THIS COMPANY has devised
and perfected a new style and sys-
tenn of Insurance, to be called the
Mutual Investment Policy
to which they call your particular at
tention, fully believing that it sup
plies want long felt bv the insuring
public.
This Company now offers TO the In
surer A PERFECT POLICY, because the
contract Is POSITIVE, DEFINITE, CLEAR
AND CONCISE, admitting Of no argu-
ment, misrepresentation or misunder-
standing between the insurers and in
sured
1t gives the largest protection the
money will buy In the event of death,
and guarantees definite cash sur
render value to the living owner, for
each annual premium paid.
Everypolicy, no matter what its
premium, has endorsed upon it its
annual value, year after year.
Each applicant elects his own term
and is not compelled to pay for
insurance any longer than he needs
If.
The premiums charged are the
same as are charged by Mutual
Companies generally, and furnish the
maximum OF insurance at the mini
mum of cost.
1t is plain contract, easily under
stood, and possesses every element of
safety, security and satisfaction, and
is more permanent, less wasteful
and more valuable than any other
vet devised.
1t shows not alone how to get into
insurance, but when the object for
which the policy was taken ceases to
exist, how TO get out pleased and
satisfied.

greater obligation than those which he owed
to the Grand Sachem, and we have all seen
how loosely such ties bind Mr.. Wickham.
Instead of trying to hold such a political
eel which will slip out Of his hands when
he thinks his grasp is most secure, the editor
of the Commercial had better join with as and
weaken the democratic party in the State
election by cutting of its chief base Of sup
plies in the city patronage
Unless the members of the Legislature act
against their known convictions, as declared
III their interviews with our correspondents.
we shall have a spring election ia spite of
bargaining politicians. AS soon as the bill
has passed the Legislature the great point of
interest will be the selection of candidate
for the Mayoralty. There are several dis
tinguished citizens whose names will at
once occur to the public as highly capable,
as, for example, Messrs. Green, Stebbins,
Dana, A. r. Stewart, Agnew and perhaps
one or two others We could cordially
support any of these gentlemen, but our
preference is Mr.. Dana. He may not want
the office, but the Office wants him. In the
first place, he has executive abilities of the
highest order; in the next place. he is Wig
orous reformer, with (what is rare in re-
formers) knowledge enough to direct his
zeal in the third place. he is more CONVEX
SAINT with public affairs than almost any
other of our citizens; and in the fourth
place, as a browning qualification, his pride
in showing how well the Office can be ad-
ministered by competent Mayor and set
ting useful example for his successors
would be more prevailing motive with him
than the honor and emoluments of the sta
ton. We sadly need demonstration of the
great capabilities of the Mayoralty for useful
ness in the hands of first class man, and
for this reason we hope that Mr.. Dana will
consent to be our next Mayor

Economy in n Bad Place.

An important step is under consideration
in the Board of Health 1t is proposed to
do not only startling, but dreadful thing
1t is proposed to diminish, abolish destroy,
retire and evaporate that illustrious friend
Of the public, DR.. Harris, the Registrar of
Vital Statistics DR.. Harris is the only part
of the Board of Health that is worth but
ton to the public. If all the rest of the ma
chinery were abolished and Dr. Harris left
we should be none the worse. If DR.. Harris
is abolished and the other part is left we
shall have fine payroll still on our hands,
with nothing to show for it. This reduction
of the Registrar is proposed as the re-
suit of q solemn conclave of the Board,
which had before it the momentous prob
lem-What should be done to reduce the
expenses in view of the fact that the Board of
Estimate has cut down the allowance?
Naturally the Board proposes to do the
wrong thing, and we suppose its action is in
tended as a reproach at the Registrar for
having made himself conspicuously useful,
and so departed from the principles of the
Board No action has ever yet been taken
by the Board of Health in public admins
tration that would not have been much bet
ter done by the police under medical advice.
In that respect it merely duplicates police
functions, and the tax till is tapped twice for
the same service But its collection and
publication of vital statistics was an
advantage to the public. This might have
been done under police auspices also but it
has been well done 10y DR.. Harris, and in a
city where we have 80 little duty properly
done by public servants it would be happy
thought to leave well enough alone. If the
Board did not enforce sanitary regulations,
if it did not prevent epidemics, at all events
DR.. Harris always kept his signal establish
ment in operation, and we were tolerably
well informed as to the condition of the city
by the stateme Mt of the number of deaths
and their causes. This, in fact, was con-
slant exhibition of the inefficiency Of the
sanitary government, and that may account
for the proposal to dethrone our autocrat of
statistics.

The University Athletic Meeting.

The recently organized Athletic Associa-
ton of American Colleges met yesterday at
the Fifth Avenue Hotel to arrange for the
various foot contests Of university week,
1876, at Saratoga. Last year, as arranged for
this year, these events came off on the day
after the boat race, thus allowing the rowers
also to compete, several Of whom carried off
principal prizes. Then, too, for the first time
graduates were allowed to enter, separate
races being provided for them. This plan,
occupying both morning and afternoon,
made the day long, and, towards the end,
tiresome. The entries were so astonishingly
numerous and the contests passed off so
pleasantly that, with any approach to good
management, the future success of these
tennial year the association will doubtless
take unusual care to have the management
and programme all that can be desired, for
among the visiting Europeans there will be
more good judges of foot-work even than
OF rowing, and they will form their impress
sion of our ability in athletics largely from
this meeting.
Instead OF crowdlng the events all into one
day they might have been arranged for two
successive forenoons, those of Thursday and
Friday, July 20 and 81 While the first day
would be given up to the Undergraduate
races the second, instead of being for grad
yates only might have had it's contests open
to both This would have rendered them un-
commonly interesting. Last year, for in
stance, in the graduates seven-mile walk, Mr..
Eustis of Wesleyan did outwalk Mr.. Giinster
of Williams. But in the undergraduate Mr..
Taylor of Harvard badly beat the time of
both 1t can easily be inferred, then, what
an exciting race the three together would
make, and how completely it would settle
who was the best man of the year. 1t is to
be regretted that the motion to invite the
English University athletes did not prevail.

pen into our columns and the whole Atlantic
that it passed under wouldn't have time to
cool it. Since Longfellow has declined the
Centennial labor it would be a fine fancy for
Tennyson to volunteer the thought of the
mother country on this subject. Our ideas
on the subject of the cable are liberal, as our
readers will see but then we do not believe
that the sole function of a newspaper is to
discover and chronicle what has been stolen
from the public treasures in all the cities
and counties and States of the Union.

Nearly every one is fond Of rhymes, espe-
cially good ones but it is argued that they
should not be sent by cable. Why not |?
For our part we cannot see why the play of
fancy-the little ripples on the surface of the
great ocean of human existence-should not
be chronicled with the rest. Indeed, we
would cable joke, if it we're q good one,
with the same conscientious accuracy with
which we would record ministerial crisis
or q monetary panic. If Paris had Talley-
rand or London a Sheridan in these days we
would be ready to give them the people of
continent for auditors. If Carlyle had
still vitality enough to write anything worth
reading we might cable that If Tennyson
should write poem on our Centennial does
anybody believe our London correspondent
would let it get mouldy in the mail bags

CoNGREss REAssEsIBLED YESTERDAY in good
humor after the holidays. Speaker Kerr
took his chair, looking we are glad to hear,
in good health. The House was frolcsome
and inclined to relish little buncombe about
'loyal soldiers, but managed to get through
a good deal of preliminaries to the actual
work of the session Mr. Morrison made his
first essay as leader of the House in the
easiest portion of his duties. A resolution
of his, enjoining on all the committees to
look industriously for fraud, corruption and
mismanagement in the various departments
and to be economical with the peoples money,
was adopted. The Senate was humdrum :;
bills and resolutions on every subject, from
specie payments to grasshoppers were intro
duced and referred. Mr.. Morton even asked
to have his Mississippi election inquiry stand
over till Monday. The first days work was
calculated more to pique curiosity than to
satisfy it. The democrats in the House de-
veloped next to nothing the republicans
watched and waited.

The CABLE.-If it had been said when the
first successful cable was laid and dispatches
of twenty words came regularly through
within an hour or two that the HERALD would,
within ten years, give a whole page Of news
sent from Europe over the cablein one day, the
nearest policeman would have taken the pre-
caution to lock up the speaker and his friends
would have applied for writ de lundtico IN
q,drendo. But yesterday the HERALD pub
lished whole page of matter sent by cable
from the various cities of Europe and even
that page did not contain all our cable news,
as our extensive marine reports were printed
elsewhere. Great progress has certainly
been made in the telegraphic manipulation
that made this feat possible, as well as in
the conception of journalism on grand
