* WD THE ADVERTISER. Tercas, 93,00 per Annan. Ke-opening o? the Salada House. By reference to our advertising col umns, it will be seen that Mrs. BOUL ' WARE has re opened the Saluda House for the accommodation of travelers and permanent boarders. Apart from the high social standing which 'Mrs. Bot*L WARE has always held in our midst, and the eminent practical usefulness and be nevolence which have always marked her course, there is perhaps no. lady in the State more justly noted for domestic experience and capability.- Beyond all doubt Mrs. BOULW ABE'S house will be, both for transient and permanent board ers, a resting-place of comfort, cleanli ness, quietude and refinement. We be speak for our popular townswoman the kindest consideration of the public at large. J. H. MCDEVITT, Esq., the School Com missioner for this County, gives notice in to day's issue to Teachers of Free Schools to suspend said Schools until the 1st October next. ?The Free Schools Ought not to be closed thus early, or for so long a term ; but Mr. MCDEVITT could not do otherwise, inasmuch as he cannot obtain fro m the State Treasurer the amount due this County for School purposes, although there has boon an appropriation made and taxes collected to. meet this very de mand.

The Mysterious Murder of Washing ton Faulkner. ? Through the kindness of A. RAMSAY, Esq., Clerk of the Court, we have been per mitted to examine the papers connected with the Inquest held upon the body of . WASHINGTON FAULKNER, who was mur dered at the house of Maj. WILLIAMSON WILLIAMS, in our District, on the night of the 21st of May. Maj. WILLIAMS lives above Dora's Mills, in the Mountain Creek section. It will be remembered that FAULKNER was engaged, shortly before his death, in a Ku Klux affair in Ne A berry. The ob ject of the Ku Klux wrath in this case, was a negro by the name of Sim. Young, a County Commissioner of Newberry, who was shot and slightly injured. And not himself alone, but also his wife and daughter. Neither of the three, however, mortally. Young also shot, and wound ed a man in the knee. This man turned out to be FAULKNER, who unable to '3scape, was arrested and lodged in the Jail of Newberry. Very soon after this, he was released on bail, and seeming to think it wise to get out of the way, set off and on the 19th reached the house of Maj. WILLIAMS, where, on account of his wound, he was obliged to stop. In the Inquest held, on the 22nd May, LEWIS CULBREATH, Esq., Trial Justice, acted as Coroner, while the jury was composed of highly respectable and in . t elligent citizens. The only witnesses in the matter were Mrs. Faiilkner, wife of the murdered' , man, and Mr. J. C. Williams, son of Maj? Williamson Williams. And the evidence brings out nothing new, simply corrobo rating the facts already known to the public That on the night of the 21st, a man, unknown to tho two witnesses, ap peared at Maj. Williams' gate, was re ceived by Mr. J. C. Williams, stated that he had come to inform the wounded man that hs whereabouts was known, begged the loan of a wagon to convey the wound ed man five or six miles further on, and finally requested to see Faulkner. WiL lj ams returned into the houso and stating tho case to Faulkner, asked if he should admit the stranger. Faulkner bade him do so. The stranger entered the room where Faulkner lay, and, Mrs. Faulkner being present, requested to speak pri vately to him. At the behest of Faulk ner, Mr. F. and Mrs. Williams left the room. After remaining a short time with Faulkner, the unknown man emerged and left the house, Mrs. F and Mr. W. then returned to Faulkner, who told them that he believed the man to be his friend, and that he had gone out to bring in a friend whom he (Faulkner) knew. After a short absence, the stranger returned, bringing with him, as far as the gate, another man. Leaving this man at the gate, he again entered the house and re quested to deliver, privately, to Faulk ner a message from his friend at the gate. Upon this, Faulkner again requested his wife and Mr. Wilhams to leave the room, which they did. After another short tarry, alone, in Faulkner's room, the stranger again came forth and re quested Mr. Williams to go out with him to the gate and hold their horses until he and the second man should come in and soe Faulkner together. Mr. Williams went with him, but as he neared the gate saw no horses. As he was in tho act of passing through the gate, four men, all without disguise and unknown to him, suddenly sprang up, three of whom pre sented their pistols to his head, and in formed him that should he attempt to move they would instantly shoot liim dead. Mr. Williams promised to obey their commands. Upon this the first named man and ono of the latter four rushed into the iu>w*e, into Faulkner's room, and fired two shots Into his body. They then came rapidly out of tho house and through thc gate. Simultaneously Mr. Williams wa3 released, and all five mea made off precipitately: Mr. Wil liams hastened to tito house whero he found poor Faulkner a lifeless corpse ox.e shot through his head and another through his thigh. Mrs. Faulkner, having been twice ob liged to leave the roofli, saw and knew but little. Daring the strange man's first absence from Faulkner's room, the latter told her he thought the man a friend, but "he was fearful-of the party.'' We quote from Mrs. F's. evidence. Aud that he, the strange man, was going to bring to hini a^entleman by the name of Taylor, who lived at Saluda Old Town. And that tb? strange man was to move him some m iles farther that night, in a spring wagon, and finally get him off into North Carolina. This is the sum and substance of the evidence, and the verdict of the Jury of Inquest is in accordance. The affair is vory horrible and very mysterious. Wo make no useless sur mises, but await further developments. The Parker Gnu. We direct attention to theciird of PAR KER BROS., manufacturers of tho Parker Breach-Loading, Double Barreled Shot Gun.

The Taxpayers of Edgefield will be de lighted to learn that Gov. Scott has ap pointed Mr. Robert A..Lynch County Auditor. Mr. Lynch, a native of Colum bia, who married a daughter of the late Co!. Bauskett, has lived among us for upwards, of four years, and enjoys the confidence of our people generally. Ho is a conscientious, high-toned gentle man, and will discharge the duties of the office of County Audi&r with exact fair ness both to the State and the taxpayer. Mr. Lynch fills the vacancy created by Gov. Scott's removal of the Hamburg scallawag, Louis Schiller, the unscrupu lous assessor of the peoples' property, who could always find some method of correcting his undue assessments by the enlightening power of five or ten dollars slipped into his vest pocket. This is an other case of "locality" wisely discover ed by Gov. Scott! Mr. Lynch's office will be at this place. It would be churlish in us not to return thanks to Gov. Scott, on the part of the people of Edgefield, for so commendable a removal and so satisfactory an appoint ment. Popular Everywhere. That great favorite Southern Life Insu rance Company-the Piedmont & Ar lington, of Virginia-is still pushing ahead of many other Life Insurance Com panies ; and not' satisfied with its pros perous and proud success throughout the entire South, has entered the Northern and North-Western States with a vim and an indomitable energy that cannot fail to win millions on top of millions of new business. We glory in this deserved prosperity of that grand monarch in Life Insurance-the Piedmo ut <fc Arlington and feel assured that it will go right on increasing in business and popularity until it is conceded the position of lead horse in Life Insurance throughout the broad limits of the United States. We don't profess to be a prophet, but mark our prediction. In glancing over a late number of the Richmond (Va.) Daily Dispatch we find the following, and beg the reader's care ful attention thereto : STILL MOVING AHEAD.-The Piedmont rnd Arlington Life Insurance Company recently opened an agency in Columbus, Ohio, and in less than a week it has re ceived applications for policies for $S1,000, with about 3,000 premiums. It shows how this Virginia enterprise is esteemed for its remarkable solvency, caution, and reliability, when it meets such hearty patronage where people are alive to their own interests, and only places-money where it is safe. Agencies will be speedily pressed for ward in every northwestern State. With in the past few weeks agents have been arranged in all the States and Territories west of the Rocky mountains, and in all the States and Territories east of this line where the company was not before repre sented. It has arranged to enter New York, and is treating with distinguished and experienced agents for the New Eng land States. Soon it will be at work over the entire United States, and stand a monument of that success which will attend diligence and energy. And then the Lexington (Ky.) Daily Press, like everybody else, has a good word in behalf of thc Piedmont & Ar lington, and " talks right out" in the fol lowing strain : " We ask attention to the annual state ment of the Piedmont and Arlington Life Insurance Company of Virginia, which appears in this issue. It is hard to conceive of grcator thrift and more rapid progress than is evidenced in the extraordinary advance of this youthful but already immense corporation. Since its organization in 1SG7, over fourteen thousand policies have been issued, and its assets and accumulations now amount to the splendid total of two and a half millions of dollars. This is indeed a progress. The President, Colonel Wm. C. Carrington, is a Virginian of rare culture, and high attainment, with a reputation for financial and executive ability, almost national, and gathered around him as co-workers in the great enterprise are such men as John C. Breckinridge, President of the Kentucky branch, Mau ray of Louisiana, Johnston of Alabama, ami others of well-known acknowledged .\bility. The Company has just issued a pamp'hlet of twenty-two pages, giving a " full exhibit to the policy holders," of its condition in 1871, which cannot fail to impress all?who read it with tho compre hensiveness of plan and judicious atten tion to detail, which marks the Compa ny's record." As is well known, that worthy gentle man, Mr. M. A. RANSOM, of* Augusta, represents the above-mentioned Compa ny in this section of Carolina. ty Another gang of big Injuns, paint, peace-pipe and wampum, are en route for Washington in the same old style that bas been considered the correct thing for decades past. With every new year the Lo family dig up the hatchet, go trotting round promiscuously, stealing people's hair and roasting the owners without re gard to sex or previous condition, while at the same time haifa dozen goon a visit to the Great Father after treats and treaties, making speeches, which they have with infinite difficulty crammed from Logan's repertory. ? - The Louisiana planters find their 2,000 Chinese hands too few, and send for more. They prefer them to negroes in everything except mule handling. There is a mutual misunderstanding between the mule and the Chinaman. - A brave girl, the daughter of John Fields, of St. Alban's, Vt., entered her father's burning bara last week; and, while the fire was dropping upon her head, burning it to a blister, released several head ol" cattle and three horses. She also wielded an axe with the strength of an athletic man, demolishing a hog pen and driving the inmatcsfrom danger. - General Sherman pretends that he doesn't want tobe J?rp?ident. Ho says his Office is worth more than the Presi dency-that his is a lifo estate, while that of tiic President is only for four years. This is thc way Sherman talks, and yet he knows that Grant lias made the office cf President yield more in cash and real estate in two years than that of General can bo made to yield in twenty, Grocers Everywhere Keep lt.

The Original Stock Life insurance Co. of the United States. OFFICERS: WILLIAM WALKER? President. HENRY J. FURBER, vice-President JOHN H. BEWLEY, Secretary. GEORGE L. MONTAGUE, Actuary. E. W. LAMBERT, M. D., Med. Ex. This Company Offers the Following Important Advantages to those About Effecting insurance on their Lives: 1st. Insurance at Stock Rates, being from 20 to 30 Pei Cent, less than the Rates charged by Mutual Companies. I 2d. Each Policy-holder is regarded as a Stockholder to the extent of one Annual, Premium on his Policy, and will share in the Profits of the Company to the same extent as a Stock holder owning an equal amount of the Capital Stock. , 3d. Every Policy issued by the Company is nonforfeitable, and contains a Clause stating its exact Surrender Value. BEFORE INSURING YOUR LIFE OR ACCEPTING THE AGENCY OF ANY COMPANY REA? THE FOLLOWING: A lengthened experience has demonstrated that the rates of Premium ordinarily charged hy Life Insurance Compames are from twenty-five to thirty per cent, in excess of 'what are necessary for a safe and legitimate conduct of the business. In other words,'carefully and prudently-managed Companies charging "Mutual" rates have been able to return to their policyholders from 25 to 30 percent, of the amount charged for premiums. When Life Insurance Companies were first organized, the reliability of the data upon which the premiums were constructed had not undergone the test of experience. It was thought, therefore, no more than common prudence to adopt a scale of premiums which -would, in any event, meet all the presumed and unforeseen contingencies of the business. . " As long as the matter was involved in some doubt, it was better to fix the rate too high than to incur the risk of making it too low ; because, in the former case, the error could be easily remedied, at least in part, by returning to the policyholders, at certain intervals, such portion of the premium charged as was found unnecessary for the purposes of the business and the complete security of the Company. Experience, however, having satisfactorily demonstrated that these rates are exc?s sive, what possible excuse can tb,ere be for maintaining them ? Availing themselves of this experience, the Directors and Managers of the Universal Life Insurance Company, at its organization, adopted a scale of premiums in accor dance therewith, and which' has proved to be farr and adequate, and all that was necessary to meet the requirements of the business. These premiums are about twenty five per cent, lower than those charged by Mutual Companies. It also appeared, inasmuch as the rates so established were as near as c, Jd possibly be determined fair rates, and not in excess of what Insurance has previously cost the Policyholders in Mutual Companies, that any profits arising from prudent manage mer t" justly and properly belonged to the stockholders of the Company, for the risk incurred by them in undertaking the business. Experience has shown that there are sources of profit in the -practice of the business which theory will not admit of being considered as elements in the calculation of the premiums. These results from a saving in tr>e mortality of the members of a Com pany owing to the medical selection of good lives, a gain in interest on the investments of the Company over that assumed in the calculation of its premiums, the profits derivable from the lapsing and surrender of Policies by the members, and from "other minor sources. Profits from these sources, in a Company possessed of a capital of $200,000, and do ing a fair amount of business, would give to the stockholders dividends largely in ex cess of what were counted on by the Directors of the Universal at the time of its organization. They have, therefore, determined to divide among the policyholders cf the Company a large part of the profits accruing from the sources named, all of which have heretofore been divided among the stockholders. The plan adopted for such division is as follows : Every person who may hereafter insure with the Universal will, for the purposes of division, be treated as a stockhol der to the extent df one Annual Premium upon his Policy ; and will share in the profits of thc Company to precisely the same extent as a Stockholder owing an equal amount of the capital stock. " By this system of Insurance, original with the Universal, the policyholder secures the following important advantages : FIKST. Insurance at thc regular " Slock" rates, requiring a primary outlay of about twenty io thirty per cert, less than that charged by MiUual Companies, and which is equivalent to a yearly " dividend" paid in advance of that amount on mutual rates. This low cost of insurance is worthy of attention. Since its organization this Company has received in premiums from its policyholders the sum of $1,517,000. To effect the same amount of insurance in a Mutual Company would have cost them an initial outlay of $2,000,000. By allowing its policyholders to retain in their own pos session this excess of $483,000, the Universal has virtually paid them a " dividend of $483,000, and paid it, too, in advance, instead of at the end of one or more years. It is impossible to find any example of a Mutual Company furnishing insurance at so low a cost by returning'to its policyholders an equal amount upon similar receipts. SECOND. Participation in the legitimate profits, of thc Company, upon apian which secures to the policyholders the same treatment which Direotors and Stockliolaers award to themselves. This system of participation, in connection with the low " stock" rates of premium, must necessarily secure to the policyholders every possible advantage to be derived from prudent and careful management. The low rates of premium compel economy, abd, independent of participation, guarantee to the policyholder his insurance at a rate which.is not in excess'of the cost m well managed mutual companies ; while, by the proposed plan of participation in what may be considered the legitimate profite of the business, the cost will be still further diminished. Thus by the combined advantages arising from low stuck rate and participation in the profits it is confidently believed that the UNIVERSAL LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY offers insurance at its lowest practicable cost. jJ3T Those of the existing Policyholders who desire to participate in the Profits under the new Plan can do so by making application to-the Head Office, or to any of the Agents of the Company. The Company is in a sound financial condition.
