ROPE.-Between New York and Eu? rope but one American line of steam? ships now plies, that betweeen New York and Havre, upon which the steamships Arago and Fulton are running. But this line does not pay, and the owners of these steamers are seriously considering tho policy of | abandoning the business and selling them. When these vessels first sail? ed to Europe in 1856, they made thc trip generally in twelvo d-.ys and were quito popular, but the rival English lines have since built faster vessels, and these have been almost deserted. It really seems that the last American line between New York, and Europe is to be abandoned, and the fact is traceable to the reason mentioned above. Fire Crackers.

HOPE. _ JETNA LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, Annual Income over $3,250,000! 1,300 policies issued, and receipts over $300,000 last month. Over 13,000 policies issued the past year-the largest number ever issued in a single year by any Life Insur? ance Company in theUnited States. In the year ending November 1, 1SG5, its losses were fewer than those of any other Company, in proportion to the number of policies. (See Eleventh Annual Report of Massa? chusetts Iusurauee Commissioners, page 57.) In proportion to income, its per centage of expenditure was LQTvER than that of any other Company. (See New York Insurance Report, 1S0G.) Its success in doing the LARGEST BUSINESS with the FEWEST LOSSES and LEAST EXPENDI? TURE, enables it to .pay its policy? holders an ANNUAL DIVIDEND of FIFTY PER CENT., with as good a ! prospect of increasing it as any other Company. The unparalleled success of the ?Etna can only be accounted for by its admirable plan of transacting its business to suit the wants of the peo? ple, giving'them policies at actual cost, embracing NEW and IMPOR? TANT FEATURES, which secure to them nil the nd vantages that can bc derived from a policy of Life Insur? ance. All who -wish to avail themselves of the benefits of Life Insurance, should examine the ^Etna's plans for the same by calling upon any of its agents at their place of business. E. A. BULKELEY.

Dec ll ly THIRTY LINES OF C O 31 M O X SEXSE.-Reader, having glanced over the ! editorials and the news in this journal,you j turn to the advertisements, saying to your- j self, "These are published by tito writers to servo their own interests." Perhaps so. But it is no less true that it concerns your ? interests lo read these thirty lines.. If you [ are healthy,'it is presumed you wish to continue so. If sick, of course you desire' to be relieved. In cither case, it is impor? tant to yon to It ito w that HOSTETTER'S BITTERS are the safest, surest and best tonic and alterativo ever advertised in any country. This is a period of the year when the strongest need an invigcrant, for tho oppressive heat drains the system of strength laster than the most potent and vigorous organization can recruit it. There- ! fore, as a preservative of health-as a pro? tection against the devitalizing action of heat and tho malaria it produces-you should sustain the good constitution and sound stamina with which nature has blessed you with this pei rless Vegetable Tonic. . It can scarcely bc necessary to urge upon tho weak and ailing the importance of ac? quiring by safe means the strength which unassisted nature donica them. All who are thus circumstanced aro invited to give thc Bitters a trial. Before they have taken tho elixir three days, in conformity with the directions, they will acknowledge with gratitude its genial operation. They will rind that it imparts mental aa well as nerv? ous energy, and regulates all the internal functions admirably. This is the expe? rience of tho debilitated and depressed, and in making these statements the pro? prietors only echo the language of innu? merable testimonials.
