DURING the year Just closing the fire In
suranee business has not been a. prosperous
as In previous year,. The premium receipts
have been larger, but the 1res have been
unusually destructive. The nine great com
panios Of Hartford, Connecticut, have all
declared dividends, however, this year, and
have added handsome sums to their assets
during the year. The Putnam, which WAS
the only company In that city that In 1858
declared no dividend, owing 10 its serious
losses BY the Portland are, has divided eight
per cent, or 10000, this year. The EtnA
Jumps from e480, 900 In dividends last year
10 5000, 900 this year, and adds about t400,-
900 TO Its assets. The Hartford makes an
increase Of 5000 In bensnts to stockhold-
ers, and this Phoenix adds s1s, 900, and piles
about ti40, 900 on TO Its surplus. The Mer-
chants makes handsome exhibit, having
Increased Its assets over $l0O, 200, and
Jumped from yearly dividend sftweive per
cent. to one Of eighteen. The total receipts
Of these for the ten months, closing Noyem-
Dor l, were e6,9i6, 467. The total receipts in
1868 were about $4,000, 900, sum which
will be exceeded this year 1t is thought.

GNA.-Judge Underwood, of the United
States District Court Of Virginia, has dis
posed of over 1000 cases In two years, $500
of which were cases in bankruptcy. A large

the Baltimore banks, and his fees in the set
Element OF these cases amounted TO $50, 900.
Some OF these Virginia banks have paid par
for their notes, others as high as 90 per
cent, aud none less than 20 cents on the
dollar. Mr.. johnson has been thoroughly
reconstructed, has set a noble example In
aequIesciug in the situation, and Is ardently
engaged in seconding the work Of recon

Selecting Cows.

A Vermont stock raiser gives the
following rules for selecting cows:
First, | get a brOadside view Of the
animal. at the distance of almost two
rods, as | have noticed for years that
there was great similarity in the
general proportion of all first class
milk,rs, being very small in girth
just back of their forward legs, as
compared with their girth just for,
ward of their hips. have never
known first rate mixer, of any
breed, not thus proportional so
that if this form is wanting in an
animal | have recommended to me,
| do not care to look at her more,
unless | want to breed for some
other purpose than the dairy.
For breeding oxen | should want
COW of reverse proportions, c.,
larger girth forward. | next feel
the size Of the milk veins. and trace
them to their entrance into the chest,
which in superior cows, are large,
admitting the ball of the large fin.
ger; If divided or subdivided, as is
sometimes the case, | judge OF the
size of each OIlfice, as careless for
the size of the vein itself than the
oriiice. Next, examine by sight or
touch the udder or bag, which must
be cdpacious in order to hold much
milk, with teats wide apart and free
from large seed warts or sores Of any
kind. | then inquire how long she
goes dry before calving, as | don't
want family COW to give milk less
than forty six weeks out of every
fifty.two; also as to the quality of
the milk and, to close, | milk her
with my own hands.
