WHAT is LIFE INsURANcE?-1. 1t Is the eX-
ercise of prudence, of benevoence. 2. 1t secures
independence, domestic happiness 10 the widow
and orphan. 3. Is more efficaciousIn its opera
tons as regards the moral and domestic comfort
Of the people, and In its tendency 10 reduce taxa
ton, by its reduction of pauperism, and possibly
OF crime, than the legislation our wisest states
men; and, if universally adopted, would be ma
tional blessing. 4. II affords to persons OF every
class, and in every station of life, the means TO
avoid much future misery 10 their families, and to
render them independent Of spublic oi private
charity.
While it is the manifest and imperative duty of
every parent, curing his lifetime, TO embrace ali
able means of supporting and advancing the
interest Of his offspring, so il is equally his duty
to avoid leaving them at bis death to grope their
way in helpless poverty through an uncbaritable
world, and equally apparent is the duty of every
husband to provide, in case of his death, for the
surviving widow. To effect all which Life Insu-
rance Companies have been formed, which enable
every husband and parent, by the payment of
small sum, either nnually or quarterly, to pro-
vide for his widow and fatherless children.

FORTUNATE EEcAPs OF Coz. PREsToS
FROM DRows1sa.-By letter received IN
this city yesterday from Hon. William
Preston, our Minister to Spain, We learn
that on the Cd inst. he sailed with his fam
lily for Marseiles in q Spanish vessel, on
his route for Madrid. They had not pro-
ceeded far, when the vessel struck a rock,
and all the passengers were in imminent
peril. Col. Preston placed his wife and
two daughters in one boat, three daughters
in another, and embarked himself with his
son in third. The ladies were all landed
in safety, but the boat in which the Colonel
and his son were, was strsnded on the
rocky shore; the young gentleman was
thrown out, but was rescued by the inhabi-
tants who had gathered on the beach. The
Colonel himself was drawn back three times
by the reeeeding waves and undertow, and
though eventually he was saved by the
desperate exsrtions of Maltese and Caial.
40 boatmen, he was in an apparently life
less condition. Rsstoratives were efic-
iently administered, and we are pleased TO
state that at last advices the Colonel and all
his family were entirely recovered and had
gone back to Marseilles. The fortunate
Of an accident, which was fear
ful in its perils, will carry joy to the many
friends of our distinguished lownsman.-

GARIaALpr INvuLNERABLE.-A Nea-
politan correspondent of the Paris Presse
thus speaks Of GaribaldI:
The Neapolitans believe him invulnera-
able. When he is covered with balls,
they say, he has only to shake his red
shirt and they fall at his feet. 1t is prob
ably on account Of this superstition that he
has been saved thus far from the hand Of
the assassin. Remember that he entered
the city alone when it was defended by nu.
m erous soldiers-six thousand, it is SAID.
The forts were in their hands, and they
conld have burnt Naples. Beneath the win
dows of the Foresteria, where he addressed
the people, the royal guards was un-
der arms behind the closed shutters Of the
palace. The marines were at the arsenal,
making hostile demonstrations. The can
mons of La Carmina could have riddled the
carriage if the Dictator. as they rained on
the people on the same evening. And yet
Garibaldi passed twenty times through the
crowd in an open carriage. He remained
an entire evening at the st. Charles thea
fer. which hadbeen illuminated in his honor.
The carriage in which he rode from Saler-
no to Naples was full of strangers. He
reached the chateau Of st. Elmo on Sunday,
with few officers, and dismissed the gar
ri son in the simplest manner.

by her oun husband!
"Stung by remorse and fear, as ne saw
the cold paIor of death freezing her fea-
lures into everlasting silence, the wretched
man seized a razor, and drawing i. across
his throat, he fell bleeding upon the floor
beside the corpse of his victim! There was
only brief siruggle-a little calling out
or mercey-and John Wood had gone to
his account! And over the dead body OF
bis parents Arthur Wood took solemn
oath-Never. so long as the spark Of life
burned IN his breast, to swallo,O one drop Of
intoxicating liquors. +"
Judge Hallistop paused, but the speli'
bound company disturbed not the silence
He went on:
Harry Gordon, have loved you as my
own son-you are soon to stand in that
near relation to me, and now l wish TO warn
you against an enemy that walks the land
alike at midnight and at MONDAY; an ene-
nv which is found in the homes of the rich
as we'll as the poor. Will you bs admOn-
ished9 Will you heed my counsel? Shun
more-nay, million times more than you
would death-the wins cup! He'll itself
turks IN its depths, and eternal torment
burns in its crystal brightness. Harry
EarJ., ba,r,raf1
There was brief pause, during which
the face of young Gordon alternately paied
and flushed. There was strong influence
at work in his soul. Judge HallistOn saw
the impression he had made, and, turning
toward the company, he said:
"If anything more is needed, knov, then,
that John Wood was my taiher, and the
1rite whons he murdered, vhits under TIE IN
F'enee of ardent sptits, Tas the mother Tho
bore me! l, Arthur Wood Halliston, am
that son, who, besides the lifeless forms Of
my parents, took the oath of abstinence
which, by Gods Grace, has never been
broken"
Harry Goadon stepped forward and took
the hand of The Judge in both of his own,
1T is enough" he said, while the light
of new purpose irradiated his brow; I
solsmnly declare, in the presence of my
Creator and these witnesses, that hence
forth I will shun everything that can intox-
icate as would Satan himself! And may
God SO deal with ne as I keep my VOW"
Judge Halliston threw his arms around
the young man and kissed his forhead.
"A1ay heaven sanc,ify your promise,
Harry; and your life bear testimony IF its
truth"
And it was even so. Wine was BAN
ished from The home Of Harry Gordon, and
water, pure, beautiful water. rich from the
sweet fountains Of earth, was bis daily
drink. The fair face Of young Ellie Hal
llston never blushed for the conduct of her
husband, and when in after ysars the peo.
pie made him Governor Of his State, and
bis talents and fame brought him wealth in
abundance, he forgot not the experience Of
his lather.in-law, and accursed 10 him for-
ever was the wine cup.

Rich and Poor.

Mr.. Robbins, in a lecture lately de-
livcrcd in Boston, gives the following
facts : The average life Of the poor
est classes in Boston is about fourteen
years, or about onc-half that of the
better classes. Onc-haIf of the poor
or classes of the cities die in infancy.
In Providence, in 1853, thrcc-fourths
of the children under five years of
age die in consequence of impure air
and insufficient food and clothing. In
Philadelphia and Boston about half OF
the deaths are of persons under five
years of age. One-half of these in.
nocents die before they are twelve
months old. The number of children
under five years of age who die eve
ry year in New York, Philadelphia,
and Boston, is about p, 900. Of these
about 10000 are the children of pow.
erty, deprived Of fresh air, and the
other necessities of Il healthy cXis-
