cAvALRT.-The efficiency Of cavalry is
beginning TO be acknowledged, although it
has been hitherto deemed by those high in
authority To be comparatively valueloss in
the present contest. The Columbus Jour
nal speaks thus of BirdsAll's Company who
were in Western Virginia;
This splendid Company of Cavalry, orig
inally from Cincinnati, who have done such
excellent service under Gen. Rosencrans, in
Western Virginia, returned yesterday 10 this
city via the Central Railroad, and immedi-
ately proceeded 10 Camp Chese, their time
having nearly expired. We learn that Gen.
ROsencranS speaks in the highest terms of
praise of their efficiency, and AYERS that
they have done what is equal to six months
service in the time they have been there
Immediately after they formed, they we're
ordered into service, and consequently wers
never regularly mustered into service. We
understood from one OF the Lieutensnts that
10 Of the company have expressed their
willingness 10 Immediately re-enlist for the
war. They numbered 9S men when they
left, and have now returned with 81. They
are fine, hardy looking fellows, and will yet
do good service for the government.

making the average annual division of pro-
fits to customers 43 per cent.
The company now pays out an amount of
$50, ,000 for dividends on stock and scrip, all
OF which was allowed for before declaring the
new scrip dividend, and yet allowing an ad-
diiion to the assets.
The participation plan is thus shown 10 be
a continued success. There are now five
years issues of scrip, all of which, in addi-
tion 10 the capital, form strong breakwater
of security against loss to the numerous in
surers. With over S1,0O0,6O0 of assets
double the amount Of the capital) and five
years accumulation of scrip, the insurers
are abundantly secured from the possibility
Of loss.
Cleveland morning leader. [volume] (Cleveland [Ohio]) 1854-1865, 1861-08-13
coNr1NrNrAL 1NsuRlNcE no.

This prosperous company has, since our
last issue, declared yearly dividend of 35
per cent. upon its earned premiums Of the
last year, increasing its assets at the same
from $993, ,29S % on the Ist July, 1860, to
Sl,O61, ,135 9s, and making the usual semi
annual dividend to its stockholders of per
cent, besides paying 6 per cent. interest
upon all outstanding scrip.
The past year has not been a very fa-
vorable one to the insurance interest in gen
eral, the losses fiom fire being above the
average, and most of the companies having
suffered from the depreciation in value Of
their investments in stock securities, which
have declined so heavily from the character
of the times. Stocks of all kinds have un-
dergone large depreciation. Though those Sc
curities will ultimately revive, yet allowance
must be made in the estimate Of their value
before dividends are made, as did circum-
stances require their realization at this time
a heavy loss would have 10 be submitted to.
The Continental suffers TO some extent,
but not very largely, in this way, as their
assets are mostly in bonds and mortgages OF
approved character, and in call loans. OF
their large assets only $3.50, 900 are invested
in bank or other stocks, and these are main
ly of the best New York city institutions
and Government stocks.
The subject Of the proper character of in
vestments for insurance companies is i'm
portant. The shifting value of stocks rem
ders them less fit than bonds and mortgages
or call loans with ample margins. The
Continental has upwards of $500, 900 of as
sets invested in frst-class bonds and mort
cages, which even in the present times
would bring at brief notice the whole money
/ so invested, without loss of interest, while
such could not be done with the stock in.
vestments. Hence the greater value o.
mortgages as an investment. This company
has also loans on call to the extent of nearly
5000, 900, so well secured as to enable then
| TO command the entire sum at once.
| The company has in addition q valuabl,
and improving real estate, including thei
present office, and extending fromsWall h
| Pine street. which brings in a revenue.
The present dividend is the fifth made t
the COmpany's customers:

Hymn manuscripts of which so much has

most probable they would dO-failed to find
anything up to the mark. They have ex-
smined 1900 poems, one third. of which
were accompanied with music. Every mu-
sical composition was performed once, and
those found sufficiently meritorious to be
worthy of more careful examination were
heard in solo and chorus. With comparative
ly few exceptions, the hymns sent in proved
to be of interest only to their writers as
rhymed expressions of personal feeling or
fancy. In accordance, however, with one of
the conditions Decomposition, themost mer-
itorious and noticeable of the songs received,
