Life Insurance in Tort Sumptcr.
Juet before the evacuation of Fort
Moultrie, and when an ss-ault upon it was
expected by tho whole garrison, au offi
ecr of tho United States Army, who had
bad his life insured, wrote to the Presi
dent of the Company inquiring whether
if he fell, his policy vould.be paid to his
family. Tbe President replied irumcdi
tely, " that although tbe company was
not legally liable where the assured fell in
battle, yet if he should thus fall now
whilst doing his duty gloriously and a
bandoned by the government, he neei
have no fears but that bis policy would
bo paid." An answer was received from
tho officer, written after the occupation
of Fort Sumpter, acknowledging most
gratefully the liberality of the Coc pany,
and adding that no his only anxiety wa
removed, lie expressed, also, in this, as
in his former letter, tbe most nolle and
patriotic sentiments, showing thnt the A
mcrican flag will not bo di.-bonored, while
it has such defenders. The Company
that responded to the officer's inquiry, as
we have described, was the Mutual Life
Insurance Company of New Yoik, repre
sented in Stroud'burgj by Win. S. Bees.
THE REBELLION.
Nothing since our ln.t issue ha trnns
pired to materially change the aspect of
the rebellion. The traitor are fully de
termined to rend asuuder thi Union t
any hazard. A Southern Confederacy
they are resolvod upon having. Thy
hope to have it in operation by the 20th
of February next. Georgia and Louis
iana have seceded and have ordered their
znomfeers in Congress homo; but David
eon, of Loui-iana, refuse to obey.
Mississippi blockaded the Mississippi
River for a few days, hut it is believed that
jibe has given up that notion. Tbe Ken
tuoky LegHfiture ha- refuod to csll a
Convention, and therefore we infer that
Kentucky will remain true to the Union.
Fears that the Capitol would be Reixd
by the traitors, were recently revived, bat
it is now thought that such measures will
be taken as will preclude tho possibility
of such a disaster and galling disgrace
befalling the Goterament.
Compromise is talked of by tho traitors'
and their abettors for the purposs of de
laying action against them fey the Gov
ernment, so that the rebels way perfoet
and suddenly put in execution their hel
lish, and suicidal saheme. No corcpro
miso can effect the rebellion for good;
and those who talk of it do sot understand
what they say. Tln-y have staked all on
rebellion and will puh it to tho farthest
extremity. The quicker this matter is
seen in its true light tho better. Had
the Federal "Government taovfd ia time
and secured the Southern Forts, tbe re
bels could easily, in tbe end, have been
brought to terms. But now ihey have
nearly all the Southern Forts and com
pletely command several important har
bors, which will render a blockade of their
ports more difficult and much more ex
pensive. But it will yet bo done not
withstanding. They taust be shut up
and starved until they regain their scn-
scs; ana men. u n snouia appear to ne
best that the Cotton States, their nymps-
thizcrs and negroes should be outride the
Union, they, perhapi, may be permitted
to go. But not till then. About nine
months blockade of their port3, we think,
will suffice to produce this result.
As strange and remarkable as it may
appear at this enligbteued age, there are
those who, in consequence of cowardice
party zeal or ignorance, or because of
having traitorous hearts, call loudly for
compromise. Compromise with whom ?
Why with traitors and robbers, who have
set at defiance tbe Federal laws and have
6eizekpon the National forts. Compro
mise with thc3o at the present juncture of
events! To do so, what would the Gov
ernment be worth I Bebellion in tbe fu
turo would be encouraged ; the Govern
stent would be demoralized; would cease
to command respect at home or abroad,
and, ot no distant day, would crumble
and fall to pieces. Compromise with tho
traitors and thereby recognize their right
to rebel? No. The Federal laws must
be enforced if our hitherto glorious Un
ion is worth' preserving. And we trust
they vill be if there-is virtue, wisdom and
fcpfrtisni enough in tho pooptato adcoto-
ish it.

A Conspiracy to Assassinate Gen. Scott.
The "Wellington special Correspondent
of the Tribune, says: From information
obtained accidentally, there is reason to
fear that a conspiracy to assassinato Gen
Scott was formed recently, and that eev.

Pennsylvania Legislature.
ITAnnisiiURa, Monday, Jan. 28, 1SG1.
Tn tho Sennte to-dav Mr. Smith of
Philadelphia offered a bill authorizing
j-uits to be brought against cities aud
counties where fugitive slaves may be
rescued by mobs with violence tbe citie
and counties to recover a penalty inflicted
upon themselves from the individuals aid
ing in the rescue; the individuals ball be
punit-hable with a fine of $1 ,000, solitary
imprisonment for three years, or either
pennltv. The some gentloman offered a
resolution authorizing the Governor to
appoint five Commi-.sioners to meet the
Virginia aud Maryland Commissioner
at Washington on the 4th of February.
The resolutions will bo called up to-morrow.
In tbe House a resolution was offered
by .Mr. Randall, for the appointment of
seven Com mis"ioner!i to Washington. It
wa-s di.-cucd, and made the special or
der for to-morrow. It will probaMy pa?.

The Slect Committee of ibo Senate

relative to compensation to owners of re3

The Coal Trade.
The quantity of Pennsylvania anthra
cite coal brought to market in the year
SfiO, was about eight and a half milliont
of tou, or double the quantity reported
ten years ago. In addition to this large
dosnoftic export, there i- at least a mil
lion and a half tons consumed at tbe point
of production in Eastern Pennsylvania,
or produced in the Western portion of the
State.
Ned Price, the well knov7n "buffer,''
who accompanied Hernati oh his iparrio

The Admission of Kansas.
Kansas is at last in the Union. The
House thought it better to accept the Sen
ate's ametjdiuent creating a judicial dis
trict, than to run the risk of returning the
bill, although it was intended for the ben
efit of John Petit. If the President should
nominate him under this act be will be
0i to linger some time before confirma
tion; and perhaps till after the 4th of

RaSing a Penal Offence.
The Chief of Police of Philadelphia,
has been in-tructed by tbe Mayor to warn
the proprietors of public houses, where
rafflioir for poultry is allowed, that the
practice is contrary to law and must be
discontiued. The law says, any person
who s-hull t-et up, cstabli.-h or cause to be
set up, &c., any game or device of address,
or hazard witb cards, dice, billiard balls,
"hufiieboard, or any other instrument at
which money or valuable things may or
shall be played for, staked or betted upon
shall be guilty of misdemeanor, and, on
cohvrotion, be sentenced topay a fine uot
exceeding $500, and undergo an impris
onment not exceeding one year. The
owner, tenant, or occupant of any place
where such games are allowed, is like
wise liable. The owner, who knows of
such games being allowed, and does not
complain, is not liable. So likewise, the
person who through solicitation, invita
tion, or device, persuades pcroons to en
gage in such games.

' Another Robbery.
It was discovered yet-tcrday, 83 tho re
sult of a protracted scrutiny in the Land
Office, that a number of warrants for sev
eral thousand acres of land had been ab
stracted. Some of them were sold in Bal
timore. A clerk' wbo resigned some time
ago,. and"one recently dismissed, are sus
pected. The whole public sorvico here
and elsewhere is demoralized, aud defal
cations and robberies may be expected
uptint i thoroughly purged.
Interesting- from the Oil Region.
The report from tho oil region contin
ue as hopeful as ever, ; The Pittsburg
Chronicle says that the pumping wcils are
yielding finely, and new strikes are free-
quent. Ot the quantity oi oupuuiueu
daily, some idea may be formcd from tho
fact that within two days, last wcckJwQ
thousand cijrht hundred barrels were
shinned at two stations on the Sunbury
and Eric road. This was wonu, aaj oiw
per barrel, and gave employment to up
wards of four hundred teams. They have
had good slcddiug up there since rhe first
of December, which is favorable for get-
finer tlin nil ta market; but bow this is to
be aceoainli-hed wheu tho roads break
up in the spring is a question yet to be
determined. Think of three hundred to
four hundred wocons, heavily laden, pass-
in daily over a common road, when the
frost is cominff out 1 A railroad from
some point on the Sunbury and Erie will
have to. bo made to tho centre of tho oil
ration. One or two refineries arc in pro
n.tsc rv r nrnnf inn HOOT Titusville. This will
will save tho cost of trausportatidn of
certain per centage of the crude oil, which
ia lot in the process of refining; but, on
tho other hand, tho high price of coal,
now commanding twenty-five cents per
Wlml .it. that nlace. will be a serious
drawback. It is true, wood is plenty
but the owners of it are looking forward
to its ultimate value, aud oven now are
demanding double price. It is not as safe
a fuel, moreover, as coal, as danger is to
bo apprehended from the emission of
sparks. In fact, this objection is not con
fined to refineries, but extends to an cm

Wheu this whole business shall have
been transferred to Northern channels by

2?When Lola Montez weut to Cali
fornia as an actress, she engaged, an a
geut. This gentleman was a married
man, with two children, and seeing him
unhappy in their absence, she presented
him with sufficient mbnpy to hring them
and their mother on. Shortly after their
arrival, the husband died. Lola then a
dopted the widow and orphans educat
ing the latter at Mrs. Wallard'd semina
ry at Troy. An officer io the United
States navy fell in love witb one of those
girl, and Lola, literally acting in loco
parentis, approved his suit. During her
last visit toEnlaud, the marriage took
place. Lola did not again encounter her
protege (who accompanied her husband to
a distant State, where he was detailed
for public duty) until a recent period,
when she met her walking down Broad
way, in company with a lady of the high
est ton. With her usual impulse, Lola
rushed to her young friend literally the
child of her cb.arity as to embrace her.
The young lady coldly drew back, and
said, "Madam, I do uot know you!"
"Not know me? I am Loja Montez."
"Madam," bo exclaimed, as she turned
coldly away, "I know you not I never
saw you before, and if you persist in
peakiog to me, I will calla police man,"
and walked away. Lola went home,
'more in sorrow, than iu auger," and that
same. day had the first attack of paraly

her.
