WE refer our readers to the annual statement of the .liitna Insurance Company, of Hartford, which will be found in another column. This success ful institution was incorporated by the Legislature of Connectic.’t in 181H, with a perpetual charter. Its capital is ^ii500,000, and its accumulations exceed ^S00,000 more, making its entire assets ever :^300,- (•00, invested as detailed in the statement referred to These results indicate that during the period of nearly forty years since its organization, (without a single change of its chief officer,) its business has been con ducted with judgment and prudence. It has been thus far successful in an eminent degree, discharging, as we are informed, all its obligations by the payment of about ten million dollars for losses, without asking a liay’s delay iu any instance. It has had but little lit igation, notwithstanding the immense number of trans actions made. In order to attain as much cerlainfi/ as possible in such a business as insurance, it has been the practice of the Company’, for several years, at great labor, carefully to classify and arrange their risks into about fifty distinct classes, so as to ascerUiin the amount insured on each class, the amount of pre miums receivvd thereon, anJ the amount of losses up on each. This classification, extending over a long period,and covering property to a very large amount,fur nishes reliable data, and presents a sound, substantial basis of actual experience, upon which to conduct its business. Insurance is not 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 -Etna Company, by adhering rigidly to its system, aud 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 year to year with a steady growth. One great source of its security is the wide distributiou of its risks—a policy which it pursues 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 other companies less cautious in their business. It is a system like this, based upon experience, which gives stability and soundness to a company, and to the as sured confidence and security. — lialtnuort Patriot. Ui A{.ri’. 1. \V. U.

U II.Kl Number 3 is a new aud revised edition of the North Carolina Reader, tirsi published in lfS51. Numbers 1 au'l 2 just issued, complete the series, which is, as a , whole, cheaper than atiy other series of Readers in the > United States, and as complete. I The Editor ^Prof. HubL.ird) in his Preface to Num ber I deems it pioper to allude to a few of the peculiar advantages aimed at by the Superiiitendeut of Common Schools while making ellorts to have this work com pleted. These are, 1. The encoiirayeiiifnt nf a Jeihny of .nlj-dt^endi nee, ami the enlistiueut of popular sentiuiont in tiehalf of the State and its institutions. It was not thought im portant, however, to have more than one number of the Readers of merely a local interest. 2 To nmeili/ the evil everywhere coinplahie.il of in com mon schools, of a jter^ittual chanyt in text books; an ex pensive habit, and one which injures the Schools by preventing the children from being classified. A se ries of home Readers, it was supposed, would be cer tainly used, and this great evil thus avoided. 3, Economy, the popular system of Readers being too long and being made so often merely to add to the profits of authors and publishers. This series is to consist of fewer numbers than those generally used, and it is believed that these numbers are suflicient, while if the system were uni versally used in the State, the sum saved to parentjs aud chiblren would amount to several thousand dollars annually. 4, To put in the kands of children learniny t> read com- [losition.f siitficiently familiar but not oj the character called childish compositions, containing, in lessons easy enough for all ages, correct specimens of style, interesting in matter, aud inculcating proper morals, aud religious instruction. The prices are, for No. 1, 25 cents: No. 2, 37J cents and No. 3, 75 cents. -A libe-al deduction from these prices to Merchants and Schcol Teachers. E. J. HALE Si SON. Roscoe’s Crim.
