failure of Charles E. Hosford has

been the talk of the town this week. Mr. Hosford is now in Utah, where he has liecn for several weeks, attending to his mining interests. Until his return, or he has an opportunity to be heard, comment would lie very improper. We understand that his indebtedness amounts to about $50,000. He has made an nsojgnment of his property to Sidney B. ., Davis, fortho benefit of his ,creditors.

Mr. Hosford, during his long residence in this city, has maintained a reputation for the strictest commercial Integrity, hna tx*n the trusted agent of clients and capitalists, and we have faith to believe that he will bo able to put in more favorable lightsome transactions that now have a Imd light.

take pleasure in calling the attention of our readers to the card of Samuel Royse, Ksq., in to-day's Mail. The agency of two such companies as the Insurance Company of North America, and the Pennsylvania Fire, of Philadelphia, is well worth having, and our wide-awake friends, Messrs. Riddle, Hamilton A I-o., can be congratulated on getting them.

This llrm has built up a very largo business by making Insurance a specialty, and by looking carefully after the interest of their patrons. They probably have now the largest agency in the State. Any of our friends needing Insurance I will do well to call on them before hav1 lug it placed, as they can give you good indemnity at fair rates, either Fire, Life, or Accident.
