my son would aid me wlieu I am too feeble
to’work ; but it is the Lord who hath taken
my child away, and he doetli all things well.
I wish you all to pray for me. I find no

CONGRESS.
Congress will adjourn to-day—Saturday—at 13
o’clock. The new Congress will immediately be
organized and probably adjourn t ill December—
except perhaps the Senate, which may sit to hear
from the Sau Domingo Commissioner. The new
House of Representatives, is composed of 136 Re
publicans and % Democrats Independents. There
are t-t vacancies to fill. It is probable that Speaker
Blaine will be re-elected.
During the past week, all the places in the Sen
ate have been tilled for the first time since the war,
by the admission of Dr. Miller of (leorgia to his
seat. A bill was passed, to build a 'Southern Pa
cific Railroad—the Eastern interior point to be
Marshall, Texas. The etlort to repeal the income
tax failed. _________________
THE FOREIGN NEWS.
Peace.
The great event of the week is the conclusion of
peace between Prussia and France. The month
of February lias been consumed in the election of
a French Assembly—the retiring of the Provision
al Government—the formation of anew French
Government—the ratification of the terms of peace
agreed upon. M. Thiers was chosen President of
the National Assembly and Chief Executive of the
French Republic. Anew ministry has been
formed as follows: Jules Dufaure, Minister of
Justice; Jules Favre, Minister of Foreign Affairs;
Ernest Picard, Minister of the Interior; Jules Si
mon, Minister of Public Instruction ; Felix Lam
brecht, Minister of Commerce .- General Le Flo,
Minister of War; Admiral Potthuan, Minister of
the Marine. The new government is a strong one,
probably the strongest that could lie selected in
ttie present temper of the French people. It is
highly conservative in political stripe, and under
its auspices there is not the slightest hope for the
restoration of the empire. It remains to be seen
whether a limited monarchy will be favored. The
empire is doubtless defunct. Theirs lias always
been an Orleanist; and the Count of Paris, grand
son of Louis Philippe has now a change, perhaps,
for a throne. Thiers and Favre and the Consul
tation Commission of the Constituent Assembly
accepted the following conditions of peace; First.
The cession of Alsace and Metz, lmt Belfort
to be restored to France; Second. The payment of
a war indemnity of live milliards of francs; Third.
A portion of French territory, with some forti
fied towns like Sedan, to remain in possession of
t he Germans until the conditions of the treaty are
fulfilled; tourth. The German army to enter Paris
on Monday and occupy the Champs Elysees;
Fifty. Peace to be proclaimed when the, French
Assembly ratifies these conditions.
The French Assembly ratified these terms, with
little debate, by a vote of 540 to 107; and they
were carried into effect as soon as possible. On
last Wednesday (March 1) 00,000 men of the Prus
sian Army entered the quarter of Paris assigned
them—to which they were to he restricted, for
fear of an uprising of the people, and a bloody
light. Most of the French abandoned that quar
ter. Few people were on the streets—they mostly
women in mourning going to mass. The follow
ing dispatches appear this (Saturday),jjnorning:
Paris, March 3.—Some Germans who had passed
the line of demarkation, offering their hands and
saying now peace is concluded we are friends, but
were repulsed with the. reply, we are conquered
bnt with conditions imposed by Bismarck, we
never can be friends. Some disguised Prussian
officers penetrated into the city bnt were soon
recognized, and their lives being iu danger from
tee people, they were protected by the authorities
and reconducted into the German lines. The popu
lace are less calm than yesterday. Favre has gone
to Versailles to-day to demand the immediate
evacuation of Paris by the virtue of The terms of
the Conventions.
London, March 3.—A dispatch from Versailles
says the French indemnity is payable in three in
stallments, viz.: one milliard of thalers, about
8300,000,000, —in 1871, two milliards in 1873, and
two milliards in 1873. Interest is only payable on
the last installment, from which the proportion of
the debt appertaining to Alsace and Lorraine, es
timated at half a milliard of thalers, and the cost
of railways in Eastern France is to he deducted.
London, March B.— The French authorities are
endeavoring to make snch arrangements with Prus
sia as to hasten the evaenation of Paris. It is believ
ed that the Hermans will leave this evcnlngor at la
te?!, to-morrow, in consequence of great excitement
in Paris. Crowds of Parisians, observing some Prus
sians in the Courts of Louvre and Place du Car
rousel yesterday, attempted to use force for their
expulsion, but were kept back by a line of troops,
and pieces of cloth were bung over the gate to
hide the Prussians. Conflicts are expected if the
Germans do not soon evacuate the city.

good stories and literary matter of merit. It is
uot surprising that the journal, with snch features,
has achieved in a short time an immense success;
for something of its kind was desired in thousands
of families, and its publishers have filled the de

The Bazar is excellent. Like all the periodicals
which the Harpers publish, it is almost ideally well
edited, and the class of readers for whom it is in
tended—the mothers and daughters in average
families—can not but profit by its good sense and
good taste, which, we have no doubt, are to-day
making very many homes happier than they may

t' ' ~
The following comprise some of tbe unanswer
able arguments, why every Planter should imme
diately apply for a PbUcy of Life Insurance;
1. The changes and fluctuations taking place and
liable to occur In commercial affairs.
2. The 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 t provision for these contin
gencies, which a Lite Insurance Policy aflords to
every family, in a good comn&ny.
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
distress in the event of your misfortune, or your
death.

WHO SHOULD INSURE.
ALL CLASSES. The rich, because they can
easily afford It, and reverses may come, or they
may have large estates, but no ready money to
clear off encumbrances; and the result of nial-ad
mlnlstration may leave bnt little to the family.
THE POOR MAN, because he may never accu
mulate, and because immorality and 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. The institution of slavery
made us independent of this provision. If a man
commenced life with a few slaves, he eonld rea
sonably expect that in a very few years their natu
ral Increase would make his family independent.
But this has been sirept from is. It has been
truthfully said, that bnt few men, after the age of
forty, have laid the foundation of fortunes. How
many there arc who, at that age, and beyond,
have had to begin life anew.
There is no other investment which can be
made by email installments; and the very first
payment made secures the policy as much as the
laet.
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 more
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 an encumbrance which has not been
removed before the death of the owner? How
easily, too, in planting, an acre or two can he 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 Baser it must
necessarily be. This is an error; ns 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 young 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 upon all the most 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.
