THE NORTH (WKOLI.XA ST.\TIST AND
MAGAZLNE OF USEFUL UNFOHMATION.
^B^HE undersigned ]>roposes to Publish in the City
JL of Raleigh, :v .'eini-annnal JOURN.AL, of the above
title, devoted exclusively to the dissemination of ST.V-
TISTICAL INFORMATION.
The want of such a Journal is felt by every intelli
gent citizen, who desires to become at all acqiiainted
wiih the resources of the State, our present condition,
future prospects, ^!j-c., and by none so much as by our
Legislators.
That we have no regular system of statistics, cannot
be attributed to any want of material. There are
large amounts of valuable and interesting information
scattered through our Legislative and Executive Docu
ments and Records, which, in their present situation,
for all practical [iiirposes, might as well be in the Chi-
tiese language. Besides what our Legislative archives
contain, our newspapers often publish valuable statis
tical information, which is either lost, or if preserved
by a very few, is so inconvenient to find when wanted,
that the facts are soon forgotten. The same may be
said of the R*-ports and Stateni'-nts from time to time
made by our incorporated companies, .and others en
gaged in Manufactures, .Mines, Commerce, &C.
To collect these various items of information, and
give them to the public in a shape easy of reference
and for perpetual preservation, as well as to gather
from all Jivailable resources, everythii’g bearing di
rectly or indirectly on our wealth, prosperity and in-
du>tiy, is the design of the JOURN.VL now offered for
public patronage.
So far as the plan for conducting the same has been
matured, the pages of the ST.ATIST will be devoted
t) the arrangement of such tables relating to oiir
POPULATION, .AGRICULTURE, ('OMMERCE. EDU
CATION, PUBLIC IMPROVEMENTS, -MANUFAC
TURES, FISHERIES, MINES, and Social Statistics
generally, as will present their condition, and our pro
gress in each.
It is also designed to contain the Reports
of the Public Treasurer, Commissioners of the Sinking
Fund, Superintendent of Common Schools, and .all
other State Officers and Boards; as also. Statements
and Reports of the comlition and progr»‘ss of the vari
ous Railroad and Navigation (Jomp.anieii.
The ST.ATIST will be put to press as soon as a suffi
cient number of responsible names are obtained to pay
the expenses of publication. The numbers will contain
each, not less than 150 P.AGES of closely jirintcd mat
ter, making a book of 300 P.AGE.*^, or more, to which
will We addttd a full anJ complete index.
TER.MS:—THREE DOLLARS PER ANNU.M—ONE
DOLLAR AND FIFTY UENT.'^, for t^IX .MONTHS;
fiiiiinlAe it'hin the tirat numhrr i. reiuhj for jiiihlicalivii,
ivhich ffict win be (liih/ u7tnouiict ‘t in the public tietcyjntpet'.'t.
BS^Those persons intending tu patronize th« Jour
nal, will send their names to the undersigned without
delay, as if is desirable to issue the first number ;
soon as possible.

Fire Insurance*
UT E refer our readers to the annual statement of
the ..Etna Insurance Company, of Hartford,
which will be found in another column. This success
ful institution w.as incorporated by the Legislature of
Connecticut in 181!*, with a perpetual charter. Its
capit.il is •>^500.0o0, and its accumulations exceed
.'i^MiOjOOO more, making its entire assets over Jji^UO,-
Ooo, invested as itetailed in the statement referred to.
These results in lic.ate that during the period of nearly
forty years since its orijanization, (without a single
change of its chief officer,) its fmsiness has tieen con
ducted with judgment and prudence. It has been
thus far successful in an eminent degree, discharging,
as we are inforni'Ml, all its olilig.itions by the payment
of -ibout ti'n t:iiHi'iii it'ilhira for losses, without a.sking a
d.iv’s delay in any instance. It has had Imt little lit-
iguinn, notwithst.an ling the immense numlver of trans
actions made. In order to attain as much cerlmnli/ as
])('Ssible in such a business as insurance, it has been
the {'r.ictice of the ('om])ariy, for several years, at
great labor, c irefully to classify and airange their
ri.-'ks into .about fift3’ distinct classes, so as to ascertain
the amount insured on each class. th‘ amount of jire-
miunis received thereon, ann the amount of lo.sses up
on fiich. This tlassific.ation, extending over a long
period,and covering property to a very large amount,fur
nishes reliable dat.i, and presents a sound, substantial
basis of actual experience, u]ion which to conduct its
business Insurance is not ;i matter of luck or cfiance,
as many suppose; its hazards ate ascertainable, and
its lu’incipies capable of beiiiij reduced lo a system, the
jii .-icticii working and results of wiiich are as certain
as th.it of any other business. The .Etna f'ompany,
b\ .adhering rigidly to its system, and placing its busl-
n(-.''S njion a healthy b asis, has otitMined the confidence
of the community to an extent surpassed by no other
Company in tiie U. States, and has increased its fiusi-
n ss and its income from year to year with a steady
growth ;ne great source of its security is the wide
ilisiributiou of its risks—a j'olicy which it pursues
w:th gre.at strictne.s.s—limiting the .'imonnt to be cov
ered in each locality. By this course it has jiassed,
witli Comparative im{iunity, tlirough bome of the most
sweeping ai.d destructive hres, wiiicli have sw;tllowed up
other ciinpanies less cautious in their business. It is
a s\.-'teni like tliis, based upon e.'cjierience, which gives
St iliility an J s"unduess to a coiiip.iiiy, .anJ to the us-
*^ured coiifi ience and secnritv.—iinliimorf Patriot.
