after listening, some time to Bills, story,
said "Now look ehere, old man; i can

then went to another car forget nd Of the
boy, who was boo'hsoidS alta terrible rate
about that watch being given to himshv
his diving father, and he musthape it back
again or he could never face his dear old
mother again. The minister pqci6ed him,
and SO far gained his confidence that he
explained how he had; made q mistake,
and if he just had. some more money hs
would win the watch baqk.; He explain,
cd so perfectly to the minister, that the
latter told him he had some gold and
would risk it if the boy would do the bet
ting. The young innocent agreed, and
went into another car after Canada Bib

was plain, honest farmer, and not a
gambler But. the preacher showed him
how unjust it was not to give the, boy a
chance for his watch, and Bill consented
Soon two hundred and fifty dollars of the
minister's gold was gone. Papio, shouted
the brakeman and Bill threw down the.
"keerds" and told his antagonists that he
lived there and must get off and go

this that he was determined to get off
there too and follow the old farmer home
and get that watch back.

THE LAND ALREADY GIVEN AWAY

WASHINGTON. March II, 1872.
"Business," said O wcll-known operator In the
House lobby this morning. has been terribly dull
these two years past. The NEW YORK HERALD
bursts up everything that has any money in It, I
we could only tx that paper something handsome
could be done this very session."
This is the general belief in the lobby Of Congress-
and 1t is well grounded. The closing session OF the
to be one Of unusual pronigacy, but before the
sion was week old the HERALD opened upon the
lobby by an exposure of
FIFTY.FIvE DISTINCT JOBS,
giving the name and number Of each bill. Twenty.
three OF these bills giving away u.s. 0Oe 800 acres of
puOlic land. had already passed the Senate when
the HERALD exposure was made, aud thirty.two,
giving away ia 2ls COO acres more were yet pend
ing. with lar prospect of being pushed through.
The 1885, 224 800 acres Of public lands called for by
these bills are WORTH according to the lowest
oicla estimate, fully $1,000 O0O 00O The estimate
OF the number OF acres Is taken from a special
official report OF the General Land ONCE and their
value is found In the official reports OF sales OF lands
given to the Union Pacific and other railroad COM
panies. If the fftyve bills in question had passed
both houses the lobby OF the Forty first Congress
would have been full thousand million
dollars richer. Only two, however. succeeded IN
getting through. Fifty-three were defeated by the
HERALD exposure, and expired with the Forty.hrst
Congress.
It IS not too much to say that $1,000 o00 600 were
saved to the government Dy the defeat OF the fifty
three jobs In question. -T

gIGHIS Society, which confines its bust
a ness exclusively to ass ring the lives
Of persons resident iD the West Indies,
presents advantages such as no other As
surance Company, Iabouring in the same
field, can offer. Its scale of Premiums,
although considerably lower than that Of
any other Company, has nevertheless been
found quite adequate to provide for the
risk of life in the West Indies, and sufi-
cient to create large SURPRISES, out of
which Reversionary Bonuses, averaging
q per cent per annum upon the amount
assured have been distributed among the
Members Of the Society.
It's career during a period of 80 years
has clearly demonstrated the fact that the
lives Of persons residing in this part Of the
world, are, when carefully selected, almost
as valuable as those ~inhabiting Europe.
and that they DO not demand such cxces
slve Premiums as are charged by every
other Company.
The following abridged Table shows the
Premjlm ms required to assure 500, for the
whole term, upon a single life -
