The First Fruit.

The telegraph reported from Nashville,
Tenn, on Monday last, that nearly one
hundred negroes had come into that place
from the neighborhood of Rutherford
county, and reported that they had been
driven away from home by lawless white
men. These negroes have been working
on shares with planters, and they as well
as the planters will lose heavily if they are
not protected in securing the crop.
A well-known planter from that neigh
borhood, who makes about 800 bales of cot
ton, has been threatened by the Regulators,
and was there to see what could be done to
secure himself and the negroes in his i'm
ploy from violence. Bands of lawless white
men are operating also in Summer county,
visiting negro cabins, taking the occupants
and whipping them. The men engaged in
this business are wholly irresponsible, will
not work themselves, and desire to prevent
others from enjoying the fruits of their
labor.
There are some of the legitimate fruits of
the Conservative success in that State,
and it is so identical with the old rebel
democratic fruit of the war, that we are
unable to discriminate between them. The
tree shall be known by it's fruit the scrip
lures declare.

The Address.

The worthy and genial President of the
Maryland Editorial Association, Geo. w.
Wilson, Esq, editor of the Marlborough
Gazette, publishes in the Gazette of the 25th
ult., the Address prepared for delivery be-
fore the Association of Editors on their
late excursion to Winchester and Jordan S
Springs; but the delivery of which was de-
ferred during the excursion, and the au-
thor's request granted to publish it. A
large portion of the Address is made up of
a recurrence to, and an unpleasant-to the
author-recital of the summary proceed
ings practiced toward publishers of news
armies, insisted on melting their readers
against the cause of the government,
abusing the Union soldiers individually and
collectively, and advocating the cause of
the rebels. 1t is contrary to all reason to
expect that person who was as capable
as an editor of newspaper, of doing SO
much mischief to the army he opposed
and abused, should have been regarded as
sacred in his person and property, by that
army. In this respect both parties acted
alike, except that the rebels were much
more severe in their treatment to editors
who exposed the Union cause in their
midst Individual officers may, and doubt
less often did, treat with unnecessary Sc

enemy in your rear-and who is more dan
gerous than newspaper man armed with
his types? In this part of his address, oul
worthy President is very unhappy, we con-
slider, but i'll other parts, the Address is
well conceived and very appropriate to the
occasion.
If our most estimable President will al
low his philosophic mind free control, he
will by the next annual excursion, have
arrived at the conclusion, that the Union
armies acted wisely in suppressing the
newspapers in Maryland which advocated

afterwards waged war upon the govern.

instituted for the suppression of the rebel.

Fire luSurance.-A PROSPEROUS CON-
rANY.-In looking over some policies is
sued by the Mutual Fire Insurance Compa-
ny of York, Pa, recently, we were forcibly
struck with the large number of Policies is
sued by that company.
Policy dated April Goth, 80, is num-
beled 3s,S64, and another Policy bearing
date May 3, 80, was numbered 80, OS2, and
one issued May 25th No 80, 7S5, showing
an issue of 703 Policies i'll 90 days. Anoth-
or Policy bearing date May 20, is No. 80
$40. \ later issue, bearing date July 10,
numbers 1896, showing the immense
business transacted by the Company in less
than tea and Aaif months, i'll the present
year, to amount to the issue of ., 102 Poll
ccs.
The rates of the Company are reasonably
low, and its business transacted promptly,
and in manner to insure satisfaction to its
thou andS of members.
Applications for insurance in the Compa-
ny received at this Office, and the Policies
delivered to applicants without delay.

PLAIN CLoTHEs-You mustn't imagine
that because they make fashionable clothes
at Oak Hall and suit the veriest "dandy :"
with the style and finish of their clothing,
they do not have anything plain and gen
teel for elderly persons and men of palmer
taste. The truth is just the reverse Wan
amaker & Brown give special attention
to comfort in making up their stock and
you can get there a coat with big collar,
or pair of broad-fall pantaloons or any
thing else you prefer just as well as tie
styles and patterns that are more fashiona-
bly, worn.

In common with the public generally,
we are much pleased at the wonderful sue
cess of the National Life Insurance Com
pany, of the United States of America. 1t
has issued 1910 policies in the very first
year of its operations. When the days and
months of prepatory labor are considered,
this number may be taken as pledge of
not less than ten or twelve thousand for the
second year.
The Company asked and received the I'M
qualified endorsement of the public in the
very first year of its organization; nor are
we in the least surprised at this, for the
plan of the Company meets a popular want.
Heretofore, if 4 poor man wanted to get
his life insured for the benefit of his family,
he must needs go into the business of in
surfing others; he must for himself, his
heirs, executors, administrators and assigns
become an associate member of a mutual
company, with all the liabilities thereto
attaching. but, with no expectation of
knowing even when and where there would
be single meeting of the Company
There was no propriety in this, any more
than there would be on the part of cloth
ing dealer, who should require every GUS
toner to go into co-partnership with him
before he would sell him pair of panta-
looms. If all clothiers should require this,
the public would have to submit to the CO.
partnership for a season, but whenever
dealers established themselves who did not
impose such obligations, with reference
alike to their past business and their future
they would certainly secure the patronage
of the public. The people have had their
Protective Unions and Mutual Fire Insur-
anee Companies; these are not so popular
as they once We're; indeed have almost all
passed away. We predict for the National
Life Insurance Company, of the United
States of America, successful and brilliant
future.
