ern Life, is, we believe, the only one, vSseh re-
tains its money in tho State Not ono dollar ia
ken in Georgia is sent out of tho State, but is
securely invested among our own people fer the
protection of policy holders and the development
of our own material prosperity.
This feature in the Southern Life has na:ural-
ly excited the animosity of tho Northern Cunpn.
mics, and been the cause of the most slandsrous
attacks from Northern Insurance Journals ohesc
attacks, however, have had mo other result than
to add very largely to the business Of the CON-
pany, and to bring forth replies from its Office
which proves beyond all controversy, unIes the
people believe that Gen. Gorien is guilty OF per-
jury, that the Southern Life is not only sol1ent,
but the strongest company doing business n the
United States. The true test cf comp,ny's
solvency is not the amount of assets but the ELLA
tive ratio of assets to liabilities. A company nay
have twenty million of assets and owe twenty
ono million, and thus be as surely insolveE as
one which owes million and hds no assts.
Judged by this rule the Southern Life stands
without compeer among all the life insurance
companies of the United States, as the following
table will show. This tablo is compiled from Tho
sworn returns to the Insurance Superintendent of
New York, for the year ending December Slst,

Tho above letter from Mrs. MARY D. WARD
needs no explanation. Her lamented husband,
Maj. Amos e. Ward, was formerly among the
weallhiest and most enterprising of our citizens,
but like nearly all the rest Of us, ruined by the
results of the war. On the 18th day Of last Feb
ruary he made application TO the Southern Life
Insurance Company for policy of ten thousand
dollars, which was accepted md the policy issued.
In less than ten days after he received his policy,
he was taken sick and fingered until his death,
which took place on the Goth of April The
proof Of his death was forwarded to the company
on the Oath Of May, and Col. Alston, the sipervi-
sing agent Of the company, came at once to
Cuthbert and offered to pay unto the family the
full amount of the claim, provided they would de
duct the 80 days interest, which Mrs. Wara de-
clined to do. The money was therefore due on
August oath, and on the 21st was paid over.
We are glad to know that this descrl ledly
popular company is doing very large bu.uc:s 5
in the South-arger perhaps, than any Dthcr
Company: 1t is q purely Southern corporation,
and has been instrumental in stopping, to some
extent, the immense drain from our Impoverished
section, of millions, which annually go Norh for
Life Insurance, which by calculation, buE jed on
the statistics which can be obtainod roach the
enormous sum of over twelve millions OF dollars
annually. There are twenty seven Notthern

THELOST SUMMER.
The swallows all have taken flight

The swallows all have taken hight
Across the dreary sea;
The flowers that made the summer bright,
Are dylngon the lea,
And in October's darker glooms
The rObbing sit and sing,
Where late among the apple blooms
The blackbird pIumed his wings.
And sadly signing through the wood,
The breezes come to say,
"Oh golden summer, bright and good,
You make too short stay,
For had you fingered yet,
Our breath would still be mild;
But stern old Winter makes us fret
To tempests fierce and wild"
SO 1t had been with thee, poor heart
Ifsummer had but stay'd,
If thine had been that pleasant part
For which thy youth time prayd-
IfWinter had not fallen on thee
Ere June'S sweet hours were run
God knows, it may have kept the free
From much that thou hast done.
But in the frosts that Winter brought
The vlolets could not bloom,
And never more will earth be fraught
For thee with such perfume.
Yet far beyond the silver track
or countless stars, they say,
Our earth-lost Summers will come back
To make longer stay.
