D. B. Henderton, speaker of the House of Representatives, made one of the principal addresses at a Republican meeting in Manchester, la., the other night. He said in part: “I never was a firmer believer in the doctrine of protection than I am today. After three months spent this summer in several of the countries of Europe I am only strengthened in my convictions. No one policy has done so much for the development of our country, for the elevation of labor on the farm and in the shop, than this

great policy. Some are urging a revision of the tariff. I am not now prepared to say whether the situation warrants revision or not at this time, but if revision is entered on I feel as did our lamented President when he gave out the splendid utterances at Buffalo, that any action taken ‘must not interrupt our home productions.’ As in the past, the Republican party will undoubtedly make such revision of the tariff as is needed ■when the necessity and the duty becomes plain.”

The Continental Fire Insurance Co. has a Cash Capital of One Million of Dollars, Cash Assetts of over TEN MILLIONS OF DOLLARS, a reserve for the security of insurance in force amounting to over 3F*our Millions of Dollars. It has paid Losses to date amounting to the large sum of over Forty-Three Million Dollars. It conducts its business under the provisions of the Safety Fund Law of the state of New York, and has in the two safety funds Twelve Hundred Thousand Dollars. In the great Chicago fir ed year 1871, it paid in cash, losses amounting to nearly two millions of dollars, and-so strong were its reserves that it did this without impairing its Capital, Thirteen months later, it paid in consequence of the large fire in the city of Boston nearly Three-quarters of a Million Dollars. Such facts as these should recommend the Company to all having property to insure. Why should you select a weak company when you can just as well seleot a strong one, which hag been tried by passing through conflagrations in consequence of which one hundred oompames railed? The best is the cheapest. BRUNER A RANDLE, Forsyth) Bl ock, Room 7.
