Jim Fisk, whom a writer in the West minister Review , has so very cleverly re viewed, and pronounced his miud "extraor dinarily fertile in ideas and expedients— while ins conversation was tilled with unu- al imaacs and strange forms of speech," aaionu many other apt hits, never hit a more happy and appropriate nail on the head than lie did when he cropped the ears of “our noble President — Ulyses the first, and turned him loose on the world as "the National Hug.'’ This characteristic not only befits him ill his public and official acts, but it is still more appropriately becoming in his private and personal conduct and mannert. If in the selfish greed of bribery, gold, horses, houses and lands, he evinced a hog ish trait, that trait was still lurther devel oped in his uttjr lack of dignity of charac ter his gross ignorance of the proprieties of life, and bis indecent disregard of the refined sens! ilities of the people, and the respect of public opiuiou as to deliberately and leisurely enter a church—the house ol God—filled with worshipers, ou a Sabbath morning, and walk down the entire leng'h of the aisle with his bat on his head, and a huge cigar in his mouth. Such a creature, would be called a heath en hog, and yet this fellow Grant was re eently guilty of such a monstrous breech of decency. At the Methodist Church in Washington he habitually enters and tra verses the lisle without removing his hat, and hegishly puffing his cigar. And Fisk was right when he called him the National Hog.

We are glad to learn that Col J. C. Yei- j sor of this city has received aud accepted the agency ot Nonh Western Georgia for the Northwestern Mulua; Life Insurance Company. The Company is substantial and undoubtedly one of the best managed in the country. The standard ol reserve here tofore adopted of 41 and ;> pe** cent, be* iDg of questionable safely this c mipany de termined to make assurance doubly sure, aad instead ol dcclariug this year as it could have done, an unusually large dividend took about 1 million of its surplu- and ad ded to the reserve of each of it- policies so as to make them good even if the inter est of the hind should 50 years lienee come down to 4 per cert. By this sale this company keeps 1-10 more money loaned out corresponding at the high rate ot 10 per cent interest, secured on real estate than most companies. 1-5 more than is re quired by the New \ork standard.

They say The most conspicuous financial institution of the west is the Morthicmtcm Mutual Life Insurance Company. 11 I lie short space of 11 years it has become one of the largest and strongest companies in the nation, and is au institution of which the Northwest may justly feel proud.

It paid in death claims for the same vear 8433,442,S9 and in dividends S321.229.9J while its mortality was less than 3-4 ofthe estimated average ol American Insurance! Its ass ts July 1st., 1870 was 8,000,000, at n. s n e over nine million. This Company is purely n.u uah every policy holder gets all his money earns, there is no stock holders to eat up the lion’s share of its yearly profits. Its rapid growth is accounted lor, from the safety of its risks aud the small average of its mortality and because it can and does loan most of its unusually large reserve for 10 per cent iutere.-t—that being the legal interest of of the Northwest 6 and 7 per cent only is the legal interest of the ca-teru ni Northern States.
