Tliose re.^iiits iniicate that dr.ring the period of nearly
f'rt_\ _\e:irs since its oreaniiation, (without a single
change of it-i chief nthcer,) its business has been con
duct' d witli judgment and prudence. It has been
tiiii-1 fir sui-ce>isful in an eminent degree, discharging,
ft*, rtc lire informed, all its obligations by the payment
ot .1 ut ten ? ullwii dollurf lor losses, vrithout askiug a
diiy's delay in any instance. It has hai but liille lit-
iira'.i' D, notwithstanding the immense number oftrans-
iioti >ns made. In order to attain as much certainty as
prnsible in sisch 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 ascertain
the amount insured on each class, the amount of pre-
nnums received thereon, anJ the amount of looses up
• n each. This classification, extending over a long
peri'»d,nnd covering property to a very large amount,fur
nishes reliable data, and presents a sound, substantial
bu.'is of actual experience, upon which to conduct its
bu.'iuess. Insur.'ince is not a mutter of luck or chance,
ni;iny suppose; its hazards are ascertainable, and
its principles capable of heinjj reduced to a system, the
prai ticdl working :tnd results of which are as certain
a-* t!iat of any other business The *Ktna Company,
by ttlht-ring rigidly to its system, and placing its busi-
n. u{. n a healthy basis, has obtained the confidence
ct the cummunity to an extent surpassed by no other
I iiipany in the U. iitates, and has increased its Lusi-
Di'-' an i its income from year to year with a steady
gr owth, tine great source of its security is the wide
disirihiuiou of its risks—a p«Iicy which it pursues
W tii Krent “trit^tness—limiting the amount to be cov-
ei>-d in each loc.ality. liy this course it has passed,
w.!ii c iinpara:ive impunity, through some of the m'ist
t)W*‘rping and destructive fires, which have swallowed up
otiier f.inip inies less cautious in their business. It is
a system like this, based upon experience, which gives
btuoiiity anl soundness to a company, and to the as-
Kured contiJence and securitv.—B'lltunor* I'atriot.

J E would call the attention of persons afllicted
with Chi'Is and Fevers to this celebr.aed Pill,
which owes its popularity to no putHiiK, nor to long,
windy certificates—but solel}’ tcj its own merits as x
remedy which never fails to cure when taken accord
ing to liirections .iccompanying eacii box. This Pill,
unlike many others, contains no mineral, nor uny in
jurious ingredient, and may be administered with jier-
t'ect safety at all times, to young or old.
As a preventive against ('hiltS; or an*" other tj’pe of
Fever, it is recommended as mK-ojrpasscd; and in tre.at-
ment of Fevers generally it is far superior to Quinine
or any preparation of I'eruv'an bark. .A tri.il of its
merits is all that is needed to insure it a favorable
position in the estimation of (ven tlie most inveterate
opposer of Pioprietary or Patent prescriptions.

Number 3 is a new and revised edition ol the North
Carolina Reader, first published in 18.31. Numtiers 1
and 2 just issued, complete the series, which is, as a
whole, cheaper than any other series of Readers in the
United States, and as complete.
The Editor (Prof. Hubbard; in his Preface to Num
ber 1 deems it proper to aliu(letoH tew of the peculiar
advantages aimed at by the Superintendent of Common
Schools while making ellorts to have this w^ork com
pleted. These are,
1. The encourayfment ')/ a Jeliuy of neij-depaidence,
and the enlistment of popular sentiment in behalf 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 remedi/ the ecil everywhere cotnptiined nf in com-
1K0H schooLi, oj (I perpt!iUiil chuitye in text booka; an ex
pensive habit, aud one which injures the Schools l)v
preventing the children Irom being classified. .A se
ries of home lieader."', it was supposed, woulu be cer
tainly used, an t this great evil thus avoided.
o, Eonumy, ttJe jtojmlar system of Reader." being
too long aud iieing made so often merely to add to
the profits of authors aud publishers.
This series is to consist of fewer numbers than
those genfrally use.i, aud it is believed that these
numbers are suificieut, while if tn** bystem were uni
versally used iu the State, the sum saved to parents
and children would amount to seveia.1 thousand dollars
annually.
4, To put in the kands of children tfarniny t'. read com-
poxiiions sujHciently fiiindiar hut not of the rknntcter callcd
chddinh compositions, conlainiug, in lessons *-u?y e^iough
for ail age.-!, correct sjieciniena of style, ii.teresiing in
mattt-r, and incuicatiug proper morals, aud religious
instruction.
The prices are, for No. 1, 25 cents; No. 2, 37j cents
and No. S, To cents. A liberal deduction trom these
prices to Msrchants and School Teachers.
