OF persons resident in the West Indies,
presents advantages such as no other AS
surance Company, %labouring in the same
field, can offer. Its scale. of Premiums,
although considerably lower than that OF
any other Company, has nevertheless been
found quite adequate TO provide for the

which Reversionary Bonuses, averaging

Its career, during a period of 81 years,
has clearly demonstrated the fact that the
lives of persons residing in this part Of
the world, are, when carefully selected,
almost as valuable as those inhabiting
Europe, and that they do not demand
such excessive Premiums as are charged
by every other Company.

About the Removal OF
the County Seat.

MR.. EDITOR: "YoUNa AMERICA
has for some time been silent upon thu
question of removal of the county sea-
| from MoArthut to Zaleski, for various
reasons, the principal reason being tina
Of ill health, but becoming somewhat
animated upon hearing the subject men
toned, have concluded to venture few
remarks through my son, aid ask indul'
gence on the part of the public, for any
error that be may make, in expressing
my thoughts. First, permit me to say tt
the citizens of Macarthur, that you
county seal will be removed to zaleski
in spite of all you can do, ifthe arrange
ments be perfected, that are now on foot
and are matters Of general talk, anC
therefore no longer remain q secret
The arrangements now on foot are these
lst. Eagle Township wishes to be at
tached to ROes county, and for the put'
pose of accomplishing this, will vo'e tr
the removal of the county seat to AaE
leski.
End. Lee Township in Athens counI
ty, wishes to be attached to ViDtOn.-
But, Athens cOuhty, being already az
small as the constitutional proVisionl
will permit, and thus requiring another
Township to be attached to Athens
county-aud there being tDo objects to
be accomplished in this movo-and the
psrties concerned in the matter, have
consented to have Barlow in Washing
ton county, attached to Athens, thus
leaving Athens with her political major
itv the same as before. This matter be-
ing accomplished, leaves Ross with o
small increased Democratic majority
Lee Township attached to Viuton, makes
Vinton Republican by majority of TWO
hundred and fifty or more, and changes
the centre Of the county to ZalsSki, OF
beyond.
Thus Zaleski has far superior claim
for the removal of the county seat, for
the reason that the point much
is central, and the business done, being
greater than that OF McArthur.-
This matter being accomplished, gives
Zaleski the county. seat, aud the Repub'
liCan party the power in Vinton county
1t is suggestion worthy Of the con-
slderatlon Of Macarthur folks, that they
begin to vork, and WORK WORK
DAY AND NIGHT, IN THOUGHT, ACTION
AND DEED. WHY? Because your in.
terest in property is at stake. AS soon
as the county seat is removed from your
town, your trade diminiShes; your prop
erty decreases in value, and your prop
erty, aOw rented, will become deserted,
and will stand, as the deserted ruibs Of
OLD HERcULANEUM, to be remembered
by the past.
I only make mention of this matter at
present for the purpose of learning the
sentiment of tho public generally and
if, upon satisfactory proof being furn-
ished that the citizens, being owners Of
property in McArthug, are willing to
trade the county seat for political power,
then, in that case, you may be assured
that you will hear from nee again.

BENEATH the heading-"Strike, but

He says he ''arriVed at the age oftwenty-

first vote in April, 1840, and has voted at
every election, from President down to
School Director, ssinco. that time. He
then gives the names of those whom he
voted for for President-and of course
saying that he:voted in 1864 for Linz

religious duty and always votes to effect
some purpose" lie neglected to say
that he votedt for Andrew johnson, in
1864, but he did vote for him when he
voted for Lincoln. Of course he "res

| MANY Of our readers do not understand
the nature of the Amendment to the COnsti-
tuition" Of the State of Ohio, which the Rad
ical Legislature passed on the 9Th Of thit
month, and of which we spoke last week.
Here is Section |, of Article V, Of the Con-
stitution-the Section containing the word
WHITE-which Section the Negro Suffrage
Radicals want stricken out because they are
opposed to the Constitution as it is;
CONSTITUTION OF OHIO, ART. 8, SEC / AsITIs.I
Every white uale citizen of the United
States, of the age Of twenty-one years, who
shall have been resident of the State one
year next proceeding the election, and of the
county, township, or ward in which he re-
sides such time as may be provided by law,
shall have the qualifications OF an elector,
and be entitled to vote at all elections.
It's that word WHITE that snnOys the
Radical fanatics.
Now, reader, hero is the substitute they
want you to go to the polls Rext October
and vote for
SUBSTITUTE.
Every male citizen of the United States, Of
the age of twenty one years, who shall have
been a resident of the State one year
next preceding the election, and Of the
county, township, or ward in which
he resides, such time as may be pro-
vided by law, except such persons as have
borne arms in support Of any insurrection or
rebellion against the government Of the Uni.
ted States, or have fed from their places Of
residenceto avoid being drafted into the mill
itary service thereof or have deserted the
military OF naval service Of said government
in time of war; and have not subsequently
been honorably discharged from the same
shall have the qualifications Of an elector
and be entitled to vote at oil elections.
Do you see how nicely they have drawn
up that substituted word WHITE being
omitted. They want the Constitution to
read-"Every male citizen Of the United
States" instead Of avery WHITE male
citizen, which will of course, if not re-
jected, enfrahchise any Niger "whO shall
" have been resident of the State one year
next preceding the election"
The reader will also observe that they are
not satisfied with enfranchising thousands Of
negroes who may come into this State "to
vote for de Union" bu! they must disfran.
chise white men, who, they fear, will ySts
against them.
