them to the business men of the country t7,

The man that adv srtses most, does the most bnsi4

time. know merchant in this district who has
imported three different patches of goods within q
year from Europe, and now he's nearly sold out
again. How does he and his partner get rid Of 90
many goods 2 They advertise more than all the
rest put together-thats how l viii prove il.
II you want to borrow money-if you want to lend
m0ney-if you want to rout farIn--if you have
one to sell l-advertise. II y0nr horse, COW, pigs
colt, sheep hr oxen go astrhy advertise them right
of, and not run chance of losing them altogether,
or having to pay MS much as they are worth IN
charges for keeping. IF you are a shoemaker,
tailor, blacksmith, wagon -maker or any kind Of
mechanic, show people that you are not ashamed
of being a mechanic by advertising. IL you keep
a hotel make it known. When people see. man
advertise, they know he is business man. Ths
world is full of folks who want. Some want IN
sell, some want to buy, and the only way 10 meet
these wants and make money is to advertise. Ad-

Thrilling Escape from am Ice.
Ia EME

! The steamer Scotia which sailed from
| New York, May the 2Tth, met with mar.
row escape, which is thus described bv a
passenger III aletter to the Boston Sdturi0v
| Gazette.
"On the Sunday after leaving port, at 10
! o'clock A. NJ, saw u large icoherg on our
lee bow half "A mile distant, but quite near
enough to satisfy the many whu had ex.
pressed great desire to see one of the
wondcrs of the Arctic regions, the terror of
the sea to all sailors hut how little did
they think what imminent danger was ap.
proaching us from this source OF their great
curiosity. Soon after IL o'clock NJ. the
fog was so thick as TO cut off all sight be.
yond the ships leugth; the sailors on "look,
out gave sudden alarm Of an iceberg dead
ahead and almost under the bows OF the
ship. The signal whistle of danger was
sounded instantly while the first officer
who was on deck, cried in u voice of thun-
der: llard-aport, hard-aport your helm, :"
but another officer, in the confusion of the
moment, who probably took another view
of our danger, sung out, "Starboard, hard
to the starboard.' Meanwhile the cap
tain was engaged in signaling the engineer to
" stop her, y" back, aud other impatient or
! ders which were skiIlfuly and fapidlyoi eyed
it, so completely checking our speed that
the striking of the ship against the noun
tain Of solid ice scarcely Scared the black
paint on the ships port bow, and snrging
alongside the ponderOus ana gigantic mass,
il came quite near enough to the quarter
deck to satisfy every beloljer, for it could
be touched with comihcn boating oar. As
wo opened the distance, and the danger
passed, there was never seen before such a
shipload of thankful, grateful souls, as rem
dered up thoir praise to Him who had
! vouchsaIed them their great dellverance.
When the iceberg was first discovered we
were on deck and quite near the forward
smoke stack, and as We were looking for
ward, saw the approaching danger quite as
soon as the sailors on tie loo out, The
sight was such as TO FIJI our hearts with
fear, and the horror with which We in
stantly realized our awful situation can
neither be imagined nor describe. Our
complete destruction seemed inevitable.
! So near were we to the iceberg that it ap.
! peared the ship would strike il and siuk
before the passengers could run ait, which
| they all commenced to do, being IS anxious
! to get as far from the cohcussion as posi-
bic. Not one on board who saw the
danger but fully concluded we We're
lost, Had ten seconds been lost in the
discovery no power could have saved us.
Boats or life preservers wdnld have been
Of little avail. We should have been lost
and gone ere this to our graves in the sea
and not soul saved of our goodly five hun
