Mr.. GREES:-Since the adjournment oftho
Charleston Convention the National De-
mocracy in the Southeast have been most
wonderfully exercised. l came very near
wiring erorcised; but the attempted exor-
cism was an act of the Convention itself.
That they did not effect complete purie-
cation is palpable 10 ali; and whether they
will ever succeed IN their sd'urations, is q
matter of profound speculation among the
political savans of the party. Union nsa
are now more than ever convinced Of the
fact that time and plenty Of rope will hang
the "great harmonious as high and as ef.
iectualy as the Virginiaps hung John
Brown.
As an Indication of The early disruption

WHAT IS LIFE ISsURANcE?-1. It IS Inc ex

independence, domestic happiness TO the widow
and orphan. 3. Is more effcacious IN its opera
tIons as regdTcs the moral and domestic comfort
of the people, and IN its tendency 10 reduce taxa
ton, by its re ucon of psnperism, and possibly
OF crime, than the legislation of our wses; states
men; and, if universally adopted, would be na-
tionaI blessing. 4. 1t affords persons OF every
class, and in every station of life, the means 10
avoid much future misery 10 their families, and 10
render them independent of public or private
charity.
While il is the manifest and imperative duty OF
every parent, curing his lifetime, 10 embrace all
honorable means Of supporting and advancing the
interest of his offspring, SO il is equally his duty
10 avoid leaving them at his death 10 grope their
way in helpless poverty through an uncharitable
world; and equally apparent is the duty of every
husband TO provide, in case Of his death, for the
surviving widow. To effect all which Life Insu-
rance Companies have been formed, which enable
every husband and parent, by the payment OF a
small sum, either nnually or quarterly, 10 pro-
