EVILS OF NOT INSURING.

The poverty and suffering of widows and orphan
with cold and cheerless prospects, worn with excess
slve toll and scanty subsistence and corrodng any,
lety, are speaking commentary upon the evils of
husbands neglectng this benefcent provision How
many families have been thrown into state of ab
soute want by the ulpable neglect of husband mr.
father to fulfil to his family-which he is bound bv
sacred obligations to protect, honor, cherish, and
provide tor-the important duty of Insnring his
Life for their benefit? Few homes are free from
encumbrance by mortgage otherwise, and in very
many cases, on the decease of the husband and fa
ther, the wife and children who had confded in him
to shield them from poverty, forced from their
long cherished homes, which they in their younger
days helped to adorn with all that the heart could
desire. Could that departed husband ard father look
back upon the suffering condition of his family
would he not admonish husbands and fathers, one
and all, to guard against similar calamity to their
own families by Life Assurance?
Men, when the subject of Life Assurance is men.
toned to them, are too apt to say it is too heavy
tax and yet, if they would reflect for a moment it
IN reality Is tax, but savings bank for the bene
fit of their wives and children.
An insurance on the life of a man for the benefit
OF his wife or children, is free from attachment by
creditors; but is paid directly to his wife and child
rem sixty days after the death of the husband.

There is in these and other modifi-

There is in these and other modifi-
cations suggested in the existing law,
n want of impartiality, which, in the
judgement of your Committee, is cal
culated to provoke hostility at the
South, and to excite in all honest
minds at the North the hope that
such purpose will not prevail. It
is not as though the people of the
South were prepared to enter into
competition with the manufacturers
of the North for the benefits to be
conferred through the payment cs the
proposed bounty on cotton goods ex
ported. They are not, and cannot
be, for years to come, and the impo-
sition of discriminating tax which
tends to make the rich of the North
richer, and the poor of the South
poorer, operates rs discouragement
to those who, with heavy hearts but
honest endeavors, strive to regain
their lost footing.
Your committee believe that it will
be wiser and better to lift up those
who are now cast down, by just and
generous legislation to inspire the
Southern people with hope of better
days, rather than by All opposite
course to prolong the era of political
and commercial distrust
If it is true, that when zone mem
ber suffers, all the members suffer
with it, your committee would urge
more moderate tax than that now
proposed not in the interest Of the
South alone, but for the common
good of all the States in the Union.
