XI
THE ADVERTISING ROOMS OF THE LONDON
Trafts.--An interesting sketch is given by a
correspondent concerning the advertising rooms
of the great London " Thunderer :"
Turn to the counter; there is a wide space
beyond, and many clerks, writing, always
writing. Four favored, or unfavored ones—
we know not how to deem it—sit on thrones
behind the counter, to take the tribute of the
advertising suppliants; from these four we
may choose our oracle and judge, but it matters
little which we take. How very silent is the
room I scarce any sound, but the clink of
money and the low uttered fiats of these throned
arbiters of advertisers' fates.
Of no avail is remonstrance here; the ad
vertisement has hardly reached their hands—
scarcely has time elapsed to skim it over—
before the quiet utterance of their judgment ;
if one should venture to remonstrate at the
charge, his lines are given back and the next
comer served; no words—they have no time
for words ; the first decision is the final one ;
we mean, of course, in the busier portion of
the day—from 11 o'clock till. 2. And how
" use doth breed a habit in a man ;" the per
emptory officers rarely or never err; seldom
will the printed lines fail to bear out their
charge; their practiced eye fathoms the mys
teries of every conceivable chirography, and
like seers of the mighty press, a field of the
type rushes back on their sight, soon as their
mild orb rests upon the scrawL
And how the piles of advertisements grow
by their side ! As they take them they give a
printed acknowledgment to the advertiser, and
he then beholds his composition impaled with
others which have preceeded, upon a wire.
As we look at the business of this office, we
wonder where it is to end. Already, in the
London season, when the towh is full, the
Times issues, not unfrequently, ten pages of
closely printed advertisements, of six columns
each, and each column a long one. Yet there
is always enough on hand for several days to
come ; an advertiser cannot expect to see his
lines in print for three days, sometimes a week,
from the period that be gives it in. We ask
ourselves why people will consent to wait so
long ; why pamper still this overgrown favorite
of fortune, paying duties to the Government,
as it does, for advertisements and stamps and
paper, alone amounting to $500,000 annually,
beside giving a livelihood to so many, many
families ?
IRON SHIPS OF WAR.-Mr. Scott Russell has
published a reply to Sir Howard Douglas's re
cent pamphlet on the comparative value of iron
and wooden ships of war. Sir Howard's opinion
is " that ships formed wholly, or nearly so, of
iron, are utterly unfit for all the purposes and
contingencies of war, whether as fighting
ships or as transports for troops." In opposi
tion to this, Mr. Scott Russell submits :—l.
That iron steamships-of-war may be built as
strong as wooden ships of greater weight, and
stronger than wooden ships of equal weight. 2.
That iron ships of equal strength can go on
less draught of water than wooden ships. 3.
That they are more durable. 4. That they are
safer against the sea. 5. That they are safer
against fire. 6. That they are much safer
against explosive shells. 7. That they are
much safer against red-hot shot. 8. That they
are much safer against molten metal. 9. That
they can be made impregnable even against
solid shot. The following resume of Mr. Scott
Russell's pamphlet is taken from the Mechanic's
Magazine:
As Sir 11. Douglas had attacked the construc
tion and sailing qualities of the Great Eastern,
his opponent first disproves his assertions and
predictions regarding her, and then states the
facts regarding iron war ships which have been
ascertained by actual experiment. Experience
has proved, first, that "when the thickness of
a vessel's side is not more than half an inch,
shots fired obliquely have glanced off the iron
vessel which would have penetrated a wooden
ship; second, that shots fired directly have
passed through both sides of the ship, doing
has damage to the ship directly and less
damage by splinters, than - would have been
the case in timber ships ; third, that the shot
toles have been as easily stopped, and more
expeditiously and less expensively repaired
than in wooden ships; fourth, that their plates
of wrought iron, even five-eighths of an inch,
are proof against shells ; that plates two inches
thick are impenetrable, even to the pieces and
fragments of shells; that iron plates four
inches and a half thick are nearly impenetra
ble to shot fired from the heaviest nature of
guns; and finally, that plates six inches thick
are practically impenetrable."
THE Naw FRENCH CANNON.—The following
are further particulars relative to the mortar
cannon to which I alluded on the 21st ult :
The tube or barrel is formed of several cylin
ders or rings of cast or wrought iron, its
longitudinal cylindrical parts affording the
means of unitng the rings. The interior of
the tube is rifled by means of a number of
projecting spiral rods, shaped in triangular
prisms. The tube can be lengthened at plea
sure. The breech of the gun is a mortar, to
Which the tube is attached, and from which it
may be detached, either for the purpose of
loading it at the breach or of making use of
it as a mortar. It is alleged that this cannon
cannot become heated, that the process of
cleansing after each discharge is unnecessary,
except as regards the breech, and that it may
be fired four or five times during the space now
required to fire any other gun once. Another
consequence said to follow from the non-heating
of the barrel of the gun is, that there is no
danger of hurting, either from defect in the
metal or from overcharge. The gun may
otherwise be lengthened or shortened at plea
sure. The inventor states that a gun throwing
a shot of 120 lb. weight may be taken to pieces
and e=yeyed on the back of a horse or mule
over roads impassable for carriages. He shows
that there is a considerable saving in the con
struction of this gun in consequence of the
tube being of open work, and of iron in place
of bronze. It may be as light as is consistent
with the resistance which its weight must
necessarily oppose to the recoil produced by
Its discharge. The inventor expects that this
gun will supersede mortars, and that every
cannon mounted on a ship's deck may be used
both as a cannon and a mortar, and a ship
that carries 40 guns may be said to carry 40
guns and 40 mortars.—Paris correspondence of
the London .Thnes.
SEALING THE FLOUR FOR THE FABSOFER.—
The Baldwinsville (N. Y.) Gazette notices that
2,100 barrels of flour are being ground at a
mill in that place for the Jews of New York,
who will use it for making unleavened bread
for the. Passover. An agent of those who or
dared this flour is at the mill constantly, du
ring the process of grinding, and seals each
barrel with his private mark in wax. Spring
wheat is used for making this flour.
THE illt.rrenv Policy. or VIRGITNIA.—The
armed and uniformed volunteer force of Vir
ginia is stated to be 2,547 cavalry; 820 artillery;
5,530 light infantry; 1,650 riflemen, being
10,547 in all armed. The unarmed volunteers
number 6,160_ There are 143,255 on the
militia rolls of the State, but it is believed that
there are really 200,000 subject to military
duty.
At a meeting of Republican candidates for
the Cincinnati city offices, it was resolved that
no applicant for a Federal appointment should
be considered in the ring for a city office.—
• Therefore the numberless Cincinnati gentlemen
whose names are on file at Washington, who
l ie bound to be disappointed, need not look
for Sympathy at home.
While watching the ice coming down the
river at Hartford, -Ct., on Tuesday, Mrs:Gaines
saw an apron in the stream. Seizing a pole,
she attempted to land it, when she discovered
that a little four year old boy was attached to
it. He was rescued insensible, bat finally
tellUNlUSted.

MRS. WINSLOW,
An experienced Nurse and Female Physician, presents
to the attention of mothers, her
SOOTHING SYRUP,
FOR CHILDREN TEETHING,
which greatly facilitates the process of teething, by
softening the gums, reducing all inflammation—will
allay ALL PAIN and spasmodic action, and is
KURE TO REGULATE THE BOWELS.
Depend upon it mothers, it will give rest to yourselves,
and
RELIEF AND HEALTH TO YOUR INFANTS.
We have put up and sold this article for over ten years,
and CAN SAY, IN CONFIDENCE AND TRUTH of it,
what we have never been able to say of any other medi
cine—NEVER HAS IT FAILED, IN A SINGLE IN
STANCE, TO EFFECT A CURE, when timely used
Never did we know an instance of dissatisfaction by any
one who used it. On the contrary, all are delighted with
its operations, and speak in terms of commendation of
its magical effects and medical virtues. We speak in
this matter t , WHAT WE DO KNOW, ,, after ten years'
experience, AND PLEDGE OUR REPUTATION FOR
THE FULFILLMENT OF WHAT WE HERE DE
CLARE. In almost every instance where the infant is
suffering from pain and exhaustion, relief will be found
in fifteen or twenty minntea after the syrup is adminis
tered.
This valuable preparation is the prescription of one o
the most EXPERIENCED and SKILLFUL NURSES in
New England, and has been used with NEVER FAIL
ING SUCCESS in
THOUSANDS OF OASES.
It not only relieves the child from pain, but invigo
rates the stomach and bowels, corrects acidity, and
gives tone and energy to the whole system. It will al
moat instantly relieve
GRIPING IN THE BOWELS, AND WIND COLIC,
and overcome convulsions, which, if not speedily reme
died, end in death . We believe it the BEST and SUREST
REMEDY IN THE WORLD, in all cases of DYSEN
TERY and DIARRHCSA IN CHILDREN, whether it
arises from teething, or from any other cause. We would
say to every mother who has a child suffering from any
of the foregoing complaints—DO NOT LET YOUR PEE
.TIMICES, NOR THE PREJUDICES OF OTHERS, stand
between you and your suffering child, and the relief that
will be SURE—yes, ABSOLUTELY SURE—to follow the
nee of this medicine, if timely used. Full directions for

is familiar in every part of this country for the purity
of his celebrated SOnis . nen SORAPPS. Mr. WOLFE
his letter to me, speaking of the purity of hi e
and LIQUORS, says : " I will stake my reputation as a
man, my standing as a merchant of thirty years' req.
dence in the City of New York, that all the BRANDT MA
WINES which I bottle are pure as imported, and of the
best quality, and can be relied upon by every purchaser,,,
Every bottle has the proprietor's name on the wax, and
a fac simile of his signature on the certificate. The
public are respectfully invited to cal/ and examine for
themselves. For sale at RETAIL by all Apothecaries and

Bead the following from the New York Courier:
ENORMOUS BUSINESS FOR ONE NEW YORE MERCHANT.
We are happy to inform our fellow-citizens that there is
one place in our city where the physician, apothecary,
and country merchant, can go and purchase pure Wines
and Liquors, as pure as imported, and of the best quality,
We do not intend to give an elaborate description of this
merchant's extensive business, although it will well re
pay any stranger or citizen to visit Coma's," Wo Le v e
extensive warehouse , _ Nos. 18, 20 and 22, Bettver street,
and Nos. 17, 19 and 21, Markettield street. His stock of
schnapps on hand ready for shipment could not lase
been less than thirty thousand cases; the Brandy, some
ten thousand cases—Vintages of 1836 to 1856; and tea
thousand cases of Madeira, Sherry and Port Wines,
Scotch and Irish Whisky, Jamaica and St. Croix Burs,
some very old and equal to any in this country. He also
had three large cellars, filled with Brandy, Wines, lec,.
in casks, under Custom-House key, ready for bottling:
Mr. WOLFE'S sales of Schnapps last year amounted to
one hundred and eighty thousand dozen, and we hope in
less than two years ho may be equally successf with
his Brandies and Wines.
His business merits the patronage of every lover of
his species. Private families who wish pure Wines and
Liquors for medical use should send their orders direct
to Mr. WoLTE, until every Apothecary in the land make
up their minds to discard the poisonous stuff from their
shelves, and replace it with WoLen , a pure Wilms and
LIQUORS.
We understand Mr. WOLF; for the accommodation of
small dealers in the country, puts up assorted cases of
Wines and Liquors. Such a man, and such a merchant,
should be sustained against his tens of thousands of op
ponents in the United States, who sell nothing but imi
tations, ruinous alike to human health and happiness.
