The Pony Express.

The "pony express" was established
in April, 1860. 1t was part of mail
line between New York and San Fran
cisco by way of st. Joseph (Mo. and
Sacramento. Between the two last
named places the distance was trav-
ersed by fleet horsemen, each of whom
went sixty miles. The weight carried
was not to exceed sixty pounds, and
the charge was 50 in gold for each
quarter of an ounce. The riders were
paid 81, 200 month. The distance be-
tween New York and San Francisco by
the aid of this express was made in
fourteen days. The pony express lasted
two years, being given mp when the
telegraph was established. - Inter

WUnited Brethren.v

The origin of the name of this worthy
Christian denomination is said to date
from one of the earliest meetings held
by the founder, Rev. Philip William
Otterbein, in 1766. During a meeting
held at Isaac Longs, in Lancaster
County, at which he was assisted by
Rev. Boehm, the latter delivered re-
markably effective sermon. At its con-
clusion Otterbein arose and embraced
him, exclaiming, ave are brethren. 4"
The first annual conference was held in
Otterbein Chapel in the city of Balti-
more, in 1889, which was the first
church built by the society.

During the Siege.

Washington Republican.
Ihave been asked how the people OF
Richmond managed 10 get foodduring
the closingdays when Confederate cur
rency was SO fearfully deprecated. I
was about to say 'damfino, " but on re-
Election Think | can give an easy solu.
tion OF the matter. And, first, Twill
say that, although the bluebacks were
SO much deprecated, if you only had
enough of them you could purchase
anything you wished, and the volums
ofnotes in circulation was immense. /
recollect that o. fellow from Jefferson
county, who, on some plea or other, was
exempt from service, and who was ex-
ceedingly convivial in his habits, when
ever he wished to make purchases or
visit the saloons orfaro banks, was ac-
customed to be followed by astalwart
negro bearing q large yalise crammed
to the brim with the Confederate
tokens of indebtedness, perhaps a
100000 or so, and he never sbraced
up'' until he had got rid of the entire
pile, and it didn't take him long,
either to do so. Contrary to the
common belief, there was no lack Of
! provisions or d~elicacies In Richmond
at any time during the war, but the
prices, measured by alleged dollars,
were simply stupendous. do not re-
member that there was my actual
suffering among the people, although
food and drink were, OF course, eco
nomicaHy dealt with. Irecollect,als
that there was a bread riot of so large
proportions as to call for the inter-
vention ofthe military; but the wom-
EN-, black and white, WHO were thechief
! participants, were of the lowest class,
and were i~nstigated not by want so.

Gus fact that what are called the low
err classes Jared better, SO far as pro-
visions ereconcerned, than the Office
holders or the weather. classes.
The salaries of the ofliceholders, both
Confederate and State, were grossly
inadequate to provide for their fami-
lies, and the Weather citizen at the
outset Of the warhadinvested, almost
without exception, all their available
means in the 8 per cent. bonds OF the
Confederate Government. Those who
owned slaves by hiring them out OBJ
tanned large returns, for labor was in
great demand; but the trouble vas
that the Confederate authorities con-
scripted all able-bodied negroes as
drivers OF mule teams, laborers onthe
| Notifications, etc, just as they con-
scripted able-bodied whites for servic-
es in the field. and the hire given to
the masters was but a 1.-THE OF what
could have been procuredi in open mar
ket. Talk about Washington being a
city Of clearinghouse and restaur-
ants. Wight was not a circumstanceto
the Confederate Capital. Nearly every
house, and especially OF people OF linn
tied means, was filled with dodgers
and nearly every other house was an
clearinghouse. The poorer whites and
blacks made money hand over fist by
cooking provisions and selling them
from stands on the streets and at the
depots to the huge swarms OF hungry
people who were constantly coming
and going.

The White Mountain forests have
within a few years passed from the
earlier proprietors into the hands Of
spectators, railroad companies, and
other parties, who have no interest in
them beyond the sale Of the timber,

who makes a tour along the railroads
that pass through the notches and
wind around the mountains can see
that serious havoc has been made.

tending assurers.
2d-The Life and Endowment forms
of policy provide for annual cash divi.
dends and a surrender value; are indis.
putable after three years and payable
Immediately after proof of death.
3d-The 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 ut 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-Experience shows that the return
paid in cash on maturing Tontine po-
licies approximates 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.
