Iyman Trumbull can hardly enjoy the attention he is receiving: The Hartford Evening Post notices him in this way: "The only prominent salary-grabber who accepted the steal and has the face now to charge the Republicans with official misconduct is Lyman Trumbull, the Democratic candidate for governor of Illinois." The Leadville (Col.) Herald discusses what has been settled by the war, and arguing from undisputed facts, con. eludes: "Settled! There is nothing settled. It takes two parties to make a settle ment. The Republicans and Union men thought everything was settled, and so it was, :is far as they were con cerned, but the other side have never said or thought so, and now that they are encouraged by the possibility of success, they are beginning to reveal their sentiments." "What witlu.Tohn Kelly and the rival Democratic chiefs shaking the dice box under his eyes to parcel out the Xew York local offices, and the flocks of cormorants daily taking flight to Governor's Island, General Hancock must begin to have a poor opinion of Ids. present associates. It was reserved for his nomination to bring thimble rigging prominetly forward as a factor in Democratic politics. To the farthest edge of American civilization, the Democratic method is fully understood. The Leadville (Col.) Herald says: "It has been supposed that the Miss issippi plan had passed out of date, and that murder for opinion's sake would no longer disgrace the annals of our political history, but a Southern paper says 'let the Mississippi plan be re stored,' -and we acknowledge with shameful sorrow that we liave been mistaken." There are two arguments fatal to Democracy, says the Albany (X. Y.) Evening Journal: "I. A Democratic restoration can only be accomplished by doing violence to- the dictates of patriotism. The party which now clamors for the reins of power, which demands that the government of this country be placed in its hands, is tho party which not so very long ago furnished all the men that took up arms with tho determina tion of destroying tho Union. "II. A Democratic restoration can only bo accomplished by endangering the prosperity of tho country. All branches of trade and industry are do ing well. Tho merchant and manu facturer are prospering. There is work for all who apply. !No man who is not lazy or incompetent need be idle a day." The Philadelphia Press comes to the point in this way: ""We may safely challenge any cham pion of the Democratic party to name a single act to preserve tho Union or to restore our prosperity which the Democratic party lias not opposed. "What part h:is it borne in either of these gre-.it movements except that of obstruction and hostility? Xo fact of history is'more clearl" demonstrable than this insistent and vicious anta gonism of the Democratic Representa tives and'organization to all the meas ures adopted to save the Xation and re-establish its business progress." Roseburg, Oregon, is remote from the-centre of information, but political matters are thoroughly understood. The Ptaindeal'er says of the Democrat ic part': "Xow it denounces the army and nominates a second-rate, fast-living, torpid-looking soldier for President. It denounces National Ranks and nom inates a first Xational Rank Presi dent for its Vice-President." Xowhere in the nation are the pend ing issues hidden under a bushel. The Cleveland (0.) Leader has this infor mation : "The existing feeling has been well expressed by one of the most prominent manufacturers of Connecticut. On a recent occasion he remarked that, jis a business investment, the manufacturers of that State could well afford to spend half a million dollars than have their present prosperous condition disturbed by a Democratic victory in November." Democracy, among its new aftlictions, has been visited with color blindness and an utterly inability to distinguish between tho blue and the gray. The Ohio (Columbus) State Journal relates several instances of this most lamenta ble disease. The worst CJise, of the many cited, is that of Senator Thur man in his speech at Columbus, (0.) where he seemed to insist that if there is any difference, the gray is a little the bluest. Doubting Democrats are ad vised to get a copy of his speech and read it carefully. It will probably not bo circulated by the Democratic Xa tional Committee, and applications should be made direct to Senator Thur nian. General Grant has a happy faculty of saying apt things at'apt times. His brief saying concerning the Republican party: "It will not do to be beaten now," tingles the nerves of the Xation as in 1S6-1 did his famous telegram: "I propose to fight it out on this line if it takes all summer-" The Cincinnati Commercial brings to the public notice the cloud of danger now hardly so large as a man's hand: "When there is not a member of the Democratic party able to raid, Avrite and cipher who doesn't know that the whole pretense that Tilden was elected President grows out of the political in- j fluence of bloody mnraer, nuiiuying the Constitution of the United States, the true character of the prolonged howl about the fraud of 1876 becomes apparent. It is an im.rticulate asser tion of the determination of the Dem ocratic party to rule irrf ipectiveof the rights of Electors or tno torms or law; and that amounts to a inreac oi yar." civil Even in Indiana the average Demo crat has not learned the value of reticence- Tho Indianapolis Journal says: "The best Democratic speech of the campaign was made recently at Mar- tinsville by Hon. Sol Claypool, of this city. He advocated the absolute inde pendence of the States, even going so far as to justify the principle of seces sion, ire declared that the war on the part of the government was a crime, and that the Southern people were vic tims. This, he argued, entitled them to remuneration for their losses, and their soldiers to equal rights with our own, which he predicted would be se cured to them by Hancock's election." Concerning tho business aspect of, tho political question, the Uoston Daily Advertiser says: "The finances, which a few short years ago were in such a condition that the business of the country necessarily partook of the nature of a gigantic speculation, are now firmly established on the bed rock of a gold b:isis. The merchant no longer stands upon a shifting bottom. The proceeds of his sales no longer represent uncertain value, which is worth a given sum when received, but possibly a much less amount when he desires to pay it out." A financial suggestion is aptly made by the "Washington (D. C.) Republican : "The election of Hancock would, of course, be a condemnation of Sher man's financial policy. All his theo ries are pronounced false; all his acts are declared pernicious, all his experi ments are regarded as failures. If Hancock should be elected a change would be inevitable, because of the want of faith in Sherman's system; be cause of the promise to relieve the country from the burdens its trials has imposed." Hardly had he returned to Galena, when Gen. Grant wrote: "The Republicans seem to feel great confidence in carrying Xew York and Indiana. If they do, we are safe, and another four years Avill probably see the breaking up of the Democratic Party and the organization of two na tional parties exercising the franchise freelv, without fear, in all sections alike"." Even from the depths of the Atlan tic Ocean comes a protest against De mocracv. Just before he sailed on that fatal voyage in the City of Vera Cruz, the gallant Gen. Torbert wrote to an old companion in arms: "i nave Known uen. iiancocK lor o years, and like him, but I can't stand the company, poiiticaiiv, that lie is with. I hope no Republican of the old brigade will desert Garfield, for this fight is about as important as any we had between 1SG0 and 1S05. Everywhere the situation is clearly seen. The St. Louis Globe-Democrat says: "Indiana is the battle-ground this year. The election of Porter in Octo ber means the election of Garfield in November. It is not true, however, that the election of Landers in October means the election of Hancock in No vember." "Wade Hamptons lame defense still attracts attention. The Atchison (Kan.) Champion thus notices it: "The "Wade Hampton case has passed through three stages of defense. First, lie duln t say it at all, and the passage was a forgery ; second, lie said it, but his meaning w;is misconstrued; third, ho said it, but there is no harm in it any way. It would have been much wiser to have adopted the last defense first." Lienerai weaver is not much ot a comfort to Democratic politicians. Last Monday while tho Democracy were rejoicing over Maine, Gener.il "Weaver in Cooper Institute, Xew York, made the following statement of Dem ocratic methods in Alabama. He said: "Why, when a man votes down there the Judges of election, who sit behind a screen so no one can see them, look at his ballot, and if it suits them they yut it in the box; but if it doesn't suit they tear it up and put another that does suit them in thebox. Such is the con dition of affairs in the South to-day." Greenbackers certainly cannot refuse' to believe such testimony. General "Weaver does not over draw tho picture. The ballot in tho South is worse than a farce; it is a crime. Under the garb of honesty it is made to strike cruel blows at tho poor and helpless men of that section. If there was ever a demand for honest, freedom-loving men to speak.it is just now. Inter Ocean. The Atlanta Constitution is getting the blues listen: In the present aspect of affairs the Democratic outlook is not the most hopeful in the world, and we write this in order thut our readers may place themselves in the proper frame of mind to bear a possible disappointment with the patient complacency of men who are prepared for the worst. The Demo crats of Indiana are threatened with defeat. "While hoping for the best, we are prepared for the worst. Indiana may go for Landers, but all tho infor mation goes to show that the campaign in that State has been arrested and im peded. "We would not, therefore, ad vise our readers to make any great preparations for a Democratic victory in November unless Indiana rolls up a Democratic majority in October. An Annapolis correspondent says that a natural curiosity died there a few days ago. The child was of color ed parentage, and when born had white curly hair, representing sheeps' wool. The eyes were of a pinkish color, and the complexion was snow-white, with a slight tinge of red on tho cheeks. It very closely resembled a large wax doll which had been exhibited in a shop window, and which the mother of the child had frequently admired and ex pressed an anxious desire to purchase, but was unable to do so. The phy sicians pronounce it a remarkable case of lusus natune. An unknown exchange tells this good story: They stopped, looked and commented upon his being drunk or asleep. Finally one said: "O come along, can't you see the fellow's drunk ?" Up came the head of the drowsy in dividual, and his eyes half closed, leered at the man who had just spoken, as he answered with a big oath: "Yes, I'm-er- drunk, but I can-er-get over that. You're a d d (hie) fool, and you'll never (hie) get over that." The condition ot the potato crop as reported September 1 shows a decline compared with 1S79. The acreage for the whole country is 4 per cent, less than last year at the same date. A Virginia paper concludes a report of a political meeting with the remark: "After speeches had been made by fourteen other generals, the convention J adjourned." POLITICAL NUGGETS. "Closed for repairs" "Wade Hamp ton's mouth. Who will be the next Democrat to blurt out the truth and then declare himself a liar? It sounds like the old tune, the mus- ... .i-,,r - : ic m the air noes: "we are tummy, Father Abraham." "Wilt Reltzhoover ever dare to go back to Washington and face the rebel brig adiers, whose hatred of j the Union sol diers he has so fully exposed? It is confidentially reported that when English heard the News from Vermont he ordered a new set of hoops for his ban-els, foreclosed another dozen of mortgages, and shut himself up m lis iron cage. The solid South, including "West Virginia and Maryland, paid for the last fiscal year 828,000,000 internal revenue taxas. The solid North paid SSS,700.000. Illinois alone paid nearly as much as the whole South, oiamely, 1-23,000,000. General Hancock wrote in his letter of acceptance: "When fraud, violence, or incompetence controls, the noblest constitution and wisest laws are use less." We infer that their uselessness must be very camplete throughout the solid South. Maine is as thoroughly a loyal, Union State is tho Union holds. Cincinnati Enquirer. Does that result from the small num ber of democrats in it? "When a Democrat asks a Union sol dier to support Hancock because of the hitter's services during the war, ask him what a Confederate would say if urged to support Longstreet for the sake of his services to the Confederacy. TENNESSEE. Kukluxism. Springfield, Tenn., Sept, 20. Some time ago a white man was found dead in this vicinity. He was a bachelor of considerable property, and lived at Sad dlersville. lie was not a politician, but a planter of good character, and was undoubtedly murdered by some highwayman for booty. Nevertheless the Democrats of this section took ad vantage of the occurance for political effect, and soon after ariested seven of the colored Republican leaders the best men and those of the most politi cal influence, and charged them Avith this crime. They were sent to jail, and tortured by all the methods known to the inquisition to induce them to con fess their guilt. They were whipped, hungby the toes and thumbs, and. would have died under torture if they had not been men of extraordinary consti tutions. Of course no confession could be obtained, and no evidence against any of the prisoners was secured by the prosecuting attorney', who, by the way, was a Democrat. The men who instigated this outrage endeavored to have the trial postponed until after election, as it was very apparent that the men would be acquitted, but being unable to secure a postponement, they organized a mob of lo0 Democrats, at tacked the jail at night and lynched two of cho colored men. The remain der will be held for trail. The object of the lynching was to terrify the col ored men, and it has been accomplished. Whilo the Democrats here all deprecate the tendency to give a political color to the outrage, and attribute the lynch ing to a public feeling among the whites that crime ought to be punished with out waiting for legal delay, the colored people all understand what Is meant by it, and have taken Avarning. The colored men who were lynched were respectable, law-abiding citizens, and active Republicans. SOUTH CAROLINA. The Bed Shirt Campaign. Washixgtom, Sept. 20. The red shirt rifle club and horse pistol compaign in South Carolina is progressing favorably if local accounts in Democratic news papers in that State may be relied on. At a Democratic meeting in Newberry we are informed that 1,000 red shirts were in line. A writer in the Charles ton News and Courier describing a Democratic meeting at Union in that State, says : "If one desires to see red shirts, with variations, lie must come to Union. There were red shirts straight, with no trimming, and shirts embroid ered, 'red shirts circled with white,' blue, black, and yellow, and red shirts which wero not red, but purple, then there were men swathed in red flannel or armored in voluminous red Han cock and English hankerchiefs, and small bovs with crimson trimmincs and girls with rosettes. I have heard condensed and concentrated yelling better done, but, in general, scattering, hold-the-fort yell, Union is not to be excelled. I don't think I mind hear ing a yell one minute of the day. At 10 :30 the procession started on "a tour of the town. There wero about o00 in it, mostly red shirts, on horseback." From all accounts that reach here as to the campaign in South Carolina, it is believed that the Democratic majori ty will be of extraordinary proportions. The Republicans are without rifle clubs. Rrowx 0x102? Stew. Take some fine chopped suet and melt in a sauce pan, add a good many onions cut right across, and partiallv brown them, sprinkle a little flour over them and stir well adding warm water to make gravy. Put in pepper and salt, ami whatever pieces of meat, cut in strips, with a little kidney or liver, you re quire, or brown these also with onions; let simmer about ten minutes or so, and then place carefully well peeled pota toes on the top. This stew must gen tly simmer till done and not be stirred about, so that the potatoes come out whole. A few spoonfuls of catchup to be added some minutes before serving. It is light of digestion and very nour ishing for summer. A woman at Carson, Nevada, is said to have undertaken to refrain from speaking for forty days. The report runs as follows: 'he began at 9 in the morning, and at 10 her pulse was so feeble from exhaustion that the physi cians feared she would die by noon. At 11 her heart beat twenty-six a min ute, and her respirations were hardly noticeable. Her friends here urged her to discontinue her terrible task, and told her some cossip about a neighbor. On nearing it she immedi ately rushed from the house, and, going across the street, met a lady friend and talked to G last night, and is now fully restored." Hurrah for our Daddy's Dollars. "Wasiiixgtox, Sept 18. For the week ending to-day, here have been eight hundred and twenty-two thous and four hundred and ninety-six stand ard silver dollars shipped from the treasury department for distribution. During the same period of 1S79 there were three hundred and fifty-nine thousand four hundred and ninety three shipped. A TEEBTBLE INDIOTMENT. A Texan Chapter Prom General Hancock's History. The Austin (Texas) Wochenllatt has just furnished its German readers with a chapter of history which is impor tant in this connection. In 18(58 a State Constitutional Convention assem bled in Texas, and appointed n com mittee to examine into and report upon the condition of that State as to the notable increase of crime and the non execution of the laws. On the 28th of June, 1SC8, tho committee reported, and its report was subsequently unan imously adopted. The following con cluding part is quoted from the Woch enllatt, and may be found on page 190 of the proceedings of the Texas Recon struction Convention of 1SGS: It is by no means difficult to locate the responsibility of tho increase of crime. Ref ore General Hancock assum ed command of the Fifth Military Dis trict there existed, to a certain degree, somewhat of a regard and respect for human life in Texas. The numerous arrests of criminals by the military au thorities, and the prospect of an exam ination and trial before a military court, imbued bad men with a whole some fear. After the issuing and pub lishing of general order No.' 40 by the head quarters of the Fifth Military District, dated Nov. 29, 1807, a decided ly different and troublesome spirit manifested itself all over the State. This order was interpreted and expound ed as proclaiming military authority subordinate to civil law in the trial of criminals, and therefore it was regard ed because criminals have little fear and respect for civil authority in this State, as we already demonstrated as a sort of protection or license for the continuance of all sorts of outrages and crimes. This was proven and demon strated in public speeches, and by the defiant tone of the rebel press, but far more through the unopposed - perpetra tion of the most terrible outrages. During the three months of the admin istration of Governor Pease, protected and strengthened by Generals Sheridan and Mower, before General Hancock took command of the district, the mur ders committed in Texas averaged nine per month. The number of murders during the other months of the same year averaged eighteen per month, and if wo base our estimate upon the official report of tho Freedmen's Bureau, the average number of murders committed in Texas since the 1st of December, 1S07, reached the astounding figure of thirty-one per month. During the first month of Hancock's administra tion (December, 1S07,) thirty murders were reported by tho Bureau. In other words, the "peace administration" of Generals Hancock and Johnson had to be held responsible for double the amount of murders that were commit ted under the Sheridan-Throckmorton Administration, and for three times as many as were committed by the Sheri-dan-Pcase Administration. Resides this, the report shows that since the inauguration of the policy of General Hancock, supported by President Johnson, the murders committed in Texas have reached the average of forty-five per month, and that during the last five months they have reached the average number of sixty. And it is the commander of thej Fifth Military District who is responsible to the people for at least two-thirds of tho 3.0 murders which have been com mitted in Texas since December 1, 1SG7. Authorized by law to uphold the peace and to protect life and propertv, having his disposition the Army of the United at States to uphold tho authority of the law, Hancock has neglected to perform his duties. He has refused to punish murderers; he has refused the requests of the Governor and the General com manding in Texas for the creation of stronger courts, and was deaf to the wail of terror-stricken, persecuted, and loyal men. And knowing what we assert and maintain in the face of tho civ ilized world, we place the cause and the responsibility for the deaths of hundreds of loyal citizens of Texas upon his (Han cock's) shoulders. It is a responsibility that should coverhis name with infamy and his memory in years to come with curses and execrations. The responsi bility of tho Government and of the citizens are mutual and co-relative. If the latter promises loyalty and obe dience, the former is obliged to protect him. And for us individually, and in the name of all white and black loyal men, we proclaim that we have always been true and steadfast in our attach ment to the Government of the United States. In the face of all persecutions; in the face of the rope, and in the face of all conceivable and inconceivable dangers, we stand true to our fidelity to the Union. If there are people on earth who have a right to claim the protection of the Government, they are certainly the loyal citizens of Texas. And particularly now, while the Gov ernment has the power to grant us pro tection, we demand it against the wrath of those who persecute" us because of our fidelity to the Union cause. May the responsibility rest wherever it will, wo say, openly and freely, that this protection has not been granted us. The committee recommend the passage of the following resolution: Resolved, That the President of this convention is requested to cause a copy of this report to be forwarded to the President of the Senate, and the Speaker of the House of Representatives, so that Congress may grant us the assis tance and protection to which, under the circumstances, we are entitled.

Stdixkk, Every member of this committee had lived in Texas from fifteen tn twenty-one years, and so personally knew, by long-experience, the facts of the situation. The document furnishes a significant commentary on General Hancock's peace policy and "civil ad ministration." It was written and adopted twelve years ago, at a time when General Hancock was not a Pres idential nominee, and when its present useiumess could not have been fore seen. Cora L. V.

Why the Needle Points Northerly. A San Francisco gentleman lately wrote to the Superintendent of the U. S. Coast Survey, Professor C.T. Patter son, asking the reason why the mag netic needle "points to the north. In reply Professor Patterson wrote as follows, and possibly many more than the original inquirer may be glad to read his simple statements of the facts of the case: The reason why the needle points in the northerly direction is that the earth in itself is a magnet, attracting the magnetic needle as the ordinary magnets do; and the earth is a mag' net as the result of certain cosmical facts, much affected by the action of the sun. These laws have perodicities, all of which have not as yet been de termined. The inherent and ulti' -ite reason of the existence of any fact in nature, as gravity, light, heat, etc., is not known further than it i in harmony with all facts in nature. Even an earthquake is in perfect harmony with, and the direct resultant of, the action of forces acting under general laws. A condensed explanation in regard to the needle pointing to the northward and 'southward is as follows: The magnetic poles of the earth do not coinside with the geographical poles. The axis of rotation makes an angle, of about 23 degrees with a lino joining the former. The northern magnetic pole is at present near the Arctic circle on the meridian of Omaha. Hence the needle does not everywhere point to the as tronomical north, and is constantly variable within certain limits. At San Francisco it points about 17 de crees to the east of north, and at Calais, Maine, as much to the west. At the northern magnetic pole a bal anced needle points with its north end downward in a plump line; at San Francisco it dips about 03 degrees, and at the southern magnetic pole the south end points directlv down. The action of the earth upon a mag netic needle at its surface is of about the same force as that of a hard steel magnet. 40 inches long, strongly mag netized, at a distance of one foot. The foregoing is the accepted ex planation of the fact that the needle points to the northward and south ward. Of course no ultimate reason can be given for this natural fact any more than for any other observed fact in nature. How to Make IToss Baskets. Very beautiful baskets for holding flowers can be made of the long and more feathery kinds of mosses. "We have made them often, and never do either garden or wild flowers look more lovely than when clustered upon a ver dant border of that most delicate and beautiful material, which, by proper management, may be made to preserve its freshness and brilliancy many months. "We will here give directions for their manufacture. A light frame, of any shape you like, should be made with wire and covered with common pasteboard or calico, and the moss, which should be first well picked over and cleansed from any bits of dirt or dead leaves which may be hanging about it, gathered into little tufts and sewed with a coarse needle and thread to tho covering, so as to clothe it thick ly with a close and compact coating, taking care that the points of the moss are all outward. A long handle, made in the same manner, should be attach ed to the basket, and a tin or other ves sel, filled with either wet sand or wa ter, placed within, to hold the flowers. By dipping' the-whole structure into water once in three or four days, its verdure and elasticity will be fully pre served, and a block of wood, about an inch thick and stained black or green, if placed under the basket, will prevent all risk or damage to the table from moisture. To make such baskets af fords much pleasant, social amusement for childien, who will find a constant ly renewed pleasure in varying their appearance. A Nice Bed Covering. "White bed spreads are the nicest out side covering for a bed, as they can be easily washed, and, when clean, are al ways as good as new. A very pretty design for one is made by taking two breadths of unbleached, forty-inch cot ton cloth, and sewing it together in the middle. Five yards and a half is a great plenty. A box of stocking yarn, Xo. S, is needed. Sew the cloth on quilting frames as you would a bed quilt. Stretch it smoothly, then with a chalk and line mark it corner-wise, in diamond form, having the checks about an inch and a half in size, then with a large needle, and a yard of cot ton yarn threaded, take a stitcii an. inch in length, bring the needle back half way, keep the stitches close to together," so that it will look like a small cord; it is very rapidly done, if you like to do it. A knot in the center of each diamond looks pretty. A row of Roman heraldry all round tho quilt is a pretty finish. A hand hem finishes up the spread, and it is a nice, durable article that will last for years; is easy to wash and is as heavy as is needed. Ex. A Lover's Eevenge. "When James Lick was a young man lie fell in love with a miller's daughter in Pennsylvania. Young Lick faced the stern old miller and asked for the hand of his daughter. Xow, James was a poor young man, but honest and in dustrious, and withal full of pride. The man refused to grant James' request, and advised him not to marry until he had a competency to support a wife. These remarks were rather humiliat ing to young Lick's pride, and with emphasis he replied : "Sir, I shall see the day when your boasted mill would not make a respectable wheat bin for one I shall own." Yeais passed and James Lick erected in Santa Clara county, Cal., a mill, the wood-work of which is solid mahogany. Shortl after its erection he had photographs taken of the inside and outside of his mill, and sent them to the miller who had refused him the hand of his daughter. Spiced Apples. Eight pounds of apples pared and quartered, four pounds of sugar, one quart of vinegar, one ounce stick cinnamon, half ounce cloves. Boil the sugar, vinegar and spices together; put in the apples while boiling, and let them remain till ten der (about twenty minutes.) Boil down the syrup until thick and pour it over the fruit. Rice "Waffles. Beat together a pint of milk, the yolks of three eggs, two ounces of butter and half a teacup of thoroughly boiled rice, sprinkle a little salt and a half teaspoonf ul of soda into a pint of flour, and then sift it in. Beat thoroughly, and bake in waffle irons. A Michigan man choked to death with a straw the other day.

THE ADVERTISER believes in Free Thought, Free Schools, Free Politics, and the broadest individual liberty, consistent with the rights of others; and that every individual, South, North, East and West, should be protected in the enjoyment of those rights by the General Govern ment in obeyance to the guarantees of the National Constitution. .A. a, Local Paper, The publishers of THE ADVERTISER labor assiduously, and unremitting- industry, to make it a success. Without prejudice or .tiality for or against any particular all; and anything a newspaper can do for the advancement of the gener al prosperity, THE ADVERTISER is not only willing, but anxious to do. Beleving in Toyii and Oomitry5 and that the prosperity of the one depends more or less upon the other, we can consistently work for the prosperity of all. As an evidence that we labor to give our readers an honest paper, and the most and greatest variety of reading matter possible, we invite atten tion to the columns of our paper, and comparison as to quantity and qual ity, with any other weekly in the State not made up from the matter of a daily. We are determined to make THE ADVERTISER a paper that the people will seek for, and receive in it. Fruit Drjers.
