EVILS OF NOT INSURING.

The poverty and suffering of widows and orphan
with cold and cheeress prospects, with excess
sve toll and scanty subsistence and cOrroding anx
iety, are a speaking commentary upon the evils Of
husbands neglecting this benefcent provision. How
many families have been thrown into a state of ab-
soute want by the culpable neglect of husband or
father to fulfil to his family-which he is bound by
sacred obligations to protect, honor, cherish, and
provide for-the important duty of Insuring 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 IA
ther, the wife and children who had confded in him
TO shield them from poverty, are 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 10 guard against a similar calamity to their
own families by Life Assurance
Men, when the subject of Life Assurance is men,
toned to them, apt to say it is too heavy
tax; aud yet, if they would reflect for a moment it
an reality is tax but a savings bank for the beRe-
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.

The Test Oath.

The test oath passed by the Congress du-
ring the rebellion is too stringent, and ought !
to be modified in such a way as that it can
be taken by the great body of the true Union
men of the South. As it exists now, it not
only excludes from office original secession
lists and latter-day war men, who are worse,
if possible, than the former, but it keeps un-
der the ban as true Union men as are to be
found anywhere. Meanwhile it. is the duty
of every loyal citizen to respect this oath as
the law of the land, and to conform to it as
far as possible The Southern States, like
the prodigal son, went out from the family
five years ago, in pursuit Of imaginary indie
pendence; and now, having concluded to re-
turn, they are in no condition to demand
pledges orguarantees but must put up with
such changes as have taken place in the fam
ily during their absence. .a e,5t5,rrt qF ..

latter-day war man would have presumed to
offer himself in this State even for the Office
of constable. As soon as such as these JeE
that their cause had failed, and when the
awful nature of their sin was 'th brought
home to them by the triumphant tread OF
devastating Union armies, they huumbYled " tYts
themselves in the dust, were among the first
to take the amnesty oath, and were seen run
ming in all directions to "straitest sect"
Union men, begging them to protect them. them
from the consequences of their stltf-necked-
ness, their folly, and their crime. But the
viper that was picked up frozen, from the
hedgerow, was no sooner warmed into
life by the generous treatment it received,
than it began to dart iout its tongue and to
try its fangs on its deliyerers and protectors!
It has been fashionable for several months i IS

unsubdued, and latter-day war men, who

Cotton.

COstOQs KS. et
The following table shows the receipts of
cotton at Liverpool for the years of 1854 and
1866, together with the rapid increase in its
production in the East Indies and South
America. M
The East Indies have shipped to England
nearly three bales to our one for the lastyea,,
and for the year preceding, over five bales 10
our one Such a gratifying exhibit of tie
increased production Of cotton in the Eaa,
together with the fact that when the w;r
broke out she had on hand three years sup
ply, was sufficient to make England pas
sive spectator of the great Rebellion. Tie
government Of that country could well afoh
tolsupport the few employees of cotton fac
tories, temporarily stopped by cotton fam
inc during our war, when her people in the
colonies were growing rich and powerful, and
building the substantial foundations of com
mercial Independence. England was amply
repaid for the support of the above mention
ed employees, by the rapid expansion Of cot
ton growing in the East; indeed, it looks as
if where she thus expended a shilling, apound
was returned.
