Senate at 5.15 P. M. ad journed. House. Mr. Davis, from the Judiciary Committee, reported back the bill to establish a uniform system of naturalization. Re-com mitted. Mr. Clark of Kansas, presented a memorial of the Kansas Legislature, in favor of the ad justment of apportionment of representation in the several States also a concurrent reso lution of the Kansas Legislature in favor of removal of the National Capitol to Fort Leavenworth Military Reservation, ami in structing the Senators and Representatives to vote against the additional appropriation for public buildings in Washington. Petitions were presented for the abolition of the franking privilege; against an increase of duty on steel, and from ship-builders in Xoank and Mystic, Conn., for legislation in aid of the commercial and ship-building inter ests. Mr. Banks of Mass., asked the Chairman of the Committee on Appropriations, to state whether that Committee had considered any measures for the relief of the large nnmbor of mechanics discharged from the Navy Yards in various parts of the country. Mr. Dawes of Mass., replied that a bill for that purpose was before the committee, and would probably be reported to-morrow morn ing. •After a conference with the Navy Depart ment. the House went into a Committee of the Whole, imil took up the Senate bill appro priating 830,000 for the poor of the District of Columbia, and allowing 810,000 worth of condemned army clothing to be distributed: and assigning the store-houses in Judiciary Square to the Womens' Christian Association, to give employment to indigent women. The bill gave rise to considerable discus sion, Messrs. Cook of Illinois, Maynard of Tennessee, and Ingersoll of Illinois, explain ing and advocating it. Messrs. Swan of Indiana, and Lawrence of Ohio, took the ground that the people of the District should maintain their own poor: and Mr. Logan of Illinois, arguing that the pioper mode of relief was not to appropriate money to he used perhaps for election pur poses, but to authorize the Seeietarv of War to issue daily rations to the poor. Mr. Logan offered an amendment to carry out his views, and in the course of his re- marks said that if the aristocratic people of i Washington would devote to charitable pur- poses the money spent in fashionable reeep- j tions and personal ornaments, they would not' need to ask Congress to maintain their poor. Messrs. Benjamin of Mo., and Lawrence of Ohio, offered amendments to authorize the municipal authorities of AVashington and Georgetown to levy a tax for the support of their poor; and Mr. Slocum of New York offered an amendment to give 830.000 to those poor persons recently deprived of employment in tiie Brooklyn Navy A'ard. The debate was continued at considerable length, it being charged that some of the par ties to be beneStted under this bill were able bodied persons, and always on hand in the galleries of the Capitol and in political torch light processions, Mr. 11 la of N-. H„ dosed the discussion by appeals in behalf of the poor of the District of Columbia, and then the committee proceed ed to vote on the amendments. Mr. Slocum's amendment was rejected— 42 to 84. Mr. Lawrences's amendment was rejected —04 to TG. Mr. Logan's amendment for the issuing of I rations by the War Department, leaving the 1 other portions of the bill for clothing, &t\, as iu the original, was agreed to—77 to 58. The committee then rose, and the House. without disposing finally of the bill, at 4.20 adjourned. FROM WASHINGTON. AA'asuisgtox, Feb. 2.
