No better place could bo designated for such
Museum than tho Metropolis Of tho Wost and

Many peraous would take pride in donating
money and ouriosities to such an object, whIlo

Ehc PhGnix Mutual Life.

While many life insurance companies
show Il very decided falling off in the bust
ness of 1872 from that of 1871, the Phoenix
Mutual Life shows very decided increase.
The annual statement of the company
given in another colum presents some very
attractive figures for every one interested in
life assurances, as well as for every policy
holder of the company, showing as they do
the continued prosperity and great stability
of the company. Its net assets now
amount to over eight millions, while its
surplus over and above all liabilities is
81 100000. During The past year the
company has paid dividends to policy hol-
ders and death claims amounting to about
two millions, and has over thirty
three thousand policies in force insuring
over seyenty-one millions. The excel
lent management of President Fesscnden
and Secretary Bnrns, is shown by the very
small ratio of expenses to receipts, and the
careful and exceedingly safe investment of
the company's funds. The growth of the
company during the past few years has
been something wonderful and is exceeded
only by few other companies in the world.
Every believer in life insurance will be
glad to notice that the officers of the COM
pany, while labOring to increase its business
always keep in view the all important mat
ter of the stability of the company and
the security of the policy holders, never re-
sorting to any catch penny dodge to attract
custom. Altogether, the showing is one
that reflects great credit upon the managers
of the company, and one in which every
citizen of Hartford can take commendable
pride.

Between May a, 1866. and July IA,
1870 the United States issued to said com
panv currency bonds due in 30 years. with
interest payable semi-annunlly to the aggrc-
gate amount of 1927 ,23G,5l2. These bonds
were sold by the company, and are out
standing. But the company failed to pay
the interest, and the government paid it,
except what il collected from the com
pany by transportation. and the interest

governors convention assert that the actual
cost of transportation 1000 miles by rail
is greater than the value of corn at the end
of the route $50 that If the railroad
should carry corn for its actual cost and
nothing more, from St. Louis to Savannah,
or from Chicago to New York, the pro-
ducer would receive no adequate remuncr-
alton for his labor" Such assertions as
these are destructive of any ideas of relief
from legislative regulation of rates, or from
increase of railroad facilities, and compel
us to take water with the governors, if
their statements are correct. They arc
probably about true, and the convcn-
tons conclusion that there should be
canals connecting the west with the cast
and south, seems to approach a promising
solution of the cheap transportation qucs-
ton from the west to the east or south.
The governors commend nearly all the
newly proposed water routes between the
West and the Atlantic the Niagara Ship
Canal, the Champlan and Hudson Canal,
an enlargement of the Erie Canal eff pos
siblc,' the extension of water lines from
the lakes TO the Mississippi by every pro-
posed route where nature has provided Il
way, and the improvement of the naviga-
ton of every river that will admit barge
The programme is large, hit so is the
country, and so are its needs. Something
must bc done If the railroads cannot
meet or bc made to meet the demand for
transportation at rates that will allow re-
enumeration to the producer, that demand
must be met some other way, and the trust
of the country for the additional facilities
needed will have to be in canals. lakes and
rivers.
How they are to he constructed is anOth-
or question. How or to what extent gov
eminent aid might be rendered is Il delicate
subject of consideration in view of some
of the country's railroad experiences. The
majority of the governors favored their
construction by private corporations with
government aid This was the way the
Pacific railroad was built and it is not
easy to zee how some of the greatest OF the
projects are 90 he accomplished without
government aid in some shape The people
are not likely to see that aid extended with
out objecting, unless the case is mcrtorious
to national extent, and the provisions
well guarded against betrayal of trusts
Perhaps not even then. The most merit
orious causes have heretofore made the
best bridges for raiders into the treasury.
