N. B. Craig, J. F. Kelly, A. Wylie, Jr
last Is SUR/tete E.---We refer our readers to an ad
vertisement of the "GIRARD LIFE INSURANCE, AN-
Y, AND TRUST COMPANY OF PHILADELPHIA,"
who have appointed W B AKE:WELL, Esq, agent for this
city. We have no doubt thnt many persons will em
brace the opportunity it affords of protecting their fami
lies in some degree against the consequences of their
unexpected demise. Men are anxious to insure their
houses, ships, goods or other products of their industry,
so that they and their families may not be suddenly de
prived of the means of living. Yet the loss of all
these is easier borne by those dependant / him, than
the sudden decease, of the head of a hOuselsold in
moderate circumstances. The Life Assurance offers
a remedy for such misfortunes, as far as they can be
remedied.
The Company also receives money in trust, and ap
plies the same as the depositors may direct. A very
useful feature of the Institution.
M' The Packet Line on our Canal, have reduced
the fare to Philadelphia to EIGHT DoLLArts. Last
year it was $lO
I5Vt , The steamboat captains have generally and
promptly come into the measure of refusing to employ
steamboat runners.
DONT FORGET THE CONCERT at Duquesne Hall,
to night. The fame of Me PR I ct.irs is established
and a great musical treat ma}• be expected.
Baow.—What is the use of making predictions
about the weather? A fuw days ago we were satisfied
that there would be no more cold weather. Yester
day morning, the snow was 4 inches deep. It has
since disappeared, however, and the streets are in a
miserable condition.
[ay. We beg leave to call the public attention to the
valuable Lot of Ground, on Smithfield street, which
will be sold at Auction, this morning, at 11 o'clock,
on such terms as to tender it a desirable speculation.
Since that street has been repaired and lighted, it
furnishes one of the mrs:t convenient routs from the
Canal Basin to the Alonongahela Wharf, and must
shortly become one of the best business streets in the
city.
