Insurance that Is sure
-. Z. IN n ~
4N1LRANCE Co. OF HARTFORD
CONN ECTlCUT.

This old and reliable company has
opened on Office in this city.
This Company appears to be removed
beyond the contingency of real disas-
ter. 1t may suffer llssess, it may en-
counter misfortune against which no
hun an foresight could provide; sus-
picions may be engendered by rival
companies, but she goes calmly on in p
liGe of duiy laid down by itself, ana
will never abandon it if it takes the
last dollar.
Its losses by he Chicago fire were
about $4,000 000, every dollar o. which
was paid before maturity. Had uDon
this, was the great Boston fire, bring
ing loss of$i 100000 no man bad 20
wait an hour for his money. Ever y
one who wants insurance is concerned
70 know where to look for that whic is
SAFE which after all is the cheapes
ms rance. We feel pei lectly safe in
yin3 that for insi- alce that IS sa le,
ere is no cam pany aAeau o. she Aet

Look OCT FOR THEM. Our ex-
changes are flied with accounts OF
swindling operations going on
throughout the country. A popu-
lar plan just used by the sharp
witted scoundrels is to operate in
the sale Of cloths which are put at
an extremely low price, but which
prove to be worthless and thus
dear in the end

1t is noticed that the tactics OF
Mr.. Beecher's counsel in his trial
are those of obsi uc,iOns and de-
lay. II he is an innocent man,
people think he should seek to
show it by promptly meeting he
main charge on the plain issue it
presents, BY managing 10 escape
or postpone trial by The courts, he
simp. } forces the pubic TO ty the
case, and the verdict is veIy apt 10
be, guilty"
