The average rate of assessments during
the past thirty-Onc years has been only
TWO AND TIIKEE-FOURTHS per cent.
The assessment for the year ending
March 81, 1871, was TWO ANp 0NE-TouRTH
per cent
IT ASKS YOUR PATRONAGE, BECAUSE
l. 1t is a HOME COMPANY; managed by
Vermont men, and insurine only in this
State:
, Insurance in it is cheaper than it can
be in any Stock CO., because it is mutual
and there are no dividends to be paid to
stockholders:
3. 1t takes but Nrce per cent. on the pre-
MUM note in advance, and assesses at the
end of each year what is necessary to meet
the losses dlready made; thus leaving your
money, so far as possible, in your own
hands, where it cannot be lost through
any mistakes or dishonesty of Directors:
4. The Company has a clear surplus over
all liabilities, and the very low average of
assessments proves that it has been hon
estly and prudently managed.

TIE st. Louis R~eB45lican says it is
thought that as the administration has
determined on the u1timatum already
presented at Geneya-that of refusing to
reeede from the -aeti0n of the Senate on
the supplemental treaty-it will be
stronger before the people by taking an
obstinate course and leave with England
the responsibility of withdrawing arbi-
ration from Geneva. On the one hand
the question is withdrawn entirely from
the view Of the people until after the
Presidential election, and on the other
it Is put before them as a conclusive ar
gument why General Grant and Secre-
tary Fish should be maintained in
authority, showing the country by such
Ingenious deception as has been prae-
ticed on other great occasions, that it
would be dangerous in case of war with
England, which the administration
would insinuate was possible, for the
government to go into other hands.

LAURA d. FAIR.
judge DWinelle Denies the Motion for a
Change Of Venue.

From the san Francisco Chronicle, still
Mrs. Fair appeared in court early yes
terday. She waslooking pale and worn,
but seemed in unusually good spirits.
She was escorted TO a seat between her
counsel, and at once entered into an an
mated conversation with Mr.. Curtis.
She wore a magnificent black silk walk
ing suit, deliberately trimmed with silk
fringe and latin piping, laid on in rows
and fastened with small satin buttons.
Her hat was a black straw, very fine,
and handsomely trimmed with jet and
spray, the whole being covered with a
black illusion veil, thrown yer the face
and caught behind with an elegant jet
pin. Black kid gloves and a pair of jet
bracelets completed her attire.
THE BOHEMIAN.
She laughed and ehatted gaily with
her counsel and toyed With her little
black fan in the easiest and most grace
f1 way. A wandering Bohemian, who.
strolled into the courtroom, and directly
in front of her, received q graceful bow
of recognition and a pleasant shake of
the hand. Pleased at the notice, the
Bohemian at once become one OF the
group. The animated conversation was
Interrupted by the voice of the Judge.
The two counsel looked piercingly at the
bench. Mrs. Fair dropped her eyes, but
her ears were strained TO catch every
word. The wandering Bohemian got
out his note book.
THE JUDGES DECISION.
"Inthe easeoft the People against Laura
d. Fair, a motion has been made to re-
move the trial of the case to another
court. The motion is supported by an
affidavit from Mrs. Fair setting forth
that in her opinion it viii be impossible
to have a fair and impartial trial in this
city because Of the hostile feeling which
she alleges has been engendered by GER
tain newspaper articles andother causes.
There is, IN the opinion of the court, no
proof outside of Mrs. Fairs affidavit
that her fears are well grounded.
'"Fhe motion for a change OF venue
must, therefore, be denied. l regret this
all the more from the fact that the trial
must take place in this court. l would
gladly b. relieyed of the duty it imposes
upon me. But the motion must be de-
MED. The trial Is set for the twenty
fourth instant, and the clerk viii issue q
venire for two hundred jurors. The pris-
viii be remanded into the custody
of the Sheriff"
During the delivery of the opinion
flush spread itself ver Mrs. Fairs face,
but she gave nO other sign Of disappolnt-
ment. After a moments consultation
with her counsel, the DeputysSherif es-
corted her back to her dreary home.

There are many points, however, to be
considered IN favor Of the broad-gauge
ysten, bat they apply solely 20 great
trunk lines, and particularly to the
passenger-carrying part Of the traffic
It may be impossible to obtain the com
fort, roominess and elegance in narrow
gauge passenger coaches attainabIe in
those Of the broad-gauge. Stock cars of.
the broad-gauge are undoubtedly supe-
nor to those Of the narrow-gauge where
cattle have to be carried long distances
in them. As for box cars for carrying
the generality of freight there a be
but little difference, except in capacity,
between the cars of the respective
gauges. But our argument in favor of
narrow gauges must be taken as refer
ring to the construction and operation
Of feeders to trunk lines, such as the
road between Memphis and Kansas
City. We believe that the superior
cheapness Of construction and advan-
of operation which pertain to the
narrow-gauge system, will far more than
compensate for the inconvenience and
cost Of breaking bulk Of freights at the
of trans-shipment from the
narrow-gauge feeders to the broad-gauge
trunk lines.
