' We have been .carrying on the Louis ville Journal between 36 and 37 years. — During all that time, we have known no man of business in the city to fail who advertised liberally. And we have known no one to succeed in any consid erable if even in a respectable degree w ho didn’t advertise liberally ! Do you tell us, oh candidate for the custom of the commuu ity, that you can’t a'ford to advertise because your business is dull ? Ah ! why is it dull ? fasten ! and we will tell you. It is dull because you don’t advertise, and you don’t adver tise because it is dull. So the vacant cir cle is complete. We tell you, if you are are doing ill, to advertise that you may do well, and, if you are doing well, ad vertise that you may do better. Set high your mark of business success, and ad vertise up to it. You can do so, if you w r ill. even in hard times. A little nerve is needed in advertising as well as in using any other effective means of success. Your men who have no more nerve than a wet rag advertise little or not at all, and they succeed little or not at all. You may suppose that we are giving advice that we think would benefit ourselves. Yes, w* do think that it would benefit us, but benefit you im m*WH©ly mors. Thick a iittU and you will agree with us. And if you do agree wdth us, be wise enough to act according ly. —Louisville Journal. [Although the Journal has been pub ’ished for upwards of thirty-six years, we venture the assertion that during all that time there never appeared an article in its columns that contained more sensi ble advice and plain truth, than the one above; and if our readers don’t agree with us, let them try' the experiment and be convinced.^-Ciß.] A Head Turned Round. —A crazy man was found at a grindstone sharpen ing a large butcher knife, and every now and then examining the edge to see if it was keen. ‘What are you doing here ?’ ‘Don’t you see ? Sharpening this big knife.’ ‘Yes, but what are you going to do with it when sharpened ?’ ‘Cut old Ren Frown’s head off, to be sure.’ ‘What! you won’t kill him, will you ?’ ‘Oh no ! I’ll only cut bis head off and stick it right on again ’hind side before, just to let the old fellow look back upon his past life ! It would take him all the rest of his li e to review.’ VV*hat a queer idea the lunatic had in his head ! And what if it were so, that every man when he reaches a certain age had his face turned round, and was obliged to spend the rest of his days in looking over his past life ! Wouldn’t there be strange sights ? Frost. —The Tliomasvilie Enterprise of the Oth says there was a sharp frost in that vicinity on Saturday night last, 6th, but thinks there was but little dam age done to either die crops or garden vegetables. RULES FOR HOME EDUCATION. The following are worthy of being printed in letters of gold, and being placed in a conspicuous position in every household : 1. From your childc&i’s earliest infan cy inculcate the necessity of instant obedience. 2. Unite firmness with gentleness. Let your children always understand that you men what you say. 3. Never promise them anything un less you are sure you can give them what von promise. 4. If you tell a child to do anything, show him how to do it, and see that it is done. 5. Always punish your children for wdlfully disobeying you, but never pun ish in anger. 6. Never let them see that they can J vex you, or make you lose your self- j command. 7. If they give way to petulance and temper, wait till they are calm, and then gently reason with them on the impro priety of their conduct. 8. Remember that a little present pun ishment, when the occasion arises, is much more effectual than the threatening of a greater punishment should the fault be renewed. 9. Never give your children anything because they cry for it. 10. On no account allow them to do at one time what you have forbidden, under the same circumstances, at an other. 11. Teach them that the only sure and easy way to appear good is to be good. 12. Accustom them to make their lit tle recitals the perfect truth. 13. Never allow of tale bearing. 14. Teach them that self-denial, not self indulgence, is the appointed and sure method of obtaining happiness. The Femandina Courier of the 10th says “the Spring weather is all that could be desired, and vegetation is progressing finely. Green peas were brought into this market last week. We regret to leam that frost on the 20th ult. did consid erable damage to fruit some distance in the interior.” The surname of a family living in Co lon, Michigan, is Thurston. The Thurs ton’s have twelve children, named as follows : Ulysses Itchicus, Leodis lphi genia, Crysthemus Andronica, Epami nondas Epaphrodatus, Achilles Lycur gus, Miltiades Aristides, Cassius Brutus, Solon Kossuth, Agamemnon Hilland, Dulcinea Dulceroda, Patroclus Antiia cus, and Wendell Phillips. That family had belter contract for the ague, and shake off some of its christenings. If you would swim upon the tide of fortune, cast yourself boldly upon that tide, and make it known that you are a living, breathiug, animated, intelligent being, bold, capable and expert in your profession, and learn this iesson : That the way to “get a little start,” is to fol low the advice and experience of all the successful men who have gone before you, by advertising liberally. Among the new devices of the day are paper pantlets for ladies. A company has been organised at Mechanic’s Fails, Me., to manufacture borders to ladies’ drawers and children’s pantlets—an ornamental ap purtenance to be buttoned to the garment, which may be readily replaced when soiled. Mrs. Wbiggles expressed her disap pointment the other day on taking up the paper thus : “ Lor’ sakes ! there ain’t a single living person dead that I know ! It seems to me there ain’t no news in this ’ere paper.” Gen. B. F. Butler has already in type a volume dissecting the reputation and military services of Gen. U. S. Grant. It is not to be published, however, at pres ent, Gen. Butler preferring to wait until Congress shall have adjourned, so that the newspapers may get full sw'ing at his brochure.
