TAX. ON COAL.
In consequence of the late hour, at which
the communication on this subject was re- -
ceived last week,we had time to append a few
remarks only, by way' of comment. We still
urge the simple objection then alluded to,
that other products of the land, wheat, corn,
rye !cc., might with the same propriety, be
taxed as well as Coal. .Coal is a product of
the land, just as much as the others, and
one too for which; as we shall (aow present
ly, the land is heavily taxed as st \ producing
medium. But suppose for a moment, that
the same policy were adopted in all the
States, and each ooe ihould tax i for .State
revenue, that staple of 'which it produced
and exported the most. If Pennsylvania sets,
the example, and enriches her Treasury at .
the expense of her - sister States, we, may.
fairly expect that they . will also tax their
products. The South will tax its cotton—
the West will tax its agricultural Rrodticts,
— and the Eastern manufactures will, in sell
derenee, raise the price oT their goods. Be
sides the obvious impolicy of such a - course,
it is unconstitutional.. Na tax or duty is
allowable upon Articles exported from one
State to another. Coal is moreover one of
the necessaries of life—it - is just as indis
pensable to our comfort as bread.
But we have still another reason, why the
wise Canal Com Missioner's suggestion should
not be carried out. There is
,already a,suf
ficient tax on Coal—a tax heavier, in pro
portion, than upon any other product... If
unfrequently amounts to 3 or $4OO per
acre. A tract of land, for instance,' embra
cing several hundred acres, though perhaps
but one-fourth or one sixth of it is Coal land,
is assessed for State'and county purposes, at
an average value- of 870 (some tracts are
laxed at' $5O SSO and $l00,) tnahing the
owner or lessee pay a quadruple or a much
larger tax on the acres that -actually pro
duce Coal, although the rest of his tract is
comparatively tireless. This too, remem-
be'r, is fur wild mountainous - ountairio - us—lao
except for its Coal products, would iiarbe.
valued at more than $5. or $lO. an acre.
It is therefore plain that the Coal lands,
as such, are ;axed even higher than lands
yielding other products, and that to impose
additional duties would necessarily_ tend to
crush , caurely the interests of a trade, already
crippled and burdened by other influences.
Such a recommendation comes with a very
bad grace (ruin uue,' of .whom we 'naturally
expected every eucourag,ement, that would
tend to develop the resources of the State,
and extend her business capacities. We
fear the people may regret their unworthy
choice. Instead of such a course, tending
to check the increase of so valuable a pro
duct, every lawful means should be used to
relieve its present embarrassed condition,aud
every inducement presented to extend and
encourage the trade.
RR. HIINTRWS BILL
Many inquiries are made respecting the
operation of this Bill upon the Coal and
!rod' Interests. Several explanations have
. already been given—we published one last
week from the Philadelphia Ledger. Hon.
C. W. - Pitman, our Representative, who has
just returned from Washington, gives us
the following still further explanation. The
construction, - that will be put upon • the Bill
by the Secretary of the Treasury, will em•
brace all costs and charges, including freight,
except Insurance. If these costs amount to
$6 on Iron, the additional `Protection at 30
per cent. will be 61,80 per ton. On Coal,,
the cost and charges being about equal to the
value of Coal abroad, the present duty Will
be nearly doubled. This duty on Coal is
quite sufficient, so fir as mere protection to
that article is concerned, but the advantage is
of very little practical benefit in the end, if
the consumers are not also protected.
Mr. P. states that this is the version given
the Bill by Secretary Corwin himself.
Since , the above was in type, we ob
siro that a writer in the Philadelphia
Notih American denies that freight is inclu
ded under the head of charges," aucteonse
quently that this recent act gives no addition
al+proteation to any interest, other than
was afforded by the act of 1846. But the
opinion given above , differs from this last
suggOtion, and Mr. Pitman assures us that
,he slrt4lo on the Secr e tary personally,for the
purpose of obtaining his construction of the
PEOPLE'S ROAD.
Mr. Dobbins has presented, in the Lower
House of the Legislature, a Bill for a charter
for the new road, and we learn that thechan
ces of its success are still highly favorable.
We would recommend that a Mass meeting
be called in the County as early as possible,
anti that a committee 4e appointed to 'visit
Harrisburg, and other measures adopted to
second the endeavors of our Representatives
in favor of the project. :
The making of a new road is the only se
curity the people'of this County can have
against the curtailment of their business ca
pacities, and the final ruin of the trade of
the Region. Those who control the Rail Road
do not seem to have any interest in com
mon with the people of the County--on the
contrary,the evident tendency of theircourse,
manifests a spirit directly hostile and adverse
to our interests. and the sooner we render
ourselves independent of them, the better our
prospects for future wealth and prosperity.
(CrJustice to the Volunteers.—The mem
bers of the &Cond. Regiment of the Penn
sylvania Volunteers In the Mexican War;
have submitted a lengthy report to the State
Senate, correcting ceitain erroneous impres
aions, in regard to the Ist. and 2d. regiments
having received gratuitously large sums of
money from 'the General Government, to de
fray their expenses during the war. The
false impression originated in misrepresenta
tions, made in a repoit by the Finance Com
mittee, to the Senate of the session:of 1847.
The memdrialists endeavour to expose the
injustice done these two regimentsof Volun
teers by that Committee. They handle the
affair without glover's.
17Schuylkell atrial qpened—The first
boat arrived at Philadelphia on Monday last
from Reading by the canal. It is presumed
he whole line will be opened next week.
The Cotamittee on Divorce", in the Lower
House 'uf the Legislature, were unable to
agree in the case of Dr. William Wetherill,
and on motion, Mr. hiciteynolds,ot Columbia
county, was added on Saturday last. •We
are rather surprised at this, as we had hardly
supposed there could be a division of senti
ment on a question so plain. We may ex
pect to see the Bill before the House shortly.
as there is now a majority , one way or the
other. We lately observed that a,•remosi
strance against this application of Dr.= Weth
erell had been gotten up in Philadelphia,
signed by'a number of the ablest divines,
and most influential citizens—among whom
were Bishop yotter, Rev. Dr. Chapman,
Rev. Dr. Boardman, Rev. Dr. Don, and
others, on the ground that it iwas setting
a bad example and encouraging immorality.
The case is exciting very general interest
throughout the whole State. We shouldn't
like to stand in the shoes of any member who
votes in favor of the Petition, for, like Cain,
he will havc a mark set upon him.
We believe that nothing will so much
tend to the advantage of railroads as low
paying hues. It is large numbers in the ag
gregate which tell best on the receipts alter
all. When our present postage law was
reformed . from 25 to 10 cents on letters for
whatever distance, many predicted that the
expense would far overtop the revenue.—
This has been tried and found to result in
quite a different balance—it being in favor
of the low postage. There is a minimum
point in low fares, but in many railroads
they have not descended to that point, al
though if they would, we have no doubt, but,
as in the ease of letter postage,the result would
be beneficial. We like to see cheap means
for the many to travel. It makes man more
human to see the world run round in a rail
road car. Railroads are grand means for
facilitating travel and brushing away the
mat from drowsy swains, and nothing can
tend more,to this than Cheap trains.--Scien
fific American.
That's the doctrine exactly. This is the
policy we have alivays advocated. Nothing
would tend more to enhance the value of
property, an d to develop the resources of
the Valley of the Schuylkill, as well as to
enrich our lines of public improvettient,fle
a reduction on their rates of fare and toll.
It would give a new impetus to business.
The agriculturalists would be encouraged—
manufactures would be established—travel
and transportation would be increased, and
the reciprocal action of the two distinct in
terests would greatly promote and increase.
the wealth of both.
Gas or no gas seems to be , the questiOn rn
Reading. The City Fathers are inclined to
leave the people in darkness—they don't
want to touch the subject.
The question to us is, very plain one—
especially since we :an now speak from ex
perience. Reading should be well lighted
=every town should be—it is beneficial in a
moral point of view, as well as for mere
convenience. Now whether gas is or is not
the best, and,in the end, the most economical
light in' this age of new inventions, depends
probably upon the taste of the consumer.—
We are pleased Vith ours, although the
price is rather " salty":—but nothing could
induce us to return to the leeks and on
ions ". and oil lamps of our Aegyptian his

We observe several recent attempts at
burglary in Reading. There is nu surer
way of curing such disorders thairbf bring

Among the bills passed at the last session
of Congress, and which, with the sanction,
of the President, now become laws, the
following may be enumerated as the most
important :
The General Appropriation bills, tha bill
making appropriations to Light louses, the
bill to prevent Constructive mileage, the
bill limiting the Liabilities of American
Ship Owners, the bill to ascertain and settle
Private Land claims. in California, the Joint
Resolution authorizing the• President to send
a GovernMent Ship to the Mediteninean to
bring Kossuth and his Companions to the
United States, the Resolution to extend to
the widows of Revolutionary Soldiers the
benefit of the Act of 1841-3-4, the bill to
provide au Asylum for aged and disabled
Soldiers, the resolution making Bounty
Land Warrants assignable, the Postage bill,
the bill in relation to Post routes, and the
bill appointing General Appraisers of Mer
chandise.
Mr: Frailey read in place a bill on Friday
of last week proposing to extend: the limit of
Fifty Dollars contained in the let and 2nd
sections of the Act Of Assembly of February

of Miners, Mechanics and Laborers; to One
Hundred Dollars, as far as refers to the Coun
ty of Schuylkill.

discussion.
0:7"“. Raked Down."—Marshall Tukey,
with a posse of officers, made a descent up- '
on ten gambling establishments of Boston
last week. A number of arrests were made
—many of the victims belonged to "first
families. " They were hand•cuffed and
strung together, like marketable onions, to
the number of several scores, and
. handed
over to close quarters, for safe keeping and
a wholesome diet at the expense of the Com
monwealth. The affair has created con
siderable sensation in the city.
The stakes, grabbed by the Matshall,",
amounted to near $3,000. The gamblers,
numbering 86, old and young. were brought
before the Police Court on Tuesday last,
and mulcted, to the tune of $5, each. They
took the matter very coolly—a great many
jests and witticisms were delivered on the
occasion.

DISCOVICIIIICS BY ACCIDIIL, TIT
The chief discoveries in the arts hare been made
by accident, not from forethought or a deep knowl
edge in the principles of nature.
We copy-the above from an Exchange,
commenting upon the accidental discovery
of the manufacture of plate glass.
To the casual observer, the remark seems
correct ; accident, • alter all the noisernade
about labor and study and research, is the
author of our greatest artistic and scientific
'discoveries, and consequently of our greatest
blessings. But the premises are fallacious,
and hence the 'conclusion deduced is fairly ;
incorrect. There is a deep current of,thought
—of philosophical reasoning, that flows si
lently, but steadily beneath the bubbling
surface of mere circumstances or occident.
This the uninitiated and careless cannot or will
not fathom, brit draw their conclusions from
mere superficial observation. Newton had,
for many yearS, been sounding the depth of
his inventive genius, to conjure up some way
of accounting : tor the phonomena of gravita
tion, before the accidental all of an apple set
his thoughts in the happy train, that resulted
in his immortality. This phenomenon was
nothing unusuaL Why had not the same
thing suggested the same result before'? or
_why could norothers, who witnessed similar
phenomena emery day, draw similar inferen
ces ?
The discovery of the first application of
steam power, is attributed to the simple act
of Capt. Save!) , dousing the neck of a heated
wine bottle into a basin of cold water. But
think you the Captain had never reflected
upon the subject before? Think you he had
never imagitied a thousand ways of accom
plishing his favorite end ? The subject was
by no means 4 new one ; every body in Eng
land was, at that time, more or less occupied
with the great practical question of pumping
nut the water from the mines of the country.
Capt. Savery had,uo doubt, busied himself fur
months in a problem of so general interest
and importance. It was always .first and .
uppermost in his,thoughts, and his ever ac
tive mind readily found an excuse for the•
silly experiment of the wine flagon, in the
conclusion it instantlysuggested for his long
sought labors.
So with Taqicelli, iii his discovery of the
phiiosophic phenomenon, which bears his
name, and his refutation °file dogina of the'
wiseacres of:theday,that " nature abhorred a
vacuum." His labors, on the principle of
our Eichange, ought to be credited to the
experience of an old Ittilian well-nigger. So
with Galvanism ; so also, it is said, the plan
of the safety-valve of the Steam-Engine was
first tried by:a boy, whose genius suggested
the placing of a weight on the valve, as a
ready excuse' from a tedious job. Thus a
host of examples might be mentioned, in
which accident has played a part equally
conspicuous,
On the co4trary. the discovery of our con
tinent may justly . be attributed to accident.
Columbus left the shores of Spain, with an
'entirely different Object in view—he wished
to find a Weperu passage to the Indies, and
in the prosecution of his experiment, ran
blindly against the new-world. Nor was he
the wiser, historY tells us, for some lime
afterwards. Hence the name, Indians, he
gave to the inhabitants of the newly discov
ered country, thinking it a part of the Indies
—the object of his voyage. This was acci
dent. But not so with Newton and Torri
celli and Sacery. They had for years been
in search of truth. The ,same phenomena.
which finally determined the results of their
investigations had occured again and again
—but their minds were not ready for such
developements. But when, after years Of
toil, the little seed of truth, long and patient
ly cultivated, had at length matured - and
was just ready to burst its gentle bonds, and
unfold its beauties to the astonished world,
an accident-the fall 'of an apple, or the su
perstition of an ignorant well-digger, occurs
just in the niche of time, and'the truth flash
es like light upon the delighted mind.
Perhaps our own Kirkwood may look back
and bless the day, when some schoolboy, in
in his unsophisticated simplicity, scrawled
upon the blackboard the proportion, which
formed the key to that beautiful ‘, analogy,"
that has since rendered its author famous.
But the boy—the boy, says our authority, de-
I serves the credit. It was he that, by acciden
tally dotting down a few figures, gave rise
to this great discovery, that has since joined
two names, Kepler andllirkwooti, by ties that
the lapse of ages will not be able to sever.
No, the same figures had been written a
thousand - tithes before, but no Kirkwood was
there to interpret them. He had seen the
same proportion many a time, but his mind
was not yet prepared to comprehend it. It
required years of labor, and deep faithful
research, followed by repeated disappoint
ments,' before the chain ofrreasoning was
fully complete, and the mind properly fitted
to grasp a truth so comprehensive. Acci
dent, far frOm being the cause, is but an item,
collateral and insignificant, proportionate to
the final result, in the long succession of
reasoning, necessary to obtain it.
(17° Curious. Case.—A requisition has
been made by Gov. Johnston,upon the Gov:
ernor of Maryland, for the person of J. S.
Mitchell of: that State, to be tried for a via
lation of the laws of this State against kid
napping. Gov. Lowe refuses to give him
up, on the ground that he was the owner of
the woman' who was carried' to Maryland
from Philadelphia, by Alberti and Price, who
were lately'convicted of kidnapping her child,
which was born in Pennsylvania, and which
by the laws of Maryland would be a slave,
but by our laws free. Mr. Mitchell, it is
asserted was never in Pennsylvania and
committed no offence against our laws.

1851.—Covet commenced ai 11 o'clo ck, A. 'M and
after the usual bosiziess oethe morning was finished,
his HonOr, Lather Kiddee, l informed this GrandAury
that a greater amount of criminal brucinesswonist6i
presented to them than uSual, during the week. In
his charge, he stated, that froth information laid ber
fore the Coati, dissipation and drunkenness pres
veiled, to en alarming eiteat, throughout the Coal
Region, in ecinsequennei of the numerous Porter
and Beer Shop, in aftnest every portion of the
county ; and that be vionld call their attention, more
particularly, to the law, upon the subject, during
the sitting of the Jury.
The first case called was the Commonwealtb'es•
David Kugler—Surety of the Peace, on oath of
Jeremiah Gerber. In consequence of some misun
derstanding between the Parties, the Court made no
disposition of the' costs but dismissed the case—
David Kuglerbeing, a mere lad, only fourteen years
of age, and his lather-berg bound over to answer a
similar charge.
I Com. vs. Frederick Kugler, surety of the peace,
l on oath of Jeremiah Getter. 'The parties, in this
case, it appears, live in the township of West Penn,
and stood in the relation:of landlord and tenant. lt,
appeared, in evidence, j that Mr. Keugler gave a
lease to Mr. Gerber, fora number of years, but in
conseqUence of his failing to comply with the con
ditions thereof, Keugter insisted upon his leaving
the Said farm, and, surrendering the lease. In con
sequence of Gerber declining to comply with this
polite request, Keugleeused some strong language,
accented with some choice oaths, which frightened
Gerber, who complained to a Justice of the Peace
and K. was bound over to answer at our Sessions.
After hearing the evidence, the Court sentenced
Mr. Keugler to pay the costs of the prosecution,
and to give security to iieep ttuipeace! for 6 months .
I in the sum of one hundred chillers. -Mr. Keugler
complied with the sentence, and left the Court
1 with a sorrowful heart.i
Corn. vs. Mary Sitter, disorderly house, on oath
1 of Charles Lawton, Chief Burgess of St. Clair ;Jiiry
trial. This was en action against Mrs. Sitter, for
keeping a disorderly house is the borough of St.
1 Clair. The Conimouvsealth, upon the trial, gave
' in evidence the general ,chareeter of the house, and
several witnesses swore positively that they heard
dancing and fiddling there, at all hours of the night,
—that at these times they saw the girls fighting,
pulling hair, iSre , and drinking spirits, and some of
the nice young men stated that they remained there
courting the ladies EMUI the small hours of the
morning. In consequence of there being but one
count in the indtctment, viz. for-adisorderly house,
the Jury acquitted Mary of the 'charge, but after
'the verdict, several stated that, had there been a
count in the indictment, charging her with keeping
dtippliaghouse, a different verdict would have been 1
tendered. The Court, however, after the acquittal, I
called-Mary before them, and informed her, • that if
she ever came lielore' them again; uporia similar
charge, the law should;be dealt out to her hi a dif-
ferent manner. "County for costs.
COM. vs. Jenkin ROvards, disorderly houseon
oath of Chas. Lawton; Chief Burgess of St. Clair :
Jury trial. This was a case of similar character
I with the preceding one; The mass of the evidence,
however, we.' stronger on part of the. Common
wealth, but the personal infirmity of Jenkin Ed
wards rendered hint an object of sympathy with
the Bench and Bar. ft is well known that poor
Jenkin is but n mere cipher in his own house, con
sequently many. honest persons wished the
,wite
was only placed in his position. After consultation
with his Attorney, Edwards withdrew the plea of
not goilty, and substitined that of guilty, and the
Court sentenced him to pay a fine of five dollars and,
the costs of prosecution. Not having the eight°
defray the same, Jenkin commenced boarding with
C. M, Straub, High Sheriff of the County.
Corn. vs. John Heiriner, Assault and Battery, on
oath !of John Mennig. Grand Jury, returned the
bill Ignoramus, and the Court sentenced the prose
cutor John Mennig, to the costs of prosecution

V for costs

James Richards—"lgnoramus." County for wits.
dom. a. Wm. Hoff, Thos. Snyder and George
Gebble, forcible entry and-detainer, on oath of
Petet Filbert ; Jury trial. This was quite an in
teresting case, and was warmly contested by the
Anon:nes Messrs. John Batman for the Plaintiff,
and F. W. Hughes for Defendant. The facts of the
case appeared to be as follows—Mr. Filbert
the owner of a large tract of land, situate near
the village of Pinegrove, welt coveted with timber,
and during the Spring of 1850, Wrn. Hoff, who It
appears had purchased some old out standing title
to the same land, and being desirous of making the
most out of it, sent a large number of men upon it,
who commenced cutting timber and peeling bark,
&c. Mr. Filbert on hearing that Mr. Hoff was
cutting limber upon his land, started in company'
with a neighbor, and after a long search, found Hoff
and three or four men cutting timber and peeling
bark. Filbert ordered him off hfS land, and ad-
cancel to take him by the arm, when . Mr. Hoff
squared off , and gave him a touch of the "flyer
Law."
For this Assault and Battery, Mr. Hoff was bound
over to answer et our Sessions, but, in consequence
or a mistake having been made by the Attorney, in
drawing up the indicent, he was acquitted. In
the indictment the offence was s laid as having been
comoutted in Pinegrove township, when it was in
tact committed in another. In this manner malty
times offenders escape from a mere technical error:
Both cases were tried together, and having been
warmly contested, occupied two days, and the At•
tornies concerned acquitted themselves in a very
creditable manner. Hoff was sentenced to pay the
cost.
Corn. vs. Mrs. Elisabeth Parry,lfiaoiderly, and
Tippling House, on oath of Mary Kennedy. This
was one of the fancy actions, which the Beer and
Porter Houses of Pottsville send into oar Sessions
every Court. It was in evidence, that Mrs. Perry
sbld. Ale, Beer, Porter, Brandy and Whiskey,tand
that she boarded several ladies who gave Social
Cotillion Parties, which adjourned at three or foils
o'clock, A. M., and sometimes at day break in the
morning. These social re-unions were continued
every night, until at last the neighbors entered com
plaints against Mrs. Parry, for "noise, confusion,
assaults and battery, fee," and Mrs. Parry came t 6
Orwigsburg to answer for her little amusements,
and the Jury found her Guilty, in manner and form

Corn. vs. CharleX Kipp, Larceny of a Pocket
Book, on oath of Terence Duffy ;'Jury trial. This
was a strongly contested case. The circumstances
were as follows :—Terance Duffy was in company
with Kipp at the Mount Carbon Hotel, some time
during the month of February last, and being in a
social mood, be inviied the, defendant to take a ea
cialglass. Mr. Kipp, being thirsty, accepted the
polite invitation, am; he and Mr. Duffy went into
Gin eock4ails very extensively, or Gin cock-tails
went into them, and the usual consequence soon
developed itself, and both soon became quite intoxi
cated. Mr. Duffy exhibited his money, $4O, to all
the perions in the bar-room, =A Mr. Kipp was seen
sitting near hijn, in the bar-room of Mr. 'Simpson,
and the, money wait not missed until Kipp left,
which he did in the evening (coal train. The motley
was not found inKiPp's possession, but when he
was arrested, sateen dollars were found upon his
person, when the keliper of the Prison at Beading
made the examination. t The Pocket Book of Duf
fy, was found near Norristoien, a few days after
wards, and sent to him; and was exhibited in Court.
The evidence againsi Kipp was all of a circumstan
tial character, but very many trifeling circumstan
ces pointed strongly to the prisoner. Character
was not raised, consequently his supposed good
character may, aid hits in hie boors of peril. Jury

Nothing adds so muck ; to the appearance of the

Silver. Tree, the Silver Maple, Horse Chistuu, dirc.
These are all pod shade-treei, and arskquite an

MINERSVILLE AWFAIIM•
Br Serious Accident.—The Bulletin reports
that on Monday morning list, whiles Coal Train
was passing Llewellyn, a lad, about 13 veers old,
while attempting to get on one of the cars, missed
his foot-hold, and, in consequence, had his legs
most terribly crushed between the wheel and the
body of the car. The Engineer, upon receiving
notice of the accident, instantly stopped the train,
when it waslound necessary to detach one of the
wheels in order to extricate the unfortunate youth.
Dr. Robins, of fdateriville, being immediately
summoned to the scene of the catastrophe, pro-
nounced amputation at present impracticable, by
reason of the boy's exhausted condition. His name
was Frank, son of Philip Dilcamp, of Llewellyn.
He was afterwards said to be doing well, though
but little hope is entertained of his recovery.
Mr. C. B. BeForiet has resigned his place•as
Postmaster, at Minersville," and is, about to leave
the borough. Mr. George Taylor has been ap
pointed to succeed him in the Post-office.

1121" B rata dissiiidt --We learn from the Map
that John Wisner, a' resident of Schuylkill Haven,
was brought, in a state of intoxication, before Esq.
Weston, of that place, on Sunday last. charged
with an Assault-and Bauery'upon the body of his
wife, with intent to kill. She being brought before
the Justice, testified that her husband had so beat
her, with kicking, 'Mocking, etc., that she was for
sometime in a state of insensibility. That usually
she could live with him very well, but that when
intoxicated he was a perfect monster.-Several of
the neighbors, attracted by the noise, rushed in and
found her in this senseless state, and him throwing
F
the chairs and other furniture at her.. He ' lared
to them that be would murder her, that had a
right to, du. Wisner was committed to t e Alms
House, from which he escaped several weeks since.
The Map adds its opinion that he is insane—
probably so, but we should think, trosn the circum•
stances, his is an insanity easily smarted tor. If
Runt were kept out of hid way; ha Might become
not only sane, but sober Md.

LIFE INSUBANCE.—There E. perhaps, nothing
.nat creates so severe a pang on the death bed as the'
reflectiou that we are leaving those we love, per
haps a wife and children, dependent upon the cold
charity of the .world! Therefore every one in life
should prepare for Ibis emergency. it tun be done,
even by the poorest, through the agency of Life Insu
rance
Every man who loves his family ought to• get his
life insured. Every man In debt,and owning property,
ought to bave'bis life Insured, lent at his death his
ptoperly may be sacrificed. There are but few who
could not save a small sum annually to Insure their
lives; which if not Invested in this way would be
spent perhaps In trifles, and theirfatullles thus left to
penury and want.
Life Insurlnte is becoming just as common In iris
couniryati Fire Insurance; and ;should be more so
Wives persuade your husbands—you can save enough
in your household antis to pay the enema premium
without feeling it—and the reflection that you are pro
vided for, will alone be a MI recOmpense for the out
lay. Yon can Insure the lives of your husbands for
your own beneflt,and the amount cannot be touched
by their creditors in case of their death.

application to B. BAN NATI. at the Mee of the Miners'
Journal.
WE INVITE PARTICULAR ATTENTION TO A
new feature in Life Interlace which will be explained
by calling at this office. It obviates one of the great
difficulties in Life Inanrsnce, While at the same time,
it does not diminish the fecority.'7
