Opinions of Distinguished Buklueu Men.
"I have always considered advertising
liWnllv and lone to be the strcnt medium of
" k...!,, n,i th i,ri.,,i , w.ith
Aud I have made it an invariable rule, too, to
advertise in the dullest times, a long experi
having taucrht me that monev thus snent
is well laid out; as by keeping my business
continually before the public, has secured me
many sales that I otherwise would have lost."
Stephen Girard.
"" "Whatever success I may have had in busi
ness 1 owe mainly to continuous advertising,
and i deem it good policy to advertise long in
the same papers. From a close observation, I
am fuily convinced that it is impossible to make

rithout the facilities
es which the rress alone can
give.'' Jacob Eidgeway."
"My motto through life has been work and
advertise. In business, advertising is the true
Philosopher's stone, that turns whatever it
touches to gold. I have advertised much, both
in the weekly as well as in the daily papers;
nor have I found that those of the largest
circulation of either class benefitted me the
most. John Jacob Attor.

JfiSThe splendid little steamer, J. J.
Cadot, built expressly for the trade, is
now plying regularly between Gallipolis
and Parkersburg. She has clever and
accommodating officers, and travelers, as
well as those having freight to ship, will
doubtless be honorably dealt with. See

""lhe .Ladies depository is as
chaste and unassuming as ever, and is
still as worthy as ever. What a treas

moral sentiments, and teaches lessons of
Faith, Hope and Charity. We cannot
"conceive how a family could dispense
with it after having once received it.

DIED.
On Tuesday evening, November 15th, 1850,
at Bashan, Meigs County, Ohio, Mr. John
Mason McKenzie, in his thirty-sixth year.
Thy memory, my brother, dear,
Still lingers in my heart,
And causes oft the flowing tear
And bitter sigh to start.
Methinks I hear thy lovely voice,
Attuned to sweetest song,
Call from afar, "Come and rejoice
Amid the heavenly throng."
My brother, dear, thine image fair ;
' No longer greets mine eyes;
But unto God I breathe a prayer
Te meet thee in the skies,
And hear thy voice, that now is still
To all thy friends below;
learn the song, the joy to feel,
That mortals may not know.
My brother, dear, we love thee yet,
Though thou from earth hath gone;
Nor can our snddened hearts forget
: Thejr loved and cherished one.
My brother, dear, when youth was thine,
When hope's enlivening ray
Gleamed brightly on thy spirit's shrine,
Death summoned thee away.
O! what a sad yet glorious hour,
When thou wert called to die;
Thou trusted in the heavenly pow'r
Thy spirit soared on high.
My brother, dear, the angel throng,
Who praise God night and day,
Have welcomed thee to join their song,
While I a wanderer stay;
But hope to join that happy band,
Upon yon blissful shore,
And dwell in that immortal land,
Where parting is no more.
Chester, Meigs Co., O. D. M. Garex.
For the Pom eroy Weeki) Telegraph.
Dear Telegraph: I, with many other
Republicans, have been rejoicing over the
visit of the Legislatures of Kentucky and
Tennessee to the Legislature of Ohio,
and at the interchange of good feeling
and patriotism which took place on that
occasion. I rejoiced that, at last, there
had been a Union meeting made up of
live men, and not of broken down poli
ticians, as is generally the case. But I
was somewhat disappointed, on looking
over the Telegraph, to learn that the
"Member from Meigs," "not supposing
the Union to be in danger, at least from
any act of his, felt constrained to vote
against any such doings," and so the
people of Meigs County were not repre
sented on that occasion. Now, when we
consider that the gentleman has pub
lished the misdoings and fanatical freaks
of the South, and commented on them in
articles equally inflammatory, it is to be
regretted that he did not write, with oth
ers, to allay the excitement and ill-feeling
which exists between the two sections
of our country. True, he was not elected
to attend such gatherings, and as a free
man has a perfect right to oppose them,
but I only regret that he views the mat
ter as he does. In another column of
the Telegraph is a communication from
"Civis," who, it seems, is very indignant
because the Representatives of three ad
joining States get together and have a
good time. "Civis" thinks that because
certain Governors and Legislators did
thus and so, in matters concerning citi
zens of their own States, therefore the
Legislature of Ohio should have given
them the "cold shoulder," on their ban
ter to visit Ohio. I presume "Civis" is
one of those persons who think that the
best way to get to Heaven is to take a
copj 0f Helper's book and travel South.
XT . j .
Now 18 lt necessaT. ln order to a
Republican President in 1860, for the
Republican newspapers and orators to
harp continually on the wrong and fool
ish acts of our Southern brethren? Are
not the great principles of our party suf
ficient, of themselue.o, to carry an elec
tion? I think that they are, and regret !
mnoh that. r.nr is a diannsirirm t.
the North to magnify every fanatical act
of the South and b,ow over 48 a oafc. !
ter endangering the whole country. -
Surely, the Republican party, with its
nohje principles, can afford to be gener
ous, which is much better than being
spiteful. At least, so thinks your sub.

Additional Foreign News per Steamer
Eur op a.
New York, Feb. 24. The foreign
mails, per steamer Europa, arrived here
this morning, and shortly tnereatter, the
steamer Vigo, from Liverpool, arrived,
with the mails of the 8th inst., not so
late as the dates by the Europa, but yet
embracing many items of interest not yet
received, owing to the loss ot the mails
of that date in the steamer Hungarian.
THE LATEST BY TELEGRAPH TO QUEENS
TOWN. Teutan was stormed and captured on
Feb. 2d by the Spaniards, after a fierce
and sanguinary attack and desperate re
sistance. The loss on both sides was
comparatively immense. One transport,
containing 27 wounded Spanish officers,
arrived at Algesiras.
The artillery, camels, and all the camp
equipage of the Moorish army had been
taken. The brother of the Emperor L id
fled in a previous battle on the 31st of
January. .The Moors commenced by a
fierce attack on the Spanish advanced
posts, being repulsed, and again and
again returning .with increased fury to
the attack, and finally closing with the
Spanish battallions and fighting hand to
hand, and obstinately disputing every
foot of ground until finally defeated.
A letter from Milan says we contiuue
to receive afflicting news from Venetia.
The Austrians have sent off to the for
tresses of Moravia and the Danube two
trains, including one hundred and eighty
persons in chains, arrested on suspicion
of feeling a love for their country, not
having undergone any form of trial.
Fresh arrests are being made in all the
towns of Venetia. Every day acts of vi
olence are committed in provocation, in
order to force the people to resist by
which to have a pretext for venting Aus
trian rage.
The JLost Steamer Hungarian.
Halifax. Feb. 24. Telegraphic com
munication with Barrington was re-established
this morning, but there was no
additional information relative to the
Hungarian.
Halifax. Feb. 24, P. M. A dispatch
from Ragged Island to the Postmaster
General, says that the supplementary
mailbags for Canada and New York have
heia picked up and are in saftey, but in
a very damaged state, and are waiting
orders.
Post Master General Woodgate has or
dered the mails to be brought to Halifax
to be arranged, as the bags are burst and
letters torn.
The following is the latest news fiom
the scene of the wreck:
Barrington, Feb 24, 9 P. M. Thos.
Nickerson informs me that on Monday
morning, at 3 o'clock, he saw from the
mainland a steamer's light.
It was stationary for some time, and
he supposed she had struck on the Horse
Rake, about two miles off the Cape.
At daylight a large steamer was seen
ashore, with one mast standing. He
thinks he saw men on it when it went
over, which was soon after daylight.
The report has reached me that the
steward's pocket-book has been picked
up, having some passengers names for
"extras." I will inquire into it and re
port. 1 On Wednesday the body of a
child was found, and yesterday, that of
a man, supposing to be a fireman.
The coroner is attending to them.
. Portions of the mail and cargo are yet
being picked up.
One or the "Scare" Letters.
The following letter, purporting to
have been written by a prominet Wis
consin Democrat, is among the docu
ments laid before the Harper's Ferry In
vestigating Committee of the Senate.
It is authoritatively pronounced a for
gery, and the alleged author offers a re
ward for the detection of the perpetrator
of this rascality. The document, and
the careful manner in which it has been
kept from the public hitherto, illustrate
not only the means by which Wise was
so badly frightened, but also the gentle
treatment with which Democrats, ap
parently implicated, have been treated:
Jinksvillc City, Nov. 23, 1P59.
Dear Captain: I am personally un
known to you, but I write to tell you to
keep up good courage, don't despair of
deliverance.
Five hundred good men and true are
now leaving for Charlestown from this
State, bound to rescue you from the hands
of the hound-like Wise; they leave in
small squads to avoid any suspicion, but
will be on hand in time, with the Ohio
thousand. We will be enough for thein,
I think. Keep up yonr spirits and rely
on your friends.
Yours in the good cause,
A. Hyatt Smith.
Photographed Bank Notes.
We find the public cautioned to be on
their guard about taking photographed
five-dollar notes on the Union Bank of
Tennessee, redeemable at Memphis, as it
is understood there is a large amount of
these notes in circulation, and so accu
rately executed as to de eive good judges,
unless inspected closely. By observiug
the following, every one will be enabled
to detect the photographed note: "On
the face of the genuine bills are the
words 'redeemoble at Memphis,' in red
letters; while on the photographed note
these letters are dark brown or nearly
black." The bills are well calculated to
deceive even those who readily detect
counterfeits, but by bearing in mind
what we have said above, we think the
circulation they gain will be limited

Terrible Catastrophe Forty-Nine Chil
dren Drowned.
From the Quincy (Illinois) Herald,
we learn that a most terrible calamity,
rivalling that of the Pemberton Mill, oc
curred on Thursday last, near the town
of Hardin, Illinois, on the Illinois river,
and about twenty -five miles above Alton.
Fifty school children in attendance at a
university at that place, went out upon
the ice to play. The ice gave way, and,
with one exception, all were lost. Our
informant was unable to give further
particulars, he represents that the village
was a scene of universal mourning, al
most every family in it having lost one
or more of' its members.

Hence sick headache, nervousness, and incapacity

our own who can BUY and SELL cheaper that we adopt this system. ' .
We respectfully invite you to call and see the improvements in our Stoves, whether you
