This classification, extending over a long period,and covering property to a very large amount,fur- nishes reliable data, aud presents a sound, substantial basis of actual experience, upon which to conduct its business. Insurance is uot a matter of luck or chance, as many suppose; its hazards are ascertainable, and its principles capable of being reduced to .a system, the practical working and results of which are as certain as that of any other business. The .iCtna Compauy, by adhering rigidly to its system, and placing its busi ness upon a healthy basis, has obtained the confidence of the community to an extent surpassed by no other Company in the U. States, and has increased its busi ness and its income from ye.ar to year with a steady ^'ty for the old ci'edit system; therefore, in future j growth. One great source of its security is the wide , distributiou of its risks—a policy which it pursues I with great strictness—limiting the amount to be cov- ! ered in each locality. By this course it has passed, with comparative impunity, through some of the most ! sweeping and destructive fires, which have swallowed up I other companies less cautious in their business. It is I a s\stem like thi.s, bused upon experience, which gives i staoility and s- un'lriess to :i companj', .and to the as- suri'il coiifi k-iice and sccuritv. — fialtiinore Patriot.

PROSPE TUIS OF THE NORTH CAROLLNA PRESBYTERIAN. ^B^HE Presbyterian Church in North Carolina has M. long labored under a serious disadvantage from the want of a journal to advocate her claims and rep resent her interests. It is estimated that only 1000 Presbyterian Weeiilies are taken in the bounds of our three Presbyteries. We have 13,000 Communicants, and it is safe to infer that there are 30,000 Presbyte rians iu principle in the State. Our Synod stands fifth in the Union in point of numbers, aud her mem bership is greater than that of any Synod South or West of Pennsylvania. Our sister States on the North and South, neither of which has a membership so large as ours, publish the Central, and the Southern Presbj’terian, for the benefit of their people. The time has come when the Presbyterian Church in North Carolina should likewise do her duty to her children. It is a conceded ami important fact, that hundreds of our members will take a State paper who will take no other. The Paper is needed to be the organ of our Synod and Presbyteries—to elevate and enlighten the piety of our membership by diffusing evangelical knowledge—to promote the cause of Education—to develope the talents of our Ministry, and to strength en the attachment of our people to the soil and sanc tuaries of their own State. If our Church iu other States, and other Churches in this State, can supply their members with a Re ligious journal, why may not we'? Are North Caro lina Presbyterians inferior in talent, energy and patriotism to their neighbors on the North or Jiouth, or to Christians of other deuomiuations at home? W’ith the same or better opportunities of accomplish ing this work, shall we leave it undone? In the lan guage of one of our most able and useful Ministers, an adoi".i‘d ‘^■in of our State, “It ought to have been un.)prt:ik,T years ago, but it is not too late to be- siiti to do rii^ht.’ In the last two or three months, a fund of about •■^5000 ha.s been .subscribed as a permanent capital. \t a meeting of the contributors, held at Greensbo- roiigh on the 14th of .May, Rev. A. Baker, Chairman, —the Paper was unanimously located at Fayetteville, under the name and title of the Nokth Carolina pRESBYTEiiiAN. Rev. Wm. N. Mebane and Rev. tjeorge .MeNeill were elected Editors; Rev. Messrs. George McNi-i.l, Wm. N. .Mebane, A. Baker, and C. H. Wdey, and .Niessrs. George McNeill, Sr., John H. Cook and David Murphy were appointed an Executive Committee, to establish the Paper and manage its business affairs. It is our wish and design to make the North Cako- ■..iXA PiiKsBVTKRiA.N a joumal of the first class, equal to the best iu the country in typographical appear ance and in adaptation to the wants of our Churches. Its columns will afford the latest intelligence, both foreign and domestic, aod special care will be taken to give a full aud accurate summary of State news. The name of the Paper is designed to be an exponent of its character and contents. From conviction, it will advocate the conservative, orthodox, Old School doctrines and order of the Church. Our first appeal is to our own people—to N. C. Presbyterians. Whilst we rely confidently upon the favor, we trust that the native sons of North Carolina who have found homes in other States, and the adopt ed citizens of our State who form so important an element in our .Ministry and membership, will take a deep interest in this enterprise and give it their hearty support. Ter.ms: C2 per annum in advance, or on delivery of the first number; 50 in six months; $3 at the end of the year. To clubs of 25 or more, paying in I advance and when the Paper is sent to one address, a discount of 10 per cent, will be allowed. Our MiuiS' ters and Elders are earnestly desired to act as Agents, aud all others friendly to the cause will please assist in procuring as many subscribers as possible, and for ward the names, Li/ Au^utl lit, to this Office. As soon as 1500 subscribers are obtained, the first num- I ber will be issued. If a faithful and vigorous effort j is made iu the next two months by those who take a lively interest in this work, we will, without doubt, be able to begin the publication at the end of that time with a paying subscription list of at least 3000. .Address, Editors of the North Carolina Presby terian, Fayetteville, N, C.

IN offering lo the Public my Magazine, I claim for the Editorial Chair no superiority over that de partment of other Iikc Periodicals; but 1 do claim for the talent ot North Carolina, aud the South generally, tUat will be brought to its support, Southern patron age. .Vud 1 also, as a Southern man, aud the Editor of a Souttieru .Magazine, claim at the hands of the Southern couiitrj, auJ especially of North Carolina, that aid and support that will here, at home, establish, upon a film basis, a foantuin of Literature, and ex clusively a Home Literary Magazine. .Many arc tue .Magazines now published in the Northern States that are floodiug the whole Southern country. There is uot, (it is probable,) a county in auy ^outheru State th.-it is uot visited by “Harper,” ••Graham, ’ “Peterson,” or “Godey;” while here, in North t.'arolina aud the South, where genius unsur passed and uuequaled nigns, the literary talent that is brought iuto exercise is dedicated to the support of Northern .NJagazines, while Southern enterprise, taste anu talent bow in humble submission to such suicidal policy of Southern contributors. Why, I ask, cannot we—North Carolina, the South —send greeting to our Southern clime a Magazine, acceptable for the many qualities that adorn the pages of the most chaste, elegant and polite Periodicals.' It is true that the South has her Magazines; but few in number are they, aud uukuowu, compared to the pub- licatious of the North, which every mail brings to our homes, filled with the result of hired labor, and teem ing with unpardonable sedition. Then I appeal to North Carolina and other Southern States to aid me iu my enterprise, and in promoting a literary taste amongst those upon whom, as a South ern man, 1 have c!.iims.
