Items from our Country Exchanges,

The Editor of the Shawneetown
Mercury says A visit to the interior
of some fifty miles, convinces us that
in consequence of the extreme dry
weather, the corn and tobacco crops
will be light
The Mount Carmel Democrat is in
a good humor about the prospects of
that thriving place. 1t says:
We are satisfied that more improve
ments are going on in Mount Carmel
this season, than ever before. We
never had brighter future before us
than now, and the evidences of pros
perity, which are everywhere visible,
are sufficient to convince the citizens
of neighboring burghs," that there
is some life and energy yet down in
Egypt" All right-push on the car
of progress
The certainty of an early railroad
connection between Mt. Carmel and
the Evansville & Charlottesville Road,
has awakened an earnest desire on
the part of the people of Olney and
the adjoining country to have South
ern outlet towards Evansville A
meeting was recently held at the lat
ter place, when strong grounds were
taken in favor of building railroad
from Olney to Mt. Carmel, distance
of twelve miles, which is the first
Southern section in the projected
route to Nation and Chicago. The
Olney Journal says:
The Railroad from Nation to Mt.
Carmel and Evansville can be built,
and speedily open the road to Mt.
Carmel and we are on the Ohio River,
and Evansville will supply us with
goods. Every mile of this road North
is for the direct benefit of Evansville
and the K. & G. r. r. It will be to
Evansville the most important Rail-
road branch, penetrating, as it will, a
large and rich section of country that
will naturally look to Evansville as
the nearest and best market. Push
forward this enterprise, and instead
of striving % get to the North, the
North will get to us fast enough.
THE Boonville Enquirer says:
We learn from farmers and others
that the grape crop in this section of |
the country will generally be a failure,
owing to the continued dry spell from
which we are now suffering. 1t is
also sta ted that the late crops gener-
ally. will be effected thereby.

|30WE notice that the deluded colony
of Americans in Palestine, have sent
an urgent appeal to their countrymen
residents in Paris for immediate help.
They allege that hungera want and
disease will inevitably destroy them
if not promptly assisted, and1they beg
for present relief as well as for means
to assistthem to return to the United
States. We trust, they viii obtain
the limited sum needed, and we hope
that when they get back to the United

WHAT WE INSURE AGAINST.

Were the question asked, What do you
insure your property against, when taking
Il policy The answer would be-Firc
That, in part, is correct, but it is far from
the whole truth. More than half tho risl;
you insure against is rascality.
The Hartford COM'dnt gives very start
ing statement upon this point, aud its
knowledge is gained from official sources
that city being very largely interested in in.
surance companies. Half the losses sus-
tainel by the insurance companies are fraud
uient Not half the claim ,nt5 gliIty, f,r
the arson OF one man may involve losses by
dozen innoc cnt persons but the statement
is made upon the judgment Of the shrewd-
est and most experienced underwriters.
The CoWaHt says:
" WheG you pay two per cent. for fire
insurance., one pei cent. is really paid for
insurance against the iuCendlary policy
holder. When values throuS ShOut the coun.
try are rising, when business is prosper.
ous and people are everywhere accumat
ing wealth, the aggregate losses will be
small. When values are going down and
all business is at stand, aud prospects
grow gloomy, the aggregate losses increase
rapidly. Slnco the close of the war, there
has been steady downward tendency of
prices and apparent values, aud it is an as.
tounGing fact that the losses hv fire in this
country in 1866 were one hWR(rel miHi0hS
against fUrty-three milliCns IN 1868 aud an
average OF eighteen millions per annum
during the five previous years! Aud il is
the confirmed opiuiou of underwriters that
the actual losses are overpaid at least ton
per ceut--some say lwenty-hyeXnggernled
Gains. Underwriters say that 1867 thus
fur shows no material Improvement.
