The Macon Journal gives the, following ao eonnt of a fiendish outrags committed by ne A - groe? in Georgia: ? It appears that on Thursday last, two re I apectabh young girls residing near Station 14, "upon the Central Hoad, were on their way homo from school, wben they were overtaken by two atout negroes, who immediately seized them, and despite their screams for aid. com? mitted a diabolical outrage. Haring effected their brutal deed of violence, one of the ne Stoes, who had bnt one arm, shook the rauti ted stump of the other in the faoo ot the eldest of the two Rina, and exclaimed : 'T j want my revenge aud Tax bonud to hare " it When I belonged to your father I ran away, he followed me to the woods and shot mA. and I had to loee thia arm; do you see it? How Pm bound to get even with him. and drawing his pocket knife, he severed her arm entirely from ber body, between tho wrist aud elbow joiut. Tbe two" scoundrels then broke ?"?away and rao for th) woods. Very fortunately the gula had presence of mind enough to tie the mutilated arm tightly above ute elbow ' nc til medical aid could be procured, and it ? barely possible that the yoong- sufferer's life may be spired. Tho news of this deed of violence ran lise wildfire alf through the neighborhood, and m a ahort time a mounted patrol was organized, who volunteered to go in pursuit of the scoun? drels. They soon found one of them, whom they questioned light sharply, but somehow or other the negro got lost somewhere in the 1 adm'1'*1' tbe P*rly returut;d home without - TM other, and by far the worst of the two, rooeeededin eaeaping from-thaw neighborhood and made his way toward Macon. We are in Formed that a negro answering his description .'iraaLaapp. at a place known as Sandy Bottom, ^?lifiW?aJ hight laut, and vestejrdaj the police were?? hot search after bim, a reward of five hundred dollarvrharing been offered for his ?a pt ure. SOUTHERN LUE INSURANCE OOM PANT. ? .."?-. - . . . ? . Vetter ft sam Generad J. B. Gordon. if S1? [From the Atlanta ConeHrution.1 2b the Settlor of the Constitution: Ton have generously tendered the nee of your columns, that I may reply to a anal ic ions attack, made by the Insurance Timos, ot New York, upon an ' institution with which many honorable gentlemen in this and other Southern States are connected. Until suggested by friends not connected with the Southern Life Insurance Company -the institution assailed-I had not thought lt necessary to reply, and for the foUowing J Fn-st. Ail the agents of the Southern Life had been directed'to use tbe article io question ai the best canvass ng document with wbieh they could be armed. U In the next place, I had supposed that a . journal which bad no regard for truth, and the endorsement of which Is a matter of mere bar? gain and sale, would produce no other effect by ita attacks than the one realized, viz : tho . strengthening ot the "Southern, Life." I had supposed that no Sont hern man could be influenced by the statements of a jauraal which had published, as I had shown io a for? mer card, twelve* wilful unmitigated fabc hoods, in the short space ot sixteen hoes. In the next place, it bad occurred to me, that the very animus of this editor, which is so patent, hw hatred of everything Southern, his contemptible thrust at the incapacity of ? the Sou tb ern people to manage hie insurance, his meek suggestions in another article of the same paper, that all Southern and Western companies give op the business of life insur? ance to the Morth, and his complaint of oar elannhnesw, because, forsooth, we presumed to retain Southern money in Southern States, would have been a suaficient answer for every Southern mau. For these reason s I thought it unnecessary to write. At tbe suggestion ot friends, how? ever, ? reply brierly. 11? Times evidences its ignorance of facts, ar its total disregard of troth, or both, by its reference to General Gordon F. Granger as .gent for this company, lt- is, however, as well support ed here as elsewhere in its article. - General Granger has not now, nor never had, any connection whatever with this company. The Times says the losses of the boothera life have been heavy, and compares it with certain picked companies from the North. The losses have peen heavy, bnt the busi? ness has been heavy too. Ii a merchant does - ons million of profitable business, does he not expect greater loss rn bad debts, Ac, than ' another who does one-tenth of the business? ' Jin Lite Company insures 6000 lives, most it ' not have, of necessity, a larger number jf its insured die,, than another which insures 500 lives? The Southern Life lost more thao its picked company-the Great Western-bat it did vast? ly more business. Wby did not the editor of | the Times give thc amonot of the business done by each, the amount of loss by each, and then d/aw the comparison? Does not the merest child in figures understand this to be the only way to get at the ratio of loss ? Yes; bot it did not suit the purpose of the Times. .Lei the tacts be known. This picked company is shown bv the New York reports of 1868 to have received $60,347, Autd to have paid out the same year in cash, ii 10417. Thus expending absolutely over 18000 more than it received. Wbde the Atlanta De? partment ou gross premiums to the amount of nearly $200,0-0, spent in losses and expanses of every description on ly ,39 per cent, ot its re? ceipt?, ?nd the whole company increased its assets- in six months-over $126,000. | Besides, the Times knows, as every insurance man doe J, that losses equalize themselves io the course of ye ara-so that tbe general average is pre? served. This ia the foundation of all Ufe. tablea. Aa iUontrative of this, the Atlanta De-* ptrtment, in its immense business, receiving nearlv one thousand applications, has sustain? ed bot one loss-Amos E. Ward-for $10 000 sinoe its organization, and the other depart? ments losing in bot little greater ratio. Her ce, the heavy accumulation. Yet. in the estima? tion of the Times, the Southern Life is un? sound, and the Great Western perfectly good. "Why so? The animus of the article furnishes the solu? tion. The one is Southern-t he otber Northern. Again, this J tonest eheet, seeing the absurdi? ty ot ita position, seeks to stab the Southern Life by attackin* the integrity of its officers. J,t says the statement of our assets is "cooked Up"-that is, fited up to deceive- not true, in otber words, the? officers of the company, in swearing tome, statement of assets'and lia? bilities, swore 'falsely-perjoed themselves. Does he intimate that by any possibility the officers ol his pet companies could "cook up" statements? No. How is Uns? A pain, the animus of his paper furnishes the reply. One aet of officers are Soulhern-the otber North em. ' ".The Times says the Southern Life is one on the high road to bankruptcy, but its pete are alt sound. What do t he figures show? That the 8antfaerd Life has $300 for every $100 of liability, while the largest companies ?D the North have less than $150 of liability; yet, in the'eetitnation of the limes, the Southern Lifo is bankrupt, And his companies perfectly sound.- How so ? Again, let the animus ol that paper answer. The one is Southern-the other Northern. The gist ot tfie controversy is this-whether officers of Southern companies swear falsely, and officers cf Northern companies truthfully. Whether the gentlemen whose reputations are i den ti fled wiib this institution are to be be? hoved, or the Tunes. Or, if outside testimo? ny is preferred, the Times, or the Southern press. The Times Bays the Southern Life is -"tctally ?naonosln The Memphis Appeal save: "Its assets are now over $500 OOO. ? * * * It deserves the patronage of the Southern people, and its Vmr?u?. .lu.? ?lut it ;" "ot?;nr, ?? XXI JV Tbe Memphis Avalanche is equally eJetmg tn its endorsement The Atlanta ioAe%enoer aays: "-Thia com? pany, we do not hesitate to say. is one of tbe moot reliable aa well as successful in not only the South, but the whole country." The Constitution says: "By ita teiiabilily, liberal features, audits patmtic object, it ia acht eying a success unparalleled in the annals of life insurance."1 The louisville Courier says: "TPWi ample capital and Ltrge surplus, it at once guaran? tees to policy-holders perfect security "and urges Boat hem people to patronize it, because it retains the money at home. I might IUI whole columns with extracts from leading journals in South Carolina and elsewhere, but these m ty answer for an offset tx the Times- possibly. Tbe Tunea, however, char ?res that we pay for these puffs 1 But is the Times paid for its puff) ? Oh, no. These Journals can be bought; the Times cannot. How is this? Plainly, the answer must be-these are Southern, that Northern. _ But I deny that one cent waa eyer paid for any endorsements I have quoted. I did pa; some of the Southern papers to insert a former card in reference to this s .me card; others would receive notbit g. I propose to conti au 3 to pay to get these facts before the people. Tb i Southern Life ie able ti pa j ; it will make money by spreading them before the country, and it will continue to do it. The Tunes will find, I imagine, that it bas undertaken a difficult task in trying to teach the people of these States that there are not brains or integrity enough in tbe South to manage life insurance; that the officers cf this company, at Memphis, have swern falsely; men whose high and responsible poeitioos as railroad and bank presidents radicated the un? limited confidence of the country in their com? mon 8eose. integrity and financial ability. It will not be easy to convince the South that the long hst of Southern gentlemen connected with this institution are engaged in a grand scheme to defraud the widows and orphans of the South; or that they will settle less fairly witb policy-holders than companies from the Time?' section-some of whom boast of accumulated millions by tbe forfeiture of rebel policies who bave one price for the North, another for the South, and who have endeavored to pur? chase tbe policies of rebel widows for a con? temptible pittance of tbe sum insured. He mistakes) the Southern people when he supposes tbem so ignorant of life insurance as to believe a company from tbe North, with lees than $150 or assets to $100 of liability, is stroogtr and safer than a Southern company, which bas 1300 for every $100 or liability. Or when be imagines tbe South so North-struck as to believ?, because a company hails fiona that section, it can pay ita president, as a sal? ary, $25 000 ot the pol'cy-holder?' money, and another offers agenta forty five per cent, com? missions, and yet be more economically and better managed than a Southern company which pays its president-who in financial ability is the peer of any-only $3000, and its best agents less than one-half of the above commission: or that a company from tho North, which pays fifty to fifty-seven per cent, to its stockholders, is better for tho insured tban tbe Southern Life, which, notwithstand? ing its rapid accumulations, his not paid one j douhrAo ita stockhcMers. but has paid fort]/per j cent to its policy-holders. The Ka? hagan the war upon Southern in? stitutions, and strikes the Southern Life only because it is the pioneer. The success of this company bas checked the drain of money from our section, hence the limes' complaint ot sec? tionalism. We make our bauble acknowledg? ments of belog intensely sectional, if an honest effect to retaiu Southern money at home be sectional. _ In conclusion, I acknowledge my indebted? ness to the Times tor the opportunity he bas afforded for getting these tacts before the pei - pie. The Southern Life invites its further at? tacks. If tba solid assets of this company, and its patriotic purposes, do not commend it to the confidence and support of our people, it will never ask the aid of the lurnea. If such ?beets can destroy tbe ?nfldence of the South ern people in the directors and stockholder s of J this company, then, indeed, have these gentle? men lived to little purpose.

FROM WBICH MANKIND SUFFER H Bj over a large part of tbe globe, is tho . ^?L^A^T M consequence of a diseased action in BJ"Ttbe system, induced bv the poison B Bf ions miasm or vegetable di cay This _JBa_ exhalation is evolved l y the action M ~~ of solar heat on wet soil, and rises W with the watery vapor fi om it. While the sun is below the horizon this vapor lingers near the earth's surface, and the virus . is taken with it through the langs uro the blood.* Tbere it acts ax an irritating poison on tbe internal viscera and excreting organs of the body. The liver becomes torpid and fails to secrete not only this virus, but also the bile from the blood. Both the virus and the bile accumulate in the circu? lation, and produc? vio ent constitutional disorder. Tbe spleen, the kroneys, and the stomach sympa? thize with tbe liv, r. and become disordered also. Finally, the instinct of our organism, as li m an at? tempt* to expel tb?? noxious infusion, concentrates the ?hole blood of the body in tbe internal excreto? ries to force them to cast it out. The blood leaves the surface, and rushes lo the central organs with conrrestlve violence. This is the Chill But in this effort it tails, 'ihcn the Fever follows, in which the ""blood leave? the central organs and rushes to the surface, as it in another effort to expel the irritating poison through that other great excretory-the skin. In this also lt fails, and the system abandons Ute attempt exhausted, and wjits tor ti e recovery of btrcngth to repeat the hopeless effort another day. These are' Ihe fits of paroxysms ot Fever auu Ague. Such constitutional disorder will ot course under mine the health if it ta not removed. We have laoorcd to nnd, and have found an anti? dote, .Mt ICS AGL'K CURE. tVblch neutralizes this malarious poison in the J blood, and stimulates tbe liver to expel it from the ^ body. AM it should. >o it docs cure this afflicting I disorder with perlect certainty. And it does more, or rather does what is of more service to those sub? ject to this infection. If taken in season lt expels it from the svstem.as it is absoroed. and tuns keeps those who use it tree I rom its attacks; keeps the sys? tem in health although expo-ed to the disease. Con? sequently it not only CUM S, but protects from, Uie grent variety of aflcctiois which are induced by this malignant Influence, such as Remittent Fever, Chill Fever. Dumb, or Masked A gue, Periodical Headache, or bilious Headache. Bilious Fever?, t-eunicia, Rheumatism Gout. Blindness, Toothache, raracbe, Catarrh. Asthma, Palpitations Painful Affections of the ppleen, Hysterics, Colic, Paralysis, and ??intu? Affect ons ' f the Stomach and Dowels, all of which, when arising frtm this cause, will be found to as? sume, more or lese, the intermittent type. This "AGUE CUBE." removes the cause of these derange? ments and cures the disease. 1 his it accomplishes by srimulatirg the excreto? ries to expel the virus from the system; and those organs by denr?es become habited lo do this, their efflce. of their own accord. Hence arises what w* term acclimatation. Time may accomplish the same end, but ?lten Me is not long enough, or is sacrificed in the attempt, while this ? Ague Cure" does it at once, and with safety. We have great reason to be? lieve ibis is a surer as well as safer remedy for the whole class of diseases which are canst d by the mi- -, asmatic iniectinu. tban any ether which has been discovered; and it has eull another imp?t taut ad- J vantage to the public, which is, that it is cheap as fj well as good. .
