<tbf tlailn jlreas. City Printer “Official Paper MRGFST I I n riWTUTION AW>U»I'A. liA. WEDNESDAY MORNINOw..JuIy 10. 1867 Ti» « ilf IliHlnm WrM. Mr. It. L. Uoiurv, travelling agent fir th« I)a wv Paita*, mul «l*o the ChrUliiin Messenger, will visit evmy J'tmily in Columbia, Liucoln. and Wilke* counties, during the next two months, and will advocate the interests of both paper*. A favorable oppor tunity is thus presented to advertisers, to extend their notices into the three counties named above. Not Besponsible. Th* Executive Committee of the. Mississippi Press Association says that the advertising agency of C. P. Shutts & Cos., Troy, N. Y., just now such “ liberal ” patrons of the press, is not a responsible concern, and publishers in this State are cautioned against accept ing propositions thoVcfrom, except for cash in advance. This notice is based upon a full statement from the associate publisher of the Clarion, who has recently visited Troy, and who reports that drafts upon Shutts & Cos., from newspaper men are being protested daily, and that they were not regarded as responsible by any one in that city. The authority, therefore, given such agency to act for the Press in this State is revoked, uud members of the Press Association are recommended to govern themselves accordingly. The New Orleans Bulletin adds its testimony to the above. “The advertising bills of the bouse of Shutts & Cos., due this office have not been paid, and we think the press throughout the country should be informed of the utter worthlessness of this advertising agency* Let their names go the rounds of the press.” We indorse the above statements. When it was announced several days since that the “senior partner” had dabbled in gold, and lost $20,000, it struck us that the chances of obtaining money from them was about on a par with the so called Gift Enterprise con cerns, who are so proluse in their Southern advertising, and their promises to pay. Let the Press of the South be a unit in refusing any and every advertisement from a distance, unless the parties either send on a check for part payment or refer to some good house in their city. The Mexican People. John Randolph pronounced the Mexi cans, in his day, “ a blanketed race of thieves and harlots,” and we are not aware that they have improved much since then. They arc, as the Boston Post says, a poor set of devils. Robbers, cheats, thieves, murderers, traitors, they only unite when some foreign freebooter interferes with their national rascality. Good men there are among them, no doubt; but as rare as drift wood upon the ocean. Their domestic wars have always been characterized by the most savage barbarities. When they have had a recognized government its power has been exercised in acts of trespass upon all foreigners within its jurisdic tion, and when called to account has always refused reparation. That mis erable old scamp, Santa Anna, who sold himself to General Houston, to President Polk, to Maximilian, and cheated all three, is a fair type of Mexican rulers, and no more a child of sin than most of them. The shooting of Maximilian was a cowardly act, and if any new atrocity could add to the disgrace of Mexico, his blood would sink the nation to the lowest point of degradation in the eyes of the civilized world. The very government that con demned him was no more legitimate than his own. Juarez ended his con stitutional term of ollice long ago, and Ortega is bis lawful successor; but J uarez being in control retains bis place in express opposition to the provisions of the constitution under which he pretends to govern, and will, probably, hold on to his seat until some other usurper shoots him,and thus legitimately succeeds him according to the Code Mexican. Different Views. An exchange well says that men view matters differently, according to the stand point they occupy, and particu larly at this juncture of affairs. Men may differ as to measures, and do so honestly, and those who would, on account of this difference of opinion, drag political bickering in the social circles of life betray a want of educa tion, refined sentiment and exalted mind. None but the weak would be guilty of such palpable indiscretion. —A young man called at the city clerk's odice a day or two since ami asked for a “ death warrant.” The astounded clerk assured him that he dealt in no such documents. “ Well,” said the fellow, “ give us a marriage certificate; it amounts to the same thing.” We hope that youth will catch a tartar. —The venerable Dr. Strong, of Hartford, presiding one year in the General Association of Connecticut, called upon a ministerial brother as follows : “ Brother Colton, or Bolton, will you step this way and pray?” Brother Colton rose to his feet and solemnly replied : “ My dear brother Strong, you do very wrong to be making a rhyme at this solemn time.” —Charles ICeifer, a Cincinnati mer chant, attempted suicide on Saturday, by shooting himself with a pistol, owing to a loss of SIOO,OOO, sustained by the failure of another firm. He was atili worth SIOO,OOO, but feared poverty, and so preferred death. He still lives. —Same time since a gentleman died in the town of X, who during life refused to believe in another world. Two or three weeks after his demise his wile received through a medium a communi cation which read as follows : “Dear wife, 1 now believe, l’lease send me my thin clothes.” Special Notices.
