The Importance of bill fixing a surren-
der value of Life Insurance policies is
shown by the startling fact that only about
8 per cent. of all Life Insurance policies
terminate by death the balance lapse or
are surrendered. Out of ST65, 977 $40 of life
insurance hitherto terminated, only S65,-
704, $50 was by death. This statement
must be a startling one to the great mass
of readers. 1t shows tnesource from which
the companies gain the greater part of their
revenues, and where the money comes
from to pay the large commissions and
costly rents and to keep the armies of
agents III such a tlourishing condition.
Out of every hundred who get their lives in
sused, ninety-twO surrender their policies
or allow them to lapse through inability
to make their payments. Those who sur
render their policies are at the mercy of
the companies. There is no established
rate of value. The companies are not
obliged to pay anything on n surrendred
policy. Naturally they drive the best
bargain they can with their customers, and
the greater mans necessity the more he
is crowded. OF course il j. just a. easy to
reckon the original rate of insurance.
There can be no possible objection 10 the

PARIS, June THE funeral ceremonies
to-day over the remains Of five clerical
victims of the Commune were solemn aud
impressive. Notre Dame was grandly ar

tanning the remains of the Archbishop,
surrounded by minor structures bearing
the corpses of DuguerTy Fare, Of Madelaine
Suret; Grand Vicar of Diocese Becourt,
and Sabatur. The coffin of the Archbish-
op was covered with pail black velvet, en-
broidered and enriched with massive sill

ing I'm silver candelabra, and the incense
vessels were also silver. The floor was COW
cred with black cloth, and the pulpit cover
ed with black cause, bespangicd with silver
stars. In the transcripts one hundred and
fifty feet wide, appeared huge recesses of
black drapery, which covered every statue
except those of the Virgin and child and
st. Dennis, first bishop of Paris. In the
midst of all We're the black and eharred
remains of the bishops chair; and his
throne, also half burned, with which the
Communists endeavOred to burn the Gu
thedral, was left intact as a memento of
the crime.

A COOP Moral CHARAcrER.-There is
nothing which adds SO much to the beau
ty and power of man as q good moral
character. 1t is his wcalth-his influence
his life. It 'dignifes him in every sta
ton, exalts him in every condition. and
glorifies him at every period OF life. Such
q character is more to be desired than
everything else ON earth. It makes q
man free and Independent. No servile
tool, no crouching sycophant, no treach-
erous honor-seeker, ever bore such a
character. The pure joys Of truth and
Righteousness never spring in such a per-
son. If young men but knew how much
good character would dignity and exslt
them, how glorious it would make their
prospects, even in this life, never should
we find them yielding to the groveline
and base-born purposes Of human nature
which destroy the body and soul.

p@- At a serenade given to Senator
Morton in Washington, April 8, at the
National Hotel, by the Indiana Republi-
can Association, and other resident Re
publicans, both the Indiana Senator and
Vice-President Colfax made speeches, en-
ergetically indicating President Grants
honesty, integrity and ability during his
administration, and expressed their belief
that he wonld be renominated for Presi-
lent in 1872.
In the conrse of the President
remarks, he referred to the favorite wea-
pons usedby the Democraticparty against
their opponents, and he thus facetiously
defines two of their epithets:
"Who is "carpet-bagger ?" He is a
citizen of the United States, born on our
soil, or naturalized in our Courts, who
has to settle wherever he pleases under
our fag-in North Carolina rs well as 10
Indiana, in South Carolina as well Us
Vermont. with the right to proclaim his
sentiments wherever lie lives, and what
ever his creed, color, condition or pro-
lession may be-on the housetops or by
his ballot, with none to modest or make
MIN afraid. It was for this our soldiers
bore the starry flag representing the
power of the Republic all over the South
to make the soil Of the entire Republic free
for all it's citizens. Who is "scalawag 2
He is native of the South who, whe1
the storm of civil war burst on his re-
gion, dared, despite the danger of death
imprisonment, coniscation, or exile, t.
declare that he stood by the Union, true
amo ng the falls, loyal amid treason

THE RIVER BOOMING.
WITHIN TWO INCHES OF HIGH WATER OF 1867.

1t seems there has been misappre-
hension in the minds of everybody as re-
CARDS the height of the river. 1t was
supposed. until yesterday, that there
was no possible danger, as the gauge at
the foot OF Canal street indicated diff
ference Of foot and 9-1Oths as between
the present stage of the water and the
high water of 1852. Gen. NJ. jeff Thomp-
son, Chief State Engineer, discovered
however, that the gauge was entirely in
correct. and we subjoin his letter, in re-
ference to the subject, to the City sur
veyor, as well as Mr.. Bells answer.
It will be observed, that according to
the most reliable data the water now is
within two inches of the high water mark
of 1862, and hence there is greater dan
ger than has been apprehended It is a
matter of doubt, however, whether, not
withstanding the high stage Of the river
there is as great a volume of water pass
ing down as there was in 1862, when the
gauge indicated the same height /; for the
accretions of nine years have no doubt
raised the bottom of the river consider
ably, or, in other words, rendered the
river more shallow, though in the shifting
Of the channel the depth may have beer
maintained.
