Friday Morning', December 31, 1875.
The First Sorrow.
Beautiful boy! so still to-night ;
Littls pale face, ’twas once so bright;
Weary mother, with tearful eye,
Patiently hoping he will not die.
Oh, there is no griei So deep and clear, •
None springs from the heart like a mother’s
tear.
Why wilt thou leave the bright green
earth?
When the sunshine and roses are bursting
forth,
W hen joy and plenty are on the wing,
Away to welcome the beautiful Spring,
And clouds of light from the crystal shore
Are gliaiug in at window and door?
Why wilt thou go, my own sweet child?
Is the world too cruel, too sin-defiled?
Canst thou not venture thy spotless soul
Where waves of the deepest color roll?
Nor dare to launch thy little boat,
Sweet boy, on the waters unbound alloat?
Ah! I have watched thee with jealous care,
And wafted thy name on the wings of
prayer;
Have listened thy tones with earnest joy,
And caressed thy form, my angel boy.
Heaven wills it, I rise this test above.
W ith the faith and the trust of a mother’s
love. [Chambers’ Journal.
Chinese women, even of the highest
class, are not nearly so handsome, nor
by any means so cleanly, either in per
son or habits, as their Japanese sisters.
Anew Paris telescope brings the
moon to within ten miles of the earth,
and a Michigan woman thinks that if
ehfe were given room to yell she could
get up a conversation with somo other
woman up there.
Blank Firing.— Ancient sportsman,
whose sight is not what it used to be :
“Pick ’em up James, pick ’em up 1 Why
don’t you pick ’em up ?” Veteran
keeper : “ ’Cause there bean’t any down,

Ex-Senator Henderson talks too
much. The St. Louis papers daily
overflow with outgivings of the distin
guished martyr. If Mr. Henderson
were a milch cow, and yielded the lac
tea, fluid as freely as he talks, he’d be
enough to keen all St. Louis in cream.
Is made the blood of Burke boil to
think that any one could raise his hand
in wrath against so fair a Queen as
Marie Antoinette; but here is Kate
Field repeatedly declaring her inten
tion to embrace the church, and not a
bachelor protests. Verily the age of
chivalry has gone up the spout.
When walking with a gentleman, a

HOW AWFULLY CULPABLE
MUS r be those afflicted w ith Consump
tion Bronchitis, Asthma, or any dis
ease of the Lungs, Throat or Chest, who
neglect to use Dr. Tutt’s Expectorant
after reading the following letter, written
l )y , ne of the most estimable ladies in the
SAVANNAH, GA April 28 1872.
Dn. Tutt In gratitude for the benefit
received by tiie use of your Expectorant, I
iio cheerfully add my testimony to its won
derful power in curing deep-seated coughs.
For several years I suffered dreadfully with
a cough, attended wi' h great difficulty of
breathing. 1 was induced to try your m
nector&nt, and it gave almost immediate
relief I took six bottles, and am how per
fectly restored. It is about live mouths
since I began its use, and I have not had an
attack since. It has been a great blessing
to me; I cannot afford to be without it and
heartily recommend it to all who have, lung
or throat disease. Very respectfully,
Ma. A. M. Wellborn.

All Policies Non-Forfeitable—Strictly a

ENDOWMENT INSURANCE AT LIFE
RATES.
Low Premiums—Deflnite 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 faot
that the insurance is payable within the
ordinary period of life, makes it
The Most Desirable Form 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 age 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 the 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, pavabie at age 68, is
$42.75 per SI,OOO.
The premium on Endowmont-Life-Rato
plan at age 41, payable at age 68, is $32.47
per thousand dollars. Showing a saving
of Twenty-live per Cent, to the Policy
Holder.
Reasons for Insuring on tho
Endowment Life-Rate Plan :
Ist. It gives the insurance at the lowest
possible cost.
2 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 bank.
The iirst premium paid secures a fortune,
and if pa> ments are continued the accu
mulations and amount insured will be
much more than could be earned by the
most fortunate savings bank.
6th. It secures the amount at a stipulated
age, within the ordinary period of life: and
7th. By this means it is no longer neces
sary to “ die to win.” •

“THE BOYS IN GREY.”
WE were wont to admire the boys who
wore the grey, though it was not for
the grey alone, but for the noble, chival
rous hearts that beat under it. They com
manded the admiration of the true and the
brave in every land. But how few admire
a line head enveloped in grey hair and
whiskers!—very few. We all love admira
tion, and nothing in our appearance is
more calculated to secure it than pretty
hair. If old age, sickness or sorrow has
robbed you of it, you can regain it by the
use of Dr. Tutt’s Hair Dye. Its populari

KITSON'S PATENT EVENER
Attahed, and owing to reccent improvements in this Evener, the iaps when ready for
the card, only varies one quarter of an ounce to the yard. The cost of picking by this
system Is only about one mill per pound on the cloth produced, and the picker house is
safor from fire than the card room.
-There ts also a great saving of room and power over the old system.
These Machines may be seen at the mills of the Augusta Factory, Langley Manufac
turing Company, and at the best mills at Lowell, Lawrence, Fall River, Manchester
Lewiston, Providence, Richmond, Baltimore, etc., etc.
The following are a tew among many testimonials whicn we nave received:
AUGUSTA FACTORY, Augusta, Ga. July 5, 1875.
The Kitaon Machine Company, Lowell, Mass.:
Gentlemen : We have been running your Compound Opener Lappers and Finisher
Lappers, with Eveners, for more than one year, and frankly say that tiiey have given

The Kitaon Machine Company, Lowell, Maas.:
Gentlemen . I nave been running your system of Compound Opener Lappers and
Finisher Lappers, witn Eveners, for more th-'.n two years mu't at the Cotton Mill of tno
Langley Manufacturing Company, and I have found It to work the most satisfactory of
any opening and picking arrangement I have ever seen, we 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 leaves the picker without
being curled or knitted; the seeding and cleaning is very comploto. Over forty per
cent, in labor in this department is saved over the old system. Cue of the greatest con
siderations with this arrangement is its secur ty against lire.
Yours, &c., M. F. FOSTER, Superintendent.
