CHARTER PERPETUAL.

The Bylaws of this Company. and the
regulations governing insurance have, re-
Gently been very materially changed, pla-
cling it upon a basis equal to that of any
Fire Insurance Company in the State. H.
Important among these changes are the
following. viz;
Policies, instead of being perpetual, are
issued for five years.
All property is classified and the rate Of.
premium is fixed according to the risk Of
the property. Jn
Premium notes are taken, and all as
easements are made on the notes.
Property is insured for not more than
two thirds of its actual cash value, and the
full amount of insurance paid in case of loss.
provided the loss be equal 10 the amount OF
insurance.
"Annual assessments" only are made, ex-
cept in cases of heavy loss. and where
special assessment is necessary.
The Company is therefore prepared to IN
sure property upon terms much more deslra-
bic than under the old system.
Applications may be made to any of the
Managers, Surveyors, or Secretary.

that the fees are so small that the man Of
moderate means can secure competency
to his family at a trifiing cost, and payable
at such long intervals, aud such small sums
that no person can be Inconvenience by
them. This company cannot fail; no

CHILpREN's WAYs.-Gail Hamilton, writing
of children says: "I should be sorry to say
anything that might aid or abet our idle, lax
and worthless American fathers and mothers.
But is an iudisputable fact that children do take
an immense deal of spelling without permanent
injury if there is good stock in them. Nature
seems to think more of substance than train
ing, for she gives children to people when they
are freshesta and strongest. tits delightful to
children always behaving with perfect proprie-
ty and politeness but if they kick, and cuff,
aud scream, and garb, all is not lost. There is
q certain governor whom, not having seen,
love, because he sends word to his son that his
gralason is the best little fellow in the would if
you de not thwart him, and always obedient if
you do not hurry him about it. The baby in
breeches was standing by my chair, and clan
destipely snatched kiss, whereupon he drew
hishand and gave me a smart slap on the cheek.
It was in my heart to retort with thump, but
1 refrained, and by and by, when whispered,
"Why did you strike me ?" he answered inno-
Gently because you stole kiss" Innocent
as an angel, for it was pure frolic, and no ma
lice or rudeness at all. But we expect to take
liberties with children, and then have them
perfectly wise and aware of the exact degree
of respect to be observed toward ourselves"

THE INQULR Y.

Tell me, ye winged winds,
That round my pathway roar,
Do We not know some spot
Where mortals weep more?
Some lone and pleasant dell,
Some valley in the west,
Where, free from toll and pain,
The weary soul may restf
The loud wind dwindled to a whisper low,
And sighed for pity as it answered, 'Nop
Tell me- thou mighty deep,
Where pillows round me play,
Know'st thou some favored spot,
Some island far away,
Where weary man may find
The bliss for which he sighs,
Where sorrow never lives,
And Friendship never dies
The loud waves, rolling in perpetual flow,
Stopped for while, and sighed to answer, "Nol"
And thou sert nest moon,
That with such holy face
Dost look upon the earth
Asleep in nights embrace,
Tell me, in all thy round,
Hast thou not seen some spot
Where miserable man
Might find happier lot
Behind cloud the withdrew in woe,
And a voice sweet, but still, responded "Nol'
Tell me, my secret soul,
o, tell me, Hope and Faith,
Is there no resting place
From sorrow, sin, and death
Is there no happy spot
Where mortals may be blessed,
Where grief may find balm,
And WEAKNESS a rest
Faith, Hope, and Love-best boons to mortals given,
Waved their bright wings, and whispered, "Yes, in
Heavenl"
