Before entering upon a report of the results of the business for the year 1803, your directors Lave tbo melancholy duty of recording tho death Of Mr. Terey M. Dove, who occupied the posi tion of manager and actuary of the company from Its establishment in 1815. Mr. Dove per- Y formed the duties devolving upon him with a r .T : . i 1 1 .. 1 i. .,;. i . i. c ..i 1 uiBiiiiKuiBuuu uuuuy, uuu iuucu ui me mni teu success which the company has achieved may be attributed to the energy and enterprise ho dis played in Its service. Mr. John II. M Larcn, formerly sub-manager of the company, has becu appointed manager. Fihe Department The fire premium? for tho nast year amount to the sutnof 175,57:4 12s. 8d,(?3,377,W,:old), and the fire losses to cm,. Wl 17s. 7d. (,.I4'.ni,ftu;i, goiu). Tins ratio oi loss, it will l)c Dbscrved, is lower than it has been for several years, but Is still considerably in excess of thi experience of the Company in its arlv ListoiV. The new elements of risk which have ber J referred to in previous reports, and the dcerea'cd rates of premium now prevail ing, have both tended to diminish the profits of fire insurance business, and necessitated a more Biinute scrrtiny of the results of the various branches o' this department. It is gratifying to report thn. by the practical application of the results of'hesc and former investigations theCom- fany D' cscnpcu um mi; j ui huiuuhi ug to A,Ki,35a(41 1,740), on risks which had been .cclined. It may, therefore, be reasonably anticipated that a continued waicniui orsigm, of t.e business and a judicious economy in ex- n' liturc will secure, on an average of years, a Jai though moderate profit for the sliarcho - I df.s ; and it is satlslactory to add mat sucu a I p out has ucen reauzca on mo iransaciioiis ui ine oast twelve months.

In view of the improvements going ou at the southern extremity of lily IIn.ll l'nrk, it is not probable that St. Paul's Church will much longer be devoted to spiritual purposes Some secular building is necessary to give artis tic completeness to tho quartette which, when the Post Olllee is finished, will exist upon the four corners formed by the intersections of , Broadway, Vcscy street, Park Kow, and Ann street. The Astor House, the Herald buildin and the Post Ollico are a very respectable trio, but St. Paul's steps iu aud makes the quartette inharmonious. The sacred temple is decidedly de trop, and seems like a standing rebuke to Mammon. Commerce has for a long time had her eye upon that site, and pretty soon ber spades and pickaxes will be at work. Perhaps it is not to be supposed that Christianity would make much of a stand before Commerce, or that the temples dedicated to the exposition of reli gious tenets should materially bar the progress of Trade. Religion has to go on that mysterious tour designated by "farther-up-town" when business bids her "git up and git." AVheu the theatre pits itself against the pulpit there seems to be ho chaucc for the latter at all. More than one theatre iu New York is a "re constructed" church. Footlights flourish where incense once was swung, and tho saucer-skirts of the danseuse supplant the surplice of the chorister. Did you ever hear f Tobacco and Ale mixed TohciIkt as a cure lor fever and ague? The proportions are a ten-cent paper of chewing tobacco to a pint of ale. The mortal name of the inventress of this brilliant specific Is Mrs. Monaghau, and she concocts the beverago on First avenue near Sixty-first street. The last ease of fever and ague for which she concocted it was that of Mr. Cornelius ltalibor, who at her behest swallowed three tumblers of the ambrosial draught, and forthwith vomited them up again. Whether this phenomenon produced Incredulity, or whether the shakings of his body were communicated by sympathy to his soul, ids faith from that moment wasBhukenln Mrs. Monagban, and continued shaken during tho remainder of bis existence, which was prolonged two-and-a-half hours after taking the first dose. At tho Coroner's inquest, Mrs. Monagban testified that she had often ad ministered the doso in other cases, and with the - liappiest results. This assurance, however, did not save her, on the death of Mr. Kallbor, from being required to lurnlsb tlOOO bull. This being given, sLe was allowed to depart with the tacit understanding that Ueuccforlli bhe should refrulu from putting into practice her peculiar system of therapeutics. Thentrlm! Item. M. Flageolet, the member of the Clo doche troupe who recently died in Iicllevue Hospital, was the one who took the part of the old woman with the basket. I understand that his death was caused by the bursting of a blood vessel during one of those overstrains which contribute to the jrrotesqucness of the can-nan. "Loose Heel" Western (as the parodist of Kant Lynne, terms that lady) continues at Fink's Opera House, playing to largo audiences, which would be paying were they not "paper." During the last ten weeks this theatre has become the Bowery of the went side of the town. The roar ing Til ton revellcth there, revealing undreamt-of depths of basso profundities. The gentle J. A. Heme, of whom, nt the time of his marriugo with Helen Western (Lucllle's sister), it used to i)C eua that ho was "Jicrnc"nnd she was "his'n,' Is irresistibly villainous. The joyous George H. Clarke, who a comde of vears wro was uny..un.v ir. ti, pi,nininiitn riipsiint. , k k, down to , " , , ; , - Hie conccrt-salooiianes of that manager, and to piny a line of parts he was never engaged for, has seceded from Fisk s, dropped the J I which used to be the initial of his middle name, and put in nn appearance at Daly's, where ho is re markable for the faultlessncss of his toilettes and the devilish gcntlemanliness of his villains. You might as well expect a strict Jew to fall ill of "trichiniasis," as to squeeze a bit of news out of me in such newsless times as these. It is not to be done. The antique monster who had surfeited himself with sin, and offered a reward (Q wilouls)CV(.r 8i,oukl invent a new crime, was curious and prvlng after spicy horrors ""l m",t' t';nulls !lIlu 1 "lh i"" V than New lork city editors arc. Tins horrors won't come, however, and the local news is so fiilt tuat some of the dailies arc driven to printing Ni'ini-Ncntintioa Arllrlo on I lie Public Crme- with the choicest epitaphs for subheads. By-thc-by, I could compose better epitaph than most of them are myself. My pet bantam died the other day, and I immediately inscribed this ovcr tjic remains: I had a little chicken once, It was my only pride, I loved It, uh ! perhaps too well It got the pip and died ! Its work is done, Its eges are laid, A long one-dav-in-scven "J'will hatch In Its celestial coop, And go to roost in heaven!

Paini.ksh DkiF.stion. "No man," sayj Sir Astley Cooper, "ou-lit to know by liis sensations that he bug a stomuch." In other words, when tliirostion U perfect there is neither pain nor uneasiness in the region where it takes place. Nausea, want of appetite, llatulency, oppression after .ating, shooting pains in the epigastrium, a Hushing of the face at meal times, and a furred tongue in the morning, are among the direct symptoms of indigestion Constipation, biliousness, headache, nervous irritability' physical weakness, and low spirits are its almost invaria ble accompaniments. All these indications of Dyspepsia, whether immediate or secondary, are usually aggravated by hot weather. The close of summer is, therefore, the season when the victim of dyspepsia most urgently needs a tonic and regu lating medicine. Of courso, every Invalid has many ad visers. One friend rooommends one drug, another an other; but in a multitude of counsellors there is not al ways safety. The standard r.medy of the present age for indigestion, in all it stages, Is mohtettbk s otomach UiTTF.lis. Time, that proves all things, has established its reputation on an impregnable foundation-the sponfa. neous testimony Of millions of intelligent witnesses. No acrid oil or acid defiles its stimulating principle; its tonlo constituents ar. the finest that botanical researcn uaa yet discovered ; it combines the properties of a gentle ovaeuant. a blood depurent, and an anti-bilions meuiuine, wuu invigo. rating qualities of the highest order, and i. admitted both by the publio and the pro'ession to be the surest proteo tion against all disease, that are produced or propagated by 'pestiferous air or unwuolesome water, that has ever been used either in the United States or Tropical America.
