This is the best opportunity that we know to sell, is that the present owner Mr. C. M. Stark is about to engage in other busi ness. jfc"It is not the polished orator who shapes public opinion, but the quiet editor, whose word's go out to the public ear without parade or ceremony. The orator may please the ear or tickle the fan cy; but the editor does mere: He satisfies the mind, and carries to every household a fund of knowledge. The orator, by burn ing words and impassioned" eloquence,, may drive men to a sense of duty; but an editor if he be true to his- profession, at tracts men by the presentation of his thoughts which appeal to the nobler qual ities of head and heart. The words of the orator drop from the lips and are lost,, while the words of the editor drop from the press, and like coined money, pass for what they are worth; if pure gold in the truths conveyed, they pass current every where. For' good or evil, the editor wields a powerlul influence. He can exalt or debase a community. Ho can advance public corruption. How important, then, that the editor should be a good man, and that all papers that convey correct senti ment to the public ear should receive lib eral support. How Advertising Affects Busi-ne.-s. The man who advertises his busi ness, if what he offers for sale is honestly what he represents it to be or what it ought to be, is constantly assisted in his business by those who have been attracted to hirn and tested him. A buyer has read his advertisement, and gone to his store or work shop, warehouse, whatever it may be, and tried what was recommended. If it has satisfied him he is pleased and re commends it to his neighbor, who is likely to go to the same place and tell his neigh bor in turn. And thus little rills started 1 y his advertisement flow in upon him from all sides, and the current of his busi ness grows stronger and wider and more rapid, and he prospers and grows rich, all because strict attention in business he added judicious advertising. J3ut for this he might have lingered on in the commu nity for years and his business would scarcely have been heard of. An Editor's Appeal. As the report that we are very wealthy lias gone abroad among our subscribers, and has made them awful slow about paying up, think ing, doubtless, we do not want the money, we hasten to say the report of our wealth is false in every particular. If ocean steamers were selling at a cent a do.en, we could not make the first pa3'ment on a canoe- The, lightning of poverty has struck us square, and had it not been for an armful of hay which our devil man aged to- steal from a blind mule, our family ould be without a mouthful to eat at the present moment. Is not this a & picture, and can you de linquent subscribers look upon-it without feeling the coin rattle with indignation in your jockets. We do not like to dun you but we must if you fail to take the hint. "It "Pais to Anvi-MfTiQi' . T1ib ia mn : Tory topartnveut of business, and no ono appreciate-its tiutfc more fully than :. 11.
