a$A CARD-SOUTHERN LIFE INSUR-
ANoE COMPANY, ATLANTA DEPARTMENT.
To the People of South Caroliaa:
The above Company was organized In 1855, In
consequence of the Wholesale forfeiture Of Southern
policies by Northern companies. The unparalleled
success Of the 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 appearance Of honesty.
We keep all our money at home to build up our
impoverished country-every dollar of premium
being safely invested In the state from which 1t Ia de.
rived The institution purely Southern. and hence
should appeal with great force to the patriotism and
and sympathy OF every Southern heart.
'Tis not our purpose to make war on other COM
panles. but 10 exhibit tho special advantages offered
by this purely Southern Company-founded on
patriotism and solid wealth. Its ratio of assets to
labiliues-the true test of company's strengths
second to none on this continent, being nearly $500
to SlO0.
Whenever and wherever we have presented the
claims of tlis Company il has not only enlisted the
sympahes of our people, but has also secured their
hearty cooperation. We have secured 6Oo policies
in South Carolina since the 10th of February. We
number among our Directors General Wade Hamp-
ton and Colonel VIM. Johnston. gentlemen we'll
known to every citizen OF South Carolina. We ap-
peal personally to the people of South Carolina to
assist in pushing forward this deservedly popular
Southern institution. j. d. MlLLEh,

ON NEITHER SIDE.

Some people console themselves that
they are neither for nor against Christ.
This is fearful delusion. A Hindoo might
make such declaration with some show Of
truth, but no man in Christian land can.
The devil has complete control Of those
who claim to be on neutral ground. The
object of Christ is to utterly destroy Satan S
kingdom. This He will ultimately accom-.
plish. Then those who have united them
selves to Christ and manfully struggled in
the contest, will be gloriously rewarded
with seat at His right hand where there
are joys and pleasures forever more. And
those who have opposed the reign of Christ,
and those who claim to have been neutral
in the struggle, will be driven away in
wild confusion to the lake that burns with
fire and birthstone Then, instead of claim
ing to have been uninterested spectators,
they will repeat forever and ever in the
abodes of despair, 81 knew nay duty but
did it not"

ORIGINAL AND SELECTED.
FAITH AND WORKS.

The religion of some individuls consists
in faith without works. This class of
religionists is made up of faithless crea-
lures mere theorists. There is nothing
practical, in their lives. Their deyotions
are strange medley of superstition, by
pocrisy and gross ignorance. Religion to
them is myths dream-an intangible
something; dead carcass which produces
nothing but putrefaction. All Of those who
have nothing but faith are dead in tres
passes and sins. Their lives are either
grossly sinful or stupidity inert. They are
spiritual sluggards, who fold their arms in
carelessness until their destruction will
come like an armed man.
There is another class Of individuals
whose religion consists wholly in works.
These are BabeItes. Their watchword is
"Go to let us make brick and build tower
which will reach to heaven" These per-
sons expect to climb to heaven on ladder
of their own construction. They would rob
the blessed Saviour of the triumphs of his
death.
Both of the above classes Of men have
wrong ideas of religion. Faith and works
are inseparably connected. The absence
of faith is demonstrated by the absence Of
works and the want of works proves the
want of faith.

LONG SERMoNs.-A lawyer who occu-
pies three hours in arguing question of
law relating to the ownership Of a barrel
of apples, is indignant at his minister for
exceeding twenty-five minutes in unfolding
one of the great principles Of morality, on
the observance of which the tolerable exis-
tence of society depends. The judge, who
fills two hours with his 'opinion" on the
right of a counsel to challenge a witness,
grumbles at his minister because he has
prolonged the discussion Of the fundamen-
tai laws of human existence to thirty min
utes. The physician who takes ten minutes
to prepare the medicine for the headache,
is nervously restive if his minister spends
twice as many in attempting to relieve a
chronic heartache. The belle who has
spent-how long ?-in adjusting the bows
on her bonnet, is remorseless in her criti-
cism on the minister who does not finish
his meditations on the character Of God in
fifteen minutes. The fop who has combed
and perfumed and waxed his beard and
moustache for an hour, is mortified past
enduranceif the poor minister is not through
his discussion of the immortal life ''inslde
of twenty minutes.

RELIGION PRACTICAL.

No man, says the Rev. John Caird, can
become soldier by studying books on mil.
itary tactics in his closet; he must in &C.
tual service acquire those habits of GOODNESS,
courage, discipline, address, rapid combina.
on, without which the most learned in the
theory of strategy, or engineering will be
but school-boy soldier after all. And
in the same way, man in solitude and
study may become most learned theolo'
gian, or may train himself into the timid.
eHeminate piety of "religious life;" but
never, in the highest and holiest sense, car
he become a religious man until he has &C.
quired those habits of daily self-denial, Of
resistance to temptation, of kindness, gen.
tleness, humility, sympathy, active beni6,
cence, which are to be acquired only in
daily contact with mankind. Tell us not
then, that the man of business, the bustling
tradesman, the toilworn laborer, has little
or no time to attend to religion. As well
tell US that the pilot, amid the winds and
storms, has no leisure to attend to nayiga
ton, or the general on the field of battle tc
the art of war. Where will he attend tc
it? Religion in this life is mainly and
chiefly the glorifying God amid the duties
and trials Of the world; the guiding our
course amid the adverse winds and currents
of temptation by the starlight of duty and
the compass of Divine truth; the bearing
us manfully, wisely, courageously for the
honor of Christ, our great Leader, in the
conflict.
