A GONE HORSE TowN."-The Mobile Tri-
bune has the following
''Some few years ago New Orleans paper
said that Mobile was nothing but a zone
horse town." and in short period it would
be nothing but u wood yard" for through
boats. The wish was father 10 the thought
at that time, say five years ago. the population
of Mobile was estimated to be not exceeding
10000, and now no one estimates ii at less
than 10000 or A 900, and it is we'll known
that the city is increasing faster than any CT
ty in the South, Memphis excepted Yes
terday the Battle House alone fed over 700
persons, and we have been told that every
boarding house and hotel, where known, are
filled to oserfowing. A new hotels indis-
pensable, and it must be a large one, for next
years business. So much for our one-horse
town."

How TO KEEP FURs-A few days more
and furs will be superfuous, and then comes
the process of putting them away 50 that
moths shall not invade them. 1t is stated
that the best way to insure immunity from
destruction, is to pack all in trunk or box
lined with brown holland, first sprinkling
them literally with black pepper. This IS
better even than camphor, for dealers in furs
are often victimized by chronological pets,
though their goods be saturated with this
pow erful odor. Before packing away furs
they should be well beaten, to dislodge any
larvae that, despite the most scrupulous care,
may be deposited in them. The superiority
of pepper to camphor as a preservative to turs
consists in the fact that, while larvae will in
oubate among camphor, there is something
in the aroma of pepper which destroys them

One HUNDRED GIRLS in TELEGRAPH Or
YIcE--In England the business OF operating
telegraph wires has been to q great extent
placed in the hands of young ladies, who
find il a very agreeable employment. The
inland department of the Electric Telegraph
Company in London, now employs one hun
dred young ladies, who receive and trans
NIT the messages from all parts OF the UNI
ted Kingdom. The room In which they are
engaged is lofty, spacious, and admirably
lighted and ventilated. A number OF long
tables are placed across the room, upon
which the instruments are placed, an atten-
dant being seated opposite each one. There
is one table for Liverpool, another for Man
chester, third for Birmingham and elias
gov, and 80 on for the whole of the chief
towns. When not engaged at the instru-
ments, the girls employ themselves with
needlework or reading. The room is IN
charge of matron. The compensation
ranges from los. to 25s. $3.50 to S6.25) per
week. Ten hours constitute days work.
A period of six weeks is sufficient to learn the
whole process of telegraphing, but longer
practice is required to impart efficiency and
rapidity of execution. There is kitchen
in which the young ladies cook their din
ners, and servant to wait upon them. with
a lavatory aud other appliances for their
comfort and convenience. The access to the
room is by staircase exclusively devoted
to the ladies, and no person OF the ruder
sex is upon any account admitted into their
department, except upon special order
To the honor of the 'far sex." the expert
ment has proved to demonstration, that the
proverbial incapacity of women to keep a
secret is a great untruth. OF the thousands
of important and valuable secrets which
must yearly come TO the knowledge Of these
young ladies. not q single one has ever
transpired. Many Of the fair operatives are
closely related to individuals distinguished
In literature, science and art.

FRIDAY MORNING. MARCH rs, 1860.

A EwsPAPER.--Several years ago, we
wrote and published the following article
1t has since '.gone the rounds" about once
year-and is now on its annual journey
through the press OF the country. Let us DC
in the fashion, and re-publish II too.
"Muny people estimate the ability OF
newsnaper. and the industry and talents OF
its editor. by the quantity of editorial mat
ter which il contains. 1t is comparatively
an easy TASK for a frothy writer to pour out
daiiy. columns of arortts-tco'ds upon any
and all subjects. His ideas may flow III
Zone weak, washy, everlasting Hood, ana
his command of language may enable MN 10
string them together like punches of onions,
and yet his paper may be meagre and poor
concern. But what is the labor and the toll
of such man who displays his "leaded mat
ter" ever SO largely, to that imposed on the
iudcous, well informed editor, who exer-
cses his vocation with an hourly conscious
ness Of its responsibilities, and deyotes him
self to the conduct of his paper with the
same care and assiduity that a sensible law
yer bestows upon a suit, or humane physl-
elan upon patient, without regard to show
or display. Indeed, the mere writ'ny part OF
editing paper, is but a small portion OF
the work. Theindustry is not even shown
there. The care, the time employed 10 Sc
lecting, is far more important; and the tact
of good editor is better shown by his selec-
ton than anything else; and that we all
know is half the battle. But as we have said,
an editor ought to he estimated, and his la
bors understood and appreciated, by the gen
eral conduct of his paper-its tone-its tenn
per-its uniform, consistent course-its
principles--its aims--its manliness--its dig
nity--its propriety. To preserve these as
they should be preserved. is enough TO occu-
py fully the time and attention OF any man
If to this be added the general supervision
ofthe newspaper establishment. which most
editors have TO encounter, the wonder IS
how can they find time or room to 'or'te

Commonly known rs


EXCELSIOR DEBURG,
CONTAINING Ammonia, per Ct; Phosphates,
4 81 per cent composed of 700 pounds OF No.
| PERUVIAN GUANO, and 1900 pounds of SO
LUBLE PHOSPHATE OF LIME, Potash, So
da, and Magnesia, forming the most concentrated
and durable FERTILIZER ever offered TO the
Farmer, combining all the stimulating properties
of Peruvian Guano, and the durable fertiizing
properties of Ground BoBes-supplying an album
darce of Ammonia for any crop and all soils, land
in Il perfectly fixed condIton-not volatile, and
passing of with the first crop as with Peruvian
and other Ammouiacal Guauos, but stimulating
the crop TO which 1t is applied, and ali succeeding
ones, giving to poor, worn out and unproducuye
soils, new life and yigor.
1t furnishes to the soil Soluble Phosphate of
Lime, (Bone8 dissolved in Sulphuric acid in a
perfectly available form, ready food for the plant
at once; fact of great importance to the Farmer;
as the immediate action and efficacy of all ma
nures depends entirely upon the solubilty of their
phosphates. Bones are alone used IN the manu-
facture of this article avoiding altogether the use
of the so-called Phosphate GuanoS, consldera-
bic portion of whose PhoSphates are OF Iron ana
Aiumuiea, which are utterly TalueleSS - the
Farmer.
The EXCELSIOR also supplies to the SOIL Pot
ash, Soda, and Magnesia, which are extracted
from it in the growth of all plants; and must be
returned, or the soil will become impoverished
and exhausted Notwithstanding the application Of
Guano and other ManureS deficient in Alkalies
This article has been tested for several years
past with Peruvian and other Guanos, and now
ranks with those who have used it, as aiirst class
Manure for any crop common to this region. Nu-
merous certificates to that effect furnished on ap-
plication.
Every package is warranted to be uniform in
quality, and to contain by analysis, the standard

VINO ~ rHB GENUINE sENARIrAs ION
Monday last. they had our friend at the
corner-the Good Samaritan man, mp be.
fore the Sixth District Court, on charge Of
selling for the genuine, spurious recipe
for making the only effective balm Of Oh
lad. We have no report Of the proceed
inp. and cannot consequently speak Of re
merits of the case. The fact &c his being
acquitted, carries with It the con viction Of
innocensc. That he did sell recipe for
compounding the oil, IL admitted but the
question could not be fairly disposed Of on
its merits, because the law could not de-
termine, whether the article itself, sold By
the Samaritan man Is the genuine, or that
referred TO In the recipe. We reeollect
that Doctor Killmore, who had rival
shop for the sale Of Samaritan, on the fair
ground, took occasion in his speech to the
public to point his finger often to our
friend at the corner, (who was also on the
fair grounds selling Samaritan In sugar
loaf hst) and made no scruple to pronounce
him a humbug and his medicine bass
imitation Of the onig genuine. This
matters not-people are daily being rub
bed with IL, and find relief. There was
gentleman in our front office yesterday
who swallowed q fsh bone last week
which lodged in his wind pipe. After
allowing the Doctors 10 fish for Il with all
manner Of ugly looking pullicsns, he rub
bed himself over the region Of the liver
with the Samaritan and the bone came ont
just below the ffth rib. This Is fsct.
