WHAT NEXTf

The Chicago Times, the leading cop
perhead organ of the West, and one Of
the rebel sheets suppressed during the
war, has turned its back upon President
johnson, and in long article in its issue
of the 18th comes out squarely for negro
suffrage. 1t declares negro suffrage inev-
liable and that the safety of; the Demo
cratic party depends upon its at once tax
ing measures to dispose of the whole ne
gro question now and for ever by the
adoption of the suffrage policy. 1t re-
mains to be seen whether the Democracy
at large will swallow the dose.

rRuE EVERY WORD.

The Democratic organ of Stark county
thus describes the cause of the defeat of
the party. We are glad to meet with
such a display of frankness and candor in
quarters where it is so rare:
"The defeat of the Democracy in this and the
adjoining States of Pennsylvania and Indiana is
the very same wave of fanaticism against which
we have been struggling for years. Itreceived
its start in New England years ago; and by
means of their schools, their chUrcheS and their
presses, aided by their swarms of active agents
in every corner of the country, it has continued
its swamping and overwhelming movement"
Fremont journal. [volume] (Fremont, Sandusky County [Ohio]) 1853-1866, 1866-11-16
.srHE LOCAL PRRss.n

The Toledo Commercial in an article OF
the Local Press, refers to the Fremont
Journal as paper that has illustrated tc
itself and its readers the value of the pol
icy of making home ne.Os speciality; and
taking an article from our local columns
for a text the COnR1erciaI delivers very
sensible and practical lecture in many re-
spects to country newspapers. We OBJ
serve, however, that it falls into the error,
so common to city journals, of belittling
country newspapers. "Give your readers
home news and nothing else" is the ad-
vice, too often patronizingly offered, to the
local press by the city papers. While it
is true that the events transpiring in its
own locality are of the first importance, it
is also true that newspaper cannot sue
ceed which neglects to keep its readers
posted in what is going on abroad. Out
side of towns and villages the daily paper,
with its mass of telegraphic news from all
quarters of the world, has limited circu-
laion. Farmers rely upon their County
paper to furnish them the news, and this
is done generally in an acceptable manner.
Country editors have the leisure to sift the
real news from the verbiage, and are thus
able to present weekly epitome of the
doings of the world. The news columns
of the country press are meaty. The rub
bish, husks and shells that cucumber the
news in dailies are stripped by the week
lies, and only the kernels preserved. Coun-
try papers are becoming more valuable
every year on this account They con-
dense and present in a convenient space
and shape in one issue everything Of real
Importance that has been printed in half
dozen numbers of the daily. The city
editor in his sanctum looking cursorily
over his tri-daily pile of exchanges and
semi-daily vOluminous telegraphic reports,
very likely regards the carefully prepared
summary of bis country cotemporary as
homeopathic doses of stale news" as
the Toledo Commercial characterizes it;
but the patrons of the paper regard it as
the essential feature. The city press
would also have their country brethrenig-
more politics, save as their own localities are
concerned. The discussion Of public ques-
tions gives character and influence TO a
journal, however obscure its location. The
magnificent majorities for the Right with
which the country overcomes the bad votes
of cities, may be pointed to as an ilustra-
ton of the influence of the country press.
In the matter of news, in the intelligent |
discussion of political and other public |
questions, in the quality and quantity of
family reading matter, noless than in the
matter of local news, the policy to pursue
on the part of Country publishers is to
covert the ground SO entirely and thorough
ly that the city daily shall not be neces-
sity within the limits of their circulation.

A SMGED HUNTsMAN.-The Philadel-
phia Gazette says, man by the name Of
O'Rourke on Saturday undertook to go
shooting. In reaching for his powder
flask he dropped it into a tub of water.
This by no means deferred him from en-
enjoying the half-holiday he had taken
from the foundry of North, Chase q
North, in which he is employed. He
poured the powder into frying pan and
dried it over the fire. The result can be
easily guessed at. Mr.. O'Rouke was blown
into the yard, with his head so singed
that he looked like a prize fighter. Luck
lily for him he received no bodily injury
His hair, beard and eyebrows were taken
off as closely as if by razor.

The Romano of Advertising.

1t is an old adage that many true things are
said in jest, and the remark may well be ap-
piled to the words of an old statesman who
said: @Show me the advertisements of any par
ticular people for any fixed period of time, and
l will tell you their history" Truth is strang-
er than fiction as we are taught every day in
the columns of every newspaper that is pub
lished, and the peru. al of the advertisements Of
any journal gives abundant scope for thought,
and ample mental food for the philosopher, The
novelist, and patriot, and even humorists; in
fact there is as much TO be learnt in the adver-
tisement sheet as there is in the more solid por-
tions of the daily journals. Truly, the adver-
tisements of people may well be said to con-
tain its history. The theory of the age is like
advice of Demonsthenes for achieving oratorcal
pOwer-''Action, action, action" To gain sue
cess in business, or anything else, we must ad-
vertise, advertise, advertise,-M r San.
