Because you *re well known is not a rea.

so well known that everybody in whom he
awakens an interest by his advertisement
may be able to find among his acquaint¬

advertiser is reliable aud will do what he
promif es.
The truth of tlie following from an ex¬

He Did His Duty.
It seems that we were mistaken in
saying that no effort was made to stop
Monday night’s disturbance. In the fore
part of the evening Aledermau Newton
unaided succeeded in quieting the negro
element aud thought that he had sub
dued the whites, and at nine o’clock he
left for home leaving the town compara
tively quiet and beleiving that it would
stay that way. For what he did he is
entitled to the thanks of the citizens,
Some time ago, when pistol firing aj
night was becoming uncommonly com
mon, Alderman Newton introduced a
resolution to put on two extra *-ecret
police to find out and art eat the parties,
which was passed unanimously; bnt the
policemen were never appointed.
