THE NAUTILUS MUTUAL LIFE IN
SURANCE COMPANY.
J. D. P. QGDEJN, President. (
HIS COMPANY have declared a 1
A dividend of 50 per cent, on the amount of ’
nett earned premiums for the year ending in *
J one, which has been passed respectively to the 1
credit of their customers.
In order that the advantages of Life Insurance
may be extended to those persons who may find
it inconvenient to pay the whole amount of the
premium in cash, it has been determined by the
Board of Trustees that in all cases where thean
nual premium shall amount to $5O, sixty per ct. *
of the premium only will be required in cash, the (
remaining forty per ct. in an approved note, pay- '<
able twelve months after date, bearing interest <
at six per ct. The interest on the note must be 1
paid annually; but the principal will not be call- *
edin unless the exigencies of the Company re- 1
quire it, and then only by rateable assessments, i
to the extent that may be needed to meet their i
engagements—in which case sixty days notice
will be given. i
It is confidently anticipated that a system, the 1
operation of which is so fair and equitable, so i
well calculated to place the benefits of Life In- i
surance within the reach of all, and at the same <
time enable each contributor to share equally in i
its security and profits, will meet, as it is beiiev- <
ed to deserve, the favor and confidence of the
public. i
The particular advantages offered by this Com*- ]

From the New Orleans Picayune of the 4th inst‘
Revolution in Campeachy.
The Yucatan schooner Joaquina, Capt. Martinez,
arrived yesterday from Laguna and Campeachy,
having sailed the 26th ult. Her advices are more
than a month later than our former ones.
The Joaquina brings us a new pronunciamento
in Campeachy which is hardly worth the trouble
of reporting, so contemptible do we regard these
domestic dissensions with which the petty States
of Mexico are habitually rent. This last pronun
ciamento was made on the 25th of October. It re
cites that the people have derived naught from the
rulers charged with their welfare but a series of
calamities. Although they have enjoyed three
yeais of peace, yet they are still burthened with
the debt incurred in their last campaign ; they
have perfected no political system adequate to
their requirements ; the true and faithful friends
of the country have not attained to the enjoyment
of those blessings for which they had taken up
arms; they have seen power engrossed in the bands
of those who in the critical moments ot the coun
try took side against the just cause of the people ;
and a variety of other equally weighty causes for
present action are given which we have not room
to enumerate. We next come to something more
specific.
The pronunciamento protests against the re
moval of those officers f capitulares] who have re
fused to give in their adhesion to the new law or
order of things as being contrary to the wishes of
their constituents, and, fully aware of the conse
quences of the act, the supporters of the pronunci
amento have reduced their protest to the following
explicit form, (slightly abbreviated:)
Art. 1. Those officers \capiiulares\ shall be re
stored to their employments, who have been de
posed for having refused to swear to the organic
law.
Art. 2. The Constitution of 1841 is re-establish
ed, and those who appose this declaration are de
posed from their official employments.
Art. 3. An administrative junta is established iu
this city, which from this time forth shall be oc
cupied in digesting a system of administration
which is to be observed until this plan is seconded
by all the people of the State.
Art. 4. This junta is to be composed of seven
members, to perform (heir duties gratuitously and
in conferraity with the constitution proclaimed.
Art. 5. All citizens are bound to respect the acts
of this junta, so far as they are not manifestly re
pugnant to the public will.
Art. 6. All the authorities and those holding
public employments are to be sworn to sustain and
respect tbe present plan.
Ait. 7. This act of the people of Campeachy
is to be communicated by the Executive to all tbe
municipalities of the State, with a view to obtain
their sanction.
Art. 8. The personal contribution which the
Yucatecos now pay is to be reduced tc one dollar
per month, to be collected according to the laws
which prevailed in 1840.
Art. 9. The people of Campeachy pledge them
selves to the execution of the present plan of true
liberty and guaranties for the Yucatecos.
Dated Oct. 25,18-16.
The above is a very brief statement of this pro
nunciamento, the objects of which are not very
clear; but it may be recollected that the people of
Campeachy before refused compliance with that
act of the Yucatan Congress passed on the 25ih of
August, acknowledging the revolution in Mexico
and proclaiming Santa Anna’s ascendency. They
refused to promulgate the decree till Barbachano
threatened them with coercion. This last revolu
tion may be another outbreak of tbe same spirit.
Tbe formal pronunciamento is followed by an
address to the different municipalities of the penin
sula. We have no room for the address. We
have, besides, the act of the garrison of Campeachy,
in which, after due deliberation, they declare their
adhesion to the pronunciamento and pledge them
selves to its support. We have no papers or let
ters to illustrate these acts of the garrison ; noth
ing but the naked official declarations. The
demands upon our space to-day are such that we
cannot enter further into these affairs of Yucatan
An Interesting Scene.—Week before last'
a marriage was solemnized at Marion, in this
Stale, between the Rev. Mr. Shuck, missiona
ry to Canton, and Miss Sexton, a teacher in
the Judson Insti mte. Previously to the depar
ture of the parties on their way to the scene of
their Christian labors in China, the bridegroom
delivered an address to the church at Marion.—
Mobile Herald.
At its conclusion, (says the Ala. Baptist) the
brethren and sisters present, and many others in
the congregation, came forward and gave to the
beloved missionaries the parting hand. Tears
and sobs showed the strong hold brother Shuck
had gained on the affections of the brethren,
and many wept sore for the words which be
spake. “Ye shall see my face no more.” The
parting between Mrs. Shuck and the young la
dies, who had been under her instruction, was
most deeply affecting. She could scarcely tear
herself from their embraces, their kisses, and
their tears. Mrs. S. preserved her composure
with admiral self command.
The Yucatan Schooners.— Since|our last a
nother Yucatan schooner has arrived here. We
learn that neither of them has been allowed to
enter at the Custom House, and that the U. S.
Marshall has an officer on board each olthem.

Boat Sunx. —A steamboat called the Magic,
running between Cincinnati and Memphis, was
snagged and sunk on the 261 h ult, at the head of
Plum Point Bend. The freight, consisting ot
bagging and rope, flour, &c., was mostly saved,
but it was thought the boat would be lost.—Pie.
