ife Insurance-Domestic Trade sc.

MEssRs. ED1roRs:-I have noticed your re-
marks concerning South Carolina Insurance
Company with much qualification. we have 4
need for. such an institution among us, ana
whenever there is domestic wanG which we
are able to supply ourselves every good 3 oouth
Carolinian should favor and encourage the effort
TO supply it.
In manufactures we began with the coarser
cottons and yarns, and because there was nome
demand we succeeded. The extension OF our
spinning to the finer numbers OF yarns to be
sold at the North is less likely to succeed. The
manufacture of paper for newspapers Is success
fuI at Granievile and Greenvilie, and ut Athens
and Columbus in Georgia, because all can be
sold at home In both these articles and in
others, we have double advantage over the
Northern producer. the freight of the raw mate
rial to the North and Of the manufactured pro-
duct back again to the South. But in every
case, where there is 4 want at home OF any pro-
duction sufficiently large to encourage South
ern company, We ought to have such one esta-
blished among US.
In regard to Life Insurance the number of
South Carolinians already insured in the North
is enough 10 support company at the South;
Not less than sixty persons at Columbia and
forlv at Camden, have taken out policies in for
eion companies. In Charleston the number is
large and in other parts of the States few can
be found.
But The number who ought to insure their
lives is far greater than the number who have
done so already Our people are extravagant
and free in their expenditures Hundreds OF
m persons might be readily found in Charleston
alone. who earn a handsome income but spend
il all as soon MS it is received. The physicians
and LAWYERS whu are not yet in large practice,
ars numerous. The teachers and clergymen
who lay by nothing, are to be found IN every
District of the State. The clerks and shopkeeP-
ers who are dependent on their salaries for the
support of their families may be counted in
large numbers in Charleston. The merchants
who have not accumulated fortune, and who
have all Mt risk in business whose final result
thew cannot foresee, may be seen on every square
and in all our streets. All these and many
other persons. if their attention was called to
Life Insurance, if they were made to understand
and appreciate it, if they were acquainted with
