The advantages presented by the Mutual Life Insurance Company of Wisconsin are equal (if not superior) to those ot any Life Insurance Company offering to do business in the North West.

Its rates are as low, and its assets, in proportion to the amount at risk, and the age of risks, are greater than those of any other company, with one single exception, in the country: proving the economy and care of management thus far. And it may no longer be said, that we cannot have as reliable an institution of the kind in the West as elsewhere. The money accumulations can be as safely invested in Wisconsin as In any other State, and with the advantage of keeping it at home Its trustee are well known as business men in the state, and they have taken bold of the work with the view of making this Company' second to none the United Stater; and it is the direct interest of every person wishing to make Life Insurance for the protection of loved ones, to do so with the Company that is nearest to them, that they may look after and into its management.

Cliwev merely smoothed his down, eagerly observing that if he pulled the things oil', he never could put them on again. Harry anu George, who shared the same room, having followed Charley's plan, put on nn extra touch by sweeping their room and leaving the pile of dust in the entry. Excelsior! Three days experience convinced them that bachelors cookery was slow starvation.

Steaks and coffee for breakfast were followed by coffee and steaks for dinner, and both for tea. Chai4ey suggested that they should have their meals sent from a restaurant. "All men coks, so we stick to the contract, was his final observation. The motion was seconded, and carried by an unanimous vote. By this time every dish, plate, napkin, pot and pan in the house was dirty, and joyfully concluding that they wouldn't want them any more, the gentlemen piled them up in the kitchen sink, ou the floor and tables, and left them.

There was a dead silence. Who kuows how to wash No answer. I I've seen it done, said one faint voice, owned by Charley. You soap the things and rub them on a board. Can anv body iron? They all thought they could manage that The kitchen was opened lor me ursi lime in ten days.

In reaching after one of the critters, Charley upset the table. Crash went the crockery. Screams of laughter, cries of disgust, blows thick as hail, comments on the heat, jokes, warnings flow about an hour, and then the panting party ceased from their labors, and viewed sternly tho cold corpuses" of their foes. A scream from Minnie There's one down my back George cried Joe, there's one on your hair Don't mention it. Look at that fellow an vour shirt-sleeve.

A general stampede for the bathroom fol lowed. Let's wash up here. No sooner said than done. The soiled clothes were collected from all the rooms, and the boards and soap brought up from the kitchen. Joe and Harry washed, blistering hands and streaming foreheads testifying to their efforts.

Cold water required a great deal of rubbing, and somehow things had a yellow ish tinge alter all, as George remarked as he wrung them out. Minnie, objecting to go in the yard, hung them over the chairs in the dining-room and the banisters in the entry as fast as George and Charley wrung them out. Dinner came, and found them still at work. Dinner eaten, the dishes carried off by the waiter from the restaurant, they changed places, and the washers wrung aud hung up the clothes wlule tne otuers wasneu. Six clock saw the last shirt hanging in damp limpsiness over the parlor chandelier the handkerchiefs waved from the mantle- piece, and the stockings dangled from the bars of Canterbury.

"They always iron tho next day, so they can dry in the night," said Harry. After another slaughter of roaches in the morning, hre was lighted, the irons put on and the clothes collected, rough dry, for the final touches. Every man had visions of smooth clean linen, to repay him lor his un accustomed efforts. Such is hope Charley took the first step. Planting his iron on the front of his shirt, a smell greeted his nostrils, and he lifted it again to behold a large brown mark, the precise shape of the flat-iron, burned on the bosom, of his best shirt.

Minnie's iron being almost cold, was traveling briskly up and down his shirt, but producing no visible effect. It was humiliating, but true, that Joe took an order to a gentleman's furnishing store that morning for a supply of linen, and the "washed clothes" were consigned to the pot- closet to await Susy return. Susy's return How can I describe it Every man on that day found he had an im perative engagement abroad, and the little maiden found an empty house. She went first to the parlor. Dust lay in piles.

One curtain was torn from the cornice, and lay against the window. Cigars halt smoked some reduced to a mere stump spitoons were in every corner the chairs were promiseu ously deranged on the center table three bottles, two demijohns, a pack of cards, and about a dozen tumblers replaced her pretty- books. The piano bore two pair of boots, deposited there when the owners were too tired to go up stairs, and forgotton afterward, the Canterberry had a dish of chicken salad reposing peacefully upon it one ottoman supported a hat and cane, another a coat every chair carried some relic of the departed guests, here a handkerchief, there a ciga case, on one a pocket-comb, on another tooth-pic. Susy was dismayed but like brave little woman, determined to face the muss at once. The kitchen came next.

I have seen them march into a strange region at dark, and as soon as fires would show well, they were twinkling all ove the field, the Sibley cones rising like the work of enchantment everywhere, and the little dog-tents lying snug to the ground, as if, like the mushrooms, they had grown there and the aroma of coffee and tortured bacon suggesting creature comforts, and the whole economy of a life in canvas cities, moving as steadily on as if it had never intermitted, The movement of regiments, you know, are as blind as fate.

UV MARY CLAKKK. It was a warm evening in early June, and in street, in the handsome city of a merry party of young folks were holding a warm, laughing discussion. Susy Arnold, the young hostess, who kept house for her two brothers, Harry and George took one side of the question, while three other gentleman beside her tall brother opposed her. Charley Grey, a blue-eyed, curly headed man, whose rouud face and boyish air formed an apparent contradiction to the assertion, he made of having five years before attained his majority; Joe Morris, who, from a Spanish mother inherited jetty hair and eyes, and a pale complexion, and from his father a fine tall figure, and a frank, ingenious expression and Milton Daeres, whose small figure and bashful ways accounted fully for his nickname Miuuie these three, with the masters of the house, waged playful war on the little brown eyed maiden, who sat so demurely on the sofa. Say what youpleasc.said "you will never convince me of the superiority of men in the capacity of housekeepers." But I maintain," said Joe, that men can keep house without women, but that women can not do so unless we shall assist them.

or instance, saia Harry, "when your Biddy was sick last winter, Sue, how could such a mite as you have brought up coal, kept up the furnace hre, and lifted about wood, unless your two brothers naci gallantly re lieved you of your care "Not to mention that the furuaee fire went out three "A truce," said George, laughing. "That was my fault but 'accidents will happen in the best regulated lamilies as somebody, name forgotten once very wisely remarked." "I only wish you could keep house, for I would accept Aunt Jane's invitation to travel with her this summer, were it not for leaving you." "I have an idea here," cried Charley Grey, "an idea which, if you will agree to act upon, shall fully cure women of their indispen-sibilitv ahem I that word nearly choked me." "That ungallant sentence should have quite strangled you," said Susy. "Present company always excepted," was the reply. "The idea, let's have the idea. "Suppose we keep house here, while Miss Susv travels." "Here fin, 1 Snsv nrrhswt 0 "But," said Susy I'm sure Jennv would not stay." "We don't want her we want no women about." Visions of muddy boots on the parlor sofa, cigars in the flower vases, pipes on the center tables, spittoons in the best hed room, and frying pans in the library, flitted through the young lady's mind, but before she could remonstrate, Harry said "So be it hurrah for bachelor's hall.

Tack up vour trunk, Susv." "But, l'larry "Glorious!" cried Charley, "not a petticoat within the door's for a month." But" again said poor Susy. "No fusses about tobacco in the curtain," chimed in George. Won't it be gay Gay 1" groaned the little housekeeper. Lay in a supply of cigars, Georgo suggested Joe. When do you go, Miss Susy "Monday Aunt Jane's letter says Monday," said Harry.

"Miday, then! We will come, bag and baggage, ou Monday morning." On an express stipulation that not a woman performs a stroke of work for us for a month." With many a flourish, amidst the gayest jests, George wrote a solemn contract, by which they bound themselves to ask no service of any kind at woman's hand for one month from the date of the following Monday, June 1803, and all put their signatures to the important document. Susy seeing that her brothers really were in earnest, tried to think she was glad to go, and added her laughing directions to the schemes proposed. At a later hour the conclave broke up, and Susy retired with a head full of plans, and a heart full of sore misgivings. Monday morning dawned fair and clear. Six o'clock saw Sucy drive away from the door in the carriage, the trunk strapped behind, the lady's pretty traveling dress, and the shawl of her cousin and cavalier, all bespeaking travel.

Seven saw the servant depart to spend a month with her mother in the country. Nine o'clock witnessed the meeting of the merry young bachelors. "Now then," said George, after the first greets were over, as the eldest host, will take charge to-day. As Susy says, when are yon going down town I have nothing to do to-day, bo I'll stay to assist vou, Baid Minnie. Thank you What's for dinner?" said Joe, trying to look like the head of some respectable family, and failing most deplorably in the attempt.

You'll Bee at three o'clock." Is that the hour Yes Ilemembcr," said George, "I wait for no one. Punctuality is the soul of dinner, as somebody once said before I mentioned the fact." Having seen the others off, Georgo and Minnie went into the library for a smoke, to prepare them for the Herculean task before them. Sec," said George, producing a cook book; we are safe." Mrs. Hales, that's a woman?" cried Minnie. Roast lamb, potatoes, green peas, asparagus, and strawberries." mat 1 do.

Don't you have to shell peas, something or Yes, that's easy enough." It's awful hot," said Minnie, aftei a short silence. Horrid "Suppose we shell, the peas up here. It's cooler here than in the kitchen. I suppose there's a fire there Of course." I'll go and bring them up." They're in a basket on the table. Just leave the rest of the things down in the kitchen." Shelling peas was rapid work even for un accustomed fingers, but it is a matter of taste whether the thorough smoking they had from the two actively puffed cigars, improved their flavor.

Now, what do you do with them said Minnie. There ain't many," he added, as he looked at the little creen balls rolling about at the bottom of the huge market bas ket, and then eyed the large pile of shells on the floor. You boil them, of course," was George's answer. "OhJ suppose we go down." "Well, come along," said George, taking up the basket. The fire burned brightly Jennie had left all in good order, and the prospect was not bad for the amateur cooks.

Oh, anything." "Hut where bit?" "In some of the closets I guess Susy would certainly have fainted could she have seen the overhauling of her neatly arranged closets Unit followed. Thir 1" Minnie dragged forth a pot large enough to boil about twenty pounds of meat in. Iu they went, unwashed. 41 Hot water or cold "Either." All light, that's done." Now the asparagus. How do you fix it I wonder if you roast mutton in this thing," said George, holding up a very large pudding dish.

Yes." Gee orce determined to una a dook i ill on cookery, written by a man, the very next day. You boil asparrgus, don't you," asked Minnie. Georgo Yes here's a tin thing that's long and shallow I guess that's for such things." And a dripping pan came forth to sight from tho closet. The asparagus fitted it like a charm, as both men declared, and water was added and got on the range. The mutton next went on the pudding dish, into the oven.

Come let's go up stairs again, it's fearfully hot here," said George. the dinner "Oh, that's got nothing to do but cook till three o'clock." Oh, George, here's the potatoes Another pot was produced, and the potatoes with about two gallons of water to the half peck of Murphies put on the fire. Smoking, chatting, reading, and a little practice on the violin filled up the morning, though George declared it was horrid slow," and Minnie wondered what on earth women did witn themselves. Half-past two brought home three hungry men to dinner. Leaving the cooks to dish up," they all adjourned to the parlor to cool themselves.

That it was rather dusty there was not noticed. Jenny had made the beds before she left, but dusting the parlor was Susy's work, and her early start had prevented her from doing it that morning. George," Minnie's voice was very doleful. "What?" The tire's out "Out?" I wonder if anything's cooked The asparagus is burnt fast to the pan." So is the meat." "The potatoes?" Broken all to pieces and floating about in the water." "These peas are all mushy, Minnie Punctuality is the spirit of a dinner," cried Joe from the parlor, it's ten minutes past three o'clock." "lio set tne tabic, growieu ueorge at Minnie. It was unique in its arrangement, that table, as the gentlemen sat down to dinner.

The meat figured on an enormous dish, with an ocean of white china surrounding its sunken proportions. The potatoes iu little lumps, uuskinned, were piled in a fruit dish the green mush which Minnie had with infinite dilliculty fished from the big meat pot, was served on a red earthen plate, and the stalks of asparagus were in the salad bowl. The table cloth was awry and the napkins were omitted altogether from the table. "Where's the gravy?" was Joe's first question. "There was'nt any." The meat's burned." "It's stone cold," cried one voice.

What's this said a third, digging into a pile of peas. Paugh followed the daring attempt to eat some asparagus. Never mind," said Joe. Rome wasn't made in a day. Give us some bread and butter and pickles, George." No, not pickles, preserves, George," said Charley.

Susy locked both up," cried Harry, laughing. She declared a woman put them up, and if we wanted them we must prepare them ourselves. Minnie produced the strawberries, and some sugar, ami the gentlemen declared they had dined superbly. You fellows clear away," said Minnie "we're tired." "You wah up, don't you?" queried Joe. Yes." "Where's the water?" In the hydrant." What do you wash 'cm in Tan, I guess." Awav went Joe on a voyage of investiga tion, and returned soon with a dish full, of cold water.

Tho as Harry termed the remains of their sumptuous repast, were thrown from the window into Susy's flowerbed, and armed with a bar of soap and a fine damask napkin, Joe began to wash up. How the grease sticks!" Perspiration streaming from every pore, he rubbed manfully at the greasy plates and dishes, and if the water was cold, he certainly was not. "I've wet my shirt front!" Splash num ber one. Good for white pants Splash number two. That went into my eyes somebody wipe them mv hands are wet.

Don't rub them out, Hall Come, some of you, wipe up!" The table was cleared at last. Five damp, greasy napkins, thrown into a corner of the room, testified that the dishes were washed and wiped. The water followed the "leav ings," and the quintette sat down to cool off." Do cigar3 assist that operation? Soite of the superb dinner, five "inner men called, like Oliver Twist, for more about seven o'clock. What's for tea Somebody started the question. What's for tea? four voices echoed it Let's have coffee I can make coffee," said George.

And a steak I can cook it, said Joe. "There's bread and butter," said Harry. George went for the steak Minnie under took to make a fire Harry gout the bread Joe set the table Charley "cleared the kitch en" by sweeping the pots and pans used at dinner, into a closet, washing being omitted in the operation. Minnie, blowing and puffin fire, was saluted with making the "How it smokes "What ails the fire Min Harry discoverd the cause, pulled ont the damper, and a merry blaze repaid him. The coffee boiled, the steak spluttered in the pan, and the men panted, perspired, whistled, and used improper language over the beat, It was a good supper, and, piling up the dishes which it was too hot to wash, the bachelors returned to the parlor, It was involuntary, but each pair of eyes rested for a moment on the seat Susy was wont to occupy.

A little music, more talk, and still more smoking, filled the time till midnight, when each one yawned himself off to bc-d. Harry, who was always the one to lock up, stayed the latest. The kitchen looked dreary no fire, a greasy frying pan placed as a helmet over the coffee pot, bits of bread lying about loose, dirty pot3 here and dirty dishes there. The parlor was in disorder chairs stood in forlorn confusion, smoke hung over all The dining-room, with its piles of dirty cups, saucers and plates, its unswept lloor, greasy napkins, and smoky atmosphere, was worst of all, and Harry inwardly admitted that somehow the house didn't look as usual. There was fun the next morning making up beds.

The milkman and baker had vainly knocked for admittance, and finally retired in disgust, and the bachelors breakfasted off stale bread left from the night's feast, and coffee black and sweet. Everv man clear up his own room. The order given each started to obey. joe pulled off all the clothes from, his bed, and having laid tho bolster and hia pillow on, proceeded to put on first a blanket, next a spread, and finally the two sheets, finishing off the whole by putting himself on top to rest from his toils.

RCBI.EE. Rebel Compliments. The rebels are becoming disgusted with the state of their finances, and are attributing the wortluessness ol Confederate promises to pay to the want of financial ability in Jekk. Davis' cabinet. The Richmond Examiner takes occasion to contrast the talents of Secretary Chase with those of Hcnteu, the rebel Secretary of the Treasury, very much to the disadvantage oi the latter, it pronounces Mr.

Chase a consummate adept in the intri cate business of finance," and says he has conducted the finances of the United States with "consummate ability." There is no doubt but the Secretary of the Treasury has displayed a tact and skill under the trying circumstances in which he has been placed, such as arc rarely manifested, and that the warmest thanks are due him from the country, to which he has contributed so much in carrying it safely and easily through a crisis of unexampled difficulty. At the same time, however, it would be absurd to expect that any amount of financial genius could keep up the credit of the rebellion anywhere within an approximating distance of that of the National Government. The only marvel in the case is, that it should have any credit at all. For Submission. Uannt, of Arkansas, lornierlv a Congressman in rebeldoni, and a Brigadier General in the rebel army, but now a prison er of war at Little Rock, has recently issued a remarkable address to the people of Arkan sas, in which he counsels submission to the Union arms, and denounces Jeff.

Davis in un measured terms as a hypocrite and tyrant, and by no means the man for the occasion. He tells the people that the rebellion can not succeed, that the South is virtually whipped already, and speaks of slavery in the fol lowing sensible manner: hether it is a divine institution or not, negro slavery has accomplished its mission here. Its existence had become incompatible with the existence of the government. For, while it had stood as a wall, damming up tho current and holding back the people and laborers of the North, it had, by thus precluding free intercourse between the two sections, produced a marked change in their manners, customs, and sentiments. And the two sections were growing more divergent everv day.

The shock came which was to settle the question. I thought that the Gov ernment was divided and negro slavery estab lished forever. I The Government was stronger than slavery. Reunion is cer tain, but not more certain than the downfall of slavery." laeut.
