To Advertisers.

Tie Ne,r York Ne'rs is now taken
throughout the Southern States, and tho
nndisputed fact that it has larger circu-
lation in the South than the journals OF
the New York press combined, will insure
the attention of the commercial public and
the public generally.
Advertisers now availing themselves of
the opportunity to make known their busi-
ness through the columns of The Ne,o
York Ne,os, are convinced of the impor-
tance of its great circulation throughout
the South, in consequence OF the large
orders received by them, certify to the
value of this journal as the best medium
for advertising, and the public generally
depending upon publicity to secure an cx-
tension of business commensurate with
enterprise, should not fail to become ac-
qnainted with the unquestionable advan-
tagcs to be derived from announcing,

FNHE NEW YORK NEWS has battlea /,

tity OF the Constitution. patriotism ,uf.
hclently broad to embrace both sections
i,!:. has oeen lts only guide, and it refers now
that 1t has not turned to the right or the
left under all the violence of arbitrary
power. True to it's principles as THE
NEWS has been through the reign of ter
ror, 1t challenges public confidence in it,
honesty and independence for the future.
The political transition of the present
DAY opens to THE NEWS new and wider
held OF usefulness. Standing now. as II
always has, ON the inviolability Of the
constitution, according to the interpreta-
ton OF the strict constrnctionists, it pre-
sents rallying ground for all, in both Sec
tions who are friends of generous con
scrvat;sn As 3 true and tried exponent
OF sectional amity, it occupies a position
which makes it the fitting mediator in
holding up, to the party of order in both
sections, interests and principles that gave
breadth and vitality to their alliance. AS
an lntersectional agent, devoted to free
dom OF election, to trial by jury, to the
sanctity Of the hdbeds corpus, and opposed
now, as Tor four years Of terror it has been.
to the Capitalization tnat dares to trample
on, on inc ,,1SS Tights OF States. North or South,
THE NEWS places itself as candidate
Tor support before the great body OF this
once free people.
The circumstances OF the moment make
the dissemination OF the principles of THE
NEWS duty of individual patriotism.
Every man who concurs in its doctrine
must, If he entertain true sense of free
dom, do so in no spirit Of indifference. bat
rather with the earnestness OF high trust.
Justified-nay, bound in his love Of liber-
ty, to do so, the proprietor places the can
vass he makes here of the public generally
in the hands of those men who give him
the approval of their consciences as his in
dividual agents. Every reader of THE
NEWS cannot avoid the conviction of duty
which is here pointed out as the ground OF
the request, that he urges its claims for a
wider support upon all Of his friends and
nelghbors who give their earnest sympa-
thies to the cause of ssstrict construction.

calls, therefore, upon good and true con-
servatives throughout the country to dis
charge to their convictions of political
right at this great crisis in the countrys
fortunes, the duty Of giving to the ind
ence of his paper-daily, semi-weeklyo

seeks here through the service Of it's indi-

A writer in the New Orleans Chris
tian Adrocate, who has been making
some inquiry into tho matter, says
that so far as he has ascertained, be-
tween 1900 church houses were
burned during the war. These
churches, he thinks, had cost the
people not less than $5,OOO,OOO. In
the loss, the Methodists were the
greatest sufferers; the Baptists next;
then the Prcsbyterians; the Catholics
least.

Pfentence, the, witty Jupita,: tonans
of the iJeas'ndl, wafmly. defends tho
style OF hoops denounced by the New
York Jesuit, on the ground that it
enables the common people to see o
great deal moro Of society than has
been their privilege.
I'VE have thrown this and that to-
gether in this Writing reserviny
our own opinion; in obedience to
that good old German ndage: Speech
is silver, but silence is gold.
The very latest style of dress Ss
that adopted by the ladies of Lan-
sing, Michigan.
It is said to consist OF cloth pan Is
like those worn by men, and an old
fashioned Indian 'FWamprs" or sack,
which comes just above the knees.
The dressing hangs from the sheul-
ders, doing away with tight lacing,
and is alleged to be conducive to
health. By its adoption hoops and
skirts will be discarded. It decreases
the lady in quantity about 200 per
cent.
Now, ladies', those of you who have
fallen into the way Of these other
much-abused fashions, do please don't
adopt this last. Don't abandon your
first estate, by becoming heathens in
dress.

M1scEaENATIoN AND PURITAN PH1-
LANrHRoPY.-The Troy (Ncw York;
Wig tells the following story:
Some time since there was family
in Sandgate, VT, with sable black
man as husband, from fifty to fifty
five years old, and white woman,
some ten or fifteen years younger, ms
II wife, with four children, three of
whom were white and the fourth q
mulatto, the issue of this white and
black married couple. The woman
had been the wife of a white soldier,
who was killed in battle, and the
three children were the offspring of
this marriage.
The women was in bad health and
in the first stage of consumption.
The family became n town charge,
and had to be supported ut the cx-
pense of the people of Sandgate. The
cute Sangatians concluded, however,
not long to bear the load of their
support, and they accordingly for
warded this black and whitc family
to Chicago; where, having no means
of support, they became public
charge on the poor fund of that city.
The Chicago authorities inquired
into the facts about this family, and
learning the nature of the present
sent them 10y the Sandgate officials,
they Immediately started the family
back to the place from whence they
came, paying their railroad fare
hence. This family arrived in Troy,
on Saturday night, after the train had
gone North, and having no place to
stay, and no sufficient means to pay
a hotel bill, they applied to the Second
Police Station House for lodgings
and shelter, until they could take
their departure by this mornings
early Northern train.
The request was granted, and they
were guests at the Hotel de Police all
day yesterday. The woman is in
feeble health, and evidently has the
consumption, This whole affair is
little creditable to the humanitarians
of Sandgate, who seem. to prefer
sending their contributions to the
freedmen of the South, rather than
to expend them in taking care OF the
colored poor ut their own door.
