New York, October 2l.-The steam

given to the foreign sonsuls to leave
the town within six days, but it is un-

notice and remained. Salnave demanded
the surrender of the place or he would
burn it, and prepared to attack by land
and sea. The water supply has been cut
of, and the female portion of the inhab'

the commander, would not surrender.

A Doubtful storY-Bad Policy.

According to the New York Herald
a gentleman from Alabama, new in
Washington city, states that great mum.
beers of the more respectable people in
Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana, and
he doubts not in the other Southern
States, have long had under considera-
ton, and have made preparations for
moving, some into California, some to
the Northern States, and others to the
Territories, in the event of Grants cleo
ton. He says that they are fully con-
vinced that if the Republicans are sue
.cessful it will be utterly impossible for
them to live in tho States where they now
reside.
We have heard limitations before of
similar purpose entertained in another
important State of the South; but it is
not at all likely that such an idea is gen.
orally entertained. There has been al
ready considerable emigration from
some Southern localities, where the
white population is small and defense
Less, to the northern tier of Southern
States, and even to the North and West.
The selling out of property and removal
TO a great distance are not often accom-
plshed in the best Of times without sac
riice, but at the present prices Of prop
erty in the South, to sell out is very
near TO giving away. When to this
is added the surrender Of old as-
sociations, and the passing Of the
remainder Of life 10 exile from
the scenes and friends Of early years, it
must be confessed that it may well be a
question with the Southern land owners
whether it is not "betser TO bear the ills
they have than to ay to others that they
know not Of" by emigration, especially
TO q distant region like California, where,
as appears from a late number Of the
leading periodical of that State, the pro-
fessions are all overcrowded, and there Is
no prospect Of any man improving his
condition unless be either has capital, or
by his labor in mechanical and agricul-
tural employments can add 70 the pre-
ductiye wealth of the State. Where there
is capital or labor, il the object is TO the
Southern States, emigrants will ind all
in MARYLAND that they con gain BY re-
moval elsewhere. Whilst no one can re-
fuse 10 sympathize with the apprehen-
sions which are said to be prompting
some persons in the South 70 think Of
emigration, It is probable that those who
viii most profit BY such movement will
be the shrewd,and unscrupulous adven-
turers whose vocation 10 has become TO
speculate upon the miseries and neeessi
ties Of The Southern people. leo much
caution cannot be exercised in such q
step as this, so comparatively easy, per
haps to take, but 80 difficult, IT not I'M
possible, 10 retrace-
That The Southern States, the garden
spot Of this country, will be permanently
abandoned By the white race, especially
in view Of the overwhelming river oil
emigration from the old world, is too in
probable an idea 10 be seriously dis

In the Supreme Court yesterday, Judge
McCann rendered highly important
opinion upon the application of James
Stewart, an ex-seaman Of the United
States, to be admitted as citizen. Judge
McCann holds that the act Of Congress
does not in terms extend any such privi-
lege to honorably discharged seamen, but
only to such as have served in and been
honorably discharged from armies of
the United States. The Court will put a
liberal construction upon the act, ao-

as well as soldiers to naturalization.

MARYLAND
LIFE INSURANCE
COMPANY.

lTNHE progress of Life Insurance in the
i United States proves this great CROWN
| ing triumph of modern science and phllan-
tbropby to be one of the marvellous features
of our social economy.
The wisdom of all ages has devised nothing
that con- pares with it. 1t is so manifestly
good that it is difficult to see how an iDtelli-
gent man, with proper concern for the COM
fort and protection of his family, can fail to
avail himself of its benefits.
Life Insurance leaves ready money to settle
estates to advantage. 1t will prevent a sac
rifice of property If man die in debt. 1t is
subject to no tax during life. nor Orphans
Court expenses after death. 1t is exempt by
law from debt. 1t is rapidly becoming rule
that all men of just attributes insure. -
Our Maryland Company commends itself
to the confidence and patronage of our people
in all parts of the State. It's directors are
men of known integrity and ability, to whom
the public may look with confidence for a Just
and careful supervision Of its affairs. 1t must
be clear to every thinking mind that, if we
would secure the largest prosperity to our
State and people Individually, we must build
up our institutions and keep our capital at
home.
Had the five million dollars sent out of the
State annually for insurance been invested
at home, it would have told favorably upon
our own wealth and commerce. This is en-
phatical|y our company-gotten up by our
best merchants to afford the opportunity for
all to insure without sending the money out
Of our own State. The affairs of the compas
ny are managed with economy. For two
years and a-half the President received No
compensation for his services. ~
Such has been our marked success that we
were able after the second year to declare and
pay in cash as large dividend as the oldest
and largest company in the United States
The Company feel greatly encouraged by the
patronage and cooperation they have receiv-
ed, and solicits a. continuance of the same.
Self-respect, State pride and interest, combine
to make this the company for us.
Now, dear sirs, in view of all the advanta-
yes of Life Insurance as an understandable
uncertainty of life-the strong claims Of wife
and children npon husband and father-is it
not the moral duty of every man to put
something in a form that will prevent want
and distress, or trouble on the part of those he
loves?
By all means insure, and do it at once in
the Maryland Company. The Officers of this
Company are:
GEO. P. THOMAS, President.
A. X. FORD, Secretary.
