VOLUME 27. LIFE ASSURANCE, THEORIES THSTED THE PANIC TRUET 1. During the last three months business men have been compelled to give all their time and energy to save their business from ruin, 2. Thisproves that the value of money invested in commercial pursuits is, to a great degree, con- tingeut upon the life of its posses- sor. Your estate, as a whole, de- prived of your management, must shrink in value from the moment of your dcath. 3. Since, therefore, your busi- ness, and all your investments, will be of less value to-morrow if you are dead, than to-day while you are living, it is evident that your life should be fully insured. The hardness of the times, instead of furnishing an cxcuse for delay, should add weight to the argu- ments in {favor of immediate insur- ance, tor if'it is hard for YOU to pay a premium NOW, how much harder would it be for your family to support themselves, in these times, if' you were dead. 4. Discharge at once this duty which YOU KNOW you owe to your family. The fecling that your family is provided for, no matter what may happen, will af- ford you comfort, which an equal amount of moncy Iaid out in any other way could not purchase, This question claims your consideration NOW. Weigh it carefully, and decide before the close of the year what action you will take. Before insur- ing, examine the EQUITA- BLE'S TONTINE SAVINGS FUND POLICY, which offers advantages secured by no other plon of insurance.

Tho opinion seems faot gaining ground that the recent quiet bas been but a full in the storm, and that it will break forth ore long in war. The State Dopurt- ment hasguarded jealously allthat it has received from abroad slnco the signing of the protocol, and that circumstanco is takon ns pretty good avidenco of the oxistonco of a state of things not promising for peace, as Mr. Fish Las alwuys herotofore appeared only too willing to publish anything that would indicate a peaceful ter- mination of tho diliculty, Notwithstanding ail tlus, thero ia reason to beliove that an adjust- ment gatisfactory to our people will zoon bo bad. WORK OF TIIE DRITISH GOVERNMENT, The Dritieh Government has been working quietly in tho cases of alleged British subjects who woro taken on the Virginius and killed by Burriol, and is convincod that a wrong has boon done hor whick sho only awniia opportunity to avenge. England is now watching the chouces of o warbetweeu the two Ropublica, If itcomes, sho will socuro ker onds without lerself boing T el involved? if it'does not coms, and she -is compelled to take tho initintive, the opportunity then is ours, THE DILEMMA PRESENTED TO BPAIN. The atrugglo iu which the Castelor Govorn- ment iy engaged is n terriblo one, and has coms to bo oue to presorve its own existonco. It cannot live without making reparation to Great Britaiu and carrying out the protocol which Fish and Polodrew up, and to which it has agreed ; and thoro Is, unfortunately, grave ronnon to holicve that it cannot live if it does procecd to decisive measures, To answer theso demands by a declaration of war botween Spain and Great Brituin would bo n popular recourse in Spnin, and would speedily unite all factions in tavor of the Castelar Republic. CONFIDENCE OF THE ANNESATIONISTS, Tor thone and other reasons, tho ndvocates of annexation havo of late grown doubly confident, oud profoss tosee mnot oaly that their scheme will bo realizod at an early day, but thai tho ac- quisition of the islnnd will be accomplished with but littlo cost of blood or treasuro to the United States, and will bring us out of tho whole difi- culty with profit and honor, BHALLITDE GREAT BRITAIN OR THEUNITEDSTATES 7 As the matter now stands, the Govornmont of Great Britain and that of the United States are each manouvering to keop ont of war, knowing that, without much donbt, one must becomo in- volved; and tho ono which monnges to kesp at poace will profit by it, whilo the ono thak goos to war must loso by it. For the reason that tho United States is tho natural ally of the sister Ropublie, and beeauso Grent Britain {8 an enomy agnivst which sl Spain wil unito, the balauco "is i our favor,—so inuch tio that Iish is perfoctly confldent that tho game is iu lus own bands, OUR FRIENDS IN CUBA Jovellar has not resigued, and probably wilt not do so. ‘Cho mnss of the peoplo m Caba are our frionds.

'The statement, as published to-day, that there wan not one United States naval vessol at Invuna yestorday, is accounted for by tho fact that it wes part ol tho arcangeraent batwecn Secrotary Fish and the Spanish Milster that thoro skould be NO BTIOW OF MENACE whatover on our part, which conld not fail {o in- orease the excitoment at Havauw aud sluewhore in Cubn, whils 1ho plan of reloano was intondod to bo offected yesterday in the quictent mannor poseibly, Inquiries hava beon mado at tho Navy Dopart- ment concerning tho United Hrutes stemaor Kansag, which sailed for Santizgo do Cuba about the middle of lust wmonth, Not tho shyghiest unenninons is felt by old naval ofticors vejgavling that vessol.
