The other feat referred to has been
overtaken by a gentlemen well knowu
in Parisian fashionable circles, lfe

Th's is the age of eo-operatii en

from a prospe.-tus, that a number of
citizens in Raleigh and other portions
f the state have obtained a charter
for the South Atlantic Life aud Endow

is a wot k in the right directiou as
the prospectus very properly suys.
Buiid up and develop Raleigh and

hope to see it made oue of the lead
ing and strong insurance coinpauies
of the state, and feel certain thit
before ten years pass the success of
this company will cause several oth
ers to be organized.
The incorporators are practical
business men, aud have arranged such
easy payuieuts for the capital stock,
that almost any one can subscribe for
a few shares. The plan of one hun
dred monthly payments have been
adopted. We feel conlident, that the
company will soon be organized, and
that it will be of great advantage to
the state.

are they that French ollicers at Bang

money that they were girls. Boys of
this deceptive appearance being rare
