An exchange contains the advertise ment of a merchant who oilers special in ducements to farmers whero they club together and puchase a dozen ploughs at u time. Similar advertisements, ad dressed to the Patrons of Husbandry, aro freqent in the Ohio papers. Now this is not unreasonable on the part of tho merchant, and on the part of | the manufacturer, it is especially- advan tageous. Nobody eapezi* %hc imt&t of | wholesale prices on retail purchases, be cause they readily utdcrstunrl that it cannot be granted, at the same time it clearly demonstrates that it is not only possible for clubs or societies acting in concert, to effect a reduction of the ex penses of its fcrJivid?a! members, but that almost at the first intimfition of such co-operation, the former begins to expe rience its advantages. Wo might cite numberless instances/ A farmer's Club at Roanoke, Long Is land, has for several years/ purchased for it* members large quantities of fertili zers each season, securing tlfe lowest rates andgKarding them against fraud and imposition. Another in Massachusetts has at several different tfrftes, introduced improved stock in its neign'bori'Ootfv in deed, this bos bee* done often in all of the cider States. Others unite for the purchase of seeds. Aac? for whatever purpose they may wish to proSfitote, it is invariably found thac, as a whole, t&ey work more effectually town caa the* rn dividual member. Wifi& flfrese pltoin facts be&re the tanners, is ft net) singu lar that they make no efforts- for the or ganization of neighborhood! clubs; pre ferring generally to tie themselves to the merchant who pays nrs- price for their products, and charges- ??s prrce- for tAeir supplies.?[American Farmer's Advo cate, ?

So when tUty cutii? up with the boys, they stopped and spHjko very pleasantly to them, and Invited them to, turn back and go with them to the Sun day School. Roland points.to the pret ty Church, which looks so inviting off at j it piiort distance, and tells him all about | the happy times they have there?of their, good teachers and beautiful books. The 1 boys say they db not Want to go to Sun day School, but w?tlld fdther go to the riVer and sail their' boats. But Roland! and Mary arc m earnest, and will not giVe up. "Just go to-day/* Roland said; "to see how very pleasant, and cheerful our school is." After much persuading, tlie boys said they would go once, just to seo how they did at Sunday School. When they en tered the Church, the children Were sing ing a beautiful hymn. Jack and Frank thought they had never beard any music so sweet, nor seen children look half so happy. After the song was finished, the two boys went with Rol/Jnd to his class; and listened very attentively to the teach er as he told them of the wonderful Sa viour, how He died to save us, and of] His goodness and mercy toward ?s. They were so well pleased that they felt sorry when the bell was tapped for tlie school to close. The teacher spoke kindly to theftt and asked them to come again next Sunday, tthiclt they did. And for many other Sundays they came, and they grew tip at last to be good and useful men. Now children, don't you suppose Roland and Mary wero happy in doing good ?

Irtbo^d W?>ill fttywlH Km uui: Insuriko Youu Life or Accepting the Agency or axt Compass READ THIS FOLLOWING ? A lennthened exporience has dettonietrated that tlie rates of Premium ordinarily charged Life lni?urantre Conipanic* arc from twenty-live U> thirty per cent, in excess of what are neces4ar> for a wife and legitimate conduct of the busineap. In other wonb>, latrefullv and prudently man aged Companies charging "Mutual" rates have been able to return U> thefr pol icy-holders front So to 80 per cent, of tho amount charged for premiums. When Lifo Insurance Compar ics were first organized, the reliability of the data upen which the premiums were constructed had not undergone the test of experience. It was thought, then fore, no more than common prudence to ?dopt a scale of premiums which-would, in any eventi meet nil the presumed and uaforseen contingencies of the buMincsp. As long as the matter wns involved in some doubt, it was better to fix the rate too high than to incur the risk of ranking it toe low; because, in the foin.er case^ the error could be easilv reme died, ut le:u?t in part, by returning to th? policy-holder*, at certain intervals, such portions of tho premium charged as was found unnecessary lor tho purposes of the business and the complete security of the Company. Experience, howuver, having satisfactorily demonstrated that these rates are excessive, what possible excuse can there be for maintaining them ? Availing themselves of this experience, the Directors and Mannger* of the Unircrtul Life /?? suranee Company at its organisation, adopted a scalo of premiums in accordance therewith', and which has proved tobe fair and adequate, and all that was necessary to meet the requirements of tho business. These premiums aro about twenty-five per cent, lower than those charged by Mil* lual Companies. It also appeared, inasmuch as the rates so established were as near as could possibly be deter* ! mined fair rates, and not in excess of what Immrtnco has previously, cost the policy-holders in Mutual Companies, that any profits arising from prudent munngeincnt justly and properly be longed to tko stockholders of the Company, for the risk incurred by them in undertaking the business. Experience has shown that there arc sources of profit in the practice of the business.whicfl theory will not admit of being considered as elements in the calculation of the premiums These result from a saving in the mortality of the members of a Company owing to tlie mcdiral ?eler* rion of good lives, again in interest on the investments 0f tho Company over that a<sumed irt the calculation of its prcmiuma, the profits derivable from the lapsing aiid surrender of Policies by the members, and from other minor sources. b , " Profits from these Bources, In a company possessed of a capital of $200,000, and doing a faif amount of business, would give to the stockholders dividends largely in excess of what were counted on by the Directors of the Universal it tlie time of its organisation. They have, there1 fore, determined to divide among the policy holders of tlie Compajuy-a large pari of the profits accruing from tlie sources named, all of which have heretofore been divided among the stock* holders. i cio?a*?_ *MH Tho plan adopted tor snch dividends is as follows: Every person who may hereafter issyre with die Lfmrrrwd will, for the purpose of division, ba treated os a j-.tockholder to tlie extent of one Annual Premium upon his Policy; ami tritt ?Aere in the j sains extent as a Stockholder owing on equal amount of the capital i._. By this system of Insurance, original with tho Universal, tho policy-holder secures the follow ing important advantages: Annual Premium ui>on his Policy; anil trill share in the profits of the Company to precisely the e extent as a Stockholder owing on equal amount tff the capital stock. >y this system of Insurance, original with tho Universal, tho policy-holder secures the follow. c, important advantages: { ? . . . ?:.fi%,. . . First. Insurance at the regular "Sto??' rcte*, requiring a primary Outlay of about trenty to thirty per cent, lest than tltut charged by Mutual Companies, and which is equivalent .to n yearly "dividend" paid in advance of that amount on mutual rates. This low cost of insurance Is worthy of attention. Sine? its orgnnitntion this company bos received in premiums, from Ho "dividend" of $483,000, and paid it, too, in adrance, instead of at the end of one or more years. It is impossible to lind any example of a Mutual Company furnishing Insurance at so low a cost by reluming to its policy-holders an equal amount upon similar receipts. Second. Participation in the legitimate profits qf the. Company, upon a plan vhicl, ?teures U the poliry-hoUler* the same treatment which Directors ana Stockholders atrard to themfclres. This system of participation, in connection with tlie low *'f<tock" rates of premium, moht necessarily secure to the policy-holders every advantage to be derived from prudent and careful uianngemont. The low rates of premium compel economy, and, independent of participation, guarantee to tho policy-holder his insurance at a ratr, which is not in excess of the cost in well managed ihutnai eompaniesr while, by the proposed plan of participation in what may be considered the legiti mate profits of the business, the cost will be still further diminished: Thus bv the combined advantages arising from low stock rak- ?nd participation in the profits it is confidently believed that the UNIVERSAL LUE INSURANCE COMPANY oflcrs in surance at its lowest practicable cost. gkjyTho^ of the existing Policy-holders who desire toparticipate in the Profits under tho rrw Plan can do so by making application to tho Head Ollice, or to any of the Agents of die Con*. * '?he company is in a sound financial comlitism, Hatto nf Aestts to Liabilities 140 to 100, ?SfirGOOD RELIABLE AGENTS WA?TED, who will deal direct *hh the New YbrV Office, and to" Whom full General Affew*V Commissions will be paid. f M.
