Mbdicus. How Advertising Pay*. As the spring trade is about opening it will interest otir merchants, whole sale and retail, to learn that Mr. R. W. Wright, editor of the Richmond Jour nal, now on a t*ip through the North, tells how Edward Maliey built lip one of the largest dry goods trades in New England. He ssys: ‘About eighteen years ago Mr.Malley appeared in New Haven, and opened a small ‘seven by nine’ drygoods store on theprincipal street qf the •. city. At that time the heaviest merchants of the^street-scarcely advertised in the local papers to the en- tent of move than two squares each, and in standing advertisements for the sea son. Mr. Maliey, with a degree of sa gacity that no one else had ever dared evince, strqpk oat boldly in the adver tising line, engaging a colnmn in each of the tWec Ioeal d&ies With the priv ilege of .changing the same every week, and. making his advertisements the most readable part - of the newspapers. For this he paid eaeb of the newspapers at the rate of one~ to two thousand dollars a year The old fogy merchants stood aghast at his hardihood, and everybody predicted that he would ‘g° up’ iC has than that time—-to the very height of the mercantile ladder. His store, in a few months, expanded from a ‘seveih by nine’ room into the occupancy of the -whole building in which it was situated, and in less than a year he was doing the largest husiness of any merchant in the city.

His head was cut in four places, both legs, bath arms and his back were broken, and his body otherwise dreadfully mangled and bruised It is not known positively . that the man was drunk, though it is known that he had been drinking some, and a bottle of whisky was found after the ac cident. Some suppose that he placed himself ih that position purposely to' be killed. He had inquired of a negro some half an hour befdire, how long it would be before the train w< Martin had intended to (take the up freight train for Fgrsyth, which goes up about five o’cloek. The last seen of him by any one in the neighborhood he was sitting, on a cross-tie. The probability is that he sat there until,being under the influence of liquor, he grew drowsy, aftd forgetting his dangerous 'situation, laid down upon the track and went to sleep That is, perhaps, the most reasonable solution of the matter. The man lost his life through the influence of liquor,-and not through any purpose to destroy his own life. Coroner Dewberry was summoned and held an inquest over the remains, and th<» jury returned a vedict that Martin was killed by a freight train on the Macon and Western Railroad.
