The unequalled work of Mr. Phillips on the Law of Evidence has long been acknowledged. This edition has undergone a thorough revision by Mr. Edwards, and has received an immense amount of labor, and is now as nearly perfect as can be made. Tlie American labor and talent bestowed upon the work are not less than that derived from the English source. The immortal notes of Messrs. Cowen & Hill, together with those of Mr. Van Cott, have been care fully preserved; aud instead of being put in a volume by themselves, as formerly, they are now placed below tiie I text—a disposition of them which will very much faci- ; litate reference. The entire note and text are arranged , iu three conijuict volumes, with a table of cases, and an ' extremely full iudex to each.

HISTORICAL AND CHRONOLOGICAL TABLES. And a variety of Miscellaneous Information aud Sta- c. tistics, by MM. ^^MMjBW V] UMBER 3 is a new aud revised edition of the North Carolina Reader, first published in I80I. Numbers 1 and 2 just issued, complete tJie series, which i.s, us a whole, cheaper than any other .series of Readers in the United States, and as complete. Tiie Editor (Prof. Hubbard) in his Preface to Num ber 1 deems it proper to alliule to a few of the peculiar advantages aimed at by the Superintendent of Common Schools while making efforts to have this work com pleted. These are, 1. The encuuniyement of a feeling of self-dependence, and the enlistment of popular sentiment in behalf of the State and its institutions. It was not thottght important, how ever, to have more than one number of tiie Reader of merely a local interest. 2. To remedy the evil everywhere comphtinrd rf in com mon tchools, of a perpetual chanye in text bookx; an expen sive habit, and one which injures the Sctiools by pre venting the children from being classified. .V series of home Readers, it was su[iposed, would be certainly used, and this great evil thus avoided. 8. Econumy, the popular system of Headers 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 numt>ers than those generally used, and it is believed that these numbers are sufficient, while if the systeni were universally used id the State, the sum saved to parents aud children woi In amount to several thousand dollars annually. 4. To put in the handf of children learning to read com- pofitionn atiffieiently familiar hut not of the character called childish compositions, containing, in lessons easy enough for all ages, correct specimens ot style, interesting in matter, and inculcating proper morals, and religious in struction. The prices are, for No. 1, 25 cents; No. 2, 37J cents and No. 3, 76 cents. A liberal deduction from these prices to Merohants and School Teachers. £. J. HALE & SON. D. & W.

WE refer our readers to the annual statement of tli« .£tna Insurance Company, of Hartford. This suc cessful institution was incorporated by the Legislature of Connecticut in 1819, with a perpetual charter. It® capital is $50U,000, and its accumulations exceed jSH' iO.- 000 more, making its entire assets over §1,:?OU,UOU, in vested 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 conducted with judgiuent and prudence. It has been thus far success ful in an eminent degree, discharging, as we are in formed, all its obligations by the payment of about tt-n million dollars for losses, without asking a day's delay in any instance. It has had but little litigation, notwith standing the immense number of transactions made. In order to attain as much certainty 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 ascertain the amount insured ou each class, the amount of premiums received thereon, and the amount of losses upon each. This classification, extend ing over a long period, and covering property to a very large amount, furnishes reliable data, and presents a sound, substantial basis of actual experience, upim which to conduct its business. Insurance is not a matter of luck or chance, as many suppose; its hazards are ascer tainable, and its principles capable of being reduced to a system, the practical working and results of whioh are as certain as that of any otner business. The .ttaa Company, by adhering rigidly to its system, and placing its business upon a healthy basis, has obtained the coii fidence of the community to an extent surpassei by 110 other Company iu the U. Slates, and has increased its business and its income from year to year with a steady growth. One great source of its security is tlic wide distribution of its risks—a policy which it pursues with great strictness—limiting tiie amount to be cuvered in each locality. By this cour.se it ham passed, with om- parative impunity, tlirough some of the most sweeping and destructive tires, which have swallowed up otiier companies less cautious in their liusiness. It is a .system like this, based upon experience, which gives stabiliiy and soundness to a company, and to the assured con fidence and security.—Baltimore Patriot. jji^.\gent of the above Company at Fayetteville, E.
