The trials and convictions for 1852, as shown by
the above table, do not agree with the report
had the honor to submit last year but it has been
ascertained that that report was not quite full, and
the above exhibit is correct. | should also observe
that few of the above convictions for 1888, say
from to 10, were appealed and the appellants ac-
Quilted but have no meaas of knowing the ex-
act number.
A specific and comparative view of all the OIL
fences, together with the convictions and acqnit,

The number of penal Offenses has increased in this
District during the past year, there having been
923 convicts in 1853 against 735 for 1852. But
this increase has not been in the more serious Of
fenses, known as crimes, felonies, but in those
lighter ones, ranked as msdemeanors. The fol-
loving table will exhibit the whole number of per
sons prosecuted, the number convicted, and the
number acquitted, for the year 1853 and 1857.

The Advantages of this contract need scarcely
be urged upon wealthy men or merchants for they
rarely neglect it. and if they do, fires leave them
other resources. 1t is especially valuable 10 la
boring men, mechanics, and others of moderate
means-who, perhaps have little else than home
and its contents in the world.
These should never neglect to insure;a fire which
may visit them at any hour, would leave them
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, it indeed il is ever done
To such, insurance is duty. If the individual
is worth little, The expense is less; if he owns
much property still the expense is trifing, and by
investing few dollars he is safe. If he is over
takeu b. mi7fortune, and his all laid in ashes, he
receives recompense in cash capital equal TO
his loss, and may soon restore what has been de-
stroyed.

They were promised that no territorial
