Gamblers and Insurance COmpani.

It is anindubitable result of the theory
of probabilities that every gambler, if he
continues long enough, must ultimately
be ruined. Suppose he tries the martin
gale, which some believe infallible, and
which IS, as l am informed. disallowed in
the gambling houses. In the method of
playing, he first bets say 81; if ne loses
it, he bets 81; if ne loses that, he bets
81 il he loses that, he bets IS; if he
then gains, he has lost l + + Al, and
he has gained 81 more; and no matter
how many bets he loses, the first one he
gains viii make him 81 richer than he
will probably gain at first but, at last,
the time will come when the run OF
luck IS so against him that he will not
have money enough to double, and must
therefore let his bet go. This will proba-
bIv happen before he has won as much
as he had in the first place, so that this
run against him will leave him poorer
than be began; some time or other it will
be sure to happen. 1t is true that there
is always a possibility of his winning any
sum the bank can pay, and we thus come
upon a celebrated paradox that, though
he is certain to be ruined, the value of
his expectation calculated according to
the usual rules (which omit this consid-
eration) is large. But, whether 8 gam
bier plays in this way or any other, the
same thing is true, namely: That if he
plays long enough he will be sure some
time to have such a run against him as
to exhaust his entire fortune. The same
thing is true of an insurance company.
Let the directors take the utmost pains
to be independent of the great confagra- |
tions and pestilences, their actuaries can |
tell them that, according to the doctrine |
of chances, the time must come, at /
last. when their losses will bring |
them to a stop. They may tide over |
such a crisis by extraordinary means.
but then they will start again in a weak
ened state, and the same thing will hap
pen again all the sooner. An actuary
might be inclined to deny this, because
he knows that the expectation Of his
company is large, or perhaps (neglecting
the interest upon money! Is infinite
But calculations of expectations leave
out of account the circumstance now
under consideration, which reverses the
whole thing. However, i must not be
understood as saying that insurance is
on this account unsound, more than other
kinds of business All human affairs
rest upsn probabilities, and the same
thing is true everywhere. If man were
immortal he could be perfectly sure of
seeing the day when every thing in which
he had trusted should betray his trust,
and, in short, of coming eventually to
hopeless misery. lie would break down,
at last, rs every great fortune, as every
dynasty, as every civilization does. In
place of this we have death.--I Popular

A Russian TRADE Against England.

Yes, undoubtedly England is Russias
enemy. Both openly and secretly she
resists her in every place where she sup
poses there is a possibility of Russia's
growth. She spares not money, in
tTigues, calumny, or endeavor. She en-
courages treason in Bokhara, and unin-
