Good Advice—Who Can Follow it ?—•“Live merrily, oh, my fHendß, free from cate, anguish, grief of mind—live merrily. Again and again I request you to be merry. If any thing trouble your heads or vex your souls, neglect and contemn it—let it pass. ' And this I enjoin you, not as a divine alone, but as a physician; for without this mirth, ■which is the life and quintessence of physic, medicines, and whatever are tised. to prolong the life of man, are <dull, dead and of no force.” Thus wrote Ticinus to a friend. Tiresias holds forth in the same strain, when he tells us: “Contemn the world, and count all that is in it vanity and toys. This only covet all thy life long. Be not curidus or over-solicitous in anything; but with a well composed and contented estate, enjoy thyself, and above all things, be merry.” Mr. Henry S.

It had a front on the river of two and two-thirds arpents by forty in depth; and there are at least fifteen hun dred orange trees upon it. —The passion of DeLue, the natural philosopher, for music was so predomi nant in his latter days that a piano was placed by his bed-side, on which his daughter played a great part of the day. On the evening of his death, seeing her father ready to sink into another slum ber. she asked him, “Shall I play any more?” “Keep playing,” said he; “Keep playing !” He slept but awoke hO more.” —The amount of vacant public lands in the late insurrectionary States is as follows: Alabama, 6,732,058 acres; Mississippi, 4,760,737; Louisiana, 6,228,102 ; Arkansas, 0,298,012; Flori da, 10,879,035 ; total, 46,398,5-13 acres. —Ebenc/.er Child, the oldest inhabi tant of Gastleton, Vermont, died on the 10th instant.

Its reliability and promptness in immediately paying all losses, is well known, and renders it an institution of pride to our citizens. Its officers are courteoufvgentlemen, with years of experience in the business, to which fact, coupled with their eminent fitness for the position, its remarkable prosperity must be mainlv attributed. The Era says: Acts Speak 'Louder than Words — We are gratified to learn on inquiry that the Insurance Company which paid so promptly its loss by the fire on the corner of Whitehall and Oecatur streets, is aSouthern Company, and none other than that reliable institution of our State, The Georgia Home Insurance Company of Columbus, of which Mr. Jno. C. Whitner is Agent. The payment was made within twelve hours after the first cry of fire was heard, whilst smoke was still issuing from the ruins. No third party came forward to sift and feel about for flaws, but the Agent issuing the policy also makes the payment just so soon as satisfied of its justness. . . We ask our merchants and citizens to note these facts. The cry has been raised that, all Southern Companies were totally ruined. The answer to this is, their investments were made before the war, and were neverchanged. Their loss, therefore, was merely the profits and the labors for four years—though some, like the Georgia Home. Have even come out better than they entered the war. It is false that they are insolvent. A most remarkable feature of Southern Companies is the absence of "‘Special Agents” and “Adjusters” to settle up losses. They go on the presumpiion that the man they appoint as agent is honest and capable, suffi ciently so to be entrusted with the responsible duty of making out a policy promising to pay you in case of loss, ana sufficiently so as to yay up losses when they do occur. When, there fore. you insure with them, your last transac tion is with the same man—your friend, your neighbor, yAur fellow-citizen—with whom your first occurred. We do not mean to be sectional in our ad vice, but we do think when we can build up ourselves and our own people at the same cost and with greater an vantage to ourselves, it is our duty'to do so. There arc a number of Southern Companies represented here who are perfectly reliable. Call on that experienced Insurance man and polite Southern gentleman, Mr. Whitner. at SlcCamy & Co.’s Drugstore, and he will give you a list that will surprise you.
