We learn these points of information
from . New York special: - q +" -
g. ". Miller, superintendent Of insur-
a1ce, has made . report. vhieh Gays: Tho
Chicago hrs has Withdrawn OF. ab-
sofbed over twenty million dollars of in
euraace capital from this State alone, 1t
the Same time it has produced m immediate
advance In the rates demanded BY al COM
psnies in condition to continue business,
and win undoubtedly lead to combined
effort to sustain the advanced rates."
Unless very extraordinary fires occur,
there 10 every reason to believe that these
increased rates win make the business Of
tire insurance once moro profitable, 10 -
induce the Investment Of even . greater
amount Of capital than ever before.
The companies will unquestionably be
managed with more care than hitherto in
many respects. The Chicago disaster will
also stimulate the organization Of larger
companies, with larger capital, rather than
= large number Of companies with smaller
capital.
There IL every reason to believe that NO
other New York companies than those
which have already failed will suspend in
consequence Of the recent fire, and in cases
where there IL any impairment Of capital,
there is every prospect that it viii be made
good before the first Of January. n
The following New York companies have
ceased to do business, and gone into LOUD
dation: Etna, Astors, Atlantic, Beekman,
Excelsior, Fulton, Irving, Lamar, Lorillard,
Manhattan, Market, North America, Sc
curity, Washington, Albany City, Capital,
Buffalo City, Buffalo Fire Insurance,
Western, Y0nkers, New York.
A pamphlet, which will be issued from
the Office of the Insurance Spectator, gives
. statement Of the effect of the fire in other
States. Of the three hundred and thirty
five American companies doing q fire in
surance business in the United States, two
hundred and forty nine experienced losses
moro or less severe, while of tho six Eng
ish companies but one escaped loss ct
Chicago. The American companies show
m aggregate loss of 482,62l, f0 and the |
Eugiish companies of 81, 81, 600; 80 that the |
total insurance covered by this great con-
hagration may be summed up in round |
numbers ct 81, OOO, 600.
OF the two hundred and fifty-four COM
panies affected by the disaster, 6fty-seven !
suspended, and twenty eight of the remain |
der have already taken measures toward |
the filing up of their respective deficiencies.
Illinois hes suffered most severely, no |
less than fourteen of her twenty companies
having already stopped. Connecticut loses l
seven Of her eleven companies, and Rhode
Island five out of nine.

We approach him; soon We zee by his restless eye

DEEP FALL PLOwING.-We clip the following
from Morton's Edrmes' Calendar: "In Holland
the first operation on the stubbles is as deep fur
row given with pillow as can be done with hor-
ses. Ten to twelve inches of the alluval soil are
thus turned over: and if the weather permits, a
cross-plowing of less depth is given before winter
In the neighborhood Of Edinburg nothing strikes
in winter than the great depth of the blowing
which has been given to the land since harvest.
And in instances nearer home, where the practice
has been transplanted adopted further south,
the same advantage seems to follow a deep autumn
nal blowing. In the fen districts large, deep
working pillow has been introduced by Mr.. How
ard which seems to be most influential on the
fertility of the land. The bringing up of a por-
ton of the clay subsoil to be weathered during
winter, when it becomes mixed with vegetable
mould of the surface, is found to be most benefi-
cial.

RcDOy1nR RDeks.

On many farms there are large rocks both un-
slightly and troublesome. Where too heavy fol
handling, blasting with powder or bursting by
water in winter, are common means used, but q
writer in the AmericaR Farm Journal, gives anOth-
and safer method. He says:
"If the rock is buried in the ground, dig around
it so as to expose the greater part of it, then
build a wood IRE around and over it, so as to
heat it hot. The expansion caused by the heat
usually causes the rock to burst in small pieces,
but if it does not, draw the fre-brantls quickly
from the top and dash on pail or two of cold
water. This seldom if ever fails, as the sudden
contraction of the outer surface it to break
saw one broken in this way, which contained
three wagon-loads few trials will show about
the amount of fire it requires."

A correspondent of the Grand Army Journal
tells this story:
In the fall of 1862, our regiment (the -th Ohio
vOlunteers) were "circling around" thor eh
Maryland, and the orders were very strict against
foraging. Consequently, the boys, who 1osld
forage anyway, were often put to their wits TO
get the "necessaries" into camp without detec-
ton. One afternoon the band went out, as usual,
to practice in the woods near the camp. A nice,
fat shOat, in his perambulatiOns after acorns and
other "shack, wandered near where the boys
were playing. The temptation was too strong.
The fife and drum were hushed and well -dircc-
ted shot from Dicks "navyn laid porky low, and
he was soon dressed and ready for transportation.
1t was now nearly time for dress parade, and how
to get the animal into camp was the question
Suddenly an idea struck Dick, our fife major, and
was soon pnt into execution.
The bass drum was uncorded, and the carcass
deposited therein. The head was replaced and
the band took up the line of march for camp.
The regiment was just forming for dress parade
ground. Soon came the order, " Troops beat oGr'
and up to the line went the band, C., our bass
drummer, looking rather white around the gils,
but nary heat from the big drum. When opposite
the Colonel, who was beginning to look livid at
the eccentric movements of the band. the order
came, Mxsic HAIR (toG|) "why in HI
don't you beat that drum, sirf" C., thinking
the boldest way the safest, stepped up in front Of
the Colonel, and whispered, "COlonel, we've got
a pig in that drum" Quick as lightning came the
reply, roaring along the line, +" Sick, are you!
Then why in HI don't you 60 to your quarterss
Be off! Mssic forrard march ~ 1t is needless to
add that the Colonel got porksteak for supper.
