AN ADVERTISING STORY. • Tho New Way.cn Courier ' , lets the follow ing funny story about the origin of advertising : It was in "the celestial- empire, some three or four thousbnd years before other transcribe globe 'were made, and during the - reign of Tie Long, or that of .bis son Long Pus, we nave forgotten which, that advertising came in fashion. &scarcity of the tea mop; for which the EMpe r -For was held responsible, because, as it was sa id, he consulted his own comfort more than the Wel fare of his people, in not' knOcking his head bard' and often enough when he prayed fur seasonable weather, had produced . a itifellion in a . distant pottion - , of his realm. Sacrifices fur the purpose of quelling this Ilea been offered in vain; sow's earn and dog's tails by the cord, cumbered the temples ; thousands of Jos -sea bad been smoked black with expiatory fires or fustic, but still the insurrection gathered and -finally threatened to overcloud the supreme glory of the brother of the sun end moon.- - His Majesty, finding that his gods were busying themselves about something beside his perplexities,' and having fruitlessly issued vast numbers of ape= cial edicts of unusual size arid magnificence, con eluded i(be t -to. look to affairs himself, and collect ing his Most frightful troops, went -forth to meet and punish his unloyal subjects. ' Upon- his second day's march- towards the dL't 'tact where it, Was expected that the rebels would run away, from the sight of his arms, the his -was seized with - a violent .thirst, which Ins physi clans infiiritned him could only be.asstiaged by co pious draughts of : Dohea. His majesty, with that decision of character for which he was so pre-emi nently celebrated, immediately ordered a halt,'and hall a _Superb pavilion erected under a tree, which his vuliant soldiers hail decorated with paper flags and 'artificial flowers, to make rude nature accep table to the eycsiof their sovereign, as well as to astohish the world with magnificence., The emperor's thirst increasing etray moment, as soon as he entered the tent he roared like a lion for. his remedial beverage. Tnis with the expedi -lien usual to those who anticipate capital punish meet- for remissness of duty, had been already pre pared, anti all that was -wanting to save them lrom executionlwas a vessel to serve it in. ' Here, however they were in a painful dilemma; the bearei 9f the Emperor's, silver teapot, had on, the journeY lost th is indispensable utensil, and to set any other before him was not only blaSphe- Mous, but absolutely impossible. Discovering the cause of delay, the monarch, blending authority with clemency, caused his careless servant to be decapitated in the niciA' mer ciful and agreeable manner, and then sending for a number of his chief officers, Commanded them upon the penalty of sudden death, a catastrophe equally unpleasant . -to Christians or Chinese, to bring the said tea-pot into his presence, whether it could be found or not, in the course of the suc ceeding day. • Now the army (says the mandiloquous histori an) amounted tu' over five hundred ponsund mee t beside CAW followers, and to-have grins to each individual for the purpose of inquiring whether he had stolen or found The teapot, was Ai to dishearten the most indefatigable. A ell tiger eater, with a cue as large and long as a ship's ca:. ble, finally bethought himself of an expedient, which had the happy effect of prolonging the lives of himself and brother dignitaries. He had several hundred' pictures draWn, repre senting a 111311 returning the last teapot to' the Emperor, and receiving tne reward of his honesty, a button and a_peacock's leathei ; whila - beneath was portrayed a thief running,iolf with the vessel. and pursued by a griM e i xceutioner with an uplift ed and•vicioui looltin,g meat axe. These pictures were hung Up en ditterent pules, and the compa• iiies to, look. theta ; whiic, tit . the same time, they 'tvcre informed that May would be kept March hsig,in view of these draWings, without ; meat or sleep until the teapot was In:stored to the thirsty Emperor. .• Whether through the influences of fatigue, fear, or the hopes of, lucre, the historian dues not say : but the utensil was conyey i ed_ to the novena] pa- j `villton, and in a few bouts after, the rebels were cut to Mont.:. • W hen the story was told by:the soldiers on their return home, many tradesmen supposing that tea puts were to be More fashionable than ever, had boards euabellished with these 'articles, and that there might be nu , mistake, had the name i)ainteil underneath. ' - These were;placed in front of their shops, end hence came sighs and posters. The custom once established became universal. was carried by trevellersjo other parts of the world; and when nervspaperewere invented they were seized upon as important agent to Multiply ing, and scattering these business references' and guides, which were subsequently. called ad- tertisements. i • Advertising has - now hicorno en necessary to the prosperity of all branches Of mercantile. Lind indus trial pursuits ; that Robin on Crusoo in his gar• meats of goat skins.

Of the beneficial effects of advertising. our duty to the community compete us to speak more point• idly on another occasion.' ME _ • Fs= Simmond's bolonirii Gazette. The'lnterlor of Africa. • This is yet almost si , lerra incognita. We know Europe, pretty thoroughly. , Asia has been traversed in all its length by civilized travellers. With the Geography of America wirmay - call our selves familiar.. But how little do, we know of the vast continent Which ties almost wholly.wiihin the tropieiii and of which the greater part seems allut up- as effectually against the advance of civ ilization' u if it were upon another planet! In dee:d the umountains of the moon" would le sub ject to more:accurate observation were, they, situa. ted Upon the satellite from whiCh they derive their name. The efforts of civilized, travellers have been for centuries directed to therecesses of this continent, yet four , fifths of it is. blank Almon our . maps Its whole centre is .o3e.brearl unexplored region; and the informatien .obtanzed 'by recent travellers is- one of the most aggravating kind, showing us mines of. wealth -it - is impossible to work. Before giving ihv results eif these discov eries, let us ; look upon Afar* as ,the world .bas: known it, and 'as it may be familiar to most of our readers. Egypt, an old worn out country; in. its antiquities one of the' mast interesting. places on the continent, occupies a small portion of its north western borders - The river Nile has been expfored to source by Bruce and other, travellers, who have given us some curious facts. Thertarbary -Slates occupy the northern portion bordering 04 tho Mediterranean.- south of this, and. stretching from the Nile to the Atlantic, is the great desert of Zahard. - -Along the whole western coast are 'Mall establishments or faience for trade in' slaves, gold dust, ivory, palm.oil, and other vegetable , produc tions. This trade has been need/ mor.opalized by the English until lately, but bow American enter prise has taken a Lugo portion of it out of. out hands. On this coast are the'settleinent* of Sierra Leone and Liberia, established' ass colonies for e- mancipated slaves ; but both, ;we have reason to believe, are in a wretched condition. The Eng lish posseisions are at the Cape of Good Hope.— On the eastern shore there are a number of inde pendent sovereignties, which, carry on . a• limited trade. The Latium of Muscat is pi prince of con siderable liberality end enterprise. - Quite - recently the English have pode a settlement at Men near the . moullsof the Bed Sea. -Having once obtained a foot-hold,. they, English like, betan - to push about them, and , one of their first discoveries was a river where hone was . marked upon any chart, and up this they steamed ; three hundred Miles without finding the least obstruction.• Haying now pissed round this continent let us lookinto the interior. For half a cent ury•the English governnient have been expending lives and treasure in partial Ts. placation. They have found that thiewhotetnict •efsimiatry is one of amazing fettility and beauty, abotinding in gold, and all sorts of tropical vegeta tion, There are hundreds of woods, invaluable for dyeing and araiiteetural purposes, not, found in oilier portions of the world.' Through it fur thous - pada of miles sweeps a river, from three to six Judea broad, with clear water ? and of unser passing depth, flowing on at the rate of two or -three miles an hour, without rock, shoal or eaag, to interrupt its navigation, Oilier rivers pour into this their tributary waters of soil volume. as must. have required hundreds of miles to be collected; yet they teeth scarcely to enlarge it. This ricer pours its waters in to the Atlantic, through the most nfignificent de lta in the world, consisting of perhaps a hundred mouths, extending piohably - live hundred miles along the coast, and mostly , broad deep, and navigable for steamboats. Upon this river arc scattered cities, some of which arc 'estimated to contain a million of inhabitants, and the whole country teems with a dense population. Far in the interior, in the very heart of this conti nent, is a nation in an advanced state of eiviltzu thin: The grandeur and beauty of portions of the country through which the Niger makes its sweeping circuit are indescribable. - In many , pla ces its batiks use boldly, a thousand feet, thickly covered with the richest vegetation of tropical climes. But all this vast and sublime country, this scene of rich fertility and romantic beauty, is apparently shut out forever from the rest of- the world. It is, the Negro's solo IItISSCSSiO/1. Ile need nut fear the incursions' of the white men there; for over this whole lovely ,country broods one dread malaria' and to the white man it is the °valley of the shadow of death.' , In-expedition after expedition, sent out from the English ports on the Island of Ascension, not 6ne white man in ten has returned alive; ail hive - fallen victims to this seemingly beautiful, but avifal climate. It seems impossible for any . Englishman to breathe that air. So dreSilful is it, so slll3ll the chance of life, thai criminals ‘ in England have been offered pardon, on . condition - of volunteering in this ser vice, more' terrible than that of cantering the poi son from the fabled Upas. Title country, tempt inn as it is,-Caft only - be penetrated at the risk of life ; and it is melancholy to think, that those who have given us the meagre, information, that we have, did so at the sacrifice of their liver Tux IIzAnT.—A modern writer thus heauti• filly treats of that harp of 'a thousand strings,' the humsn heart: "What an odd thing experience,is! now.turn ing over so rapidly the book of life, now writing so much on a single leaf.
