ADVICE TO YOUNG TRADEsMEN.-The
CoTnhiH Magazine, the literary organ of the
best writers, and most cultivated readers of
London, gives the following excellent bit of
advice to those beginning business. 1t is
much more applicable to the ways of trade
in this country than in England, where "old
fOgyism" rules;
"Well, l say sgain and again to all young
Observation-Disclosures, advertise, advertise
and don't stop to think too much about cap
ital. 1t is bugbear. Capital is bugbear;
and it is talked about by those who have it
and by some that have not so much of it
neither-for the sake Of putting down COM
petition, and keeping the market to them
selves.
"But there must be some nous in your ad-
vertisements; there must be a system, and
there must be some wit in your system. 1t
won't suffice nowadays to stick up on
black wall a simple placard, TO say that you
have forty thousand best new hose, Just re.
ceived. Any wooden-headed fellow can do
as much as that. That might have served in
the olden times that we hear Of twenty
years since; but the game, 10 be successful
in these days, must be played in another
sort of fashion. There must be some finish
about your advertisements, some thing new
in your style, some thing that will startle in
your manner. If man can make himself
real master of this art, we may say that he
has learned his trade, whatever that trade
may be. Let him know how 10 advertise,
and the rest viii follow"

POLICE CoURT ITEMs.-The most important
case disposed of in the Police Court yester-
day morning was that of Barney McAyoy,
who was held under bonds of $3.50 to answer
the charge of grand larceny before the Court
OF Common Pleas. The testimony shows
that he had for several years past borne a
good character for honesty, having been dur
ing that time at work in the marble cutting
business on Ninth-street, opposite the City
Building. For several weeks past, however,
he had been out of employment, and had re.
Gently volunteered as soldier. He was
few days ago found with quantity of Jew
ery in his possession, which he pawned at
Mr.. Lipman's, on the corner of Sycamore and
Fourth-streets. This was identified as the
property of Henry Vincent. The whole
amount stolen, consisting of jewelry, silk
dresses &c, was valued at about 5000 by the
owner.
The case of Charles Young, alias Charles
Warner, was postponed till Monday next, the
charge being vagrancy.
Louisa White, night before last, met a
watchman in the street and called upon him
to follow her, which he did, when arriving
at saloen against which she entertained
particular spite, she picked up a bowlder and
hurled it through the window, breaking q
pane or two of glass. She then gave herself
up to the officer, and was taken to the Sta
tion. house. She looked upon the whole
affair while in the courtroom with perfect
air Of nonchGLance, and when fined IS by the
Court, smiled pleasantly and was conducted
below.
]. L. Butler, soldier on furlough, took
too much liquor the other night and when
spoken to by watchman for some trihing
offense, Immediately seized him and threw
him down, but after short rough and tum-
bic, getting to the bottom of the heap he
was overpowered and taken to the Station
house and fine of So was imposed.
There were twenty cases on the docket

This regiment, now forming at Coles Gar
den, three miles up the Licking River, is fast
filling up. The grounds selected for the
camp are well adapted for that purpose, being
near the river, and well supplied with shades
trees. A large open pasture south. west of the
main quarters affords fne regimental drill
ground. Colonel Mundy has worked hard
TO obtain the property above referred TO for
his camp, and has been TO no little trouble in
securing blankets and other equipments for
bis regiment. We think it high time the
kentuckians were "up and doing" and we
know of no regiment better calculated to
answer the desire of the nation than Colonel
Mundys. As soon as recruits are enlisted
they are Immediately sworn in and sent to
camp. There is q surety against remaining
in camp any length of time, as General An !,
derson wants all the men for immediate sery-
ice. During next week several more COM

in camp.

for that evening, but he declayed he would

how Ship Island Was Captured.

A graphic correspondent of the Pbiladel-
phia Enquirer, writing from the I. s.
ship Guard, off Mississippi City and Ship
Island. the early part of this month, gives
an account of a capital ruse played upon
the rebels, by which Ship Island was cap
tured without battle
"On Monday, October 14th, we drop
ped anchor on the inside of Ship Island, in
Mississippi Sound, the grand highway be-
tween New Orleans and Mobile. On the
western end of the Island, commanding
the channel, is fertilization, commenced
by the U. S. Government some time ago,
and abandoned for want of further appro-
priations. This fort the rebels took pos
session OF and manned it with 10000
troops. They built houses and shanties
covered the fort with sandbags, and were
in fact, prepared to resist quite navy. =
The Massachusetts was ordered up here to
''spy out the land" One day, while lying
off at distance two of the rebol steamers
came out, evidently to entice the Massa-
chusetts to come within range of the
guns Of the fort The Massachusetts
fred at them, making the Splint rs fly,
when they turned tail and ran back
as fast as possible. with the American flag
Union down, under the 'fStars and Bars. .
But that was not exactly to Commod re
Smith S liking he must with stratagem
drive the enemy from their staonghold l.
Having on board several prisoners taken
in a fishing schooner, the officers filed
their ears with stories Of large feet com
ing down to blow Ship Island into the
Gulf! Then, when they were sufficiently
impressed with the magnitude of the feet
that was to destroy them, they let them
escape. 1t worked like charm. Early
the second day after the departure of the
prisoners. beautiful scene was there to
the bsholders through tbe morning shad-
ows. The whole island was in blaze. =
The officers of the Massachusetts, describe
the effect as extremely beautiful. The
Massachusetts went up soon after, and
found that the rebels in evacuatiag (evi-
IDENTIFY in haste) had attempted to burn
the inside of the lighthouse but the fire
went out. Not long afterward the Stars
and Stripes were floating from the staff
that had been polluted by the Confederate
symbol of treason.
