The principal item Of the liabilities of the
Company is to that fund, which, accord
ing to the principles and practice of
life insurance, is necessary to protect th6
aggregate of the insurance taken by the
Company. The amount is put down at
S12, ,197, ,029. This sum is required, and it
must produce net income Of y per cent to
>enable the Company to meet its obligations
within the average time during which they
will mature. This statement asserts thaf
the Company holds assets equal to SIS, Gas.
72S, which is in excess Of the Liabilities
the sum Of 81, ,173, ,016. On the face of these
figures the showing is not only favorable,
but promising one. The Investigators and
examiners do not find any frauds in the
assets; the loans, mortgages, bonds, and
real estate all e1ist as stated but they find
that there is large shrinka2e in the value
Of these assets. This shrinkage of value
is put down at something over $4,000, 900
One item of loss is a loan Of $500, 900 to B.
F. ALLEN and his partners, which is nomi-
@ally covered by mortgage; how much this
mortgage is worth, if anything, is one Of the
questions to bo determined. If there are
any others of this class, or whit may be called
bad or desperate debts, none has been men,
toned. The other shrinkages are alleged to
have taken place in the matter of real estate,
The Company owns real estate, and has built
lis own Offices. It also owns real estate which
it has had to purchase or take for loans made
thereon. This real estate is in New York,
Hartford, st. Louis, Chicago, Cincinnati,
and various other cities in the West and at
the East. As rule, these loans were made
before the panic, and when prices were in
dated; and, as general thing, the
loans were made at the rate. Of so
cents On the dollar of the then value
Of the property. Whether this real estate
is counted among the assets at the amount
Of money invested therein, and for which
the Company took the property, OF iscounted
at the par valuation made at the time of the
loan, we do not know. But hostile and
minority faction Of the managers of the
Company have reported that their real
estate in these large cities is not at this
time worth what it YVES represented to be on
the LIST of January, 1877. Nor is it made
public by what rule this real estate has been

The report from Hartford, Conn, is to the
effect that there is more or less trouble in the
affairs Of the Charter Oak Life-Insurance
Company. Fortunately, there is no intima-
ton Of any defalcation or misappropriation
Of the funds. The extent Of the allegation
is, that the securities in which the assets of
the Company are invested have, like Ill
other investments, been undergoing serious
shrinkage; and this circumstance, which is
probably true, is more or less exaggerated by
reason of quarrel between rival factions
among the managers There is another
srarning and instructive lesson furnished by
this confusion in the affairs Of this Lfe-In-
surnnce Company which cannot be too
earnestly taken home by all other corpora
tons and individuals. The financial condi-
ton Of this Company, on the LIST Of January
last, was stated ns follows:

A cheerful view of Washington is
given in a short story once told by
Mrs. Madison to a little girl, who now
repeats it in Lippincott, zone day in
Philadelphia" said Mistress Dolly
Madison, II was sitting in my parlor
with a very dear friend, Mrs. r. B.
Lee, when in walked Payne Todd
Cher SOM dressed in nay calico bed
gown. While we were laughing at
the figure he cut, the servant threw
open the door, and announced Gen. and
Mrs. Washington What to do with
that dreadful boy / didn't know. He
could not face the President in that
garb. Neither could he leave the room
without meeting them, for the door
they were entering was the only one.
I made him crawl quickly under low
broad settee on which I was sitting.
[ had just time to arrange the drapery
when the Washingtoaas entered After
the courtly greeting, and the usual
compliments Of the season, there came
from under the settee a heavy sigh,
which evidently attracted the Gener-
ais notice, However, 1 only talked
and laughed a little louder hoping to
divert his attention-oh, me!-there
came an cutlery and kick that could
not be ignored. So I stopped down
and dragged Payne out by the leg.
Gen. Washington's dignity left him for
once. Laugh! Why he fairly roared!
He nearly went into commissions. The
sight of that boy in that gown, all so
unexpected, coming wrong end first
from under my seat,-it was too
much
