To the People of South Carolina:
The above Company was organized in 1866
IN consequence of the Wholesale forfeiture of
Southern policies by Northern companies. The
unparalleled success of tho enterprise has
forced several of these companies to restore
their Southern policies, from the fact that they
could not operate in our midst without the ap-
pearance Of honesty.
We keep all our money at home to build up
our impoverished country-evcry dollar Of
premium being safely invested in the State
from which it is derived. The institution ia
purely Southern, and hence should appeal
with great force to the patriotism and sympa-
thy OF every Southern heart.
lis not our purpose to make war on other
companies, but to exhibit the special adyan-
tages offered by this purely Southern Compa-
ny-founded on patriotism and solid wealth.
Its ratio OF assets to liabilities-the true test
OF company's strength, is second to none on
this continent-being nearly 500 to 100.
whenever and wherever we have presented
the claims of this Company, it has not only
enlisted the sympathies Of our people, but hes
also secured their hearty cooperation. We
have secured 500 policies. in SoSth Carolina
since the 10th Of February. We number
among our Directors Gen. Wade HAMPTON and
Col. Vim. Johnston, gentlemen well known to
every citizen Of South Carolina. We appcal
PERSONALLY to the people of South Carolina to
assist in pushing forward this deservedly
popular Southern institution.

Why should Western and Southern men nav

when the Life Association has large demand
for it at 10 per cent? High interest insures
large dividends.
The LIFE ASSOCIATION proposes to tho

all the Southern States, to make it HOME
COMPANY-that is, to invest the money, de-
rived from each State in the different States
from which it is collected Money is very much
needed in the Wcet and South. to assist in de-
veloping aud building up the CONNIE rcial, ma

panies from investing money outside their own
States; and az these companies have hereto
fore done large portion Of tho business OF the

tions-of the use Of which they are deprived
by law-we therefore earnestly urge upon our
people the necessity of insuring their lives in
good Western and Southern Companies only,

The CONTESTED ELECTIONS IN THE
THIRD AND FOURTH CONGRESSIONAL. DIS.
rR1cTs.-"Corsair, the correspondent of
the Charleston Neos. says:
Upon the meeting of Congress, which
commences on the first Monday in De-
cember, the case Of A. 8. Wallace Vs.
w: d. Simpson-contested election
will come up.
This case, it will be remembered. was
presented along with that of s. D. Hoee
VS.. j. P. Reed, which was forced through.
and Hoge seated, just ct the end of the
last session of Congress; and this case of
Wallace vs. Simpson would have been
forced through in the same style but for
want Of time. Three hours more might
have disposed of it as the other had been.
The reports of both cases-both maiori-
ty and minority-were exactly alike.
Oer6atin. The following is the majority
report in the case of Hoge vs.. Reed:
Resoloed, That, upon the papers refer
red to, the Committee of Elections. in
the contested case of s.. l.. Hoge VS.. J.
r. Reed, from the Third Congressional
District OF South Carolina, 8. L. Hope
is prin'a fdcie entitled to q seat in the
House, as the representative of said
District. subject to the future action of
the House as to the merits of the case.
U pom the same case, the minority re-
port-made by Messrs. Burr aud Ran
dall-is as follows:
Resoloed, That J. P. Reed ia not ent;.
tied. under resolution of March, 1869. 10
seat from the Third District of South
Carolina, by reason of ineligibility. and
that s. L. Hoge is not entitled to such
seat, because he was not by the Rreatcst
number of votes duly elected by the
people o. that District.
The two cases, then, STAND upon the
same footing, and the arguments both
pro and co" are made in nearly tho same
words. az = .kss
