Those desiring to make purchases, will, of .course, go where they know articles which they wish arc for sale. As well might a blacksmith attempt to make a 'watch, or a white . sMith a horse-shoe, as for a merchant or -antraufaeturer to Andeavor to succeed without advertising. All should be aware that using a small space in the columns of a newspaper in stating the business in which they are engaged, is the readiest and cheap est way to obtain customers. It is an unde niable fact that princely fortunes have been made in this way, whilst many of those he ,longing to the "old fogy' school have scate 13- realized simple interest on their invest ments. It is a mistaken notion that the money paid for advertising is "just so much thrown away," and those who act in accord ance with that belief, are "penny wise and pound fooli,b." Let busbies men consult their interests by trying the experiment of advertising. It will cost them but little. Germantown Tetegrapit sensibly remarks, that using the slang terms of Abo i tionikt, Loco Foco, Black Republican, Dark Lantern, &c„ in respectable journals, is in very bad taste, and should be discounte nanced. Politielan , , as a class, do not stand on such elevated ground as to be above the daily application of terms having. a ten dency to lessen them in public estimation. When the occasion calls for it, we like to see strong, entlihatic, and truthful language in t-lifted in, without mincingor hair-splitting. the truth and the facts uttered in a frank, homely speech, carry a warrant with them. But nothing betrays a vulgar pen, and a mean, concealed attempt to injure, more than the habitual use of degrading names , and phrases applied to parties, sects r. There may at times, be occasion to use terms familiar to the public, to designate divisions, 1. it these are not liable to this olljection. ; TIM BLISS or .)f.innt.w.E.----Marry when 'you like..

Russia, it was rumored, had con ceded the required limitation of territory, and agreed to the destruction of Sevastopol, Bomarsund, and Nicolaielr, but after grant ing so much of practicalimportance was ob stinately bent on retaining her shadowy pro tectorate over the Greek Christians. Re newed expressions of uneasiness were find ing vent in England at the partiality to wards Austria Misplayed in France, and a triple league between 'France, Austria and Russ'aconte nplated as pot si'de. This, how ever, nias be, and probably is, nothing more than the result of a discontented feeling arising in England from the inferior part she played in the war, and the demi ance of French inilnenee in the Peace Con ference. in England the excitement in reference to the United States had become thoroughly exhausted, and reason having resumed its sway we may hope that a bet ter understanding of the questions at is , ue between the two government.; will prepare the way for an antic:Ue settlement.

Lxerunr..—We are gratified to have the pleasure to announce a lecture by Dr. liam Elder, of Philadelphia, in the Odd Fel ; lows' Hall, this (Saturday) evening. Dr. Elder is no ordinary lecturer; he deals in profound truths, irresistible arguments, and advances his ideas—generally new to his hearers—with a clearness and force that marks his as one of the few original minds of the day. Those who heard him in Lam cater, a few weeks ago s were highly mratii lied as well as astonished at the skill die ; played in his reasoning, and pronounced the etEF-rt a brilliant one. We doubt not the llall will be crowded this evening. The Dr's subject will be "Skilled Industry," one I in which the great mass of people are inter ested. This may be the only opportunity our citizens will ever have of hearing a lec ture from this gifted orator, and those who have it in their power to attend yet slight or neglect it, will miss a rare intellectual en tertainment, if they do not regret its loss long as they live.

The distance was too great fur us to ascertain whether the "parole" mmal among "the fancy" was given for a parley, but a cessa tion of hostilities did take place—Phil's friend going off northwardly in a huff, whilst I Phil' himself, after slinking the slia , h of the I kennel from his robes, danced a grand "rig adoon" to the Washington House opposite and return, apparently highly gratified with the result. wsy-The night passenger train of can, tine at this place yesterday morning at 2,40 A.

A correc,- pondent says: "The misunderstanding has been caused by the rarest and imprisonment of an Amer ican citizen named Spear, who after seven months close confinement, during which be was not permitted to communicate in any way with even his minister or consul, was tried on the 31st March, 1854, by a secret and unknown tribunal, convicted of treason. and sentenced to ten years' labor in irons in the trenches at Therisienstndt, in Bohemia. Mr. Jackson, on the - 4th of February, de manded a properly certified copy of the tes timony said to havo'been used in the con viction of Spear, and informed Count Buol, in his note that unless he received an affirm ative reply within four. weeks, he should at the expiration of that,time, withdraw from a court where he could no longer remain with honor to his tuntry or advantage to its citizens.

ES3 TINKERING WITH xrce,Passs.- 7 -Some mem ber of the New York Legislature, has intro- . duced into the Assembly a :bill to prohibit thepublication of anonymous letters in news papers. To enforce this law, it would be requisite for every pulAsher to affi.x the full names of writers of letters- Ia many cases this would operate to prevent timid and unob trusive - -people from communicating to the public valuableinformatien. The system pro posed by this New York bill is analogous to that established in France, though not so general in its application. There, ever3r.ar tick, letter, essay, etc., appearing in a news paper, hail to be : accompanied by the real name of its author. By this means a news paper is stripped of its impersonality. The essays in its editorial space assume only to be the expression of individual sentiment, and not the reflex of public opinion, or the the voice of reason, justice or good taste.
