A CARD =

A Ii MEN OF EDUCATION and reflection
II should ponder well upon the advantages of
Lite Insurance, and should promulgatc their ac-
quired knowledge throughout the whole circle OF
their acquaintance. They should remember that
it recommends itself in many instances, not mere
ly as a measure of eXpcdiency, but as a bounden
duty a duty easily discharged by the payment OF
a moderate sum. The question is: shall the mar
ried trust the comfort OF his family to Il
chance ?-albeit promising one; or Is he MT
rather bound to make of provision as far
as e can, for his wife, his children, his helpless
relations, for all those dependant upon him for
support, Ind through the medium of Life lnsu-
rance, assure an adequate provision again: inn
pending poverty and irrctrievable distress? g? How
many men have heard say: eyes, but want to
insure for large sum when do insure, and it is
not convenient now" And so, because the man
cannot crafty his vanity and pay the premium on
$50, 900, he dies, and leaves his wife and child
hou elesS, sOrrOw-stricken and broken hearted,
thrust on the cold kindness of quasi charitable
relations, without a cent to bury him or provide
loving and devoted husband, would not make
even temporary provision, consonant with his
circumstances, for the wife who had been hi
nurse in sickness his friend in distress, and whom
he had sworn to cherish and protect, and by the
payment of S75 or 500, secure many thousands
Strange that man, who owes to his wife the chict
chain of his existence, the every day comfort OF
his life should be able to look heartlessly to that
period when their last parting shall take place.
when removed to that world, where to him, all is
hope and consolation, he shall have wilfully left
in darkness and dcsOlation, stepped in poverty
and wretchedness, to struggle with the hard JUS
tice of hard hearted world. Resorting to Life
Insurance is risking nothing but truly securing a
certain profit upon that which Is, at all tunes, an
uncertain event.
The general Agent of the Aetna has the gratif-
cation to state that quite large number of sober
minded men in this community have availed them
selves of this opportunity. All are invited to
inform themselves by applying to the subscriber.

its peculiar aspect, and may serve for
points of departure.
The phases the earth presents to the
moon will, in the same manner, serve
as an almanac, and we may believe they
form its chieffoundation. These phases
are complimentary to those which the
moon presents to us; when 1T is III fuU
moon to us, it is neao earth for the Sc
lenites; and when they give us a new
moon, we offer them full earth. No re-
ciprocity can be more perfect and con-
slant.
But the phases of the earth differ es-
sentially from those of the moon, mas
much as their intensity, not their mag
nitude, changes perpetually. This phe-
nomenon is very terrestrial, and my
be sure the Selenites have judged us by
it long ago. Whilst with them all is
calm, identical, constant; with us every
thing changes. Besides the different
lustre of different parts of the terrestri-
al spheres-green continents, blue seas,
yellow deserts, white poles, and grey
lands-our atmosphere is in perpetual
commotion. One day it is covered with
clouds, and transmits to the moon
uniform white light; the day after it is
of limpid transparency, and allows the
solar light to fall upon absorbent green
surfaces. All of sudden it will be
varied with fiecculent mountains and
varied mosaics. Thus the light the
Selenites receive from the earth-the
light which we call "ashy," and which
we only perceive in the moons early
days-varies continually in intensity.
This mobility, this perpetual variation
in the aspect of the earth, will have
made the Selentians believe that the
earth is uninhabited. But on what
grounds would they form opinions un-
favorable to It's habitability They
live on solid and stable sphere, and
can see nothing like it on earth. Can
any rational creature live upon that per-
manent atmospheric layer which covers
all the earth? A Selenites who fell
into it would be drowned. Can it be
on that sheet of green that washes the
greater portion of the earth ? Can it
be on those clouds that appear and dis
appear hundred times a day? And
then the earth turns with such velocity,
it is subject to so much elemental insta-
bility! Moreover, can We believe that
its Inhabitants are people without
weight, preserving, no one knows how,
a mean position between the fixed and
mobile clements ? How can such exis-
tences be believed Cosmos.

INFIDELTTY OF WIEE-She Is Caught in
Flagrante Delictu By her Husband, aoho At
tempts to Kill her Paramour-On Monday
evening, about seven o'clock, there was
scene at a house in Frank street, in Roches-
ter, which created considerable excitement.
man named Michael Burns-who is hard
working, industrious fellow, blacksmith by
trade-has for some time suspected his wife
of being unfaithful to her marriage VOWS,
and he awaited occular proof. Burns is in
the habit of working evenings, and on Mon
day his wife went where he was employed
and asked him if he intended coming home
to supper, which was not his custom when
he worked evenings He told his wife he
would not be home, and she departed. Burns,
however, did go home about seven O'Clock,
and in front of his house, On the sidewalk,
was his little daughter, five years of age, who
informed him that man named Frank Quin
Ga fellow who had been in the army and was
a ht6itue of the police courD was in a room
with her mother. To the room the father
proceeded, quietly taking with him an ak
standing in the doorway He saw sufficient
and rushed into the room, striking with the
AK at her paramour. The weapon slipped
from his grasp, and he instantly caught up
from table standing near a case knife, with
which he made several lunges at Quin. Burns
says neither of the blows took effect, but
the outside report is that the blade of
the knife entered Quin's shoulder near the
neck, producing quite wound. Quin then
fed Burns upbraided his wife in the strong
est terms, and told her to leave him and
make her way through the world the best
way she could. The little girl was taken by
her father to the orphan asylum, where he
made provision for her support, and then he
went to his workshop and spent the entire
night in great yexation of spirit.

THE PRISONERS AT THE DRY ToRTUGAs-
A letter received from the Dry Tortugas, on
the Florida coast, dated the 25th of the last
month, states that Edward Spangler and
Arnold and OLaughin have been all that
could be desired as regards correct deport-
ment since their incarceration. Spangler has
earnestly and industriously labored in the
carpenter shop; has never been subject to
or twice indisposed and under treatment in
the hospital, has in each instance returned to
duty before required by regular discharge
He is well, and manifests desire to serve
out his sentence with patience. They are all
we'll cared for, and are represented to be
more comfortable and enjoying better health,
probably, than if confined in an ordinary
penitentiary. Irons were put upon all the
State prisoners, fourin number, solely on ac-
count of the attempt made by Mudd to es-
cape. The irons have now been removed,
and all liberty consistent with proper prison
discipline is allowed them
