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.”
