SIR--Wo trust that, under the peculiar

on the part Of the people, to know the views
and candid opinions OF those in whom they
have long conlided. Identified, as you are,
with every interest of Georgia having been
the recipient Of the confidence and suffrage
of our people, in o degree, and to an extent
unparalleled in the history of our State !
and experienced in, and informed upon, all
governmental matters affecting the vital in
terests Of all classes of our people, II is but
natural, that in our present distressed con-
dition, we should turn TO You as o. sentinel
upon the watch tower. and ask you, What
OF the night" 7f3ni W..
In addition TO tho above considerations,
which would Of themselves be ample apol-
ogy for thus calling upon you, We have an
increased desre to know your honest and
candid convictions, from the fact Of you're
cent s0iourn in Washington City, where,
from your position, as o statesman and your
representative character you doubtless en-
ioyed unusual facilities for learning our ex-,
act condition as to the present, and the prob
abilities as to the future. Therefore, we
sincerely and earnestly call upon you, as we
believe, for the good Of our State, and every
interest of the great masses Of our people, to
present to us fully, freely, and frankly your
views upon the condition of the country
and what course in your Judgment, should
be pursued by the people Of Georgia In the
present crisis
Hoping that you will accede to our re-
quest with that frankness and candor which
has ever characterized your action as pub
lie man, we have the honor to be. most re-

We need capital and labor. Neither will
come till our difficulties are settled, and our
political status defined Every Northern
man or foreigner who brings physical
strength or capital into Georgia, adds to her
wealth, and should be regarded as friend,
and treated as such. In our depressed con-
dition, if men who are void of the better
feelings of our nature come among us to in
suit us by insolence, let us refuse to handy
words with them. Compared with the great
mass of Northern people, these characters
are few, and must soon give place TO better
men. A magnanimous man never reioiccs
over the sufferings of a fallen adversary
Time will heal most of our wounds, and we,
who in war were enemies, will soon be in
peace, friends The sooner this is the case,
the better for the whole country. In view
of these considerations, think ft best that
we, as the conquered, yield the points IN
the controversy at once.

er it the duty Of the Governor OF Georgia to

three quarters of the loss total or partial
and discussed the propriety of limiting
the amount to be insured to one half or
three fourths of the value, as calculated
to cure the evil Of which they complained.
They also canvassed the present system
and extent Of compensation to agents, as
q fruitful source of over insurance, by rea-
son of the strong pecuniary inducement
to agents to exceed the limits of prudence
in granting orseeking insurance on pro-
perty already over insured. The over
quick and hasty adjustment and payment
of losses was set forth as a powerful in
centive before the positively dishonest or
those of easy virtue or in embarrassed
circumstances to realize by a ready sale
to underwriters, through the medium of
fire and an insurance contract. Mention
was also made Of the loose and dangerous
practice Of permitting other insurance
without notice, as calculated to increase
the evil Of over insurance and divest the
underwriters Of all control or knowledge
of the extent of the danger and hazard
thus evoked. The ungenerous and reckless
competition engendered by the desire for
o large and extended business, oftentlmes
in the hands of the needy and adventu-
rous, was instanced as the certain precur-
sor of disaster and ruin. While Ignorance
in some, disregard of common prudence
in others, and neglect of the principles
underlying oil sound underwriting in
many, have been the ostensible cause Of
disaster to no small number of Companies,
all have suffered, and that severely from
the causes above named. Even the best
and most experienced have been involved
10 a greater or less extent in the evils
common to all, until it has become a mat
ter of most serious import how these evils
are to be corrected and the business re-
stored to its former condition Of unifor-
nifty and safety. No doubt incendiarism
has been q fearful and fruitful source of
loss, and is to a certain extent beyond re-
medy, at least on the part Of the insurers.
Keen scrutiny into the character Of the
losses and the origin of the fire may and
will do much to mitigate the evil, especl-
ally when coupled with q liberal reward
for the arrest and conviction of the incen-
diary. The mode adopted in some cOun-
tries of advertising by card a large eward
in everu case for the conviction of the in
cendiary, or a smaller one for a satisfac-
tory explanation Of the fire, may result in

of persons resident in the West Indies,
presents advantages such as no other AS

Its career, during a period of 81 years,

lives of persons residing in this part OF

almost as valuable as those inhabiting

such excessive Premiums as are charged
by every other Company.
