Value Of Advertising,

Notoriety or publicity is an indispcnsa-
BILE element of success i'll the merchant,
mechanic or manufacturer, who would give
speedy and wide distribution to the com
modities and productions which he seeks to
exchange for money, He may have capi-
tai, skill, convenient position, punctuality,
industry and honesty-cvery possible fit
ness for his business-and all is nothing
if he have not sufficient notoriety. This
noturiety, let it cost more or less, he must
purchase or provide for as carefully as he
purchases or manufactures his stock of
goods. And it must in extent bear a GER
tain relation to the business he would do
1t must be both positive and comparative.
People must not only know him and his
business, because otherwise they will not
find him, but they must know him, because
otherwise they wiN find and trade with
those who are better known. = Customers,
like sheep, are grcgarious, and flock where
they see others focking. IF nobody else
were engaged in the same business, it
would be important for our dealers to ad-
vertise in the newspapers, because people
are tempted to buy what they read Of. II
is like having a salesman with several
thousands Of voices, speaking politely Of
your wares to tens of thousands of peo.
pie, perhaps at the same moment, never
offending, never obtrusive, never tired
such a salesman might be worth one, two
three or five thousand dollars year tc
you, according to the number of his voices
But if others are engaged in the same
business, even if they do not advertise, il
becomes the more important for our deal
ers to do so, and if they do advertise, it i,
doubly important. 1t is, in fact, ruin no
to be known as extensively as our rivals
1t is the food-tide of fortune to be tn,
most extensively known.

Why SO Many spiasters =

Some of the English periodicals are re-
viving discussion which, three years ago,
for several weeks, was leading topic for
the London journals and magazines. The
North British Reyie,o thinks that, accord
ing to the census returns, there ought to
be but 400, 900 unmarried women between
the ages Of twenty and forty, whereas
there are ,230, Quo, and as the working
classes and peasants nearly all marry and
marry young, workingmen finding no diff
ticulty in getting husbands for their daugh-
ters, the surplus spinsters are among the
niger classes, and thousands of young men
who refuse to marry are those having in
comes OF G300 to ESU0 year, who pre-
fer their " liberty and the support this
sum gives them to the risk of sharing their
income with wife. But this is not all !;
there is the old story of the terrible extrav-
agance of the women; the modest maiden
suddenly blooms into the most magnificent
of matrons; unbounded in expenditure,
they fiirt more industriously, waltz more
violently, and dress more outrageously.
Even the Spectator, which makes a mild
defense OF the young women of England
against the charges of the writer's in the
North British Reviep and Frozer, is COM
PEELED to admit that there is an alarmingly
large class of such women, and that there
is among men growing contempt, not only
for matrimony, but for women themselves.
Among the few remedies suggested are OPP
portunities for freer social intercourse the
advantage of seeing women elsewhere
than at the ball and opera, so that man
can learn something of the actual habits
and disposition of the persons whose hand
he might be disposed to seek, and thus be
able to see the difference between the real
woman and the woman of the ballroom.
As it is, it is a lottery in which many fear
| to venture.

Dull TINES. There is very general
complaint of dull times, a, falling off in
trade, scarity of money, &c. Some per-
sons are desponding, and predicting still
further prostration. We think a'better
feeling will prevail after the first of the
year. Every one should make it a point
to pay the amount of his indebtness, az by
SO doing healthy impetus will be given
to trade. There is no good reason why
our country should not be highly prosper
Gus, as every product commands good
price, and the laborer receives high wages
The money market will certainly become
easier in very short time. The amount
of gold which the Government will shortly
put in circulation viii exert a very salutary
influence. The Banks will discount more
freely, and the rates demanded for loans
must materially decline. So says the Dcl-
aaoare Republican.

amount of currency is uselessly locked up
in this way, far more than people would
generally imagine. There can be no doubt
that to-day, where much larger volume
of currency is required, the per capita a
mount is actually far less than it is in Eng
land, where the principal circulating me-
dunn is coin.
NJ In France the metallic circulation, ac-
cording to Moran. is $40 per capita.
The Encyclopedia Brttanaica placed it
some years ago at $14O, ,000,0 Levas-
seur and others estimated it at $3.50, 900,
900, which it has undoubtedly reached by
this time. This would give for a popula-
ton, of 81, 900, 900 a per capita Of over
800. Last month the note circulation OF
the Bank Of France was more than S225,
600, 900, which gives note circulation Of
more than So per capita. So that the to-
tai circulation of France is more than $26
for each individual rather in excess of that
in England.
We call these facts to the very serious
attention of the public, and we ask what
sense and what reason there is in the fur
ther diminution of a currency which is alb
solutely now too contracted for the wants
of the community ?-Bdlttmore Gazette.

The soldier. Of rs1a.

We see by the Philadelphia papers that
the soldiers of 1872, are to meet on the
Sth Of january at Independence Hall, to
celebrate the anniversary Of the Battle Of
New Orleans, as has been their custom
for years. Congress seems to have for
gotten the services of these old veterans
that they fought and conquered the British
upon the sea and upon the lakes; that they
whipped the proud armies of Wellington
at Fort George Lundy's Lame, Bridgewa-
ter, Plattsburg, Fort Erie, Stonington,
Baltimore, Caulk's Field, and divers other
places, and finally annihilated them before
New Orleans, under the leadership Of gall
liant Old Hickory.
Congress has forgotten that it was these
same old veterans, their sons and grand
sons, who paid off the Revolutionary war
debt, and the debt of the war of 1912,
and who have brought the country up to
its present position of strength and power,
when it may defy the world in arms.
There are but few of these old veterans
left, VIC understand, in Delaware-Capt.
Maxwell, of Delaware City; r. Lockwood,
John Jones, and John Thomas, of New
Castle county, and one other in Sussex.
We learn that Maj. Jones intends to join
his associates in Philadelphia on the occa-

The Presidential Election.


The New York Times (Republican) in
commenting upon the probable result of
the next Presidential election, uses the
following significant language:
As things stand to-day, with universal
negro suffrage to be forced upon the
Southern States by military power as the
condition of their restoration to the Union,
and in the uncertain tone and temper of the
Republican party on the financial questions
before the country, the prospect" of a
Republican defeat is not only " reasonable
but it may be called brilliant. What Con-
gress may do to change itremains to be
seen; but if the National Convention takes
up the party just where it stands now-ii
it adopts Radical platform and nominates
a Radical candidate-we venture the pre-
diction that it will be beaten more disas.

than the Democrats were in 1860. Maine

KENT County RAILRoAD.-We under
stand that at the last meeting of the Direc-
tors of the Kent County Railroad Company
they fixed the western terminus of the
road at Deep Landing, on Swan Creek
where is to be found the boldest waters,
and where a very short wharf will only be
necessary, thus lessening the expense. A
wharf on the bay shore was estimated to
cost at least $35, 200. The board took
steps to procure an immediate survey of the
remaining part of the route, and to adver-
tise for proposals to build the road. 1t now
remains with the landowners through which
it is proposed to pass to have road or not.
If their demands are exorbitant, there will
not be money sufficient to construct the
road.

Some time ago it was publicly an
nounced that disagreement had occurred
between Senator Sumner and his wife, but
a portion of the press at once contradicted
the story. Last week the Home Journal
settled the matter in this wise:
We have good authority for stating that
the differences betwee Mr.. and Mrs.
Charles Summer, which have caused SO
much unpleasant gossip and scandal, have
been finally settled by a permanent separ-
alton, with the mutual consent and desire
Of both parties and their best friends.
The direct cause of this separation is simply
the certainty-discoyered only too late
that there exist between the parties an in
compatibility of temperament and opinion
upon certain social questions, which pre-
cludes the possibility of their living hap
PLY together as man and wife.

Messrs. Edttors-Thinking that some
thing from this part of the county would
help to fill up the first issue of the Mid
dletown Transcript, take the liberty of
sending you few lines. The new year
opens cold and stormy, which is not sur
prising, when we consider the appearance
of the last day of 1867, which was very
cold, and closed with brisk fall of snow.
The people of this hundred are waking up
to the Importance of improving their land

term, for commission to lay out public
ditch up Blackbird branch, and notwith-
standing the cold of yesterday, the indus
trious and public-spirited gentlemen Sc
lected as commissioners, viz. Nathaniel
Williams, H. P. Reading and VIM. s.

great benefit. More anon.

threw little girl, two years old, out of a
side door of the car, which had been left
open. The horror-strieken parents imme-

back expecting to pick up the mangled re-
mains of the child. The little one met them
half way, however, unharmed, and evident
ly thinking the whole affair a good joke. AT
the time the child fell off, the train was on
a down grade, and running twenty miles
