ST. LOUIS, Feb 15.-The Democrat to-day

Simpson, who were prominently connected with
the Senatorial bribery business in Kansas, re-

the money he gave York was a subscription to

said there was no National Bank of Indepen-

longing to Mr.. Page, who is a friend of Pome-
roy's and who was at Topeka at the time, and
the probabilities are that had Pomeroy desired
to subscribe for bank stock he would have done
so through his friend. He further stated that
he received a telegram yesterday from Topeka,
informing him that it had been ascertalned
from what bank the money he received from
Pomeroy came from, and that it would be

STEAMER BURNED.
Twenty.One Lives Lost

NEW ORLEANS, Feb. 15.-The steamboat
Henry A. Jones, from Houston for Galveston,
with a cargo of 442 bales of cotton, was burned
this morning in Galveston Bay. Twenty-one
lives were lost, including Capt. Price and the
first clerk.
GALVESTON, Texas, Feb. 15.-The steamer
Charles Forbes brought to this city the rescued
persons from the burned steamer Henry A.
Jones, among them assistant pilot d. G. Cor
dom He gives the following particulars When
about three miles above Red Fish bar, at five
O clock in the morning, the Waterman ON the
lower deck called out Bed Fish Light IN sight.
The Waterman was in the act of casting the
lead when an explosion was heard, something
like the escaping of the steam, but more re-
sembling the report of q gun. The first pilot,
who was on the roof, ran down to the lower
deck and Immediately sung out to the assistant
pilot to make his escape as the boat was ON fire.
Gordon Immediately left the wheel and ran
down stairs. When he got below he found that
the fire had wrapped the whole vessel and car
20 in sheet of flame. He had only time to
reach the barge in tow which caught fire and
was cut loose from the burning boat and float
ed away. Murphy, the engineer on duty, did
not escape, and all is conjecture regarding the
cause of the disaster. The probabilities are
that the fire wall gave way and the report heard
was caused by its fall. The whole cargo and
vessel were in flames within five minutes after
the first alarm. There were 4S passengers on
board and q were saved. Loss $4,000

advertisement of the Atlantic Mutual ms. Co.
of New York. This company received for pre-
miums during the year ending Dec, 81, 1872,
S7,9SS, 679.40, and paid losses, return premiums
and expenses, tie sum of $3,444, $50 As. The
total assets of the company are 1851, 2O6.13.
This company paid 6 per cent interest on out
standing certificates of profits; redeemed the
issue os 1869, and paid dividend of 80 per
cent. on net earned premiums for the year 1872.
So that insurers in this company received
back in scrip, bearing per ceut. interest, and
worth 80 per cent, at date of issue, so per cent
on all the premiums paid the company during
the year, (loss or no loss.) So person who
patronizes this company obtains perfect secur-
ity, costing far less than to insure in any other
company in the country. The public will find
it for their security and pecuniary interezt to
patronize this company. J. w. Munger, No.

en- the agencies of the Girard, the Allemania

and firmly established companies. While Mr..
Barnes proposes to do business independently,
he neither desires to obtain rates excessively
high nor ruinously low. He has taken as his
platform 'limited amounts on well selected
and well scattered risks at reasonable rates. -
That this is the correct principle in insurance no
one will think of denying. But it takes some
courage and much frmness in these days to
enable one to undeyiatingly act upon it. We
doubt not that the good sense and love of fair
play possessed by our citizens will lead them
to sustain him by their patronage in the way
