The South and the NorthMest.

The South and the Northwest.
We are pleased with the sensible and practical
views of c. G. Baylor, ESQ.,, the subject of the
prosperity of the South, and we trust they may
receive the attention of the whole country. He
asks for no quarrel no lliberal rivalry between
any sections. He points to industry as the means,
and independence the result We quote from
his Milledgevie speech:
81 hold internal improvement, and commercial
alliance with the Mississippi valley, and particu
larly the great Northwest, to be of the gravest
importance to the South. The connexion of the
Savannah and Tennessee railway with the Chi
cago and Mobile railway, at the mouth Of the
Ohio, will complete one great chain. line of
steamers then, from either Savannah, or Mobile,
or Charleston or from all three places, conccn-
trating at the mouth of the Rhine at Rotterdam,
or at different points, say Antwerp, Bremen Ham
burg, and Havre, would give the desirable Euro
pean terminus to our improvements. Unless w
have some such direct communication with Eu
rope, we will be building railroads for the North
. The connexon Of the South with the North
west will have another effect. 1t will establish
commercial sympathy hence social, hence politi
cal Commercial concentration is the first steI
to political and the present concentration Mt New
York is being felt every day upon Congress.
The outside money pressure is tremendous
and from n residence of some years in Washing
ton, knou that the commercial influence of the
North is almost irresistible. No measure, either
private or public, calculated to advance Southern
commerce, IF deemed an the lcoy Of New York, can
per possibility pass. 1t is an impossibility. The
appropriations to steamers, and the commercial
disbursements of government there, nre well
known.
"By this concentration Mt New York the States
are separated from each other having little or no
ntercourse-becoming, rs foreign provinces, often
hostile. What knows Illinois of Georgia? If
the Illinois merchants were to come to Savannah
to sell and buy, if we had cheap and speedy rail-
road communication with each other, does any
one doubt that better feeling would prevail
Half of the present agitation originates in the
profound ignorance of different sections of each
other These railways are iron bands to bind
this Union together And the South would fnd
in the Northwest q natural and friendly ally
Let Southern men look to this. Every North.
western railway running South or connecting
with US should be promoted.
ADVERTISING. increases old business and
creates new Who have arisen to wealth, and
who have not? Every community, where there is
any sort of chance to test the matter, will show
that those have risen to fame and fortune who
have made advertising one of the cardinal elements
of their following. The thinking part of the
world make up their mind at once that he who
adyertises with proper energy and prudence,
and in the proper channels, will assuredly come
out in sunshine and flying colors. The advertise
ment personally addresses thousands whom the
advertiser would never otherwise reach or know.
If he reaches, by IN advertisement, one hundred
people, when through any other means he could
not reach ten, he ought to be convinced TINT
to advertise is the only prudent course. II costs
something; and so does the hammer of the car
penter and the iron of the blacksmith. But nei-
ther pretends to do without them, If merchant
pays $50 for m advertisement, and without look
ing further says it is money dearly laid ont he is
correct enough but if he calculates that every
one of those fifty dollars becomes the prolific
mother of ten, twenty, or fifty, or hundred
dollars, then the matter assumes q new aspect.
The merchant who chooses the right paper, and
addresses the public in the right way, will reap
immense profits The "merchant princes of Bos-
ton have, almost to man, been great advertisers,
If man wants to sell goods, he must have goods
and they must be such rs the times demand.
The man who wraps himself about in mantle Of
foolhardiness, supposing business has creative
force, and will hunt him out and enrich him, viii
