AnrEßTisiXG.—The Griffin Star says : “A gentleman who has travelled a great deal, remarked to us the oth* r day, that he considered the advertising columns of a newspaper as infallible mirrors of the busi ness of a place. The fact has been estab lished, that not only d«»es advertising and merit open the way to ortune, bur those who advertise are more liberal dealers; and, inasmuch as they keep themselves and their wares constantly before the public, it is cer tain evidence tl.at they have what »hey ad vertise. and are an.vous to secure customers whom they will exert themselves to retain by liberal dealing. We ran point to our advertising columns w ; th pleasure, and would say to our -‘riends, by all uk n> bestow your patronage upon those whose advertisements ihere appear, as they will be found to be honest, liboral-mdidcd and ac* eoimnoda’ing men in business. Mark this." And what the Star says we cau say also for ourself; and this reminds us that we beard one of our most sagacious business men observe the other day that the Press was the best advertising medium because it went into almost every family in the city, and could, therefore, bring his business be fore a greater number of people than any other journal could. He is not alone in this tespect. A great many of our business people agree with him, as our advertising columns will show; and others who have not yet taken a proper view of this subject, will, we feel sure, upon reflection, follow their example. It stands to reason then, in the first place, that it is a benefit to every body to make their business known* to the public; and in the second place, that the most proper way to make it known is to advertise in a paper having the largest cir culation. That is what the Daily Press has, and it is therefore, to the interest of the business public to avail themselves of its advertising columns. Gas and Steam Fitting and Plumb ing.—C. A. Rubbe has opened a gas and steam fitting and plumbing establishment in rear of 272 Broad street, Concert Hall place, where he will do all work in his line at reasonable terms. We take pleasure in recommending Mr. Rnbbe'a establishment to the patronage of the public. New Publication.—We have received from Messrs. Quinn A Bro.. Frank Lettley't Magazine for March, and otb*»r works. The magazine is an interesting number. Messrs. Quinn A Bros, have all the latest publications for at their d**pot, Broad street, opposite Monument str et. The Municipal Election.— We pub lish this mooning a fall ticket for Mayor and Coui cil, at ths approaching municipal elec tion, which will be found in our advertising column 4. We presume that there will be other candidates for Mayor and Council, and the people will then have an opportunity of making their selections. Plant Yol k Garden.— That is very good advice just about this time; but you must first procure the seeds, and to do this you,can go to our friend Peinble's, on Washington street, near Broad, where you can obtnin a great variety suitable for this locality. Auction Sale. —B. Phillips, 282 Broad street, advertises an auction sale of fancy and staple dry goods, ready-made slothing, and other goods, on Monday next, March 12th, 1866.
