We might fill our paper with the horrible de-
tails of this disaster which reach us in N. Y.
Herald, of Sd and 4th, but the heart sickens at
portrayal and we forbear. Nine hundred and
fifty souls were on board, of which number 800
were saved and 562 lost The ghouls pillaged
the dead as they washed ashore and then turn
ed the bodies adrift again. A large trench was
dug into which the bodies of the poor unclaim-
ed were put. The steamer was rapidly going
to peices but every effort was being made to
recover the rest Of the dead. The scenes in N.
L around the Company and newspaper Offices
were heartrending, as the list of lost and saved.
was read out. The foundation of the calamity
was insufficient coaling aud characterization of
distance and time by the officers in charge.
The Dominion Parliament has ordered a search
log investigation and, as that is not the United
States, the truth will be brought out and full
justice melted those who are to blame for this
appalling calamity, which sweeps 562 souls in
to eternity, without warning and causes mourn
ing and sorrow, that cannot be comforted,
throughout the civilized world.

What Virginians Can Do.

The results OF the late war not only destroy

publications, Of the vast superiority of the
North over the South, in business enter.
prises, Of all kinds, energy and financial man
agement. Col. w. G. Darlington, President
of Piedmont & Arlington, saw and felt his blight
upon our life and recuperation, with others, and
determined to show the world that Southern tai
ent, properly directed, can equal any on the
globe. Seeing that the people of the South
were annually sending nearly $2O,OO0,OOO In
cash to Northern and New England Life In
surance Companies, thereby building up pala-
tial insurance palaces all over tie North aoith
our hard earned money, he made study OF
Life Insurance and started, amid gloom and
helplessness, the Piedmont.
Taking his agents from the rank and file Of
our glorious armies, he put his enterprise before
the doubling Southern people upon It's naked
merits, and, by business management never
surpassed, and an energy untiring, he has
placed it In the front rank of Life Insurance
Companies in the world. It's progress has been
truly marvellous, and its caution has become an
example for all safe business enterprises It's ex-
penses are about onehalf of all Co.'S of like age,
and less than many older ones. 1t has passed the
most rigid and prejudced inspections of North.

fully operating in 81 States. It therefore offers
to our people home Company, whose great cap

inducements as entitle it to preference over any
Company doing business in our midst.
Its profits are divided between the policy
and stockholders in the proportion of 874 pei

are scattered over vast extent of country and
1t has already paid over 5000, 600 to deceased

been delay or the usua! impediments made by
foreign concerns. 1t affords us peculiar pleas
ure to note the growth and prosperity of this
great Company, and we feel a true Virginia
pride in it and its President and officers. The
duty of all to insure has been so fully put forth,
that we deem it only necessary to show the best

According to last exhibit the Company shows
