We commend to our friends in and out of
Congress calm Indifference upon the
whole subject. Try their hands at what
they may. there isn't much probability of
their being able 70 do much toward restor-
ing or guarding the thousand times broken
Constitution during the rule of the party
now in power. The first effective blow in
behalf of the Constitution must be aimed
directly at the overthrow of that party In
that blow, lot the nations strength be con-
oentered.

Mr.. EDITOR: A correspondent, over the
imposing signature of "Honest," takes ex-
ception to the report in Council of the
Committee on Aims House, in the case of
Miss Mary Lyons, and wishes to know in
what particular manner she was u terror to
many of the inmates. Now it is not
thought necessary, or proper. to crafty
this curiosity OF your correspondent, the
more especially rs he processes to be ac-
quainted with the lady, and is also aware, 1

PEELED this devoted Christian woman" to
take refuge in the Aims House, while the
houses of so many friends and acquaint-
ances were doubtless, or should have been,
open to her. The committee dealt as ten
derly with this subject as was practicable,
consistently with their duty to the public
and to other unfortunate inmates of the in
stltntion, who are equally entitled to their
care and protection; but if your cores
pondent is 'honest" in his wishes to have
the details of the evidence on which they
based their action, however reluctantly, they

The great Life Insurance Company of the
United States ls the National, of which jaw
Cooke Il Co. are the General Agents, Wash
ington. Compared with other big compa-
nles, it is destined soon to be the BIGGEST
company in the country. Why? Because
its growth and popularity, measured in its
infancy, warrants it. They have issued, in
cling sum insured of upwards of $I8.OOO,-
600, and the applications daily increasing.
Another reason is, that the plan of the Ma
tional is the correct one, the cheapest one,
the most liberal one; secures the largest
amount foi the sum paid; no fictitious or
distant dividends declared to dazzle the i'm
agination with its glittering promises but
gives you cash dividend in hand before
you start. How? A young clerk, age
twenty, pays $12.95 n year, and secures
policy in the National for 81, O00 In other
companies he pays $19.89-a difference of
S. 94, or cash dividend OF over ffty-two
per cent. This difference will enable him
to take out policy for $500 more; SO that,
should he die, his family secures $1,000,
and pay no more premium than other COM
panies charge for $1,000. This don't look
like, what is supposed by some to be the
case, that the company divide all the profits
among themselves. Why, the fact is, they
give you dividend before it is due-in ad-
vance-and no contingent operation of ma
king profit is dependent upon it. Insure
in the National. Call and get circulars

that many persons went to church who

of time honored Gust m, while other
go for the purpose OF seeing and being
