zens that the Southern Mutual Insurance Com
pany,' Of Athens, Ga, are still taking risks and
ansuring against loss by fire Of stocks Of ner-
chandse, houses, furniture, cotton, vessels IN
port, &C., &C. This is no new company with q
fictitious capital, but old established one, hav-
ing been in operation since 1s47. Previous to the
war they had an agency in this city, and did
Large business, paying all their losses punctually
which TACT can be certified to by number Of our
most respectable merchants. They stand now as
well as they did then; having lost by the war (by
1udicious management only fourteen Thousand
dollars in Confederate securities and currency
The advantage gained by insuring in this compa-
ny is that, being mutual one, all yearly policy
holders participate in the profits, and are entitled
to vote in its direction, without any liability what
ever. This alone is worthy Of consideration. Last
year they declared dividend to poicy-holders Of
forty per cent, returning to them nearly one-haf
their premium. Mr.. J. L. HONOUR, at No. s Broad
street, is their agent and is ready to redeem any
outstanding dividend scrip Of the company in pay
ment of premiums. word to the wise is sufi-
caent Remember, the place is No. 8 Broad street.
Persons holding the dividend scrip have insured
IN this company without costing them one cent. n

to send come OF the Police sergeants On tour Of
inspection throughout the city. These officers
