known as the exemplars of mercy; who does
not wish to know all that can be known of
such men? And of such are those whose biog-
raphies are comprised in this elegant volume.
Carefully written biographies these are, too !;

The AsBURY.-There are few of our readers
who have not heard of this great Life Insur-
ance enterprise and of its astonishing success
Few undertakings of the kind have been Or
ganized so thoroughly, quickly and successful
ly. OF all the various life companies in this
country, more than one hundred in number,
there are, we are credibly informed, but tDo
which have issued as many policies in the first
half year of their existence. Progress so great
as this in the face of vigorous competition, is
at once creditable to the Officers and Directors
and gratifying to the friends of the enterprise
Its success is doubtless owing in great
measure to the we'll known character and
standing of its Board of Officers and Direc-
tors, all of whom are personally interested in
its stock. They are known all over the coun-
try as men ,oho can be trusted. We would call
the attention of our readers to the plan of divi-
dends 1.-THE partnership plan) which is original
with this Company, and pronounced by some
of our best financiers as the best and most sat
isfactory of any plan that has yet been adopted.
The General Agent of this State, Geo. L. Kim
ball, Esq, is gentleman we'll known in this
community, and needs no recommendation.
Its board of local reference Gas will be seen by
reference to our advertising columns) is COM
posed of some of our best and most prominent
citizens.
We can say of all the parties connected with
this Company they are gentlemen who would
not allow their names to be used in connection
with any enterprise unless it was conducted
upon the strictest principles of integrity and
iustica IN all concarnad and xua haanoaL for
the Company the liberal patronage it deserves.
Starting thus favorably in this vicinity, with
such prestige abroad and with such success
already achieved, we cannot doubt that the
"Asbury" will, to quote from the Insurance
Monitor, "arove one of the greatest successes
achieved in Life Insurance" d&w1t

DEAR Sm:-In your paper of last week you
or one of your correspondents say that DR..
Drake is not the originator of the celebrated
Plantation Bitters, and that they were manu-
featured and sold by one Pedro Martelle, an old
Spaniard, in the Island of st. Thomas, over
forty years ago, as every old sea captain can
testify. Now, sir, can certify to the above as
being true. for have followed the sea for over
forty years, most of the time doing business
with the West Indies. These same Bitters.
differently put up and named, were brought
to my notice on my first trip to the Island of
ST. Croix for a cargo of rum, and for years and
years after my ships stores were never without
them. always supplied my family and many
of my neighbors with them and can truly say
better Bitters and Tonic is not made in all
the world. Yours, truly,

KNOX COUNTY.

The Rockland Gazette says in grading the
ground for the Knox and Lincoln railroad, in
ThomastOn, a little west OF the State Prison,
skeleton was exhumed, and is supposed to be
that of white man, buried there, as from ap-
pearances it seemed to have been encased in q
coffin. This was undoubtedly the remains of
a man by the name of Bali or Bran, who was
in August, 1880, convicted and condemned as
a spy by military court marshal, and hung
by order of Gen. Wardsworth, the gallows be-
ing pine tree standing on what was then
called Limestone Hill, and was buried near
the spot of his execution, and in the near To-
cality of where the bones were dug up.
