1t is claimed that the advantages of
a life insurance effected on the TontiDe
plan of the Equitable Life Assurance So
cicty, over one effected on the ordinary
plan, arc couspicuousy great. In the
last case, the usual method is to return to
the policy holder the surplus premium or
dividend at the end Of the first and every
subsequent year. This method is simple
and convenient; but the burden Of main
tanning it falls upon those who possess the
greatest vitality, and who contribute most
to the formation of the surplus fund bv
the payment Of the'premiums year after
year Thus, it is only 6y the Tontine
plan that the greatest advantages OF life
insurance can be secured to those who
live long, and pay the largest sums for
their insurance. To secure these advan-
tagcs to all persons desiring to insure, is
the object of this system. aud it is appa-
rent that BY no other system can those
advantages be more safely. economically
and certainly attained. Send to W. IL.

crowded as never before. Last Saturday
night, 400 guests tested its generous ac-

fourths of all the guests here, permanent
and transient, are from our city and vi
entity. 1t is peculiarly Boston resort.
With one exception, the proprietors of the
house are Boston men. That one excep-
ton, however, just now is quite a notable
one, being the Democratic nominee for
Governor, Mr.. Bingham. He personally
superyises the house. The kind of"miue
host" he makes will be readily understood
from the fact that he is personally SO pop.
ular throughout the State that he is sure
to run immensely ahead Ct his ticket, this
Fall, and with any opponent less sound

pretty sure of a seat in the gubornational

Democratic Co. Convention.

A respectable number OF Democrats as
sembled at the Town Hall in this village
on Thursday last, and in the absence of
the Committee were called to order by
Waldo Brigham, who read the call.
Hon. V. W. Waterman was chosen
president; Samuel Andrews and David
Campbell, Vice Presidents and Francis
Finnegan, Secretary.
G. S. Noyes, Esq, suggested the small
number in attendance, owing probably to
the uufavorable weather, and inquired If
an adjournment would not be best under
the circumstances.
A. l.. Noyes opposed an adjournment
and moved that the convention proceed to
nominate a ticket in open convention. In
support of his motion he said that he
vas not in favor of uniting with dlsaffect.
ed Republicans on a ticket--he had voted
Republican two years ago and got "glor-
ously defeated" and was now in favor of
straight Democratic ticket. If Repub-
leans had become Disguised with their
party they could come over to them, and
for one was opposed to "ihese Wheels
Mr.. Brigham favored an adjournment.
He said convention had met atO,nD.nade
ticket, bat the ''ring" had undertaken to
destroy it, and he was in favor OF uniting
with any party farmers or what MOTTO
break up these rings. TEey could be no
worse off he favored the new movement
and was not afraid to have it published in

1t is proper to say in this connection
that Nathan Mcfarland a Democrat who
has been very active in the new movement,
and Fred Bliss Dbat-as-it in politics, were
busy among the members before organza'
ton, impartiug important Information,
which we Judge to b. ttis:--that the
Farmers" were to hold another conVen-
ton next week and that an adjournment
Nh after that would be advisable. AL
though We have no personal knowledge
that they advised this, We certainly teei
warranted in claiming it, aue we believe
the convention assembled to ratily the
nominations made the Thursday previous,
and would have done so had there been
ticket for them to ratify. Furthermore
that they will ratity tho ticket to be made
tomorrow when they assemble on Friday
