The Railroad Prospect Brighter than
Ever Before.
At a Railroad Meeting held at this place
sokne two months back it will bo remem
bered that two Committees were appoint
ed to-woi-iC in the interest of the matter.
O? Monday last, one of these Committees
opened their books for subscriptions ;
arid we are very happy to announce that
tua spirit and liberality manifested on
this occasion make the prospect of a Rail
road between--.Edgefield and tho-Pine
House fir brighter than it has ever been
before. In fact, judging from all we have
seem and heard, we are strongly of the
opinion that the $30.000, .considered ne
cessary to Degin with, will be subscribed
before another week has passed: And
when the Road shall have reached our
viUage, who doubts very seriously that
it will be soon extended to intersect the
Greenville <fe Columbia Road at New
Market or Ninety Six ? Believe us, the
people on the proposed route between
this point and New Market or Ninety
Six, are neither so poor in money, in en
terprise, or in brains,' as not to promptly
forward a Road so fairly started.
But more in future on this- all-impor
tant subject, when we shall in all proba
bility have something more actually tan
gible* to announce. For the present,.suf
ficefifrto say that men of enterprise have
taken hoM of the matter, and are sub
scribing their money. If there are grum
blers and do-nothings in the premises,
we say emphatically let them be ignored,
frowned down, ixampled out. Forthey
would sit and: see Edgefield delivered
over forever to bats and oyls.
"Let ns Sustain our own Life En
terprise.'' *
Thus, speak Messrs LAVAL, & ABNEY;
elsewhere in this week's Advertiser, as
General Agents of the Cotton States Life j
Insurance Company. This 'card, if w<
mistake not, was written by our keen
and clear-headed fellow-citizen, Dr. M.
Wi ABNEY, who has, iii theory and in
practice, studied the subject of Life In
surance well and thoroughly. When Dr.
ABNEY writes so lucidly and so forcibly
concerning the high-toned Company^
which'he represerts, there remains but
little necessity for us to say anything.
We hope this card of the Cotton States
Company, a most worthy and first class
Company, .will be attentively persued by,
the .whole public of Edgefield.
The COurt.
The Court of Sessions convened at this
place on Monday last, Judge MELTON in
attendance. In the beginning, a discus
sion arose as to the legal status of the
Grand Jury present-whether,-being
drawn under the old Jury law, they
could rightly serve. It was decided they
could not, and they were dismissed. In
consequence of this thero is no Grand
Jury, and of course no bills can be given
out. To day (Tuesday) the Court is em
ployed upon certain minor criminal cases
J eft over from former terms. "We are
informed that Judge : MELTON intends
t lying as few Jury cases as possible ; in
fact that he will probably dismiss the
Juries this afternoon, that they maybe
off to their farms and plantations, wield
ing their strong arms against the danger
ous and aggressive grass.
The business of the term must neces
sarily, under the circumstances, be con
fined to equity business, and as this can
not be begun until next week, the Judge
and lawyers, will probably lie upon their
oars for the remainder of the present ?
week.
A Visit to Lapland.
To acheive this feat you have only to
step into MARKEKT ?fe CLISBY'S Drug
Store,- where the whole atmosphere is
ct oled to/the temperature of Lapland by
the newly-arrived Soda Fount-a huge
and magnificent affair, upon a novel and
much "inproved plan. From one side
flows Iced Soda Water, of all colors,
wiile from the other side is dispensed
Iced Ale, ?fcc. Picture to yourselves the
glory of the thing i These??ati tildes have
verily not seen the like ! .Dives, or Solo
mon, or Nebuchadnezzar, or any of those
bad old men who lived in purple and
gold, never dreamed of anything so
splendid !
And great is the rush of the heated
crowd to it. But there is room for all
and Soda for all-and Ale for all-and
Ice for all. Truly the destruction of the
Vendome Column caused no greater ex
citement in Paris, than has the arrival of |
MARKERT <fe CLISBY'S Soda Fount in
Edgefield.
The Ready Saw Mill.
At first glance, every one will of course
say "theready saw mill." Well, that
vo'uld be hitting the nail spank on the
head, but still we didn't mean that. We
meant the grand new Saw Mill recently
established by our popular fellow-citizens
Messrs. WILLIAM <fc SAM READY, near
the old Ready placo on the Columbia
road. Soe their advertisement in another
column, and know from this time forth
forevermore that if you want Lumber j
they aro men to be applied to and de
pended upon.
Wielding his Right Arm for Jas.
Gray Se, Co.
We were glad yesterday to meet our
young friend Mr. EDWARD QUATTLE
BATJM, who is among us for a few days,
in the interest of that great Augusta
Firm, JAS. A. GRAY it Co, with whom he
is now acting as a salesman. Of the said
firm wc say nothing, inasmuch as it is
almost as well known and loved in Edge
field?? the Advertiseritself is. Of Mr.
QUATTLEBAUM, we would say he is a son
of Gen!. PAUL QUATTLEBAUM of Lex
ington, and a nephew of our own Capt.
LEWIS JONES. He is a polished gentle
man, and thoroughly experienced in his
line of business. We. congratulate our
old friends of the house of JAK A. GRAY
& Co. upon securing the services of a
young gentleman who is strong alike in
Edgefield, in Lexington, and in Colum
bia. '
What is the U*e?
There, in another column,' stands the
advertisement of Glenn Springe. And
what is thc use to say more? For every
lx>dy knows that the Glenn Springs water
in undeniably the best sulphur water in
the world. As to the Hotel, it is kept in
elegant style. And Glenn Springs, this
summer, bids fair to be tho place of |
places !
Corsican in Augusta.
As before announced, this famous horse
of Col. BACON was to have run three
quarters of a mile, in Augusta,'last week,
against " John Kendrick," a well known
home belonging'to Mr. J. W. CRAWFORD.
But'the latter gentleman receded from
that distance, paying the forfeit of ?500,
and made another race for a half mile
a match, like tho race first proposed, for
$2,900.' Corsican won this race by 10 or
12 lengths-time 50i seconds. Corsican,
wiro wears the distinction of having made
the best time on record as a mile and a
quart?i* horse, had hover before been en
tered in a half-mile contest.
We have heard that Mr. CRAWFORD,
since this race, has sold "John Kendrick"
for $300. .

Important to Dealers in Real Estate.
At the last session of the Legislature
an Act was passod en?tled " An Act to
Further Amend an Act Entitled "An
Act Providing for the Assessment and
Taxation of Property," and in that Act
we find the following paragraph, to which
we would call the particular attention of
parties purchasing lands :
Amend Section 90 by adding:. "And
.MtividecL/ further, That each County Au
ditor shall keep ? record of all sales of
conveyances of real property made in his
County, in which he shall enter, in col
umns, the naines of the purchaser and
seller, the quality of land conveyed, the
location and price of the same, and there.
from correct the County duplicates an
nually ; and for the purpose of carrying
out this provision, the Clerks of Courts
and Registers of Mesne Conveyance of
each County are hereby required to have j
the endorsement of the County Auditor
on each and every deed of conveyance
for real property, that the same is on
record in his office, ^before the same can
be placed on record in the offices of said
Clerks of Courts or Registers of Mesne
Conveyances, and tho said County Audi
tor shall be entitlod to collect a fee of'
twenty-five cents, for his own use, for
making such entry and endorsement"
From the above it will be seen that it
is necessary to have the endorsement of
the County Auditory upon each deed of
convoyance, "that the same is on record
in his office,"'before the Clerk of Court
|pan record the deed in the Clerk's office.
Mr. R. A. LYNCH, at this place, is the
Auditor, and will take pleasure in ma
king the necessary endorsement on your i
land*papers, or in transacting any other j
busing you may have in his office.
Eminent Fra it-ti rowers.
Eminent fruit-growers are our highly
esteemed friends Capt. RICHARD WARD
and Capt. Ci. :NT WARD, pere et fits. In
fact they both have those inherent Eng
lish tastes which make country life so
channing, and such a scene of beauty
and abundance. Already Capt. CLINT
has bestowed upon us a box of luscious
Peaches-some clingstone, some clear
stone-all ripe and blushing. Conceive
of the flutter in the Advertiser office
when the treasures of this box were re
vealed. Our best thanks upon paper,
Captain, until we shall be able to see you
face to taco.
Some ten days ago Mr. RICH.
CLARY, living near Big Creek, in this
District, caught a negro man in the act j
of shooting one of his hogs. The negro
didn't carry any fresh pork home with
him-but the doctor probed his wound,
picked out a handful of shot, and says
the said wouid-be-hog thief will not be
of much service in the crop until about j
the cotton-picking season.
A Correction.
We cherfully give place to the follow
ing communication, which explains it
self:
AUGUSTA, Ga., May, 31, 71.
MR. EITOR-Bear Sir : We noticed in
reading your valuable paper a few days
3ince that you had made an error in your
supposition that the vehicles owned by
Mr. GLOVER and Dr. HILL were pur
chased from Mr. JESSUP of this place.
The vehicles refered to, were purchased
from us, and as it is probable that your
supposition might bii accepted by many
3f your readers as a feet, we ask as a
i fovor that you make the correction.
Truly yours,

Texas, but was unfavorably impressed

#SB* Gloomy reports of the crops have
been received from Pulaski, White,
Woodruff and Jackson counties, Arkan

many plantations have been plowed up

This Company Offers the Following important Advantages to those
About Effecting Insurance on their Lives:
1st. Insurance at Stock Rates, being from 2? to 30 Per
Cent less than the Rates charged by Mutual Companies.
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-1
holder owning an equal amount of the Capital Stock.
3d. Every Policy issued by the Company is non-forfeitable,
and contains a Clause stating its exact Surrender Value.
BEFOEE INSURING Yous LIFE OR ACCEPTING THE AGENCY OF ANY
COMPANY
READ THE FOLLOWING :
A lengthened experience has demonstrated tjiat the rates of Premium ordinarily
charged ny Life Insurance Companies 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 pradently-managed Companies charging "Mutual" rates have
been able to return to their policyholders from 2o to. 30 per cent, of the amount charged
for premiums. ' .
When Life Insurance Companies were first organized, the reliability of the data
I upon which the premiums .were constructed had not undergone the test of experience,
i It was thought, therefore, no more than.common prudence to adopt a scale of premiums
I which w?ula, 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.4prmcr case, the error
could be easily remedied, at least ir. 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 ?nd the complete security of the Company.
Experience, however, having satisfactorily demonstrated that these rates are exces
sive, what possible excuse can there be f<?r 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 fair and adequate, and all that was
necessary to meet the requirements of the business. These premiums are about twenty
five pej cent, lower than those charged by Mutual Companies.
It also appeared, inasmuch as the rates so established were as near.as could possibly
be determined fair '.ites, and not in excess of what Insurance has previously cost the
Policyholders in Mutual Companies, that any profits arising from prudent manage
ment 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 the 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 tluvt assumed in the calculation, of its premiums, the profits
derivable from the lapsing and surrender bf 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 of
the Company a lar^e 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 a? 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 of one Annual Premium upon his Policv ; and will share in the profits
of the Company to precisely thc 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 :
FIRST. Insurance at the rey>/.'. ir " Stock" rates, requiring a primary outlay of
about twenty to thirty per cent, less than that charged by Mutual Companies, and
which is equivalent to a yearly " dividend" paid in advance of that amount on mutual
rates. Tins low cost of insurance is worthy of attention. Since its organization this
Company has received in premiums fronvits policyholders the sum of $1,517,000. * To
effect the same amount of insurance hi 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 o? ??188,000, the Universal has virtually paid them a " dividend of
$483,000, and naid it, too, in advance, instead of at the end of one or nr re years. It
is impossible io 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 legitwiale pro?ts of the Company, upon apian which
secures to the policy holders the same treatment which Directors ana Stockholders award
to themselves. This system of .participation, in connection with the low " stock" rates
of premium, must necessarily secure tc the p>olicyholders every possible advantage to
be derived from prudent and careful management.
The low rates of premium compel economy, and. independent of participation,
guarantee to the policyholder his insurance at a rate which is not in excess of the cost
ni well managed mutual companies ; while, by tin- propused plan ol' participation in
what may be considered t' e legitimate prjfits ot' the busmen, the cost will be still
further diminished.
Thus bv the combined advantages arising fruin lo\v stork rat? ana participation ir
the profits it fe confidently believed that the UNl-VELSAL LISE INSUHANCE
COMPANY offers insurance at its low?st practicable obst.
?E??2?T Those of the existing Poli' -helder* who desiro to participate in the Profits
under the new Plan can do so by m....ing application to the Head Office, or to any of j
the Agents of the Company,
Thc Com])any is in a sound financial condition.
