McFALL & POOL: I The necessity for life insurance was never so great as at present. The poverty of our people is a strong argument to induce them 5 to husband their resources to make provision for the necessities of their wives and chil- I dren, and by no means can one so effectually t make the provision as by a policy of life insurance in a strong and reliable and well I tasted company. Such a company we have d in the Piedmont and Arlington. It has con -ducted its business in this State for nine a years, and secured a larger business than any a other company in the South. It meets its claims promptly; it invests its assets in soand b securities; and altogether conducts its busi- i, ness upon plans ascertained by long expe rience to be sound and equitable. .

He kept h a there a month, when he and the si md one morning' took a deer hunt, ich was kept up until 10 o'clock of b t day. At this time .the deer was t< nd and killed, but, the dog was lost. fi .Gist supposed the animal had either c, n swallowed by an alligator in some ti of the numerous bayous which ti >und in that region, had been stung h leath by gallinippers, or had run out d his hide and was ashamed to present h 1self in that naked condition.

COURT.-The Court of General Ses sions convened on Monday, Judge Nor throp presiding, and Solicitor Fleming in attendance. His Honor's charge to the Grand Jury was clear and compre hensive, and indicative of his purpose to push - the work of the session in a business like manner, and we take occa sion to compliment him on the favora ble impression already created. True bills have been handed in in the case of the State vs. George Washington for burglary, and in the case of the State vs. Jacob H. Boozer for obstructing the public road. This latter case was the first called and is now before the Court, and is one which excites a good deal of interest. The State is represented by Solicitor Fleming and Maj. J. M. Bax ter, the defence by Col. Y. J. Pope and Geo. S. Mower, Esq. The Pomaria murder and arson case will probably come up on next Tuesday. From what we can see and from information gath ered, our new Judge means business, and that he will not suffer valuable time to be lost. OFFIcE Or COXfTROLLXR-GENERAL, Columbia, S.

He is a man of advanced ideas and a great de sire to learn, so that by his gathered knowledge he may benefit the people of his vast empire. On his return from Utah he is expected to traverse the Southern States. We learn from the Chronicle & Sentinel that an invitation will be sent him to inspect the Augusta Canal, with all its locks and sluices and ingenious machinery. We are of opin ion that Newberry can boast of evi dences of modern improvement which no other place in the United States can offer, and we propose to send Dom Pedro an invitation to pass a pleasant week' in looking at those admirable improve ments of which our city can boast. First, we would mention our College building which sits like a queen on her raised throne. For comfort and safety it cannot be equalled, and it deserves its reputation of being the best ventilated college in the Southern States; by what ingenious contrivances the air gains ad- t mission Dom Pedro and his engineers C must see for themselves; we cannot de scribe them. Next we have the model c Depot platform of the world. The ele- d gance of its mosaic flooring is unsur- I passed; the artistic skill displayed in a the manufacture of the baluster, which protects the multitude from falling into c :he yawning chasm in the rear, is wor ;hy of the handiwork of Benvenuto Dellini; it is the pride of the city; the irrangement of trap-doors by which a >erson at any part of the platform may >e thrown under the crushing car wheels by the touch of a spring in the C elegraph office, might prove of great ise to the Emperor to get rid of any of ii- unpleasant state officers; he would imply send a message to the telegraph ffice to touch spring No. 3 for some incomfortable Brazillian Bristow. Next ve have the great Sugar Mill-mostly an by lawyers-who manipulate the rocess of granulation with wonderful h kill. The amount of sugar from d orghum juice realized by this unique rocess is unequalled in the world. The b ugar is especially adapted to Rio coffee, p nd the molasses candy made from its tj eacle will quiet any Brazillian brat in ass than two minutes. Then we have hat enormous cotton factory in Prospect >wnship, covering some five hundred cres, with a capacity of three million pindles, which manufacture long clothh hat cannot be surpassed for summer rear at the Amazon. One of the great st inducements, however, for Dom 'edro's coming would be the Newberry eef. It is so soft and juicy that we are sr nly afraid that the Emperor might mis- si ike it for some kind of brown butter. a ome villamn has said that from what's ~ft at the table the best India rubber b4 rershoes are made; but that's a vile ander. Then there is that beautifully p id out park, superior to the Prater of p ienna, commonly called Johnstone's d4 oods, designed by that colebrated -ench landscape gardener, Monsieur g indabout, who left his unfinished plans the hands of the Town Council, who o doubt would take great pleasure it enough.

Those who will respond to my inquiries will please answer the following questions: What 9ystem was adopted in these charities ? At what date were the "Homes" organized in your city, town, village or vicinity? How many ladies (and their names) were engaged in the work? How many soldiers did you receive and feed per day, per week or per month ? How many during the existence of the "Homes" did you accommodate ? If clothing, shoes, hats, &c., were dispensed, how many pieces, either during a given time or the whole time? If money was expe.nded, how much in a given time or the whole time ? If you cannot give exact statements, be so good as to give me some idea. Very respectfully, your obedient servant, E. B. TURNIPSEED. COLUMBIA, S. C., April 24, 1876.
