The New Tale, by the Authoress of THE LAMPLIGHTER! ISS CUMMINS has chosen for the title e! her new book the name of the principal heroine, the beautiful and accomplished MABEL VAUGHN, And has written a story which, for elegance of diction and thrilling interest, has rarely lieen equalled n_y any .\merican lady. The ijuestion has been repeatedly askei—Can Miss Cummins write another book equal to ‘‘The Lamplighterl'" We can answer this question now with perfeet assurance, not only from our own personal knowledge, but from tlie unqualihed testi mony of literary gentlemen of Boston, who have read the work with great care, and with absorbing interest. • ■th of whom pronounce it n superior book to her first, and assure us that the authoress of "The Lamp lighter.” instead of losing position, will add immense ly to her previously wed-earned and world-wide repu- ta ion.

J. t.’U'RTlS. iSSflO.OOO more, making its entire assets ever .'ji^OO,- ('00, invested as iletailed in the statement referred to These results indicate th.at during the period of nearly forty years since its oixanizilion, (without a single change of its chief officer,) its business has been con ducted witli judgment and prudence. It has been thus fur succcssiul in an eminent degree, discharging, as we are inform d. all its obligations by the payment ol about ti'ii million dollars for losses, without asking a day’s delay in any instance, it has had but little lit- igatiou, m iwith.stan ling the immeose number of trans actions made. In order to attain as much certainty as possib'e in such a business as insurance, it has lieen the pr.ictice of the C'ompany, for several years, at great labor, carefully to classify and anan^e their risks into about fii'ty distinct classes, so as to ascertaiu the amount insured on each class, the amount of pre miums received thereon, amt the amount of losses up on each. This classification, extending over n long period,and covering property to a very large amount,!iii - iiishes reliable data, and presents a sound, substantial basis of actual experience, upon which to conduct its business. Insurance isnot a matter of luck or chance, as many suppose; its hazards are ascertainable, an-i its principles capable of bciriij reduced to a system, the practical working and results of which are as certain as that of any other business. Tiie .Etna Comiiany. by adhering rigidly to itssv’stem, andp'acing it.“ busi ness upon a healthy basis, has obt.iined tiie confidence of the community to an extent sur|ias.'nl by no other Company in the U. States, aud has incrciiS’- I its busi ness and its income from year to year with a steady growth. Oue'great source of its security is the wide distributiou of its risks—a }"ilicy which it pursues with great strictness—limitin.tr the amount to be cov ered in each locality. By tiiis course it has passed, with comparative impunity, through some of the most sweej'ing atid desiructive fires, which have swallowed uj) other companies less cautious in their busines.-r. it ;s a system like this, based upon experience, which gives stability an I soundness to a company, and to the as sured confidence and security. — Jidlfunurr Pit!rm!. .ETM wm (OMIMW, ll.Vin TOKl).
