INsURANCE.-It is now considered to be a
mark of soth and neglect fer man to expose
his family to want, or his property to loss by
fire, without providing that safeguard which
may be procured at SO trfling cost. Among
the many insurance houses in Portland none
are more favorably known to the public than
the old firm of w. d. Little, & Co. As the
trusted representatives (for more than thirty
years. of number of first-class companies,
they stand in the front rank, having acquired
an extensive experience and a favorable infu-
ence.
Their list of companies, combining more than
$75,000,000 assets, embraces, in addition to the
great Mutual Life Company of New York, the
old Continental, and Hoffman of New York
the well-known and sound Phoenix, National
Orient and Connecticut of Hartford, the Attain
tic of Providence, Aemannia of Cleveland, the
staunch old Scottish Commercial of Glasgow,
and tie Western of Toronto
1t will be seen, therefore, by their advertise
ment that they are well prepared for effecting
insurance of a trustworthy kind at the most
favorable rates.

PORTLAND AND ROCHESTER, RAILROAD
The Portland and Rochester Railroad Company
has notified the city that it cannot pay the
interest on the city loan due July LIST, and at
the same time equip the road for the connect
ing business with the Nashua and Rochester
Railroad, which is to be open about the LIST Of
September. The Directors say that it will cost
about 100000 to put the road into the condi-
ton for business which the ir contract with the
Nashua and Rochester road requires when the
two roads form connection at Rochester; and
to enable them to comply with the terms of
this contract the city is requested to extend the
time for the payment Of the July interest. The
direstors say that the business of the road is
steadily increasing, and the prospects for
large increase of business after the opening Of
the Nashua and Rochester road are very
fattering. The aid asked of the city is tempo
rary, and as the directors say, necessary to lput
them in condition to avail themselves of the
large business which will result from this con-
nectlon with the road leading to New York. 1t
is proposed Immediately after the opening of
ehe Nashua and Rochester road to run two ex-
press Trains per day-one day and one might
