Adoration. I love my God, but With no lovo of mine, For I have uono lo give; I lovo Thee, Lord, but all tho love is Thine, For by Thy life I live. I am as nothing, and rejoice to be Emptied, aud lost, and swallowed up in Theo Thou, Lord' alone art all Thy children need, And there is none beside; From Thee the streams of blessedness pro ceed, In Thee the blest abide, Fountain-of life, and nil-abounding grace, Our source, our centre and our dwelling place ! New Insurance Building. The contractor Mr. 11. W. Johnson, will in a few days break ground for the new building of the Southern Life In Burancc Company, on the corner of Richardson and Washington street The edifice will be substantial and orna mental to the Main street. The cotnpa ny met on Thursday, when the follow ing board of officers of the South Coro lina branch of tho Atlanta department of the ?Southern Life Insurance Cotnpa ny was announced. President, Richard ?'Nenle; vice president, J I' Southron, sccctary, John Taylor, medical cxnmin er, R W Taylor, attorneys, Racbman & Youmaus, executive committee, It D Senn, R 0 Shiver, Johnson 11 ago od, John R Moore John S R rat ton, W (' Swnffield, John C Scogars, F W Me Mas tcr, John'J'Sloan, Jr. The Southern Life starts out under the most flattering auspices, and it only rests now with our people to patronize it worthy of its de scrts. Wc have seen the grand plan of the buildiug. It wilj bo one of the most imposing and beautiful architectural ornaments in the city. This edifice will be the chief ollicc for the depart irent of South Carolina, and presided over by the genera 1 agents, Messrs Hagood and llcntleii, whom we wol come in our midst, and who have alrea dy won by the most partial- sentiments of all who have met them. We wish for the company continued prosperity. Wc found the office of tho Southern Life Insurance Company in the Central National Rank building, Plain strcot crowded on yesterday with appreciative and admiring listeners to the well tim cd remarks of General Colquitt, whose suggestions in relation to the sustuiniTg of homo insurance companies were manifestly effective.?Columbia Union Herald. Stray Thoughts. Wbcu a man has a good opinion of himself, be will hardly find any to agree with him. It is better to have contentment than wealth or fame or honor. The good man has resources of hap piness under ail circumstances. Tlx o evil man has a thorn in bis pillow? though it bo of down. Wc should not only clo all the good that is in our power, but we should also prevent all the evil wc can. No man is very bad j who loves music and little children. The most of men pass for all that they are worth, and some for a great deal more than their true value. Every man has friends who deserves them; but every man is not successful who seems to be worthy of success. A good conscience is a priceless treas tire. A Lawyer. It is related of George Clarke, the celebrated negro minstrel, that being examined as a witness, be was severely interrogated by the attorney who wish cd to break down bis evidence ''You are in ibo negro minstrel business, I believe:" inquired tho law ycr. "Yes sir," was tho prompt reply. "Isn't that rather u low calling !" dc manded the attorney. "I don't know but what it is, sir,' replied the minstrel, 'but it is*so much bct'er than my father's* that I am rath cr proud of it.' 'What was your father's calling?' ?IIo was a lawyer !' replied Ci uk, in a tone of regret that put the audi once in Ja roar. Tho lawyer let him alone. A man in the Philadelphia insane asylum inagines himself a woman. lie dresses him sell in fomalo attire and parts his hair in tho middle. During tho day bo associates with females and doc3 sewing and ombroidery of tho finest kind. IIo has bcon reserved for tbo Ccntcnial. DR. E. J.
