Death of Dr. 'Whewell. of Cambridge VW
versity, England.
The last adviees from England convey
the intelligence of the death, on the 6th in
stant, of the distinguished Professor •and
scholar, Dr. Whewell, Master of Trinity
College. Dr. Whewell was born in Lan
caster, of humble parentage, and, it is said,
his father intended to devote him to his own
handicraft, but the superiority of his intel
/ectruil powers were so apparent when a
pupil in the Free Grammar . School of his
native town that he was allowed to continue
his studies and in due • course he entered
Trinity College. In 1828 he was elected
Professor of Mineralogy, - which
position he resigned ten years after
ward, when he was elected to the chair of
Moral Philosophy. In 1841 he was, nomi
nated to the Mastership. Dr. Whewell was
distinguished for his wide and varied at
tainments, and his published works . con
tain valuable treatries on Moral Philosophy,
Political Economy and Mathematics, as
'well as the Natural Sciences, though he will
be best known in after years as the author of
the History of the Inductive Sciences, pub
lished in 1841, and The Philosophy of the In
ductive Sciences; published a few years after.
He was prouder of. Trinity College than of
any of his works, and would have sacrificed
everything to magnify it. And it must be
added that he endowed it with almost royal
munificence. Some seven or eightyears since
he built, at his own expense, a hostel for the
reception of some of the overflowing
students of Trinity, who had been com
pelled to live in lodgings for want of rooms
in college, and at the time of his death he
had commenced still larger works by way
of addition to the former buildings. Dr.
Whewell was twice married and twice a
widower. His first wife was Miss Marshall,
a sister of Lady Monteagle. She died in
1854, and he married, secondly, in 1858, the
widow of Sir Gilbert Aftleck, a sister of the
late Mr. Leslie Ellis, himself a fellow of
Trinity.
The Beiehhelm-Mackenzie Ilfateh.
[From To-day:s TribaneJ
The progress of this match, which is
being observed with , the greatest possible
interest by chess-players, has, thus far,been
of a rather unanticipated- nature. Mr.
Relchhelm, although he has in parts of the
games contested exhibited great skill, has
as yet failed to maintain his high reputation
by any sustained effort. In the last three
games his play has been marked by lamen
table and disastrous oversight. On Satur
day afternoon the fourth game was com
menced, and through one of these slips was
finished in favor of Mr. Mackenzie in
hours. The game for the evening was post
poned, at the request of Mr. M.ackenzie,
until this afternoon, when it is expected
the Philadelphia player will display his un
doubted ability, and that there will be a
tough fight.
[The result of the game of Saturday after
noon is the more remarkable, as Mr. Reich
' helm's position, after an hour's play, was
apparently:a very fine one. He was labor
ing, on Saturday morning, under a tempo
rary indisposition,but we did not suppose it
would be sufficient to affect his play as it
seems to have done. It must have been
some most extramdinaryoversight that lost
the game.—En. BULLETIN.]

Pending the report, the Bev. Dr. Holdich addressed
the Conference in reference to the grand work of the
Society which he represents. During the rebellion the
Bible Society sent hundreds of thousands of copies of
the Holy Scriptures over the line by permission of the
-Government, and now the agents of that Society are
received kindly in every Southern State.
Various translations of the Bible in other languages
were referred to by Dr. H. After the close of his re
marks, the report of the committee was adopted.

J. J. Pearce was admitted to the Conference
from Wyoming Conference.
He has held the position of a located minister. In
the representation of his character previous to the
Note being. taken the Bishop, pleasantly' remarked
that in his early life he had been guilty of suffering
bin:self to be elected to TI. S. Congress.. The Confer

be would not be guilty Of the like again. [Laughter.]
He was admitted.

usual course this morning and read his sermon. •
The text is found in Deuteronomy 6th chapter, nth
and part of 7th verses.
We have not room to give even a e 'nopsts of this ex
cellent sermon. A beautiful and striking analogy. was
run between Mores and John Wesley, and the fruits
of Methodism were traced out by the hand of &mas
ter. The whole sermon wan replete with perfectly
rounded sentences, and the most ,startling 'epees.
Ata composition it was worthy of the able divine
and of the remarkable occasion which called it forth.
The strange scene was presented of a vast and intelli•
gent congregation of clergy , and laity being moved to
tears an° shoats 'by a sermon which wan being read.
Be great was the tide of feeling during its delivery that
at times the minister was compelled to pause and
allow it to subside before he could go on.

purchase of additional paid-up Insurance, or towards the payment of premiums daring the current year. at
the option of the Assured.
In view of the probabilities of an epidemic in the ce4ntry daring the coming season, it was deemed prudent
to retain the balance of the surplus, amounting to over gi,hXl,l3oo; as a special contingent fund. Bhonld this ex
traordinary reserve be found unnecessary, the sam so retained will be divided among those Pol Icy-Holders to
whom it belongs, at a future division.
Dividends are made /LH/WALLY, and the Assured can always use such Dividends to reduce their next an

The Company recognizes the principle that AMPLE SECURITY In a paramount consideration In Life Insu

In addition - to the proper reserve for re-insurance of outstanding risks, there still remains an undivided sar
