lssuRAHcE.--Every wise man insures
his property against losses BY fire, and it
is Of the highest importance that BE- in.
sures in good sound company. Read
the statement OF the Farmers aud Mer-
chants Insurance Company This com
pany have now acquired bona ,iie capi-
tai Of over $500 900, which is daily in.
creasing, and is secured by lien on real
estate worth over two millions Of dollars
This company is now doing safe and
large business, having issued over sixteen
hundred policies during the pas, thre,
months. The losses by this COMPANY
have all been promptly adjusted to the
satisfaction of the owners long before ma
turity. This company is organized on :
mutual syssem, and, therefore, every per
son that insures becomes himself an in
surer, and consequently draws his share
Of the profits or dividends.

The Case Plainly Stated by Lifs-Lsng
Democrat.

The following is an editorial Of the
Philadelphia Ledger and Transeript of
the 18th inst, an out and out Democratic
sheet of that city:
Sand what is all this rio.ing about p
The draft--and for the alleged reason that
the law Of congress authorizing il favors
one class who are able 10 buy their sx.
emption TO the prejudice Of those supp.s.
ed to be unable to raise the req uisite
$500. BY the operation of tho Law, il is
argacd that tho army will necessarily b.
composed of those least able to leave thsir
families to join i,s ranks. Now this il
not the purpose or effect of the $500 ex.
emption. Directly the reverse is true. -
Had there been no reasonable sum fixed
for exemption, the cost OF a three years
substitute would run up, as it did . year
ago, from five hundred TO fifteen hundred
dollars sum quite beyond the power Of
o very large portion of the community TO
command. None but the exclusive few
could have commanded Substitutes ut such
figures. Instead of the present $500 ex-
emp.ion working oppressively on the la
boring classes, it was especially designed
for their protection, and actually does put
them rs nearly on footing with the most
favored az 10 pracsieabls. The object OF
the draft is men, not money and, in order
to soften the rigors of Conscriptiou, Con.
gress has said that any drafted man may
get substitute on the best terms he can,
but he shall not be forced to pay more
than three hundred dollars Thus Ia the
man OF small means protected from the
competition of those of greater means,
who could. but for the $500 limit, outbid
him in the purchase of substitute. Nc
coDscription law can ever be popular, be.
csuse it is necessarily more Of less arbitra
Try; but the present law is probably q,
lsnient and equitable as any such law car
be. and is certainly not obnoxious to tn,
censure raised against it, as favoring one
class to the prejudice of another With
a proper dissemination of the truth of this
matter, and the observance OF a liberal pa
triotic spirit by those who remain at home
IN making ample provision for the car,
and comfort of dependent families, who's,
head msy be called to take the hazard,
and hardships of battlefield, bette
understanding must soon be reached, ant
the law allowed to take its course unob
structed. to the great Strengthening of tn,
army. the speedy resuscltation of conf
dence. and the eventual revival of all bus
iness."

The Boston Post, the leading Demo
era, paper of New England, holds the
following noble language in reference to
the draft and the duties of the public with
reference;
Where conscription is SO general
and extensive as this, there is no reproach b
in being conscript There is positive
reproaeh 10 seeing hale, hearty young
man. willing 10 confess that he has not
spirit enough to serve under the national
banner. II Is a burning shame to hear
such one boast that he canno. be made
10 go, In ali old man broken In health
and disposition it ID excusable TO want
courage: bat the martial spiri, becomes
the young and middle aged. 1t is wise
in all who have been lawfully drafted 10
assume the virtue of martial pluck If they
have it or not
A kind encouraging word from Others
may now be Of great service. Employers,
instead Of encouraging their subordnates
TO seek out loop-holes of release, should
encourage them to their military duty
and see that their places are kept open
FOR them. An indiscreet loan Of $500

Whereas, it is provided by an act of

vide for the public defenses," approved on
.he 10th day of April 1862, and by an
other act OF Congress, approved on the
eth September, 1859, entitled "An act
to amend an act entitled an act to provide
further for the public Defense" approved
10th April. 1862, that the President be
authorized to call out and place ia the

years, at the time the call may be made,
and Who are no, Mt such time legally .x-
empted from military service, or such
part thereof - in his judgement may
be necessary to the public defense.
And whereas, in my judgement, the
necessities of the public defense require
that every man capable of bearing arms,
between the ag,s aforesaid, should be now
called out to do his duty in the defense oi
his country, and in driving back the in
vaders now within the limits Of the Con-
fsderacy
Now, therefore, l. Jefferson Davis

States between the ages Of eighteen and
forty-6ve years, not legally exempted
from military service; and do hereby
order and direct that all persons subject
to this call and not nov in the military
service, do, upon being enrolled, forthwith
repair to tho conscript camps established
in the respective States OF which they
may be residents, under pain OF being
held and punished as deserters in the
event Of their failure to obey this call. ii
