The Proprietor of the paper has been seriously
sick for a week past, with pneumonia; but we are
gratified to state that there are cheering tokens of
improvement in the case. This, of course, has pre
vented his personal attention to business ; and if any
of his correspondents find matters which require
that attention delayed, they will, we are sure, excuse
what is the result of painful affliction and of absolute
necessity.

be eminently proper for women to sit upon
grand juries, which will give them the best
possible opportunities to aid in suppressing
the dens of infamy which curse the country.”

The State Agricultural Society—Let
ter from Mr. True, &c. —Capt. B. H. True,
of Morgan, one of the Executive Committee,
writes to the Constitution of this city, as fol
fows :
“ All the machines and implements left over

Railroad, were transported to Atlanta free,
and will be stored at the old market house,
where the office of the Searetarv is now lo
cated, to await the orders of the owners. The
freight on these articles has not been paid,
and must be settled before the goods will be
delivered. The Society is abundantly able to
settle all outstanding claims, and will do so
as soon as these freights and other property
now in the hands of the Society is disposed of.
The medals and diplomas have not been re
ceived by the Secretary as yet, but are ex
pected soon. It is proposed to have in At

from every county society in the S’ate, for
the discussion of agricultural questions. S-c
--retary Lewis informs me two of the railroads
have agreed to pass three delegates from each
county society in the State, both ways free,
and when all have agreed to the proposition,
a call for the convention will be made. Ire
spectfully suggest that a programme be ini
mediately made; speakers and essayists be
appointed to take part in the exercises, and
that each paper read become .the property of
the Society, and, if worthy, be published in
the annual proceedings of the Society.

MRS. ELIZA S. STEVENS.-Died, Feb. 20, IS7O, at
the residence of her soil, O. W. Stevens, Quitman, Ga.,
Mrs. El za S. Stevens, in the 80th year of her age.
The deceased was one of those rare instances of the
dedication of a whole life to the service of her Heaven
ly Master, where he radiance reflected from the image
of her Saviour seemed to grow brighter and brighter
with each successive year. She seemed ever to behold
the finger ot God in every providence, to receive with
gratitude every manifestation of Divine favor, and to
bow with meek submission to every afflictive dispensa
tion. She lived in intimate and inseparable commun
ion with the Father of her spirit, and breathed the at
mosphere of pure, vital godliness. Her religion was
not of that austere character which confined its outward
manifestations to monastic rites and ceremonies, ignor
ing the rational enjoyment of the blessings of life,
but her society diffused a warm and cheering glow
of love and sympathy into the hearts of all who
enjoyed its hallowed influence. For many years
a member of the Baptist church, and though in
flexible und sincere in the maintainunce of its dis
tinctive tenets, yet, in the exercise of n broad Chris
tian charity, she embraced within the arms of her be
nevolence all wbo loved the Lord Jesus Christ. Blest
by nature with a remarkable constitution and an un
wonted share of health, she enjoyed the almost unim
paired use of her mental and physical faculties up so
the time of her final illness. Childhood and youth al
ways found in her a sympathizing friend and wisecoun
se'.lor, and mature age a genial companion. In all the
varied relations of life she discharged its duties with
Christian fidelity, and in such a manner as to secure
the admiration and love of all wbo were the recipients
of her beneficence and sympathy. A faithful und devo
ted mother, she lived to see all of her children pursu
ing the “ ways ol wisdom,” and all but one professed
followers of Christ. For this distinguishing exhibition
of unmerited goodness, she of.en expressed the deepest
sense of gratitude to her Heavenly Father. Her whole
• life was a beautiful illustration of that sublime Chris
tian faith which indellibly impressed upon the hearts of
her children the truth that religion was not a mere
vagary of the facy, bat a living, active principle, based
upon tbe sure foundation of eternal love. She bas gone
to enjoy the reward of the just, but the recollection of
her deep maternal love, rare social excellences and pre
eminent Christian attainments, will ever be cherished
as a bright example for filial love and emulation.

It is with so much reluctance that I appeal to my

so much longer than I should. But we must have
Money. The past salaries have not been paid, and
on the Ist of April another quarterly payment is due.
The Professors cannot live without these payments.
I have made private appeals by letter, and a few have
responded, but not one-fifth of those to whom I wrote
for instalments already due. In addition to other de
mands upon him, Dr. Broadus is having a valuable
book stereotyped, and the money must he paid for it.
If the salaries were paid, mutual help might be given.
I beg brethren not to wait to pay money tTMhe Con
vention at Louisville, in May, but send it at once.
Especially is this asked of those already owing iustal
mentsen bonds,and more especially of those owing
upon five hundred dollar bonds. Will not others, too,

This sterling Pioneer Company of the South, has a
system of well-ordered Tables of Rates of Premium,
embracing all the improvements in Life Insurance.
Its many new and liberal features present advantages
not claimed by any other Southern Company.
\ssets and Reserve secure and ample for all contin
gencies. issues Policies of Lite Insurance on as favor
able terms as any other safe company.
Business conducted ou both stock and mutual plans.
The most popular and advantageous forms, and favor
able tern's for Insurance, presented.
Business conducted with a strict regard to economy.
No unnece sary expenses permitted.
Fullest legal security to wives and children guaran
teed under charter.
Removal of all restrictions of residence, travel, or
occupation.
For the first time in the history of Life Insurance,
equalization of annual payments, where loans are ta
ken, has been established by the Georgia Mutual 1
By this device there will be no accumulation of in
terest. Payments will remain uniform, thus avoiding
a cause of misunderstanding so liable to arise under
methods adopted by other Companies.
GUARANTEE INTEREST TABLE.
The Georgia Mutual is the first Southern Company
to issue policies guaranteeing six per cent, compound
interest, in addition to the assurauce of the amount
insured.
It is confidently expected that the Dividend Annui
ties will fully equa the highest rates of interest paid
by Savings Institutions, while the policies themselves
must be held as uu investment equally as profitable and
secure ns lands or government bonds.
Bv these policies the longest lives are secured the
fullest ben< fits of their insurance in the constant re
currence of itieir annuities; and the sooner the annuity
commences, the better for the party insured.
This policy is positive in its character, simple in its
provisions, and, in its mathematical structure, within
the comprehension of ininds of the most model ate cul
ture.
I earnestly appeal to all parties interested, to assist
me in building up a Home Company whose merits and
security are luily equal, if not superior to foreign in
stitutions
