YlHIS Society, which confines its bust
A ness exclusively to assuring the lives
of persons resident in The West Indies,
presents advantages such as no other As
surance Company, labouring in The same
field, can offer. It's scale of Premiums,
although considerably lower Than that OF
any other Company, has nevertheless been
found quite adequate 10 provide for the
risk of life in the West Indies, and sufi-
Gent TO create large surpluses, out OF
which ReverSionary Bonuses, averaging
D per cent per annum upon the amour
assured have been distributed among Il e
Members of the Society.
Its career, during a period Of 80 years,
has clearly demonstrated the fact that the
lives of persons residing in this part OF
the world, are, when carefully selected,
almost as valuable as those inhabiting
Europe, and that they do not demand
such excessive Premiums as are charged
by every other Company.
The following abridged Table shows

TEST OF BAD MEAT.

DR.. LETHEBY, who has had great expe-
rience during several years in the City of
London, describes the following as the
characters of good meat 1t is neither Of
a pale pink colour nor Of a deep purple
tint for the former is a sign of disease,
and the latter indicates that the animal
has not been slaughtered, but has died
with the blood in it, or has suffered from
acute fever. 1t has a marble appearance,
from the ramifications Of little veins of fat
among the muscles. 1t should be firm
and elastic to the touch, and should
scarcely moisten the fngers-bad meat
being wet, and soddcn, and fabhy, with
the fat looking like Jelly or wet parch-
ment. 1t should have little or no odour,
and the odour should not be disagreeabIe;
for diseased meat has a sickIy, cadaverouS
smell, and sometimes a smell OF physlc.
This is very discoverabIe when the meat
is chopped up and drenched with warm
water. 1t should not shrink or waste
much in cooking. 1t should not run to
water or become very wet on standing for
a day or so, but should, on the contrary, dry
upon the surface. When dried at a tenn

should not lose more than from %seaventy-
four per cent. Of it's weight, whereas bad
meat will often lose as much as eighty
per cent. Other properties Of a more re-
fined character will also serve for the re-
cognition of bad meat, as that the Juice OF
the flesh is alkaline or neutral to test
paper, instead of being distinctly acid
and the muscular fibre, when examined
under the microscope, is found to be sod
den and ill-defined.

cularly of husbands! There, you nave
been and had your life insured, while your
poor wife may 60 without any insurance

HAPPY JACK.
Murder of one of General
FORESTS "Orderlies."

Shortly after twelve O'Clock
yesterday, a terrible tragedy
was enacted at the corner Of
Market and Lafayette streets,
in this city, which resulted in
the death Of a young man nam
ed John Hodges, better known
as one Of General Forrest s or
derlies during the war, and
who went by the soubriquet of
Happy Jack The facts, as
detailed to us by eye witness
SOS, are about as follows:
Wiley Taylor aud Hodges
were standing on the pave
ment, near Ganter's store, en-
gagged in a loud and angry
quarrel, which was brought on
by insulting language used by
Hodges toward Taylor. Hold.
ges was drunk, and had just
attempted to shoot Taylor, who
only saved his life by thrusting
forth his hand and interposing
his thumb between the ham
mer and tube of the pistol
Taylor wrenched the pistol
from Hodges grasp, and told
him to go off, that he did not
want to hurt him. But
Hodges became more boisterous
and furious after being disarm-
ed, and began to curse Taylor
in a loud voce. A young man
named John Pryor, in the en-
ploy of Mr.. Goodell as wagon
driver, happened to be driving
his wagon near the scene OF
the difficulty, and hearing
Hodges violent language,
jumped from his wagon, and
walked deliberately up to where
Hodges sood, drew a revolver
and shot him through the head
inflicted wound that OCCASION
ed death in a few hours.
Pryor had never seen the mur
dered man before, and gave as
his reason for killing him that
he thought Taylor's life was
in danger:

'Who told you that? If l had

ger. yet she died loving you.

Richard. 'But the dead never

tiful than when he wooed her
in her girlhood, and with a
shining halo round her head,
his wife herself, land no other. -
He could not speak.
She looked upon him with a
gentle smile.
sThey said you would not en-
terrain me; but l made you,'
she said, softly; Il knew you
better than they. Promise me,
before leave you, to do just

will use it for the poor said

bye
The clock struck twelve as
she spoke; he saw her fade, as
the rainbow fades from the
skies. He strove to clutch her
robe, but it eluded his grasp,
and he fell fainting to the floor.
From that hour Richard Rock
Was "a changed man. His gifts
to the poor were countless, and
the will he made full of wise
and charitable requests. The
houseless learnt that under his
roof they might find food and
rest.
He died, as the spirit had
foretold, a year from the night
of its visitation, and on his
