Southern Fire Insurance Co.,
OF

No man who owns a house, or merchan-
disc, should 60 to sleep without a policy in
a good Company, to save him from power
ty in case of a fire sweeping away what he
possesses. Mr.. w. I. Wood. Travelling
Agent for the above Company, will be in
Winchester for a week or two, and in addi-
ton to the many responsible references he
can give, and the large amount of business
his Company has already done in this
community, we car confidently add orr
own testimony as to the solvency Of the
Company. Mr.. Wood will issue policies on
the most reasonable terms. 1t Is certainly
unnecessary to argue the necessity and
good sense of being insured. No good bus
mess man at this day neglects such a pro-
vision against that common enemy that
comes like a thief in night time.

BuIGLARs.-We had come almost I
the conclusion that since the depart
ure of Browulow's Militia last year.
the town of Winchester was free from
ourylsrious persons. But the attempt
\ few nights since, to get into the mouse
OF Messrs, Templeton &C.,, has dispel
led our good opinions, The rascals
got iuto the cellar. and back or shed
room of the building, and nearly effect
ed IN entrance into the front room
where the valuables are kept. But II
seems that they ruined their augur'
while endeavoring to get door open
by coming in contact with the iron
hinges, and gave up in despair. 1t ap'
pears as if they were novices in the
work of burglary, but a little practice
will soon make them perfect. We eau
ton our people to be careful and sc
cure their valuables with burglar proc
caution and vigilance.

A cynical journalist says the reason
so many marriages occur Immediately
after a war is that bachelors become so
accustomed to strife that they learn to
like it, and after the return OF peace
they enlist in matrimony as the next
thing to war. And why not, we would
ask2 They fly to arms in both instan
ces, and go, generally, into the infant

A CITIZEN GoNE.-We regret that
our town loses the citizenship of Capt.
John Frizzell, who goes to Nashville to
reside. We have read Of an extraor-
binary kind of compliment paid by the
Athenians to such citizens as had done
them great services. For fear the people
might show too much gratitude, to the
prejudice of liberty, they would ban
ish such noble citizens for ten years
On some particular day each citizen
gave in the name Of a person who he
desired should be sent into retirement
Six thousand of these votes carried
the point and he who had thus a le-
gal number of votes, was obliged to
quit Athens within ten days. The most
disintercsted patriot, and most success
full commander, received this public &C,
acknowledgement Of their services. We
are sure that II SUCH q law were III l"Ict
here, Capt. F. would be one of the ban
ishcd, but, as it is, a corresponding
vote would be given for him to remain
with us, and benefit society, and orna
ment it, as in the days he has already
spent so profitably. We wish him 0
long and prosperous life and congratu'
late the Rock City upon his acqulsi-
ton. 1t is a little remarkable that
most of our citizens who make cAarac'
ter and aiix themselves to public ad
miration and good will, whether in TIM
pulpit, at the bar,-in agriculture, me
chanics, or manufactures, leave us whel
most we desire them to remain. Blu
we have many yet.
