: One OF the Herald's own Articles.
The New York Herald has a charac-
teristically sensational article in re-
gard to the Pennsylvania United States
Senatorship. 1t rules all the. candi-
dates off the track but Simon Cameron,
and takes up fhe cudgel for that some
what notorious individual as follows:
'tThe Senator who ought TO be elected,
and who probably will be elected, is
Simon Cameron. He understands the
interests of his State better than any
other Pennsylvanian, and he can ad-
vance and improvet them better. Oflate
he has been a little radical in some of
his views, but hisradicalism is like the
nap on new pair of trowsers, and will
wear OH before long. AS a member of
President Lincoln's Cabinet he may,
fairly claim to be an exponent of Mr.,
Lincoln's policy. The only charge that
has been brought against him is that of
corruption; but we are satisfied that
there is a great deal of humbug abont
this accusation. - Simon Cameron's tor-
ruption consists in being true to his
friends, but sometimes his friends are
corrupt and. thus get him into trouble.
This was the case with Cummings, who
started a pious paper here upon tho,
profits of his contracts for straw hats,
linen pantaloons, fresh butter aud army
ale, porter and potted herring, all pur-
chased at Erastus Corning's hardware
store, at Albany, and Shipped upon ex-
traYagantly chartered steamers. The
father of Cummings was one Of the ear
LEST friends, of Simon COmeron, and
advanced him the money to enable him.
TO start in the printing business, For
this Cameron took solemn VOW that
he would never forget nor desert the
Cummings family, and when the son
of the elder Cummings came and asked
him for contract, he at once assented.
Gratitude Is too rare q virtue for us to
find fault with because It sometimes
led Mr.. Cameron into error. He is like
the Camerons of IIoetiel, who never
prove false to5a friend or a foe. We an-l
ticipate his easy election to the Senate .. +.

Dnnatinns Solicited

The Benevolent Association Of this coun-
ty is unwilling that we should be behind
others in our charities toward the manned
soldiers; and the ladies hope their efforts to
ameliorate the condition of our heroes may
be seconded by the eatire community. Do
nations are therefore solicited from every
man and woman who entertains a charitable
impulse toward these unfortunate braves.
1t is not important that these donations be
made in money exclusively. Anything will
be acceptable, "from a pound of wool to a
bale of cotton--from blooded terrier to a
blooded charger" The donations, no mat
ter what they are, or how trivial they may
be,>ean be converted into cash for the use
of the soldiers. 1t is hoped that our ciu-
zens will respond to this call in a spirit wor-
thy the liberal and patriotic people of Giles

RATES OF POSTAGE.

In consequence of the general ignorance in the
South of the rules of postage established by law,
many letters ofimportance are daily lost to those
interested by being improperly or insutieiently
stamped. The regulations require that all such let
tiers dropped into post offices shall be Immediately
forwarded to the Dead Letter office, where they arc
never heard from unless they contain money, or
other enclosures of value. We give below some in
formation which may prevent vexation to CORES
pCndents;
The rate of postage on letters within the United
States cents for every letter sealed package
Weighing one half ounce or under. Those over one
half ounce, cents and cents for every additional
half ounce Prepayment with stamps in all cases
is required. All letters without the necessary post
age stamps, which are stamped with revenue
stamps, VIII be forwarded to the Dead Letter Office
| Immediately after being dropped into any post
Office.
Postage stamps issued prior TO 1850 are worthless
and VIII not answer for present purposes.

Honest men are sometimes found in bad
company, and perhaps we have unintention-
ally done injustice TO one member of the A
bOve firm. We give him the benefit Of
columns for correction:
Memphis. April 18th, 1866,
SIR:-An article in your paper came un-
der my observation, in which you take up
on yourself the task of critcising the firm
of Cook, Becker $50 formerly of your city.
You do me gross injustice by remarking
that "they were birds of passage, and only
remained long enough to swindle the com
munity." By referring to the citiz ems you
will find that all my dealings were honest
and upright. What transpired after with
drew from the firm, am not responsible
for. 1 respectfully request that you make
the correction in your columns, and for
ward copy Of same to my address.
F. W. BECKER.
We would not do Mr.. Becker an injury.
Upon inquiry we find that he had withdraw
from the firm before their open rascality had
commenced.

Opinions of Distinguished Bust
ness Men


s'Advertise your business. Do not hide your
light under bushel. Whatever your calling or
occupation may be, if it needs support from the
public, advertise it thoroughly and efficiently in
some shape or other, that will arrest public after
ton. Iafreely confess that what success have had
in life may fairly be attributed more to the public
press than to nearly all the other causes combined.
There may possibly be occupations that DO not
ouire advertising, but l cannot well conceive what
they aIe.-P. 7. BARNU1I.
81 have always considered advertising literally
and long-to be the great medium success in bus
mess, and the prelude to wealth. And l have al
ways made it an invariab1e rule too, to advertise
in the dullest times long experience having taught
me that money thus spent is well laid out; as by
keeping my business continually before the public,
has secured me many sales that otherwise would
have lost."-STEPHEN GIRARD.
whatever success may have had in business
it good policy advertise long in the same papers.
From close observation am fully convinced that
It's impossible to make much Roadway ia any kind

me Contested ColIectorship.

The contested election case between H..
P. McMillion and H. H. Aymett was deci-
ded on Wednesday last before - Frier-
son Esq'r, of Columbia, who occupied the
bench temporarily, by consent of counsel, in
place of Judge Ward. The case, as report
ed to us, may be stated as follows: McMil-
lion was elected Tax Collector in March,
1864, but did not qualify and give bond I'M
til October, 1865, and he claimed that he
was entitled to hold the Office under that
section of the Act which provide that the
Tax Collector "shall continue in Office for
two years from the date ofhi qualification. J"
His counsel did not contest the validity of
Aymett's election in .Iarch last, but claim
ed that he could not enter upon the duties
of the Office until October, 1867, or two
years after McMilon's qualification.
Counsel on the Others side argued that in
his failure to qualify at the time prescribed
in a previous section of the same act above
referred to, Medallion forfeited the Office;
or at least forfeited or lost so much Of his
term 1.-TWO years as had'expired between
the time he should have qualified LIST Mon
day in April, 1861 and the time he did
qualify, list Monday in October, 1869
The Judge decided that McMilliou's term
expired at the end of two years from the
day he should have qualified, and that Ay-
NETT is now the Tax Collector, his term
having. commenced the 1st Monday in April.
