THE MATERIAL PROGRESS OF THE SOUTH CHEHBTNQ SIGNS.-Perhaps the best evi? dence of tho sure and rapid material pro? gress of the South may be found in the fact, that the price of the bonds of the different Southern States is steadily rising in Wall street. The directors of onr Now York savings banks, who are proverbially conser? vative, cautious and sagacious, bavo lately bought largely these State bonds. Tho Southern p* opie themselves aro also adding considerably to their investments in these bonds. Other cheering signs of the onergy with which the recuperative powers of tho South are awakening, may bo found in the great cotton crop, estimated at ?200,000,000; in the plentiful rico and sugar crops; in tho abundant production of everything con? sumed by the Southern peoplo at home; in the report that in many parts of the South labor has become even oheaper than it used to be in the days of slavery; and, lastly, in many indications that tho political pacifica? tion which must infallibly follow the inau? guration of General Grant, will open at the South an era of good feeling and of unpre? cedented prosperity. [New York Herald, 31st. -o DEAD LETTERS.-The Postmaster General, in his recent report, states that the whole | number of dead letters of all classes re? ceived by the United States Post Office, during the year ending June 30, 186S, was 4.162,144.

AN important consideration, which Company pays tho best, and where can tho cheapest and best Insurance bo obtainod. Wo say, in tho CONNECTICUT MUTUAL. Because-The largest Mutual Life Company--55,000 members-its im? menso security, its surplus over all liabilities over $0,000,000; its large and ever increasing annual dividends, on some policies oxeceding 70 per cent.; the largest annual dividend from the earnings of a single year ever made by any Company in tho world; its easy modo of receiving premiums- only HALF CASH required-you can secure a larger amount of Insurance for the money paid, than in any other Company-in short, it pays tho best in tho Connecticut Mutual.
