AMERICAN POPULAR LIFE INSURANCE COM
PANY.-lf we understand it correctly, this
Company proposes to insure life on new basis
or at least new in this country Instead OF
having arbitrary rates for given age, 1t pro-
poses to consider each applicant on his own
property. Accordingly man who sustalns
the tests and is found sound, will be insured
at lower rates than if less so. This is certainly
a proposition worthy of consideration, as 1t
strikes one favorably at first sight. Messrs.
Barnes & O'Brion, No. 30 Exchange street, are
General Agents, and John B. Hudson, 2S6
Congress street, special agent

from the carriage, but fortunately were not IN
rured One of the horses was severely cut and

Rev. EDWIN BURNHAM.-Last night the
First Baptist church was we'll filled with an at
tentive audience. The preacher selected for
his text LIST John iii. 8. "And every man that
hath this hope in him purifeth himself. even
as he is pure" Hope, said he, is the founda-
ton of Christian confidence. The object of
hope is to make all men Christians. He con-
demned the practice of those Christians who
when asked if lhey love God say, 81 hope I.
do" If my wife should say when asked if she
loved me, 81 hope do l should not be in a
hurry to leave Portland and join her. In death
there is something disagreeable and the Bible
so refers to it. God can make death welcome.
God has provided His disciples with divine
vision. Job says: 'In my flesh 1 shall see
God" The happiness of the future is all for
us. The religion of Jesus Christ is suited to
help us in the turmoil of life. People who are
free to converse on other subjects have little to
say about religion. Ministers dare not preach
what they think.
The Reverend gentleman will occupy the
pulpit of this church this and tomorrow even
ings. IT is understood that he will remain in
this city through next week.

before Judge Symonds of the Superior Court.
James Whitney of Cumberland, sued the town
of Cumberland for $4,000 damages, for injuries
received while driving over the county. road in
said town, February 18TH, 1871 On the even

pung, from a visit to friend in Falmouth, and
