THE BIGHT OP WAY.-A notice was served on the South Carolina Bail road Company, through its agent at Aiken, a wee? or two ago, that a jury would be impannelled, under "tho Act to declare the manner in which the lands, or the right of way over j the lands, of persons or corporations may be taken," for the purpose of ascertaining what compensation should be given the company for the right of way required at Graniteville by the Conimbia and Augusta Bail road Company. On behalf of tho South Carolina Bailrood Company, a motion was make before Judge Platt to vacate the order for impannelling the jury, for the reason that thirty days' notice that the said right of way was required had not been given, as is provided for by the Act referred to. Upon this fact being established, Judge Platt ordered tba order to be vacated, as prayed. The question of the right of rail - roads and other corporations to take ] the lands of corporations or indivi? duals, and the whole subject of the constitutionality of the Aot of the Le? gislature upon this subject, will proba? bly come up in the injunction case to be argued before Jndge Willard to? day, to which the South Carotina Bailroad is a party.-Cliarleston Neics. The expenses incurred by the National Government since July 1 for the Freedmen's Bureau and re? construction purposes have been found, upon recent examination, to exceed $20,000,000. As this is only one of the minor channels of extrava? gant expenditure, the question natu? rally arises, bow long can Uncle Samuel stand it? It would appear as though something was equally as dc- { Bumble as peace, and that is economy. - ? - A lad at Holly Springs, Miss., was bitten in the foot by a moccasin snake, when inflammation set in and he came near dying, but was saved by the application of a "mad stone" to his foot, whioh extracted the poison.

Oct 24 RESISTIN^PROV?r^NC?T "l" IFE INSURANCE enables a man to XJ put himself in harmony with Di? vine Providence. Providence has brought tho institution into being lo bless the raco. He who rofuscH it, distrusts and despisea Providence and invites its ven geanco upon himself and his household. Wo know of no fallacy so transparent, no delusion more grouudless, than that which makes the practice of Lifo Insurance appear as an attempt to controvert tho Divine will." Thousands of widows and orphans live to attest tho divino beneficence of LIFE INSURANCE. Without its protecting ;cg:G, many of them would, to-d?y, bo beg? gars upon the streets, or occupants of poor-houBC8 and penitentiaries. No mau can foretoll what will be his circumstances at tho time of bia death. Tho rich man of to-day dicB tho pauper of to-morrow, and tho family, delicately reared, bocomo tho unprepared victims of diro Want, with her train of countless evils. Such a result i* impossible, with a policy of I jfo InBurancr*. It, indeed, offers the only absolutely safe invoatment which can be made for the benefit of ono's family and of his own old age. Ali other investments may result in loss or ruin. If all would insure, who can calc?lalo tho immonse suftoring and crime which tho world would he spared! /KTNA UKK INSURANCE COMPA?
