CONSECRATION OF RT. REV. BISHOP
STEVENS,
A Solemn and Imposing Scene at Saint
Andrew’s Church—An Overflowing
Congregation.
From Tbmsday’s Philadelphia Bulletin j
St. Andrew’s Church, in Eighth street above Spruce,
was the scene of u bdlhuiu and interesting ceremony Ibis
morning. (January lid.) on the occasion of the consecration
of Rev. William Bacon Stevens, D.D., as Assistant Bishop
of tbo Protestant Episcopal Diocese of Pennsylvania.—
Even aa early us daylight a number of persons had gath
ered near the doors of the Church In the hopo of being
able to gain admittance to Ihe building, and to enjoy a
favorable position for witnessing the solemn and impres
sive ceremony of consecrating a llishnp. The doors were
not thrown open until nine o’clock, but the crowd, which
bad increased until even the sidewalk in front of th->
church was thronged, stood its ground tirmly notwith
standing the fact that the atmosphere was wintry and
biting, i, When the doors were finally opened the rush was
tremendous, and every seat was speedily tilled. The space
in Cue church which wub allotcd to the general public was
curtailed by the setting apart u r a large portion of the
lower lloor for the accommodation of the clergymen in at
tendance. Long before ten o’clock, the hour fixed for the
commencement of the services, the aisles and vestibules
were crowded and hundreds of persons who were unable
to get inside the building were compelled to leave.
The Interior of the church bad been boautifnlty decora
ted for the Christmas holidays, and these decorations were
allowed to gruce the walls on tbo occasion of the consecra
tion.
Al ten o’clock the bishops and other attending clergy
men, who had gathorvd in the vestry-room In the rear of
the church, proc- eded in procession to the places set apart,
for them. Tho t lUd-iling clergymen were in their sacred
robes, and the organ performed a solemn strain as they
entered the church escorting the bishop-elect.
Among the'distinguished clergymen who took part it)
the ceremonies were bishop Whittlngham of Maryland.
Bishop Lee of Dekwnre, Bishop Lee of lowa, and Bishop
Odenheimer of New Jersey.
Tho Bishops who were present and the officiating cler
gymeu took their seats in the .chancel; tho venerable
Bishop Hopkins, of Vermont, the Braiding Bishop, occu
pied the Episcopal chair near the attar. The candidate for
consecration occupied a scat in tho middle aisle near the
chancel rail.
The services commenced with the reading of the Morn
ing prayer, aud tho performance of the offices pertaining
to the service by the following-named cltrgyraen: Revs
Messrs. Leeds, ifuddards, KiliSu-Uy. Win. S'evens Perry, of
Portland, Me . aud Richard Channiog Moore, of Williams
port. '
The morning service was followed by the sermon, winch
was preached by Bishop Thomas March Clark, of Rhode
Island. The lateness of the hour at which the discourse
was delivered precludes tho possibility of our milking a
report of it. It wbb listened to with profound attention.
Tho text of the reverend speaker was taken from the
Second Epistle to the Corinthians, IMth ver.-e. f.ih chapter:
‘•Now then wo are auib.imadors for Christ, as though
God did beseveh \ou by us. we pi ay you in Christ's stead
be ye reconciled to God.”
Bishop Clark made a graceful aliusbn to the fact that
he had preached the sermon upon ths occasion of the as
sumption, by the Nhhup elect, c-f tho Rectorship of ?t. An
drew’s Church, thirteen 'ears ago. and to the fulfilment,
by Dr. Stevens, of the high imped then entertained, ut his
purity, piety and ust fulness. He also spoke in terms of
affection of liis own f- rmer connection with the chnrcb.
The speaker made the usual allusion to the duties aud
responsibilities ot the Episcopal office. In <lie conrae of
hla sermon, he spoke of the rebellion, and urged in the
most ferveut and patriotic strain tho duty ol staudirj l.>y
the Union and the Government in their lime of peril.
After tho sermon the certificates of attending clergymen
were read, aud then followed the administering of the
Holy Communion.
A late hour had arrived before tho ceremony of consecra
tion was performed. 1
The ceremony commenced with the reading of the “Col
lect,” and of portions of the Scripture, according to the
form of the Book of Commnu Prayer. Dr. Stevens wes
then vested with the “rochet” by Rev. Drs. Vaughn uud
Dorr. He was presented to the Presiding Bishop by Bish
ops Horatio and Alonzo Potter, who said :
“Reverend Father in God, we present unto you this
godly and well-learned man to be ordaiued and consecrated
Bishop.”
The testimonials of Dr. Stevens were thou presented and
read by Rev. Messrs. Childers, Morton, How.; and Ducachet.
Dr. S. then made a promise of conformity and obedience to
the doctrines, discipline, Ac., of the Protestant Episcopal
Church, in the following words:
“In the name of Goi, Amen. T, Wil'iara Bacon Stevens,
chosen Bishop of the Protestant Episcopal Church in Penn
sylvania, do promise conformity and obedience to the doc
trine, discipline and worship of the Protestant Episcopal
Church in the United States of America, so help me God
through Jesus Christ.”
Then followed prayers, after which Bishop Hopkins, sit
ting In the Episcopal Chair, said:
Brother, forasmuch as the Holy Scripture and the an
cient caoous command that wo should n-d h•» b.-.-dy in lay
ing on hands, and admitting any peison to government in
the Church of Christ which he bath purchased with no
less price than the effusion of hi? own blood: before we
admit you to this administration, wo will examine you in
certain articles, to the end that the congregation present
may have a trial, and bear witness, how you are miuded
to behave yourself in the Church of God.
Are you persuaded that you are truly called to Ibis min
istration, according to tho will of our Lord Jesus Christ,
and tho order of this Chnrcb?
Answer —I am so persuaded.
The Presiding Bishop—Are you persuaded that the Holy
Seripturos contain all doctrine required as necessary for I
eternal salvation tbrongh faith in Jesus Christ? And are j
you determined, out of the same Holy Scriptures, to in- .
struct the people committed to your charge, aud to teach j
or maintain nothing, as necessary to eternal salvation,
but that which you shall be persuaded may be cjncluded
and proved by the same?
Answer —I am bo persuaded, and determined by God’s
grace.
The Presiding Bishop—Will yon then faithfully exercise
yourself in the Holy Scriptures, and call upon God by
prayer for the true understanding of the same, bo that you
may be able by them to teach and exhort with wholesome
doctrine, and to withstand and convioce the gainsayers?
Answer —I will so do, by the help of God-
The Presiding Bishop—Are you ready, with all faithful
diligence, to banish and drive away from the Church all
erroneous, and strange'doctrine contrary to God’s word:
and both privately and openly call upon and c-uccurage
others to do the same ? -
Answer —I om ready, the Lord being my helper.
The Presiding Bishop—Will you deny all ungodliness
and worldly lusts, and live Boterly, righteously and godly
in this present world; that you may show yourself in all
things an example of good works unto others, that the ad
versary may be ashamed, having nothing to say against
you?
Answer —I will do so, the Lord being my helper.
The Presiding Bishop—Will you maintain and set for
ward, sb .much as shall lie iu you, quletnesß, love aud
peace among all men; and diligently exercise such disci
pline, as by the authority of God’s word, aud by the order
of this Church, is committed to you?
Answer —I will so do, by the help of God.
The Presiding Bishop—Will you be faithful inordaining,
sending, or laying hands on others?
Answer—l will so be, by the help of God.
The Presiding Bishop—Will you show yourself gentle,
* and be merciful for Christ’s sake to poor and needy people,
and to all strangers destitute of help ?
Answer —I will so show myself, by God’s help.
Then the Presiding Bishop, standing up, said :
Almighty God. our heavenly Father, who hath given you
a good will to do all these things, grant aUo unto you
strength and power to perform the same: that be accomp
lishing in you the good work which he hath begun, you
may be found perfect and irreprebensible at tho latter day,
through Jesus Christ our Lord. Araen.
Bishop Stevens then put on the rest of the Episcopal
habit, and “Fe.ni, Creator, Spiritus” was sung over him. —
Then came prayers, Ac., and the Consecration ceremonies
were at an end.

THIRTY-SEVENTH CONGRESS-FIRST SESSION
Monday, December 30
la the Senate to-day, Mr. Sumner presented a
petition from citizens of Steuben County,
praying for the passage of a law abolishing slavery
in all the States ; also another from citizens of
Massachusetts and Pennsylvania praying for the
emancipation of the slaves under the war power.
Mr. Poster also presented a petition for the abolish
ment of slavery. A communication was received
from the Secretary of War in reply to the resolution
of the Senate, stating that “ it is incompatible with
the public interest to furnish the correspondence
which has passed between Generals Scott and Pat
terson.” Mr. Grimes, of lowa, presented a bill to
acquire the Distriot of Columbia, and Mr. Davis, of
Kentucky, introduced a bill confiscating the property
of certain persons declared alien enemies.
In the House Mr. Potter moved resolutions asking
the Secretaries of the Treasury and Interior to furnish
to the select committee instructed to inquire into
the alleged disloyalty of government employees,
the information asked for by the letter of the 3d
inst., addressed to them by the committee. The
I request of the letter referred to is for the names of
j clerks removed for alleged disloyalty. During the
1 discussion that followed the introduction of the reso-
I lution, Air. Potter stated that there are now in the
j employ of the government 500 disloyal clerks. The
: resolution being objected to it was not received for
consideration. Mr. Stevens reported, from the
Committee of Ways and Means, a bill repoaling
certain laws creating ports of entry. The consider
ation of this bill' was postponed till the second
Tuesday in February. Mr. Stevens said he believed
it was not a correct principle for a nation to blookade
! its own ports. Alluding to the adjustment of the
Trent affair, he characterized the conduot of France
os “impertinent,” and said that “when we shall
have settled our domestic troubles we must look into
the holy alliance of France and England and see
how far they shall be permitted to oontrol our
conduct.” A bill, introduced by Air. Spaulding
authorizing the issuing of Treasury demand notes,
was referred to the Committee on Ways and Means.
Both branches of Congress sojourned to Thursday.

Line between that port and China. Mr. Sumner

has taken -place since the Congress held at Paris in
1856, relating to neutral and belligerent rights on
the ocean. Adopted. Mr. Kennedy presented the
resolution of the Maryland Legislature, protesting

solved that the Secretary of War be requested to

tained or estimated, giving, also, os far as practica
ble 1 the several heads as to the departments or subject
matter under whioh the said debt may be ranged.—
Also, that the Secretary of the Treasury be direoted
to report, as soon as practicable, the amount, in
pounds, of the importations of tea, coffee and sugar
in the several ports of the United States for each
; month of the fiscal year ending June 30th, 1861;
I also the amount in pounds, of the importations of the
| same articles for eaeh month of the current fiscal
j year up to January Ist, 1862, with the amount of
! duty collected on each since the fifth day of August
| last. Mr. Stevens and Fenton severally objected to
the introduction of the resolution. Mr. Phelps asked,
but failed to obtain, leave to introduce a bill extend
ing the laws now inforoe regulating trade and inter
course with the Indian tribes,.-to the Indians in
California. The House then adjourned till Monday.
tone of the articleß in the London
Times and other English newspapers, is ex
tremely hostile to the United States, and has
produced great apprehension that England is
resolved upon a war with this country, not
withstanding the surrender of Mason and Sli
dell to the protection of the British flag. The
Times is particularly boastful and insulting,
and calls the blockading of Charleston harbor
by the stone fleet “an act of barbarity unpar
alleled in the history of National wars—a
crime against all human kind—execrable in
design/’ &c. But it must not be forgotten that
these articles were written in ignorance of the
action of our Government, and under the an
ticipation that Mason and Slidell would not
be surrendered, and that war with the United
States was inevitable—and that their design
was to work up English opinion to the fighting
point. Whether England is resolved upon war
at all hazards, and will discover Borne other
pretext for meddling in our domestic affairs
the moment the Mason and Slidell cause is re
moved, we will ascertain after the news of
their surrender reaches England and the ac
counts of its effect comes back to this country.
Certainly the surrender of the Rebel Ministers
was a concession by our Government for peace;
and if England presumes to take advantage of
our apparent weakness to force a war upon us,
the people will meet the danger with a spirit
proporiioned to the concessions made for the
sake of preventing a foreign war at a time of
deep domestic trial. —Patriot & Union.
j Condition of English Cotton Mills.—
! Important statistics referring to eight hundred
; and forty-two cotton mills in Lancashire are
| published. Of the total number, two hundred j
| and ninety five are working full time, eeventy- !
i five five days in each week, three hundred and I
j five four days, one hundred and eighteen three ;
days, and forty-nine have ceased running ]
altogether. Of 172,257 working people em
-1 ployed in these mills, 64,393 are working full
time, 15,572 five days in each week, 55,397
four days, 28,832 three days, and 8,083 are
totally unemployed.
As it is very probable that eaoh subsequent
month will add to the number of those on
| short time or totally unemployed, .a large
increase of pauperism must be expected du
ring the winter. The annual exportation of
Manchester manufactures amounts in value to
i $260,000,000; but owing to the American
war some of the markets are closed and others
have been so depressed as to prove indifferent
customers. Hence there has been a glut of
goods, which have come baok upon the manu
facturers.
The amount of capital embarked in cotton
industry in England has been estimated, in
the year 1860, at £100,000,000, (about $600,-
000,000) which serves to give some idea of the
Absolute immensity ,of the interest involved.
HOW-PKTEB. FUBJK DOE8;BV8I5BB8.
“Burleigh,” the Nevv York correspondent
of the Boston Journali writes the following
leaf in the history of Peter Funk and' his
doings:
Some time since a rural Colonel from the
West came to New York to make a speech.
He was met the Dexfc day by a gentleman who
called him by name—knew well—-was
charmed with the, fervor of his Western elo
quence—with the force ofhis oratory,‘.with his
unfaltering patriotism; to all which the West
ern orator bowed in the lowest humility, avow
ed his sense of unworthiness, and his inability
to enlighten a New York audience; but ex
pressed a warm appreciation of the manner
in which the people listened to his poor re
marks. A fellow.feelihg was at once created;
and confidence; that plant of slow growth,
seemed to come forth as by a miracle. The
pair reached a store in Broadway, the owner
ship of which the new acquaintance of the
Colonel avowed. It just popped into the nrind
of the Colonel that he had a lovely daughter
at home, fair as a prairie rosebud, which soon
was to bloom in a conservatory of a waiting
swain, who held in his impatience to make
the fair flower his own till the Colonel should
come home from New York. Now the
daughter needed a gold watch, and he pro
posed to buy one. The new friend of the
Colonel allowed that he kept watches in his
establishment, but had nonethat were worthy
of the attention of the distinguished gentle
man and his fair daughter. He had some, it
wae true, but as they could be sold for the
paltry sum of $125 to $3OO, it was not worth
while to look at them. And, moreover, the
city of New York was a bad place for stran
gers ; men got cheated every day, and he wonld
do well to look sharp at all men who wanted
to sell him anything, and be especially care
ful of the company he got into. For all this
he was profoundly grateful,-and persisted in
going into the store and taking a look at the
jewelry, aB he knew a thing or two, and the
man would rise up early in the morning who
got the better of him.
Now let me say to the reader that this friend
of the Colonel was one of the sharpest Peter
Funks in New York, and his store the head
quarters of moek auctions. So in the man
went. An elegant watch was shown the Col.,
one of great value, worth $l3O, and cheap at
that. So a bargain was struck, and had the
Colonel gone on his way all would have been
well. But at this moment two men came in
—one a customer and one a “ down town”
jeweller. The jeweller opened the business.
His friend, he said, was about to buy a watch
for $2OO, and like a wise man as he was, he
would not purchase until some one that knew
all about watches had passed judgment on it.
So the watch was handed out, examined and
found to be all right. A new thought came
over the Colonel. He would have his purohase
examined. Ho would —and when the back of
the seller was turned, he said in a whisper,
don’t take it. But the money had been paid.
The jeweller knew how to manage that. The
whole stock was examined, only one
that would suit. That hung by itself on a
black velvet case. That could not be had. It
had been sold to a man who was to “ call for
it at two, precisely.” It was a watch of rare
value, and could not be had at all, and if it
could it was invoiced at $2OO. But that par
ticular watch the Colonel resolved to have.
The parties all waited till the City Hall
alarm bell rung out the hour of two, when the
Colonel demanded the watch. The jeweller
seconded the call. The seller was in doubt;
his conscience was tender; he wanted to do
the fair thing; but concluded to hand the
watch over, and the additional $5O was paid.
The watch was hardly iQ the pocket of the
buyer, before pantiDg with heat and haste, the
man for whom the watch was kept, came run
ning in—he bad been detained by the omnibus
—and demanded his watch. Great was his
indignation when he found it was too late.
The watch was his ; he would have it; it was
two till it was three; would give five dollars,
ten, fifteen. But the Colonel would not
yield; he did not trade in watches; he had
bought one, it suited him, and $5O was no
object. A quarrel followed jjgliss was broken ;
noses bled ; the Toombs loomed up before the
Colonel, and to keep the watch and make all.
square, $5O more was paid and he departed.
Ol course the reader knows that the jewel
ler and his friend, and the panting man run
ning in too late to carry off his watch were
all bogus, and parts of the establishment to
carry on the Peter Funk business. Oq arriv
ing at hiß hotel the $2OO watch was found to
be brass. The Police were called in, but the
jeweller and the store was closed. He could
get no relief. He concluded to shake the
dust of Gotham off his feet and go home. In
a frame of mind not exactly Christian he took
his seat in the car—left in a moment to go
out; came back, found an occupant in his
seat, ordered the interloper out; as the cars
were crowded the new comer could not see it.
Viewing all men as conspirators, he took the
law in his own hands—gave the intruder a
beating, was arrested, locked up in the
Toombs, and left for home, after paying in all
$l,OOO, with the fixed resolution that when

Glue.--We advertise to-day a

This is reported to be the identical glue with which the
man glued his dog together after be (the dog—not the
man!) had split himself in two halves by running agaiust
a sharp pOt>t while in pursuit of a rabbit. It is related of
this uufortnnate dog that, he was stuck together with two
legs up and two dowo, and remained so for the rest of his
life; albeit he was a more durable dog after than before
this slight accident, because while be was running on two
legs the other two were resting, and he bad only to flop
over on the rested legs and go ahead, afresh. This only
shows that care should be taken in sticking things to
gether, when you have a good glue to work with. —From

/y {9“ How to Regain Lost Health..**
f The blood is a fluid, which diffusing itself through
out the entire animal organization, gives life and ac
tion to the thousands of minute fibres composing the
body. Tho arterial system penetrates to every organ,
and these iu turn, give to the matter thus received
their peculiar character. The vital principle is that mys
terious power within, which acting through tho blood,
counteracts disease, and repairs the ravages of time. So
long as its vigor and activity continue superior to the as
saults of time and the excesses in which we indulge, we
are secure in the enjoyment of health. From which are
too fruitful to be mentioned here, disease gains lodgment
in the system, and ail the varied symptoms attendant
upon Consumption, fasten their deadly fangs upon the
sufferer. It is cheering to know that a remedy has at last
been found to cure the worst forms of pulmonary com
plaints, if applied in season. Dr. O. Phelps Brown’s
Acacian Balsam is prepared with a direct eye to its effect
upon the blood and secretions. This incomparable medi
cine has already cured thousands of grateful beings from
death by Consumption, and its wonderous efficacy In this
terrible disorder as well as in all cases of serious inroads
upon health, attended with extreme debility, is acknowl
edged by all. When from any cause, the vital force be
comes enfeebled, the Aoacian Balsam puts forth its proper
ties, the organs are stimulated into activity, and healthy
blood is furnished in abundance. Its happy influence is
felt upon all the secretions, and every particle of disease
is made to vanish before the healthful, life giving prompt
ings, thus called forth. The Acasian Balsam is sold at $2
per large bottle and may be obtained of

.. .REPORT
OF THE DIBECTOKS OF THE
Farmers' Mutual Insurance Company,
For the year 1861.
Bead at a Meeting of the Members of that In
stitution, on the. 28th dag of December, A. It.,
1861, being their Annual Meeting for the Elec
tion of Officers :
FOE two years next preceding that
bow brought to. a close, tha “Directors of the Far
mers’ Mutual Insurance Company, In making op their
Annual Report, bav? had the pleasure of congratula
ting the members on their fortunate exemption from
serious anddlsastrous losses by fire; so. much bo, that
the Directors found It unnecessary to levy any tax dur
ring that time, except at the dose of the last 3 ear; but,
as the tax was not collected until the commencement of
the present year, it would seem to belong more appro
priately to the expenses of this year, thus Leaving the
two years already referred to without any tax what
ever. This favorable condition of circumstances could
not reasonably be expeeted to be of long continuance,
and it may be remembered that the Directors, in their
last report, adverted to this subject, end seemed to an
ticipate a season when liberal contributions' might be
required.
The old adage, that “misfortunes never come single,”
has been fully realised by the Farmers’ Mutual Insur
ance Company, daring the last six months. Indeed, it
would almost seem as If casualties by fire were govern
ed by some epidemical or contagious influence, which,
when once in operation, continues Its ravages until
it has spent Its force, or is count*rated by some other
influence. Without stopping to sustain such a theory
by philosophies! deductions, the Directors can only.in
dulge the hope, that we have, tor the present, reached
the extremity of this destructive cycle, and that, on
the principle that “ after a storm there comes a calm,”
we may anticipate a cessation of those calamities, and
rest in apparent security for an indefinite period of
time.
At the close of the : year 1859, the report of the then
Treasurer, John Rohrer, showed a balance in his lavor
of one thousand and thirty-fire dollars and seven cents.
($1035 07). This was money that had been advanced by
him, at different times, when the money in the Treas
ury was inadequate to pay losses and expenses that
had been incurred, and when the sum required seemed
too small to justify the Directors in levying a tax,—
There having been no tax collected during the last year,
this debt remains unpaid. In the tax that was laid at
the close of the last year, and which may be considered
as the first tax daring this year, the payment of this
debt was contemplated, and was so announced in the
report of the Directors, although the amount was not
stated In that report. A succession of small fires crea
ted an unexpected demand on the Treasury, and the
money intended to pay Hr. Bohrer was applied to the
payment of losses that occurred subsequent to the levy
ing of the tax. A precisely similar state of things has
prevented the payment of this debt ont of the second
tax as yet. As this debt constitutes a material part of
the present indebtedness of the Company, and has al
ready been twlee (if not oftener) used as a pretext for
levying a greater amoint of tax than existing losses
seemed to jastify, this explanation has bee redeemed
necessary, in order to give all concerned a full and fair
understanding of the present condition of the Company.
Although c&sualities by fire in property insured In
this Company have been more frequent during the pres
ent year than for a number of years past, the aggregate
loss has not been proportionably great. None of the
losses have been very heavy, and most of them may be
considered light, and singly, would scarcely have been
felt by the Company. On several the Compa
ny, as well as the individuals owning the property, nar
rowly escaped 6erious losses, which were prevented by
a timely discovery of the fire and the active and judi
cious exertions of those who were present.
It is a consoling reflection too, that most of the fires
were purely accidental, and only two or three were sus
pected to be tbe work of incendiaries. Two of the
fires having occurred iu the same neighborhood, a sus
picion was excited that the troubled condition of the
oouutry, and the different opinions entertained in re
gard to those troubles, might have some connection
with the cause of those disasters; or that, some unprin
cipled scoundrels might be lurking in that vicinity,
who for some purpose of eupldity or vengeance, or the
mere gratification of a malicious disposition, might be
guilty of further perpetrations. These suspicions for a
time created some alarm, and were the subject of con
siderable conversation in the immediate neighborhood
and the surrounding country; but, as a considerable
time has now elapsed, without a repetition of those
outrages, a returning sense of confidence and security
again pervades the public mind, which it Is hoped may
not soon be disturbed or molested.
The first fire during the period embraced in this re
port, occnrred in the stables of JohaGreider and Cath
arine Uershey, in the village of Houotvllle. This fire
really occurred in the night of the 29th of December,
A. D., 1860, which was so near the close of the year as
to throw the whole proceedings ot the Board in relation
thereto into the business of the current year. The
appraisers estimated Mr.Grelder’s damages at $4OO, and
Mrs. Hershey’s at $48.00. Of these sums three-fourths
of the amount was paid to each respectively. The ori
gin of the fire was supposed to be the work of an In
cendiary.
The next fire occurred In the cotton mill of Spencer,
Boardman & Spencer, on the 22d of February. The fire
originated accidentally amongst the machinery, loose
cotton and other highly Inflammable material, which
greatly endangered the whole building and contents,
and but for the timely exertions of the proprietors and
their employees, and the judicious application of the
ample and efficacious measures of precaution provided
by the proprietors, the flames could not have been ex-
tinguished, and the Company, as well as the proprietors,
would have sustained a very severe loss. The damage
was principally confined to the machinery, and the
amount paid by the Company was $247.92.
A cooper’s shop of Christian Fenßtermacher, in Manor
township, was the next building destroyed. This hap
pened on the 19th of April. The fire broke out in the
afternoon, and was supposed to be accidental. The
building was insured at $lOO. The appraisers estimated
the damage at that, and the Directors paid him $76.00.
On the 80th day of July, the dwelling house of Jacob
C. Clair, of East Hempfitlj township, waß consumed by
fire, accidentally. His loss was estimated by the ap
praisers at $1950. three-fourths of which being $1462 50,
was paid to him by the Directors.
On the 17th day of August a fire occurred iu a work
shop owned by Henry K. Stoner, in West Lampeter
township. The timely discovery of the fire and the
abundance of water otf hand, (being near the mill-race)
enabled those present to subdue the devouring element,
and keep it within the building where it originated;
otherwise a large barn filled with hay and grain with •
In a few feet of the shop, must have Inevitably been
consumed and a serious loss fallen on the Company, as
well as on tbe owner of the property Mr. Stoner’s loss
was estimated at $260, and the Directors paid him $l5O.
The next In the series of this year’s disasters, was the
dwelling house and store of Robert Soulsby, In Martic
township, which took place on the night of the 22d of
August. This was evidently the work of an incendiary,
as a fire was kindled In the barn, on the premises, at
the same time, but owing to its confined situation, had
made little pregress when discovered, and was easily
extinguished. Iu a few minutes more the flames would
have reached the hay loft, and all efforts to arrest its
progress would have been vain. The loss was estimated
by the appraisers at $l9OO, and the Directors paid Mr.
Soulsby $1425.
Another fire occurred on the night succeeding the
12th of September, on tbe premises of P. W. Uiefitand,
in Mlllerbville, by which his barn and contents was de
stroyed. The appraisers reported his loss three hun
dred and seventy-five dollars, for the barn, and one
hundred dollars for the contents. The Directors paid
him $356 16. This building was supposed to have been
designedly set on fire.
In less than a mouth after the burning of Mr. Ili's-
tand’e barn, viz: on the night of October 6th, the barn
of Samuel Cramer nf Mattie township, was burned. As no
clue to the origin of the lire could be discovered, the con
clusion was that some malicious person hadpurposelyrset
fire to it. Mr. Cramer’s loss was serious, as the amount
insured was greatly below the actual value; but as this
was bis own fault, he did not complain, and was satis
fled, when the Lirectors agreed to pay him $750, that
being three-fourths of the amount he had insured. Of
this sum $5O has been paid, and the balance is still due
him by the Company.
On the night of the 15th of November, a wagonma
ker's shop and blacksmith’s shop, owned by Peter Fet
ter, in Manheim township, was burned. The fire was
accidental, and the value of the buliding estimated at
$5OO, three-fourths of which- being $375, the Directors
assumed to pay. Mr. Fetter had no Insurance on the
contents of his shop, and, in consequence, sustains a
heavy loss.
Two days subsequent to the last mentioned fire,
to-wit: on the 17th of November, a fire occurred in
the dwelling house or Elias H. Rhoads in Reams
town. The fire originated in a part of the building oc
cupied as a cabinet-maker’s 6hop, but was discovered
and extinguished before it reached any other part of
the building. Here again ihe Company narrowly escaped
a serious loss, as the Inuse is a large’three-6tory brick
building, with a considerable amount of contents in
sured. Mr. Rhoads’ loss was estimated at $l4O, three
fourths of which, being $lO5, the Directors agreed to
pay.
In addition to those above mentioned, there were sev
eral small fires.one of which (in Mr. Good’s house) came
nigh being serious, but by a timely discovery, and stren
uous exertions, a conflagration was prevented.
Upon a review of the whole, although the losses dur
ing the year have been serious, and the taxes somewhat
onerous. A little reflection will convince the members
of the Farmers’ Mutual Insurance Company, that they
have more reason to be grateful for what they have es
caped, than cause to complain of what they have been
made to endure.
The whole number of policies issued during
the year was one hundred and ninety-eight
(198) covering property to the amount 0f... $395,723
The additions made to old policies amounted to. 74,187
Making a total addition of
The number of policies cancelled, was
216, the valuation of which amount
ed to
Tbe diminutions on old policies a-
mount to 22,708
Making an aggregate cancelled and withdrawn
Which exceeds the additions and exhibits an
actual decrease of. $ 19,602
Which being deducted from the amount exhib
ited by the last report 4,876.326
Leaves an aggregate of $4,666,724
as the amouut now insured by the Company.
This is the first statement of the affairs of the Com
pany, that exhibits an actual decrease of the amount
insured.
From the first organization of the Company, in 1844 ,
when the amount insured but little exceeded $300,000,
it has been steadily and rapidly increasing, until at the
close of last year It attained the magnitude of four mil
lions eight hundred and seventy-Ax thousand, threo
hundred and twenty-six dollars; and notwithstanding j
the amount of new insurances exceeds that of either of
the two preceding years, it has been more than over |
balanced by the great number of withdrawals, thus j
showing an actual diminution of the aggregate amouut i
insured, which diminution apparently occurred during ]
the present year. This, however, does not present a 1
correct view pf the subject. The members of this Com- \
pany, being residents of some twenty-five or more town
ships in this county, numbers of them have little inter
course with the Board of Directors, except indirectly ;
through persons employed to collect the taxes. As there
is no imperative obligation on those whose polloles he- i
come void by a sale or transfer of the property to report i
the sum to the Directors, many of these changes donot j
come to the knowledge of the Directors until returned ■
by the oollectors; and as there was no tax collected da
ring the years 1869 and ’6O, a number of those changes
that occurred during those years and should have been
then cancelled, remained unnoticed, and, to the Board
of Directors unknown, until brought to their knowledge
by thecollectorsdurlngthepresentyear; consequently, !
of the 216 policies cancelled during the present year,
a proportionate number properly belonged to the two
preceding years, and had they been then reported would
have to some extent diminished the increase exhibited
daring those years, and prevented the apparent dimin
ution which by the above statement appears to have
ocoarred during the present year.
The Directors are not aware of any cause for a de
crease of the amouut of Insurance, beyond that of pre
vious years; no dissatisfaction has been manifested In
any quarter, and the tax has not been so exorbitant as
to induce any person to withdraw or cancel his insur
ance; and the apparent dimiauatlon can only be at
tributed to the accumulation of the withdrawals during
two preceding years, being included With wbat proper
ly belongs to the current year.
To remunerate the losses above described, and pay the
current expenses of the Company, a tax of one-tenth of
one per cent, or one dollar on the thousand, was levied
by the Directors, in addition to the one levied at the
close nf the last year, but collected during the present
year.
A portion of this tax Is still uncollected, and as the
duplicates for delinquents are now in the hands of the
collectors, the Directors Itave no means of ascertaining
the precise amouut outstanding, but entertain the opin
ion that the tax, when all collected, will be sufficient -
to pay the balances now due to Messrs. Cramer, Fetter
ana Rhoads, and leave a few hundred dollars towards
the liquidation of the debt due to Mr. Bohrer. '

•J* C. Am i Co. Gents: I feel itmj f 'dttty~td~*S-
knowledge what your Sarsaparilla has dbnsfor w«.
Having inherited a Scrofulous infection, I hare suffered '
from it In various ways for year*. Sometime* it burst
ant iu Ulcers on my hands and arms; sometimes it
turned inward and distressed me.at the.stomach. Two
yean ago it broke out on my head and .covered my *calp.~, ~
nod ears with oue sore, which was painful and loathsome
beyond description. 1 tried many medicines anti several J ~
physicians, but without much relief from any thing. In
fact, the disorder grew worse. At length I was rejoiced '
to read in the Gospel Messenger that you had prepared
an alterative (Sarsaparilla), for I knew from your repots- ■
tion that any thing yon made must be good. I sent to 1
Cincinnati and got It, and used it till it cured me. I took
it> &S you advise, in small doses of a teaspoonful over a
month, and used almost three bottles. New and healthy
vn to form under the scab, which alter &
while fell off. My skin is now dear, and I know by my
leehngß that the disease has gone from my.Bystem. You
can believe that I feel what lam saying when I tall
you, that! hold you to be one of the apostles of theses,
and remain ever gratefully. .

Tetter and Salt Rheum, Scald Head.
Ringworm) Sore Eyes, Dropsy.
Dr. Robert M. Preble writes from Salem, N. Y., 12th
Sept., 1559, that he has cured au inveterate case of
Dropsy, which threatened to terminate fatally, by the
persevering use of our Sarsaparilla, aud also a dangerous
Malignant Erysipelas by large doses of the same; says
he cures the common Eruptions by it constantly.
Bronchocele, Goitre or Swelled Neele.
‘ Zebulon Sloan of Prospect, Texas, writes: “ Throe bot
tles of your Sarsaparilla cured me from a Goitre — a hid
eous swelling on the neck, which I had suffered from
over two years.”
lieucorrhoea or Whites, Ovarian Tumor,
Uterine Ulceration, Female Diseases.
Dr. J. B. S. Charming, of New York City, writes; “I
most cheerfully comply with the roqnest of your agent in
saying I have found your Sarsaparilla a most excellent
alterative in the numerous complaints for which we
employ such a remedy, but especially in Fbnale Diseases
of the Scrofulous diathesis. I have cured many inveter
ate cases of Leucorrhcea by it, and some where the com
plaint was caused by vleerution of the uterus. The ulcer
ation itself was soon cured. Nothing within my knowl
edge equals it for these female derangements.”
Edward S. Marrow, of Newbury, writes, u A dan
gerous oranan tumor on one of tho females in my family,
which had defied all the remedies we could employ, has
at length been completely cured by your Extract of Sar
saparilla. Our physiciau thought nothing but extirpa
tion could afford relief, but he advised the trial of your
Sarsaparilla as the last resort before cutting, and it
proved effectual. After taking vour remedy eight weeks
no symptom of the disease remains.”
Syphilis and Mei’curial Disease.
Dr. J. C. Ayer : Sir, I cheerfully comply with the re
quest of your agent, and report tS you some of the effects
I hare realized with your Sarsaparilla.
I have cured with it, in my practico, moat of the com
plaints for which it is recommended, and have found its
effects truly wonderful in the cure of Venereal and Jfer
curial Disease. One of my pationts had Syphilitic ulcere
in his throat, which were consuming his palate and the
top of his mouth. Your Sarsaparilla, steadily taken,
cured him in five weeks. Another was attacked by sec
ondary symptoms in his nose, and the ulceration had
eaten away a considerable part of it, 60 that I believe the
disorder would soon reach his braiu and kill him. But It'
yielded to my administration of your Sarsaparilla; the
ulcers healed, and he is well ugaiD, not of course without
some disfiguration to his face. A woman who had been
treated for tho same disorder by mercury was suffering
from this poison in her boues. They had become so sen
sitive to the weather that on a damp day she suffered ex
cruciating pain in her joints and bones. She, too, was
cured entirely by your Sarsaparilla in a few week!. I
know from its formula, which your agent gave me, that
this Preparation from your laboratory must be a great
remedy; consequently, these truly remarkable results
with it have not surprised me,
Fraternally yours,
G. V. LARIMER, M. D.
Rheumatism, Gout, Liver Complaint#
Independence, Preston Co., 6th July, 1860.
Dr. J. C. Ayer: Sir, I bavo been afflicted with a pain
ful chronic Rheumatism for a long time, which baffled the
fikill of physicians, and stuck to me iu spite of &U the
remedies I could find, until I tried your S&ruaparilla. One
bottle cured me in two weeks, and restored my general
health so much that I am far better than before I was
attacked. I think it a wonderful medicine. J. FREAM.
Jules Y. Getchell, of St. Louis, writes: “I have been
afflicted for years with an affection of the Liver, which
destroyed my health. I tried every thing, and every thing
failed to relieve me; and 1 have beeu a broken-down man
for some years from no other cause tlmu derangement of
the Liver. My beloved pastor, the Jlev. Mr. Espy, advised
tne to try your Sarsaparilla, because he said he knew yon,
and any thing you made was worth trying. Ry the bless
ing of God it has cured me, aud has ko purified ray blood
as to make u new nmn of me. I feel young again. The
best that can he suid of you is not half good enough.”

This is a remedy so universally known to surpasa any

in useless here to publish the cvideuco of its virtues. Its
unrivalled excellence for coughs and colds, and its truly

As all know the dreadful fatality of these disorders, ami
as thev know, too, the effects of this remedy, we need not
do more than to assure them that it has now all the vir
tues that it did have when making the cures which have
won bo strongly upon the confidence of mankind.
