Many will find pleasure in reading tho fol? lowing verses, additional to Moore's sweet melody. Wo nave been permitted to copy them from the manuscript oolteotione of a gentlemen of high cultivation. The author of the verses, onae a member of the Edge field (B. 0.) bar, is now the devoted pastor of St. Paul's Ohuroh, Augusta, Ga. We think bis additional stanzas uavo never been pub? lished before; but even had they been, the meek consolation they afford-a fitting olimax to the pathetic sentiment of the poet-makes them well worthy of re-publication: Yet hope, in tones of Iovo, My sinking soul sustaining, Oft.pointa to spheres above, And bids me oeaso complaining; The smiles, the tears, Of former years, In those bright realms shall meet me; And there the friend. Whose timoloBs end Bad memory weeps, shall greet mo. Thus oft at midnight hour, Ere slumber's chain hath bound me, Kind hope dispels the gloom Bad memory sprouts around me. Some of the Shoshone Indians are vory mad, because the Central Paoifio j Railroad won't let them ride on the pas? senger trains free of oh argo. We should be afraid to fool with those Indian?, for, if they take it into their heads to boil down a few eeotion-hands and grease the rails with the pot-liquor, they are going to do it. ? very wioked Connecticut man, being recently taken ill, and believing ho was about to die, told a neighbor that he felt the need of preparation for the next world, and would like to see some proper ?ierson in regard to it; whereupon tho j eeling friend sent for an insurance agent.

The Brooklyn Life has placed iteelt in the vanguard of insurance reform, and is the first company that hae done full justice to the insured, Ac. I Insurance Times, New York, January, 1869. Thia great feature of each surrender values is an important improvement that signalizes tho era of insurance.-Baleigh Sentinel, JV. C. Thia plan-gnaranteed surrender vsJces- removes the tole objection existing tc miking an application for insurance. Each policy becomes a piece of negotiable paper, as easily trans? ferred as a Government bond.-Boston, Mass., Fost, 18l>9. A policy in the Brooklyn Life is worth so much in ready money. Thia is the only Ufo com? pany that has carried this excellent feature into boniness. [Dispatch. St. Louis, Mo., January 7,1869.

FURBER. vice-President. JOHN Q. BEWLEY. Secretary. GEORGE L. MONTAGUE, Actuar?. E. W. LAMBERT, M. D., Medical Examiner. THIS COMPANY offers the following IMPORTANT ADVANTAGES to those about EFFECTING INSURANCE ON THEIR LIVES : 1. Insurance at Stock Ratos, being from 20 to 30 per cent, less than the rates charged by mutual companies. 2. Each Policy-holder is regarded a* a Stockholder to the extent of one Annual Premium on bis Policy, aud will share in the profits ot the Company to the same extent as a Stock? holder owning an equal amount of thc Capital Mock. 3. Every Policy issued bv the Cum pa nv i* non-lorfeitable, and contains a claise elating its exact Surrender Value. Before Insuring your Li/e or accepting thc Agency of any Company, It K A li Tilt: FOLLOWING : A lengthened experience has demonstrated that the rates ol premium ordinarily charged by lifo insurance companies aro from twenty-live to thirty per cent, in excess of what aro necessary for a safe and legitimate conduct (if the business. In other words, carefully and prudently-managed companies charging "mutual" rates have been able to return to their policy-holders from tweuty-flvo to thirty per cent, of tho amount ?barged for premiums. When life insurance companies were first organized, reliability of the data upon which pre? miums were constructed had not undergone tent of experience. It waa thought, therefore, no more than common prudence to adopt a seule of premiums which would, in any event, meet all the presumed and unforeseen contingencies ol the boniness. As long as the matter was involved in some doubt, it was bettor to fix tho rate too high than to incur the lisk of making it too low; because, in tho former caso, tbe error could bo easily remedied, at least in part, by returning to the policy-holders, at certain intervals, such por? tion of the premium charged as wa- found t;c< c.-ra ry fur the .jurposes of (ho business and tho complete security of tho comp my. Experience, however, having satisfactorily demonstrated that these ratea aro excessive, what possible excuse can there be fur maintaining them? Availing themselves of this experience, the Dir? dora and Managers of tho Universal Life Insurance Comjmny, at its organization, adopted u scale ol premiums io accordance there? with, and which has proved to bo fair and ?ul ipiate, and all that wa? necessary to meet the requirements ol tho business. Tin s?- pu minni? ;?r<- about twenty-five per cent, lower than those charged by mutual oom pa liles. It also appeared, inasmuch as tho rate., so established were as near as could possibly be detormihod/ittV rales, and not in excess of what insurance has previously cist the policy, holders in mutual companies, that suv profits arising from prudent management justly and properly belonged to the stockholders*of the company, foi- the risk incurred by tnem in un? dertaking the business. Experience has ?hewn that there are sources ?.! pi oil t in the practice ol the business which theory will not admit of being outlaid) nd sn ? hum HIM in the calculation ol the premiums. Those results form a saving in the mortality of lite un-uibora ol a company owing to the me? dical selection of good lives, a gain in inter?s' on the investments of the company over that assumed tn the calculation of its premium*, Hie profits d< livable from tho lapsing und sur? render of policies by the members, niel (rom oilier minor sources. Profits from these sources, in a company pos?rs?od <>t a capital of ?200.000, and doing a fair amount ot business, would give t<; the stockholders dividend* largely in exceso nt what wer? couutcd on by the Directors of the If" MK ? sn' ut the lime ni its organisation. They have, therefore,determined to divide aiming th. polio*'.holders of the company a largo part of tho profits accruing from tho sources named, all of which have heretofore neon divided among tbe stockholders. The plan adopted ?or each division is as follows: Every person who may hereafter iuanro with tho Universal will, for tho purposes of division, be treated as a stockholder to extent of ono annual premium upon his policy; and mil; share in the profits of the Company to j>recisely the same extent as a Stockholder owning an equal amount of the Capital Stock By this system of insurance, original with the Unioersai, the policy-holders secure tho fol? lowing important advantages: 1. IuHurunce at the regular "stock" rates, requiring a primary outlay of about twenty.to thirty per cent, less than that charged by mutual companies, and which is equivalent to a yearly "divideno" paid in advance ol that amount on mutual rates. This low cost ot insur? ance is worthy of attention. Since its organization, thin company has received in premium* from its policy-holders the mm <>i ?1,517,(00. To effect the same amount of insurance in a mutual company would have cost them au initial uiitla> of $2.000,000. By allowing its policy? holders to retain, in their own possession, this excess of ?-183,000, the Universal has virtually paid them a ''dividend"of ?483,000, and paid it, too, in advance, instead of at the end of one or more j oars It is itnpoeeiblfl to find any example nf a mutual company furnishing insur? ance at so low a coat by returning to policy-holders au equal amount upon similar receipts. 2. Participation in the legitimate profits of tho company, upon a plan which secures to tho policy-holders the same treatment which directors and otnckholders award to themselves. Phis system of participation, in connection with thc low "stock" rates nf premiums, must necessarily secure to the pol I oj-li ol do rn every possible advantage to be derived from prudent and careful managt nient. The low rat? H of premium compel economy, mid, independent of participation, guarantee ?it ?I.i i i?H?: -holder los insurance ut a rst< which i- HM in excess of the coat in well managed i i ni it i . iiip.tniig; while byllu i-i'<ip:Mi-d plan I participation in what may be considered the li gu ima to prolits i ! she bn?>i' . - r i he coi-i i? i'i i <. ??till fm t her diminished.
