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.

F. PB.HRt'E.] **KAKCK, JR July 30. 29-tf 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. iivl’M lASlRlM'h HAK Ul'ORD, CONN.
