VIEWS OF THE ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS telegram
from New York, dated October 6, says that
the New York Tribune purports to give the
views Of the Administration in regard TO the
Cuban question. 1t says shipments Of arms
and munitions of war to either party will not
be prohibited. The revolutionists have AN
equal right to buy and ship arms with the
Spaniards. The neutrality laws prohibi; the
fitting out of military or naval expeditions.
We constantly bought arms of England dur
ing the rebellion. Nobody questioned the
right of England to sell to the United States,
or TO the Confederates or blockade runners,
who took their own risks Of capture; hut the
Alabama was fitted out ship of war to
destroy our commerce. The recognition Of
Cuban independence would not alter the law.

A'commission is about to proceed to
some Of the Southern States for the in
7estigation Of certain pension claims,
chiefly of negroes, said to have been
procured through an extensive system
of frauds. No doubt the frauds were
perpetrated by white men, and for their
own benefit, the negroes being used,
probably with their consent and for n
trifing compensation, as mere tools and
Instruments.

- pony, Atlanta Deibartment. M


pany, Atlanta Department.. laI
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 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 ap-
pearance Of honesty.
We keep ell our money at home to build up
our impoverished countiy-eYery dollar of
premium being safely invested in the State
from which 1t is derived. The institution is
purely Southern, and hence should appeal
with great force to the patriotism and sympa-
thy OF every Southern heart.
Tislhot our purpose to make war on other
companies, but to exhibit the special advan-
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 contnent-being nearly 800 to 1CO.
whenever and wherever we have presented
the claims of this Company, it has not only
enlisted the sympathies of our people, but ha 8
also secured their hearty cooperation. We
nave secured 500 policies in Soxth Carolina
since the 10th of February. We number
among our Directors Gen. Wado Hampton and
Col. VIM. johnston, gentlemen well known to
every citizen of South Carolina. Wo appeal
personally to the people Of South Carolina to
assist in pushing forward this deservedly
popular Southern institution.

complete, an immense work of art has
been erected in his honor on the Western
wall Of the Hudson River Railroad in
the city of New York. It consists of an
immense bronze statue of the Commodore
placed in the centre of colossal bas-
relief, which is contrived to illustrate the
career and achievements of the Commo-
dore, to represent the great inventions
OF this century, and to portray allegori-
cally the growth of the Republic. It
covers an arena of 3,125 square feet,
measures $50 feet in straight line, and
81 feet in extreme height; weighs nearly
100000 pounds, and cost over half o
million Of dollars. But beautiful wives,
millions of money. and colossal bronze
statues are not always happiness. To
the bachelor who earns his daily bread
by the sweat of his brow, this may seem
incredible; but we are told it is true,
nevertheless.

tematic benevolence and Sabbath Schools, showed
an increased interest in these subjects. A goodly
number of the churches have adopted some plan
for making collections at every meeting for wor-
ship; and Sabbath Schools are in successful opera
ton in most of the churches.
A call from Mount Holly church for the pastoral
services of Rev. Geo. +. Eagleton, was placed in
his hands, aud he having signi6ed his acceptance
