THE Poor BOY.-Don't be ashamed, my
good lad, if you have patch on your elbow.
1t speaks well for your industrious mother
For our part, we should rather see dozen
patches on your jacket, than hear one profane
or vulgar word escape from your lips, or
smell the fumes of tobacco in your breath
No good boy will shun you b~cause you can
not dress as well as your companions; and if
a bad boy sometimes laughs at your appear
ance, say nothing, my good lad, but walk on.
We know many rich and good man, who
was once as poor as you. Fear God, my boy,
and if you are poor, but honest, you will be
respected-a great deal more than if you
were the son of a rich man, aud were addicted

Principles of Insurance.

Two cases have just been decided in the
New York Court of Appeals of considerable
interest to insurers and insurance companies.
The effect of these decisions is thus stated in
the Jour,sal of Commerce
.'Where real estate, insured against fire, is
transferred without the assent of the insur-
ance company, the mortgage, TO whom the
policy may have been assigned as collateral
security, cannot recover the insurance. In
other words, if A mortgage piece of prop
erty to B for So 1000. assigning the policy to
b, and b passes the title to without the as
sent of the company, the policy is void. In
the other case, The plaintiff, in taking out his
policy against ordinary risks, paid the de-
4endants an extra premium for the extra risk
of using camphene light in his store. A
memorandum of the transaction was made
on the back of the policy, but the agreement
was not inserted in the body of the policy.
The court held that the plaintiff could not
recover under the rule which excludes parole
evidence when the terms of contracts are
stated in writing"

From the ". y. Tribune
MIR. Roberts, the American Irage-
dian.

4 rainy night and thin audience attended
the first appearance OF this actor. Every
dhing was against him, and yet he succeeded
with his audience. In person, Mr.. Roberts
Is not up TO middle hight; but he has AN
intelligent head and an expressive cOuntC-
things which command attention,
& hight or no hight. The character which he
took-Sir Giles Observation-Disclosures little
scope for variety of delincation the language
ibeing composed of frrucious UuIpuuriugs.
with hardly an intermission, from first To-
tlast. There Is, accordingly in the text u
tconstant incentive for that kind of rage which
i5cOmcs under the head of rant; and with this
-1act before us, We must say that Mr.. Roberts
.mIjniy steercd clear OF the vice. His eNuulta-
,tion, as SiT Giles, however, on the approach

Asof the fifth act. but What deserves signal

kacors through his work. Like the great
8IErench actors, too, he utterly ignores his
Eaudience, and addresses himself III dialogue
Fstraig ht to the person with whom lac is
,speaking, looking him right in the eyes
Flhen in the colloquial parts he does not

ed RECOMMENDATIONS, bat speaks like man.
With certain eAceptions-such a. too loud
,stage whispers, and som, times too many eX
JDlosions 10 make a CLIMAX "A VCritable culmina-
tiUD-Mr. Roberts may lie cited as fine
actor, with evcr-prusent intellectually
;oloring and shaping his delneatious. We
have, in a word, seen no such Sir Giles
Overreach since the time OF the elder Booth;
and indeed, We imagine that Mr.. Roberts has
some merits of the new school 10 which older
actor were strangers. We mean particularly
IN his ability TO speak naturally. Without

A FEMALE MU.LIONAnE.-A respectfully
DIR ssed old lady, who fancies she owns the
larger part of New York, Albany, and other
cities, is in the habit of presenting, once or
twice week, a bill for few millions, of
dollars to Mr.. Comptroller FLAGG, who
kindly assures her that the amount demand
cd is not in the city treasury, but that he
will attend to her little bills as soon as pos
sible.--With this the lady expresses herself
satisfied, but intimates fears that the city is
going to ruin; and, pcnsively solemn at this
thought, sheE quietly retires from the Comp
trollcr's Office On ordinary topics, she
converses nationally; but either the indeXing
of the records or some other project Of muni-
cipal financiering. seems to have unsettled
her mind on these points.-N. J. Sun.
