All its policies -forfeitable and the right
of parties guaranteed the face of the policy as
part of the contract.
1t has the following feature which no other
company gives: The late war taught many the
penalty Of being separated from the Home Office
by having their part payment forfeited 1.-THE
Piedmont guards against this in her policies and
in event of separation from its Office by any in-
PREVENTION guarantees to such all the right Of
forfeiture, paid up policy, surrender value and
reinstatement as though there had been no inter-
vening cause.
Its investments are made for benefit of South
ern advancement.
II brings money to our people-keeps money
with our people Then why should they contin-
ue to lmpoverish themselves by sending money
of which can as easily-as safely-as proftably
be spent at home?
The Piedmont asks all who wish to insure to
compare its rates-terms-progress with any
company, and feels confident its merits will equal
any other company.

Social Equality.

A bill passed the House of Delegates of South
Carolina recently, by nearly unanimous vote,
making it misdemeanor, punishable with
three years hard labor 10 the penitentiary and
one thousand dollars fine, to make any distinc-
ton in any theatre, ETC., on account of color,
race or previous condition.
Really, MIR. Whittemore's constituents seem
to be determined to force themselves into res
pectabe society. They are not content with
the existing law of South Carolina, which pre-
scribes six months Imprisonment for Offences
of the kind named, but would make the penalty
SO heavy as to secure an observance of the law

RocKBRIDGE AND AUGUsTA.-The lengthy
editorial in the Valley Virginia,a of week before
last rejecting upon the wisdom of Rockbridee
as exhibited in the past seems to have touched the
senslbilities and aroused the resentment of some
OF the best citizens ofthat county The Lexington
Gazette contained a tart editorial in reply and
also letter from Maj Dorman-the delegate
from Rockbridge at the time referred to-placing
himself r. cts IN caia, and clearly showing that
the statement of the Virginian concerning the
delegate from Rockbrdge was wholly erroneous.
One of the most distinguished citizens of that
county sent to for publication in the Spectator
strong communication in reply to the Virgin
ian's article. We do not publish it for two rea-
sons, which we feel assured will be satisfactory
to the author:
lst. Because it is not necessary to the defence
of Rockbridge, as the last Virgimiaa in justice
to the wronged delegate from Rockbridge,"
published Mai Dorman's letter in refutation OF
the statement contained in the Virginian's arti-
cle
End. Because we deprecate the publication of
any article which may be calculated to ALLEVIATE
the citizens of Augusta and Rockbridge from
each other. We desire these counties to main
tain the most friendly relations to each other
Such relations are desirable at all times but
should be the character ofthe relations maintain
ed at this time For the attainment of great
and common interest now pending they should
stand shoulder to shoulder, with shield inter
locked with shield.
