months Of his connection with the journal, has
satisfactorily proven that he knows how to ''run

which has always traded altogether with Charles
ton, and we need not tell our merchants that 1t IS
decidedly to their interest to make use OF the
Jottraa to advertise their wares.
MAYORS CoURT.-Tmss august tribunal was
comparatively deserted yesterday morning; the
docket was ,are, and few collections we're made.
Four irrelif ious characters who dwelt in different
parts of the city, were charged with the crime OF
notwithstanding. They were worshppers Oh
Mammon, and kept their establishments open'
thinking thst they might turn an honest penny
by selling few dings. Their sagacity proved to
be in flt, for instead Of receiving they were call
| cd upon to disgorge, and an done up IN greeenl el
was extracted from their pockets. They couldn't
see the point but concluded that their best policy
was to ante the required sum.

able portion Of King street, and he has, by study

most attractive in that neighborhood. Having

| To OUR; COUNTRY vIsrroRs-A number of per-
sons, both merchants and planters, are daily ar
irving in the city with the intention Of purchasing
| their fall and winter supplies. Many OF these
visitors are strangers, who are not acquainted
with the different business houses, and we take
pleasure in directing them to our advertising col
| umrs where will be found the cards OF the
| large wholesale and retail merchants. These
| parties advertise full and complete stocks,
which they are offering at prices In Keeping
with the times. They have every facility
| for conducting business, aid the public Will
find by personal inspection that their promises
are moro than fulfilled in the rich and varied as
sortment of goods they display in their establish
ments. To stranger there is no guide-book
! more correct no rule more sure, than the adver-
| tising columns of paper. Let him look to the
advertisers for bargains and his search will be re-
warded, for these conduct their business on the
principle of quick sales and small profits; they
circulate through the daily journals descriptions
and catalogues of their stocks, and their custom
ers are never victims Of misplaced confidence for
the liberal advertiser has been generally found
liberal il his dealings. Next to the news items,
the advertising column Of paper contain the
most information, and an attentive perusal will
enable the reader to judge of the business faci-
ties of the place, and he can then apply to those
parties whose notices have proved the most attrac-
tive.
