! A correspondent writes to US. "Will
YOU in your next issue OF "HERALD"
call the attention of the ministers o
Woodstock to the Poor House. There
are 80 TO 81 human beings that never
have the gospel preached TO them ano
when they die, they have not, $50 L
have been told) christian burial. Such
ought not TO be the case. They are
giving us missionary sermons ana
think there is work tor them here.
think if the attention OF the authorities
were called to the fact, tney would
have a chaplain for the Poor House.
Who would object to it? This matter
has been on my mind for some time
We do not know but what one OF ours
may come 10 the same place, aud our
poor have not as good treatment as
criminals. The Superintendent now
does his duty, aud the poor cannot
nraise him enough." W.
A subject TO which our correspon-
dent calls public attention is important.
We eau not believe that plries from
the Poor House have been buried with
out The usual christian ceremonies. 1t
is probable that there is some mistake
about this. From personal o5serva-
ton and from remarks made BY the in-
mates of the Poor House, we are as
sured that the poor are kindly treated
by the Superintendent aud his family.
We have been of the opinion tor year
that the general policy OF managing
the poor house is not good. There has
been disposition 10 keep these un or
Inmates as cheaplY as possible, aud we
have thought that at times there Was
too much economy.
Shenandoah is a wealthy county,
she has a fine large farm given tor the
support Of the poor, and she can vel!
afford to give them a good, aud we
may say, attractive home. The house
should be supplied with every comfort
which the old need or erjpy. The
TODD should be abundant and suited to
to their wants. The Superlnteadency
should not depend upon the success OF
apv party. A man who has the neces'
sary business qualification and will
take good care of the interests OF the
country and those Of the poor, should
not be removed upon account OF his
political opinions. The interests OF
these poor !people are too great to be
made the spolls OF political partlsans.
We have heard no complaint about
the present management. We believe
that it is good, and that the poor are
kindly treatsd.

THE MUTUAL LIFE OF NEW YORK.
However interesting the annual state
ment of other life companies may be,
none of them can compare 10 impor-
lance with the reports presented BY the
Mutual Life Insurance Company oil
New York. 1t IS the largest of all COM
panies, has a large body OF policy
holders, greater assets, and each year
receives and disburses more money
than any other similar institution in
the world. How it obtained so firm a
hold upon public confidence, and why
Il retains that confidence, are questions
easily answered. 1t combines liberali-
ty with safety, and always keeps its
pledges. 1t never INDUCES in illegiti-
mate methods to attract policy holders.

lished in another column, elbows that
it has slOl, l4S 24s. 25 assets, a surplus
of over sl2,OOO,OOO, more than sS67,-
