Vick’s Catalogue for 1871. is of course
welcomed by horticulturists throughout the
country—it stauds at the head of floral
guides. It has about 100 pages, printed on
tinted paper, with nearly 300 handsome en
gravings of flowers, etc., and besides these,
there are two brilliant chromos of the finer
petunias. An edition of 150,000 copies has
been printed—one copy being mailed to
each customer of Mr. James Vick, who, for
ten cents, will mail a copy from Rochester,
N. Y., to any address. We advise our
friends, and the ladies in particular, if they
wish to purchase flower seeds or bulbs, to
order first a copy of Vick’s Catalogue for
1871.

DOMESTIC NEWS.
There is little to record of interest, In the do
ings of the U. 8. Congress.
The Reconstruction Committee cannot agree,
and is therefore as good as dissolved. Whether
tills fact is encouraging to the Southern States or
the contrary, remains to be seen.
The Statue of Lincoln by Miss Vinnic Ream,
was recently unveiled, at Washington.
The bill increasing pensions, passed, and goes
to the President. It Involves an increased expen
diture of $5,000,000. The bill abolishing the in
come tax passed, 2(1 to 25. Blair voted no.
At latest advices heavy snows were blocking up
the highways in the North.
Foreign News.
The war draws its slow length along. Noth
ing has transpired fromtho European Convention
recently convened in London. It is believed that
Prussian policy inflated by recent successes pre
vents an (early satisfactory adjustment of difficul
ties.
It is rumored that articles of capitulation have
been signed by the authorities of Paris and Bis
marck. It is also rumored that the French popu
lace demand that the tight go on.
Things are much mixed, evidently.

BURKE’S MAGAZINE
FOR
BOYS AND GIRLS!
For 1871.
The conductors of Burke's Weekly for Boys and
Girls, in response to a very generally expressed
wish, have determined, with the new year, to
change the character of that publication into a
PIEST-CLASS MONTHLY MAGAZINE.
for tile Boys and Girls of the South. Gratefully
appreciating the remarkable favor bestowed on
their AA'eekly, and the many expressions of entire
satisfaction which have, reached them from all
quarters, they are satisfied that their paper has
supplied a want long felt at the South, and that a
well-conducted Magazine, of high moral tone,
filled with contributions from the best writers,
and embracing a large amount of valuable infor
mation, can be made highly attractive to youthful
minds, without the adventitious and pernicious
aid of sensational literature.
The same writers who have aided iu making the
Weekly so wonderfully popular, will contribute to
the Magazine. The first number will contain the
opening chapters of anew story by the author of
“Big-Foot AVallace,” “Jack Dobell,” etc., en
titled The Indians at Dirt-Dauber's Nest; a Tale of
the Seminole— told in Mr. Duval’s best style.
Mrs. Maria Pendleton Kennedt, of Virginia,
will contribute a charming story’ of Virginia Life
—The Hermitage Children.
Mary Faith Floyd will contribute a beautiful
Fairy Tale.
Dr. F. O. Ticknor, Paul 11. Hayne, Mrs. Mc-
Kinne, Mrs. Mary Ware, Mrs, S. E. Peck, Mrs.
E. E. Ford, and other well-kuown writers, will
furnish contributions of great value and interest.
All of the old and popular features of the
Weekly will be retained in the new Magazine.
The editor wiil hold his monthly chats with

The following comprise some of the unanswer
able arguments, why every Planter should imme
diately apply for a JUicy of Life Jmmrance:
1. The changes and fluctuations taking place and
liable to occur In commercial affairs.
2. Tho unreliability of labor.
8. The uncertainty of crops and of prices.
4. The absence of requisite capital to meet the
losses and disappointments which may occur.
5. The certainty of distress which in most cases
must follow the loss the head of the family by
death.
6. The certainty i provision for these contin
gencies, which a Lite Insurance Policy affords to
every family, in a good company.
The Cotton States Life Insurance Company Is a
good company, therefore a Policy in the Cotton
States Life Insurance Company is a provision which
will guard your loved ones from want, or pecuniary

WHO SHOULD INSURE.
ALL CLASSES. The rich, because they can
easily afford it, aud reverses may come, or they
may have large estates, but no ready money to
clear off encumbrances; and the result of mal-ad
miuietration may leave but little to the family.
THE POOR MAN, because he may never accu
mulate, and because immorality aud crime are
close companions of ignorance and poverty.
OUR PEOPLE, especially, should insure. The
war has impaired the fortunes of all, and many
have been left penniless. Before the war we did
not so much need it. Tho institution of slavery
made us independent of tills provision. If a man
commenced life with a few slaves, he conld rea
sonably expect that In a very few years their natu
ral increase would make his family independent.
But this has been swept from ns. It has been
truthfully said, that but few men, after the age of
forty, have laid the foundation of fortunes. How
many there are who, at that age, and beyond,
have had to begin life anew.
There is no other investment which can be
made by small installments; and the very first
payment made secures the policy as much as the
last.
FARMERS especially should insure, because it
is the surest way of providing for a family. If
wealthy, they can easily afford to carry a policy,
which In the event of death would be worth mere
in ready money than a farm. If their property is
encumbered a Life Policy is peculiarly desirable;
for how often is a farm lost to heirs, or its value
impaired by fin encumbrance which has not been
removed before the death of the owner? How
easily, too, in planting, an acre or two can be cul
tivated without extra expense, and the proceeds
set aside for the premium on a Life Policy.
POPULAR ERRORS IN SELECTING A COM
PANY.
Many persons imagine that the older a company
is, and the larger its capital, the safer it must
necessarily be. This is an error; as the assets of
a company increase so do its liabilities. The true
test of its solvency is the proportion of assets to
liabilities. Many younger companies are relatively
stronger than those of greater age and larger
growth. And in yonng companies the lives being
freshly selected, there Is manifestly less mortality.
The unprecedented success of this Company is
the best recommendation it can offer, having issued
over
2,100 POLICIES.
Upon the lives of some of the most prominent
men in Georgia, Alabama, South Carolina and
Florida.
It issues policies npon all the moßt popular plans
of Insurance; gives its policy holders every ad
vantage they can get in any company North or
South.
It is now successfully at work in Georgia, Ala
bama, North and South Carolina, Florida and Ken
tucky.
