HALF of the fatigue in walking, especially
in warm weather, Is occasioned by the heat
ing Of the feet, which, in the close boots and
shoes we wear, are excluded from every
particle of air. There is no reason why
the feet should not be allowed to share with
the rest of the body the benefits Of pure air.
The want of ventilation Of our extremities
is also one provocative Of disease, and rem
ders the feet highly offensive.

THE ADVERTISING RETURNS OF THE
CITY PR ESS.

The IntelIioencer has got infected with the
itch to figure in the income returns, but falls
into the blunder of Masking its ornamental
showing" for quarter VIGOROUSLY, by
the evidence of its advertising columns, the
dullest IN Its advertising history. Thus, the
advertising returns Of the IntelIigsncer for the
five previous quarters were March 81, 1865,
$3.50; June 80, 1865, S7,651; September 3, lS65,
S5,}U7; December 81, 1865, S7,7S7; March 81,
1866, Si.C1e. These returns show the man

dnllness had told upon its advertising
Umns, for the succeeding quarter ending
June 30, 1SG6, showed that its advertising for
the quarter had been even less than during the
previous dull quarter, when its returns We're
but 81 OIs, yet In the face of all this 10 makes
the portly return of Sl5,6S3 for the uarter end
ing June 30, 1sG6 No wonder its readers held
their breath over this astounding piece of
cheek Its city advertising had fallen off
largely, il had lost the Go vernment ad vertisng,
Yet its ostensible receipts were nearly treble
those of the previous quarter!
We learn, however, that the sub rosa expla-
nation made in behalf OF the I1teiligeHcer, as to
the why and wherefore of this remarkable re-
turn, Il, that during that quarter the Intelligent
Ger was allowed pay by the Government for
some old advertising, inserted without aut hori-
ty, and for which the Government had hereto
fore refused TO pay. Some of this dead horse
advertising, inserted to fill up with, and takIry
the chances of getting pay. ran back year or
more, we hear. The iRteiLgencer's showing is,
therefore, a big sham. Ii parades its year old-
dead horse dvertisTBg wind fall receipts TO
make il appear that its bona fde advertising
business for the quarter had shot up to, and
beyond, that of any of its city cotemporarIes,
when in fact il had little more than one quar-
ter of the advertising business of the Star. As
shown by the business columns of the two pa

LOST IAROR

The rump of the late so-called "Southern
Loyalists' Convention" embracing delegates
from the non reeonstructed States, (all of those
lately in rebellion with the exception of Ten
nessee,) assembled in Philadelphia yesterday
The delegates from Maryland, West Virginia
kentucky, Missouri, and Tennessee, took the
ground that the Convention finished its busI-
ness on Wednesday, and absented themselves
from this impromptu affair. over which John
NJ. Eotts presided in place of Attorney General
Speed. A committee of one delegate from
each of the late rebellIous States reported a
lengthy address and appeal to the people of the
country, strongly favoring the extension of
suffrage to the colcred race, which was
ad opted.
This proceeding seems 10 have disguised the
border State men, and even the Baltimore
Americdn says of it:
Gan exciting debate Issued upon the reading
of the address, the delegates from the Gulf
states rearly all insisting upon its adoption
and expressing themselves in strong terms in
favor OF the extension of suffrage Nearly all
those who were opposed to this measure had
gone home, and the address was adopted by a
vote OF sixty ayes to eight nays The
who.e number of members from the eleven
insurrectiOnary States was one hundred and
forty EIGHT, and if all had been present they
could have defeated it,
The american is mistaken in its statement
tntt "a NUMBER OF delegates from the District
OF Columbia voted for the address," as only the
delegates from the RECONSTRUCTED States
were allowed to vote. John Minor Bolts of
Virginia, who presided, was one of the eight
who voted against it, and after returning
thanks to Miss Anna T.. Dickinson. Fred Doug
lass and Theodore Tilton. this bogus affair ad
journed.
If these gentlemen who are so anxious to
take entire control of the southern States, with
the aid OF the negro vote, think tt If action
will have any influence on Congress, they
will find themselves mistsken. The leaders in
that body are great deal more solicitous to
ensure a continuance of their party rule than
10 serve the negro, and have no idea OF sacri-
fcing their chances of success at the North for
principle which they have already ignored.
SO Sambo is doomed to remain out in the cold,
as there is no chance of his being allo wed to
vote vet awhile.
