One of'the greatest of modern institutions is that of insurance. Ho who owns a* house Igpois by that 'owning the duty of.insur , iogit.

On what is prosperity based, if not on stability and rcliabillrty of in ' come? What makes panics ? Irregu . larity and unsteadiness of employment —factories shut up at one time by influx of foreign manufactures, and industry fighting its way along, at one time rising, aniat another felling. What contributes . .more.to -make a man shiftless, immoral and poor, than an irregular business ? Even the possession of property is subject to ups and .downs. Insurance corrects this. There is scarcely a phase of pre carious Income or property whioh Insu ranoo will not correct. By means of it thousands sleep securely who would other wise be continually worried. It enables Re former to .think, with less apprehension of the lose of cattle, it keeps ships from ; becoming total losses, it keeps the widows and orphans from poverty and utter wretch . pdnees. Like everything which tends to ' Confer stability on goolety, it suds morals; so4> by the way, wei may remark that this question of morality depends infinitely \ more on the steady, stable prosperity of a community than 'anything else. The pa rent whose future is secure, can from that minute begin to calculate on a career for bis children.

The press then loudly de manded the severe punishment of those who had trifled so with, the lives of the hundreds committed to their charge each day; and a distinguished and wealthy gen tleman of New York city, who was aboard the train at the time of the accident, as sumed tbe part of prosecutor. We have now to report that Mr. William White, $h 3 President or lessee and manager of the road, has been arraigned before the Grand Jury on a charge of criminal neg ligence as regards the case in question.— The evidence adduced is understood to have been clear and indisputable, showing the jitter rottenness and unsafety of the' bridge, which bad been fully brought to the knowledge of the accused. The jury, nevertheless, refused to find a bill of in dictment for manslaughter, the vote being ten to eight—lacking two of the requisite number of jurors to indict. It is currently, rumored that this result was effected by the strenuous efforts on the part of the railroad and its agents, in ■the shape of promises ' and threats Whether it be so or not, the end is evi dently not yet. The gentleman referred to above —Mr. Fuller, if we rightly re member his name—has expressed a deter mination to push the case to the fullest extent, to seek from any and. every court which can take cognizance of the affair, that reparation which is so justly deserved, and, not lease, to arraign the managers of the road before the tribunal of public opinion. It will probably be brought be fore another Grand Jury; and it is to be hoped tliajt the result will be. more in ac cordance with the rights due to our trav eling community. Are You Assessed! We think it the duty of every man to see that his name is on the assessment list ten days prior to tlfe second Tuesday of October, and likewise his bounden duty, as a citizen of a free and independent country like ours, where officers are se lected fay the people, to go to the polls and cast his vote for the man whom ho thinks; best qualified to discharge the du ties appertaining to the office for which be is a candidate. The omission of duty is, in many instances, as reprehensible as the commission of crime. We hold that no man has a right to stray away from the polls, but that he is sailed Upon by all he holds dear and sacred to go up and pos sess himself of a privilege bought for him with the blood of as true men as ever took up arms in defence of their country. It is by and through the ballot box and the elective franchise that our liberties are to be perpetuated unto us, therefore wo dare not be derelict in maintaining them pure. Selfish men who have some object to gain in certain events, stray away from the polls, and it therefore becomes the more necessary that honest should attend to counteract dishonest schemes.— Aguiu we-say, see that you arc assessed on er before Saturday week, October Ist, which is the last day it can be attended to.

The Aurora BorealUs of August 28-29 was ■Mn Inßubspe as hs in this eoutdry. .The London.Daity, iVnc,* ofthe 29th says: ‘ *• Early this morning, between twelve and one, a moetbriUiqnt -display of the! abote phenome non waa'observ6d,extendifg ftom,.tl»,weBtern hemisphere to. the northwest, and reaching to the zenith. The appearance in the west was that of* large fibre, but in the north ahd north east it was of a violet color, and ffaabes of light of the same color darted along the heavens with great briUlatocy.: This beautiful display lasted for about an hour, add then gradually died away, leaving a serene and unclouded autumnal sky.” In Cuba, according to the N. 0. Picayune, the display was also fine. That journal says: “ All our exchanges, from the northern const of the Island of Cuba (from the southern side 1 we have none so late), come to us with glowing descriptions of the recent Aurora Boreallis, which appears to have been as bright in the tropics a*, in the northern zones, and far more interesting. At Havana it made its appearance a few minutes after 9 o’clock, and iu the most approved style, not as here, gradually crimson ing over the sky, but, quick as thought, it shot up, and in a moment spread over the whole nor thern zone, from the horizon to the zenith. At first it was very brilliant but at half-past nine it begun to lose somewhat of its coloring, as it did of its length, and at ten it disappeared altogeth er. The sky was os clear ns before. “ At one iu tbe morning it made its appear ance again in the same sadden and luminous manner, and at the same great height, but it disappeared as suddenly and mysteriously a few moments after, only, however, to appear again. And now began tbe most interesting period of tbe phenomena. The sky was no more, or ut least for a moment, completely lit up from the horizon to the pole, but the light cameand went, now here, now there, now iu this direction, now in that, and each time varying in outline and brilliancy. During tbe three hours which fol lowed it seems to have had almost every longi tude possible iu its field, and to have described every possible figure. Finally about half-past four iu tbe morning, only yielding to the true | Aurora, it disappeared altogether, j “ But twice before have tbe Northern lights I been seen iu Havana within the remembrance of I tbe oldest inhabitants—the first, November 14, 1789, the second, November 17, 1848—both in the same month, a curious fact which has been duly noted by the wandering islanders. It is likewise remarked as curious facts, that tbe au rora of 1789 was followed two years after by u j terrible hurricane, while that of 1848 was, by I precisely the same number of years, preceded by j one. It has also been thought worthy of notice I by one of our cotemporaries tQat bail, in con j siderable quantities, fell in various parts of tbe island in the early part of the month of August.” The Aurora Borealis and the Tel egraph. During the anroral display of Thursday night, Ist inst., in Boston some curious phenomena were wituessed-in connection with the telegraph wirea The following conversation (says the Boston Traveller) between the Boston and Port land operators on the American Telegraph line will give an idea of the effect of the Aurora Bo rcallis on the working of telegraph wires. Boston operator (to Portland operntoi}.— “Please cut off your battery entirely from the line for fifteen minutes.” Vortland operator. —“ Will do so. It is" now disconnected.” Boston. —“ Mine is disconnected, and we arc working with the auroral curreut. How do you receive my writing ?” Vortland. —•* Better than with our batteries on. Current comes and gees gradually.” Boston. —“ My curreut is very strong at times, and we can work better without batteries, as the Aurora seems to neutralize and augment our batteries alternately, making curreut too strong ut times for our relay magnets. Suppose we work without batteries while we are affec ted by this trouble.” Vortland. —“Very well. Shall 1 go ahead with business?” Boston. “Yes. Go ahead.” The wire was then worked for about two hours, without the usual batteries, pn the auro ral current, working better than with the bat teries connected. The current varied, increas ing and decreasing alternately, but by gradua ting the adjustment to thi current, a sufficiently steady effect was obtained\to work the line very well. This is the first instance on record of more than a word or two haring been transmitted with the auroral current The usual effects of the electric storm were also manifested, such as reversing the poles of the batteries, Ac. We are informed also, that on the short line between the Cambridge Observatory and. the store of Messrs. William Bond & Son, in Con gress street, which rnus nearly East and West, the waves of electricity displayed considerable regularity, being'from a half to a minute in dura tion. An amusing story, says a Toledo, Ohio, correspondent of the Knickerbocker, is told of the acute sense of smell of ai tobacconist of our city, lie, together with his. clerk, was exami ning some tobacco submitted for his inspection. After carefully inhaling the flavor by three or .four protracted sniffs, he exclaimed to his clerk ; “John can’t yon smell old leather in the tobac co ?” John presented it to: his olfactories and “thought ho could.” The “chief’ then smelled again : mm declared that he could also detect a very slight flayer of maple sugar. This last aroma John pronounced beyond his powers.— Samples of leaf tobacco, you know, are taken from each end of the hogshead, apd also from the centre. The samples examined were from the ends. On taking a sample from the middle, there whs found an old boot faeel, full of maple pegs' - Judgment on “lobakker” from this quarter is now regarded as final.

Surely if a dog of any description would conduce to Mr. Berkley’s sport, or aid him in the capture of game, an or dinary cur would he best.

' j A story has been circulated in the pa pers respecting a child in New Bedford» who was left sleeping in a.cradle, and : was found by its mother nearly deprived of }i(e by a cat, which had stolen into the cradle,- and was sucking the infant's breath. The Buffalo Commercial Ad- a semi-medical organ, advances the opinion that the story is all moonshine, so far as the child's breath is concerned, as, at such a game, the cat would have Itho worst of the bar gain, babies having a : muqhi stronger power of suction than cats. The probability is that the cat selected the cradle as. a warm bed, and lying on the child’s breast, produced violent night mare, which might have | resulted, as it some times does, iu death.

Dr. Smucker has evidently prepared this work with much care, and it exhibits great ability and learning. The. articles on the different religions are very impartially writ ten, and show the careful study of an unprejudiced and sound mind; and the importance and value cannot be too highly estimated of such superior and unbiassed effort in a work of this kind, as too often, those pretending to give coi rect information upon sneh subjects are prejudiced in favor of some particular sects or denominations. Mr. Bul ison has brought out the work-in a very handsome form, and the public is indebted to hfm for a very valuable, In structive and useful book.
