We refer our readers this morning with much
pleasure to the third annual statement of the Ger.
mania Insurance Company of New Orleans.
This institution has long been regarded by our
mercantile community as one of the most SUBJ
stsntial and reliable among Us, and being con-
ducted by officers who are peculiarly adapted for
dischareing its responsible duties, its progress
has been marked by the most judicious manage
ment, while the promptitude displayed in the sd.
jusiment Of all claims has rendered It one OF the
most popular Of our local companies.
As regards its success We have only to advise Q
careful perussl of its disbursements and assets,
from which will be perceived that a net profit of
$50 eco has been realized since the publication Of
lis statement in 1868. The board Of directors also
at their last meeting resolved that dividend OF
$40 per share be declared credited to the unpaid
stock notes.

gives the details of horrible murder which oc-
CURED on the 9TH. in 0akdale township, ten miles
from the city. A farmer named James b. Gray,
well known In that section. in fit of insanity
killed his wife and four children, the latter conss
ting Of two boys, eyed eighteen and eight, and
two girls aged five and three years. The muir
deIer was about forty years old, large aud pow
erfully built man, and has many relatives in the
neighborhood. He has lately been suffering from
deafness, and grew insane over 1t. The deed was
committed about daylight. The neighbors heard
Mrs. Grsy's screams, and going to the house,
found the wife and four children cut TO pieces
with ak and the murderer endeavoring to hang
himself. He was arrested aud lodged in the st.
Paul jail. where 1t required three or four men to
hold him. In answer 20 inquiries he would only
reply: 81 killed them all with an Ok. OIL

The wife was murdered first, being cut in the
head and stabbed several times. The children
were then murdered and placed In q row on the
floor. their threats 40 badly cut as to nearly sever
the heads from the body. The murderer had eyi.

were seven wounds on her body, through one Of
which the intestines protruded. Her throat was
cut from ear to ear. The sight was one Of the
most revolving ever witnessed. One of the chill.
dTens breasts was SO laid open with an ak that
the lungs and organs were distinctly visible. The
wife had on only her Dight-dress, rough coat
of her husband, and pair of coarse shoes. The
bodies Of the children were covered by bed.

of maniacal fury, made a statement detailing the
particulars of the murder. He says hls motive
was that be feared he was coming TO poverty, and
the family would be left destitute and he thought
it would be better to send them 70 Heaven at
once.
