Thus is Co^W^pMeheuded not only the danger of destruction of Capital and Assets by fire, as waa the case with about ta* fire Companies at Chicago,^ bot also the !M ?er rate ol' interest on first class investments from restriction fl of territory by State laws. That the New York Companies feel this restric- ! < tion, is proven by the persistent efforts of their different Insurunce Conven tions to have it removed, so as to allow their vast and rapidly accruing capital to have the advantage of the larger rate? of interest, and greaten ; choice of investments; but the contracted policy of their State legislators/ j who can see only tile local interest of the City and vicinity, has so far defeated all efforts of their financiers, and every dollar paid them must Be takes from oar own impoverished country to be invested, less safely, 'and at lek advantage, for the benefit of that section Which is oppressing and harrassiiig yo i with unjust taxation, .and whose hordes of armed mercenaries are now, imprisoning and hunting down your best citizens, insulting and robbing the innocent females, and creating "a reign of terror" unknown in the modem history of enlightened nations, and unsurpassed by the Neroes and moat crnel barbarians of the dark ages. / We do not mean to attribute to the Northern Insurance Companies t|is state of affairs, or to impute our sufferings lo their agency, but they bclong\ to a section always inimical to us, and our institutions,-our conquerors, tyrants and oppressors,-and we can see no good reason why our people should be expected to pass by and ignore a noble Southern enterprise, reared amid the , smoking rains of oar fallen country, established by the hard-earned savings j of oar ? uined people, and daily dispensing to the destitute widows and or- < phans the sacred fund entrusted to their keeping.

ABNEY & PAUKER, State Agents. JXarl3 tf .11 PIEDMONT & ARLINGTOI LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY. Some months ago one of the General Agenta of the " Universal" institu ted a comparative cost of Insurance between his Company and the Piedmont & Arlington, using the /Stock tables,of his Company anet the Mutual tables of the Piedmont & Arlington. The error was .promptly corrected by.fur nishing a comparison of the Stock tables of .each, clearly proving the Pied mont ? Arlington to be the cheaper of the two. A Oar attention has recently been called to an advertisement of-the " Brook lyn," claiming to he the " cheapest" Company, and publishing on the plan of the " Universal," a comparison' between the cost of insurance qf that Company and the Piedmont ? Arlington, among many other Companies*. Now we heartily approve of comparisons, bi?t? we must here ? call the at-, tenison cf our friends representing that very substantial Company ?.to the fact that, notwithstanding the comparison of cost, taking male risks alone .into co isideratiou, is correct, yet when it ia known that in the ". Brooklyn" " Women are always charged one-half of one per centum on the amount in sured, as an extf?'yrremwm, in additum "to the regalar rates," it will be'readi ly conceded, as the.comparkon below will prove, that the Piedmont. & Ar lington ia infinitely cheaper for insuring females, and decidedly cheaper^ taking-the average cost qt both sexes, as the Piedmont &. Arlington makes, no di fifer eii ce as to sex. It Ls true that the Brook, y'i takes no female^sks on tbs ordinary life at any price, but the same comparison will li?l?-goc?i: in. the " 10 payment Life and Endowment plans." lue tables below is midd .. for convenieno-g-?-<Kmjinnatjoa_pX,comparisons previously instituted. : .?At the ageoC20l?Tth??i- of 30 ; -?thT?ge?fib; In P'.M>: .-. . ..^.-n./^--.: V .

We do not mean to attribute to the Northern Insurance Companies tins state of affairs, or to impute our sufferings to their agency, but they belong to a section always inimical to us, and our institutions,-our conquerors, tyrants and oppressors,-and we can see no good reason why our people should be expected to pass by and ignore a noble Southern enterprise, reared amid the smoking ruins of our fallen country, established by the hard-earned savings of our mined people, and daily dispensing to the destitute widows and or phans the sacred lund entrusted to their keeping. The Piedmont ? Arlington, with an income of about $1 500,000, is pay ing annually over $50,000 to the widows aud fatherless of South Carolina alone.

We believe that a large number of that party do feel the disgrace which has been put upon them by the base and shameless conduct of so many of those whom they have elevated to high portion, and that they sincerely desire to wipe out thia disgrace and to secure a thor ough change in our State government.

And now the white Methodists up in New York are charged with stealing the negro Church from the Colored Metho dists-and we have no doubt there is more truth (han poetry in the accusation, for although these Yankees talk love and phi lanthropy for thc negro up North with an equal fervor as do the carpet-baggersdown in South Carolina, ye't there, as well as here, every time they have an opportunity to swindle the poor^negro, they take par ticularcare to do it. The N. Y. World, of the 20tb, says : At the meeting of tho New York Afri can Methodist Conference at Zion Church yesterday the following preamble and res olution was offered by Rev. J. H. Thomas: Whereas, The property ' known as the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church of Newark, and owned by that society, has gone into the hands of the white Kjetho ??t Episcopal C hurch, and we consider the way in which the said church came into their possession unfair and unchris tianlike in a great religious body. Resolved, That they have no legal, mo ral, or Christian right to the same, and that the conference take the necessary steps to have the matter thoroughly investiga ted, and publish to the world the irregu larity of the said church. From the remarks made during the very lively discussion which followed, il ap peared the colored people of Newark raised a considerable sum to build the church in question, and when partially completed it was vested in the African Zion Church, bat vas seized by the Sheriff for a debt of $800, and then passed into the hands of Dr. W.

The writer says : " On the night after the arrival of the American party King Amadeus enterlain ed them at a banquet, where young Mr. Grant was treated as if he were thc scion of a royal family. He occupied a seat by the side of thc King, and I have been told he shocked the very footman by his somewhat boisterous mirth after he had imbibed several glasses of thc strong 'Spanish wine' -King Amadous is a man of most, polished manners, . and by no means a stickler for punctilious etiquette.. But on gala occasions hu takes good care not to onend the peculiar notions of his subjects, with regard to the ceremonials. Hence it must have been somewhat an noying to him to see his young guest by his side acting altogether as if nc were the most prominent personage at the ta ble, talking a great deal in a loud voice, leaning negligently back in his chair, and even picking nis teeth ! It was probably owing to t hese breaches of propriety and good hreeding that the papers next morn ing, in their reports of the banquet, had less to aay about Lieut. Grant than they would have had if he had displayed more modesty and reserve." SoUTHEnX AND WESTERN MANUFAC TURING NEWS.-The Langley Manufac turing Co., of Lanel?y, S.

Thc Political Mush Pot.? The Missionary Record reminds thc gentry Tho have held office and grown sleek and fat since the adoption of the Re construction Constitution, that the color ed people are-tired of being the tools of' political adventurers. They are conscious tBat " they have not stolen any of the .people's money ;" they know that, where office is given them, they never receive " full compensation for their services ;" they bid the office holding Ring remember .that, when the- day of doom comes, they will not be forgotten. Nor is the Mis? sionary Record, the organ of the South Carolina colored .men, to be driven from ita path by the" desperate efforts of any newly-painted Republican. The eetrtoi says : '" W? have learned to regard airmen aa having 'certain rights, 'whether they be .white or black. We have not felt that our dignity has been forgotten by express ing our dissent from any class of officials whom we have assisted to position's. We do. not regard those who may find fault with the present Administration as the worst enemies of the colored people, or of liepunlicamsm' per se. There are thou sands upright men of all shades of politics who do and must condemn any class or party of bad men who may do wrong." These are sensible words, and thc Mis sionary Record doe? not stop there. It tells the " 'scribbling proselytes" that they are seeking " a good fat office," and that " they deftot care a curse for the negro" only so far as his vote will serve to hoist them into the desired place. In conclu sion, it says : " We propose to continue our course, of honestly expressing our convictions and opinions of public men and their act;?. If they do not want to be criticised, let them shape their actions in conformity io law and good^overument; let their acts speak for them, and, if those acts arc just and proper, they will need no twaddling news paper to blow hot and cold every day in their behalf. We can afforcjto be just in our criticisms of public officers, for they cannot shake their gory looks at us and say thou didst it. We have never accept-; ed a moiety of means' which we did not render ample labor for. We can afford to be just because we have injured no class of men in this country." We print these passages to show that the colored people are growing tired of the crew who become rich while they gro.. ' poor. And what the editor of the Mis sionary Record says about officials who V do not want to be criticised-' reminds us pt a declaration in the letter lately writ ten hy.Gcifcral Bartlett, of Massachusetts. That gallant soldier, a staunch Republi can, hopes for thc nomination of Mr. Francis Adams- by the Cincinnati Con vention, and says* in a straightforward, soldierly way, that he believes in " Ad ministrations which are above sucpicion, and not in Administrations which art above investigation."
