In our new pooeoseieno, th* Philip** pines, the priests charge S3O In ad vance to perform a marriage ceremony, $25 for a baptismal fee, S6O to-offleiste at a funeral, and when a man builds a bouse ho must pay $lO for having the chimney blessed. It ie no wonder that the natives are in rebellion three thirds of the time in ouch a God for saken land. The Now York Herald says: The decision of the president to insist upon the speedy evacuation of both Cuba and Porto Bioo by the Spanish troops is to be commended. Until Spanish forces are withdrawn and the United States assumes control, these islands must necessarily be somewhat unset tled, and the sooner the United States takes formal possession the quicker prosperity will return. The revolting spectacle nowjareient ed in North Carolina of brutal negiO domination in the black counties of thatetate is an example of the results which inevitably follow discord and division in the Democratic ranks. The horrors of negro supremacy will doubtless be sufficient to bring the dissatisfied Populist and Palmerits elements back into the fold of the only white man's party and thus achieve the redemption of the grand “Old North State."—MontgomeryChronlcle. Blakely Observer: Robt. B. Cramer throws a bouquet at the Georgia editor in the following words: "The best newspaper men in the world are the editor* of Georgia newspapers, because no ordinary man could make a liveli hood with a type and press in this stale. To keep bis bead above water, a Georgia editor has to reach the fur thereat limit ol resourceful genius, and when you meet one of them who gets his meals regularly it is safe to put him down as a greater man than the President. People at the north have a pet the ory that the Southern climate ie en ervating and that we are not a busi ness or a working people down here. Yet in this war with Spain the three men who conspicuously kept their months shut, refrained from grand stand play., sod attended to their busi ness are Joe Wheeler, Fitshugh Lee and Hobson Wheeler carried his army over Ban Juan heights; Lee has bis command in better shape than any other command iu the country and Hobson look the Merrimac and sank her, has raised and saved one Spanish warship and hae gone to work on another.

It has always held the record securely, but the claimpaid by ny upon a policy issued to Mr. Mark Banks, of Oonnwitacut, th* particulars of which are given here, shows that THE MUTUAL LIFE has m this i stance eclipsed all previous dividend results: no Mr. Banks was insured for "...

He did not utilise any portion of the divi dends in payment of premiums, but permitted the Company to invest these for his benefit. Here are the particulars: Policy No. 1,233. Issued March 5,1845.

Mr. Mark Banks was the treasurer and cashier of the Greenwich Savings Bank, and died at the good old age of ninety-four. He appreciated the power of compound interest, and his wisdom is exemplified by the result oi his method of investment —a result that has never been equalled by a policy holder in any other company in the world.
