JEEEMIAH CROUK.
BY  T. 5. .IRTIIUB.
Jeremiah Crauk considered himself .one ofthe 'upper ten thousand.' And so he was, as far asa brown stone palace in Fiflh Avenue, and the reputation of being worth half a million, were concerned. Everybody who wrote to him put Esquire after his name, but that did not make hira a gentle¬ man by a great deal.
Jeremiah Crouk started in life as a soap and candle manufacturer, in which business he conlinued even after his elevation into 'good society.' At first, the dipping and moulding processes were conducted on a small scale, while a single carl for the col¬ leciion of ashes and oieaginons matter.-proi"- ed quite sufficient to supply the demand for these indispensable articles in the production of either hard or soft soap. But honest in- dnstry, prudence and eodnomj', met, in his case, their reward. Jeremiah prospered in his business, and continued to prosper unlil he became a rich raan.
Industry, prudence and economy are very commendable virlues, though by no means cardinal, virtues. By this remark, do not understand us to disparage industry, prudence and economy ; they are virtues that all men should practice ; but while these are prac¬ ticed, weightier things should not not be. as. alas! they, are at presenl, almost entirely neglected. We grow.' rich in this world's goods, but poor in the heart's better riches. Their bodies they lift above their fellows, while their minds sink, too often, below in¬ stead of maintaining the level with which they set out m life. This a melancholy but undeniable fact.
In the case of Jermiah, as his coffers be¬ gan to fill up, he began to think himself a bet¬ ter man. He had always maintained that he was asgood as any. nabob in the land, but now he began to think himself something better than men who stood at the level upon which he stood a few years before, -ind as money kept pouring in, his self estimation kept rising.
The wife of Jeremiah Crouk was a plain, sensible woman. She loi'ed her children well enough to find, in the care of them, suf¬ ficient to do to keep her mind healthily em¬ ployed; she was not therefore, much trou¬ bled with newly-acquired ideas of self im¬ portance. The growing consequence of her husband had some trouble, at times, to carry such an appendage as a sensible wife with it. The two-oldest daughters, Amanda and Margaret, were only a little way in their " teens' when their father's ideas in regard to things of a personal and family natnre be¬ gan to be somewhat e.xpensive. He became all at once concerned about the best schools, and had them removed from a seminary at v.'hich they were most carefully instructed in all the useful and ornamental branches of a young lady's education, and sent to a ' better' institution—that is, one at which were congregated the children of fashiona¬ ble people. Neither Amanda nor Margaret liked the change; "nor were they benefitted by it. Amanda, especially, soon began to acquire notions a little different from what she had been in the habit of maintaining, and to consider the fact of her father's being ricli as giving her consequence. Margaret, who was more like her mollier. and, therefore, less apt to have her head turned witli what she saw and heard in the new world into which this change had introduced her ; but even she took an unnatural growth in this sickly atmosphere—pot so much, however as to produce a very apparent moral distor¬ tion. Even after sbe had completed her ed¬ ucation, she remained a very sensible girl— vulgarly so, in some respects, according to the judgment of her more fashionable ac¬ quaintances.
About the time these young ladies were ready to come out, their father had fiuif heil his splendid residence in Fifth Avenue, and was ready to take his place among the up¬ per ten thousand. He had built a large manufactory away up on the Island, so ihat that the odor of his soap works might not taint the city atmosphere or remind people that he was but a soap and candle maker af¬ ter all. He had several times thought of giving up his e.xtensive works and engagin. in some new business but something of the prudence of old times remained, and kept him back from committing this folly.
As soon as Mr. Crouk had taken possession of his new home at the Court End of the town, he issued invitations for a large part}', and went to - a thousand dollars' e.xpense to have it all upon the most grand and fashion¬ able scale. For old acquaintance sake, as well as to let them see how large and fash¬ ionable he had grown, Mr. Crouk invited sun¬ dry individuals not fairly entitled lo a.ssociate with the upper ten. Oa the night of the grand affair, much to his mortification, he found himself with but few representatives of the ' ten thousand ' in his magnificent drawing-rooms, aud a full attendance to the man, woman and daughter, of the plebian herd, who were inviied more out of compli¬ ment than anything else. And what added to his chagrin, was the fact that only a email number of those who had not come deigned even to send their ' regrets;' and al¬ so the fact that two or three of the families. after arriving and seeing the wives and daughters of vulgar people therej withdraw without feeling called upon to offer a word of apology.
But Mr. Crouk, who felt hipiself as good as the best, and better than many hundreds of thousands around him, was not be killed off in this way. He was one of the ' upper ten' and no mistake, and they were bound to acknowledge him—and so they did, in the end. Money and style were the passports, and he soon made his peers feel that his claims were not to be lightly esteemed.
In this struggle o[_ Jeremiah Ciouk ior a place in the ranks of the exclusive few, his wife and daughters did not as warmly second him as he could wish, although there waa no opposition. The mother's good sense im¬ pressed itself, as a natural consequence, upon the minds of Amanda and Margaret, and her right views, uttered on all fitting occasions, found an echo in their minds. They saw deep¬ er, even as young girls, than the glittering sur¬ face, and onderstood that true happinesl was rather quiet and unobtrusive than brilliant and imposing in its mien. Wiih the fuU liberty of dressing in the most costly and stylish man¬ ner, they rather snffered their taste to be gui¬ ded by that of their mother, and were on most occasions attractive rather from their want of elaborate ornament than on account of its oppoiite. The conseqaeoce was, that even among the ' upper ten' Amanda and
Margaret.were general favorites. Their title lo [fte place they held being undisputed, no one. of course, could question, forany wanl of .the'usual insignia, the fact that they were of f the e.vclusives ; and, iherefore, that whioh in others \w)uld have been Ihought e.xceetling- iy vulgar, was spontaneoasly acknowledgijd to be charmingly simple and allraolive in them.
But these two strong indications of a low or¬ igin seriously disturbed the father, who was forever complaining about the want of style in the dress of his daughters, and the want of dignity in their manners. What he could do, was always done. He never permitted them lo go lo the opera wilhout a privaie box could be obtained; and when.he could have a word to say about the toilet arrangements, insisted upon a proper use of ornament, especially of rich jewelry. The private box of the opera was not objected lovery strongly by the girls; il was pleasant and comforlable lo be separa¬ ted from the crowd, to be e.xempl from really vulgar contact and the sundry annoyances that all must suffer even in the most lashion¬ able audiences. Slill it was setting them apart in a manner not aliogeiher agreeable to their feelings, and it would have been less so if they had been aware that they were prelly generally known by the theatre-going publio and remarked upon as ' two of the nppor ten.' So much for the posiiion and pretensions of Jeremiah Crouk and family.
Thu two sisters were nol without Iheir ad¬ mirers among Ihe young men of their own circle, as well as some who slood on the out¬ side, yet dared lo cast upon them ambitious eyes. Spile oflheir want of ostentation in dress, and the enlire absence of aristocratic airs, let them appear in company when they would, they soon had a group of admirers about ihem. This facl greally sutprised yonn^ ladies who were conscious of b'eing far moie brilliant, and as they imagined, more highly atlra?tive. But young men have a grealer fancy for looking a little deeper Ihan the oul¬ side when they feel al all inclined to pay se¬ rious attention to young ladies.
Amanda had many wooers, and it was not very long before her heart was won, by a lov¬ er against whom her falher could bring no manner of objection. Asa man, itis pleasant 10 be able lo say that he was worlhy of her hand. Bul the heart of Margarel, to all ap¬ pearances, remained unimpressed, ilthough many attracted by her fortune, her naiive ex¬ cellencies, or bolh, sought aii alliance. The addresses of onej'oungraan in pariicular were encouraged by her father, but Margaret main¬ tained towards him a cold but polite reserve. He was never able to approach her near enough to ask the all imporlant question.
All at once, and withoul anv apparent cause for so doing, Margaret assumed a still more simple style of dress. At home and abroad, in pubhc places or in private assemblies, she appeared with scarcely an ornamenl on her person. Every article of jewelry was laid aiiide, and all rich or attractive colors avoided. Her t'ather remonstrated, but in vain ; he stern¬ ly ordered a compliance wilh his wishes, but ¦.vith no beller effect, and he was finally con¬ strained to let the " willful girl" have her own way. To the eyes of most of her friends. Margaret appeared none the loss attractive on account of this change, her extreme neatness and good taste making up for all deficiencies. Inslead ofthe number of her lovers being di¬ minished, they were increased—but her hearl remained untouched.
This singular freak, as it was considered by her family, was conlinued by Margaret for more than a year, during which she withdrew herself from company as muchas il was pos¬ sible for her to do, and appeared lo take more delight in domestic employment than in fash¬ ionable pleasure laking.
Mr. Crouk was troubled ; he saw in this evidences of a vulgar mind, indications of a perverted and groveling tasle.
Thus the time passed on, and Amanda's wedding-day approached. But Margaret re¬ pulsed all suitors—aclually refusing lo see young men who had nt any time mnde even the smallest advances.
Mr. Crouk had a clerk in his establishment named Judkin, whom he had raised from a boy, and in whom he reposed the utmost con¬ fidence. Judson possessed gond abilities, a fine person, easy[manners, and that air of con¬ fidence aboul him which we sometimes seein young men who fee! their own force of char¬ acter, and mean lo make use of ihe ability they possess to force their way in the world againsi all opposirion.
One day, Judkin, with a sober face, came up to where Mr.Crouk was sitting at his desk, and asked the privilege of a few words with him. .
' Certainly, Henry. Sit down. I hope you have not been getting yourself inlo any trou¬ ble'? said Mr. Crouk.
' No, sir, not yet; but I don't know how soon I may be in trouble.' And the young man's face became still more serious.
' What's the matter, Henry, what's the mat lerl'
' I am aboul—or, ralher, was about taking a very important step,' said Judkin, in reply, ' but Ihought il would be belter, perhaps, to consult you before doing so.'
' That's righl—that's righl. Henry. What isil?'
Judkin blushed, and looked interesting and confused.
' Ah, ha! I see now it ns,' said the old gen tleman. ' An affair of the heart—you are thinking about getting married !'
The young man blushed still deeper, and did not deny the allegation.
' Very well, now I understand. I hope she's worthy of you, Henry, that's all Ihave to say.'
'She's worlhy the hand of a prince,' said the young man, vvith enthusiasm.
' So lar then, all is right. And now, what do you want me to do lor youi' inquired Mr. Crouk.
' I want mainly yonr advice, sir,' returned the young man. ' The parents of the young lady will not consent to our union.'
I Why?'
' Because 1 am nothing but a poor young clerk.'
' Indeed !    And pray who are her parents?
' People once no belter off than I am, who have got a liitle up inthe world.'
'And therefore think you not good enough for their daughier.
' Ves, sir, that's the feeling.'
' What's her father's name 1 Do I know hira ?
.'You have some little acquaintance with him. But I think it best not to meniion to you his name, because, if you advise me in the matter, it will be best for you to be able to say, it any appeal is made lo you, that you had not the most remote suspicion that I was pay ing attention lo the young lady.'
' '^1^^'' '^, ^ ^°°'^ Buggeslion.    Very well, you "¦-"me her  father's  name.    And
needn't tell
you want my advice, do you 1
' Yes, sir.'
'Asto whatV
'in the first place, ihen, I will meniion that tha young lady is deeply atlached to me, and says, come what will, she will marry no one else. Already she has refused two or three offers from persons whose circumslances are farbetter thau mine.'   .
' She's a true hearted girl, I should say.'
'Indeed she is,sir; and my happiness de¬ pends upon her becoming my wife.'
' And her parents will not consent V
' It is hopeless to endeavor to remove iheir objections. They set an imaginary value up¬ on their consequence because they have a little more of this world's goods than I possess —not more, however, tban I will have one of these days, if spared—andjvould think them¬ selves disgraced by an alliance with ine.'
' What can you du 1'
'Run away with the daughter,' said the young man, boldly.
' Not always a safe proceeding,' remarked Mr. Crouk, ' and the last lo be adopted.'
' There is no olher chance in my case.'
' Is the daughter willing to go off with youi'
' Perfectly. This being so, onght I not to take the only step left me for obtaining her hand
'I hardly like lo advise you io this coiirse Henry.'
' It I do it, will you consider it a cause for being offended with me 1'
'Certainly not.'
'Her falher, I know, will be dreadfully of¬ fended,' said Judkin, 'and may seek lo pun¬ ish us both by trying lo exciie your anger against me, in order that I may lose my place and means of supporting my wife.'
'Don't give yourself any trouble about that, Henry. But does the young lady understand that you have only the income of a clerk 1'
' Perfectly. I have concealed nothing from her. Still, I cannot but feel a liule anxions on the point I have just mentioned, Her falh¬ er, I am satisfied, will immediately seek lo prejudice you against me, and I am aware that he has influence with you.'
' He has! Well let- him try; 1 am fore¬ warned, and, ihereiore, forearmed. As to marrying the young lady, that, Harry, is your own matter. I will not advise you to do it, nor will I advise you against it. I am perfect¬ ly well satisfied that you know what you are aboul. But lo make you easy on the .subject of any prejudice hkely to be creaied on my mind, 1 will give you my check for a year's salary in advance, wilh all confidence ihal you will render as faiihful service as ever.'
Mr. Crouk turned to his desk and filled up a check.
'Here,' he said, as he handed it lo ihe young mail, ' is a check for fifteen hundred dollars. A mariied man's expenses ate grealer Ihan a single man's. Your salary, insteatl of being a thousand dollars.will be fifteen huniired dol¬ lars, and will be fifteen hundred from to-day.'
Judkin warmly expressed his ihanks, and Mr. Crouk as warmly wished him a favorable issue to his contemplated lunaway adventure.
That evening Maigarel not appearingat the tea-table,.her falher inquired if she were not weli.    Amanda said she had gone out.
' To spend the evening anywhere ?' inquir¬ ed Mr. Crouk.
' No, I think not. If she had iniended doing so, she would have meniioned it lo me,' re¬ plied Amanda.
' She's out late ; it's been dark for an hour,' remarked the falher.
The molher also expressed concern ou ac¬ count of her daughter's absence.
The lea hour wenl by, and yet Margarel did not return. Mr. Crouk began lo feel un¬ easy. The singular interview he had held wilh his clerk suggested the fear ihat some one, hopeless of gaining his consent, might runoff wilh Margarel, as Judkin was about running off wilh the daughier of some one un¬ known 10 him. This fear caused him lo think of Margaret's inexplicable conduci in some things, aud thoughts of this gave a new life lo his fears. As soon as he was alone wilh his wife, he suggested to her what was in his mind, but she irealed it ligh'ly. Still Mr. Crouk fell troubled, and he walked about un¬ easily, listening for the ringing of-the street- door bell; but no bell rang, and no daughier returned. Ten o'clock came, and she was yet absent. Hark ! there is a ring. The waiter goes lo the door. .The parents listen^— the falher with almost breathless inlerest. The door is opened—they hear the sonnd of a man's voice—it is immediately closed again. The waiter returns along the hall alone, opens Ihe parlor door, and hands two letter?, one for Mr. Crouk and one for his wife. We will only give the contents of the former. Il was as follows:—
Dear Sir—Allhough you did not advise me in so many words lo run away wilh the young lady of whom I spoke lo you lo-day, yel the measure mel your approval, and in doing what I have since done, I have acted with a consciousness that I had your enlire sanction, without which I should have hardly felt at lib¬ erty to take so important a step. The sweet girl I have loved so long is mine. I am the happiest of men. I may now tell you the lady's name^it is Margaret Crouk. In a week I will be al my poslagain, Tn the mean- lime, let me beg ol you not to let the falher of the young lady prejudice your mind againsi one who loves her so truly, and who is ready to make every sacrifice in his power to secure his happiness. We do nol e.vpect- soon, if ever, lo be forgiven by him; bul even that real cosl we have calculated. Margarethas long accustomed herself to do wilhout the costly luxuries of ornament and dress, in view of this change in her circumstances. She knows my abilily, and becomes my wife, pre-, pared lo let all her wants and wishes confoini thereio. She has writien to her mother Iter own thoughts and feelings on the occasion.— She will forgive her, I am sure, and I can bul hope that, ihrough her loving influence, the father's heart may be softened lowards his chiid.      Dutifully, I subscribe myself,
'Henry Juuki.n.'
Never was a man more completrily knocked down than was Mr. Jeremiah Crouk by the receipt of this cool but not insulting letter.— That he stormed and even swore for a time, noone will be surprised lohear; but there was no help for him. Margaret was the wife ofhis clerk—yes, ofhis clerk—of the clerk of Jeremiah Crouk, Esq., one of the upper len thousand. Was there no atonement for this disgrace—-no means of wiping it out'! There seemed none! Henry Judkin, the nnknown ; Henry Judkin, his cletk, was now his son-in- law. Poor man ! he paced the floor half of the night, and then went lo bed and went lo sleep.    What else could he dol
On thp third day after the elopement, Jud¬ kin and his young bride were sitting in Iheir private parlor at one of the hotels in Philadel¬ phia. The husband- was looking over a Nevv York paper which he had just obtained.
' Hurrah!' he suddenly exclaimed, jumping up and fairly dancing ahout the room. 'Only just lislen lo Ihis,' and he read :—
'Copartnership Notice.—I have this day associated with me as a partner, Mr.  Heijry Judkin.    Hereafter the business will be con¬ ducted under the name of Crouk & Judkin. 'Jeremiah Cbouk.'
The young man then threw the paper oh the floor, and in the delight and surprise oflhe moment, caught his young bride, who was already weeping tears of joy, in his arms, and hugged and kissed her in a most unromantic way.
At the end of the week they lelurned lo New York. On the whart they found the father's carriage waiting for ihem, and were driven by the strong, fleet horses, in a very short space of time, lo the elegant mansion in Fifth Avenue, where Judkin's senior part¬ ner was waiting to receive him. From a poor clerk he suddenly found himself one of the 'upper ten thousand.' He bears his honors bravely.
All must admire the ingenious manner in which Mr.Crouk staved off the disgrace that was about lo visii his family. The /happy BUgaeslion came while he paced ihe floor of his parlor even until past the hour of midnight, and he acted upon it wilh the least possible delay. The announcement of the marriage and copartnership were almost simnltaneous, and there were few who were aware of ihe fact that Judkin was only his clerk and had married his daughier wilhout his consent.— Sirange Ihings happen sometimes among ihe 'upper ten Ihousand.'

Woman's Rights Convention.—This ccu¬ veniion assembled at Seneca Falls: on the 19th iust. Tho meeting on the firbt day was only accessible to females, who drew up and signed a " Declaration of SentimeniB,''which read as follows:—When in the cciurse ol hu- niau events.il becomes necessary lor one por¬ tion of the family of man lb assume among the people of earth a position different from that wh:cli they have hitherto- occupied, but onelo which the laws of nalure and nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opin¬ ions of mankind requires that they should de¬ clare the causes that impel them-lo sucha course.
We hold Ihese Iruthstobe self-evident— Ihat all men aro created equal—that they are endowed by their Creator with ceitain inali¬ enable rights—that among these aie hfe, lib eny, and the pursuit of happiness--that to secure these righls governments are instituted deriving iheir just powers from the consent of the governed. Wheneverany form of gov¬ ernment becomes destructive of- these ends, ilis the light of Ihose who suffer from il, to refuse allegiance lo it, and to insist upon the institution ofa new government, laying ils fonndalion on such princi/iles, and organizing ils powers in such lorm, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happi¬ ness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that governmenls long established, should not be changed for light and transient causes, and accordingly all experience hath shown that mankind arc more disposed lo sufl'er while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms lo vvhich they are ac¬ customed ; but when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same ohjecl, evinces a design lu reduce them un¬ der absolute despotism, it is their right, their dnty, to ihrow off' such governmenl, and lo provide new guards for their fuiure security. Such has been the patient sufferance of the women under this government, and such is now the necessiiy which conslrains them to demand ihe equal station lo which Ihey^are entitled.
The history of mankind is a histoiy of re¬ pealed injuries and usurpations on the part of man toward woman, having in direct object the establishment of an absolute tyranny over her. To prove this, let facls be submitted to a candid world.
He has never permitted her to exercise her inalienable righls to the elective franchise.
He has compelled her to submit to laws, in the formation of which she has had no voice.
He has withheld from her, rights which are given lo Ihe most ignorant and degraded men —bolh natives and foreigners.
Having deprived her of this first right as a citizen, the elective fianchise, thereby leaving bar wilhout representation in the halls of leg¬ islalion, he has oppressed her on ail sides.
He has made her, if married, in the eye of the law, civilly dead.
He has taken from her all right in property, even lo the wages she earns.
He has made her, morally, an irresponsible being, as she can commit many crimes with impunity, provided they be done in the pre¬ sence of her husband. In the covenant of marriage, she is compelled tn promiiie obedi¬ ence to her husband—he becoming, to all in¬ tents and purposes, her master—the law giv¬ ing him power lo deprive her of her liberty, and to adminisler chastisement.
He has so framed the laws of divorce as lo what shall be proper causes of divorce, in case of separation lo whom the guardianship of the children shall bo given, as-to be wholly unjust and regardless of the happiness of woman— ihe iaw ill all case- going upon the false sup¬ position ofthe supremacy ot man, and giving all power into his hands.
After depriving herof all rights as a mai- ried woman, if single and the owner of prop¬ erty, he has taxed her lo support a govern¬ ment which recognizes her only when her properly can be made profitable to it.
He has monopolized nearly all the means of profitable employment, and from Ihose she is perniiued lo follow, she receives but a.scan- ty remuneration.
He closes against her all the avenues to wealth and distinction which he considers most honorable to himself. As a teacher of iheology, medicine or law, she is not known.
Ho has denied her the facilities for obtain¬ ing a Ihorough education—all colleges being closed ag.iinsl her.
He allows her in church as well as slale but a subordinate position, claiming apostolic aulhority for her exclusion from the ministry and, wilh sorae exceptions, frora any public participation in the affair,=iof the^chuich.
He has creaied a false public'sentiment by giving lo the woild a different code of morals for raen and women, by which moral delin¬ quencies which exclude women from society are not only tolerated but deemed of little ac¬ count in man.
He has usurped the prerogalive of Jehovah himself, claiming it as his right to assign for her a sphere of aciion, when Ihat belongs to her conscience and her God.
He has endeavoured, in everyway that he could lo deslroy her confidence in her own powers, to lessen her self-re.spect and lo mako her willing lo lead a dependent and ab¬ ject life.
Now ill view of the entire disfranchismenl of one half the people of thiscountry, their so¬ cial and religious degradalion ; in view ot the unjust laws'above mentioned, oppressed and fraudulently deprived of their most sacred righls, we insist that they have immediate ad¬ mission to all Ihe righls and privileges which belong lo them as citizens of these Uniied States.
In entering upon the great work before us we anticipate no small amount of misconcep¬ tion, misrepresenlalion, and ridicule, but we shall use every inslruraentalily wiihin onr power lo efl'ect onr object. We shall employ agents, circulale tracts, petition the state and national legislatures, and endeavor to enlist the pulpit and the press in nur behalf. VVe hope this convention will be followed by a se¬ ries of conventions embracing every part ol the conntry.
Firmly relying upon the the final triumph of the Right of the True, we do this day affix our signatures lo ihis declaration.
More than one hundred names were subscri¬ bed lo Ihis insirument.
<My lad,' said a lady to .a boy caiTy- ing any empty mail bag, 'are you a mail boy.?'
'You don't think I'se a female boy does ye ?' -
There is as much truth as poetry in the foUowing :
f f every pain and care we feel, Could burn upon our brow,
How many hearts would move to heal. That strive to crush us now.

A PROFILE cutter called at the house of a-wag, and inquired if he wanted a profile taken. "Yes,I want yours taken from my door," was  the reply.
The news by ihe America is of deep inter¬ est. The crisis in Ireland had arrived, and ere this the government and the people have mel in bloody contest.
Mad Buj.l.—Week before last, a Bull be¬ longing lo the widow Myers, in Upper SaJforg townahip, Montgomery county, went ravin.p mad with hydrophobia. After much diSical- ty he was secared aad killed.
AU persons from eighteen to sixty five years of age, by paying the yearly sums as specified in the table, may be insured a weekly allowance of three, FOUR, FIVE, SIX. EIGHT OF TEN doixarh in case of sickness or accident, which prevenis them from ai¬ iending to their ordinary business. Thus, a person belween eighteen and thirty-Jive insuring ior one year and paying $4, will receive S3 per week; for 85,25, S4 per week ; for 86,56, S5 per week ; for S7,00, S6 per week; forSiO,35, S8 per week ; and for Si2,90, SlO per week. He may be insured for one, two, three or Jive years, by paying ihe rates yearly, as stated in the table ; and by taking a poli¬ cy, say for five years, should he become permanent¬ ly disabled, or be afflicted with lingering sickness, atill by paying the yearly premiums, the company is bound for the whole five years ; and if the allow¬ ance he $10 per week, il would amount, in one year to $520; m two years to $1040; in three years to S20fiO, and in five yeara to S^COO. In case of sickness or disability of any kind, the weekly al¬ lowance commencea immediately after insurance is effected ; and there is nothing more to pay during the year, nor is there any attendance at meetings, or other duty required. Besides, this being a m«- tiial insurance company, a large share ofthe profits are to be annually divided among the insured in pro¬ portion lo the amounts paid by them. Ii is the ex¬ penses of sickness, ihc doctor's bill, &.C., and alao thc immediate warns ofthe family, that isthus with a certainty provided for. To men of business, and particularly to all clerks, mechanics, manufacturers, &c., this company holds out great inducements. OJice 59South Seventh Street, above Walnut, Fhila.
