Who Shall be Bishop ? (Halifax Herald) Episcopalians are eagerly discussing the question af who is the most suitable successor to Bishop Binney.. There seems to be a wide diflerence between the views of the laity and clergy as to the most suitable man; but there appears to be a general concensus of opinion will be chosen. Though, beyond the fact that prophets have no honor where they reside, no~ valid reason is given why a resident of the diocese should not be sclected. Many names are mentioned, and a good deal of canvassing is already going on. ‘The names most talked of are Rev. Dr. Sulli- van, bishop of Algoma; Rev. Wm. Cogswell, Whose father and grandfather were episcopal and; whe have rendered over a century of church service ; and bishop Lee, of, fowa, who visited the diocesan synod’ in Halifax at itsy last session and = created a ‘Wery ‘<faxprable impression, The name of Dr. Hill has also Neen frequently mentioned, but his age and the fact that he has left the province tells against him.

Is there at present any man in this diocese so pre-emimently above his fellows in the needfal qualificationsof a bishop as to be pliced over them in the Lord? I dosay no Nova Scotian should be selected. I think No ™ Scotians who have knowledge of the work and thé experience elséwhere. are most suitable to be nominated. There is Heber Bul- lock, with large outside experience, and of honor- There is John Storrs, the vicar of per- haps the most important congregation in London, wlro was found worthy to sncceed Dr. Wilkinson when he was made bishop of Traro.

From the accompanying tables you may learn what it really is worth to a company to cover a risk on any life for the various ages given. (For older ages the cost is on the same basis.) Coiumn (1) indicates the age attained; column (2) indicates the theoretical cost American ex- perience. Commissioner Tarbox says, ‘‘Of the companies doing business in Massachu- setts with records of from twenty to forty- two years experience, not one has experienced a death rate of within ten per cent. of the expectation,” On page 36 of the 44st annual report of the Mutual Life of New York, which bears date of Jan. Ist, 1884, we find the follow- ing statement: ‘‘While our death rates have fluctuated during the periods of pes- tilence by cholera and yellow fever and of war, yet our losses have never in a single year been so great as the experience tables call for.” The Canada Life, which is our oldest Canadian company, has had a mortality during the fifteen years of its experience from April 30th, 1871, to April 30th, 1886, inclusive, “..¢e., from.its 25th to its 39th year of 64.16 per cent, and has in no single year come within eighteen per cent of the theoretical cost to cover its risks, as shown by its reports. Column (3) indicates the average cost of the Canada Life during the fifteen years from the 25th to the 39th years of its ex- perience inclusive to cover the insurance risk for $1,000 at all the ages given. Column (4) indicates the total cost to policy holders in the Federal Life on the Homans-plan for $10,000 at each of the ages for the years 1885 and 1886, (Smaller amounts cost in the same ratio.) The extia expense at the issue of the policy is not in- cluded ; but it is not large and it is payable but once only. l 2 3 4 20 $7 8] $4 07 $60 00 21 7 86 4)) 60 00 22 7 91 4 16 60 00 ZS 7 95 4 21 60 00 24 S$ 02 4 26 60 00 25 8 07 432 000.
