Rrfil'LAR MEETING:
Present His Honor Dr. J. W. Herty, Mayor. i
Aldermen Caraker, Ailing, Brooks, White and i
Mdier.—Absent Aldm’n. Compton.
lhe minutes of the last meeting were read *
and confirmed.
On motion the rules were suspended in order ■
to ii'-ar front the Hon. W. G. McAdoo, delegate J
from the St. Louis Convention, who appeared j
anu mode the following report:
'io the Honorable Mayor and the City Coun- !
cil of Milledgeville:
Gentlemen:—The undersigned in accordance :
with his duty, under his appointment as Dele- j
gate from Milledgeville to the Convention assem- j
bled in St. Louie, Missouri, on the 23rd ultimo, j
repaired thither as early as practicable, arriv- j
j ing at his destination early on the morning of
j the day designated for the meeting of the Con
vention.
The Convention assetnbled at noon on the
2*3rd ult., and was composed of more than six
hundred delegates representing almost every
portion of the vast territory of the United States
Hon. Stanley Mathews of Cincinnati, was made
President and Gen. W. Preston, of Kentucky,
was appointed Vice President.
Pending the report of the Committee on Or
ganization, an extraordinary scene was present
ed which cannot fail to live vividly on the
memory of all who witnessed it. Gen. W. T.
Sherman, who, as Commander-in Chief of the
U- S. army, has his head quarters in the city of
St. Louis, was invited to a seat on the platform
of the Convention.
On motion, (Jen. Joseph E. Johnston, Chair-
| man ot the delegation from Georgia, was like-
j wise invited to the platform; and his progress
1 to tlie platform and cordial band shaking with
1 General Sherman were attended by the most
| deafening applause from the vast concourse, in
] eluding tlie members of the Convention, ar.d
. the crowded galleries. This was intensified to
I the highest degree, when Geu. G. T. Beaure
gard was likewise called from his seat by a
unanimous vote ofthejConvention, and met Gens
Johnston and Sherman on the platform with
friendly greetings. It was a picture to see these
three men of history, so long, such formidable
3 on
hiy armies in mortal conflict. Unfor
tunately at this juncture, a motion, was made to
seat on the platform, the Hon. Jefferson Davis,
Chairman of the Mississippi delegation, who was |
present. But the illiberality of a few delegates ;
in certain quarters of the house prompted cries j
of “no," on which Mr. Davis promptly rose and
impel iiively declined the proffered honor. . j
Without going into details in legard to the ac
tion of the Convention, which adjourned on the
afternoon of the 24th, ult., I may safely say
that its action embodied in a series of wise and i
moderate resolutions, must exert an important j
influence on Congress in procuring the indorse- ;
mi nt of the National Government of payment !
of interest on bonds of the Pacific Railway of i
the South, with which aid this great Road so
vitally important to the development of Sooth- j
ern interest, will speedily be built National aid :
built the present Pacific Road on a high North- I
ein latitude. Justice demands National aid to j
construct a Southern line which shall never be |
impeded by snows, and which will serve the
m ist important economies in the National de- !
fence, and which is necessary to the proper de- |
velopmeutof the highest interest of the whole Re
public.
With thanks for the honor conferred by your
body, on tlie undersigued in his appointment,
and the confident hope that our own city will
feel in common with other portions of our be
loved South the stimulus of this great enterprise
in the near Allure,
I am most Respectfully your obedient servant,
W. G. McADOO
On motion the report was received and or
dered spread upon the minutes,

ENDOWMENT INSURANCE AT
LIFE RATES.
Dow Premiums—Definite Con>
tracts.
, The Cotton States Life Insurance Company of
I Macon, Ga., desirous of meeting the demand of
I the insuring public for low rates, and contracts
that can be understood by all, offers the
Endow meut-Life-Rate Policy,
with confidence that an examination ol the plan
■ is all that is necessary to commend it to the
| favor of all desiring insurance,
j This plan secures two objects :
1 1st. It provides for those dependent upon us
! in tlie event of cea’.h.
i 2d. It provides tor our old age in case we at-
j tain a stipulated age.
The low rate of premium, and the fact that
the insurancejis payable within the ordinary pe-
| riod of life, makes it
The Most Desirable form of Pol
icy jioiv offered to the Public.
The premium is as low as the usual life pre
mium where the insurance is payable only at
j death, or the age of ninety, aud the time for
payment of the insurance ranges from the ages
I of 61 to 73 years, or at. death if prior. This pe-
1 riod may be shortened at any time, at the op-
tion of the insured, by additional payments for
I that purpose.
To illustrate the difference between this plan
and the U3ual endowments, the following is
! sufficient:
In all Mutual Companies the ordinary pre
mium at age 41, payable at age 68, is $42 75
j per $1,000.
The Premium on Endowment-Life-Rate Plan
at age 41, payable at age'68, is $32 47 per thou-
‘ sand dollars. Showing a saving cf Twenty-
: Five per cent, to the Policy holder.
! Reasons for insuring ou the
| Endowment-Life-Rate Plan :
I 1st. It gives the insurance at the lowest possi
| ble cost.
. 2d. It provides for your family in case of death,
! 3d. It provides tor yourself iu old age.
i 4th. There can be no loss. In case premium?
j should be discontinued, paid-up insurance is
i given tortlie amount paid in premiums.
5th. It is better than a savings bank. The
first premium paid secures a fortune, and if pay
meuts are continued the accumulations and
amount insured will be much more than could
be earned by the most fortuuate savings bank.
6(Ii. It secures the amount at a stipulated age,
within the ordinary period of life . and
7th. Bythismeaus it is no longer necessary
to “die to win."
