linte* of Premium reduced Tirmty-fh* per cent.
Persons Insured In this Company for the whole term of <
life participate in the annual division of profits which will |
be paid in scrip or by bonds added to the policy.
Life Insurance upon tbe principle adopted by the Com- j
pany Is /rmndfl upon the principle of contribution In the >
shape of annual, semi-annual, or quarterly premium or
dues to a common fund, proportionate to the amount in
sured, out of which the company pay a stipulated sum on
the death of the assured, to the person for whose benefit
the insurance is effected. Thus each person Insuring In
this company, by contributing a small portion of his in
come or earnings, effects a sure provision for the wants
and necessities of his family after they arc deprived of
that support which, whilst living, he was enabled to pro
vide for therm by his exertion.
After a thorough Investigation of the different systems
adopted In Europe and America, and of the rates of pre
mlnrn charged, this company have reduced the annual
premium or quarterly dues twenty-five per cent, and will
receive the premium annually, semi-annually, or quar
terly, as may be preferred, under a Ann conviction that
the exigencies of the company will never etcerd and sel* I
dom require the premium charged by this company, to ;
enable ft to meet all Its engagements, which reduction
will leave a targe margin for seasons of unusual sickness
and death among Its members. This company preferring '
to reduce the premium at once to an amount more nearly
approximating the actual necessities of the company, than
to adopt the system of premium notes for s portion of the '
premium which is attended with so many disadvantages. '
Some of the peculiar advantages of this company are,
1. A reduction of tmenty-Jtre per rent. In the annual pro
mium charged.
2. A participation in the profits of the company by those '
who Insure for life.
3. A guarantee capital of $2AO,OAO to guard against all
contingencies.

COLD 8PRING WATERCTJRE.
Idling NEW AND SPLENDID ESTABLISHMENT for
the scientific treatment of the various diseases with
which the human system ia afflicted, ia situated about
three miles from the city of Buffalo, in a rural spot, and
so accessible from all points as to be rcached without in
convenience or delay.
A lino of omnibuses runs from tho steamboat landings
in Buffalo to the springs every ton minutes.
Tho house and grounds art near the extensive and
beautiful green-houses and nurseries of the Messrs. Hodges
k Bryants; and the scenery in all directions is unsur
passed, as regards either variety or beauty; embracing
points of view, from which may bo takon in at a glance
the broad expanse of Lake Erie, the Niagara flowing ma
jestically towards tho Vails, extensive forests, and the
"Queen City of the Lakes," with its moving panorama of
steamboats and ceaseless enterprise.
The water, taken Immediately from the celebrated
"Cold Spring," is unsurpassed as regards coldness and
purity, by any in the United States. The house, recently
erected at a cost of about seven thousand dollars, has been
fitted Uf> in a neat and elegant style, at considerable ex
tra expense, and is sufficiently capacious to accommodate
seventy-fivo patients.
Connected with the establishment, and constituting one
of its attractions, are the fixtures and conveniences for in
nocent and healthful gymnastic exercises.
MEDICAL DEPARTMENT.
The Institution is under the general supervision of S.
M. Davis, M. D., Professor of the Theory and Practice of
Medicine in Central Medical Colloge, and Geo. W. Davis,
M. D., formerly of Dansviile, N. Y., the resident physician,
and is permanently associated with the before mentioned
gentleman as counsel, and associate of the medical board {
of control. And the Mends of the establishment deem it
a matter of folicitatlon that the services of Miss Mary M.
Taylor, A lady of high medical attainments, who has at
tended two courses of lectures in tho Central Medical Col
loge, have been secured, and that female patients can at
any time avail themselves of her Invaluable aid and coun-j
n*K" ?
The steward's department is under the control of a gen
tleman eminently qualified for that position; and unwea
ried pains will bo taken to have every tiling appertaining
to the establishment arranged on a plan, and conducted
in a way, to ensure the comfort, and promote tho health
and happiness of all who may wish to avail themselves of
its benefits. Baths of all descriptions, adapted to the cure
of the various forms of disease, and constructed on a scale
not inferior to those of any other establishment in this
country.
An enlightened public sentiment has everywhere repu
diated a rockless use of drugs in the treatment of disease;
while intolerable sufferings and broken constitutions have
imperatively demanded "Reform." A return from a wide
and fatal departure from the simplicity of Nature's laws
is called for, alike by a rational love of happiness and tho
deplorable exigencies of our condition. Hydropathy, or a
scientific use of water ns a restorative and curative agent,
is a practical substitution of a simple and remarkably effi
cacious mode of curing the sick; for that system of drug
ging, depleting, and cauterizing, which, in obtaining the
mastery over disease, too frequently places the patient be
yond the reach of further annoyance. The success of the
various M ater Cure establishments in this country, to say
nothing of any other, has fully confirmed tho hopes of the
early discoverers and promulgators of the great truths
upon which the system is founded, and renders verbal
communications unnecessary. It is deemed sufficient to
say, that the " Cold Spring Water Cure " will compare fa
vorably with any of the well-conducted establishments of
a Similar character, and will bo found equal to tho best,
as regards the order, convenience, and desirableness of its
arrangements. Tho Institution is now open for the recep
tion of patients, and in full operation.

HUNTS MERCHANTS' MAGAZINE ? J
AND COMMERCIAL REVIEW.
EtUilAuhrd, July, 1839,
BT FREEMAN HUNT, EDITOR AND PROPRIETOR.
I^HE Number for December, 1860, completed the twen
ty-third semi-annual volume. The work has been
enlarged since its commencement in July, 1839, and each
I volume now contains more than seven hundred large oc
tavo pages. A few complete seta of the Mogasine may be
obtained at the publisher's office, 142 Fulton street, New
York, neatly and substantially bound, for two dollars and
a half per volume. i
The following are a few of the many commendatory let
ters received by the editor of the Merchants' Magazine
| from distinguished statesmen:
Lellrr from the Hon. ITntry Clay.
AantAxn, 20th July, 1849.
Dear Sir: I wish to express to you the gratification I
derived on receiving the July number of the Merchants'
Magazine and Commercial Review, from viewing your
portrait In the beginning, and from reading your address
to your friends at the end of it When we feel under ob
ligations to those who have contributed to our Informa
tion and amusement., we are naturally desirous to possess
all the knowledge of them, of their appearance, of the fea
tures of their countenance, and of the character and hab
its of their mind, which we can acquire. You have placed
yo?r numerous readers (at least you have me, if I may
not speak for them) under those obligations; and the
number of your valuable work now before me, In some
degree, satisfies the desire to which I have alluded.
I have become quite familiar with the Magazine and
Review, and have no hesitation In expressing my humble
opinion that It is eminently entitled to the public regard
and support. It collect* ami arranges, In good order, a large
amount of valuable statistical and otlier Information,
highly useful not only to the merchant, but to the states
man, to the cultivator of the earth, to the manufacturer,
to the mariner, in short, to all classes of the business and
reeding community.
Entertaining this opinion, I am glad that it has been, and
hope that it may continue to be, liberally patronized.
Offering you cordial assurances of my esteem and re
gard, I am truly your friend and obedient servant,
Freeman Hunt, esq. H. CLAY.
Ertrnd of a lettrr from lion. Millard Fillmore.
" I hare read it (Merchants' Magazine) with a good
deal of attention, and hare no hesitation in saying that 1
think It one of the most valuable periodicals that was
ever published. To the merchant it seems quite Indis
pensable, and to the statesman and man of general Infor
mation almost equally desirable. It Is a grand repository
of useful facts and Information, which can be found no
where so well digested and so accessible as In these num
bers. I only regret that I do not own tho whole work."

Mr. Freeman Hnnt?Mr: I owe rou many thanks for
the opportunities I have had to read the Merchants' Mag
azine, and have fonnd It In reality to be a magazine, and
that well replenished, of ail the useful matter which the
title would Imply, and presented with a fullness and
rlnarnM* which delights while It Instructs, it is, in fket,
a merchants' magazine In the large acceptation of the
term?merchants who go between nations, whose large
operations bring many departments of knowledge, and a
view of the state of the world, Into dally requisition. But
it ia not the great merchant only, but the one of more
modest, but nevertheless, of most nseful operations?tho
merchant of the Interior alao? who will find this magazine
to abound with the Information the pursuit of his busi
ness and the elevation of the mercantile character re
quires. Nor Is its utility at all confined to merchants, but
extends to the legislator and diplomatist, and to all who
are charged with managing the affairs of the nation. For
myself, F have fonnd It mo?t useful to me In my senato
rial labors, and have been In the haUt for many years of
carefully consulting It.
Very respectfully, sir, your obedient servant,
THOMAS 11. BENTON.
Letter from Hon. IPtn. If. Neioartl.
My Dear Sir: llava the goodness to place my name on
your list of subscribers for the Merchants' Magazine. I
reganl it as an Invaluable work for the use of all who
would understand not merely commercial operations In
this extending country, but the fiscal ami commercial
questions Involvod in the administration of the govern
ment

BRITISH dl AKTBRLV RBVIEWK.
OWING id the lute revolutions and counter-devolution*
among the nation* Qf Europe, which have followed
each other iu ?uch qukk Huooeboion, wad of which " the
end it not yet," the leading periodical* of Great Britain
have become Inverted with a degree of Interest hitherto
unknown. They occupy a middle ground between the
iiaity, disjointed, and nucoawrQy imperfect records of the
newspaper*, and the elaborate and ponderous treaties to
be furnished by tlte historian at a future day. Whoever
reeds these periodicals obtains a correct and connected ac
count of all the important political event* of the Old
World, a* they occur, and learn* the various conclusions
drawn from them by the leading spirits of the age. The
American publishers therefore deem it proper to call re
newed attention to the work* they publish, and the very
lovr prlues at which they are offered to subscribers. The
following is their list, viz;
Thk London Quaiitkrlt Kkvikw,
-'Thi Edinburgh Review,
Thk Nouth Ukjtish it*view,
Tni WtsTMiNsrsE Hivisw, and
Blackwood's Emubokgu Maoazik*.
In those periodicals are contained the views, moderately
though dearly and firmly expressed, of the three greatest
parties in England?Tory, Whig, and ltadical; " Black
wood" and tbo " Loudon Quarterly" are Tory, the " Edin
burgh Review" Whig, and tho " Westminster Review"
Liberal. The " North British Review" owes its establish
ment to the laetgreutecclesiasticalmovemeut in HcoUand,
and is not, ultra in its views on any one of the grand de
partment* of human knowledge. 11 was originally edited
ny Dr. Chalmers, and now, sinoe his death, la conducted
by his son-in-law, Dr. llauna, associated with Sir David
Brewster. Its literary character is of the vefy highest
order. The " Westminster," tliough reprinted undor that
title only, is published In England under the title of the
" Foreign Quarterly and Westminster," it being In fact a
union of tho two Rovlows formerly published and reprinted
under separate titles. It lias, therefore, the advantage, by
this combination, of uniting in one work the best features
of both, as heretofore issued.
The abovo Periodicals aro reprinted in New York, imme
diately on their arrival by the British steamers, in a beau
tiful clour type, on fine white paper, and are tiiithful co
pies of the originals?Blackwood's Magazine being an ex
act fac timilc of the Edinburgh edition.

LEVEEETT8 LATIN LEXICON,
I ENLARGED AND IMPROVED, compiled chiefly from
the Magnum Totius Latinitatis Lexicon at Facciolatl
tnd Forcelllni, and the German works of Scheller and Lue
nemann, embracing, also, the classical distinctions ol
words, and the Etymological Index from Freund's Lexi
con.
The present edition of this standard and favorite Latin
Lexicon has been much improved by the transfer to its
columns of the classical distinctions of Latin words, a.'
given in the Lexicon of Dr. Wm. Freund, of Germany,
and translated by Riddle. The classical degree of each
word is indicated by a figure; for example, a word vritfumi
a figure i* fully clattical find Ciceronian; with the figures
1, 2, and 3, words are classical only in the first, sec
ond, Ac., decrees; and this distinction tho student pur
ee Ives at a glance. Tho Etymological I ndex, also from
Freund's Lexicon, has been incorporated into the present
edition of l?verett, and will be found a valuable acquisi
tion. While transferring these notes and marks, cata
logues were carefully kept of the words found in each
Lexicon, which were not found In the other. On oompar
ing these catalogues, it whs found that the valus and im
portance of the additional words found in Leverett. so fai
as a knowledge of the Latin language is concerned, very
far exceeds that of those found in Riddle's Freund. Th?
extensive use of Leverett'* Lexicon in all parts of th?
country, and the preference which has l>een universally
given to it over all similar works, render its recommends
tion superfluous; but attention to this new edition If
respectfully invited, as being still more worthy than its
Eredecessors of the distinguished favor which the work
a* hitherto roccivod.

1 1st. The astonishing rapidity of the process, surpass

2d. Tho Cream during the progress of freexlng becomes
charged with atmospheric air, by which it nearly doubles
! In bulk, and obtains thst peculiar smoothness, lightness,
and delicacy of flavor, for which the Ice Cream of our
j bei-t Confectioners is so highly prised.
3d. It docs not require a {enth part of the labor that
I the common Freescr does.
1 4th. It does its work better, producing s lwtter artlcl*
i in everyrespect, than by any other mode.
5th. rhere Is a considerable saving in Ice, as the tub
needs no replenishing during the operation.
The annexed testimonial from the Proprietor of the
