The main objects the promoters of this Company have in view is to establish in the Dominion of Canada, uuder our admirable Insurance Law, a purely Mutcal Life Insurance Company, wholly for the benefit of the insured.

Tue Mourvat Princirte is the only one by which the participating members of a Life Insurance Company can receivea full equivalent for their money. It gives Insurance at net cost, while the soundness of the principle and the stability of suc h institutions are proved by the fact that the largest and most successful Life Companies in the world are mutual,

It has no stockholders to deplete its Treasury by enormous annual dividends, and its directors are always selected trom the very first citizens in the community, while its Execu- tive propose to conduct its affairs with the strictest economy, consistent with the efficient management and prosecution ofits business, confidently anticipating that results as success- ful, proportionally to those ettained by mutual companies in other countries, will be realized in Canada by a prudently managed company.

This Company issues three classes of policies: First—Ordinary Life and Kndowment with Profits. Second—Tontine Savings Fund Policies (deferred profits), Life and Endow- ment. Third—lIndustrial Class Policies, Life and Endowment

The Ordinary Life and Endo.yment Policies of this Company provide the greatest amount of Insurance for the least amount of moncy, and the best possible security for a family against want, should the bread-winner be removed by premature on untimely death.

The Tontine Savings Fund, or Tontine Investment Policy, offers to all who havea reasonable prospect of being able to continue their payments, results which are incom- parably better than the ordinary plans of Insurance, To all possessed of a reasonably cer- tain income there are few investments more attractive in their results.

The Industrial Plan of Insurance of this Company offers special advantages to the working classes, and persons of small means, who by monthly quarterly, or half-yearly pay ments can secure a risk of irom $100 to $500 on their lives, payable within twenty-four hours after death.

All Policies incontestable after three years from date for unintentional errors, mistakes or omissions in application,

would have made the best of his way to his horse and comrades. Instead of doing so, he tarned full, front towards tis, raised. his.arm»in'the air, shook his clenehed™hand in’ a menacing manner, accompanying the action with a torrent Of what he said, we tnderstood but the concluding phrase, and that was the bitter and blasphemous that hissed through his teeth etic aspiration of hate and

carajo ! with the ener revenge.

That oath was the last word he ever uttered ; his parting breath scarcely car- ried it from his lips, ere he ceased to live. J heard the fierce word, and almost simultaneously, the crack of a rifle close tomy ear. 1 saw the dust puff out froin ‘the embroidered spencer of the Mexican, and directly over his heart; I saw his hand pass rapidly to the spot, and the next moment he fell forward upou his face |

Without a groan, without a struggle, | he lay as he had fallen, spread dead and motionless upon the prairie !

‘Thur, durn yur carako!” cried a voice at my shoulder; ** ee won't bid for

me &

vo °

agin, ee skunk—thet ee won't!’ | I needed no explanation, though I ‘turned involuntarily to the speaker, Of ‘course it was Rube. His rifle was ‘smoking at the muzzle, and he was pro- ceeding te reload it.

‘* Wa-hoo—woop !” .centinued he, ‘uttering his wild war-cry; “ thet short- ens thar count, | reck’n. Another nick

‘for Targuts! Gi me her for a gun.!

Wagh! a long pull it wur for the ole /weepun; and the glint in my eyes too! ‘The niggur riled me, or 1 wudn’t a risked it. Hold yur hosses, boys!” he ‘continued in a more earnest tone: ** don’t ' fire till I’m loaded—for yur lives don’t!” | | * All right, Rube !? cried Garey, who hastily passing under the belly of his ‘horse, had re-entered the square, and ‘once more handled the rifle. All right, ‘old boy/ Ne’er a fear! we'll wait for ye.”

| Somewhat to our surprise, Rube iwas allowed ample time to re- ‘load, aud our three’barrels once more | protruded over the shoulders of Sarey’s

‘horse, Our animals still held their re-| | spective positions. ‘Three ef them were) ‘too well used to such scenes, to be startled | ‘by the detonation of a rifle; and the; | fourth, fastened as he was, kept his place) | perforce.

I say, to our surprise,we were allowed time to get into our old vantage-ground ; ‘for we had expected an immediate) charge from the guerilla.

Venceance for the death of their com-| rade would give them courage for that | lso theught we; but we were mis-| taken, as their ire only vented itself} in fierce yells, violent gestures, and loud|

cries.

They had clustered round their chief without order or formation. They seem- ed to pay slight regard to his authority. | Some appeared urging him to lead them lon! Some came galloping nearer, and fired their carbines; others shook their \lances in a threatening manner; but one} | and all were careful to keep outside that | lperilous circle, whose circumference} marked the range of our rifles. They)

ters than ever; the fate of their comrade |

i had awed them. | The dead man lay about half-way be-| tween them and us, glittering in his pic-|

: his loss, for not only had he been one | ,

= lof their leaders, but one of their best} jmen. They saw he was dead, though} /uone had dared to approach him. They| knew the Texan rife of old—those ispangled heroes; they saw, moreover, \that we were armed with revolvers, and 'the fame of this terrible weapon had been already carried beyond the frontier of the Rio Grande.

Notwithstanding all that, men of our race, under similar circumstances, would

would men of theirs, three centuries age.

Perhaps in that band was an Alvardo, a Sandoval, a Diaz, or De Soto! only in name. O Cortez ! and you conquistadores could you behold your degeuerate des- cendauts !

And yet not all of them were cowards : some, | dare say, were brave enough, for there are brave men amoug the Mexicans. A few were evidently wil’-

iresque habiliments. They were weaker | *

have charged without hesitation.. So,too, | s

frovd ; though upon my serves, less in- dffferent to danger, their example had its effect, and inspired me with courage suf- ficient for the oceasion. Be sides, drew confidence from another source. Ip case of defeat, | hada resource unshared by my companions—perhaps unthought of by them. Trusting to the matchless speed of my horse, as a last resort, I might possibly escape. I could have ridden of at that moment without fear of being overtaken, but the craven thought was not entertained for an instant. By my honour, vo! I should have accepted death upon the spot rather than desert the brave men who stood by my side. To them I was indebted for my life. “Twas for me-that theirs was now in peril; and from the first moment | had determined to stand by them to the end, and sell my blood at its dearest. In the event of both falling before me, it would then be time to think of flight.

Even this contingeucy had the effect of strengthenirg my courage, and at that

‘moment I viewed the vengeful foe with

a coolness and freedom from fear that, in the retrospect, now surprises me, During the interval of inaction that followed, I was cool enough to reflect upon the demand which the guerrilla leader had made — the surrender of my person. Why was / siogled out? We

‘were all enemies alike—all Americans

or Texans—on Mexican soil, and armed for strife. Why did they want me alone? Was it because I was superior in rank to my companions? But how knew they this?—how knew they { was a “ranger captain?’ Ha! they must have known it before ; they must have come out speci- ally in search of me !

A light flashed suddenly into my mind —a suspicon strong almost as certainty. Bat for the sun glancing in my eyes, I might have earlier obtained an explana» tiou of the mystery. I drew down the visor of my forage-cap, stretching it to its

full extent ; I increased the shade with i'my flattened palms, and from under them istrained my eyes upon the leader of the

band. Already his voice, while in con-

iversation with Garey, had aroused a faint

recollection within me. I had heard that voice only once, but I thought I remem- bered it. Guided by my suspicion, 1 now scrutinized more closely the face of the mau, Fortunately, it was turned towards me, and despite the slouched sombrero, 1 recognized the dark features of Rafael Ijurra! In that glance I comprehended the situation. He it was who wanted the ‘ranger captain !”’

There was doubt no longer. My sus- picion was @ certainty ‘but with the next throb of my heart rose another a thousand

”

times more painful—a suspicion of With an effort, I stifled my emotious ; a movement was preceptible among the guerrilieros ; the moment of action had arrived ! TO BE CONTINUED.

To the Editor of the Examiner. Dear Srr,—Knowing that you are a ipporter of education, I deem it necessery of placing these few remarks before you to be scrutinized by you, and also those who take an interest in that im- portant branch of education, I think in me of the rural parts of the Island educa- tion is decreasing instead of imereasing. One of the places that l refer to is Mill- cove School District. The pupils formerly tanght by the learned and instructive Reach are at present under the control of specimen of the feminine gender, only under the caracity of teaching on a third- class certificate. I think this is a very poor exchange in regard to pupils advane- ing. Some of the pupils that were far ad- anced in Algebra, Trignometry, &c., are now reduced . grade very little higher han the ABO. I think this is a viola- tion of Elementary Education of 1870. I m greatly surprised at ihe simplicity of the Trustees of the said Distriet for en- wing a teacher who but a few me nths ago was the above pupil's school mate, also for thinking the present teacher was capable of performing the same dulies as Mr. Roach. Only for occupying eo much of your valuable paper, I would « stend my remarks ; but I think it suffice at present.

Yours, Ac. ; J. F.
