la especially noteworthy la respect to the busi
ness of 1870. Ia the revulsion ot last year this
company not only maintained the position It
had previously gained, but it developed a
stiength and a capacity to accumulate, by which
it takes higher rauk in the future, 'the Phicnlx
it richer and better for the results of 1370. As
we write, Its Income is at the rate of three mil
lions per annum. Last year, after returning
more than a million to policy holders for claims,
dividends, and surrendered policies, it added
more than a million to its asset, and in the
details of the latter we notice an addition during
the year of over half a milium to the mortiraue
Investments. To illustrate the growth of 1370,
we place side bv side some of the aggregates of
1800 and 1570, viz .:

Conditions being equal, the greater the busi
ness progress of a life oilico the greater its
prosperity. There is nothing succeeds like suc
cess; for in a successful DuMness there is a
wealth which cannot be figured up in the ac
counts. The foregoing columns reveal not only
the gain of advancing business, bat a greater
gain In financial soundness, and show that the
liberal conditions under which the I'hnenix ad
ministers life insurance can be claimed at the
true elements of the practice of it.
We have noticed, on the part of this office, a
recognition of the duty incumbent upon the In
surer to free the insured from as many contin
gencies as practicable to make the policy a
validity under the changing circumstances of
life. This commends the ofliec to intelligent
applicants for iut-urance, for tho feeling is grow
ing wilh the public that there Is a necessity that
the policy be trustworthy as well as that the
company be sound.
The statement that a human being dies at each
second of time condenses the death-roll of hu
manity. As the dark tide sweeps on over our own
country each day brings its new mourners. To
some of these life insurance gives its aid and
hope. We have not as yet the exact figures,
but the facts as they are gleaned show that each
hour of every passing day life insurance comes
to fulfil its mission to one bereft family of the
land. The full statistics will reveal a still
greater proportion. Before the power of such a
ministration all cavils, doubts, and aspersions
sink to less than nothingness. Tho benefitted
are coming like a gathering host; their influ
ence will largely make the life insurance of the
future. In the work of the present the Phoenix
does its part well so well, that in the larger
service of the future we anticipate for it a
greater proportionate share.
NI SItAL AND DUAniTIC.
"'Twlxt Axe ami Crown" at the Walnut.
Twif Axe and Crown ia tho rather ponder
ous and awkward title of Mr. Tom Taylor's
latest and most ambitious dramatic effort, which
was produced at the Walnut last evening with
much success, Miss Ella Burns, a young aspi
rant for dramatic honors, being the representa
tive of the heroine "Elizabeth," daughter of
Henry VIII, and afterwards Queen of England.
Mr. Taylor, we believe, acknowledges that the
idea of some of the incidents and some of the
characters of his play were suggested by a novel
Of Madame BIrch-Pfelffer, but he also claims
that there is a large amount of entirely original
matter in it, while the language and the dra
matic effects are entirely his own. Tho subject
of the play is based upon the religious and po
litical intrigues against "Elizabeth" during the
reign of her sifter "Queen Mary,"
and these are complicated by certain love
passages between "Elizabeth" and "Edward
Courtney," Earl of Devonshire, who, having
refused the hand of "Queen Mary," is the object
of her jealous hatred, this passion of the Queen
being skilfully worked upon by "Bishop Gar
diner" and the Spanish Ambassador "Renard"
for the accomplishment of their own ends, which
are the marriage of "Queen Mary" with "Philip
II," of Spain, the ultimate annexation of Eng
land to the Spanish crown, and the downfall of
Protestantism. Every reader of history know3
that "Elizabeth" during the lifetime of her
Bister Buffered many persecutions on account of
the political as well as the religious jealousy of
her sister. She was imprisoned, and evem when
nominally at liberty she was kept under close
surveillance, and more than once her life was in
actual danger. The drama, as is proper,
takes a romantic view of the historical facts
and presents them in a picturesque shape,
the imagination of the author supplying the
details necessary to an interesting if not strictly
accurate presentation of the events of an im
portant period of English history. Mr. Taylor
has brought his best abilities to bear in the pro
duction of this play, the subject is firmly out
lined, the dramatic situations are most effective,
and the characters are skilfully contrasted.
'Elizabeth V sturdy loyalty in the midst ot her
persecutions, with which, however, there was
not wanting a large amount of craft, or rather
foresight, is a striking feature of the character
as outlined by Mr. Taylor, and for au expe
rienced and skilful actress with the proper
physical endowments the part is one that offers
many opportunities for the exhibition of the
best talents. Miss Ella Burns, who sustained
the role of "Elizabeth" last evening, achieved a
flattering success, and for a novice her per
formance was most creditable. Mis Burns has
undoubted talents, which, if she assiduously
cultivates and does not aim too high at first,
will doubtless enable her to obtain a creditable
position on the stage; but she has not the physi
cal powers nor the facial expression necessary
for the proper delineation ot tragical emotions.
Last evening she appeared to be entirely self
possessed, and trod the stage with but little of
the embarrassment of a novice. Her acting in
dicated careful training, but, while often ex
pressive, it was highly artificial, and was fre
quently etilted to an unpleasant degree. We
expect, of course, that much of this will wear
off with experience, and comedy, for which
Miss Burns is apparently much better adapted
than tragedy, will, if she essays it, enable her to
cultivate an easy, natural style and to correct
her most pronounced faults. Miss Burns dis
played bo much ability last evening that she is
entitled to a candid criticism; and while a
novice is, of course, not be judged by the same
standard as an experienced artist, we are pay
ing the debutante a Mgher compliment by
pointing out "her defects thin we would have
done by weak praise.
The character of "Queen Mary" in the play
is a fine one from a dramatic point of view. Her
religious bigotry and her passionately jealeus
but truly affectionate disposition, the weaknesses
of which made her the ready tool of the priestly
counsellors by whom she was surrounded, are
well represented, and the character Is even a
more admirable artlstio study than that of
'Elizabeth." Miss Annie Graham played this
rmrt with an xcellent appreciation of its re
nntramenta. and her acting was in soma of the
best scenes exceedingly forcible. Mr. Walcot
eave a dashing and plctaresnue personation of
Edward Courtney, ana air. huuu
what artificial but not Inartistic one of "Bishop
Gardiner." The hideous costume worn by him,
however, was an insult to the intelligence no less
than to the trsthetlc tastes of the audience.
