SALE OF THE MARQUIS OF WATERFORD'S T[TATES nt IBELAND.-The Marquis of a tor for d's estates in Ireland were re? cently uo\d for $1,500,000. They were divided into 121 lots, and the remarka? ble featnre of the sale was that the lots were bought by 'tenants, some of whom paid at the rate of fifty, others forty, and none less than thirty years time. The great carse of Ireland, and the most fraitfnl sonree of oppression and mis rale, bas always been that the tillers of thG soil were noi the holders of it. Yost estates have been handed down from generation to generation of the gentry land that, subdivided, might have been successfully cultivated, hos been allowed to ran to waste, or made into parks and hunting grounds for the aristocracy-j and cruel and impudent hirelings,, aoting. as stewards for absent proprietors, have1 bitterly oppressed the tenants. In an Irish town the traveler passes through streets filled with the evidences of the most abject poverty to some one, or two, or three massive and costly residences of j the gentry, walled in and set apart from the desolation and misery every where present. If the chango seemingly inau? gurated by the disposition of the vast estates of the Marquis of Waterford can be carried on to its legitimate comple? tion, the event will prove that the dawn of a better day has arisen upon Ireland and Fenianism, Agrarianism, Commun? ism, and all the other "isms" that have their birth in oppression and their end? ing in blood, will pass naturally away, by reason of their very needlessness. There has been recently brought ont in England a machine for crushing and grinding bones by band, so that a cook can break, crush or grind bones to any desired size. As a quarter of a pound of bone contains as mach gelatin as a ponnd of meat, it is evident that a ma? chino that enables us to recover the whole of this, and at the Bame time re? duce the bones to a condition ready for conversion iuto superphosphate, must prove moat decidedly n, sof ul. The crasher is made of steel and cast-iron, and can be screwed to a block or solid table. It costs only about eight dollars in London. Champion Cock Fight.

FURBER, Vico-President. JOHN H. BEWLEY, Secretary. GEORGE L. MONTAGUE, Actuury. E. W. LAMBERT, M. D., Medical Examiner. THIS COMPANY offers tho following IMPORTANT ADVANTAGES to thoae about EFFECTING INSURANCE ON THEIR LIVES : 1. Iuauranco at Stock Rates, being from 20 to 30 per cont, less than the ratea charged by mutual companies, 2. Each Policy-holder ia regarded as a Stockholder to the extont of one Annual Premium on bia Policy, and will sharo in thc profita of tb? Company to tho same extent aa a Block holder owning an equal amount of tho Capital Stock. 3. Every Polioy issued by tho Company is non-forfeitable, and contains a olauee stating its exact Surrender Valne. Before Insuring your Life or accepting the Agency of any Company, READ TI1K FOLLOWING I A lengthened experience has demonstrated that the ratea ol premium ordinarily charged by lifo insurance companies aro from twenty-five to thirty per cent, in exoeBS of what are necessary for a safe and legitimate conduct of thc business". In other words, carefully and prudently-managed companies charging "mutual" rates have been able to return to their policy-holders from twenty-livo to thirty per cent, of tho amount charged for premiums. When lifo inaurance companica wero first organized, reliability of the data upon which pre miuma wero couatructed had not undergone test of experience. It waa thought, therefore, no moro than common prudenco to adopt a scale of premiums which would, in any event, meet all tho presumed and unforeseen coutingcncics of tho business. AB long as the matter was involved in Bomedoubt.it was better to fix tho rate too high than to incur tho risk of making it ton low; because, in the former CBBO, tho error could bo easily remedied, at least in part, hy returning to tho policy-holders, at certain intervals, such por? tion of the premium charged as was found necessary for tho purposes of tho business and tho completo security of tho company. Experience, however, having satisfactorily demonstrated that these ratea are excessive, what possible excuso can t here bo for maintaining them? Availing themselves of this experience, the Directors and Managen of tho Universal Life InsttrancotCompany, at its organization, adopted a scale of premiums in accordance there? with, and which has proved to be fair and adequato, and all that was necessary to meet the requirements ot tho business. These premiums arc about twontv-fivo per cont, lower than those charged by mutual companies. It also appeared, inasmuch as tho rate* so established wore as near as could possibly be determined fair rates, and not in excess nf what insurance has previously cost tho policy? holders in mutual companios, that any profits arising from prudent management justly and properly belonged to tho stockholdors'of tho company, for tho risk incurrod by them in un? dertaking the business. Experience has shown that there are sources of profit in tho practice of the business which theory will not admit of being considered aa elements in tho calculation of tho premiums. These results form a saving in tho mortality of the members of a company owing to tho me? dical aelection of good lives, a gain in interest on the inveatmenta of the company over that assumed in tho calculation of its premiums, tho profits dorivablo from the lapsing and sur? render of policies by tho members, and from othor minor sonrcoB. Profits from these sources, in a company possossod of a oapital of $200,000, and doing a fair amount of buainess, would givo to the stockholders dividends largely in oxceas ot what were counted on by tho Directora of tho Universal *\ tho time of its organization. They have, therefore, determined to divide among the policy-holders of tho company a large part of the profits accruing from tho sources named, all or which have horctoforo boen divided among tho stockholders. Tho plan adopted Tor such division is as follows: Every person who may hereafter insure with tho Universal will, for the purposes of division, be troated as a stockholder to extent of ono annual premium upon his policy: and will share in theprofits of the Company to precisely the same extent as a Stockholder owning an equal amount of Hie Capital Stock. By thia system of insurance, original with tho Universal, tho policy-holders secure the fol? lowing important advantages: 1. Insurance at tho regular "stock" ratoe, requiring a primary outlay of about twunty.to thirty per cont, less than that charged by mutual companies, and wbloh ia equivalent to a yoarly ''dividend" paid in advance of that amount on mntual rates. This low coat of insur? ance is worthy pf attention. Since ita organization, thia company has received in premiums from its policy-holders tho MIDI of fl 517,000. To effect tho same amount of insurance in a mutual company would bavo oost thom an initial outlay of $2,000,000. By allowing its policy? holders to retain, in their own possession, this OXCOHS of $483,000, tho Universal baa virtually paid thom a *,dividond"of $183,000. and paid it, too, in advance, instead of at tho end of ono or moro j oara. It is impossible to find any examplo of a mutual company furnishing inanr anco at so low a cost by returning to policy-holders an equal amount upon similar receipts. 2. Participation in tho legitimate profits of tho company, upon a plan which aoourea to tho policy-holders tho samo treatment which directora and stockholders award to themaelvea. This system of participation, in connection with tho low "stock" ratea of promioma, muBt necessarily secure to tho policy-holders every possible advantago to be dorived from prudent and careful management. Thi! low rates of premium compel economy, and, iudopeiidout of participation, guarantco tri the policy-holder his insurance ?it a rate which is not in oxecesof tho cost in well managed mut ual companies; whilo. by tho proposed plan nf participation in what may bo considered the legitimate profits of the business, tho cost will bo still further diminished. Thus hy tho combined advantages arising from low stock rato and participation in profits, it is confidently believed tho DM VERSAL LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY offers insurance at its lowest practicable cost. SarThoso of tho existing policy-holders who desire Iii partic?palo in profits ander tho new plan can do so hy making application io the head oilier, or to any agents of tho company. The Company is in a sound financial condition.
