This . - has tho reputation of selling 'Killer goHpery cheap, and wo would ail- Utties to give them a call while out Hgtrnrtr or Advbrtisino.—We again lay hr fore the business portion of our com munity some sow remarks on the abovo namod subject, wbiob all will do well to tako hoed thereof “and govern themselves accordingly ‘•But one thing wo do know, and all close observers will recognize the fact, and that Is, that wbon times are flash and trade brisk, anybody can sell goods ; bat wbon they are dull the keen, wide-awake, rnake overy-point-eut man reaps all tho fruit while the slow, plodding man sits in a cor ner and sucks his thumb, and his goods rot on his shelves. s' “What does the wide-awake man do in dull timos ? Wo will tell you. He adver tises mo A than in brisk times; and keeps his wares, by all moons possible, before the public, floods advertise themselves in good times; but In dull times, they need thrown around them the halo of printers' ink. ‘•There are always some too stingy and ,iincise to advertise; and those who do freely, gather all the loose change. “We lay it down a safe proposition irrefu table, almost amounting to an axiom, that no man ever yet lost anything by adver tising, if he had anything to sell; and flhe duller the times, tho greater the necessity for using printers’ ink. “Now the statements we have made in this article the most astute business men will sustain. All thoso who have amassed immense fortunes ascribe their success to this system. “Would you know tho medium, the one that will bear your messngo to more hearers than any other? Then hold your ear close : It is tho Daily Press. ‘A word to the wise is sufficient.’ ” An Old Song with New Words.— A correspondent of the Atlanta New Era gives tho following words to the old, but ever popular, air of “Ben Bolt Oh! don’t you remember the boys, Bill ltoss, Tho boys with their noses so red, Who drank with delight whonever they met, And always went drunk to bed? In the old churchyard, at tho edge of the town, In a corner obscure and alone, They have gone to rest, and the gay young sprigs Have dropped off, one by ono. And don’t you remember the jug, Bill Ross, And the spring at the foot of the hill, Where oftentimes we’ve laid in thehutsum mer’s day, And drank to our utmost fiil ? The spring is filled with mud, Bill ltoss; The wild hogs root all around; And tho good old jug, with its whiskey so sweet. Lies broken and spilled on the ground. Oh ! don’t you remember the grocery, Bill Boss, And the bar-keeper kind and so true, And the little nook at the edge of The bar, | t Where we drank all the whiskey he drevV? Tho grocery is burned to the ground, Bill Ross, The bottles are cracked and dry; And of all the boys that sproed it then, There remains, Bill, but you and I. Fire in Newberry, S. C.— The fol lowing lottor gives a brief account of a re cent fire in Newberry, S. C., in which we regret to learn that tho office of the Herald was entirely consumed. We tender our symputhios in his troubles, and hope that wo may soon bo nblc to herald his success in re-establishing his excellent journal: Newberry, S. C., June 19th, 1566. Friend Ptif/hc- —We have sustained a serious loss; the office of the Herald being consumedT>y fire on Monday inorniog, 18th. It originated in a cotton shed, at 3 o’clock, and before the citizens could be aroused it had gained much headway. A portion of three squares was destroyed, including some fifteen stores, and many dwellings. I have not formed an estimate of the loss.— Much was taken from the stores by Freed men, who became, toward the close, a little unruly. t Information Wanted.— Mrs. Eliza Tweedy left her home in Hickory Wythe, Fayette county, Tenn., in the month of March or April, taking with her two little children, since which tirao nothing has been heard from her. She was suffering for some time past with symptoms of insanity. His relations are much distressed about her. Papers throughout the South will confer a great favor on her distressed friends, by giving this notice an insertion. Address B. Wellman, box 1351, Indianapolis, In diana.—Hcmpliie, Tenn., Appeal.
