It i« a dissertation on advertising, not on y the advertifing of business, but the adver tising of everything goou. It is auotber form of the injunction to let jour light shine Mr. Con well believes in the use fulness, not to cay duty, of advertising, and has sotae very wise and useful ideas on the practical side of the subject, both as to business aud philaulhropby. The title of the lecture arose from the remark once made by a patent medicine proprie tor, of a pious and charitable disposition, who, having made a vast fortune by ad vertising, exclaimed that he would give ♦5,000,000 for the privilege ol having this inscription placed on the face of the moon, "F.

He kept that up for four years, and at the end of that tinn he was so well and favorably known in hi* town that he got the Congressional nom ination unanimously, wa< elected and be may remain in Congress as long as he lives if he so desirec." Mr. Conwell said that he would not givo Hie name of the Con gressman, but repeated that ho had heard the story from such a source that he pro nounced it absolutely true. Wheelmen at Evans City.

Lamb a passenger by the American Liner ' Kensington" writes a few particulars of the third voyage of that ves sel across the Atlantic before and during the equinoxtial gale which overtook it when a little more than half way froui Liverpool to Philadelphia. "We left Liverpool during very fine weather at 3 o'clock on Wednesday Sep. 5. \Ve had variable winds, hazy but pretty smooth sea for the first throe days which on the Bth changed to a brisk wind and strong north swell; the run was being sustained on a Southerly course, averaging 375 miles per day. Ou Saturday the linsk wind continued, with a strong north swell during the day, and early on Sunday mor ning we ran into a most violent gale, the barometer lalling so rapidly as to elicit the remark that the bottom might have been knocked out of it. The sea ran mountains high during Sunday morning, aud some times it wa impossible t» and*;- tain from which quarter the wind was blowing. The noble Kensington shivered with the great volume of water which dashed over her and presented one of the grandest sights I have ever seen or even read of. There wa* a mist all round and the speed reduced; bags, trunk» etc: were being shot across the staterooms as the great vessel rolled from hide to side, aud the screw was lifted out of the water con stantly. With pale faces and agonized looks, many passengers were in terrible suspense, not daring to converse, arid lor many hours during that, awful time they did not know what might happen During the afternoon the gale moderated with a brisk south west wind blowing The Cap tain stood on the bridge, and with the aid of skillul officers, piloted us to safety through the storm, one of the worst ex perieuced on the Atlantic. The Kight Rev. Bishop Whitehead of I'ittshurg conducted the service during the evening and it was with great difficulty he could maintain his equilibrium as the great yesiel appeared to rock about like a cork on those mighty waves. The Kensington carried 225 Saloon and 700 Steerag.i passengers. The Markets. BQTLKK MAUIiKTS.

Main St., Butler, Pa. Early Fall ~ ANNOUNCEMENT. Never in the history of this country was clothing so cheap as now. The hard times of the past year were the means ot bringing the cost of raw wool down to a level with raw cotton. Labor suf fered correspondingly. The manufac turers were anxious to unload their big stocks 011 hand, and consequently we had opportunities enough to buy our fall stock at our own prices. We bought lots of them and bought them cheap. We intend to sell lots of them and sell them cheap. Everything is quoted at astonishingly low prices. Call on us when in town.
