Ashrewd business man will, therefore, sec
to it that his advertisement is duly inserted
in one of the Democratic papers-it makes
little difference which--and then, in order
to reach his Republican customers, he will
be very sure to order it published in the
REPUBLICAN. For some descriptions o.
advertising, an advertisement in this paper
would be worth more than the same in all
the Camp street papers.
Advertisements are source of profit to
the proprietor of a newspaper, but are Of
greater benefit to the advertiser. Our mer-
chants do not seem to understand this
question 30 well as the sharp, energetic,
go-ahead men of New York, Boston, Pbila.
delphia, Cincinnati, Chicago and elsewhere.
They do not, therefore, make such progress
on the road to wealth. Unless there is a
general waking up to signs of the times
before long, we shall be at least a half cen.

HOW TO ADVERTISE.

One of the most potent auxiliaries to
commerce is knowledge. Information
should not only be widely disseminated,
but it should be brought to the every day
attention of the world at large. 1t has be-
come the custom with the American people
to depend largely upon their daily
paper as guide in the various
transactions of the day. For instance,
if small dealer, mechanic, hotel keeper
housekeer, or any other member of the
human family, require an article out of the
usual routine, the first thing done is to
consult the daily paper. In its columns
can be found the time and place for the
sale at auction of all articles of merchan-
disc, real estate, stocks etc., from a house
and lot to a spool of dam
aged thread. The departures of
steamers and ships, the business of
the theatres and operas, the names and To-
cations of merchants, hotels, boarding
houses, ETC.; notices of meetings, market
quotations, and the endless varieties of
busy lite, are published from time to time
in the paper. The man who does not adj
vertise at all is generally apt to fall behind
more enterprising rivals who do SO, and he
deserves to lose caste.
But there are two classes of customers
for the merchant and all others doing bust
ness, the success of which depends upon
public patronage. These classes are divided
by political questions. The Democrat, for
instance, looks in the Picdpne or Crescent
for the necessary intelligence, while
the Republican depends upon the
paper of his choice. There are five daily
papers published in New Orleans in
English, all purportlng to be of the most
orthodox Democratic persuasion. AS a
rule, the few citizens Of that faith who are in
the habit Of reading, take or see them all.
An average Of three to each reader is not an
over estimate. These papers, then,
actually follow each others tracks
around the CITY. all telling The same storv

From the testimony of Judge J. B,
Robertson, given in the Opelousas railroad
case, before Judge Durell, we learn that
some time last summer Judge Robertson
and Mr.. W. s. Pike, as a committee ap-
pointed by the Directors Of the road, went
North to effect sale or lease of the road
and that I" capitalists siad they would not
invest unless General Grant was elected,
although satisfied it would certainly be the
best paying stock in the country as long as
the country was quiet"
This is what every intelligent. unpreiu-
diced man in this city knew was the course
adopted by the moneyed men of the North.
1t was proclaimed by every Republican.
speaker and editor. The answer of the
capitalists showed that money was timid
in coming South, and that the Northern
mind was satisfied there could be no peace
IN the South unless Grant was elected.
Why did not Messrs. Robertson and Pike
publish the result of their trip? They
could have impaired knowledge to a class
of people sadly in need of it. By doing SO
Mr.. Pike could have compensated, to some
slight extent, for having affixed his honor
able name to the infamous ordinance of
secession. However, Grant is elected:
railroads will be built; and we will all re-

TIE DIVISION OF TEXAS

We are all aware that in area and unde-
veloped resources Texas is truly the En-
pire State of the Union. Texas is almost
equal in extent to the Austrian Empire.
and is undoubtedly capable of sustaining a
population of 100000. And this great
State is as yet not restored TO her former
relations to the American Union. The
question Of the division of Texas is one
which will probably soon claim the atten-
ton Of Congress and the State Convention,
both of which will be in session in a few
days. The present is the proper time for
the division, if it is to be accomplished at
all. 1t is the growing impression in Texas,
that the division is inevitable for the fol-
lowing reasons: E-#
= In the first place the interests of the peo-
pie in the two natural sections of the State
are essentially different. East of the Brazos
the country is mainly timbered; west Of
that stream it is chiefly prairie. Many laws
applicable to the stockraisers of Western
Texas would be inapplicable to the agri-
culturists of the eastern section.
But the main argument in favor OF a
division is the difference Of sentiment exist
ing between the two sections. Western
Texas would vote to-day by large major
ity for a Republican constitution, but in
Eastern Texas it is very doubtful if single
vote for such constitution would be per-
mitted in many counties. It is probable
therefore that Western Texas would be
permitted to form a constitution and a
State government of her own. Eastern
Texas could then be kept under judicious
military control until reason should resume
her sway, which would speedily be the case
when the necessity became apparent Of
acquiescence in the will of the nation as
represented by Congress.
1t is certain that emigration to Texas
wil for some years be chiefly confined to
the Western section, for several reasons.
One reason Is that immigrants will natur-
ally seek those localities where they can
live free from prescription and violence;
another is that prairie country always
settles more rapidly than forest country. as
has been fully exempHned in the great West.
The rapid settlement Of Western Texas by
loyal and enterprising people viii soon

for restoration 10 the Union.

We visited the Mechanics Institute tbi,
morning and found, contrary to our expec.
tations, that there is good deal of work
still going on there. In the room occupied
by the Enrolment Committee during the
last session of the Legislature we found
about thirty persons-all young, fine look
ing fellows-driving ahead at railroad
speed, making copies of the original books
OF registration for each parish of this State.
BY an order of the chairman ;of the Board
OF Registration each person employed
on this work is Ereeuired to write
thirty pages a day, and ii takes a
skilltul penman to do this in
the style that is required. 1t frequently
requires more than ten hours to do this
much work, and as ten hours are copsid-
cred lawful days work in all civilized
and republican countries, the Chairman sf
the Board of Registration is consid cred a
hard taskmaster by those over whom be
cracks his whip. 1t is expected that this
work will be completed by the fifteenth of
next month. There are also at work in
the Institute the Committees on the
Conduct of the Elections, on Charitable
Associations, and Contingent Exp enses.
The quiet peaceful appearance of things
about this building, which is not without it's
historical "reminiscences, would lead the
oasser-by to suppose that its spacious
apartments were entirely deserted. But
his is not SO, for the Governor has his
'ffice in this building and the Secretary of
state may be found in a room contiguous
o the Governors rooms, both pursuing the
important and arduOus duties appertaining
o their civil functions.
