SLEEPY PRoDUcTIoN.-Sydney Smith left
no compeer His first review was the dawninr of
the ater-man. We must give it all. A Dr. Long
ford bad preached very dull sermon on behalf Of
the Humane Society. Sydney wrote:
An accident which happened to the gentleman
reviewing this sermon proved, in the most striking
manner, the importance Of this charity by restoring
TO life persons in whom the vital power is suspended
He was discovered with Dr. Longford's discourse
lying open before him, in a state OF most profound
sleep, from which ne could not be awakened for a
great length of time. BY attending, however, to
the rules prescribed by the Royal Humane Society
flnging in the smoke of tobacco, applying hot
fanneIs and carefully removing the Discourse itself
to great distance, the critic was restored to his
dsconsolate brothers. The only account he could
give of himself was, that he remembers reading on
Iegularytill ne came to pathetic account ola drown
ed tradeSman, beyond which he recollected moth

The BoUNDARY AND THE TREATY-I'hc last
news from Panama described the detention there of
Col. Weller,the Commissioner appointed to run the
new boundary Of the ella and the Rio Grande and
the small prospect there was of getting off within
any reasonable time. at least by OF the Calior-
MIA steamers In fact, there is, or there may be,
something awkward in Col. WIS. detention ut Pa
mama. The 9TH article of the treaty Of Gaudaoupe
Hidalgo requires tho Commissioners Of Mexico and
the United States to meet, for tine purpose of run
ming the boundary, at San Diego, before the exp-
ration OF one year from the date Of the exchange of
ratification of the treaty. The notifications were
exchanged at Queretaro on the 30lh day of May.
1919; and the year will expire on Wednesday next.

There's Policy IN Insurance!

HAVING been appointed Correspondent Of the
= Il New York ''MUTUAL BENEFIT LIFE
INSURANCE COMPANY" hereby give no
tice, that am prepared To receive and forward 10
the Company applications for INSURANCE., from any
person who may feel disposed to auaI himself of
the opportunity to provide for his family OF other
relations by insurng his life at very low rates. The
principles upon which this company was formed
have commended themselves to thousands whose
relations have reapcd the benefits of their precau-
ton, which is fully proven by the following state
ments.
''Thomas Saley, Of Baltimore, having come TO
his death from the effects of prevailing epidemic,
left to his otherwise destitute family -Four Thou
sand Dollars Insurance, money received from the
Mutual Life Insurance Company, which popular
corporation had insured his life for that amount"
''Sauuel Butler, of Virgins, respectable me
'chanic, was recently suddenly thrown from his
horse and killed instantly, leaving wife and six
children to lament his loss. We take pleasure in
Stating the unfortunate man, had his life insured for
Y'hree Thousand Dollars, which goes TO his wife
and children.-We understand that the insurance
was by the Mu,nal Life Insurance Company of
New York"
The undersigned can give many moro instances
Of the same character, bat regards it unnecessary
Any person desiring insurance can call at my Room
No. 81. Virginia Hotel, at the Store of Messrs
4. N. Green & Co., and at either place receive any
information that may be necessary, concerning the
principle Of Insurance.
