The Original Stork Life Insurance Co. of the United States. OFFICERS: WILLIAM WALKER, President. HENRY J. FURBER, vice-President JOHN H. BEWLEY, Secretary. GEORGE L. MONTAGUE, Actuary. E. W. LAMBERT, M. D., Med. Ex. This Company Oilers the Following Important Advantages to those About ?Sffee?fEg Mi>Hra?iee cn their lires: 1st. Insurance ai Stock Units* "bcir-^' iroui 20 to 30 Per Cent, less than the Rates .charged by Mutual Companies. 2d. Each Policy-holder is regarded as a Stockholder to the extent of one Annual Premium on his Policy, and will share in the Profits o? the Company to the same extent as a Stock holder-owning an equal amom.t of the Capital Stock. 3d. Every Policy issued by the Company is non-forfeitable, and contains a Clause stating its exact Surrender Value. BEFORE INSURING YOUR LIFE OR ACCEPTING THE AGENCY OF ANY COMPANY READ TE1JE FOLLOWING* A lengthened experience has demonstrated that the rates of Premium ordinarily charged by Life Insurance Companies are from twenty-five to thirty per cent, in excess of what are necessary for a safe and legitimate conduct- of the business. In other words, carefully anil prudently-managed Companies? charging ^Mutual" rates have been able to return to their policyholders from 25 to 30 per cent, ol the amount charged for premiums. When Life Insurance Companies were first organized, the reliability of the data upon which the premiums were constructed had not undergone the test of experience. 11 was thought, therefore,;. nore than common prudence to adopt a scale of premiums which would, in any event, meet all the presumed and unforeseen contingencies of the business. As long as the matter was involved in some doubt, it was better to fix thc rate too high than to incur the risk of making it too low ; because, in the former case, the error could be easily remedied, at least in part, by returning to the policyholders, at certain intervals, such portion of the premium charged as was found' unnecessary for. the purposes of the business and the complote security of thc Company. Experience, however, having satisfactorily demonstrated that these-Tates are excess sive, what- possible excuse can there be fWr maintaining them ? Availing themselves of this experience, thc Directors and Managers of the Universal Life Insurance Company, at its organization, adopted a scale of premiums in accor dance therewith, and which has proved to*bc fair and adequate, and all that was necessary to meet the requirements of the business! These premiums are about twenty five per cent.-lower than tb ose* charged by -Mutual Companies. It also appeared, inasr .ucii as the rate.? so established were as near as could possibly be determined fair rates, and not in excess of what Insurance has previously cost the Policyholders in Mutual Companies, that any profits arising from prudent manage ment justly and properly belonged to the stockholders of the Company, for the risk incurred Cy them in truj^eri?kitig the Business. Experience ha* shown that tin ie a:<- sounvs ol' profit in the; practice o? the business which theory will mi 'admit ot h. ..uuriuVivd as clements in (Le calculation of the premiums.

Profits from these sources, in a Company possessed of a capital of ?200,001), and do ing a fair amount of business, would give to tho stockholders dividends'largely iii o.\ cess of what were counted on by thc Directors of the Universal at the time of its OTganizat?on: They have,; theretor&j oatWiunoa to ' divide ar??orjg fl:?.- policyholdiTs bl Hie Company a large part of the profits accruing from tho sources name.!, ail of which have heretofore been divided among thc stockholders. The plan adopted for such division is as follows : Every person who may hereafter insure with lie Universal w Al, for the purposes of division, be treated as a stockhol der to the extent of one Annual Premium upon his Policy ; and will share in Ute profils of the Company toprecise/y 'he soin?' extent as a Stockholder oxvimj an equal amount of thc cap ital slock. By this system of Insurance; original with the Uu'iccrsal, the policyholder secures the following important advantages : FIP.ST. Insurance ai Ike regular, '' Slock'' rates, requiring a primary outlay of about twenty to thirty per cad. tess-than thal charged by Mutual Companies, and which is equivalent to 3 yearly " dividend'' paid in advance of that amount on mu lui rates. This low cost of insurance is worthy bf attention! Since its organization this Company has received in premiums from its policyholders the sum of $1,517,000. To eli'ect the same amount of insurance in a Mutual Company would have c-'st them an initial outlay o? v2,?t'0.0UU. Dy allowing its policyholders to retain in their own pos session this excess bfl^SoSjOOOl the Univ---ai has virtually paid them a "dividend ' ol HS-3,000, and paid it, too, in advance, instead of at thc end of one or more years, lt is 'inpossible i-o-find-anyexample-of a Mutual Company furnishing insurance at so low a cost by returning lo its policyholders an equal amount upon similar receipt. SECOND. Participa'ion in the legitimate profits of (he Company, upon a pian which secures to the ])olicyholders the same treatment which Dirxtors and titockhohh rs a ward | to themselves. This system of'participation, id connection with tho low " stock" rates oi premium, must necessarily secure to the policyholders even* possible advantage to be derived from prudent and careful managt mein. The low rates of premium compclieconouiy, and, independent of participation, guarantee to the policyholder his insurance at a rate which is nb) in excess of the cost in well'managed mutual companies ; while* by-the proposed plaii of .participation in what may be considered the legitimateprofits of the business, the cost will be still further diminished. Thus by the combined advai tagt s a rising from low stock rate and participation in thopront* it is confidently believed thai:.:;- UNIVERSAL LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY oilers insurance ul its :. wes! practicable cost. jy^jg" Those of the existing Policyholders who desire to participate in the Profits under the new Plan c;:n do so ! y making application to thc Head Office, or to any of | the Agents of the Company.

'Twas milking time, and tho cows came up From the meadows swcot with clover, And stood in the la?e, while pretty Jane. Had'a quiet chat with the drover Such a quiet chat that it scarcely seemed That a single worn was spoken ; While a magie spell with thc night dews fell, ' . And the rythm' of song was unbroken Thc cattle stood ut fco lover's sido, Without any show ol' vexation, As though impressed that a nvc bar rest Was-a paff of their rest oration. And as Jane listened to thc notes that came Right under the $ars and over, Her heart-took wing, the silty thing, And nestled up close to the drover. Shc.heard him sayihis home was poor, -That .he'd nothing but love to give her; And she smiled content, as though .Love had spent . I Every arrow he Bad in his quiver ; She smiled content, when the evening air .7 : With voiccfrof birds arc ringing, And her lips confered that a lowly nest ! Should never prevent her singing. So over.the bars the lovers lean, In the joy of their sweet communion; And their looks; declare that poverty ne'er Shall be a bar to their union ; 0, sweetestmusic, go thread your rhymes Now under the haas and. over ! Where p""Ctty Jane,"in the fragrant lane, Bewitched the heart of the drover. The Question of thc Over Issue of Bonds. As our readers may presume, [says tho Colombia Phoenix] we have not the hon or of Governor Scoffs confidence Nor does the Phccnix iutervicw people whose statements, airer; ?hoy are made, may just as well bo defined false as true. As his Excellency is now arraigned -before thc bar of the public, and has boen pla ced, by tho New .York World in thc criminal's dock, it is proper that his da fence be heard. The correspondent of | tho Charleston Courier has interviewed Gov. Scott. About the only practical piece of information he gives, is that ar rangements have b?eu made to take the financial agency.of thc State from the present agent and "place it in thc handsof the Union Trust'; Company, of New York. That Is, GOT. Scott ct Co. propose to lock the stabio doors fter the horses of tho State have ?cen stolen; and he, porhaps, not theT^?st notorious in thc band of the Radical olficials who have grown fat and waxed saucy upon the bleeding and mutilated body of pros trate Carolina. Why, wc a.sk his Excel lency, did you mako Kimpton your li nancial agent in-New York, and place millions of State sc.uriii-s in his un known hands, without exacting even a bond from him, such as an assistant cashier gives in ono of our city banks? Yon and your advisers, we say to his Excellency, are responsible in law and morals for all that the State of South Carolina may lose from thc great conspi racy- financial-whereby unknown mil lions may perhaps have been added to thc public debt o?jSoulh Carolina. Is it .enc that ?ib'rpu/>rrvr~.\-<-TiITh iiiJB fcTflte may now bo over ?20,000,000? If so, can our poor and plundered people pay $1,500,000 per annum interest on that debi, and, besides that sum, the current expenses of thc Government? Whither are wc uri Ming? Whither sails thc ship Ol* State? .'.ml what says tho Attorney General of the State';' Have you no du ties in this cris:? to discharge? rf thc State luis been plundered-if tho treasu ry has been invaded-as we know is the case-is it not the duty of the Attorney General to proceed against the plunder ers? Where frauds were alleged in New .York, Gov. Hoffman put his At torney-General to-work. If Scott is no Hoffman, is it also the eas-' that Cham berlain is no Champlain? Wc said that this man Kimpton would cost thc Slate at least ?1,000,000. Is it that our estimate was very mode rate? It looks very much like it. Alas for South Carolina,- when swindlers and robbers prey upon her, and then ide themselves under thc United States flag! Scott oe Co. plunder, our people, and then call upon Grant, and he puts them under military rule ! -- .??>? - A Horrible Crime. From the Louisville Ledger. Wc aro called upon to record another of those horrible crimes that have of laic become so frequent, and which shock by their atrocity ali who hear them. On Tuesday Highton the Turnpike between New Albany and the Charlestown road, a negro attempted to violate the daugh ter of Mr. Amos Stacey a highly respec ted citizen of Clark county, Indiana The screams of the terrified girl, and her struggles to free herself from the black fiend who had seized her, were heard by the family of Mr. Stacey, whose resi dence was near by, and the father started to the rescue of his child. But he had proceeded but a short distance when he fell dead from heart disease, brought on by the startling danger and excitement produced upon him by it The would-be ravisher, in thc excite ment that followed, succeeding in mak ing his escape, and thc girl was saved. Thc neighborhood was alarmed, and search made in all directions for thc black liend, but he succeeded in evading pursuit, and got safely away. Tho en tire neighborhood in which Mr. Stacey resided is in an intense stale of excite ment, and there ?snot the slightest doubt, if thc negro is arrested, that ho will at once be sining up to the nearest, tree, without judge or jury. Mr. Staeoy was a most excellent citizen, and his death under such terrible circumstances has raised the passions of the people in that vicinity to the highest pitch, and ?twill not bo safe for any negro who rnny be found loafing around that vicinity for sometime to cc mc.

LINCOLN'S EMANCIPATION PROCLA MATION.-A Washington letter-writer thus refers to tho burning of tho eman cipation of Lincoln : It is announced that thc original copy of Lincoln's proclamation, by which the people of the South wore robbed of four hundred millions of dollars worth ol property, was consumed in the Chicago lire. It is further stated that this pre cious document cost the people of Chica go twenty-five thousand dollars. Now can any one tell how tho people of Chi cago got possession of an original docu ment, which belongs to the archives of the Government, and who got the twen tv-five thousand dollars ? ?&r The Macon (Ga.) Telegraph, under the heading of " Grand Collapse of South Carolina Carpet-Baggism in Wall street,'' says: " It will be seen hythe morning dispatches that the carpet-bag plunder ers of South Carolinaare in New York endeavoring to cover up their tracks and secure their plunder. According to thc World, who has looked into tho matter, over twenty millions of State bonds have boen printed and fraudulently issued fir tho negotiation of which thc Finan cial Agent holds claims against tho State to the amount of $4,000,000. Scott issues a manifesto claiming that niue millions of these bonds have never been signed or issued ; but who cn believe a word of what he says? We fear the old State is gone up at last-a victim alike to Radical fraud and tyranny. Tho best wo can hope for is, that thc money loss will fall on the Radicals who back such whole sale swindling with Government bayo nets. Sure!j" thc deviot' fraud and vil lainy has broke loose, and isragingopen mouthed all over tho country," J?A?- A gentleman of this city some lime ago had been dealing in chinquapins and was about to get overstocked. He concluded to inform those he was buying from that he could not take any more from them, and accordingly sat down to indite thom a noto to that elfe ct. He got along very well until he came to the word '. chinquapin" and hero ho was stumpped. He made two or three efforts but failed every time. At last a bright idea struck him, and he wroto his note thus : " Please don't send me any more of theso tl-d things"-enclosing two chinquapins. Wo presume the note was understood. THE So CALLED KU-KLUX.-The Prov idence (R. I.) Herald says: Thc Ku-Klux business in South Caro lina has had everything to make it pros perous. Thc law is in the hands of shirtless rascals who have passed from their proper place, the gutter, to tho bench by the aid ol' negro votes ; "loyal" vil lainy is permitted to run riot unchecked, and if there is aught to be wondered at it is that the number of outrages is not ten fold greater than it is. Wo go agalpst the violences attributed to tp.e KuKlux as strongly ns thc Journal of any of thc Rndipfd papers, but where M loyalty" shields every crimo and "disloyalty" amounts merely to an opposition to Re publican misrule we, do not blame UK people for availing themselves of thc law within their reach-thc law of sch defence. If tho Government is really sincere in its professed wishes to re es Uiblish a permanent prosperity and pea? in the South why does it not depose th? thieving carpet naggers who exercise of ficial authority in the disaffected dis tricts? Nine-tenths of them as richlj deserve hanging aa common highway men.
