We direct the attention of the people of this side of the county to the annual state ment of the Pennsvalley Fire Ins. Com p. Our citixens can not help but peruse the exhibit of the affairs of our heme company with pride, as being in the healthiest pos sible cendit on and as worthy their support in preference to all other companies for purposes of insurance. The company has now been in existence 15 years, and in all that time not a dollar has bean misapplied, iu expenditures shewing a more econom ical administration than those of any com pany in existence for the same length of time, er evea during any less term of years intermediate. We trust that those of our people who have been disposed to feel prejudiced against the company, will sea that there was no foundation for the least dissatisfaction, either now, or at any peri od since iU incorporation, and we defy a successful rebutaticn ef this assertion. Being a local company iu premium notes amount to such a sum that it is not possi ble for any fire to occur of a magnitude to bankrupt it, A prominent oitisen of Gregg twp,, wbo was Insured In two other "popu lar" companies, to the amount af $4,800, in 1872 paid taxes on th/same amounting t# $110.26. The same gentleman was in sured in our own homo company ta the amount of $21,960, and, in tha same year, 1872. paid only $60.86; and the year 1872 was one of the heaviest* of our company for losses. Let those who have been in sured in other companies examine their receipU, and they will find themselves paying the same excesses. Further com ment upon this important fact is unneces sary, and wo trust it will convince those who have deserted their local company for ouuide one*, of their folly, a folly which many are now free to acknowledge they have dearly pai4 for. Qui let our people read tha annual statement In another col umn of the BXPOBTK* and be true to themselves, their neighbors and their own locality, by supporting a company at home that in every particular is worthy their confidence. —The weather all last week was intense - ly cold ; it is more moderate thia week ; en Tuesday we had a thaw and a little mow at night.

And we underetand that Guv. Bigler, a few weeks previous, for himself and Messrs Reed A Weaver, sold a lot, situated in HuaU>n township, for SBO,OOO cash, after having lumbered off it for two or three years. Talk about great bargains in Michigan ami Wisconsin! Why, the hemlock tim ber and bark alone in this county, upon which there is no value placed now, will be worth more money ten years hence than was placed upon everything in the county ten years ago. The folly or carrying tapi lal out West, to advance other people's property, when millions can be just as profitably invested around our own homes and add to their value, had better he aban doned.—Republican.
