AN ExcEEDISGLY SUSPICIOUS CIRcUx-
srASCE.-The Nevada Democrat decently
approves Collector Washington, Of San
Francisco, for saying that he would not
hesitate to pay the revenues in his hands
to the Government which placed him in
charge Of the COllectOrship. 1t is great
wonder that the Federal officers in this
State and in this "crisis," being Demo-
Gratis, have not been libelOusly accused of
reasonable intentions toward the trusts
which they hold. Their escape is quite
astonishing, and We cannot resist the
opinion that the Nevada Democrat has
lost something by its liberaIity; its CO.
temporary Unionists will regard it suspi-
ciously, and it may be requested to un-
derstand that it was not authorized to in.
innate that Collector Washington was
determined to do what any honest man
should do.

BENEFIT OF ADvEKTIsISG.-It is often
the case, says the New York Transcript,
that men ooms Into ctr Office and inquire
for the papers phblialSed in come particu-
lar place, saying that they would like to
find somebody's advertisement They sit
down and look the papers over, and it is
often the case that they are unable to find
the desired information. Not long since,
. gentleman in this city was examining
our exchange papers to get the address Of
4 firm or some person in trade in Concord,
N. H., to which place he desired to make
. consignment, knowing it to be = good
place for trade, but not finding business
card in the papers there, to which his
goods were adapted, he made the remark
that he would ship to firm that did ad-
Sertise in another section Of the State,
although he did not ike the locality so
well. This is one Of the many instances,
and proves cOncIusiveIy that business men
should advertise in I'll the papers in their
locality, il it is nothing more than their
business card.
