THE JUDGMENT OF SOLOMON.—A young man of Funfkirchen having promised marriage to two young girls, each appealed to a court of justice to compel him to marry her. Both supported their pretensions by the most convincing proofs of af- tection on the part of the young man, who, on bis side, admitted all that had been alleged, declared his equal love tor both, and expressed his willing- ness to marry whichever of the young women the judges decided that he should take. The court having regard to the slender means of the young pretender, decided that the richest of the two girls should pay 300 florins to the other, and that she might at that price satisfy the cravings of her heart.

In making this ste.c aent,we make no exception even in favor of our older local companies, namely, the Liverpool and London, the Royal, and the Lancashire Insurance Companies.” [From the Civil Service Gazette, Nov. 2, 1861.) “ Among these important institutions stands emi nent for its solidity, as well as for its success, “the Queen Insurance Company,” which last week held its annual meeting of proprietors in Liverpool, A reference to the ample report in another page will fully satisfy every reader of the signal progress made by this association since its foundation. Such success is, indeed, rarely attained; and it attests at once the excellence of its management, and the pub- lic confidence in its constitution.’ {:cr the Liverpool!
