STATEMENT.

THE undersigned, a Committee of Di-
l. rcctors of the Equitable Life AS.
surance Society of the United States,
appointed to formulate the views of the
Board on the advantages offered by the
Society to the public, report
1st-The Society issues all the approx
ed forms of assurance, including Ordi.
nary Life, Endowment and Tontinc po-
licies. 1t is immateral to the Directors
which form of policy is taken by in
tending assurers.
2d-The Life and Endowment forms
of policy provide for annual cash divi.
dends and surrender value; are indis-
putable after three years and payable
Immediately after proof of death.
3d-Thc premiums on Tontine po-
Icy are the same as on the Ordinary
Life, but, while the latter is only pay.
able in the event of death, the holder of
the Tontine policy has the right to draw
the whole of the reserve and the accu.
mulated profits IN cash at the end of
stated period; thus, during his own life
time, after his producing years are past,
he can, without any larger premium
than on an ordinary policy, secure these
greater advantages.
4th-EXperiencc shows that the return
licies approximate to or exceeds the
amount of premiums paid by policy
holders, so that the average cost of the
assurance will be only about the interest
on the premiums.
5th-Tontine policies, like Others, are
paid in full in the event of death at any
time during the term of the policy, and
are incontestable after three years, and
payable Immediately after due proof of
death.
6th-EXperience shows that the NOR.
tality is lower among Tontine policy.
holders, as the better lives seek this
kind of assurances, which is consider
able source of profit.
7th-TOntine policies will be made
non-forfeitable under the laws of the
State, if so desired at the time the as.
sUrancc is effected.
8th-The Tontine system is fair and
just; its accounts are accurately kept,
separate from all other business; the
funds judiciously invested and improv-
ed, and the accumulated profits faith
fully guarded and properly appoltioned.
0th-The Society has since its Organi-
cation transacted larger amount of
new business than any other company,
while its new business for the first half
of the present year is $1,750,00O larger
than that of the first half of 1884. 1t
has Assets of $G0,0oO,OOO; over $l4 OOO,-
600 of Surplus, and its ratio of Surplus
TO Liability is greater than that of any
other company.

HAS Oh hand and for sale various

across the keel. The frames are closer
together, and the boats are therefore
lighter and less liable to bilge in, than
boats of any other lu'ld. Each side

stem TO stern, and is consequently not
liable to strain, there being no midship

Beware, the Ides OfMarch

1t looks, at the lately gone
March, as if the poetic discoverer
of an early Spring bird or flower
would not be heard from. There
were, indeed, a few day in the early
part OF the month that had about
them a fine, moist geniality, which
produced in man, beast, bird and
bud a feeling that Spring had start
ed on its way NOrth-a Spring of
that kind of which the poet Thorn
sou applied the word gentle and
described as ethereal mildness.'
This kind of gentle deception con.
tinued but a little while, and then
the wind took turn and brought
from the North successive 'nips''
which prove the fallacy of the be-
lief in the fiattering tale told by
the meek and mealymouthed days
ofan earlierdate. AS a iual source
of conviction that Winter had not
really packed up and checked his
baggage to the polar regions, he
left reminders in the shape OF
snow.falls before which the delicate
Spring fabrics in the store windows
shivered and lost even the value
set forth in the greatly reduced
prices advertised. In his waning
days March willattempt much, and
accomplish a great deal. Not affiu-
ent in sunshine, his breath is too
full of the killing North and East
to be trusted by tender breasts and
throat. Let such beware! March
was ever a spendthrift, and there
fore borrower; and to crafty his
inherent passion he will borrow
from April fhe can, were it only
to wreak his spite on the humanity
bywhom he is generally condemned.
In fact, the most lamb-like aspect
Of THE dying March has been always
as much of a disguise as fact. He
lisa lion still, though in a lambs
skin, and tender mothers aud in-
valid men and women should keep
a detectives eye upon his illusive
conduct. Distrust the smiles of
March as the skeleton grin Of death:
one is close behind be other.

They still DIssembIe.

Funderism under its assumed
name Of democracy has just con-
cluded its last effort to destroy the
sovereignty of a state. We use
the word sovereignty in the sense
in which eight of the nine judges
of the present L. S. Supreme Court
employed it in rendering their
decision in favor of Virginia as a
state when they passed upon the
"Riddleberger bill a year ago.
Notwithstanding the promises
of bourbonism, made last fall, that
they had abandoned funderism, we
cannot fail to see that suit after
suit is pressed, and every unfair
means which some paid attorneys
and agents are capable Of adopting
appear to elect bourbon and funder
approval however suppressed the
hurrah.
Virginians would have been
amazed to see that nearly all the
prominent funder orators and edi-
tors we're in that high court almost
every hour that their side of the
case was being presented by a hired
attorney who characterized the APP
prOvers of the " Riddleberger" bill
as "rOuges."
Doubtless he was employed to
do just this thing. Brave q bOur-
bonism,-the "best people,, who
had been persuaded by the APP
plication of the peoples ballot
box cOwhide to run away from
invective and abuse, wanted just
such a man as Swayne to call men
"rogues.' Swayne is supposed to
be the son of the late Justice ofthe
same name and for this he is en-
ployed. In addition, they pur-
chased the widow Evarts of New
York, notorious for his words,
lis republican politics and
his total responsibility to any
person or party whom he may as
sail or insult. He has lived in,
and breathed only, that atmosphere
of righteousness assumed without
possession, to be great among the
small and valued at little among
real men. He could also say vul-
gar and wordy and untrue things
for pay) against the very princi-
pies he processes to hold.
We are gratified to state to our
readers that the State Of Virginia
was ably represented by ATTY
Gcnl. Blair, by tho just then APP
pointed Atty. Gcnl. of the U. s.
Garland, and by Mr.. r. T. Merrick.
1.-THE court shall hold, as we
hope, and believe. it will, that the
funder tAx-bill of tho give ses-
sion's " legislature does not "im-
pair .he obligation of a contract"
the readjustment measures will
hold good to the end.
In the meantime we have moth
ing to fear but bourbon perfdy.

France and China.

Right on the heels of pacific
rumors which led to the hope that
France and China might have the
good sense and good fortune to adj
lust their differenccsand cease fight
ing comes the news Of n very serious
reverseto the French arms in Ton
quin, of the woundiug of Gen. Ne
grier, the evacuation Of Langson,
and an appeal from Gen. Briere
De EIsle for achievements. Nat
urally, these evil tidings have Great
ed intence excitement in Paris, and
quite as naturally, the first thought
of the severely logical French mind
is that the Ferry Government must
be overthrOwn and the task of sett-
ing matters right again in TOnQuin
be intrusted to a new and inexperl-
enced Ministry. One TACT OF no
little value to the French has been
conclusively settled. The disaster
of Langson shows that the Chinese
can fight, and can win battles even
against the highly civilized and
valorous invaders OF the territory
they claim to control. If France
has a settled purpose in this Ton
quin enterprise the world will
speedily know oft, for she must
either retire ingloriouSly before the
Chinese army now threatening to
inflict further damage on her armies
or she must at once send to the
East large rein(orcements and make
a serious and costly war of what
has hither to been looked upon as
a fOray.

Few Of the so-called principal APP
poiutments made by the President
have been generally acceptable to
his nearest friends. That of Man
ming was the first cause of COM
plant because he was reputed to
be high up in the Tweed ring, and
there made the money which in
time made him a banker. Then
Manning appointed Higgins his
chief. Against Higgins it is alleg-
eli that ho was a ballot-box suffer
in BALTIC, and, though a so-called
ex.Confederate, his service IN the
South consisted in running a faro
bank in Richmond. Higgins may
have thought it among the best
things to do with Confederate mon
ey was TO lose it at faro-banks and
sleep ii of, rather than to deposit
it in legalized institutions to be lost
there and srieved over for weeks.
Higgins may not have ranked
among the best, nor could he have
been the very worst Marylander
who ran the blockade.
Bat the appointment of Pearson,
the republican incumbent OF the
New York post Office causes shrieks
to rent the air. The Mayor of New
York city asked for it and it was
done, aud this is accepted as proof
of the allegations Of trade between
the county, the mugwump anil
Cleveland. SO be it. IL has been
done. We can only wait to Sc
whether certain democratic sena-
tors are as brave as they threaten.
If they oppose the confirmation OF
this nomination they will show more
courage than they are accredited
with.

A contemporary makes an edi-
torial of the following personal
paragraph from the pen of the
bribe agent who tried, and partially
succeeded in purchasing a Vir'
ginia legislature to sell the State
aud her people to foreign syndi'
Gates:
"The unkindest cut Of all. The
Providence, Rhode Island JurRat
says: The Philadelphia Times says
that Senator Riddleberger has
water on the brain. The symptoms
would indicate that the diagnosis
is at fault in both Of its conditions
This same paper contains two
other paragraphs which would
indicate that the writer's had
Riddleberger on the brain; but
this proposition is preposlerous,
when we reflect that the writer's
are but the idiotic offspring ofinter-
married relatives, filling positions
on a paper that requires no brains.
Riddleberger reads criticism OF
his public acts with care and
pleasure, no mattor how caustic.
Hence the other paragraphs re-
ferred to cannot be considered by
him as Objectionable. But the
paragraph quoted is falsehood by
innuendo promulgated by a llbeller
and made editorial matter of by
defamers who prefer the scattered
garbage of Mcclure to the whole
some diet Of gentlemen.
Were we as ready to prostitute
the columns Of this paper, we
might give a column that would
satiate even the maws of scandal
photographers, by brief recitals Of
forced marriages, premature births,
clipping husbands, absconding
wives and various and sundry dime
novel literature that would be re-
freshing and profitable to some
editorial minds. 1t would be prof.
table in teaching a proper re-
spect for other people.
