NosTH AND SourH-CHAkcks or LIFE
According to the New York Express. the
comparative mortality Of that portion Of the
United States north Of the southern line Of
Virginia and Kentucky, and Of the South, has
just been curiously developed In some tables
published by the Mutual Eifs Insurance
Company Of New York. It appears from
ten years practical results, that the morsah1y
among those who insure their lives north o.
the line named above, is less than one per
cent. viz. about % in every 10000, In the
section between the Sad degree Of north lati-
tude. "a few miles south of Savannah and
the Southern line Of Virginia and Kentucky,
the mortality among those who insure is l.,
l7l-2per cent, or III l-2 persons out Of every
10000.
Looking to the extreme Southern States,
says the Express, south of latitude 80 deg.
the mortality is nearly double that of the
Northern section,-ihe actual number of
deaths out of 10000 las insured) being 1885,
These calculations are entirely exclusive of
the present year. which has perhaps been
more fatal in the South than any period since
1890. The Actuary reports that
The disparity in the ratio of the amount OF
claims from death to the amount OF risk 10 these
three sections Of country. has usually been even
greater than that Of the simple mortality In them
Thus, during the first months of the present fiscal
year. from Let February 10 1a August.) the Com
pany has had ct risk In the 6rst section SIS
while the amount of claims in the section has been
s6a. 500, or s3s out of every $4,000 assured. In
the second section the amount at risk Is 81
and the amount of claims during the same time has
been 900, Sl33 out of every SIC, 600 assured
In the third section the amount at risk 81
while the amount of claims during the same time -
az, 900, or 1852 out of every $4,000 assured"
The increased mortality in the extreme
South, has compelled the Company to ad-
vance their rates of premiums on lives in
sured there, from one to two per cent we
should like to see some statistics showing the
comparative mortality of the central and
Northern States. Our impression is, that
Virginia, for example, is one of the health
est States in the Union, an impression which
we have no doubt would be confirmed by
reliable statistics.

CopPER ORE.-There are in front of Mr..
Vests bookstore, near the Exchange, some
most beautiful and massive specimens of cop
per ore, from the mine of Mr.. R. NJ Bowden,
in Louisa county. These are fine specimens
OF the mineral wealth of the Old Dominion.
This mine is within two miles Of Tolersville
Station, on the Virginia Central Railroad,
and fifty.seven miles from this city.
We perceive by certificate from DIR. Kee-
ner, of the Baltimore Smelling Company
that this ore yields 80 per cent pure copper.
We learn that these specimens are on their
way to New York, and that the mine will
probably be worked by New York Com
pany, unless some of our Virginia capitalists
should avail themselves of the opportunity,
and realize the profits among themselves.
