the note resided At Fulton City in this State, |

made payable, its being by its terms made pay

One Of the most reliable insurance Journals
Of the East contains in recent issue the fol-
lowing, evidently intended as . very severe
charge against wel-known insurance firm
in this city. The public accepting the fact,
possibility Of a doubt that they will not carry
out all they promise to do, will deem the nit
jgating circumstance Of the present war time
q sufficient reason why cheap insurance should
follow the reduction OF ill the other necessa-
ries Of life:
Permit me, through your columns, to call
the attention OF certain Insurance Companies,
represented by L. c. Hall j. Co., to the fact
that Il reduction Of twenty-five per cent. has
been made by them, from the standard rates Of
place, and to inquire whether such reduction
has been authorized, and whether it is neces-
sary.
The companies referred to might reply that
their Chicago agents have failed to obtain for
them full line Of the risks alluded to, and the
reduction Of twenty five per cent. will lead to
an increase Of business. They must perceive
that if HALLS tariff proves remuneratiye to
their stockholders, it should be equally SO to
the companies from whom the business is to be
suotcAed, and I think they Will agree with me
When I state t11at reduction Of rates is not
the safest road to reach an increase Of business.
The rcduced rates will be made tie standard.
AL the Insurance Agents will adopt 1t, and
tie expected increase cannot appear, because
the reduction ceases to be, from tue very mo-
ment it is brought to light. Few persons will
require to le told how long such reduction
| can continue to be secret, when they are re-
| minded that it must be made known if it Is to
| be used.
RE-AnREsTED.-Bridget Chase, the woman
lately charged with robbing several ladies ol
| their purses and contents at the Post Office
but who was discharged from custody Oh
Wednesday morning, was re-arrcsted last night
upon complaint under the statute Of " at
tempting to pick pockets.''
She was released by Justice Davis, in th'
afternoon, there being no witnesses for th
people in attendance. At q LATER hour, sh
was again placed under arrest, and gave bail il
tic sum Of $500 to appear to-day for examina
ton If not a guilty woman, the defendant

Ounce, Beck s. Saylcs OF Boston, have prepared
au annual review Of Lake Superior Mining for the
year 1861. from which we gather the following
facts, The year lust closed, from causes which
must be apparent to all has witnessed the most
extraordinary fluctuations in the prices OF lngot
Copper Of any previous season. In July the metal
was sold at II centa per pound, cash, the lowest
nrice the market has experienced since 1850, and
today holders refuse q cents per pound cash. Be-
fore the present stock pasees into the hands Of
manufacturers. the prices VIII probabl advance to
apures cxcecdine tho maximum OF ts51-whieh
was 80 cents per pound, four months. The ordi.
nary consumption Of Copper in the United States
has usually been estimated at twelve thousand
tons ner aunum Lake Superior In 1860 produced
inst one half this amount-or s1x thousand tons.
The remainder comes from Chilli. Tennessee and
Canada. The opening Of Lake navigation in Nav
last brought upon the market, ALREADY oyerstoeked
with forciru Coppcr, the product Of the previous
six months, reducing the price to the low rates
named aboye-17 cents. But this low price pro-
duced positive beneficial rcsultz-it iuansurat Il
system of economical management. so that every
manager can give closely approximate estimate
IF the cost per pound Of producing 1nsot Copper
