SPLENDID GOODS.—We would refer the public to

TEM ETRIONAK MINSTRILS h•ve drawn crowded
houses for the last evenings. To-bight they give
another, and we believe the lest of their Concerts.
They have a paper published in Boston called
the Hawriatt. It takes strong ground against cap
ital punishment.
nr Tbe Cincinnati Times wastes a whole column

kin. irumbuit must be attractive in the Queen city.
0:7 As Artificial Arm has been made by Van Pe
terson, a Dutch sculptor, which is a perfect triumph of
art. The committee of the French Academy, have
seen the invention upon five mutilated individuals, and
among whereupon an invalid, who has been deprived
of both arms ever since the wars of the empire, and
who, by the aid of two artificial arms, took with his
hands a full glass, carried it to his mouth, drank from
it without spilling a drop, and then replacing the glass
upon the table from which he had taken it. The
same disabled man can pick up a pin, take hold of a
sheet of paper, &c,

The success of the Company s o far, is highly flat
tering. Those inusuring houses of Brick or Stone
have paid 11 of 1 percent.—whereas, in a Stock Com
pany they would have paid of I per cent.; on build
fogs of Wood and exposed, the cost of Insurance has
been of 1 per cent , in a Stock Compnny. it would
have been sto 1 per cent. The manufacturer and
property hazardous hes paid pr. et., in a Stock Com
pany would have been from to 2 per cent.
The aggregate saving to the members of the Com
pany bas been at least $6OOO in premiums for In.
entail:Me.
The ability of the company to pay all losses that
can reasonably be expected, is no longer problemati
cal, and while the capital of Stock Companies re
mains stationary, the capital of this company increases
in proportion to its liabilties. In a company of this
kind, which is mutually to pay each other's losses by
fire, and at such trifling expense to each individu tl.
the directors feel confident that owners of property
will no longer leave themselves without Insurance,but
unite in giving their support to an Institution fur mu
tual benefit.
