The Mound City Mutual Life Insurance
Company being Home Institution, it should
be preferred by citizens of the South for ma
nv reasons We will, however, enumerate
only two or three.
i. The money invested in it is retained at
home, where it assists in promoting Western
and Southern trade and commerce, in build
ing up towns and cities. in developing our
rich mineral and agricultural resources, Ill
building our great lines of railroad, and IN
cnltivating our boundless prairies. For these
reasons Southern and Western men should
insure in it.
2. As its funds are all invested where high
rates of interest prevail, it can grant insurance
cheaper and pay better dividends than ANY
Eastern Comp pany. For this reason all per-
sons desiring to make certain and safe pro-
vision for their families. should insure in it.
3. Its Local Board Of Louisiana Directors
| being composed of men of high standing in
the community. is sufficient guarantee that
| widows and orphans will be protected in their
rights, when policies issued by this Company
mature by reason of death or otherwise This
feature is peculiar to this company, (no other
institution beyond the limits of the State hav-
ing local board,) and is, therefore, worthy
of the highest consideration.
All kinds of Policies are issued by this com
pany. All policies nonforfei:ing

brief In its terms but pregnant with an amount OF
human happiness, or at least putting an end to hii-

the acts Of modern sovereignty The decree, which
is TO take effect Immediately, is that all citizens OF
the annexed Roman provinces are placed on the
same footing as regards civil rights Four Thousand
eight hundred Jews huddled together in the Ghetto,
and who, until very few years ago, Were iorciDly
penned up there by the huge IRON gates being closed
at nlghttal and neither ingress nor egress per-

thus emancipased. What episodes OF misery, what
epochs Of persecution are not suggested by their

assigned to them about the middle OF the sixteenth
century, by Pope Paul w., with the benevolent
view OF preserving Catholics from the fatal conta-

precincts Of the Ghetto; but even then only In Its
immediate vicinity. The permissons however
were never granted In legal form not even in
writing. The Jews were IN all respects the pariahs

pleasing to God ana man. Their testimony was not
considered as valid IN any court OF law, so that

permission to attend the medical lectures at the
