yollow fever is as sure to sap the springs Of lfe

ordinary symptoms, and they should be promptly

THE BANKRUPT ACT.

The bankrupt act has been changed
by Congress, by the adoption of the
following amendment "Be it enacted
by the Senate and House Of Represen.
tatives Of the United States Of America,
in Congress assembled, That the pro-
visions of tho secend clause of the
thirty third section of an Act to estnh.
lsh a uniform system of Bankruptcy
throughout the United States, as amend
cd by the first section of an act in
amendment thereof, shall not apply to
those debts from which the bankrupt
seeks q discharge, which were con.
tractcd prior to the 1st of January,
1862"
Previous to this amendment, no per-
son whose estate would not pay 6fty
per cent. of his indebtedness, exclusive
Of his debts as surety, could, without the
consent of majority of his creditors,
avail himself of the bankrupt act. The
effect of this amendment is to make the
fifty per cent. clause apply only to debts
contracted after the 1st of January, 1869.
Under the law as it now stands, any
person can apply for release from all
bis old debts, whether his estate pays
anything or not. lie is only required
topay fifty per cent. of such of his
individual debts as were contracted SUBJ
sequent to January 1st, 1869.

DEATH OF mas. THOMAS FIONA.
CHAN. ~,
An unusually large assemblage Of
our citizens, Of every class, faith, COL
or and party, we're assembled at the
Catholic Church at this place, on Sat-
urday last, to join in paying respect to
the character and remains Of Mr.. THoM.
AS MONAGHAN, who breathed his last
the day previous. We we're impressed
with the idea that alI distinctions and
differences of sentiment, thought, action
and faith, are and should be, laid aside
in the presence Of the Great King of
Terrors-when We come to surround the
grave.
A noticeable feature was the large
number of colored people in attendance.
Mr. MONAGHAN was among the most
upright, quiet, retiring aud inoffensive
Of our citizens, and hence was respected
by all classes. His energy and industry
and devotion to his business, were
marked, and these yielded for him an
honest livelihood for his family during
all the times Of hardship and trial
through which the country has passed.
The sympathies Of the entire commu-
nifty arc with his afli cted family.

Tho Handwriting OF Great Men.

The Duke of Wellington's writing was
large and forcible, with no attempt at deco.
ration During the last ten years of his life,
however, his writing was indifferent, and Of
ten illegible. Mono but compostor in a
newspaper ollicc, accustomed to all sorts of
hicroglyphics, could possibly dociphor the
characters. A letter of his toa miuister in
Lord Derby's Cabinet has not to this day
been unravcled. Nine out of every ten Of
the Dukes letters treasured by autograph
huntors were written by his Secretary, Mr..
Grovillc, who who wrote hand very much
like that of the Duke in his best days.
Lord Brougham's hand betrayed much
unconqucrable restlcssness of impulse. His
manuscript wasa mass of hicroglyphcs; and,
according to DR.. Belkuap, in all Mr.. Cloves
extensive printing establishment in London,
there was only one man competent to grapplo
with it, and he often gave up in despair
The Royal family Of England have gcner-
ally written good, clear and free hands
William w. wrote remarkable plain and
lcgible hand, and that of his brother George
was showy and fluent. Queen Victoria has
an elegant signature.
Locke says the fastor man writes, the
slower others read what he has written. Ma
polcon could write fourteen pages minute
unfortunately, however, each page consisted
of eight blots and splattcr. Some of his
lines to Maria Louisa appear as if scattered
over the paper by the explosion of bomb
shell.
Horace Grcelcys manuscript is very illc.
slblo. wag once observed that the sen.
tcncc "Firtue is its own reward" written by
Mr. Greedy, was rendered by the compostor
into washing with soapis Wholly absurd"

REASON WHY EVERY ONE SHOULD
INSURE IN THE EQUALITY LIFE
INSURACE COMPANY OF VIRGINIA.
lst. 1t is more Liberal to the Insurers than
any other company, and will eventually become
purely mutual and belong to the Insurers.
III. 1t circulatcs its money amongst it's pa-
irons, whoure the Insurers. Consequently they
arc continually getting tho benefit of tho rapid
accumulations of the Company, tho money be-
ing invested by the Board of Directors amongst
the insurers Therefore the insurers arc build.
ing up an institution peculiarly their own, and
| conducted for their benefit
Sd. The loans of this Company are as liberal
as other companies, who declare dvidcndsat
the end of the second. third and fourth years,
but this Company at the end Of the first and
every year. Thereby the insurer saves several
years interest on his loans by nsurDe in this
Company. and he never looscs his money if ho
pays up for one whole, year, whereas in other
companies, he has to remain an insurer for
several years, or he looscs MI the money he
has paid

And the babbling brook is laughing
While the willows Ger it weep.

All through tho liyc.long day;
And tho butterflies arc dancing
Their happy lives away.

For my eyes are closed to weep
But my heart is looking hcavenward,

While OH II is reflected
The impress of the true.
Fain would with tho lilies
Lay me down and sweetly sleep;
