Historical Queries Answered.
Was Henry II. a crafty sovreign?
He was era ty in that he married
the divorced wife of Louis VII. of
France, Eleanor of Aquitaine in six
weeks after the divorce was granted.
By this maniage he gained seven
provinces of French teritory.
Were his orders “unreligious”?
The quarrel between Henry and
Thomas a Bucket originated in the
refusal of the latter to aotce to the
constitution ot clarendon, 1104, by
which all power, civil and ecciesiasti
cal, was concentrated iu the King.
According to the Romish church, at
that time Henry was ex!ready “unre
ligious” and in danger of J apa! ex
communication.

AN HISTORICAL REMINISCENCE
Of Hie Days when Orlcaus was Griffin’s
Principal Street
When Gtiflin was tiist settled, all
in the woods, A. B. Dulin. a very on
ergetie and persevering man, set
tied on Broadway street at w hat has
since been known as the Rook Steps-
He was a large dealer in cottou. A
large portion of the cotton that
came to Griffin then came in ou Hill
streei. consequently Squire Dulin
bud much trouble in commanding
the amount of cotton ho wished to
handle. New Orleans street at that
time fora considerable d'stance was
a quagmire. Squire Dulin determin
ed to have it made a good sireet at
his owh expense, he hired an Irish
man aid had chestnut timber got
and erbeswayod the street and lb»n
bad it covered with dirt until it be
came a firm street. He opened it
out to the Meriwether or Flat .Shoals
road Befog a shorter route, it
turned a large portion of the cotton
into New Orleans street, which caua
ed several business houses and three
-cotton warehouses to be built on
that street.
The route into Bill street then
was beyond whore W. H. Powell,
Eiq., now lives. The property owu
ers on Hill street saw that Squire
Dulin, by opening New Orleans
street, had gotten largely tho ad
vintage of them. Tbreo men, L. IL
Brewer, Esq., and two others, bought
several city lots expending sevoral
hundred dollars and opened a new
street now known as Meriwether
street, and intersected Orleans street
neat Dr. Darnall’s place, which con
vcoient street again induced the cot
ion haulers to divide their cotton
liberal!" with Hill street. Tbi-> tri
auggular streof, although it had been
beneficial to the city as well as to
the public, was a heavy loss to L.
R. BrefVer and his associates.
New Orleans street for some years
was the grand cotton emporium for
Griffin. In the year 1859 it was
common to see fifty wagons loaded
with cotton standing on that street
at one time. In tho year 1859 Gtif
tin received 57,000 bales of cotton,
perhaps 40,000 of which was receiv
ed in the three warehouses ou New
Orleans street.
The three houses were owned and
operated by P. A. Lawson. -Jones
Phillips & Co, and 8. W. Blood
worttw it is well remembered by
one oftb« party, that one day the
thiee houses teneived a thousand
bales of c- tot - The war between
the States cut short the business of
Grttliu and mined Orleans street
and iho lu iness again was concern
trated on Util street. New Orleans
street ts row reenpied bv the Geor
gia Midland A Gud railroad, the de
pot being erected on ibe plat of
ground once occupied by P. A. Law
son's warehouse. M. L. Bates &
Brothers have a large fertilizer facto
ry and cottcu ginning establishment
on the street The Georgia Mid
land connects witfc the Central and
Savannah, Griffin and North Ala
bama railroads by a “Y,” which starts
out of New Orleans street. The
railroad authorities and street hands
of Gr Win h .ve so graded and leveled
up the unsightly ground as to make
Orleans an Broadway streets two
of the most desirable streets in Grif
j fin.

Points foe Rolail Dealers on Advertis¬
ing. .
The following from tho Dry Goods
Jhronicle and Fancy Goods Review,
should be read by every unbeliever
in advertising, and profit thereby.
Cut it on' an 1 put it iu a consptcu
ons place about your desk:
Advertise in your local papers. Do
not give your advertisement exclu
sively to any one paper, bu.to all
leading ones of your place aDd eouu
ly. At tho proper season, if you
have any job lots to offer, do so in a
large display card and give tbo prices
of iliu goods if possible, so as to
command immediate attention.
When you have no particular job
lots to offer, make your advertise
ments up so as to keep your name
prominently before your customers
and the public generally.
Keep a moderate 6ized advertise
meut in }’our local papers all thh
year around, changing it from week
to week. Have attention called to
yont goods and to yourself from
time to time through local or rending
notices in the press.
Occasionally have short editorials
descriptive of your goods, business
methods, enterprise, etc. Editors
are always ready to give these to lib
era', deserving patrons. The most
successful retailers on this continent
are the most liberal and judicious ad
vertisers.
Do not cover your iight with a
half buf hoi, but say what you want
to say at the propti time, no matter
what amount of space it takes.
Too many merchants put in a
small card in a local paper and then
expect big results fiom it, never
changing i's wording from one
month's end to another. No stand
ing advertisement, unless it be that
of a quack medicine, is of any service
to the retailer. Keep ebangiug it
all the time.
To discontinue your advertisement
iu join local papers is like taking
dow ' your sign. If you want to do
bud css you must let the people
kno v where you are located and
what you have got to offer.
L the . and autumn
spring
as before tbe holiday season
sen i out to your customers and
public generally a neat souveuir in
the f jim of a circular '.hat will be

A grt-ri .e«! of money is
away iu the course of tho year by
tail merchants cot giving proper
lentioo to tha advertising of
goods and vuo. They should
cise great care in making ap
NUMBER
cards and constant watchft.’nees in
changing them.
When tho public begin to Be® that
a dealer's card is ’•. ing changed
from week to week, t,.i :.at be is
continually offering njuitihing new
it becomes only a question ot time
with them to give him a call.
Iu conducting your business make
k n point to lay aside as much mon
ey as yon will y xpend ic advertising
during the year. Calculate for this
just the same aB you v.ould for any
other necessary expense involved in
tho transaction of your business,
just as you do for rent, insurance,
clerk hire, etc., and you will find it
will pay you in the end.
No merchant' can succeed today
with the reading public without tell
ing them what be has got and what
he has to offer at special prices nn
less by advert’sing the same in the
press.
Prepare your advertisement in
just such a way as you would talk to
a customer that you are trying to
sell goods to and you w ; l! be sure to
attiact attention.
