Marine Insurance.

Marine insurance is the oldest kind

were first employed in the fourteenth
century by the merchants of BARGE

Tho Southern girl of the ante
bellum period-the rose of the old
regime-was q hearts delight. She
was never q lirt. There is diff
ference between firt and coquette
the kind of difference there is
between q humming bird, making
q dainty pretsnse of kissing a jasa-
mine-and q cat playing with a
mouse. Coquetry with the South
ern girl of that by-goue day was
the unconscious challenge of fe-
minnie woman accustomed to hO-
mage. It never verged upon
coarseness or cruelty-never lost
her the mans esteem, which re.
NAMED to her after the hot whirl
of the senses had subsidized under
the cool surprise of her look. No,
the Southern girl was DO flirt. She
was sentimental. 1t WAS her
sweetest charm-the drop of dew
in her heart of the rose, keeping
| it fresh forever. Her sentiment
was not sickly. The girl who che
rished q dead flower her lover had
given her, would bind up his
wounds ou bloody battle field or
ride through a storm of bullets TO
warn him of danger-or cook his
dinner or iron his shirt when he
was her husband and had lost his
patrimony and beaten his sword
into q plowshare. They were ca
psble of dying with broken hearts
but dying with unfurled colors.
