The advantages of this contract need scarce
iy be urged upon wealthy men, or merchants
for they rarely neglect it, and if they do, fires
leave them other resources. It is especially
valuable to laboring men, mechanics and 9TH
ers of moderate means-who, perhaps, have
little else than home and its contents in the
world.
These should never neglect to insure; fire
that may visit them at any hour would leave
homeless, and with no capital but their labor
to begin again the struggle of life, and years
OF toll and watching must pass before they can
regain what they have lost, if indeed it is ever
done. To such, insurance is duty. IF the
individual is worth little, the expense is less il
he owns much property, sill, the expense is
triaing2 and by investing few dollars he is
safe. If he IS overtaken by misfortune and his
all laid in ashes, he receives a recompense in
cash capital equal to his loss, and may soon re-
store what has been destroyed.

GAS ALLEY This neighborhood,
located in the Sixth Ward, is the most
degraded in the city-rivaling, in
some things, the noted Five Points
of New York. Its dance-houses and'I
grog-shops are numerous, and are the
continual scenes ofbloody fights, rows,
and not unfrequently murders. The
families who reside there, appear to
be too fond of the degrading pleasures
of the neighborhood; and drunken
brawIs, between man and wife, father
and son, mother and daughter, are
not uncommon in Gas Alley. Mothers
and fathers are often found dead drunk,
