latorinl, and it fills our 3hip3 with their
trgoes. Social industry depends upoo
; iud i vid aal lifo depends npon iff. There
i no man in tho country who is so
ealthy nu tobo independent of the
access of this great intorest, nor any so
oor as not:to .bo. affected ?by its pros
erity or.its decline. This country has
oculiav . fncilitied for ! advantageously
roaecuting this groat department of
uman labor. Tho variety of ita climate,
?ie abundance and cheapness of its fer ti lo
oil, aro Bitch aa no other natiou on tho
urface of the globe can booBt. It is no
redit to oar vaunted enterprise that we
iave never yet ' made i adequato use of
bese signal advantages-that the time
as never yet boen when the proportion
1 our farmers to the whole population
ms os large as it should have been
rhen the number of those engaged in
rofCBsions and trades Were not, at the
ery least, twice as great as tho actual
eoeasitie* of society required. There is
oason to apprehend that 'this dispro
lortion will increase. This restless,
dventurouB spirit is ever tending to take
nore complete possession of our people.
Everybody is getting more infected with
he'eagerness to gat rich in haste. There
s a growing impatience of the good old
nan of earning a competence by steady,
>eraevering labor and frugal living. The
ronng men of the day have tired of the
eolation and monotony ol agricultural
lie, and pant for something more stirring
md exciting? and something that seems
o promise quicker and more splendid
eturns. They have seized upon the first
>pportuuity to launch away into the tide
)f trade and speculation. And that tide
>nce embarked npon, it ia very seldom
;hat they find their way back to the
plowed fields. A large proportion of
them have not succeeded in their new
pursuits; tens of thousands of them have
miserably failed; and become bankrupts
ind drones; und yet they have, from the
pure force of acquired habit, clung to
town-life with all the greater tenaoity.
'.*It cannot be too well understood by
these young malcontents in tho conntry
that failure there almost infallibly fore?
tokens failure here. The same qualities
and habits which' stand in their way in
the country will cause them to stumble
in the city. It is everywhere the same
all over the world; to AU any situation
successfully, one most fill it as belonging
to it.. The man who feels above his busi?
ness, let that business be what it may, is
actually below atty' business, He is
without anything to -hold him' np any?
where, and is bound to sink anyhow.
The great work of lifo, whether in city
or country, oafinot be maintained by any
such weaklings. Least of all is this
tearing, grinding, crushing mart the
plane for them. > We already have an
over-produotron otfaoap?bies and drones.
There is no room here for the drift of
rural weakness und cowardice. Let the
farmers' sons heed the counsels of their
?[overnors and stay at home-holding
sst to the oldest, happiest, most inde?
pendent and most honorable of human
occupations."

* A number of Jewish Babbie, from tho
principal cities of tho Union, are in con?
ference in Philadelphia, on tho subject
of reform in tho Jewish Church. They
adopted r?solutions abolishing the use of
prayers in Iba Hebrew tongue, as unin?
telligible to the masses; disclaiming tho
doctrino of bodily resurrection or the
removal of the Jewish state by a segre?
gation from all other nations, and declar?
ing the Aaronic priesthood, and the MO?

merely preparatory steps to Buuel's na?
tional priesthood, and thereforo, things
of the past, to be mentioned in prayer

not to be practiced.

A current caricature in Now York is
described as follows: lu un iron cago
tho buHr and bears aro engaged in a
deadly struggle, while Jim Fisk, dressed
in his Admiral uniform, tho epaulettes
represented by the steamers Bristol and
Providence,-the sailor's knot held by a
pin shaped ?nd marked "Opera House,"
and an Erie' engine snorting from his
pocket, goads tho poor beasts with a
sharp-poi nt od stick, labelled "1G0 fora
million." In the distance is seen tho
White House, and down a hill, on tho
keen jump, comes General Grant, stag?
gering under the weight of a huge bag
marked $5,000,000 gold coin.
A KENTUCKY JOKE.-The Paris Kentuc?
kian is responsible for this anecdote:
"Gen. J. C. Bxeokinridge and Humphrey
Marshall had a pleasant meeting here
lost week. In joking one another, Gen.
B. told the following, which very humo?
rously hits off Gen. Marshall's immense
size: When Gen. M. beard that Gen. Pe
gram intended entering Kentucky with
his command, be felt as if his own pre?
serves were being poached upon, and
sent word to Pegram that he mast not
come into the State. Pegram replied
that be was preparing, and intended to
enter Kentucky at once. Marshall de?
clared that if he did, he would have to
pass over his (Marshall's) dead body.
Whereupon, Pegram responded, that
that would be too muoh to expect of his
artillery, but if he found tho obstado in
his way, he would immediately tunnel
through!"
A German photographer has invented
a method of making seals and stamps
with the portraits of his customers. A
thin layer of gelatine, sensitized with
bi-ehromatie'of potash, is exposed to the
action of light under a photograph posi?
tive, by which the parts acted on are
rendered insoluble in water, and the parts
not acted on by the light swell up, and
wo obtain a picture in relief of which a
plaster cast can be taken. A galvanic
plastic copy hoing taken of the cast, wo
have a metallic faa simile of tho photo?
graph, which can-be employed as a seal.
This process suggests a method of ob?
taining perfect likenesses of persons in
metallic checks for the use of the printer,
and also ab admirable way of illustrating
scientific books.
A New. York, letter of Tuesday says:
"The farther decline in gold is begin?
ning to alarm the merchants, especially
thoso of them who are burdened with
large stocks of foreign . merchandise,
which have been purchased when the
premium was from five to teu per cent,
above the present quotations. Under a
vague conviction, howover, that there
may be a reaction before long, but few
of them have had the courage to mark
down their goods to correspond. Should
tho premium find a lower deep than it
has touched today, many of them will
be const rai nod 'to let go,' and make the
heft of tho situation."
A radical paper published a statement
that the Rev. Samuel Johnson, of Co?
lumbia, "was pr??chiuifr on the farm of
Dr. G. C. Wright, near Allen's Ford, in
Laurens County, when three white men
rode up and fired from tweaty-five to
thirty shots among the congregation.
The namo of ono of tho assailants is
Philip Coon, who resides in that vi?
cinity." Tho Laurens ville Herald says
(1) thero is no. such place as Allen's Ford
in Laurens CO?nty, (2) there is no such
man os Dr. G. C. Wright ia the County;
(3) thero is no man named Coou in the
County; (4) the Kev. Samad Johnson
has not yet been fonnd. This may be
termed a radical lie, or lyiug by whole?
sale.
A SAD FIINEKAT, ADDRESS.-Hero is a
funeral speech which a Paris paper as?
sures us was actually pronounced at
Montmartre thc other day by a father nt
the grave of his sou: "Gentlemen," said
the father, ia a voice fall of emotion,
"tho body before mo was that of my son.
Ho was a young man in the prime of life,
with a sound constitution, which ought
to have iueured him 100 years. But
misconduct, drunkenness and doh,tu chery
of tho most disgraceful kind, brought
him, in tho flower of age, to tho ditch
which you seo before yon. Let this be
au example to yon and to your ohildreo.
Let us go hence."
Some editors make a great fuss about
the amont of money Brigham Young
gets for bis laborious duties. If we had
ninety-seven wives, and more spoke for,
we should require as mach money as he
does to keep them looking decent at the
present prices. One woman makes a
man's pocket-book sick.

The consolidation of the two most popular Southern Companies ia full of advantages to the
j policy-holders of both Companies. Its expenditures will bo less, and with less relative risk.
The future dividends will bo moro certain, and probably greater in amount, and a batter re
I served fund created. .
NO RIGHT of old policy-holders will be affected; they will continue to pay the same rate as
j before; to hold tho same policios as before: to have the eamo rights, benefits' and privileges as
I beforo, and have equal present security with greater future benefit than before. All reaewals
I of old policies will be in name ol new Company, under special authority from the respectivo
I Directors of tho old Companies. ,
A NEW CHARTER was obtained with tho rights of policy-holders guaranteed, and wo call
special attention to tho following desirable features in said charter: ,
".SEC. 2. The business of the Company shall be to mako insurance on the lives of individuals
.in all tho branches of Life 'Insurance; to grant, purchase or dispose of annuities or re-insure
risks." . i
>*tit.c.. 4. The business of the Company SHALL be conducted on tho plan of DISTRIBUT?
ING TO THE POLICY-HOLDERS THE PROFITS of tho business, as hereinafter provided,
unless by thc consont of the assured tho policy selected is non-participating.*' '
'SEC. 15. This Company may issuo policies on the lives of husbands and parents, or others,
for thu benefit of wives and families, or other beneficiaries interested io their lives-as ances?
tors, descendants, creditors or dependents, and the samo shall not bo Hablo far the debts ol
contracts of tho assured, except as provided in tho policies iusned."
' IJKC. IC. Thc Company may issue policies payable IN GOLD : Prodded, premiums are paid
I in the same.*
"Sec. 16. Tho permanent investment of funds shall bo in mortgages or liens on UNENCUM?
BERED REAL ESTATE WORTH DOUBLE THE AMOUNT LOANED."
We would also call attention to the rights secured in polity as part of thc contract.
Rights of party to non-forfeiture in ah its policies.
Rights of party to re-instateinent-paid np policy, and Gurrender value whoro "intervention
of armies'' or any other causo cnts the insured oft from home ofllco. This feature, omitted in
policies of Northern Companies, oost tho Southern people very heavily in thu late war, and
should make them seek the only Company that provides against auch contingency in future.
Home Companies now have in their pol ides, that parties who "take up arma against" certain
named States, "or tho United States," render their policy null and void This fs making cer?
tain what was beforo uncertain, and ia ton great a minding politics, war and lifo insurance.
"The PIEDMONT AND AULINGTON" bas ?.'model charier and nwdtlpolia,, plainly elating
rights of parties and guarding those rig/its against socriiico.
lt given dividends st tho end of tirst year, when all cash is paid, and of second year, when
part loan is taken. Tho all cash plan is unreservedly recommended as in overy wny most satis?
factory.
Wo now confidently appeal to every ono interested in Southern prosperity to look to their
own interests, by sustaining their own institutions, und thereby establishing 'hst ?o.'?-cuu?l
denee without which then: can bo no pormament prosperity, near in mind that already over
?10 060,000 are annually sent North for Life Insurance, taking bo mucli from oiir strength, and
thereby giving additional power to our competitors.
We offer a solid, reliable Life Insurance Company, thoroughly Southern, in the hands'of men
of tbe highest integrity, with abundant asset e. recent i ?.-ks, tho niofct secure of all investments,
pledged to tetain within the State of South Carolina all funds accruing therein, and, indeed, pre?

rior merits of tho "PIEDMONT AND ARLINGTON LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY" ti? insiiro
