NEW ADVERTISEMENTS.
rNTEREsT1Nq TO hpYFRTIgERs

The following extract from a report or the pro-
esedings Of the N. y. state Editorial Convention.
holden at Penn Yam, Thursday, June 2l, is very
significant:
con the question OF Advertising Agencies, some
discussion was induced by a recommendation from
the Chairman Of the Committee on Agencies. that q
resolution be aioptsd, whereby publishers should
no lon ger be allowed to contract for space 30 be
filed with short miscellaneous advertisements,
subject to frequent changes. It was argued that
such course enabled agents So contracting to de
srk at greatly reduced rates, and 70 the prejudice
OF all other parties The firm of George P, Rowell
& Co., Of New York being regarded as the prinoi-
pal one which had adopted this system, and Ar.
Roweu being present in the Convention be was
called upon to reply to the charge Mr. s. M.
PettongiIl, also Of New YORK, remarked, in sub
stance that by this system, Messrs. Rowell Co.,
were enabled to contract for business at a much
lower rate than he could do, and claimed that the
publishers should in self defence cease - make
contracts in this way. Many present howeYo r
re cognized it as an advantage 70 be able thus TO
dispose Of fixed amount OF space to a responsible
party for a definite time since they thus obtained
q class Of business to be secured in no other way
and SIS a large number already had contracts Of
this nature with which they were sati SIZED, while
others had space TO spare and were willing to en-
tertain similar propositions, no action was taken
in the natter
The advantages secured to the advertiser By
this system OF contracting are truly very great.
Parties Interested are invited to send fer copy Of

In any trial of strength between An
drew johnson and the people Andrew
he may be sure Yet if there is any
man utterly blind to the events of the
day and alienated from the spirit and
purposes of his country, that man is the
President of the United Safes. He is as far
removed from sympathy with this ma
ton as is the Khan of Tartar, and fur
ther than the Emperor of Japan. In his
own land he is as 9 foreigner. He holds
the highest Office of the Union in the in
terest Of Rebellion, and the whole aim
of his policy seems to be to substitute
the defeat of the Union for the victory
to which it is entitled. There IS no man
who talks more Of the Union than he,
and none who does more to prevent its
peaceful reconstruction. 1t is his mis-
fortune that he has forgotten the Rebel
lion. Treason, to him, is neither
crime nor right; the secession of ten
States gives to the Government no con-
troll over their reorganization Con-
gress, representing the loyal people of
tWenty-sfx States, is pOWerless to pre-
vent the rule of a majority of Rebels.
Yet, few years ago Andrew johnson
led the band of extreme men who de-
manded that treason should be eXpiated
by death, who proposed the gaIlOWs as
the solution of all National difficulties;
and there have been no acts as arbitra-
ry as his when singly, and without con-
suItatIon with Congress, he took the
whole business of reconstruction on
himself. By what miracle these eX-
tremes have been reconciled it is useless !
to ask it is enough that Andrew john
son, in the Presidency of the United
states, is now the worst foe of the peO-
pie who placed him there. At. peace |
with the whole world, we are at war
with him.
We, who put down the Rebellion, have |
the right to dictate terms to conqured /
rebels. Who denies the right? Not |
the rebels. When they laid down their |
arms to Grant, and Sherman, and Sher- |

THE 2 ACIFIC RAILROAD.-The GGtary
for August, contains an article on this
magnificent enterprise, from which we
make the following extract showing
what an immense. revolution viii be
wroughtin the worlds commerce by
its completion
And who can measure now the effect
upon our commerce of the completion
of this road bringing as il will New
York within three or four W eeks Of the
thousand-island kingdom of Japan,
with its opening ports, and within a
month Of China, with its present reaIlU-
les and its future possibilities of export
and import The English merchants
viii then find from two to three thou
sand miles of distance saved in sending
their freight this way to Canton or Yed-
do, in preference to their shortest route
to the east, that by way of the Suez
Canal ; and the saving in time to trav-
eIlerS will be even more considerable.
Our nearest port, San FrancscO, will be
within less than five thousand miles
of Canton and Yeddo, while Liverpool
vessels, by way Oftbe SueZ Canal, have
before them journey of from twelve
to fourteen thousand miles. We shall
be nearer even to the British islands of
Australia and it is a noticeable fact
that the side of the island upon which
settlements nave DCe0 made lies away
from England and toward US. China
and Japan, too, turn their back upon
Europe and face toward America, and
we confront each other across the Paci-
fic Ocean, which, as it passes from the
old continent to the new, invites the
most ancient civilization to intercourse
with the youngest brother of the sun
and moon.
With the recollection of the past half
century of progress toward freer inter
course between nation and nation in
mind, what man dare limit the pOssi-
bilities that open before us, with our
coming Introduction to those countries
embracing so large a proportion of the
thousand million workers and consul
mers who populate the earth The
changes which are at work among the
Asiatic peoples are revealing themselves
daily Already the juggIers of Japan
amuse our leisule e, and the handiWOrk
Of their skilful artisans adorns our
houses, while their painters startle our
artists with new ideas of colOring and
visions of a new school af art. Already
the stOlid Cinnamon have caught the
infection of American emigration and
are peOpling the western slopes of the
Rocky Mountains by the thousands
and the ten thousands. Who then can
tell what changes are to come in that
future which opens before US with the
promised completion of the Pacific
Railroad in the year of grace 1870?

1t has not been a common thing for
any country to have a political party
entirely destitute Of principles. Yet
such is the condition to-day Of the
American Democracy. It processes 10
have platforms, but they consist Of
aguegeneralities and do not propose an
Intelligent solution to a single one OF
our national questions. 1--WE are opPos-
ed to W whatever you are in favor or is the
sum total Of Democratic doctrine The
party advances no positive or practical
measures. Tt adheres to dead issues
and quarrels about the effete- carcasses
Of slavery and secession. It arrays it.
self against every plan of reconstruc-
tiou and finance, and yet proposes no
definite plan as substitute. Yes,
there is one exception. The Democrats
of Richlaud and Delaware counties
have invented "a scheme to relieve our
financial difficulties. They propose to
pay the ''bond holders" i" that is, the in
diyiduals who hold bonds for money
lent the Government in time of its peril
to pay these persons iu greenbaczs.
They propose to food the country with
about TWO and a half billion dOIlSrs Of
irredeemab BILE paper currency and send
up gold to a premium Of about five hum
dred per cent What a brilliant
scheme It would make money as
plenty RS it was in the South during
the wsr and just about as worthless.
Every laboring man would enjoy the
luxury of having his pockets stuffed
with greenbacI1s and also Of paying
from seventy 10 "A hundred dollars
for barrel Of flour. What a green
back millennium there would bel
And all brought about by Demo-
cratic genius And that the genius
of Delaware and RichIand counties!
We are not aware the Democracy in
other localities are falling in with
this scheme, but it ought to be patented
or the copyright secured. Thus much
glory at least belongs to the inventors.

JUSTICE To MEXICO-It is reported
this morning, that the body of Maxi
milan is ready to be delivered to the
Austrian messenger sent for it.
No person OF judgment doubted that
this would be done but the public
mind has been greatly abused and mis-
led by the prepOsterous misrepresenta-
tiOns and false reports in regard to the
actions and inclinatiOns' of the victor
iOus liberal leaders, of INSCRIPTIONS

tempt at conquest. ''Mexican news"
has come almost entirely, for months,
through such channels and, of course,
the motives, acts and intentions of the
Mexican government nave been per
sistently nisrepreseBted.
There are signs that the public mind
is awakening to this fact, and begins to
think more justly of the republicans of
Mexico than it did but a short time ago.
For instance, the Tribune, which has
savagely denounced the Mexican gov
ernment, this morning contains an arti-
Gle which does justice to the spirit and
policy Of the liberal party.
We have no doubt that one day his
tory viii do justice between the ATexi-
cans and their ruthless invaders, as well
as between the patriotic government
and the traitOrOus prelates who invoked
desOlatiOn upon their country rather
than lose their powers of oppression
and mischief. When the final
awards Of history come to be made up
in regard to the conflicts of the present
age, between rational and constitution

uprlghtness and practical wisdom than

When the exigencies of the war ne
cessitaUed the issue of greenbaek cur
rency, Democratic politicians studious-
~ worked to make the public believe
that It would in q short time be as
worthless as Confederate shinpIasters-
The wish was doubtless father TO the
thought, but thanks To our victorious
armies, the prediction was not verified.
But the fiendish determination TO ac-
complish, our finaRcial, and through that
our political ruin is not yet extinct, and
the President and the Democracy. seem
to be cooperating in an effort to create
depression and embarrassment in the
finances. There is certainly "a wide
field here for mischief but is not he
monstrous sort or "a patriot who would
take advantage Of it or exult in it
Why does the Democraticpartyd demand
that the public faith shall be violated,
the national securities paid in green
backs and the country deluged with a
worthless currency, II its purpose is
not to accomplish practical repudiadOn?
And why is repudiation desired II it is
not for the purpose OF P1sHiSliHg those
whose confidence in and support OF the
governments has been manifested by
furnishing it the means TO carry on the
war +? We hear much about bonded
aristocracy'' and a ''shoddy aristocracy''
but if there are such aristOcracies who
created them Were they not the out
growth OF a war gotten uD by Demo-
Gratis ? Aristocraey or no rristOcracy
the national seeuities are sacred pledges
which we are soIemn1y bound TO fulfill,
and which can in no manner be evaded
without a shameful violation Of faith
which must essentially damage our
credit for all future time. We must
meet our obligations dollar for dollar
and religiously avoid the P,7sica J5des
Of reputation proposed by the Democ-
racy if we desire ever TO be trusted
again at home OF abroad.

1T HURTs.-It hurts our Democratic
neighbOrs when they are told that their
party commenced the war. This is r true
charge. Old Jim Buchanan was the
Democratic President whose whole tad-
ministration was cotrolled by the con-
spiratOrs. All the leaders in the rebel
army we're Democrats. All the civil Of
fcers in the so-called Confederate States
were Dem mocrats. The bulk of the sol
diers in the rebel army were Democrats
tnen why not call the war a Democrat
lie war There was not a single Abo-
HtiOn State concerned in the rebellion.
Not a single Abolitionist was in Con-
federate Office. Not a single Abolition
tst could be found among the 'Confeder-
ate soldiers. Abolitionists did not re-
bel nor do they yet. The whole perfor-
nance from beginning to ending. was a

THE ECoILECTION, IND
WASHING OF REVENUE STAM HIPS.
TREASURY DEPARTMENT, OFFICE ORR
INTERNAL REVENUE.
WASHINGTON. d. O. ,TT7Ivv q 1857

Il Is reported that persons IN various parts
OF the country are engaged in collecting can
ceIIed revenue stamps and peparing them
for further use by removing the cancelling
marks, regumming, &c. These collections
are made, to a great extent, from AMONGST
the waste paper of banks, bankers and bro
kers. Checks, drafts, &c, when they have
ceased to be valuable as instruments of evil
dence, and especially bills or memoranda of
sales or the contracts for sale of stocks. gold
or silver bullion, coin, bonds, prOmisOry
notes. dEe., are generally cast aside with the
cancelled stamps attached, and thus the
stamps readily fall into the hands Of those
who sock them for fraudulent purposes,
Bankers, brokers, and all others are earn
estly- requested to destroy their revenue
stamps after they have once been used and
have ceased to be of value to them. Bank
Examiners also are requested to call The. at
tentton Of bankers to the gross frauds that
are practiced upon the public revenue in
this way. And all Internal Revenue Offieers
are hereby directed and enjOined TO give this
matter their especial attention, and to {Irge
such a disposal of cancelled stamps as shall
protect the United States from loss
The fact Of q person collecting such stamps
is SUFFICIENT to arouse strong suspicion and TO
call for immediate Investigation; while the
possession of washed, restored or altered
stamps is oTtH1d fdcte evidence Of guilt.
No pains should be spared to effect the de-
gecJlon OF the guilty parties and to insure
their punishment as provided in section 1856
OF the Internal Revenue Act.
