GUARDIAN MUTUAL LIFE INSURANCE COM?
PANY.-ThisU the mme of a flourishing New York
Ufe insurance company wblch has adopted soveral
new features Into Es plan.
By a recent enactment of the Legislature of tho
State of No v York, the charter of tho company ha i
been so altered tint the entire profits of tbe com?
pany will be returned to the poli y holders. The non?
forfeitable principle is applied to all its premiums,
and is embodied ii tue watten policy. Loans or
credits in anticipation of dividends aro granted to
the amount of one-third of each annual premium,
and such loans aro indorsed upon the policy, no
notes being required. It bas now assets to the
amount of $1,600,000, and that amount is rapidly in?
creasing. Mr. Walton H. Peckham, of New York, ls
the President, and the list of dhectors contains some
-of the best names in business in th's country. Mr.
G. A. Fudiokar, tho superintendent, is at present in
Savannah, haying passed through this city a few
days ago. Mr. Geo. Keim, thc general agent tor this
State, and Mr. It. Issertol, the agent for <-hario3ton,
are popular and activo men, and will doublions ra?
pidly advance tho interests of the company. Dr,
Reentfjerna, thoexamiuing physician, is a resident
of this city, and lia s his office io Hasol-strset near
the Postoffl.ee.
THE CHARLESTON HOTEL.-To say that tho
Charleston Hotel is tbe hanJtomest hotel in the
city would be doing injustice to its magnificent pro?
portions and imposing appoaranco. It is the hand?
somest hotel in tho South, and it) appearance will
compa-o favorably with that of any hotel of the
name size in any of tho large Northern cities, The
men who built it were Cliarlcstontans, and they
were determined to make it woithy cf the name it
wasdes ined to hoir, and they succeeded. Charles
toiftnay well bo proud of t ic Charleston Hotel. For
many years now it lins represented her hospitality
and her enterprise, nur] has piven to thousands of
strangers their mest ia*tiag impressions of thc city,
and tho hundreds ol' Northerners now daily passing
through tho city on prospo ting tours on pleasure
triLS form much higher opinions of the wealth ard
importance cf Charleston on account of its having
such a splendid hotol, than they would if they wore
compelled to stay a. a se-jond or tblrd class house.
It is thoreforo ol ihe greatest Importance to the city
that the Charleston Hotel should bo in tho hands of
a compote:;t manager, for it ls not every man who
can keep an hotel, und tho lair fame and reputation
of the city might suffer by its principal hotel falling
into tba hr.nds of an incompetent person. On this
account somo anxiety his boen felt in tho communi?
ty to know who would Bacce d Major Horbach. That
ansie y ls relieved this morning by the announce?
ment that Mr. E. H. Jackson has assumed the man
ageracni. Mr. Jackson ia weil known ns an enter?
prising and competent business man, and there can
bo no doubt that uador his supt riutendonce the
. "Charleston" .will ever maintain and improve its
well merited reputation as a first-class hotol.
COTTON CHANGING! ROUTE.- WO take tho fol?
lowing paragraph from tho HuntsviUe (Ala.) Demo
o rat;
A gentleman in'orms ub that North Alabama cot?
ton ls beginning to chango its route to New Yoik
rrom the railroad via Cincinnati to the rall and sea
route via rbi ri os ton. '1 he reason of thia change is
plainly indicated in the following rates of freight on
tho several routes: 'ihe freight via Cinciuna 1, we
Understand, la $1 75 per 100 pounds, and via Norfolk
$1 Cb, and via Charleston ?142. Other things being
equal, the cheapest route is sore to toke the freight
Ihe route via Cincinnati ls oil rail; to Norfolk and
Charleston, ref poe lively, all rail, and thence to New
York by steamer?. If the railroads on the North ern
route do not reduce their schedules, Charletton will
bear o?r the palm.
Wo rr ay add that large quantities of freight are
being shipped daily from New York to Memphis
and other points in the Weat by way of Charleston.
BULLING COTTON.-The editor oi the New?
berry Herald gives the following lively sketch of the
exploits of a party of Newborn ans:
Arriving in Charleston, these irrepressible New.
berry bulls went among the bears and f JUght lt out
to the tone of $15.010 or $30,000, purchasing, in lots,
over a thousand bales, and dis o sing of the aame to?
gether with .previous transactions, at a premium of
from ten to eighteen dollars per bale. One lot par*
i chased was a rise of four hundreJ bates. The Charles,
ton cotton market on Saturday afternoon WAS the
most excited that wo had seen in a long time. Many
?of the sales wer? effected without samples. Tho mar?
ket closed that night in a Jubilee-both buyers and
?enera satte ned-the former with a oort in prospect
of a further rise, and the latter with their successes.
Much ot the cotton bought by newberry was from
the Jaegers," and to them resole. That's the way
to buy-whon the market's a little dull, at all avant*
ere the staple has reached Ita maximum, for after
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT.-Tho thanks of THE
NEWS aro due to tho Spartanburg wnd I'ulon Rail?
road for papero received.
THE THEATRE.-There WEB an excoltent house
last ovculng to witness tho "Colleen Bawu." Tho
audience wore decidedly pleased with tho acting
and gave it oe.thu8'nstlc reception. To-night is tho
hone?t of Harry Watkins, when tho liish drama of
"Kathleen Mavourneen'* will be glveu with appro?
priate scenic accompaniments.

THE PROPOSED POLICE SYSTEM.-Thc Police
bill which has beou introduced imo Council has
some capilal leatures, aud somo that aro highly ob?
jectionable. Among ibo first may bo enumerated
the great reduction iu tho espouse of the force to
thociiy, the high quahflcations required for u po?
liceman, Ui6 demand of a ceiUflcata from thro3 re?
sponsible citizens, arjd thc privilege oho wo 3 to busi?
ness men cf employing a private watchman who
shall havo tho sane autLority as a policeman. On
thc other hmd tho idea of making a street inspector
out of tho captain of police and fire marshals out of
the lieutenants, is rather preposterous. Thc legiti?
mate dui toa of police officers with tho additional
work of detectives is sufficiently onerous without
piling on that of separate and entirely distinct
offices. Tho reduction of the salarie? of the officers
is another objection. To obtaiu men competent to
do the work assigned by this bill, or oven tho regu?
lar police duty BOW Blrvred by double the number of
officers, a Irgher salary must bo offered. A good
clerk in a rotail dry poods store, in King-street, can
make $1200 a year, and it ie absurd to suppose that
a man with the brains and energy necessary to
make a co mpetcnt captain of po'icc will work for
tte sa U.C amount But, perhaps, the most objee
tiouablc feature cf thc whole hillls, probably, the
provision for employing fifty men exclusively for
night duty. They will do soire othsr work in the
day. and be sleeping on their posts at Light. It
would bo.better far to add twenty-five to the regular
force, lt would then be moro competent and mau
ageable, and cf course mo.e efficient.
INSTALLATION OF THE NEW PRESIDENT OP THE
/ETNA STEAM FIEE ENGINE COMPANY.- 1 he regular
monthly meeting of the ?Etna Ste tm Fire Engine
Corni any took place at their hall last evening. After
the dispatch of the business of the evening, a com
mit tee, consist?as o< I. 8. K. Ellsworth (the oldest

I. B. Forbes and T. J Lyonp, was appointed to wait
upon Major E. Willis, who had been recently chosen
to preside over the company, and conduct bim to
the hall. After the 1 .pse of a few minutes they re?
turned with the new i res;dent, whose entrance was
the signal for long, loud and repeated cheers. The
chairman of the committee introduced bim to the
company and the retiring president, Mr. J. A
Quickeubusb, who received hun in generous terms
and congratulated bim oa his el vation to the sos!
tion he was about to assume. He Iben stated to him
the conditio n of the company, and closed with
warm and complimentary welcome. Major Willis
replied in eloquent and grateful terms, thanked
them for the selection of him as their president, and
be gged to assure them that hs would always serve
them to the very best of bis energy and ability, and
further, as far as it would lie in his power, the w iskes
and interests of the company. Great applause fol
lowed the extremely pertinent remarks of the new
president, and, after lt had subsided, tbs folding
doora of the ball were thrown open, and a fine coila
hon wis displayed, to which ample justice was done
Speeches were made by the retiring president and
the ono elect, the repr?sentative of THE NEWS, other
invited guests, and members or other organization
The evening was most agreeably parsed.

*3~ THE MACHINE, CALLED MAN, IS A
very complicated and delictte one, and is more lia?
ble to get out of order, and much more difllcult to
repair, than soy combination of wheels and cranks
an 1 levers made by the hands of man. As a rule, it
is tinkered too much, and badly tinkeied at that. It
is often calemolizod, norcot zed, depleted, and oth?
erwise misused, when a'l that it really needs is a
wholesome tonic and restorative like HOS TETTER'S
STOMACH BITTERS to put lt in proper trim and
keep lt so. The stomach is shamefully maltreated.
In .he first place, the food which its juices are in?
tended to dissolve, is too frequently thrown into it
hastily, and in a half-masticated condition, in which
state tho gastric acid cannot properly act upon it.
The result is dyspepsia. Thea comes the doctor,
and, finding the digestiv* organs weak and the bow?
els inert, ho prcceeda to weaken and paralyze still
more with drastic purgatives. These tending-as
they always do-to produce a salutary change, he
tells tho invalid that medical science can do no more
for him. This, with all duo deference, is a m istake
ono of those mistakes whio'i Talleyrand said wore
tantamount to crimes. Wbat the dyspeptic needs it
invigoration. Strengthen the stomach with H03
TETTER'6 BIT lERS, and the stomach will strength?
en every other port of the human machino, and
make it, in common parlance, as good as now. Upon
the stato of the digestion deponds, in a measure, the
condition of thc whole system. Now, the Bitters are
the most admirable toni? known, They consist of
the finest vegetable invigorants and restoratives,
combined with an unadulterato < stimulant. Tho
dyapoptic needs rothlng else to effoct a cure, except
o light, nutritious diet, and a fair amount of exor?
cise. Even in the abecnoe of those lost mentioned
accessories, the tonio and alterativo properties of
the prepaiation will wo k wonders, enabling the
dyspeptic to digest inferior fare with comparative
ease, and to maintain a good habit of body, in spite
ai the drawbacks of a sedentary occupation.
