NEW BOOKS.

THE CHILD WIFE: A TALE OF THE Two WORLDS. By Capt. Mayne Reid, author of the "Scalp Hunters," &c, &c

New York: Sheldon & Co. For gale by Barlett & Grundy. "Child'Wife," is one of Mayne Raid's most charming stories. Under the garb of delightful fiction, wo have almost an autobiography of this remarkable man, who has now become an American citizen, and an inside view of the fearful struggle for Hungarian Independence, with which he was so nearly associated. Thore is more of society and less of exciting adventure by land and sea in this than in the average novels of the prolific Captain Reid but the same champagne-like vivacity pervades his style, whether ho depicts a matrimonial quarrel or a tiger hunt. He does not give the reader's attention a moment's chanco to flag, and is inexhaustible In the ground he covers by his plot?, as in the troops of characters he intro. duces upon the stage of his stories.

PaiNciPLsaor LotIMBIXBAXCX*youtset, —If the benefits of Life Insurance were fully understood, and the public bad perfect confidence in all the companies, it is certain that there would scarcely be an intelligent man who would not take that method of providing for hia family after his death. Yet, in the United States, statistics show that but one life in one hundred is insured. The great difficulty is that the principles of the system have never been popularized, and that men have not been convinced—as they easily can be—of its absolute security and immeasurable usefulness.

An entirely new era in American Life Insurance is begun by the establishment of theN atio&a I Lift I nsujpip C«pu»?X» chartered Jy1 C$4N»f» cash capital of One Million Dollars, and under the management of the ablest and known financiers of the country. This Company will give an impotus to the business which will bo universally felt, for it pro^s^a ^yrUch.lMo simple, so safe,

high

Those aro some of the main principles of this new Company, tho organization of which we have carefully examined, and can unreservedly pronounce Worthy of universal confidence. It should be made fully^known to tho people ot the Uniti States, for it briags^f the benpflts*,pf life inslrianco'withiA thw reachM~atf!^ Hit not only tho intorest but it is the duty of overy man who thoughtfully copsidors the uncertainty of life, to tako the ordinary business precautions for tho welfare of his wife and children, and no system, can be safor and more certain to protect them from want than.that whic^^vehaVe explained in fhis.WtidT^^J)^.^TC^IE is tho agont for Terre Haute.

SPIRITUALISM IN TERRE IIAUTE.—Itiaf already known to most of our readers^ that Pence's Hall, is ccoju^io^and bks been for some lime on Sunduys, for the promulgation of Spiritual wm. The Society has evidently not la&odTaitt^or Tneans,

for they have secured tho servicos of J. H, Powoll, prominent English Spiritualist, aitd formerly editor of the '^pju-jlua] Times/' Loadori, -fo&Yt^e

ligion

thoroughly "feusmess-like in ev

ery respect, that it will at once take from Lifo Insurance every element ot uncertainty, and place its benefits within thei reach and coinprchonsion of every citizen.

Most .of. American nies hitherto bHftfbeenfoifa*flk#l&lle{ mutual system, every policy-holder being charged at a

rate for the privilege

of a fiharoin Mi*3»rnip3»jOj| tjiefempany Tho National Life Insurance Company has abolished this system entirely. It offers tho largest atnountoj' immedi insurance for a gi^oT» offers no opportunity for spoculation, and! no margin for disappointment. Evory man who insures his Jifqan it,jk$ cisely what fee ^yB^g|d Wj not the hope of making some great pro: out of future dividends, ha is without the fear of loss. Tho dividends which the mutual companies promise at some uncertain time to come, tho -stock company) gives at onco by reducing its rate?. For instance, a person aged 30, by paying an annual premium of fJ§^Wi.Mfe»res a] policy in the National Life Insurance! Company of $10,0W), while the sfmarnremium in the mutual companies can secure but $7,031.80. On this plan Orbing is 1.1MMMitf sibiuly be misundorstooa By either party^ and tho groat object of insurance isgain-!j

ed. That object, oh the p($t bVthe insure er, is not speculation, but the protection of hia family from the-eyWs Wh'ifebjmightj follow his death.

This advantage *o£ Insurance Company is ti'&t ^TbPoasilyij overrated, esf^ciafty ^§eii tho securitj' which exists in the magnitude of th paid-up capital, and the high character ol the managers, is considered. But beeidei this, there aro other new features of th system which must at once meet the ap proval and command the confidence ol the public. The first of these is the Ri turn Premium plan, by which all premi ums paid to the Company will bo return ed at tho death of tho person whose lift is insured. A person aged 30, who payi an annual premium of $257 50 for a policj of $10,000, arulilioi in the first year, ensure his heirs tho total amount of $10,257.50 Shdold he live teif^eaFs, ntfd nual proiuiums, the amounti refunded to his family would be $12,575. Thus, bj this method tho policy-holders gets hi 1 insurance for almost nothing, it costinj him only tho interest upon his annua I premiums. Another feature, ontirely ne^ and of great valuo, is tho Income Producing plan, by which the insurer, in a^diuon to his lifo insurance, obtains from tho Company a life annuity after a cer tain number of yoars. For instance, hp may take out a policy of $1,000, and, by paying a proportionate promium, secure to himsolf at the oxpiration of ten years an annual income of one hundred dollars as. Ipngas ho livo£. By this plan a !mfiji nol£i$5 pi|^e|/i^hi|i|^ his death, but securbs for himself a permanent incomo in his old ago.

Z#V*i|i4§Mr.

Powell, who is the author of several poetic and prose works of a miscellaneous character, gave his inaugural address yesterday morning. He opened the ser-f vices by reciting one of bis own poems and reading the J2th chapter of 1st Corinthians. The Sotei^ WlowpHakeri from tho Lecture, will probably give the road or a fair statement of the general views of Spiritualists. The speaker said "We come together to commence work which I trust may prove a labor of lovo. Judged by ordinary standards we are strangers—but Bot in reality straps gers, for tho work we aro each and all engaged in unites us in spirit, whether wo aro noar cach other or distant and divided.

I hold that the Bible is a book of varied afid wortderful spiritual record's that the Gospels Contain many beautiful soulsanctifying truths, together with much that is as stubble tb the wheat.

I hold that man has no power to accept or, reject tho Bible or any book or teaching, true or false, without preparatory influences fitting his mind for the task.

I hold that books, religions and man must be judged by their fruits. I hold that Jesus, as a man and brother, comea very near to us, and catonot fail to win the homago of the aspirant for Pifrity—that the life and death of the Nazarine are lessons of valuo to Human ity^.and,that many of bis teachings are ipttroet and cannot bo improved.

I hold that tho popular conception of the atonement, is inconsistant with the teachings of reason repulsive to the moral instincts, and utterly ignored by the teachings of Spiritualism.

I hold that all forms, ceremonies, ritualisms and mumeries which subordinate Religion, which rightly interpreted is "love to God and man," are neither more nor less than images to the Idolator, that Spiritualism tho great Iconoclast will yet break to pieces.

In a word, I hold that man is stamped by his Maker with Individuality, and is destined in the far future to bocome his own Judge, Priest and King.

Holding these views, it will at once be seon that I take the side of Human Freedom for men and women tho world ovor, without distinction of clime or race.

Spiritualism is the only religion that embraces Universal Rights. I know no reason for ray owu liberties that will not apply to tho liberties of others irrespective of sex or color.

Thus convinced, and feeling free to act from conviction, I willingly, nay gladly, don the ministerial robes, and pray God and the good angels to give me such inspiration and strength as I may ^Trim^tlme to time need.

GRAPE WINE.—We take pleasure in directing the attention of the public to Speer's celebrated Port Grape Wine, a pure and unadulterated grape wine, upon which every one having occasion to use wine may most implicitly rely. *TKe wine is made at Speer's vineyards, Passaic, N. J. It has a rich flavor, mellow juiciness, and brilliant color, and is not only an agreeable bev«ra e, but highly beneficial in its properties. We know this to be the fact, having tried the article thoroughly. Use Speer's Bottled Winee with his signature on the cork, and you are sure of getting a pure article.—Davenport Democrat. -i: dwlt
