The solvency of the Company is certified to by the Court Officers of Nelson county, Virginia, and is commended to those who desire to support a 'Home Institution. J. A. MqLEAN, '' At the store of J. A XL B. Stowe. THE OBJECT ^ ^ Of this Company is to insure Lira?not indeed to prolong life?but by paying a certain sum to the beneficiaries of a policy when you die?thereby to continue the exertions, investments and benefits of your life to your dependents, after your life is terminated. However well prepared a man may be in a spiritual point of view to meet the "king of terrors," if he be possessed of a thoughtful mind and a feeling heart, he can but look with sad forebodings to that finale of bis earthly career which is to deprive his fond wife and helpless children of that support and fostering care which his arm has furnished. He shudders as his mental gaze looks within-the gloomy portals of the grave and leaves behind those whom he loved, es vagrants roamingtho friendless, thorny paths of public charity I Vet, alas! how many do it! I when & amaU present out' lay would gild their troublous road with ease and comfort, if spent in a Life Insurance Policy. Reader, are you not liable to this sad death-bed reflection of the unseen trials you bequeath those you leave behind, by neglecting this cheap protection which we now urge upon you T If your mind were easy on this subject; if you could feel when * you "shuffle off this mortal coil" your, ftuhily were provided for, you would be relieved of the car king anxiety that fills every worthy mind at' such fears; you would be better prepared to pursue youf avocation with mental composure said zeal. We do not mean to assert that montty can fill the place of a fond father, yet we do fsert, what you knoto to be true?money will prove heir best earthlv friend when vou are gone: and von can leave them this certain friend now while you are living.' * : ' '' ' l.' Can you?will you refuse it? Business men are considered rather improvident who do not Insure their goods and houses against fire. Now, your house map never be burned?it may stand a hundred years; but your life cannot last so long?your "lamp of lift" must burn'out someday; you argue it is prudent toinsure against uncertain misfortunes to your property, and yet neglect a certain event which will ana must come to your body. Is this consistent wisdom and Srudence? We admit and assert the prudence of ie first, but assert the greater wisdom and necessity for the last. Ask ydureelf the question,Are you doing right to neglect this opportunity to provide effectually tor your family iu case of. jour death, while you have it in your power?' And bear in- mind?now, this moment may be your last chance?death is after you! When once his, "rugged scythe shall clip the brittle thread of life," the ghastly panorama of want and suffering will be opened to the sighing hearts you took, care Qf while you lived, Remember! only while in health?before age, with attendant diseases come upon you? before you begin to loiter in sad sickness on the verge ofthe grave?only while living?mentally an<fphysically living-can you obtaitoa Lift Imtaranoe Policyi Life is a vast battle-field?death is always the final victor?and while we do not urge this process will disarm him of his sting, (for religion only can do that) yet it will soothe your heaving bosom to know you have, provided tor your family before that trying hour'odmdS.' By having your life insured you "disattnthe sting".of poverty and want to them. We imagine now we hear the wail of.suffering from some lone widow, while she examines the merits of-this business, as her . .shivering group stand aronnd her scanty fire afad cry for bread: "Oh! that my husband had insured his life ! If he could have foreseen my lamentable state he would have done so. He was kind and good to all, and supposed that all,would be kina and good to us; but alas, how mistaken! He provided well for us while living; but if he had insured his life, its benefits would have continued to ns now:" Do not say this is a fency sketch, for many such a scene has really existed.
