The announcement that 10000 SOL

| ANOTHER RICHMOND IN THE FIELD.
Our readers have introduced to their at
tention, this morning, another candidate
for their favors, in the Brooklyn Life In
surance Company, of New York. Mr.
Charles Medcalfe, the Superintendent of
Agencies, is n gentleman we'll known to
some of onr most prominent citizens.
AC has secured the services of Messrs
John E. Bacon and w. P. Butler-gen-
tlemen of high standing, and we'll known
throughout this State-as general agents
and managers of Che Brooklyn Life for
tho State of South Carolina and for Au-
gusta, Ga. Ihe Brooklyn presents many
new advantages in life insurance, promi-
nent among which are the following:
Its tables of premiums are from fve to
soven per cent. less than other compa-
MES; the surrender value of each policy
is endorsed on the same, for each thou
sand dollars value OF insurance, after
every declaration of dividend; and no
discrimination is made in the classlica-
tion Of risks, either in the North, South,
East or West-a feature which is far in
advance of the system carried ont by
other Northern companies-as the
Brooklyn takes risks only in notoriously
healthy sections of the country. we
commend this company to the patronage
OF the State. Judge Bacon is the resi-
dent agent in Columbia, and extends
cordial invitation to his friends and the
public to "tnke the current when it
serves"
