We take great pleasure in calling the attention of all, who with to insure most advantageously to themselves, to the* card by Davis & Brother and J“hnon & Por ter, which appears in our issue this week. These gentlemen were the principal suf ferers in the fire here which we noticed not long since. Wo subjoin an account of the prompt payment by tho Company of the losses covered by their insurance in Dan ville, with the remarks of the Federal Union. The undersigned, sufferers by the great fire of the 22nd of February, in this place, feel constrained by a sense of duty, to express our profound gratification at the extraordinary promptness with which our losses have been settled and paid by this ever prompt Insurance Company, which we desire to commend to all who appreciate the value of reliable indemnity and prompt payment, when a loss occurs. The adjus ters of the /Etna were here in strong fc.rc'e promptly, and as rapidly a3 losses could be properly determined, made up proofs and paid at once. We commend A. 8. MuGroty, Esq., the gentlemanly Agent of the ./Etna Company in this place, to all who wish a certainly good policy. Losses paid us wero as follows : J. Barbour, by M. J. Durham, Ag’t. SBOO,OO G. A.

We clip from a Kentucky paper the above well merited tribute to the sterling old com pany whose name appears above, ‘inis Fort of action is no new thing with the, /Etna, but is only a sample of her usual course when disaster overtakes her policy holders.—Nearer home we have had ample evidence that the/Etna really is what she assumes to be—a national institution.— Last December she paid about $32,000 to sufferers by the Griffin and Atlanta fires, and in each instance while the ruins were still smoking. So, through a conrsc of forty years, and moYe, of honorable dealing she has cheerfully responded to upward: cf 14,000 claims for loss, amounting to over thirteen million* of dollars. Verily there is a feeling of absolute security enjoyed in the holdiug of an /Etna policy which is n .t obtained by any other species of security. Business men and property holders will do well to boar in mind wo are favored with au /Etna agency in this city. | COMMUNICATED, j Shot Himself. On last Saturday about half past ono o’clock at Mt. Zion Horatio young man who has been attending School in that place, and whobe father lives in Clinton Jones County, shot himself in the thigh, the load entering the left side, with a pistol, the muzzle of the w eapon being almost in contact with the part wounded when it fired, consequently the whole load, and wadding entered in a bulk, severing the main artery. There was but little hope of his surviv ing long, on last Sunday evening, although he was at that time thought by his Phys icians to be better than he had been at any time after thoy were called to see him. The young man is about sixteen years old, and we learned from some cf the young men who knew him, that he was beloved by all of the yonng men; alas! that one thus esteemed by his comrades, should be cut off in the bud, so buoyant with bright hopes of the future. We were informed that he had a brother who was killed by a similar accident, he also had a brother who | killed a negro ; indeed theso sad visitations I must he very afflicting tn their parents. Will parents ever succeed in raising their children to see the evils acruing from I carrying pistols, bowie knives, and other i unnecessary weapon*? Wo were informed I that nearly every hog in Mount Zion had , ! t t>ifU>l, we heard one aboat the age ot | mri. Self t going to try to sell it now. There will have to be something done to remedy this evil, what it will be we hove no idea, as parental government however good, and laic* however penal, have tliqs far failed to bring about any change, only.it appears that every year the curse grows worse. The following is a specimen of the soft answer that docs net turn away wrath _ “A good story was tnld'us (Hartford Press) the other day about Join! Van Buren. He had taken some technical, legal advantage by wh'ch his opponent’s client in an action was non-suited. The man was furious, and declared his purpose to give John a piece of his mind when he saw him—he would wither him. Happening to see John one day at Downing’s, standing at the bar. getting outside of a dozen New York boys, he boldly confronted the Prince, and, be ing a small man, looked up at him fiercely and burst out, ‘Mr. Van Buren, is there any client so low and mean, or any case so nasty, that you won’t undertake to de fendhim in it V *1 don’t know,’said John stopping to put away another oyster, then bending down and confidentially drawling out his reply in the little man’s ear, ‘what you beeu doing 1” ty The Atlanta Intelligencer is respon sible for this anecdote : “FiRR and Brimstone.”—We are in debted to Judge Lumpkin, of the Supreme Court, for tho following anecdote, for tho truth of which he vouches : A gentleman named——, in Marion, Alabama, was seriously ill. His neighbors and’ friends were in attendance, as usual on such cct ibione, watching by bis bed side, to see the last fiiekerings of the lamp of life go out, when, accidentally, a box of Luci fer matches iu the house took fire, when the supposed dying man. speaking to his weeping wife, exclaimed : “Ou Mary, the Devil has Gome, for I see the ‘fire and smell tue brimstone!’ Mr. did not die, however; but fs now living and doing well. The fright, in all probability, produced a re action in his coporal system and saved his life. [communicated.] The Lumpkin Law School. When conversation has turned upon the public men of our State, the questions have bean often put, where did ho graduate t where was his professional instruction re ceived. In coming years the Lumpkin Law School will, we hope, be pointed to as the nur6ery of Georgia’s leading citi zens. This institution, so much demanded by the wants of tho profession, has been founded chiefly from a desire to afford the Advantages of legal instruction to our young men, and to consummate the influence of talent and energy in elevating the Lawyer’s position. Such motives guide the endeav ors of men, conscious of intent to serve “their day and generation,” and of the still nobler impulse to transmit tlfe bles sings of fame and educated worth to those who shall “come after us.” Th school is now. being attended in the second session by above forty students— which number will, we suppose, be aug mented even bcfoic the close of the pres ent session. Avery small minority of the first class (and these hindered by uticon eontrollable circumstances) have not re turned we understand. It is an argument of success that the institution with no self made commendations should thus so soon recommend its advantages to the ambitious and honest.youtlied our State. And why should not the sods of to-day assemble iu iu6 groves of congenial sun and shade, to accomplish those real attainments which aro alone sufficient to win the affection ot brother men, and the admiration of in telligent strangers. It is from no sectional blindness, or selfish distrust of other lands simply, that we allude to the claims of some thing near to our homes. Our State cer tainly needs such an institution; let it be built up by tlioso among us that we shall admire the ornament and worship the buil ders.- The long practice of our profession al students has been either to undergo a short apprenticeship with some eminent member of the bar, or to read privately the few books which are said to furnish prepar ation to appear in the court-room. This system, oi rather native talent and energy improving upon it, has indeed given us no ble specimens of giant-like excellence.— But this ago demands something different. The advance into successful practice is nec essarily growing more retarded. A few years since and the youth of a few legal maxims and attractive sentences was ready to commence his course. Then the vulgar deemed him smart, and as he gained their praise so he did their business. But as knowledge is becoming moro spread, the people at large can more easily fathom the attainments of the young advocate—nay, they will from familiarity despise many of his most admired schemes. We need not be astonished at hearing desponding com plaints from such beginners. Indeed, too maLy of our youth have mistaken even the course pursued by the last generation of Lawyers. Their preparation was indeed hasty, bet those who succeeded did pre pare, though too often many of them re lieved their laborious concentrativeness of thought in the expanding and oblivious hours of dissipation. Too many imitate these in little study and dissipation only.— The young disciple of Law must now delve deeper into the hidden mysteries of this great and ever widening science. It is not safe to put off the commencement of a methodical plan of study until the first un employed years oi the office are being pass ed through. In the institution of which i Iwe wri'e tho advantages are certainly j I good. The instruction is not given by ‘ I those who simply know theories, or who ran j of Amplictyonic eotir,-1 cils, or the edicts of Justinian. Each pro fessor ha? solved these mysteries, and is now ready to illustrate almost every prin ciple with some palpable example. Iu other words they are or have been practic ing lawyers, and superiors the State does not claim. The departments of study are separate, but the frequent allusions of one to the other will hut exhibit the great har mony'and impress the importance of com paratively insignifieaut principles. Tho chief aim of such schools is the fixing of principles, vere scire, est scire per causa k. — Many oi the modern members of the pro fession are confining themselves too much fb collecting decisions simply to gain a cause by weight of authority. The decis ion of our own Supreme Court are sup planting the study of text-books among our younger men. The two systems should be united, the rules and the decisions.— Close reading will impress the one, while it is the province of memory to collect, and the exercise of legal training appropriately to apply, tho other. Iu this school these advantages are attained in the text-book the lecture and the Moot Court. But further in favor of the school we will say, that our country in its advance will necessarily require the development of the profession in the special branclios. Men of different tA.Onts and desires may confine their studies and practice to one department. If this system .is to be in augurated certainly the school is the bet ter place to direct the first effrrts toward such an end. First permit the youth to scan as it were the great divisions of the science and afterwards he may choose that pathway which will lead to the more use ful and eminent distinction. Identity should be a noble aim in every profession while universal knowledge is the highest accomplishment thereto. With the exam ples before them and a true ambition at heart tllS ?“ n s of Georgia will continue to join the ranks whose conquests nr<3 justice and fame. Let them consider well their armory and drill, let them not wait till the school has established a reputation, but go at once to assist iu this enterprise of State pride and improvements. A diploma from this school entitles the bearer to bn heard in all the tribunals of the State. The ris ing generation should appreciate these endeavors to build up a separate profession simply of lawyers. The experiment is at least in an honorable cause, and it de volves mainly upon the graduates to prove its success. As our State growls iu years lei her cemetery he remembered, and the wants of the future prompt every energy of her citizens. Real aid and zealous in terest will we hope make the town of Ath ens the home of instruction equal to any in the land. It should not be a place re nowned for costly pile and inviting luxury, but rather tho youth should bo sent forth from it, carrying solid attainments, and showing to the world that they have mould ed symmetrical genius in the atmosphere, of every temporal blessing. ‘Such shouhl’be particularly the case -with tho Lumpkin Law School. Her sons are needed. May runny come forth from her walls fit for high raspousibilities. Extracts from au April Fcol Received in Grceuesbnro. “It was only yesterday evening while gazing at the beautiful heavens, and watch ing the twinkling stars, that you were brought vividly to my mind, and I was forced to exclaim these beautiful and senti mental lines, “How doth the little busy bee, Improve each shining hour, And gather honey all the day, From every opening flower.”. I guess-if you are a reader of Byron, you have read and admired theso sweet and expressive lines ere this. And now kind ono can’t you turn your thoughts to me occasionally, and anticipate the many happy houis we may yet spend in each otlieis society—wandering amid Magnolia groves listening to the gay carols of the myriads of sylvan songsters that will hover o’er us,'and tnerily hopping from branch to branch watching us as we eat lasses candy ; And now for the sake of one who would fully appreciate youi friendship, (or love either) can’t you bestow one, passing thought on me, and the lasses candy l While indulging in rny day-dreams, I have attempted to find language to express the deep, unutterable love I have cherished lor thee, and after searching poem after poem through, have found the.very lines suitable to ray case exactly, they read thus: Let dogs delight to bark ana bito, For God lias made them so &c &c. I consider them so exquisite, so senti mental soul stiring, and so applicable in my case.” After alluding to the privileges of “leap year,” and saying that if she failed to cap tivate any, some of us will “have missed a model wife,” she concludes with these monitions, “Marry, marry while you can, Ere old age advances, Year by year as on they roll, Away goes all your chances.” “Aud again, if you always speak the truth and never tell a —(l mean truth with variations) you will get through the world as slick as an “Eel” in a mud hole.” Aftei chiding herself for writing ‘so much,’ congratulating her ‘sentimentality,’ aud ex pressions of fears that the “palpitation” of her “heart” would grow worse and per haps prove fatal,” she said “with a wave of the hand I bid you a hasty adieu.” Your ever to be adored, “MINNIE.” . A Godless U.vvekse. —A man may, for twenty years, believe in the immortali ty of the soul; in the one nnd twentieth, in some great moment, he for the first time discovers with amazement the rich moan ing of this belief. No one iu creation is so alone as the denier- of God , he mourns j with an orphaned heart that has lost its j Great Father, by the corpse of nature, i which no world-spirit moves and holds to- \ get her, and which grows in its grave; and he mourns by that corpse till lie himself j I crumbles off trom it. The whole world lies, j before hirp like the Egyptian sphynx of j I stone, half buried in the sand, aud tho all is the cold iron wash of n formless eternity. I JlUNl'Aip. I improvements Recommended by tbe Art Commission.-— The Art Commission, in thoir report, recommend several impor tant improvements at tho Capitol. They state that all passages which, from their situation, caifnot bo well lighted, should be painted simply in flat colors, with such light ornaments as will render them light and cheerful. More than this would be inappropriate.” Color should be so arranged as not to ndd to this as in the present instance. In all places where, stucco ornaments are exposed to constant mutilation it is deemed useles to waste money in painting in other than, the sim plest inodes, as works of art would very soon be rendered worthless and unsightly in situations where every little breakage or abrasion would expose the plaster un derneath. And the Commissioners notice, with some surprise, that no provision has been made for the piotection of the numerous plaster angles which occur throughout the halls and lobbies of both wings of the Cap itol extension. This oversight is the more extraordinary when they find expensive painting and gilding, as in some of the lower halls and in tho state room of the Senate, where mutilations have already ta ken place. Ornamentation in stucco is not properly employed where permanence, is desirable. Its meretricious character renders it better suited to temporary pur poses, where the employment of wood or bronze wculd be too expensive. Through out the building there is a redundancy of ornamentation, cheap and showy in some instances, and employed where ornament is not required, like the breaking up of large spaces into small ones, thus destroy ing the very repose which the eyo in stinctively seeks. There are other instances equally incon giuous, where expensive bronze ornaments are fastened upon woodon doorways and jams, much to their detriment. If it were desirable to enrich the doorways leading to the galleries of the Senate and House, it should ho done by carving the ornaments in tho same material of which the doors were made, thus forming a part of them, instead of their being detached and fasten ed on afterwards. This would have secu red harmony. The bronze employed in Hie piesent instance,.when seen at the dis tance of a few yards, upon a light ground, has the effect of so many unintelligible dark spots, incapable of light and shade in themselves, and consequently disturbing the general unity of the halls. Carving in wood is a legitimate mode of ornamentation, and is capable of being ren dered rich and effective. Bronze and mar ble are no less so when applied ; hut cas tings from natural objects can never sub serve this purpose, because they must al-. ways be brought in contact witli modelled or mechanically wrought surfaces, with which, however beautiful in themselves, they have no affinity or relation. This is a principle in taste long-eince established, and a departure from it is an acknowledg ment of an inability to fulfil, or an igno ranee of the legitimate requirements of nit. Washington Union. The Crea.r Job. That job ol jobs, tho raising of the en tire block of builuiugson the north side of Lake-street, from Clark to Lu Salle-strects, is progressing rapidly. The buildings are being undermined, tho huge timbers got under, and to someextent, the screws have been in operation. Persons unacquainted with the details of raising entire blocks of massive masonry, can form no adequate idea of the stupendous enterprise. Avery short time ago, when we first read of tho raising of brick and stone buildings, we vyero struck with amazement. Wooden buildings were raised every day ; hut this getting under solid walls and raising them without shivering the superstructure into thousands of fragments, was quite another tiring. We regarded it in the light of an untested and speculative theory—a hobble, which would burst and cud in nothingness. But ’facts are stubborn things,’ as the trite adage expresses It; and tho fact is that ocular demonstration, the great leveller of unbelief and incredulity, has left us no pos sible chance for doubt. We have seen huge brick and stone, edifices going right up before our eyes, several feet in the air, propelled by the power of the mighty screw. Every day in Chicago may he witnessed this spectacle. The greater jior tiou of the buildings in our most public streets have been raised in this manner from two to eight feet ; and those which have not been raised, must sooner or later come ‘up to grade.’— Chicago Herald. A Steam Hammer intended to be employed in the forging of the Armstrong guns lias lately been constructed in England and is of immense power. The hammer bar and faces weigh four tons, and the cylinder in which this bar works, .wit* its glands, within a few hundred weight of six tons. The cylinder is supported on two frames, each ot nine tons, ami each of those again rests on a bod-plate of the same weight. Through these bed plates pro jects the anvil, which is amass of wrought iion, faced with steel, and imbedded in an immense block of cast-iron, weighing up wards of 21 tons. The stroke can be giv en witli a force exactly corresponding with the weight of the hammer; while on the one hand this force can he diminished nt pleasure, or, on the other, greatly increas ed by the application of the propelling stoam above or below” the piston.
