FIRE INSURANCE.

As General Receiveriof the Circuit Court, l am
very often directed to loan money on real estate
security:
In making the loans, as well for my own protec-
ton as that of the borrower, 1 require that the
property be insured against fire.
1t is of course OF the utmost Importance that
the Insurance Company issuing policies shouio
be perfectly solvent, e. that the assets are NOT
simply words and figures. but such securities as
are known to the policy holder to De LIST, solvent
and End, easily converted into money when me-
cessity demands it.

AFEw PRECEPTs FROM CoNFUcIUs.-

A FEW PRECEPTs FROM CONTIGUOUS
'sBe severe to yourself and indulgent to
others thus you avoid all resentment"
s'The wise man makes equity and justice
the basis of all his conduct; the right form
the rule of behavior Difference and modesty
mark his exterior sincerity and fidelity
serve him for accomplishment"
''Leve virtue, and the people will be vir-
tuous the virtue Of great man is like the
wind; the virtue OF the humble is like the
grass; when the Wind passes over it the
grass inclines its head"
"Children should practice fiial piety at
home, and paternal Difference abroad they
should be attentive in their actions, sincere
and true in their words, loving all with the
whole force Of their affect ion.'
''Return equity and justice for evil done
to you, and pay goodness by goodness"
s'Without the virtue Of humility, one can
neither be honest in poverty nor contented
in abundance"
ssReal virtue consists in integrity Of heart
and loving your neighbor as yourself"
ssWhat desire that others shou Id not do
for me. equally desire not to do to them"
ssThink not OF faults committed in the
past, when one has reformed his conduct. y

John O'Sullivan is IA lawyer and member
Of the Common Council OF Harrison, New
Jersey. Some weeks ago the grand jurors
OF Hudson county, in that State, on their
oaths, found an indictment against the
aforesaid John for the crime of barratyv;
and on Saturday the traverse jury OF the
Court Of General Sessions, in and for said
county, brought In verdict Of guilty
Webster defines barratry as the ''practice Of
encouraging lawsuits and quarrels;" bat
the Jersey statute defines it as ''the stirring
up, moving, promoting. exciting or proc!ur-
ing suits and proceedings at law" The
penalty is fine of Eut exceeding 5000, or
imprisonment not exceeding one year or
both. 1t is lsaid that an example will be
made ..of O'Sullivan. He is the first con-
viction for that crime in the State and the
third In the Union. II all lawyers mo- moi

Protection against Cold.

The London Medical Press and Circular
says: As hygiene is the order of the day,
we cannot be too particular in impressing
upon the public certain facts which are too
often disregarded. Few are aware Of the
killing powers of intense cold and great heat,
even in this comparatively temperate eli
mate. Those who have been in the habit,
as we have, of watching the returns of the
registrar-general, well know how quickly the
death-rate rises during even short contin-
uance of cold weather. Now, the fact that
the increase in the mortality affects chiefly
the young and the old, as well as those who
are suffering from. or are predisposed to, af-
fections of the chest and the throat, indi-
Gates the class of people who should be es-
pecially careful to protect themselves against
the inclemency Of the weather. With re-
gard to children, the system of Gardening"
them, by allowing them to 60 thinly clad,
and exposing them to all sorts Of weather, is
delusion from which the minds Of some
parents are even now not altogherer Free
It is thought that il their chest are kept
warm, there is no need Of caring about their
arms or legs. But that is great mistake.
In proportion as the upper and lower ex-
tremities are we'll clothed will the circula-
tion be kept up and determined to the sur
face Of those parts, and in proportion to the
quickness and equable distribution Of the
circulation will be the protection against
those internal COMPOSITIONS which are but tie
first stage Of the most fatal diseases Of in
fancy and childhood. The same observation
holds good with respect to grown-up people
who are predisposed to pulmonary COM
plant. There is no exaggeration in saying
that the mortality from these and other az
fections would be considerably diminished
were people to avoid that ''catching cold'
OF which they so often and so lightly speak
and is matter of surprise to us that this
fact, of which most OF us are aware, does
not lead to more precautions being taken by
those who are anxious about their OWE
health or that OF others. To take care thai
the body is thoroughly warm and we'll
clothed just before going out in the very we
or very cold weather-to keep up the circu-
lation and warmth of the body rather by ex
ercise Of some kind than by sitting ovel
great fires or in overheated rooms-to bt
sure that the temperature Of the sleeping
apartment is not even so many degrees be.
low that OF the sitting room-these are thre
golden maxims, attention to which woult
prevent thousands from that ''chill" o
''cold" to the results of which so many valu
| able lives have been prematurelY sacrificed
