On the evening ol the 21st the aisles, seats, ver libule and gallery of the Methodist Church were crowded with an eager and excited throng, each anxious to catch the first glimpse of the lovely and, charming bride and the handsome and tal ented groom. At 9 o’clock the bridal party ar rived; the attendants maiched up the left aisle and look their positions around tbe beautiluily festooned altar. The bride and groom then passed slowly up the left aisle evidently embarrassed, yet with a full consciousness of ibe weighty re sponsibility of the nuptial vows thty were ou the eve of consummating. Upon their arrival at the altur every noise was hHsbed, not even the rustling of a silk nor the heavy breathing of relatives and friends could be beard. In tbe midst of this pro found silence the Rev. D. J. Myrick proceeded, in tbe most solemn and impressive style, to pro nounce the marital vows and declare them united for life, according to the conventionalities of law aud society. After the ceremony the bridal party, with iuviUd guests, left the church and a.-sembled at the resi dence of the bride's lather. The queenly appear ance of the bride, robed in her magnificent bridal (roxxeau, and tbeebirmingappearance of the happy groom, added large y to the pleasure aud enjoy ment of those ; resenc. The munificent colla tion prepared was equal to anything of the kind it has ever been our privilege to attend. Every ihing that was deligbttnl to the eye or pteas.int to tne taste was Interspersed over the able in rich prolusion. On Wednesday night the bride and groom were tendered a social reunion at tbe residence ol the gruom’s mother, some fix miles in the country. A large crowd was in attendance and had a most pleasant and engaging time. Beauty, taste and elegance were prothsely displayed in the uaraoge meut ot the tables and decoration cf the cakes. A Very handsome cake ornamented the centre cl the tabic with a talr represeututien of the “ caged bride.” ' hotal reception. Ou Thursday night Mr. H. G. Bean and his ac complished lady gave the bride and groom a grand and royal reception. On iliis oecagion the un bounded tioi-pitaiity of Captain Bean was clearly demonstrated in one of the grandest ovations that has been known in our midst for a long while. Tiie,long tables groaned wiih the costliest ar.d rarest viands, while here and there beautiful young ladies, not lute lor to m ide.-t Dima, served ntn biosiii and spaikling nectar to tbe beauty and wit of cur lair lit le cdty.

Commendable.— Mr. Editor: Your article iu the last issue ot The Advertiser, on the subject ol Gianges, is of such a nature that entitles you to the gratitude of uot only tire farmers, but also ot every class of men who live by honest toll. Yi/heu we look over the journals o! the nation, we find a large majority engaged in sycophantic flattery ibe Luge capitalists. The columns ot many newspapers teem with praises of the rich and great. Public speakers engage iu the syco pbantic worship of meu iu power, and but few speakers or writers upholds the cause of the op pressed. We heartily agree with you, that self preservation is at the bottom of this rnovanent of the farmers. Such the case, men had as well attempt to stay the flood tides of the ocean as to attempt to check i! progress. You are correct.xyica-futr ssy, “ this" country too' new—her people too vigorous—to sink under moneyed monopolists.” During aud siute the war a class of men eauit lu power whose highest r.im was to amass money. This formed what lias sometimes been called the Shoddy Aristocracy;—meu who believed that money alone was necessary to constitute great ness. 'fhis class of men employed tbeir time and taleuts to influence legislation in their favor, and •hey succeeded to a great extent in this matter. They hsveconnected the general government into a gigantic machine to be run in their interest. The moneyed meu bought the United States Ccn gress. They asked for land grants to build rail roads, aud Congress gave them land enough dur ing a single session of that body, to settle as many inhabitants as live iu Great Britain. These huge moneyed organizations have corrupted nearly ev ery State Ltgislaiure in the Union. In Pennsyl vania, during the last session ol the Legislature, one ot the-members of that body moved to ad journ, saying, 41 that he did not know of any other business Tom. Scott had for them to traus act.” This is certainly a sad but true state of af fairs ot the nation. The large capitalists and mammoth moneyed organizations have been ab? sorbing tbe profits asising from the cultivation of the soil, until patience, on the part of the farmers, has ceased to be a virtue. Tbe crops grown in tbe South are nearly as largo as they were before the war, while cotton hag usually soid from 50 to 100 p>er cent, above the ante-war prices. The amount ol money arisiig from the crops grown in the nation is greater now ihan before tbe war. Where then is tbe money? It is In the country; but then it is iu the bands of a few capitalists and moneyed ot aanizaiipns; whereas before tbe war it was in the bauds ol the bulk of the people. This concentra tion ofal! capital, in the hands of (ht f?ie, strikes a blow at the very foundations upon which Repub lican institutions rest. Your manly course iu up holding the oppressed farmers and masses gener ally, against the huge capitalist, is likely to bring down upon you the anathemas of the latter class, but do not tlmth, for it is a law of nature, that whenever there is great oppression, that the man | who upholds the oppre sed will receive the bless ings of those ready to perish. The mau who has the capacity *ad the courage to defend the masses in this terrible ordes! through which the nation is passing, will be caught up by the Irre sistible current of popular sentiment and borne to positions of influence and honor.

Address of the Executive Commit* tee of Foray tli, Ga., Board, By resolution of the Board of Trustees of the Forsyth Branch, the following Address is irsued by the Executive Committee: Ofpice cf the So. Lire Ixs Cos., ) Forsyth, Ga. Oct. 24th, 1873. ) To the Citizen* of Monroe County and the State of , Georgia: The subject to which we invite yoar attention is, we think, of sufficient importance to justify this address. The propsition, that is important to the people of the Southern States, impoverished as they have been by the the war, to retain all the money which it is possible to invest safely and profitably among themselves, is too self-evident to need argument. It has been sfated in a carefully prepared official report, “tht the money taken from the Bouth : uce tbe war, for life insurance amounts to the enoimons sum of sixty millions of dollars ;” and it is also estimated that not less than from six mill ions to eight millions annually are sent from the Son tern States lor the same purpose. To check the flow of this golden current from the South,and to turn it upon her devastated fields, to restore something of what has been drained from them, and to assist in building up our waste places, is the object ol the Southern Life Insurance Company. We have been sollcted, and have, lu order to found one organization for the whole South, con sentid to join this holy enterprise. Founded on a solid moneyed basts, with ample capital and accumulation oi assets, its ratio of assets to lia bilities, (the true test of a Compiny’s strength) equals all the older cj-jjames. Wnile there are several departments, tacy are departments of the same Company, and eaeu and every one guaran tees t e paymeut ot the policies of the Company. The Southern was the first Life Insurance Com pany organized since the war, lor the purpose of arresting the drain of money Irom the Southern Staus, and investing it at home; aud its marked success has not only proved that the South ha 6 intelligence, and character sufficient for the prop er conduct ol such business ; but Las also given increased confidence in the security and stability of investment made at home of ihe earnings and accumulations ot our people. It is'no part of its ptogrumuie, upr is it neces sary to its success, that it-should decry the secu rity cf other companies. But it claims to be it self secure, and it expects to succeed upon the 1 basis ol the positive b mefits which it aflords to individuals and lo communities, and by the proper management of its own business. 1 Its declared purpose is to invest in each locality, in which it does business, so much of the reserve ' iund derived from the butiuess of that locality as ' shall, upon advice with local trustees, be deter mined to be just and judicious, aud to retain ail, within the limits of the Southern States so much iu n;ed of capi'al ; and its reports show that tuis has letn actually and iaithfu'ly done to very laigC and rapidly increasing extent. To give assurance to the citiz ns of this com muuity, at.d to a;.-i.-t iu carrying it cut, the Uom- I pany, through Gen. Juo. B. Gordon, lriesident of the A.lanta Department, lies appointed a Bourn oi T. u.-lces lor the polity Li I tors iu flic County of Monroe: with whom a lornnil and legal contract has been entered into,to carry out these purposes. This board of Trustees, being policy-holders iu the Company, elects the President, officers, and aa Executive Committe of their own body, to conduct the business of the Company, aud to as sist it, by their advice,a to the amount and nature of investments of the reserve fund which shall be from time to time made in said County. Lo.-ses will be adjusted at the Forsyth office, 1 without the trouble, expense, and uncertainty at tending collections at ren ote points and from un known persocr. Iu order to check the immense drain of*cp'tfa! from the South to ihe North, we have made sat isfactory arrcngecK D‘l6 to transfer parties who are pew paying premiums to Northern Cornpa tucsvVithuUt loss or additional annual outlay The undersigned, being the Executive Commit tee appointed by the Forsyth Board, iuliy believe that the Company furnishes all the necessary ele ments ot strength, stability and character, and of purpose and object to commend it to the support ol our citizens, and the confidence of the people ot Georgia and the South. In view ot the itrcat anc manliest importance of retaining capital at home, we urge upon our lel -1 jw-citizms a careful examination ol the claims of this Company. The office at Forsyth and the auxiliary offices throughout our jurisdiction, w ill furnish all infor mation and receive applications for iuiurance in this Company. The Board of Trustees desires to especially rcccomrncud to the citizens ol Monroe county and the State, Col. R. N.

A CARD- Editor Monroe Advertiser : The undersigned mem uc-re of the Forsyth Board of the Republic Life Insurance Company res;cctlully request that ycu publish ihe following card in justice to this ster ling and mas. enterprising institution, in proof that every promise Irom iheir mausger and agent has been compiled with, and for the eneoursge i mint of other communities in Georgia desiring j the advantages of these local investments. To enterprising and business men : Since the formation of a Board o! the Republic Lile Insur ance Compauy i l our city, ten brick stores, a bans and a brick hotel bave been erected ; a spirit of improvement pervades the entire community, and a three story Republic Block, an ornament in any city would be about complete but for unfor seen and unavoidable circumstances. Mr. Good now had paid £SOO for a plan, mechanics had nude their bids, the lot wss purchased and $20,000 of the money was ready, out in consequence of diffi culties in getting possession of the ground, the erection of the building is postponed until next Spriug. It is proper to state that the company, through jts agents, urged the completion of the building this Fall From aa investigation pi' this jJompany, we can say its plana ere liberal, its purposes are eminently commendable, and its capital is immense. In it we buy so much insurance for so much money. We find no uncertain promises, but a simple plan and definite contract; security for ogr families, and a concentration ot capital for build ing up our waste places. It is your home Company, backed by a capital stock of $2,0C0,0C0; and we are insured in it lor tbe amounts opposite our names. Respectfully, \Ym. L. Lampkin, President, SIO,OOO. J. S.

Natural Decay—Protect the System.— The human body is a machine, and therefore can not endure forever; but, like a watch or sewing machine, it will last much longer if propeily reg ulated and duly repaired, than if no pains were taken to keep it iu Older. The great object of every one who desires long and healthy life should be to put hie body in the life thi -.atoning influences by which yie are more or less surrounded; and no invigonmt and corrective at present known so effectively answers the pur pose as the vitalizing elixir, which, under Kor un pretending name of Ilostelter’s Stomach Bitters, has been for twenty years the standard tonic ol America. In crowded cities, where the almos phtie ie contaminated with the effluvia insepara ble from large populations; in marshy regions, where the soil reeks with miasma; on the prairies and in the forests, where every fail the air is taint ed with exhalations from retting weeds and grass es, or decomposing leaves—in short, iu every lo cality where malaria exists, this powerful vegeta ble autidote is urgen.ly needed. Fever and uue, bilious levers, congestion of tbe iiver, jaundice, rheumatism, and all diseases which arc generated by infetted air, impure water, or sudden changes of temperature may be averted by strengthening and regulating the system in advance with Hos tetler’s Bitters. Autumn is always a season of peril, especially to weak, susceptible organiza tions. Even the more vigorous are ant to be in some measure depressed by the humid atmosphere, loaded with deletereriotis g-e-es produced by the i vegetable decay. Tbe fall is a period of the year when the renovation and regulation ot tbe living machine is peculiarly impoilant; aud the Bitters should therefore be taken drily at tbis critical season. >*+ Beyond the Mississippi.—Thousands have al ready gone, and thousands more are turning th ir eyes towards new hemes in the fertile Wist. To those eoing to Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska, Colo rado, Utah, Wyoming, Nevada, Oregon or Cali fornia, we recommend a cheap, safe, quick and di rect route, via St. Louis, over the Missouri Pa cific Railroad, which runs its fine Day Coaches and Pullmans Sleepers Irom St. Louis to nrinci pal points in the West, without change.
