TIIS ASSOCIATION WAS INCORPORATED
Il at Portland, Oregon, October 18th, 1874, with
a capital stock OF $4,000, on n United States
gold coin basis. and under the laws Of the State
OF Oregon, for the purpose OF issuing Life, En-
dowment and Annuity Policies, on such terms
and at such rates as Will be within the means
OF every citizen, and retain at home the large
sums now annually sent East for Life Insur-
ance, which can be as safely, and to the public
more advaniageously, invested in building up
our home interests
Mutual Life Insurance, in It's truth, Is simply
the agreement OF any number OF persona that
upon the death OF any one OF them those len
living shall each contribute a certain agreed
sum, which In Its total or aggregate shall be
given 10 the family-wife, child, relative or es-
tate-as stipulated by the deceased. But such
persons so agreeing df any considerable num-
berl require the services OF responsi BILE agency
for the collection and disbursement OF such
moneys, and IL is for such purpose that this As
sociation has been organized and duly incor-
porated under the laws Of the State
The safe and honorable management Of the
affairs OF the Association is guaranteed by its
incorpOrators, whose names are a warranty 10
the public for the safe custody OF their trust
funds.
Life Policies.
In issuing these, the design of the Association
Is, as agents OF the people, 10 provide them
with the advantages or a Mutual LIE or Mutual
Contribution system OF Life Insurance at ac-
tual cost, without the unnecessary and in some
cases unbearably heavy expense 10 which the
NIT.
The origlnatOrs Of the benefcent plan OF Mu-
tual Lie insurance never designed that the
participants should pay four times its actual
cost, nor Indeed any cost, until the anticipated
deaths had actually occurred. Common sense
tells us that paying debt when Il Is due Is su
heienti IN all business transactions.
EndOwments.
Payable in five, ten, fifteen and twenty years,
VIII be Issued by the Association In its cOrpo-
rate capacity, giving its pledge for their true
payment, As stated over the signatures OF their
President and their Secretary. That better in
terest on money, and better results 20 the hold
ers OF such endOwments can be obtained here
than In the Eastern states or in Europe, is evi-
dent, when We consider the difference between
the well-known three to five, and six 10 seven
per cent, realized in the East, against the ten
and twelve per cent. interest that can be safely
obtained on the Pacific coast.
AnnuItles.
The Association issue Life Annuities for the
payment each year OF agreed or specified sums,
IN gold coin, TO the holders OF such policies
these will be issued over the signatures OF the
PRESIDENT and the Secretary. The same reasons
Which enable the Association TO Issue endow-
ments or agreements TO pay a specified sum at
the END OF stated term OF years aud TO give
Sucn endowments on better terms than can be.

CAMDEN CAMP.-As usual, the attendance
at Camden Camp Meeting is large-the largest,
perhaps. for the season on the Peninsula.
With magnificent grounds and other unsurpas-
sed camp meeting appliances it would hardly
be possible for a camp there TO be small. The
meeting commenced last Friday the venerable
John Edwards officiating. There are about
leo tent., nearly al! those on the front row be.
ing two-story and several of them quite hand
some The crowd on Sunday was immense, OF
course, aud the dust sitting. At times It was
so binding as to obstruct the view across the
circle, and almost sufcating, until the
promenading was stopped.
The Sunday sermons were by Rev Prot.
Harman, Of Dickinson College, in the morn
ing; by Rev. Geo. Hughes, Of the New Jer-
sey Conference, in the afternoon, and by }. +.
Price, young Dickinson College student in
the evening. The sermons, particularly the
first two, are spoken of as fine efforts.
The singing is excellent, and is under the
charge Of Profs. Robinson, Of Baltimore and
I Fischer Of Philadelphia.
! The management is in the hands Of Rev.

Revs. Watson, of Dover, and Irwin Of Cam

4 CRAZY THIEF-On the 29th Of July last
a young married man named Henry Ennis, re-
siding, he says, near Milton, went to Laurel,
and while in the jewelry store Of Mr.. William
Thompson, stole four silver watches and four
cases. He Immediately left and came over TO
Seaford, and going TO the jewelry store of Mr.,
VIM. A Howard, left Que of the watches for
repair, and also left some of the cases with
him. This lead to his detection, aud at his
trial before n Seaford Squire it was also found
that he had a stolen horse and carriage 10 his
possession. At the conclusion of the trial be
was held to bail in the sum Of 800, in defaul.
of which he was committed to Jail at George
town On Monday gentleman named Alex.
ander Vincent came down AMI identified the
horse and carriage, stating that they had been
stolen form Harrington. Ennis confessed the
theft, and the Seaiord Citizen says he evidently
is not of sound mind

TIE HANGING of the negro boy Ernest Smith,
at Easton, on the 7th inst, was the occasion of
as grand frolic as the town ever witnessed.
Two companies Of soldiers from Baltimore and
the Elston company marched the boy to the
galows, and the preachers, lawyers. doctors
and officers of the law formed in procession, in
carriages, looking as if they we're on 4th Of
July parade. Such pompous shows over the
taking of human life, thus paraded before
the populace, is almost as demoralizing as the
crime for which Smith was hung. He stood
before the multitude, on the gallows, looking
down at his coffin, with as much Indifference
as he had shown through all his Imprisonment
and thousands of people stood looking at him
swing with as much composure as if he had
been a circus man performing on tight rope
He showed no contrtion and refused to make
any confession. Is it to be presumed that the
public morals of Talbot were heightened by th
public display in the hanging Of man.

Der of citiz ,ns who requested him to accept
another nomination, positively declining re-
nomination by the Democrats. He says his ap-
pearance as candidate in 1872 was his first

bury seems to be the home of newspaper
ventures. 1t now has four journals, but
whether it supports them all, or whether they
are determined to live in spite of support, i,
the question to be determined. 1t keeps the
Peninsula press busy to note the variou:
phases of journalism as fast as they occur il
this town. Either the papers are changing
themselves, or changing their editors or fxinj
up their publishers almost continually, unit
the subject has become almost matter o
jest.
The rumor comes that another paper is to b.
started in MiddletoWn--a Republican organ.
1t will be a risky venture to put two paper
where one has had to struggle manfully to hol
out, and we think it would be easier to start
such an enterprise than to keep it going. Ye
the trial may be the only argument that wi
convince the projectors Of what we say.

SMYRNA's PEACH CROP is nearly at an end.
MoAday being the heaviest day, when five
cars were shipped. By way of comparison we
will state that eighteen cars have been shipped
in one day by our growers. The yield is about
one-sixth of a crop-surely not more than
one 6fth-and yet, Notwithstanding the def.
cheney, the price is so good as to gofar towards
satisfying the growers For about ten days
the prices have ruled we'll on to 81. so per baS-
ket, on the average, while SO and even 81 per
basket has been realized Some shipped by
Mr.. A. L. Hudson brought 81 last week, and
some shipped by Mr.. j. J. Arnold on Satur-
day last brought So so after remaining in the
car two nights Fruit was sold at Clayton Oh
Saturday for 81. The freight and carriage to
New York costs our growers "a cents, and the
| 10 per cent commission, at say 50. so per bas
ket, is 25 cents more, or 40 cents in all, thus
leaving them a balance of 81 Of. The yield
per tree is about as estimated, but the in
creased acreage makes the crop heavier thar
was anticipated. Our highest shipment fo
one day was put at four cars. Our growers
now think that a third of crop, the Peninsul,
over, would have been as much as the marke
could have stood, while a general full crol
would have been worth little more than thi
mere iuklng of fruit they have shipped-ex
cept to the railroads.

A SUSSEX County WHITE GIRL MARRIEs
MULATTO. Quite a .furore of excitement
was created in Midletord. a little village
about three miles from Seatord, on Saturday
week by the announcement that young white
girl named Allen, aged about II, had run off
with bright mulatto man named William
Perkins, aged about 81. We quote from the
Seaford Citizen of Friday:
"On Saturday last Miss Allen told her
father she was going over to the residence of a
farmer in the neighborhood to collect some
money due her for picking berries, but instead
of doing so she came to Seaford and went to
Bridgevillc, where she was met by Perkins,
and the two proceeded to Philadelphia, where
they were married and they are now living in
Camden, N. j. Miss Allen is represented a;
being girl Of prepossessing appearance.
letter received from Perkins by colored mar
in this town states that they will be home
about Christmas. We anticipate that an ex
ceedingly warm reception will be given them.
