co. OF NEW YORK, had ASSETS tan cashl
laa ,ss-s ~, 3 S12,445,264 90
The Benefit Co. had (gross assets) 7,134,79O 90

being in Premium Notes, with outstanding liabl-
iy on Policies in force of s55os7 1854 co. nearly as
large as that OF the MUTUAL LIFE Co. ',N
The expenses ofthe Benefit Co. in 1864 were,
s271, 1857 90
while its Cash receipts were only $1,715,s75 90
Nfhe Cash Receipts Of the MssSaI Life Co. being
IS ,4sa 4rBaol9 .-7s s.s.a s2,828,s01 90
and its expenses only $3.50, 1o5 90
Any Life Co. which does not incease its assets in
the same ratio as it Liability, caos be considered
the SAFEST. + 5li-g s8;t5s ..t'fbs oisdR
The Benefit Co. is not the Cheapest for the reason
that IT'S Rates are higher, and the Dividsnds much
less. "a b ,sr.--.tf {, .,,..s = fnR
For instance at the age Of 49, for $1,000 on the 10
year plan, with the Benefit Co. it will cost s57 81
while with the Mutual Life Co. only s51 81
being So 20 Tess, with the same difference Of Rate as
to other ages. 45A a94fa Hfasia iat4
The Dividends of the MUTUAL LIFE CO. have
been more than Seventy per cent on the Premiums
paid while those OF the Benefit Co. have never been
more than 50 ger cent The Policies OF the Mutual
Life Co. are constantly decreasing in amount and
ALWAYS have a CIsh value on surrender IVb;Le
those Of the Benefit Co. do not increase and have no
such value unless the premiums paid up In cash.

HE MAKES A CONFESSION.

Alter being taken to the lookup, he con-
fessed to the City Marshal that he set both
fres,-the one on Franklin Street, and the one
on Federal Strickland that he did it out of
revenge, MI. Williams having refused to settle
with him, as he desired, for damage to his
wagon. he shows no penitence for the of
fence, and viii have to serve the State for
long term at Thomaston.
1t is supposed that he is the one who set the
fire at Augusta on Sunday. He was there,
and had had, as we are informed, some diff
Guilty with the authorities there. He returned
to this city Monday. Whether he committed
the deed at Augusta, or not, it is sure thing
against him here, and he viii suffer the penal
ties of the law.
The celebrity with which this arrest was
made deserves credit. The fire occurred be-
tween two and three o'clock in the morning,
and, before twelve hours had elapsed, Deputy
Marshal Wentworth had the incendiary in his
clutches. Due credit must aslo be given the
woman who observed the fellow firing his in
cendiary pile in Franklin Street, and who
watched him SO closely. After the pile was
lighted she ran out and extinguished it with a
bucket of water, but not before she had, by
the light of the blaze, taken suce view of the
iend that she could give description of him
by which he could be recognized.
