There are thirty-five companies in Nash
vile, and among these the insurance on less
than half the property in the city must be
divided, and when the running Office ex-
penses, taxes, ETC., are taken into consider
alton. it will be seen that the business does
not return such enormous profits as might
be supposed. One company paid taxes
last week to the amount of 81, 191. One
agent informed our reporter that the profits
for last year, of all the insurance compa-
MES doing business in Tennessee, amount
ed to only $4,000, which sum will not
cover the insurance on the property lately
burned at the corner of Church and College.
The insurance companies are taking
steps to organize a fire patrol in the city,
the members of which will attend fires,
take charge of the contents of burning
buildings and thus reduce the amount Of
loss to the owner as well as TO the compa-
MES.
Among our Citizens generally there is
but little opposition to the proposed tax
for the erection of a fire alarm, and this
opposition seems to be confined to the men
whose property is close to the various en-
CINE houses. These men do not consider
The fact that the unnecessary wear and
tear on engines and horses, Ito say nothing
of the risk TO life and limb of Il c%itiZens)
would amount to enough in two years to
pay for the fire alarm, and the expense
thus incurred, must and will be paid.

A TOWER TALLER THAN Babel
We clip the following interesting item
from the Scientific American of De-
cembcr 9th, 1873:
Mcssrs. Clarke, Reeves g. Co., pro
prietOrs of the PhGnixville Bridge
Works, Philadelphia, Pa, proposes to
construct wrought iron tower, one
thousand feet in height, to be COM
pleted for the American Centennial Ex-
hibitiolf in 1876. The tower is to be
circular in section, one hundred and
fifty feet in diameter at the base, d.
minishing to thirty feet at the top. It
is proposed to have spiral staircases
winding around the center tube for
those preferring to walk up; but ele-
vators will be provided, which are
calculated to ascend to the top in three
minutes. We have in process Of cn-
craving full page il ustratiOn, repre-.
senting the tower in contrast with st.
Peters Cathedral, ROME, st. Paul's
Cathedral, London, Bunker Hill Monu-
ment, the Pvramyds of Egypt, and
other existing tall structures, all of
which, alongside of the one thousand
feet tower, look like pigmies.

bCIILu.-Many ttcrnpte have been
made to account for the superiority of
butter from one district over that from
another. The most popular notion is
that it is due to the greater prevalence
Of the "swcet vcrEs! grass in the pas.
lures and hayiields, which give its
peculiar fragrance to meadow hay.
Unfortunately for the poetry Of the
matter, this grass is one Of the poorest
for pasture purposes. The truth is
that much depends on the purity Of
the air in which the cows are MIXED,
and the Dreaming, churning, etc, etc.,
takes place, than upon any slight diff.
ference in the food upon which the
cattle are fed. Milk has particular
affinity for any odors which may hap.
pen to be in the atmosphere, and what
it absorbs it holds fast. A striking in
stance Of this was shown in the rapid
strides made by typhus fever i'll the
neighborhood OF Holloway, England,
q couple of years ago, which was
clearly proved to have its rise from,
and to be propagated by, an open tank
on the premises on one Of the large
diaries. TIE old fashioned strict at
tention to cleanliness in the dairy is
still maintained, but it needs to be
by complete exclusion

Many years since there lived in vir-
sinia q Baptist preacher named E.
Though uneducated, he was sound
thinker and eloquent speaker, and-1lO
minister had a more devoted flock. It
was the custom, during the inclement
season, to hold meetings at the resi-
denccs Of members, and once or twice
in winter nj tho house Of the preacher
For some years it was observed that
B. neither preached nor conducted the
meeting when held at his house, but
secured the services of a neighboring
minister. He was often pressed for an
explanation, without success; but
finally, in response to the impOrtuni-
lies Of some Of his flock, gave the fol-
lowing:
.N hen 1 was younger than now-in
fact, not long after the commencement
of my ministratiOn--I held meeting
at my own house. It being customary
for many of the congregation to remain
for dinner, Mrs. B. sent our negro boy
Tim to mel ghbor PauIs for solue but
ter. lin returned and located him
self, standing on one foot at time,
on tile outskirts of the congregation.
Being well warmed up in my sermon,
neither of Tim nor his errand,

"'And what did Paul say!'
s!Tim, at the top Of his little squeak

ny early ministry. Since then | have
Kept mypreaching disconnected from
my domestic affairs"
