ANCE COMPANY, ATLANTA DEPARTMENT.
To THE PEOPLE OF SOUTH CAROLINA:
The above Company was organized In 1866, In
consequence OF the wholesale forfeiture OF South
ern policies by Northern companies The un-
paralleled success OF the enterprise has forced
several OF these companies to restore their South
ern policies, from the fact that they could not
operate in our midst without the appearance Of
noues.y.
We keep all our meney at home to build nm
our Impoverished country-every dollar OF pre-
MUM being safely invested in the State from
whlch IL Is derived. The institution Is purely
Southern, and hence should appeal with great
| force to the patriotism and sympathy OF eyery
Southern heart.
Ills not our purpose to make war OH other
companies, but TO exhibit the special advantages
onered by this purely Southern Company-found-
ed on patriotism anu solid weaIth Its ratio OF
assets to Habilltlcs-the true test OF a company,s
strengths second to none on this continent.
being nearly $500 to 800.
Whenever and wherever we have presented the
| claims OF this Company, 1t has not only enlisted
| the sympathIes Of our people, but has also secur-
| cd their hearty cooperation. We have secured
| 600 policies In South Carolina since the 10th Of
February. We number among our Directors

You've MAN You ARE WANTED.-A
woman wants you. Don't forget her.
No matter if you are poor. Don't wait
to be rich; if you do, ten to one, you
never will be, if you are fit TO be mar
ried. Marry while you are young, and
struggle up together. But mark, young
man, the woman don't want you if she
is TO divide her affections with cigar,
spittoon, or whisky jug. Neither does
she want you if you don't take care of
her and the" little afterthoughts, which
are pretty sure to follow. Neither does
she want you simply because you are
man, the definition of which is too apt
to bean animal that wears bifuricated
garments on his lower limbs, quarter
section of stove pipe on his head, swears
like pirate, and is given TO filthy prac-
tees generally. She wants you for a
companion, helpmate; she wants you
to have learned to regulate your appe.
tites and passions; in short the image of
God, not in the likeness of beast. II
you are strong in good purpose, firm
in resistance to evil, pure in thought and
action as you require her to be, and
without which inward purity neither of
you are fit for husband and wife; if you
love virtue and abhor vice. if you are
gcntlemanIy, forbearing and kind, aud
not loud talking, exciting and brutal,
young man, that woman wants you; that
modest, fair, cheerful, bright-looking,
frank-spoken woman, we mean, who fills
your idea of mai'len and wife. 1t is
she that wants you-marry her when
YOU like. whether she is rich or poor !;
wen trust you both on the above condi-
tons, without any further security.

And the salt, salt tears that come into my eyes,
Speak plain that mine are dead.

A few woods remain to be said for the
benefit &C strangers who may wish to WIS.,
it the Upper Mississippi country and try
the fishing. Take any of the railroad
routes that strike the Upper Mississippi
River, at Dunlieth, Prairie du Chen, or
La Crosse, which last is the most north
erly point where a railroad from the East
reaches the river. Thence take the st.
Paul steamers, which will carry you up
the Mississippi, through Lake Pepin, and
land you at any point on the river where
you wish to commence fishing. Or, you
can 90 all the way round to St. Paul by
railroad via Prairie du Chen, and then
drop down the Mississippi by steamer if
you..like. The writer's favorite route to
Lake Pepin is via La Crosse. A steam
boat trip on the Upper Mississippi, in
the summer, is one of the most delight
full excursions that can be made in this
world. The boats are elegant, swift, and
sale; the scenery romantic, where the
river constantly winds among high bluffs;

and all that sort of thing. You can
hardly go amiss of good trout, fishing
anywhere on the Wisconsin side of the
river above La Crosse, whether in the
vicinity of the Mississippi, or back in the
neigbborhood of Black River Falls, Chip
pewa Falls, or Eau Claire, or St. Croix
Falls. East of the st. Croix River, as
also over in Minnesota, back of Tavlor's
Falls, above St, Paul, St. Anthony Falls,
and Minneapolis, and on. across, and be-
low the Minnesota River, there are num-
berless beautiful likes, full of fine game
fish, and surrounded by pleasant shores;
and all about there you will find pleasant
villages, and hospitable people. The trout
streams with which the writer is person
ally familiar are named in the tenth let
ter. There is this difference between the
fishing Of the interior lakes and that Of
Lake Pepin and Lake st. Croix in
some of the former you can take lar
ger catch of some one or two or three
kinds of fish; while in the latter, and at
adjacent points on the Mississippi, you
will have a greater variety of game fish,
probably not less than twenty. Hence,
/ give the preference, in estimating the
SPORT to Pepin and St. Croix. Besides,

Hunting and Fishing i'm Pierce County.
WASHINGTON, March 81, 1860.

WASHINGTON, March 81, 1869.
DEAR GENERAL We have gone
Just far enough on our fishing excursion
to find out that there is no use trying TO
do full justice to the ground and the wa
tiers whereof we write in fancy sketch
with fish pole twelve hundred miles
long. As to that Big trout in the Rush
River pool, we had to anchor to wind
ward, in the possibility that he wasn't
there; that some pot-fisher from st. Paul
had gobbIed him. But Nichols writes
me that he is there. Hence we have
got him substantially on our hands, and
must catch him, if we continue our fish
ing, or quit the woods in disgrace. That
trout is not to be taken by chance, with
any show of probability. Nothing but
the best laid plans and the finest strate-
gy will answer. This requires time and
further knowledge. He is in there with
a hundred others. We must find out
under which particular bunch of moss he
lives; what is his favorite grub" and
how it must be presented. Besides, the
eyes of Pierce County and Lake City,
and perhaps St. Paul, are upon us;-if
we make any blunders we shall be laugh
ed at, and if we show just Row to catch
him, somebody may infringe our patent
aud lift him before we can make our APP
pearance at that camp in our proper cor
poreal persons next summer, to foreclose
on him our unquestioned equitale lien.
And, also, the writer begins to feel en-
barrassed with the littleness of bis knowl-
edge of the spots and subjects that de-
serve notice on our return trip. Anoth
or real visit-next time with view of
writing-beeomes necessary. Hence, l
grieve to say 1t, we must adjourn abrupt
Iy over TIL June. 1t breaks my heart al
most to part with you and Nichols, even
oil paper; but there is the consolation
that enough may have been said and
done by US in the sketches, to bring us
face to face with each other in real fish
ing by-andby, and 10 encourage us to 90
and meet our other good friends and
"yolly fellers" in that country. Till
June, then, vanish off the scene, my
comrades, like Macbeth's witches.

BINGHAMPToN, April l2.-This
morning Warren Blanchard was found
dead in his house in this city. The
usual inmates, consisting of his wife
and two girls, had fed. All the doors
and windows of the house were fasten-
ed from the inside except Que from
which the woman and girls escaped.
Blanchard's head was found in brass
kettle, and bore marks of pistol ball.
The neighbors heard the disturbance
at three o'clock yesterday morning and
the report of a pistol, when . man
then ran out of the house and the noise
ceased. As the house was classed as
disorderly, no attention was paid to
the proceedings. The woman, before
leaving, washed away all traces of
blood, and there were no indications of
the manner in which the deed was
performed.

Horrible MursIer---A Man Kills his wife
and FAssr e,f4faArrnR.


ST. PAUL, April s.-A terrible
tragedy, which shocks the coInmuni-
ty and freezes the blood with horror,
took place yesterday morning, in Oak
dale township, Washington county,
about ten miles from st. Paul, end
half mile southeast Of the Halfway
House, on the saltwater road. a far
mer. named James Il. Gray, well
known to many in this city, in fit Of
insanity killed his wife aud four chill
dren, the particulars of this horrible
tragedy being as follows:
The perpetrator Of this horrible deed,
J. b. Gray, is man about 40 years OF
age, an American by birth, a native OF
Harrisburg, powerfully built, six feet
in height, with fine form, long black
hair, and blue eyes. His wife, Alice,
was 33 years of age.
About daylight, yesterday morning
James Armstrong, a near neighbor,
heard loud yell5 coming from the di-
rection of Gray's house. Hi5suspicions
were aroused, and he walked over to-
wards Gray's place, ana when near e
norgh to hear, distinguished Gray
screams to be the exclamation "Oh
come and hang me" continually re-
peated. He walked near and saw
Gray sitting on the steps of the grana-
ry, with rope in his hands, alternate
/ ly whistling sand screaming. Arm
strong ran at once to the residence OF
Mr.. Il. NJ. Gray, the father of the un-
happy man, and gave the alarm. The
/ startled father took the nearest way a
/ cross the field, while Armstrong and
one OF the brothers followed the road
to Gray's house. The aged father ar
rived first, and repairing to the house
pushed open the door, and horror ol
horrors, what sight met his eyes
His four little pratling grandchildrer
lay upon the -four, side by side, cover
ed with a quilt, their throats cut from
ear to ear, and their faces gashed
and cut in a horrible manner. Turn
ing from the sickening sight, almost
frozen with horror, he staggered back
to meet the gaze of his maniac son
whe was advancing toward him with {
rope in his hand. Closing him at once
the agonized father would have addeC
another to the CHASTITY list of victims
but for the timely arrival Of Armstrong
and the son Henry. After desperate
struggle the frenzied maniac was sc
curely bound.
In answer to their inquiries regard
ing his wife, he said: Il killed then
all with the axe, and they have gone t.
heaven. On, hang me! He finall.
told them his wife was in the granary
Repairing thither, their worst fear
were realized. The body of Mrs. Ora.
was found on the floor, also covered
with quilt. The children were tw'
boys and two girls as follows Mar
garet, aged nearly 10; James b., jr., a
ged 8; David, aged 5, and Nellie Jane
