Benefits of Insurance.

Nothing can impress upon the
minds of property owners the ne
cessity of insurance so forcibly as
the record of losses paid daily by In
surance Companies. By examina-
ton of the business reports of the
Home Insurance Company of Co
lumbus, Ohio, we find that they have
paid to their policy holders, since
January 1st, 1869, sixteen thousand,
four hundred and ten dollars! These
losses have occurred so generally
throughout the territory in which
they are doing business, we refer
you to the list entire in the hands OF
their Agents.
The Home Insurance Company,
doing business almost altogether in
Ohio, during the year 1868, had an
Income of ninety 1.-TWO thousand, two
hundred dollars! 2ss
The list of losses paid since, ,Janu-
Eary LIST, shows how promptly The
Company pays her policy holders
and fully demonstrates the advan
tagess of having asTpolicy i'm ths

is reported voted +, unanimously for re-
union on the basis Of the standards.
The joint committee of both the Old

urday, and although it Is understood
uovote was taken, there was general
interchange of views and perfect har-
mony. A meeting of the Joint COM
mittee was held this afternoon, and it is
understood they agreed to recommend
a reunion on the basis of the standards.
The two Presbyterian Assemblies met
together at $50 this morning, in DR..

Some enterprising individual of this de-
soripton has improved the occasion" Of the
forthcoming Inauguration Ball at Washington.
A letter has been written to Mayor Bowen,
chairman of the Committee of Invitation, ask
ing whether "any distinction on account Of
color is to be made in the sale Of tioketsp"-to
which that magnate replies that the question
Of color has never risen In the committee, and
he cannot of course decide for them, but that
so far as his individual action is concerned, he
10 willing to sell tickets to "any person Of
respectable character and standing in the
community"
Nothing can be more unimportant, per Sc,
than the attendance at this ball, and the
American people might be equally content
whether it is never held, or whether it is com
posed exclusively OF white persons or Of black
persons. But the correspondence indicates
that scheme is on foot to indirectly commit
the Republican party to the doctrine that
social equality is necessary sequence of po-
litioal equality, and to make it appear that
Republican Senators and Representa- YES,
with their wives, sons, and daughters. volun-
tarily mingle in the mazes of the waltz with
ebony beaux and bellies, in the eyes of the
whole nation, because such association is
legitimate result of their political principles.
We protest alike against any such conclusion
and against any scheme which gives the un-
scrupulous organs of the Democratic party
plausible pretext for impressing suoh ideas
upon their bigoted readers. Sensible negroes
should, for the welfare of their race, avoid
helping to frame arguments for their adj YER
saries, even il few white men, pretending to
be their friends, are foolish enough to urge
them to display their toilettes and their
terpsichorean accomplishments in the com.
pany of the magnates of the land.
Every step of Republican progress has been
won by hard fight against social rejudices,
which have no just or logical connection with
political affairs, and every movement which
tends to render the Republican party respon-
sible for the doctrines of the few miscegena-
tionists who belong to that organization gives
"aid and comfort to the Democracy, and
increases the difficulty OF securing the recog-
milton of the political rights of the colored
race.

MONDAY, FEBRUARY %, 1869.
washington's birthday.

Tag anniversary OF the birth OF washington
was ushered in, according to custom, by the
rumbIipg of cannon and the ringing of bells.
During the day the public offices and banks
ere closed, bunting is literally displayed, the
veterans Of 1912 are holding their customary
meeting and passing their usual string Oh
resolutions, some of the beneficial Societies
are parading the streets, and that Is ABOUT all
II is not that we are growing lukewarm In our
aooraoiatiop of the inestmable services rem
dared to the nation by him who was "frst in
peace, first in war, and first in the hearts OF bis
oountrymen." The name of Washington is still
held in as high reverence by the mass of the
American people as at any period in our his
tory, But we have seen, during late years, so
much OF the pomp and pageantry Of war, that
the mookery Of an army with banners has lost
The charm It formerly possessed, and a cele-
bystien of the Twenty second of February after
the fashion of a half century ago is therefore
nuite out Of the question. In this and several
other States, however, the day has recently
been made legal holiday, and thus the people
have impaired to it the highest mark Of their
gratitude.
In this city, the arrival of the anniver-
sary is associated with an unusual occurrence.
Eight years ago this day, Abraham Lincoln,
then on his way to the national capital to
assume the duties of the high Office to which
he had been elected by the people of the
United States, with his own hands raised the
flag, which treason had attempted to dishonor,
over the Hall in which the representatives of
the colonies had signed the solemn
aot declaring these colonies free and
sovereign nation. This 22d of February was
memorable day in the history of Philadel-
phis, one which her citizens will not soon for
get. On that occasion Mr.. Lincoln defined
clearly the platform on which he stood, that OF
equal and impartial justice to all men, aud
then proclaimed his readiness to yield up his
lie rather than surrender these principles,
Before he was permitted to serve out the full
time for which the people demanded his SER
vices at the head of the nation, this great
sacrifice was demanded at his hands, and now
he lives in history as the one to whom, next
to Washington the thanks of the republic are
due, and will be gratefully rendered till the
republic ceases to hold place among the
nations of the earth.
