Life Insurance.

We observe by The late reports OF different
! Life Insurance Companies, that the iucrease
ofbusiness Of this description in the country
the past year largely exceeds that of any
! previous year.
| This may he accounted for partly from the
fact that during the year past the attention
of many persons was directed TO this impor
tant means Of providing an Independence for
their family, by The raviges Of the Cholera in
different sections Of the country, vet the
published reports Of varions companies, ex
hihits each year an increased ratio in the
amount of their business. that demonstrates es
the increasing interests felt in this respect by
the people generaly., A few years since il
was regarded by most people as an imprac-
ilcable chlmeIa, TO think of establishing any
certain basis OF insuring ires ms in other
branches OF insurance. still we ihd that even
ai the low rates of premium now charged.
which are frequently one nail less than for
merly established in England, the cOmpg nies
are generally prosperous, and divide large
Dividends among the insured.
Many Csiforoia emigrants who have de-
parted on their petilous journey to that dis
tant region IN search Of the precious ore
have wisely provided their families against
the risk Of their deoease, by leaving life
policy, the premium being but little above
the ordinary rate.
We also learn from Mr.. J NJ TREAD
WELL, who is the Agent here for several of
the most responsible Life Insurance Compa-
3ies, that applications for insurance have been
forwarded to him from companies in other
Counties, who are now making arrangements
10 visit California. In one company of Is
persons, intending to go overland, about one
half Of the number have taken ihe precau-
tion TO insure their lives. We have known
OF number of instances where loans of
money have been made 10 persons visiting
California and life policy the only secnrl-
~ given the creditors being willing TO share
chances in returns from the 'El Dorado
Jackson Patriot.

versary Of The Republic on the Goth Of

Minister Of Finance states that the revenue
will be adequate TO the public service this
year without new loan or increased tax

letters to suspected persons, that conduct
has given rise to warm debates in the AS

are completely united on the refugee

Letters from London, states that the

GREEK QUEsTIoN.-The conduct of
Lord Palmerston in conductpg the Greek
Blockade is severely commented upon by
all the English journals, and were i not
for beliefthat exists that his I.ordship,hns
made the demonstration against Russia his
conduct would meet with general reproba-
ton.
The Prussian government has presen-
ted an energetic remonstrance against the
conduct OF the English government and
public opinion in general that the Car

The Russisn note to The Minister at
London says: You will demand of Lord
Palmerston to what extent he intends to
employ force in order that the alliance Of
King Ohio may be in condition 10 con-
slider what meanslt may be necessary for
them TO adopt to.guarantee the independ-

Her majesty has author zed the publics-

What, put her in Daguerreotype,
And victimize the pet!
I'm sure the colors she will gripe,-
The frames will overset.
The friskng, laughing, bouncing thing,
So full of life and glce-
A restless bird upon the wing
sunbeam on the sea.
Put shadows on that forehead fair,
That look ofquick surprise,
And give dull unmeaning stare
To those blue laughing eyes,
Now do you think chance you've caught!
Out with the colors, quick:
She's screaming at the very thought
of such shabby trick.
And now she's still--fy to the stand,
The smiling features trace;
In vain--up goes tinny hand,
And covers half the face.
Give up the task-let childhood be
Natures own blooming rose;
You cannot catch the spirit free,
Which only childhood knows.
Eartk's shadows DER that brow will pass,
Then paint her at your will;
When time shall make her wish, alas!
She were baby still.
