The Attorney General of New York has an sppl-
cation for the dissolution OF the American Popu-
lar Life Insurance Company and the appointment
of a Receiver to wind up its affairs. The attorney
of the Company made application for referee as
provided by the statute to ascertain if the condi-
ton of the corporation was such as warranted the
winding up of its affairs, and the Court appointed
William Allen Butler to examine the accounts,
etc. DR.. Lambert makes an afii iavit in which he
attempts to show that the Company's fnan-
oial exhibit is substantially correct. The insur-
ance authorities, however, do not appear TO be
convinced, and have presented the officers to the
Graud Jury. The case against them is said to be
very strong.

Doubtless, it is possible to have peace and order

To All, Particularly Invalids,

spring is a trying season. Indications of sick
ness thould at once be attended to. Fatal
diseases may be caused by allowing the
bowels to become constipatcda and the system
to remain In a disordered condition, until
abe disorder has time to develop Itself. An
ounce OF prevention is worth a pound OF cure,
is an old and truthful saying. Therefore, we
advise all who are troubled with the COM
plants now observation-disclosures. indiges-
ton, disordered liver, want of appetite,
nausea, or feverish skin. to take, without
delay, Schenck's Mandrake Pills. We know
OF ne remedy so harmless and decisive In Its
action. 1t at once strikes at the root of the
disense and produces a healthy tone to the
system. People never need suffer from any
disease arising from q disordered condition
of the liver IL they would take this excellent
medicine when they feel the first indications
of the malady. Families leaving home for
the summer months should take three or four
boxes OF these pills with them. They have
an almost instantaneous effect. They will
relieve the patient Of headache In one or two
hours, and Will rapidly cleanse the liver OF
surrounding bile, and will effectuaiiy pre-,
vent a bilious attack. They are sold by oil
druggists.

propose to commemorate the Queens
Birthday, the 9th of May, by sus-
pension of business and engaging in
the usual games and sports which
have rendered there observances so in
teresting to visitors. In order to af-
ford our citizens an opportunity of
participating in this holiday, Mr..
Starr, has kindly placed the North Pa
cifc at the service of the public for q
grand excursion, leaving this place
on the 23d, and touching at all ports
on the Sound. She will carry ex-
cursionists the round trip for about
the usual cost of passage one way,
and will be accompanied by brass
band, to enliven the passage by soul
string strains appropriate to the &C.
casion. This is an excellent OPP
portunity to visit our British
cousins while attired in holiday
garb, and we doubt not large del
egations will respond from every
town on the Sound.

der which Mr.. Ingersoll contracted
his desperate prejudices against re-
ligion, and, while they do not ex-

ness, domestic and social life, with
the sweet reasonableness of Christ's
own spirit"
