AUGUSTA,
♦♦♦
Tuesday Morning, December 28, 1875.
Empty Socks,
’Tis “merry Christinas”—so they say—
As such, in faith, I take it;
But ’tis to me as sad a day
As Memory can make it.
The visions of the Past arise;
And my sad heart remembers
The hopes and fears, thesruiles and sighs
Of all those dead Decembers.
’Twere vain to hang the mistletoe;
No lips as red as cherries,
Will lure me, as, when long ago,
I plucked the pearly berries.
I’d faith in heaven, and trust in love,
In those glad years—long over:
Ah me! I then was “hand and glove”
With Hope, and “lived in clover.”
I had a chateau then—in Spain,
And hawks and hearts in plenty;
But things have gone “against the grain”
Since I was—one and twenty.
Perhaps?—St. Nick is generous,
But still of fraud it savors,
That in glad gilts he brings to us
Who need the most such favors.
No “gobbler” shall I “gobble up,”
No mince pies mince thereafter,
Whilst tilling high the crystal cup
With champagne’s liquid laughter.
For those who have both fires and furs,
The yule-tide may seem jolly;
But in my cold heart memory stirs,
I And makes me melancholy.
Ah! Hope will learn at lust to doubt,
And Love wield scorpion lashes;
Too soon the yule log glimmers out,
And leaves me only—ashes.
Yet, tho’ the Christmas chimes have
brought
But echoes of past pleasures,
. The “New Years ’ that my dreams have
wrought
-j Are full of old time treasures.
1 Hope’s “Happy New Year” that awakes
After doubt’s dark December,
Khali bring me every gift that makes
Hearts willing to remember.
A lucky, loving, laughing year,
A fitting mate for Cupid,
Who brings bright days and gladsome
cheer,
To even tho poor—and stupid.
lie brings me back my boyish dreams,
(I’m now past twenty-seven ;)
Again my “sweetheart” faithful seems.
I’ve trust in—hearts—and—heaven.
Oh! glad beneficence of Hope!
A flower e’n frosts leave sappy
And sweet—with dews from heaven’s
cope:
“New Years” are always “happy."
A Bkkeaved Bachelor.

ENDOWMENT INSURANCE AT LIFE

Low Premiums—Definite Con
tracts.
The Cotton States Life Insurance Com
pany, of Macon. Ga., desirous of meeting
the demand of the insuring public for low
rates, and contracts that can be under
stood by all, offers the
Endowment Life-Rate Policy,
With confidence that an examination of the
plan is all that is necessary to commend it
to the favor of all desiring insurance.
This plan secures two objects:
Ist. It provides for those dependent upon
us in the event of death.
2d. It provides for our old age in ease
we attain a stipulated age.
The low rate of premiums, and the fact
that the insurance is payable within the
ordinary period of life, makes it
The Most Desirable Fcrm of
Policy Now Offered
the Public.
The premium is as low as the usual life
premium where the insurance is payable
only at death, or the ago of ninety, and
the .time for payment of the insurance
ranges from the age of 61 to 73 years, or at
death if prior. This period may be short
ened at any time, at the option of Hie in
sured, by additional payments for that
purpose.
To illustrate the difference between this
plan and the usual endowments, the fol
lowing is sufficient:
In all Mutual Companies the ordinary
premium at age 41, payable at age 68, is
$42.75 per SI,OOO.
The premium on Endowment-Life-Rate
plan at age 41, payable at age 68, is $32.47
per thousand dollars. Showiug a saving
of Twenty-five per Cent, to the Policy
Holder.
Reasons for insuring on the
Endowment Life-Rate Plan ;
Ist. It gives the insurance at the lowest
possible cost.
2 i. It provides for your family in case of
death.
3d. It provides for yourself in old age.
4th. There can be no loss. In case pre
miums should be discontinued, paid-up in
surance is given for the amount paid in
premiums.
sth. It is better than a savings hank.
The first premium paid secures a fortune,
and if pay ments are continued the accu
mulations and amount insured will be
much more than could be earned by the
most fortunate savings bank.
6tli. It secures the amount at a stipulated
age, within the ordinary period of life: and
7tn. By this means it is no longer neces
sary to “ die to win.”

INCREDULITY,
HOW potent is this trait of the human
mind. The Bible refers to it and
says: “Were an angel to come down from
heaven, ye would not believe.” It is the
cause of much injury. We are disposed to
doubt the sincerity of our best friends, and
so far is it indulged, that iu often leads to
misanthropy.
This is particularly applicable to the vir
tues of many truly valuable remedial
agents, however strong they may be en
dorsed.
Reader, if you have Dyspepsia, Fever
and Ague, Sick Headache, Torpid Liver,
Bilious Colic, Kidney Disease, Flatulence,
Constipation of the Bowels or General De

Gentlemen, t nave been running your system of Compound Opener Lappen and
Finisher Lappers, witn Eveners, tor more th two years ou--t at the Cotton Mul ol me
Langley Manufacturing Company, and I have found it to work the mod satisfactory of
any opening and picking arrangement I have ever seen, vve have not weighed a pound
of cotton upon the picker apron since starting, yet we have had a remarkable regularity
of numbers. The staple is not injured by over beating, and it loaves the picker without
being curled or knitted; the seeding ami cleaning is very complete. Over forty per
cent, in labor in this department is saved over the old system. One of the greatest con
siderations with this arrangement is its seeur ty against tire.
Yours, Ac., M. F. FOSTER, Superintendent.
