The loss is estimated at $500.- Important Advantages.— The liberality and justice of the North American Lire Insurance Company are really what-they are advertised to be. The prime object of this institution is to afford the .assured as much protection as possible in return for Jthe cash he pays. One ef its peculiar features has I just saved to the needy family of a citizen of Philadel "• pbia two thousand dollars, which no other company would have paid. The case is this: A premium fell due the 18th day of September; on the 28th, ten days later, the insured died, his premium being still unpaid. The claim has been prepared, and accepted by the company. The insurance is just as good as if the payment bad been made on the 18th, when due, asall the policy, nolders of the "North America" have sthirly days' grace in the payment of their premiums, The Registered Policies of this Company are very popular; if iosnrers do not now have absolute secur .rity, it is their own fault; the State of New York is •the permanent guardian of this business. » This is the only Company In the world offering seen xity guaranteed by the direct supervision and control >of its funds by the General or Slate government, These advantages are appreciated in Philadelphia, as over -twelve hundred policy holdersc&n^testify.—P/iiZ«d€?pMa Abe Railroads Highways ?—The Ra leigh (N, C.) Progress says: “Judge Merrlman, Satur day night, passed the sentence of death on a man for highway robbery, to be hung on Priday, the 9th prox, The criminal, however, has taken an appeal to the Supreme Court, which meets in November, at which time a most important subject—as to whether rail* xoads can be considered highways or not—will be dis cussed and decided by some of the most eminent lawyers of the State. This is an important legal ques tion, and so is the question of where the best coal can he got. We decide in favor of the yard of W. W. Alter, 957 North Ninth Btreet.

Hepworth Dixon, Esq., of London, at the Testimonial Dinner Given at the Continental Kota, October 23.—Mr. Dixon, on Tislrg, seemed slightly embarrassed. He replied to -Mayor McMlchaslln the following remarkable words: 4 Tn the judgment of many of os, the historian Macau lay had spoken of William Penn, the founder of your Commonwealth, In terms which seemed to call for a Justification of that Disciple of Peace. I took up my pen in his derence, and since X have visited your'oeaa rifnlcountry, traveling as far as tho wild prairies. X have come to rest my poor feet in those very Btreet3 trod by that man who gave name to your beautiful city; end X will here say, what I have never said beiore to any living soul—[Hear!]—that, as much as I respect William Penn and his followers—their creed, their speech, their dress—l should have found lan guage too inadequate to express my admiration of his principles at that time if l had supbosed I should have found in this city of his founding, and at this very spot—[Hear! Hear!]—such beautiful ready-made first-class Clothing as'l bave seen this day on the counters of Charles stokes & Co.’s Clothing House, Hnder this hotel—[tremendous applause]—with the price marked on every article." “ Swinging Abound the Circle” is NOW UNDERSTOOD TO MEAN GOING PROM 603 AND 605 CHESTNUT oTRBET TO ABOUND THE CORNER ON SIXTH STREET, WHERE ON BOTH SIDES WILL BE FOUND THR BBOWN STONE CLOTHING HALL, B’OKHILL & WILSON, ‘ 603 AND 605 CHESTNUT STREET.

New 4* Continental Hotel, Hallo well' & Son, 534 Market street,; - Hallo well Views of a Cotton Planter. The New Orleana Bulletin has a letter from a planter of thirty years’ experience. The Bulletin says, It contains portant points: 1. Cotton may be made by white labor. There has never been a doubt o f the fact. The writer has heard Mr. Stephens, one of the most exact staticians in the South, ex press the opinion that one-sixth of the cot* ton was produced by white labor. It may be made to more advantage, however, on a larger scale and with systematic labor. <• 2. The freedmen have worked better this year than was expected,and it is to be hoped they will improve as they learn their obli gations as hired laborers. The experiment oi negro labor cannot be'made with one crop,nor can it be decided whether it be val uable until another generation of laborers shall have succeeded the present. The ne groes now employed have been reared to habits of compulsory industry. This train ing will last during their lives. 3. The Southern people favor immigra tion. In this we concur perfectly. Any man from anywhere that brings money to buy land, or industry to work land, or any thing else, will find a cordial welcome and civil treatment, in any part of the Sonfh. We consider the Planter’s letter, on the whole, a pretty fair document. Poisonous Gases fbom' Oil Damps.— Manv persons who use kerosene or ooal oil lamps are in the habit, when going to bed or leaving a room for a short time of turn ing the wick down low, in order to save a trifle of the consumption of oil. The conse quence is that the air of the room soon be comes vitiated by the unconsumed oil vapors, by the gas produced by combustion, and also by the minute particles of smoke and soot which are thrown off. Air thus poisoned is deadly in'its effects, and the wonder is that more persons are not imme diately and fatally injured by breathing it. Irritation and inflammation of the throat and lungs, headache, dizziness and nausea are among its effects; Business Activity in North Carolina, —The Charlotte (North Carolina) Times says: “The streets have been crowded for the past few days with wagons loaded with the fleecy growth of a hundred cotton fields. The result is great activity in every depart ment ot business. The merchants are smil ing and good natored, and the clerks busy. This is the liveliest city in the State, and grows and prospers despite the murky cloud which radicalism throws over the po litical horizon. The University of Georgia.— The Savannah (Ga.) News says: “The State University is, we are pleased to learn, in a prosperous condition. The receipts of the college from the tuition of the students are between $7,000 and $8,000; and this, added to the $B,OOO of intertest guaranteed to the Uni versity by the State, enables it to sustain itself very creditably. Homicide Cases.— lra Mann has been convicted of murder in the second degree, at Newark, N. J. Yesterday a man named Patrick Gleason, residing No. 10 Furman street, Brooklyn, became engaged in a “street fight,” in front of his residence, and received injuries from which he shortly afterward died.
