WIVES AND LIFE INSURANCE.—Chief Justice Armourhas just rendered a decision ,which will be of interest to the fathers of families and those who have to do with life insurance. He holds ideffect that a man who has duly declared a life insurance policy to be for the benefit of his wife alone can- not by his will deprive the wife of this benefit and transfer it to his children. He can, however, do so during his life hy an instrument in writing attached to orindorsed or identifying the policy by its number, transfer the benefit front the wife alone, to the children alone, or vice versa, or vary the apportionment the wife and children are to receive. In the present case the wife did not claimthe whole 'of the insurance money, hut a share in it alone with the children. The chief ,justice, however, went further ar.d decided that she was entitled tot -he whole of -the money; as her husband could not by will substi- tute the children for his wife as bene- ficiaries after having first declared the policy to be for the widow's sole Gene - fit. WORTH AND MERIT RECOGNIZED. -- For nearly tiIIt ee years the Rev. W. Smyth has been the 'popular pastor of the Ontario Street Methodist Church and during that time has endeared him- self to all classes of the communityboth in and out of the church. At the Quarterly Board meeting on Tuesday the following timely and praiseworthy resolution was uuar,inupuslyadopted:- - "Moved by D. Tip111y and seconded by .J. Brickenden, That this Quarterly Official Board of the On(Alio St. Metho- dist church, Clinton, desires to plane on record its appreciation of the faith- ful label's of our pastor, the Rev. W. Smyth, who is now closing his termof three years on this charge. We espec- ially desire to bear testimony to his very great ability, as a preacherof the ..Nord. IIis ae.•uwns, which always show evidence of careful preparation. Nita clear, earnest, faithful and eloquentre pse(Latiuns of Divine Truth, and have been owned of God in the salta- tion of studs rind the building up of believers in Christ. The labors of our pastor, and his relations to all the interests of the church, were never so much appreciatedas during this, the closing year of his term, as evidenced Ery the large and increasing attendanceat the service of the church. We also desire to speak of his abilityand tact in the management of the business natters of the church, and his kind and eourteous manner as chairman of this board. We do not know that the legislation of the recent General Con- ference would entitle us to ask for his return for a fourth year. As we un- derstand the lacy in relation to the ex- tension of the terns, it only applies to 'special cases,' where the exigencies of the work may seem to demandit, and that in all other cases the term shall remain as at present, and, therefore, at the close of the present year, the re- lation between us as pastor and peoplemust close. Wo beg to assure mat• pastor and his excellent and devoted wife, that our hest wishes andprayers will always follow thein in theirfu- ture life, and we do most cordially recommend our beloved pastorto any church to whi' h he may, in the provi.• tlenco of God, be appointed, and fnr- ther, we ft e tit,tl, ht, girl, and ability eminently fi', himto fill with accep- tant o any 1 ulpit in our' work."
