C. MYUTI.E MANSE, November 29,1871. IniSH BULLS.-The IriBh, rightly or wrongly, (?et credit for almost all the bulla that go the rounds of the papers. It was an Irishman who wanted to find a pl .oe where there was no death, that he might go and end his days there. It was an Irishman editor that exclaimed, when speaking of the wrongs of Ireland, "Her oup of misery has been for ages overflowing, and is not yet foll." It was an Irish newspaper that said of Robe? spierre that "be left no children behind him except a brother, who was killed at the Barns time." It was an Irish coroner who, when .asked how he ucoonnted for an extraordinary mortality in Limerick, replied, sadly: "I cannot tell. There are people dying this year that never died before." It was an Irish hand bill that announced, with boundless liberal? ity, in reference to a great political de? monstration in the Rodundu, that "Ladies, without distinction of sex, would bo welcome." Sir Boyle Roche said: "Single misfortunes never come alone, and the greatest of all possible misfortunes is generally followed by a muon greater." An eminent spirit mer? chant in Dublin annonnoes in an Trish pape.r, that he has still a small quantity of tho whiskey on hand which was draak by Qeorge IV, when Dahlia. Surprise parties are very pleasant things, if properly understood. But if they are mistaken for anything else, tho consequences are apt.to be a trifle awk? ward, to say the least. A large company of ladies and gentlemen in Bridgeport, Conn., arranged one of these parties the other night, and oarried with them an unlimited quantity of provisions, expect? ing to have a fino supper. But the lady surprised, supposed the affair to be a sort of donation visit, and very cooli j deposited the good things in the pantry. The party waited until 3 A. M. for sup? per to be ready, bat no signs of the pre? paration being visible, they departed as "hungry as bears," and are likely to have their next party better understood. A new submarine cable has been suc? cessfully laid from Nagasaki, Japan, to Possiette Bay, at tho month of tho Arno or River. At the latter point con? nection is made with the Groat North? ern Telegraph Company, which has lines across Siberia and Russia, uniting with the general European system. This route is at present the only one by which messages cun be sent direct to Japan, BB the cabio watweon Shanghai and Naga? saki is interrupted. Bead1. Read!! Read'.!1. STATE CAPITOL RESTAURANT.

MONTAGUE, Actuary. E. W. LAMBERT, M. D.. Medical Examiner. THIS COMPANY offers the following IMPORTANT ADVANTAGES to thoee about EFFECTING INSURANCE ON THEIR LIVES: 1. Insurance at Stook Ratea, being from 20 to 30 per cent, less than tbe rates charged bj mutual companies. 2. Each Policy-holder ia regarded as a Stockholder to tho extent of ono Annual Premium on his Polioy, and will ehare in tho Profita of tho Compauy to tho ?arno extent aa a Stock? holder owning an cqnal amount of the Capital Stock. 8. Every Polioy iueuea by the Company ia non-forfeitablo, and oontaina a .'clause ?tating ita exaot Surrender Yalue. Before Insuring your Life or accepting the Agency of any Company, HKAD THE FOLLOW I?? OJ A lengthened experience baa demonstrated that tho ratea ot premium ordinarily charged by lifo inenrance companies are from twenty-five to thirty per cunt, in excess of what are ne? cessary for a safe aud legitimate conduct of tho business. In other words, carefully and prudently-managed companies charging "mutual" ratea have been able to roturn to their policy-holders from 25 to SO per cent, of the amount charged for premiums. When life Insurance companies were first orgauized, reliability of the data upon which pre? miums wero constructed had not undergone teat of exporienco. lt waa thought, therefore, no moro thau common prudence to adopt a scale of premiums which would, in any event, moot all tho presumed and unforeaeen oontingenoiea of the business. Aa long as the mattor waa involved in socio doubt, it wae hotter to fix the rate too high than to incur the risk of making it too low; because, in the farmer caso, the error could bo easily remedied, at least iu part, by returning to the policy-holders, at oertain intervals, auch portion of the premium charged aa waa found necessary for tho purposes of tho business and tho completo security of tho company. Exporionco, ho wovor, having satisfactory demonstrated that tbeso ratos are excessive, what possible excuso can there be for maintaining them? Availing themaclvcB of thia cxperlenco, the Directors and Managers of tho Universal Life Insurance Company, at ita organization, adopted a seato of premiums in accordance there? with, and which baa provea to be fair and adequato, and all that waa necessary to mcot the requirements of the business. Thcee premiums aro about twenty-five per cent, lower than thoao charge by mutual conipaneis. It also appeared, inasmuch aa tho ratea BO established were aa m ar aa could possibly bo determined f ir rates, and not in exceea of what insurance han previously cost the policy? holders in mutual companies, that any profits arising iron.{prudent management justly and properly bolonged to tho stockholders of tho compauy, for tho risk incurred by them in undertaking tho business. Experience haa abown that thero are sources of profit in the practice of the business which theory will not admit of being considered aa clements in the calculation of tho premiums. Thoao reeults form a saving in the mortality of the mcnibirs of a company owing to the me? dical eeleotion of good lives, a gain in interest on the m ve?-true nt H of the company over that assumed in the calculation of ita premiums, the profits derivable from tho lapsing and sur? render of policies by tho members, and from other minor sources. Profita from these sources, in a company possessed of a capita1 of (200,000, and doing a fair amount of business, would givo to the etookholdera dividends largely in excess of what wero counted on by tho Directors nf ibu Universal at the time of ita organization. '1 hey have, therefore, determined to divide among tho policy-holders of tho company a largo part of tho profits accruing from tho sources named, all of which havo heretofore been divided among tho stockholders. The plan adopted for auch division is BB follows: Every person who may hereafter ineure with tho U?iiversal will, for the purposes of division, be treated aa a stockholder to extent of one annual premium upon II?B policy; ?no! rcill share in the profils of the Company to precisely the same extent as a Stockholder owning an equal amount of the Copiial Stock. By thia system of insurance, original with the Universal, the policy-holder secures tko fol wing important advantages: 1. Insurance at the regular "stock" rates, requiring a primary outlay of about twenty to thirty per cent, leas than that charged by mutual companies, and which is ( qnivalent to,a yearly ''dividend" paid in : dvance of that amount on mutual rat CB. 'ibis low coat of insur? ance ia worthy of attention. Since its organization, thia company baa received in premiums from its policy-holders the sum of $1,617,000. To effect the name amount nt insurance in a mutual company wonld have coat them an initial outlay of 12 000.000 By allowing ita policy holders to retain, in their own possession, this excess of $463,000, tho Uni vernal baa virtually paid them a "dividend" of $483,000. and paid lt, too, in advance, instead of at tho end of one or more yeara. It ia impossible to find any example cf a mutual company (urnibbing insur? ance at so low a coat by returning to policy holders an equal amount upon similar receipts. 2. Participation in the legitimate profita of the company, upon a plan which secures to the policy-holders the same treatment which directora and stockholders award to themaelvea. Thia Bystom of participation, in connection willi tho low "Block" ratee of premiums, muet necessarily seenro to the policy-holders every possible advantage to be derived from prudent and careful management. The low ratea of premium compel economy, and, independent of participation, guarantee to the policy-holder bia insnrance at a rate which ia not iu excess of the coat in well managed mutual companiee; while, by the proposed plan of participation in what may be considered tho legitimato profits of tho business, tho coat will bo still further diminished. i bus by the combined advantages arising from low atock rato and participation in profits, it ia confidently believed the UNIVERSAL LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY offers insurance al Its lowest practicable cost. es-Those of the existing policy-holders who desire to participate io profits under the new plan eau do so by making application to the head ellice, or to any agenta of the company. The Company is in a sound financial condition. Ratio of Assets to Liabilities 136 to 100.

Oct 8 The Brooklyn ?ife Insurance Company, OF NEW TORE. Paid Up Gash Capital and Assets Two Millions Dollars. -o CHRISTIAN W. BOUCK, President. I W. M. COLE, Secretary. W. H. WALLACE, Vioo-Preaident. D. PA BKS FACKLE lt, Actuary. OFFICE NO. 141 BROADWAY, NEW YORK. JOHN E. BACON, W. P. BUTLER, General Agents and Managers for South Carolina and Augusta, Georgia. AS General AgentB, we take pleasure in presenting this well known and responsible Com' pany to the public, and in recommending it nt first class in every way. We might add much more on this subject, but, being Interested as ita Agents, prefer to apeak through dis? interested parties. Therefore, read and digest the following notices-among many others from both Northern and Southern papers, as to the virtues of this Company: There ia no better company in tho land. A comparison with other corporations of a simi? lar character will convince all of the superior safety in taking risks with the Brooklyn Life. [Cotumltus, Go., Bun, January 27.1809. The Brooklyn Life has placed itself in the vanguard of insurance reform, and is the first > company that has done full justice to tho insured, Ac. [ /??tironee Times, New York, January, 18C9. This gi eat feature of cash surrender values is an important improvement that signalizes tho era of insnrance.-Haleigh Sentinel, N. C. This plan-guaranteed surrender values-removes tbs sole objection existing to making an application for inanrauce. Each policy becomes a piece of negotiable paper, as easily trans? ferred as a Government bond -Boston, Mass., Fost, 18C9. A policy in tho Brooklyn Life is worth so much in ready money. This is the only life com? pany that has carried tbie excellent feature into boniness. [Dispatch. St. Louis, ito., January 7,18ft). Wo call especial attention to this distinctive and advantageous feature of guaranteed sur render value, particularly characteristic of the Brooklyn Life. And also to the faot that there are no classes in the Brooklyn Life: all fare aliko, whether from tho North, South, East or West. Also, we direct the attention of the public to tho fact that policies can bo obtained in this Company, owing to its careful management and superior advantages, at lower rates than in any other company of equal rank aud solvency in America.
