The advertising agents of the country
aro the men who. without risk, make mon
ey on the one hand from publishers, and
ou the othor from the publishing. Why
men who havo advertising to do cunuot
communicate with publishers directly, we
aro at a loss to loam, for they certainly
have equul facilities with the agents for
comiuuuicating with the press of the coun
try. Every Peter Funk of New York
seems to dovoto liis timo to gotting ad
vantage of his fellows, nnd they seem to
look ou tho uowapnper press as their
legitimate game, and the press wheu bit
ten by these sharks is afraid to come out
and ■vmy so, when they should pass them
around. Ono-half of theso thieves,
who rob advertisers and newspapers,
we nevor notice, but ono firm sailing
under the name of Kirkwood & Peach,
sout us a long list of advertising and re
ferred us, among others, to Hoe A Co.,
tho press manufacturers of New York.
We, of course, wrote to tho partios re
ferred to, and Hoo &. Co., after a diligent
search, have failed to find Kirkwood A
Beach, and they write us that they never
heard of such partios, and that their name
was used without authority, and so inti
mating that Kirkwood A Beach are ewiu-
dlors aud frauds. Wo propose writing to
the men for whom they claim to advortiso,
and we ask our frionds of tho proas to aid
us iu exposing these unprincipled wretch
es who live by brnzeu open-handed rob
bery.
ALABAMA.
The State Journal thus bemoans the
Legislature that has just gone home :
The quiet iu and about tko State-house
since the adjournment of the General As
sembly is really oppressive. The tramp
and laugh and conversation of the passers
in aud out; the noisy debates, spirited
retorts, raps of the gavel, “points of or
der,' and state of general disordef, havo
all given place, and iu their stead almost
profound quiet sits mistress of Capitol
Hill.
Yes, we have peace, but, doar coun
trymen, at what a price! Thousands of
dollars paid out, thirty days of preoious
time worse than squandered, and by the
Speaker announced that Mr. Htephens, of
Georgia had the floor, was grandly pictur
esque. It was intimated yesterday that
he desired to say something on the ques
tion of pay members of Congress, and his
infirmity pleaded for him more eloquently
than the request of his colleague. But
it was not what Mr. Btepheus would say
that made the prospects ol a speech from
him so attractive. There was something
more heroic than mere curiosity in the
earnest desire of ftonators to be informed
when the distinguished Southerner had the
floor.
A few minutes after one the Hpeaker
gently tapped his desk, to remind the
mombeiB of their obligation not to disturb
debate, and attention at once centered on
tbo gaunt figure of the Representative
from Georgia, who occupies u desk imme
diately iu front of tho Speaker, on the
inner circle of seats. The guleries were
full of eager listeners. Under the eagle's
wing, which overshadows the clock, stood
a youth, peering down tho aisles, which
were filled to suff ocation. It was Young
America contemplating an event, the
counterpart of which is preserved on can
vass in Webster's reply to liuyno, and in
history, when Chatham inveighed against
the recognition of American independ
ence. What a sccno was this! The Vice
President of the organized rebellion, who
fourteen years ago was a member, with
out spot or blemish, of Congress, to-day
the cynosure of all eyes! How strange in
contrast with the story of Bazaine’s con
demnation, aud how passing strange in
comparison botweou tho strength of tho
French and Amoriean republics! Tho
doors loading to tho galleries are jammed;
only tho diplomatic gallery is empty, save
two solitary individuals of foroigu toilet,
i ho reporters sharpen tlioir pencils, put
ou their eyeglasses, and a hush, produced
by the gontlo tapping of tho small end of
tho Speaker's gavel, ensues.
The surroundings in tho House, and es-
pociully about the orator, make a picture
which must striko him with a sense of
strangeness. Iu nil that crowd of Kepre-
soutatives tlioro are only have a dozen
whom bo knew in his previous Congres
sional experience. Who are they? The
tall, gaunt, Indian form of Maynard, loom
ing up above tho throng ; the herculean
form of Bulliuton, of Massachusetts; the
somewhat grizzly face of Dawes, and tho
odd spectacled English physiognomy of
his colleaguo, Mr. Gooch, together with
the black haired Marshall, of Illinois, from
tho Egytinn pnrt of tho State, and S. S.
Cox, whose new name, “Dew Drop,”
sparkloN on every tongue. These six men
are tho only ones of this Forty-third Con
gress who aro familiar with tho voice of
tho Georgian and who Hewed with him iu
tho Thirty-fifth.
How curiously liis little black eyes
must havo gazed upon tho strange faces
about him ? What an engernoss on the
part of all others to catch the words us
they fall! He rises, drops ono of his
crutches iu tho aisle; ho loans heavily
upon tho other. Death tho skeleton aud
Time tho shadow puiut his picture, and
put a glossy black dross coat hanging
loosely on tlio shoulders, with u small,
cadaverous head, covered with a plum-
oolorod velvet smoking cap, from under
which tho steel-gray hair creeps. Now
for tho ear—“Mr. Speaker?” Tho first
words havo a music tinged with tho full-
vowollod Afriounese dialect ol' tho South.
The Democratic seats aro vacant; the
crowd presses closo up tho tho orator,
lie indulges in a comparison between the
good deuiugoguo who leadn the pooplo
right and the had ones who pander to
them. Ho makes a classical, thou a Bib
lical illustration. Does ho striko the key
note all expected? Does ho inviogh
against corruption, prutligucy, extruva-
guuce? Does lie applaud economy and
self-sacrifice ? '['hero is disappointment.
Most think lie has changed with the timos.
Tlio old days of ch.vulry are guuo ; the
mercenary years lruvo come, lie bus come
with them. Gifted and pure himself,
passionless and utmost disabled, ho would
have been the man to lreruld the better
day, or to renew that othor timo when
John Letcher, George W. Jones uud oth
ers of tho South gave up to the public
their service to suve millions for the pub
lic uud mako nothing for themselvos. U
was a strango scone, however, whatever
may be the sentiments expressed, tho ono
uourly parallel boiug when Chatham, to
whom the orator referred, came luto tho
House of Lords, swathed in tlaunuls uud
leauiug on crutches. Only this dif
ference exists in tho two cases—Chat
ham’s demise soon followed. Mr. Ste
phens bids fair to live uh long hereafter
aH ho bus lived since ho left here iu 1859.
Again, the clarion voice of the young
Cornot Pitt and old Htutesman Chatham,
which used to make St. Stephen’s roaon-
uut, even to the purlieus of Westminister
Hull, are in struugo constrast with the
shrill, fifo-liko, octavo voice ol' tho skele
ton orator from Georgia.
But they group about him. Tho orator
is talking the salary bill, and what can ho
say that is so marvelously attractive ? In
the centre aisle are Seuators Conkliug,
Windom, Thurman, Bogy, Conover and
others. Within almost arm s reach sits
Ben Butler. To tho roar Judge lloar,
thoughtful aud silent. A number of
members who served as gonorals aud col
onels iu both tho Uuiou and Confederate
armies form a cordon about the old man’s
desk. The Speaker is intent. He has
laid aside his gavel, for no one even whis
pers or disturbs tho good order of tho
House. AH cyos are fixed upon tho ora
tor, and yet the burden of his remarks
was that ho was not only opposed to the
repeal of tho salary bill, but did not be
lieve tho representatives of the people
were sufficiently paid lor their services
renderod. That is all. His time is out.

closer about him and give undivided at

—Several Italian newspapers report that
a number of Italian, Frenob, Belgian,
German and Austrian capitalists are about
to form a company for the purchase of
the convent property at Borne. Their in

and the convent buildings, and thus to
render the law suppressing the religious
orders at Borne illusory.
