The BEST TINE TO ADvERTIsB.-Business
men greatly mistake their true interests
when they suppose it is economy or good
business shrewdness to curtail in advertising
at this time. For the benefit of those who
think it good judgment to leave off adver-
tsiDg entirely, or advertise to limited eX-
tent we extract the following, which we
find in an exchange paper:
A leading patron of publishing house in
one of the Eastern cities, who has been ad-
vertisipg extensively during the past winter,
being interrogated in regard to the policy OF
such course during hard times replied
"The very time of all others to crowd, sir;
give us the field when few advertisers oc-
cupy it, and we care not how hard the times
are. 1t pays US at all times, because we
know how far to go, but especially it pays
us in times like the present, when most OF
the business men of our line have taken their
hooks out of the water, thinking no bites are
to be had. We are satisfied nothing has
kept us constant run for the last ninety
days but pushing our politics through the
dull season."

Roth Byes Of Keutuoky Open.

The Unionists of Kentucky are having the
film removed from their eyes. Hear what q
letter-writer at Louisville says:s
These men say that it has long been the
avowed purpose of Tennessee to invade Ken
lucky whenever the Tennesseeans became
satisfied that Kentucky would not join in
the rebellion against the Government. This
purpose was generally known and spoken in
Tennessee, and well understood throughout
JEFF Davis's dominons. The Southern Con-
federacy have never had any respect for the
neutrality of Kentucky, unless neutrality
was construed to mean Secession. They have
Intended TO force Kentucky into the South
ern Confederacy from the beginning of the
controversy.
As winter approaches, want and starvation
begin to stare the Confederate troops in the
face. The Cotton States are pretty we'll ex-
hsusted of everything which an army con-
sumes. They must winter in some place
where food and clothing can be had, or they
must lay down their arms. They have, there
fore, concluded to make an effort to plunder
Kentucky during the approaching winter.
Now let me make guess:
None of them will winter in Kentucky
excepting those who are in prison or in
chains for their crimes, and those whose &C
cursed bones shall bleach upon the fields
where they have been slain. Kentucky al
low an invading foe to pillage her people and
lay waste her rich fields and store-housesl
Never Could you hear the curses which
the brave and honest people of Kentucky
heap upon the heads of these foes as have
done, and hear them swear by Him in whom
they trust that they will not rest until the
| last invader shall leave the State, or fall be-
| fore them in battle, you, too, would believe
| that Kentucky is in earnest.

DEATH OF BEN OAUNT, AN ENGLISH PUGI-
LIsT.--Some of our readers will be interested
in the following notice, cut from the London
Globe, Of the 10Th OF September:
Yesterday morning, at four o'clock, Mr..
Benjamin Caunt, the proprietor of the Coach
and Horses Tavern, st. Martins Lane, ex-
pired somewhat suddenly at his residence.
The deceased, familiarly known as Ben
Caunt, had long been leading member of
the prize. ring, and had for some years the
championship, which he succeeded in gaining
after many hard-fought battles. All day
yesterday Caunt was in his business as usual,
but tlshowed some signs of indisposition. He
retired to rest at his usual hour last night,
and this morning he was found dead in bed,
without having, apparently, experienced very
much suffering. During the last year or two
Caunt has been very much affected in his
mind by the loss of his license, of which the
magistrates deprived him on account of in
formation laid against him by his neighbors
of the nuisance occasioned about his house
by large crowds of sporting men, who took
an interest in the then pending prize-hghts,
particularly in that between Heenan and
Sayers for the championship, which Caunt
himself had just resigned. When his body
was discovered, at four O. clock this morning,
the time at which he was usually called,
medical aid was Immediately resorted to, but
it was ascertained that death must have taken
place some time previously, probably an hour
or two -...

A SOLDIER OF lsl2.-Jacob Rudolph, now
seventy.six years of age, dropped into our
office yesterday. He passed through our city
der General Hull. To the patriotic old man
the progress of our city in sixty years seems
like the growth Of centuries in an hour.
He has four sons now in the army battling
for the same country which he strove to de-
fend in his youth, and which he expresses
himself now willing and anxious to fight for
were he not forbidden on account of his age.
Such patriotism in these times is refreshing,
ave, glorious.

THE LATE GALEs.-We are feeling the
change of temperature here after the equi~
noctial gale, which has been severe on the
Western lakes.
The Detroit Advertiser says it is reported
by captains of steamers and vessels who
were outside during the recent equinOctial
storm that it was the seYerest experienced
for many years any like period, and it is
quite probable that we may yet hear of some
serious disaster resulting from it. The pro-
peller Iron City, which left Cleveland for
Lake Superior, was visited by the fury Of
the tempest in Lake Huron, and, amer hard
struggling, finally reached Tawas Bay waeIe

A statement from reliable source has been
MADE here, that two messengers bad arrived
from Linn Creek during the 2lst, 22d, 23d
and oath. Bands Of rebels were at Linn
Creek loading wagons with the goods of Tor
bert B. Co., known generally as McClurR,
Murphy & 90. As the rebels have ali the
wagons of the county at their command they
will doubtless haul off all the goods Of that
firm; no other firm there has been inter-
rupted, as all others are said to be good Sc
cessionists. The Messrs. Roberts and others,
of Linn Creek are said to be among the rob-
bers. VIM. O. Price, of Springfield, late
United States Treasurer under President
Buchanan, is said TO be the leading spirit
All the wagons, horses and mules In the
county are being collected and appropriated.
One of my informants states that the rebels
sunk the steamboat SitUer Lake, belonging
TO Smith Vernon, at Linn Creek, by mis-
take, supposiDg IL TO belong to Torbort &
Co. In their disappointment they will no
doubt sink or burn the steamer Alliance, be-
longing to Torbort Il Co.
The number of rebels believed to be be-
tween Lebanon, Laclsde County and Linn

hunded rebels are at Mount Pleasant, Miller

From CARRoLLToN AND WARsAw.-The
Superior brings no news of Importance. At
Calrollton matters were quiet, although re.
ports were in circulation at Madison and
other cities that the rebels had seized the
town. At Warsaw the guards were out all
night armed to the teeth, and fully prepared
for second raid upon their property. The
mouth of the Kentucky River is quite de-
possession Of Carrollton, we have every
reason to believe the rebels will, and very
soon too. There are plenty of Home Guards
and several pieces of cannon at Madison,
which can easily be transferred to Oarrollton.
